Johnette Napolitano's voice usually works for me, but not here. Plus, I love the original so much, this just seems wrong (and unncessary).
The # of covers of "The Scientist" have really gotten out of hand. At this rate it may eclipse "Yesterday" in a few more years and Coldplay /= The Beatles.
There were a couple of neutral comments - that had nothing to do with the quality of the song - and ALL the rest were negative. The Listeners have spoken.
Make it stop!... or at least get that singer a throat lozenge. Please don't make me go back to the start!

yup.
I have never heard a song on RP that was worthy of a 0 rating -- until now! I just want to know what the producers were smoking (or snorting) when they decided to produce this!

I'll stick with the original. Nobody ever said it would this hard to make a decent cover.
LOL!
maybe it sounded better on the big screen..... nah.
Is this a joke?
Some covers improve on the originals; others make you go "Huh?'
I'll stick with the original. Nobody ever said it would this hard to make a decent cover.
I'll admit to actually kind of liking coldplay, but sorry kids, their original of this tune is already pasty enough - we don't need an even pastier version. Try again in 20 years - but thanks for playing!
Sorry, but this is a terrible rendition of a good song and truly deserving of my Sucko-barfo rating.

No way, this is a man singing.....isn't it!?
What da... better to wake up fully before you try to sing, eh?
This is freeking terrible. It's such a shame for (her...him?) to "sing".
What's with the proliferation of awful covers of this song? (See also Mann, Aimee . . . )

The important question, did you need to say it twice?
This is erroneous! It's a disgrace to Coldplay.
This sucks!

Has everyone covered this song? I've even heard an a capella arrangement by Stanford Mixed Company.
