5.0 out of 5 stars The Climb
Excellent song and vocals this boy should go far. We are glad that he won Xfactor and hope to continue to hear him in the future. highly recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars A cover
I don't actually think it's that a bad song, I mean it is incredibly cheesy, but actually not terrible. But for heavens sake - it's a cover of a song that was released this year! Miley Cyrus did it for Hannah Montana the movie. Wiki it. I listened to both versions and I do prefer Joe's voice but he doesn't really add anything to the song, he sings it in exactly the same...

Joe deserved to win x factor,it was a good boost for the North East who are suffering the most in this current economic climate. I hope Joe goes far.

5.0 out of 5 stars a little star in the making, 20 Jan 2010
This review is from: The Climb (MP3 Download)
I just love this boy's voice it's so easy to listen too. I look forward to his first album and hope all this Simon Cowell rubbish has gone away by then. He deserves a chance after all the flack at Christmas he isn't to blame for Mr Cowells antics

I just think it's a bit embarrassing. If people hadn't watched the xfactor and listened to all the sob stories they wouldn't be buying this... People are buying this not on musical merit but on liking a person's story/personality/image. Sad times for music indeed...

1.0 out of 5 stars Great singer, awful song., 15 Dec 2009

Being able to sing well is a very important part of music, but it makes up a small fraction of what constitutes quality. This song is simply terrible, and as a big supporter of Xfactor, I'm so dissapointed. Joe can sing, but this song is awful, in so many ways. I'd give it 1 star because he has a good voice. The other 4 are missing because this song is pitiful. Buy something else from amazon, and save yourself a little money. Rage Against The Machine have quite a good single in the charts that I'd recommend.

REALLY????!!! I think it's really great the winner gets to release a single but why this? it's like they want this kid to be forgotten instantly. Is Simon Cowell just trying to see how bland and monotonous the x-factor single can be and for it to still be really successful. I'm tired of this....buy Killing In the Name instead and hopefullt simon will get the point and release a good song.

To be honest I only bought this to try and stop Rage Against the Machine from getting the Christmas number 1 - it didn't work unfortunately!

3.0 out of 5 stars A Song To Buy At That Time, 9 Feb 2010
By 
This review is from: The Climb (MP3 Download)
The only reason I brought this song is because it was good at the time now however I don't think that. It's one of them songs you like at that time and afterwards is just another song. Personally I don't think it's worth buying. Hope this helped.
