It's always a delight when Darren takes the lead vocals - especially with a song that is so melodic, yet still so soulful - It is crisp and succulent at the same time - another amazing memory from '84 if Im not mistaken ❤🙏👏👌🎤🎶
☕️ good morning Rik
@@chisel83 always a great morning brother - but especially so on a Saturday morning! 🙏🎶🎤
Sounds like you're describing a KitKat!

This is one of the less played Spandau Ballet songs, so it's good to see it revived here.
This and Highly Strung!
To cut a long story short, this is gold, true! :)
Hey! Don't start the pun train going, that's my job!
oh Mister, i was gonna say that 🤣😂 ...... I lost my mind!
I see what you did there !😆
Only when you listen
Once again, just so good - that Strat sound at the beginning - so accurate, so 80s, so Spandau, so New Romantic - then the synth sound, the divine sax ... and the sheer talent and musicianship of everyone in that studio. And even Darren's voice has a hint of the Tony Hadley about it, which only goes to show what a versatile singer he is.
Kind words thank you 🙏🏼🧡
I totally agree!
listening better than original.
@@amandopiano4291 The comment 'better than the original' is just ridiculous. The song was written and performed by Spandau Ballet 40 years ago. Technology has moved on, almost everything has moved on. The song was uniquely theirs, they wrote it, crafted it, arranged it and recorded it. It wouldn't exist if they hadn't done so. Forty years later someone does a great cover of it, but it has to exist in the first place for anyone to be able to cover it. This cover is a great, truthful and respectful homage, made in 2023 by fantastic musicians with all the resources and technology available to them. There are plenty of singers better than John Lennon but when they cover a Beatles song it doesn't make it 'better' than the Beatles.
@@amandopiano4291 There is something wrong with your ear if you truly think this cover, while it’s very well done and sung, is better than the original. They would have a record deal and should have a #1 hit song already.
Darren having lots of fun! Nice groove Gents. Great Sax playing. Thoroughly enjoyed that Gem! #SingItLive #Producernerd
Great to see lefty back on guitar!! Great rendition guys.
Humans are amazing creatures. Some do only good things to the world, while some have been harming other people by claiming their fallacies on their own interests. Please keep doing good music things, Singit Live team.
Darren on lead vocals, Jack on Sax and Sam on Guitar - it doesn't get much better than this, especially when the song's an old favourite of mine. Thanks a lot gents!
Come on Mr. Scott, that bass is just TOO good to believe. Wow! Sounded absolutely amazing. Nice sunglasses as well.
I take it Darren is a Spandau Ballet fan because it’s so evident in his voice how much fun he has singing this New Romantic era classic, as if he was born to sing it. The tone of his voice, the rhythm of the guitar and the hot sax solo were just mesmerizing. Well done boys!!! I didn’t think it was possible, but I think I enjoy each weekly video more and more!!!!
🙏🏼👊🏼
You have expressed my thoughts. Thank you Singit Live, for brightening my moments with your great work! Greetings from Spain!
@@singitliveworldPlease make a cover of This i swear by Richard Darbyshire.....but your work is always a masterpiece. ❤❤Greetings from Austria to Australia......
Excelent , cover ...Ricardo Bratus .Fron Brazil
One of my fav Spandau songs ~ Tony Hadley would approve! Guitar riffs spot on!
Hi everyone, great song choice, great vocals from you Darren and absolutely great sax from extremely talented Jack, just keeeeeep going. Singit Life? Thank you very much from all of YOU guys💎🎤🎷🎹🎸🎸🥁👈🏻👉🏻👏🏻👍🏻👌🏻❤🧡💛💜
A treat to have the brilliant Sam Leske on lead guitar.
Awesome to have the Bassist @bassgoose in the foreground, completely relaxed delivering a great bass line.
The bass player is having a blast with the sunglasses and all, real cool dude.
Yet another tune knocked out of the proverbial musical park by Darren & the SIL crew of amazing musicians! Rock on.... 👍👍🎤🎤🎸🎸🥁🥁👏👏
So happy to see Sam back, I feel like I haven't seen him since HSCC's last video with Darren. Great guitarist!
Always knew Damien was the coolest; stay at the front Damien, its where you should be!
You guys totally captured the 80s sound, the Spandau vibe. Great job!
Omg Spandau Ballet, “Only When You Leave” i used to listen every day back in the 80’s❤❤
That guitar is mesmerizing. Sax, Bass, Vocals, Drums, Keys, everything top notch! Thanks again for a great rendition of a classic.
No matter who you cover you capture the essence
Darren left you the piano and the direction of the artists to take the place which you are also gifted to be in front of the public. All credit to you Darren. Well done !
One of the best cover of SingitLive!!! The vocalist is so great and saxophonist is awesome!
Excellent! It's not just getting 6 top top musicians together , but just to have them really perform - create a message and enjoy it as much as the audience, well this is awesome. And the engineering - man, you raised the bar again! Love it
Now that’s some singing 🙌 I’ve always loved your voice Daz. All the butter in my fridge just melted 😅
Thanks my friend🙏🏼👊🏼
Now here's a hot (cold?) topic. Who keeps their butter in the fridge or on the side? Answers on a postcard to Mr Shaun Holton, SA. He will update us with the result of this poll 🤣🤣🤣
@@MattyFitt73 both!
I actually think I might be pregnant after that sax solo tho’
80's New Romantic song Amazing Cover 👍👍👍
Yes it is always great when Darren takes the lead vocals!!! 👍🎶
Too kind 🙏🏼
Can’t stop listening to this bugger. I love it, Daz is great.
My most favourite band ever….thank you Singit Live….nice to see you take the lead vocals Darren…💎💙💎
Not a song I'm familiar with, but the professionalism, quality, and sense of cool make me want to hear it over again.
Darren's vocal abilities are unbounded!!!! Wow!!! Great job SingIt live!!!
❤ It's Friday night in Europe and I love it ❤
Darren your authentic passion and tremendous skills bring forth the soul of every song 🗽
This is special and something very very precious 💎
Kudos to the entire band 🎉🎶🎉
❤ Thx Guys ❤
🤙
We have (in the past) presented a lot of US music but have wanted to show the UK our love for their content too. Please share us around if you can to spread the word. More Europe coming soon x
Ooh, I feel our mutual love for Nik Kershaw heading this way... @@singitliveworld 🙏
@@MattyFitt73
Oh yes. Wouldn’t It Be Good? 👍 (more like great).
Thanks so much for sharing that beautiful song😊
We could go on all day, Riddle me this!@@michaelp1496
Great song! Great job covering it! It's not easy following a talent like Tony Hadley.
Never was a fan of Spandau, but the musicianship here is undeniable!
The joy you all bring others, EVERY, SINGLE, TIME!!! And Darren, your talent knows no bounds! Thank you for the music SIL ❤Also, how smooth does Damien look in this!! Rock on! Not to sound impatient but hurry up and do your next concert! #SingItLive
You should sing more often, Darren! Good to see Sam Leske back on the studio!
Can we just say how in the pocket and absolutely rock solid Damien is?
Great vocals Darren, excellent deep bass and lead. Drums excellent too, nice job Sing it Live. Once again, you guys are a time machine and take me back. Like this one, but it wasn't played enough over the radio stations. Can appreciate it now.
Great to see Darren on lead vocal again, fantastic voice and did the song proud 👊 Singitlive Family ❤️
That is just great! And you can actually hear the smooth bass line. Very well produced and performed guys!
These are all great musicians, but the bassist is really something else 😮
I love this song much. Good singer. Thank you 🙂👏👏👏👍
I think this is my favourite Spandau Ballet song and you didn’t disappoint! Tony would enjoy it I’m sure! The replication of the ‘true’ sound was amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎶🎶💕💕
Simply wonderful. Six extremely talented musicians with a great execution. Tony should be very proud of You!!!
My first time listening is almost always on my Samsung Flip 4. It has a crappy speaker and still your music sounds great. Subsequently I listen on proper speakers and sometimes through headphones.
I always test my mixes on my mobile knowing a large percentage will view/listen that way. Glad you like it. Darren M
Kudos to the bassman. Nice guitar tone also! 😊
Guitarist is on the money
This band should be world famous! All the best and love from France. ❤
This band Is world famous!!!
@@alfredoperez74 Yes, Alfredo! But they have should be more! 😎👍
Oh, man! I get so excited when people do covers of one of the underrated 80s bands. I LOVE Spandau Ballet!
Definitely not underrated to me. This song and band were an integral part of my life's soundtrack
Now it's just a shame that you can't emulate Tony's hair... (anymore?)@@singitliveworld
Crazy good version. It was great, then that sax really nailed it for me.
Awwwwh Darren I absolutely love your voice and you never dissapoint. Musically tight right down to the last drum stick roll, beautifully executed.
I have watched this 3 times and it gets better every time I watch it Fabulous
Truly excellent musicianship. I love how you basically choose any song you feel to, and you kill it every time! Thanks so much, Singit Live. God bless from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🙏
I agree with you!
I am so, SO pleased to see Sam Leske back! Loved his sound in tracks with that other mob, esp Chuck E's In Love. More Sam! Damien, you are one cool cat - so laid back, it almost looks like you are playing in slo-mo. Jack Degenhart, moonlighting as Steve Norman with that gorgeous sax sound. Darren...swoon 😍💋not many voices truly suit taking on Tony Hadley, but yours does. With any luck my other equal favourite Spandau songs along with this one - 'Gold' and 'I'll Fly For You' - are on the list sometime.
Lots to choose from. I'm sure there are plenty of under-rated British acts to perform. Darren's and my mutual love for Nik Kershaw will appear at one point. Who's in your 80's UK want list Sharon? x
He has the list! They've done a few from my list, and I did note some time back there was a great UK seam yet to mine...@@MattyFitt73
I didn't know that song but what a great song and performance. But what struck me from the very beginning was how rich the sound and mix is. Every instrument and vocals and every nuance was crystal clear and balanced perfectly. I may need to listen to this multiple times focusing on each instrument in each separate listening. Awesome!!! ❤
Darren's never afraid to not go with the most obvious choice from a group. The music is more important.
It’s on like Billy bong
It is! 😅
Super cool bass and drums
love what what you do....brings back good memories! xanadu and two out of three aint bad are amazing!!
Great Job on vocal's Darren. Moving Damien up front on bass I never noticed how much he looks like Robert De Niro.
You guys never disappoint, no matter the song or the performers. Thanks for all you do!!!
TBH I like Darren's approach to music.....what a guy....
Very kind thank you🙏🏼
@@singitliveworld You are welcome...I'm a harsh critic too!
Not a Spandau fan but yes sir go... My bro on guitar is awesome. Good to see Jackie again
I love them ❤Its doesn't sound old song.
Bravissimo maestros, tackling a Spandau number is no easy task ,YOUVE done them proud. Love it when Darren takes lead vocals and sax man you rock dude 🫡👌
Few would even attempt this song, even fewer could lay it down.. Bravo from Florida, USA by way of Toronto, Canada
*Classic Recording! Mr. Darren is a MASTER at the recording console!*
Excelente versión. Spandau Ballet ... recuerdos de mi juventud. Felicitaciones. Abrazo desde Uruguay
Great cover, drummer is very tight keeping it all together
I love this so much.
I will be having a go myself at the next karaoke night I go to.
Thanks y’all. I will be channeling Daren.
Fab, please give us I'll Fly For You and How Many Lies at some point, too? Thanks again for these great versions from a great era of songs.
Good job Darren👍👍, we wait you in France…❤️❤️🇫🇷🇫🇷🇦🇺🇦🇺
Perfection. the 80's will live on.
That's taken me right back guys.. remember seeing Spandau Ballet play live a few times in the late 80s. You nailed this one Darren. That Strat sound Wow!! And the sax solo. Every thing on point from all involved. Just fantastic 💯
Love it, a really superb cover of a great song! Cheers from Sweden!
Such a great voice and performance. Loved it.
It is so strange to see Darren up front on vocals, while someone else plays keys in his usual position. And could Damien's right hand bass be any more relaxed? Love it.
Wow, well done to the synth dude (Darren), now singer.. wicked voice, well done
Simply amazing, love Darren's vocal and the band, everyone is top notch week after week. Great song choice. Always loved Spandau Ballet and this song, but for me your version beats the original hands down. Well done guys. Cheers from Canada.
Followed Spandau since they came on the scene in 81' and always considered this their best song ! Great cover!
You mean in 1980!
Awesome 😂
cool bass on this one
I've been waiting for To Cut A Long Story Short but I'll gladly accept this gem. Smooth? Smooth.
Great Performance! I really like this version. Greetings from switzerland 🇨🇭
Superb rendition of my favourite Spandau song. That was a treat, well done all.
Another fine vocal performance Daz, these 80s songs are right in your lane, Simply Red soon? Everyone one else great job gang. Jackie boy 👌👌 Damo looking cooler than the other side of the pillow 😎
Ooooh Darren "Mick Hutnall" Mullan - I sooooooo see that!!
@@rikrushton6826see see 👍
He'd have to hide his grey with a bit of Red Just For Men though...@@rikrushton6826
@@MattyFitt73😂
Guitar and bass were killing it.
This was always my favourite track on that Spandau album, great song choice, given the treatment it deserves!
Well done. Love Spandau Ballett, and Darren, 2 thumbs up to you!!! Love it just love it. Thanks. From Malaysia
Nice to see a fellow leftie! Great cover. Cheers!
As usually, perfect playing and musicianship. Bravo!!! This cover revealed how smart this song is arranged and produced. For that matter, Spandau Ballet is underestimated. But, this is not the reason why I decided to leave here a comment. Mr Hadley is such a great singer, but I think he is also underestimated - his soulful, melodic and slick singing is really top of the notch. Therefore, a huge BRAVISSIMO goes to Darren, for his singing on this cover. Man, you've succeed to catch all those Tony's nuances and "ornaments". That's outstanding! My hat, as musician, goes down! 🙌🙌🙌
My goodness, thats 🔥🔥🔥🔥🎆🎆🎆! Gold next????!!!!! Awesome Job guys!
🎸 Smoke’n!!
I’ve never heard this song before but I’m sure this is way better than the original version.
Same for me.
Good afternoon from Spain. I just discovered you. I love the talent you have. From today you have a privileged place among my favorite musicians. No doubt I will continue listening to you for a long time.
Great version. Thank you for covering this song. Takes me back to the 80s when I was a teenager. Loved those days.
This vid needs a few million hits, it's fabulous!
Hard song to sing ……nailed it well done ….I’m going down the pub 🍻
Great to see the Goose upfront and doing his thang! Another great cover where every member hit it out of the park. And Darren's singing just gets better.
Great selection this week guys! I love the saxophone! It's my favorite horn!!! Super rendition! Love your voice Darren!
