Jacqui Abbott has a lovely voice!

[@simoncurtis2827]

She has the most beautiful seductive female singing voice EVER!

[@cjcookie7723]

You can see the smile on Paul's face at the beginning. 'Yeah, we nailed this'

[@TheGeniegenius]

top man paul is, he put one grand behind the bar of 60 pubs for his 60th birthday, he chose the coachmakers in stoke as one of them cheers paul

[@garyn4321]

What a voice, Jacqui is amazing!

[@ianmills35]

Jacqui Abbotts voice just gets better and better 🎶🎶💕

[@glenndouglas8822]

She is so unique and a blossom.🥰

[@crispyduck1706]

These two legends were born to sing together - simply delicious to listen to

[@patrickkelly7085]

I thought they were terrible when they first appeared on the pop scene listening to them go through the motions of performing this song my opinion of them has not changed.

[@johnnybalasquez88]

@@patrickkelly7085 I like them both,but your comment made me piss I thought you was gonna say you'd changed your mind on them

[@wharsmetoothpicson9465]

@@patrickkelly7085 you're entitiled to your opinion but, objectively, I'm just curious how you can hear their voices together and call them terrible. What is your threshold for not terrible?

[@lindagrant9063]

Simply amazing..two voices that blend so well together.. perfection

[@PaulJay-g2x]

Amazing how they have turned this song into their own!

[@v1sionary100]

Seriously? FFS this is wank

[@KateMacfadyen-ep9xd]

Two great singers covering my all-time favourite band what's not to love?

[@AT-jt7zc]

I love this, listen to it over and over. I'm always intrigued how she never looks at him.....

[@eastcoastdefender0166]

I'm a huge Rainbow fan and by extension a Russ Ballard fan...but I'm from Hull and a huge Paul Heaton fan too...this version is my idea of heaven...it quite literally made my hair stand on end! Fantastic version!!

[@Caskchap]

I liked Rainbow, shame about Bungle.

[@gs425]

His band may have Hull roots, but Paul is a scouser :-)

[@lyndamcardle4123]

Another Russ Ballard fan...I got his first two solo albums (and two others) the second from which this song came.

[@stuartcarden1371]

Love the little smile that comes across Paul's face when he realises how well it's going.

[@saltire667]

When you know, you know! Absolutely nailed it and they know it!

[@BeasleyStreet]

They've took it and run with it...best cover I've heard in many a year...👏👏👏

[@Omega21456]

Rainbows version was also a cover

[@James.G.Ireland]

Only guy I've ever heard sing this better than the original a guy called Jim Barry of a band called The Memories but thisbisna nice version

[@James.G.Ireland]

​@@Omega21456Russ forgot about him

[@TheDoveys]

I switched on the radio as they were mid way through the first track they did on the Evans show and I was listening for a while before I even figured out that they were playing live. Unbelievably good performance 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@funvideoswithhelenf]

Is there anytime you two can't do?. You just brought me back to the local nightclub scene in Clonmel Co. Tipperary over 30 years ago. A lot of people have passed on since then including the DJ who used to blast this out. Good times and great memories before we all had to grow up.

[@LUFC123]

They can't sing "some might say"

[@timmanc]

@@LUFC123 but they can say “some might sing”

Derek Fanning - Clonmel Aviici 😉

[@Charlie_Crown]

Barry's, Clonmel Arms or Hotel Minella?

[@MrConan89]

Having played gigs for 65 years (now 78) I amazed how good the relatively new innovation of the 'beat box' can add so much to a musical group.

[@swans67]

Absolute class👌 ..Paul and Jacqui complement each other so well.

[@robertmorris7620]

Great version of an all time classic

[@stewartmcardle8149]

One of many (of the massively under-rated) Russ Ballard compositions that have been successful for other artistes.

[@NSYresearch]

Their voices together a simply perfect.

[@raymondmassie4898]

Brilliant song, brilliant vocals, beautiful harmonies

[@Pengranger]

Genuinely shocked at the amazing sound quality listening on a phone! Just amazing :-)

[@julianwhite3916]

Nice cameo from John Shuttleworth on the keyboards.

[@PlattLaneEnd]

Ooooff!

[@Phil1982]

Oof that was a bit high

[@KristonAbbott]

Hello Ken.

[@stevewalters4845]

And next two margarines

[@PlattLaneEnd]

@@stevewalters4845 that would be crazy - having 2 margarines on the go...

[@RosablueHandMade]

Those voices! This is a joyful thing but I genuinely think they could sing me the phonebook!

[@writerinprogress]

Two of the most unique voices in British music, slaying an absolute classic! And it's clear they have a great relationship too - those little sideways smiles at Jackie from Paul when he knows they sound AMAZING together is just adorable!

[@simonekreft237]

Brilliant cover of one of my all time favourites🔥🔥🔥

[@brownwarrior6867]

I do believe even Ritchie Blackmore smiled ( like a postmodern Wizard ) after hearing this. God Bless Graham Bonnet Skeggies finest 😎

[@terrykemp1876]

They could never be anything less than beautiful!

[@peteriversfanclub]

That kids......is how it's really done!

[@samwindsor7905]

Outstanding!.....Love a bit of Rainbow, what a cover.

[@paulbrian23]

Amazing. Always loved Paul's voice.

[@ElGwapo1927]

Gives a great track a new lease of life. Brilliant

[@druidswillow1052]

Ritchie & Graham would deffo approve, Much better than I thought it was going to be X

[@user-kq3rf3zh7b]

Love Heaton's little smirk. He knows they've nailed it... world class

[@Michael-mm3fm]

I remember this being in the charts. Really ‘hard’ sound for the solo, wonder how Blackmore got that. Russ Ballard, thank you.

[@NelliTigris]

Watched this sneakily at work in the morning..... What a treat ♥️

[@Drum2]

One of my fav Rainbow songs and this version was great too. :)

[@leebo8079]

LOVE ❤ These two! Get well soon Jacqui

[@meh3247]

Kudos to them all... I find it impossible to play this (on bass) without a certain amount of headbanging.

[@georgeduncan9443]

beautiful south = soundtrack of my teenage years. wonderful !

[@duffyellie]

Please please please do this one on tour in December!!

[@thumper151284]

I like how Chris has always had Paul on his shows. TFI, Radio 2, The One Show and his Virgin Show. Obviously appreciates the music.

[@martingilchrist6577]

Loved this. Been a massive fan of Paul Heaton for years, one of the most talented singer/songwriters the UK has produced in the last 30 years, a travesty he isn't better known.

[@MikeMichaels1987]

There should be books written, documentaries filmed about Paul Heaton. Fuck ed sheerin and stormzy and all that utter pish. Paul Heaton is the real deal.

[@tonemc6047]

Of course he’s known.
