Here in 2024 remembering Bernie, Darius and Meatloaf. All amazing, all taken far too soon. I remember watching this at the time and marvelling at their talent and wonderful personalities. So sad, but fantastic all the same. Rest in peace every dear one. x 💖

Bernie was truly superb here, she put Kathrine Jenkins in the shade here. RIP Bernie.

[@hongy.k.1048]

Wow, fucking! I'd better keep my mouth shut. In this cIip I can't tell what on earth Bernie belongs to, pop singer or opera singer. She is really incredible beyond description. I will miss you, lovely Bernie, forever.

[@juliewheatley8411]

Sad loss ..cruel disease..Rest in Peace..Spirit Body and Soul

[@barbarasamual6142]

How very beautiful.

[@ageordieboy]

Oh my God. When Bernie hit the last to third note I thought “that’s exquisite, I can’t believe she hit that note” there’s no way she cab go higher than that. Then hit a higher note and then the third note at the very end. Absolutely blown away.

[@BlytheWorld1972]

Bernie was multi talented pop .. soul .. rock .. Japaneses pop .. disco .. Opera .. acting and she loved doing the lot she lived for it iv always thought she was special yes i love the nolans all of them but Bernie had the x factor that personality the voice .. her just being her the world is a sadder place without her love her but sill wish she was here x

[@fairybits]

+BlytheWorld1972 Odd though. She says she hated singing the old songs. She said she never sang them again. Who knew?!

[@fairybits]

BlytheWorld1972 She meant when she stopped singing. That is what she said in an interview I watched two days ago. Than she is a liar. Period.

[@BlytheWorld1972]

shut up freak

[@fairybits]

Calling me a freak AGAIN eh MARIE? Shakes head.BlytheWorld1972

[@davidacreman5828]

Bless bernie

[@tongapuss]

Listening to Katharine Jenkins takes me back to Kathleen Ferrier days, there is a similar timbre in he voice!!

[@Kevin-1969]

Bernie was the star of the Nolan’s

[@MyBecks13]

RIP BERNIE

[@MasterIsh91]

Agreed!

[@stephaniehershaw]

Wow what an amazing duet! :) Listen to me singing an opera at 14 years old! xxx

[@marshallscott7955]

How she came second I'll never know. She should have won by a mile.

[@donroberts2126]

Who would have thought...Two of my all-time favourite performers getting it together! It was surreal to watch it, then. It's painful, now, with Bernie taken away from us so soon afterwards... Still, at least she's with Kate, now....

[@SilverCharmbracelet]

Who is Kate?

[@donroberts2126]

@@SilverCharmbracelet Kate was Bernie's daughter, who was stillborn in 1998. She and husband - Steve Doneathy - had another daughter, Erin, who's now, in her early twenties... In 2004/5, Bernie released a single, which included "Better Place" or "Kate's Song", which she - subsequently - released on her solo alum "All By Myself". It was written by Steve....

[@stephencarter9570]

RIP Bernie

[@williedisney159]

Bernie has a natural tone, no need for back up x

[@samarmytage6199]

i'm impressed with bernie. who is the other one?

[@graemefowler2439]

Didn't Bernie just nail it.

[@MasterIsh91]

@mjhart123 I think she could be an amazing singer, but she only had 3 years of training from the Royal Academy and that simply isn't enough to be a professional Opera Singer. Yes, she does look rather good!

[@magdebates2697]

top lass wor bernie x rip

[@DarkMoltres]

r.i.p

[@josephworby724]

what a beautiful Bernie had

[@McLeanAmy]

[@amylouie1]

@MasterIsh91 She isn't an opera singer but a classical singer, the difference is that a classical singer is trained with opera techniques but without the years and years of training so they are not as technically perfect. Like Sarah Brightman or Andrea Bocelli.

[@McElhinney65]

Let's now go over to singing judge Lawrence Llewelyn Bowen who's going to tell us everything that he knows about singing.....

[@Chrille5782]

*RIP*

[@SingingAtheist05]

@SmaaRoe Katherine Jenkins is not an opera singer but a classical singer. (BTW you spelled Katherine wrong)

[@samarmytage6199]

i've got to pull myself to get her.lol.

[@therealawakener7]

Pissed all over Jenkins (who just stood there looking like a Thunderbirds puppet, while Bernie poured her heart & soul out). R.I.P. Bernie.

[@nicklane5336]

and on that note...

[@mjhart123]

@MasterIsh91 Well i am not sure how much you about music you know but i think she is an Amazing singer. I disagree with everything you just said lol ! But she looks so good

[@sinbad0p]

Bernie should have won

[@JohnathanCepeda]

@ruizhughes LMFAOOO I never thought of this 'til you typed this down ! AHAHAHAHA

[@davidjholt68]

i'm sorry but what was with katie j's hair? eurgh! bernie was amazing tho

[@mjhart123]

@MasterIsh91 AS IF !

[@desertcelt1]

Ah Katherine ur grand, but Berni is the best, love Miss Nolan, went to the Nolan nite out, check out Berni singin, Pink......... what a girl, come on de Nolan, come on de Irish, oh la

[@patrickdoyle9369]

And opera singer can really never do pop. But a op singer can do opera, what does that tell you..

[@crazy16167]

Personally I think Bernie did great (rip), it's Katherine's singing I'm not too keen on, she always sounds nasel to me, just like Celine Dion

[@miriamspall3113]

Am I the only one that thinks that katherine Jenkins tone of voice is annoying?

[@VALMCPHAN]

I totally agree l'm not alone hurrah

[@emmihtkd511]

VALERIE INCH she is out of tone with bernie

[@user-tj6vs6vi8h]

そうよ　この娘　この娘　左の娘

[@sandraburdess1921]

She sang better than Katherine...beautiful lady .gone too soon x

[@user-tj6vs6vi8h]

いや　右の小さな娘

[@MasterIsh91]

Katherine Jenkins could do with some training tbh.

[@AloneAgain]

I 10000% agree, Darius was terrible whereas Bernie was strong every week.

[@SeamonkeyRocks]

This is a joke right?!!! She is not an educated opera singer, she trained as a teacher.

[@triciakemish2134]

Katherine trained at The Royal Academy of Music in London!

[@SeamonkeyRocks]

If she actually did some training instead of sucking up to Piers Morgan, she might actually be an opera singer by now. As it happens she'd rather be a pop star, but the job of being Britney Spears was already taken.

[@SeamonkeyRocks]

An educated Opera singer?!!! LOL
