Imelda dies what few can, this version is sublime, one of the greatest songs ever turned into a pithy fight. Just glorious.

Whatever arrangements given to this song, it never loses the golden dust, glittering through the veils of the ''saintly dusk'' hopelessness it suggests. Imelda does get ''inside the story'' and delivers on an intense duet.

You are not kidding. She nails her Gwen Stefani delivery. However, she is trying to sing the lead rather than the harmony. Her hard work in the karaoke bar does not qualify her to sing with a legend. However, we all know the Irish do not have a lot to look at so they are clearly more forgiving with this shite. Reminds me of the Tadolf Switler duet car wreck with Stevie Nicks.

It is not often a solo song can be turned into a duet but this works well. Their voices harmonise well. It would be even better if there was a chemistry between them like with Kirsty MacColl and Shane MacGowan in Fairy Tale Of New York. To me it seems to be missing, not faulting the performance as a whole as it is a bloody good one and both are great singers. I would have bought it on 7" if this was the original release.
