No idea why they changed the title to When We Collide.

If you click the link to my post it is named correctly in that link but X Factor have shortened the name to help it sell better.

listening to the original as i type this

Well my album covers show the song as Many of Horror so I am sticking by the fact that they changed the title.

Either way Matt's version is terrible.

Much better live performance and the band themselves refer to the song as Many of Horror ;-)

I wouldn't say it is terrible ,but i do prefer Biffy's ,as with most covers they are never as good as the original .
What would be good for the x factor is if they ever bothered to release an original song for the winner instead of doing covers all the time

Unless you've never heard the original. then you'd think the cover was better than the original.

I think Rebecca will go further than Matt. she'll be suited to dance music as well as ballads. She really needs to do Almaz cover.

But if you hadnt heard the original you couldn't say the cover was better as you couldn't compare the two!

That is a good point gary ,and i wonder if the X-factor chose a song like that (non mainstream )so the bulk of the public would think it was an original and also as Stephen said they have used the second title (changed the name) of the song so maybe the Xfactor think that the people who watch and vote are stupid

Biffy Clyro have always been all over Radio One and especially with that track, so it is a mainstream song.

I think they've just took the word horror off because it doesn't go well with Xmas.

people who watch aren't too bad. it's just the people who vote who are stupid

If you visit the link in my post you would find out what the song is all about. Not very christmasy at all lol.

Biffy Clyro are an Indy rock band. Not contemporary pop as Louie stated.

Amazing final, the right person won, and I was almost there with my prediction of the finishing order, good job I didn't put a bet on haha. Also, the many faces of Louis Walsh when the reject auditionees were on haha
