Kate Nash And Billy Bragg - A New England/Foundations - NME

billy bragg and kate nash sing foundations/a new england at the NME awards 2007.
Dont like this song, was put up for a friend.

[@edsharp1982]

A decade and a half of rewatching this. It’s my favourite version of New England. Incredible

[@LeftArchivist]

💯

[@nydeco1234]

Around 1981/82 I went with my friends to Danceteria in NYC. At some point during the night we made our way to the roof of the building and all of a sudden some English guy with a guitar starts playing this amazing song, A New England. It was Billy Bragg whom none of us had ever heard of and we were blown away. He was incredible. I’ll never forget that night.

[@user-hb1rg5jp9n]

Great times at a great era. Danceteria, Peppermint Lounge in NYC. Emerald City and City Gardens in Jersey great times.

[@grassygnoll3345]

"I saw two shooting stars last night and wished on them but they were only satellites, it's wrong to wish on space hardware, I wish, I wish you cared" is possibly one of the greatest lyrics in a love song ever

[@neilandrews6169]

Grassy Gnoll it's space hardware not harder !?!/,?!!

[@jeremiahbroccante]

I've always thought: "Waiting for someone to pull me through, when at last it didn't ring I knew it wasn't you" was so Zen as to be exquisite.

[@sarabevan3468]

You can see when Kate sings this she almost gets a Glastonbury moment ie 😁- bless her.

[@grassygnoll3345]

@@neilandrews6169 Thanks, I just noticed (that's two years, so I'm getting better). And fixed.

[@jasonbirch4203]

SPOT ON, BEAUTIFULL IN ITS SIMPLICATY !

[@Ducatijay72]

2023, kate Nash is still incredible, underrated and under played, the cribs are the best live band still and Billy Bragg is still a legend 🤲

[@robertarisz8464]

This duet has added such a new and deeper dimension to the song. Absolutely stunning.

[@idristhehuman560]

this is literally the most amazing thing ever. they are my two favourite singers ever. i was raised listening to billy bragg, and i also love kate nash's music. this is like my life put into one.

[@samuelwoods164]

I think my dad would have liked this as much as I do.

[@carltonlibertine]

Great song, Kate Nash's voice really adds something to it.

[@robashton5254]

Definitely!

[@markeeledge]

2 Classic Songs. Billy is a legend to our generation.

[@pulseorca928]

great collaboration - love how the female/male perspectives on ending bad relationships blend here. Well done.

[@jehugo66]

Wow, best performance of the 30 years I've loved this song. Didn't those decades go by quickly???⏳

[@jehugo66]

Of course I think an original diet with Kirsty McColl would be best but I've yet to find it.

[@s.cahill9701]

Hello from the future

[@derricktrotter9971]

I was 21 years when I wrote this song I'm 22 now but I wont be for long✌🏻 what a track

[@RobMorganest1983]

Kates voice complements Billys so well. This is poetry in motion.

[@jakelangford1981]

complements.

[@Imaweaverboy]

It's the music of the working class, done well it will always work together

[@brokenflower84]

billy is simply brilliant and kate nash is good as well. anything billy does is amazing it does not matter if it's music or politics. I always love billy.

[@afterthought3341]

Is he daed yet ?

[@katherineteates506]

First time I watched that .... & they both bossed it! Saw Billy in the 80’s on the Red Wedge tour. Some things never grow old ..... “I don’t want to change the world I’m just looking for a New England”. Don’t even get me started on politics. I’m up for feeding hungry children. But children - my friends- were hungry in the 80’s in the north east during the miners strike. Glad this song never loses it’s relevance.......

[@pwjc1]

Kate Nash - Billy Brag Some things should never happen. That clearly wasn't one of them. Brilliant.

[@shantibaku7394]

Totally cool. Kate Nash puts a brilliant twist on a classic.

[@adamb.2964]

Pretty well done. An unusual combination, but it works. New England will never get old.

[@berndadams]

you'd think they would take the time or trouble to find a good harmony but noooooo

[@atzegroot6494]

Nice word here a men from holland;)

[@rsmoor7469]

Brilliant, absolutely! Great duet,how can anyone not love this ,get some taste..

[@Knowbro]

That just gave me goosebumps..... Awesome!

[@rikwill6246]

Great to see a younger generation share a billy brag masterpiece. I ffff luved it

[@funkydoodycool]

The irony is that I was looking for "A New England" when I found this.

[@jakebatch874]

Totally same

[@Scrutii]

Love this Video - like the lyrics they compliment each other so well and come over as authentically genuine!!!

[@523Marc]

There needs to be a studio version of this duet

[@mrsainsburys1]

I must listen to this atleast twice a week, pretty much my ultimate song 🦉👍🙏❤️

[@skipzero]

WOW. Amazing! I'd love to see this live anywhere!

[@sptfgpn]

It's nice to see a father and daughter getting on so well together.

[@trevorlambert4226]

Can't tell if this is a joke.

[@robashton5254]

Harsh!

[@nuskaha]

what a brilliant duet,thankyou for uploading

[@kennymacm3031]

Had Billy's first album on tape back in the day. What a class collaboration

[@nic-fz1wc]

A real life love song 😞 fantastic duet!

[@OleGoable]

Fantastic!! Thanks for posting!!

[@seancarletonzero]

Billy Bragg, ladies and gentle man. Legend.

[@billyseymour8218]

The dogs bollocks

[@beetles1988]

Wow. Great collaboration Billy Brag is great and so is Kate Nash.

[@lauradennis7836]

How can you not like this song? He's so fascinating. this Kate Nash is a great compliment.

[@jerka2639]

Love this odd mix of songs and voices! Regarding the dislike of the accents by brits its kust stupid cause its thier greatest selling point 👌

[@gunneretic]

Thanks for posting this, excellent

[@davidk7575]

I was 21 when I wrote this song - now I'm 22 but I won't be for long. insanely deep lyric

[@StonefieldJim4]

Wow... pleasant surprise. Billy & Kate's voices work so well together on the chorus.

[@kumatoni5245]

Not sure how I hadn't seen this in the decade since it was uploaded, but glad I found it by chance today.

[@scatmanari]

When I watch this I feel like I am in heaven.

[@smith89425]

that's my favourite part too because she giggles abit there and the music cuts out for a while then comes back in again after; it works well.

[@joelmiddaugh8229]

I now absolutely love Kate Nash between this and GLOW. I've loved Billy Bragg since a child.

[@waylonsmithification]

ahhhh I can't stop watching this!

[@RevJock]

This is wonderful, how did i ever miss it :-(

[@KuboYamiMaple]

This was wonderful, Billy and katey

[@proximityeffect1603]

Dunno why but this moved me to tears

[@abcecilia]

It sooo rocks'. In memory of 1995 and mad times ... Stay wild, babe. und definitiv, wenn du in England bist schau vorbei !!!

[@sderoski1]

What an amazing match-up, Kate Nash and Billy Bragg, who would believe it?!

[@roakey182]

nice combination. two legends, well legends in my eyes

[@robashton5254]

100 per cent !

[@paulbailey5751]

Still love this version of both now

[@hazza00jj]

i would definatly buy this if it were released as a single. Billy and kate are brilliant together!

[@allidock11]

This is my favorite thing ever.

[@rokithard]

shes sooo cutte!!!!

[@xHerNameIsEmmax]

Both are such great artists

[@robashton5254]

Hell yeah!

[@Paciolimusic]

Just seeing the title of this made me like Kate Nash.. I'ma watch it once it loads...

[@TheGisert]

Epic version and recording!

[@Oxmix64]

Great Duet and choice of song. I wish they sang the "Kirsty" verse at the end of A New England. My dreams were full of strange ideas My mind was set despite your fears But other things got in the way I never asked that boy to stay Once upon a time at home I sat beside the telephone Waiting for someone to pull me through When at last it didn't ring I knew it wasn't you

[@valverdista]

Quem me dera cantar uma música com esta miuda, uma verdadeira doçura e o acento é de derreter.

[@paullad3178]

God I Love This SONG!!!

[@maxmaexchen4445]

love them both

[@pelipar]

i fucking loved this version! i think kate's actually a good singer. maybe not in the classic term, but i love her tones! and a new england is just bloody fantastic. 5stars

[@wbsmietana]

Awe reminds me of Kirsty Maccoll.

[@MariaKrueger]

Oh my, both of them are even better live.

[@blitzman11]

best ever compilation of 2songs

[@CabbagePatchFace]

Billy Bragg is amazinggg !!

[@blitzman11]

awsome song. love this version

[@L42A1]

This is great on a couple of different levels. I hadn't heard Kate Nash before this , but both Kate, and the girl in the song, seem the perfect match for Bill and the guy in The Saturday Boy, or Shirley. That's why I like this pairing up so much.

[@davidgudlaugson528]

This is fabulous❤

[@beauchelsea]

wow speachless!!! go on the billy and kate

[@catmandudes7949]

wow love the accent both of them are great nice

[@lagartijamaya]

I love you Billy.......

[@spiderweenie]

Absolutely outstanding performance

[@Doppelfrog]

It was awful. Kirsty MacColl must be spinning in her grave.

[@spiderweenie]

@@Doppelfrog wasn't her song to start with.

[@Doppelfrog]

@@spiderweenie No, but her version's still much better than this.

[@asteroid684]

She is awesome!

[@kristianlavey3925]

bill played my local festival few years ago. Kate Nash is headline this year. cm'on bill get down to saarfend again!

[@Emma849]

Unlike most of the other posts here, I really like this mix and think that their voices work really well together.

[@lepere13]

Big Love for this.

[@skyyyfx]

i just noticed i have to smile when SHE smiles too :o

[@daverationality2268]

amazing.....

[@AdammmOuch]

wow this is just brilliant!

[@terryguinan104]

Can no one get the poetry here. too modern poets sharing their best work just happens to be in song

[@nushla11]

aaaaaaahhh goosebumps!!!!!!!!

[@jehugo66]

Stupendous!

[@Myniog]

It's an excellent performance...two people singing about real life. It's a great combination..... :)

[@FreddieTheFoxx]

completely agree...she is absolutely breathtaking, f**k she's gorgeous!!!

[@tasteofcoda]

Love kate's face when she looks at him and smiles :)

[@robashton5254]

...thats what singing live music does to you. It just makes you feel amazing

[@Des7iny7]

Kirsty MacColl rest in peace. You were always an Angel 🥰🙏🏻🕊

[@Darforl]

[@baldypaul29]

and i think he misses Kirsty as much as i do

[@JONASSOMFAN]

OMG this is fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

[@sleepymagpie]

And kirsty almost certainly wouldn't have a problem with this collabiration.

[@jozzman]

magical

[@xelazekazooie3389]

This is beautiful

[@sarabevan3468]

I love Kate Nash, I love Billy Bragg and I love this song...and then together 😊. (Still love Kirsty's too though).
