Tom Odell's version of Real Love, unveiled as the soundtrack to the official John Lewis Xmas advertising campaign, has already attracted a great deal of derision from Lennon fans here in the UK. Personally, although I prefer the original demo version, if Odell's version encourages people to seek out Lennon's music for the first time then that can only be a good thing.
Interestingly enough, the festive period also sees Paul McCartney's We All Stand Together used to advertise the Debenham's Xmas marketing campaign.
It will be interesting to see which tune wins out in the music charts.
