This is one of REM’s biggest gems. I have to admit I don’t listen to it as often as I do because I feel it’s depressing and the mood has to be right to match it. Haha! I was particularly interested in this song, to see how Simon Cowell roped in 21 different singers to lend their voices, and one of them, my favorite, Jon Bon Jovi, rocked his only line, “Don’t throw your hand” during its bridge. That made my day because you can instantly recognize him with his rock delivery.
You wanna read who sang what?
Leona Lewis: When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
Rod Stewart: When you’re sure you’ve had enough of this life, well hang on
Mariah Carey: Don’t let yourself go, ’cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes
Cheryl Cole: Sometimes everything is wrong.
Mika: Now it’s time to sing along
Michael Buble: When your day is night alone,
Joe McElderry: (hold on, hold on)
Miley Cyrus: If you feel like letting go
James Blunt: If you think you’ve had too much of this, well hang on..
Gary Barlow: ‘Cause everybody hurts..
Mark Owen: Take Comfort in your friends
Jon Bon Jovi: Don’t throw your hand
James Morrison: Don’t throw your hand
Alexandra Burke and James Morrison : If you feel like you’re alone, no, no, no, you are not alone
Susan Boyle: If you’re on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
Aston Merrygold: When you think you’ve had too much of this life to
Marvin Humes: hang on
Shane Filan (Westlife): Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Mark Feehily (Westlife): Everybody cries
Kylie Minogue and Robbie Williams: And everybody hurts sometimes

Total agreeance on the reason why I don’t listen to the original as much (this song is like the anthem of Clinical Depression). I have to admit that I initially thought the song was going to suck.. but it actually sounds really good.

claire bennet – Haha.
Izad – Ya man! Although I don’t think it’ll last in my playlist that long. Looking forward to “We Are the World” remake.
