Apparently James Reid had not finished writing the lyrics for "Hold Out" when Matt and Indira turned up to record their versions of the single.
Earlier rumours we heard of the recording being a "hideous" process are not an overstatement juding by some of the things I'm hearing........
Is he the one who writes all of the Feelers stuff?
Yup.
I love the Feelers he's a great song writer! I mean i understand why you would'nt like him now because of what he did to the idols but why did you hate him before?
I didn't have an opinion of him before this experience -- maybe you're confusing me with someone else?
The critic me thinks
he's music industry trash - plain and simple. There are arrogant musicians and then there's mr reid. I've seen him perform shows with his back to the audience the entire time. Complete and utter disrespect to the fans that pay for his 'habits'.
No wonder it repeats so much
That's why each line is the same after the first part, he didn't have time to write anything else!
Sound pretty pathetic though - most unprofessional for something as the reward from the main TV company in the country!
unprofessional?!
HAHAHahahahaha
you know that he won a Tui for Best Songwriter, right?
personally, I think it was the best practical joke ever
who is James Reid??
The guy who wrote Matt's single ... oh, what was it called?! ... erm, Hold Up, or something
yea i know that but who is he??
Google Him
ill do that
Ah well, I guess it's just what we've come to expect from the farce that is NZ Idol!!! :|
AND he was completely pi**ed and abusive to both of them.
:S And I heard the recording "studio" wasn't really one - it was in someone's semi-converted apartment and hadn't been cleaned at all.
yes.. rockstars rolling around in their own filth...
I wouldnt call them stars :S
(in their own eyes)
