The duet gives a whole new slant on this classic. Great stuff!

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

This is so utterly magnificent!

She does an excellent job. Not easy when you´re with a legend.

Does a good job until the chorus

Marc Almond’s still got it.

What a beautiful duet. Marc is ecstatic at the end. So cool to see true joy!

Wow Marc's voice is still amazing, I was around for the original, still Love it now 🤩🤩 Great duet with Imelda too 🤩💘

I got to witness this live as I was in the audience that night. So lucky. Would love if they did a proper recorded version on this collab that I could listen to on Spotify

Erm sweetie it was recorded or it would not be viewable to us on YT.

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.

Whatta song! Whatta MAN! and Lady!

Two beautiful people singing a beautiful song

My favorite song ever... And what a duo!!!

Still prefer him solo, he's still got the voice! This none of my favorite songs of all time! Love Marc almond!

I agree. His voice is so beautiful that I want to hear it on its own. I absolutely love the tone of his voice, absolutely beautiful, and he's so passionate and expressive. Masterful singer!

Was at the recording of this show, was a pleasure to be there. Lovely performance.

I loved the original and this is a good twist and just a bit of fun. Great duet.

They make a lovely duet! Marc Almond's looks or voice haven't changed.

Just stumbled across this. WOW Amazing, this song is from my youth, and Imelda has a beautiful voice

His voice is still perfect.

I enjoyed this version. Also Marc’s recent rendition at the O2 as part of Soft Cell with 24,000 backing singers. It’s a great song and like any great song can be interpreted in many different ways. By the way I can confirm that Marc has still got it!!

Fantastic performace. Thank You.

This version should be released. I think it could be a big hit again

What a fantastic version! Their voices sound great together.

Agreed. Works very well. Love it

great version lot of feeling in this live version BRILLIANT both Imelda and Mark !!!!!

the woman is perfect,Marc still brilliant..

Loved it great man great song sung beautifully as a duet one of my favourite songs the lyrics are so quirky great to sing along to as I often do.

Great, just love to hear Marc sing.

This is great - in gthe context that it's not as if they do this very often - and it's live. Imelda grows into it as the song goes. Her vocal builds and builds to really complement and match Marc's. Professionals at work here.

Gave me goosebumps listening to this. Quality 🙂

what a nice duet. I love them both!

Hey this was a perfect combo, the Irish lass teamed up very well with Marc so well. Great credit to both of them. :)

Enjoyed this a lot. She sings the fuck out of it. He's still got it too. But her range....is amazing.

Agreed. A classic in original form.

Marc Almond always wonderful. OMG.

Imelda is hot and awesome, great voice. Favourite Soft Cell song

Fabulous just fabulous

As Marc himself said at the end, 'that was mega.'

What a priviledge to duet this ballad with the main man. A consumate professional. The best version since the first.

I got so excited recently when I saw him on tour with Jules Holland in Aberystwyth...I just love his voice...and this song is so deliciously cruel...you have to laugh...

One of the best

His voice is still so great

Brilliant!

Fantastic!

Love this duet of Imelda May with Marc Almond. Bring on July in Liverpool, Bill Somers, Noreen O'Malley, Maria O'Malley and Aidan O'Malley

91' is my fav version but this one is fun. I like it too! ;) Cheers Marc, love from lil greece!

This is musical theatre!

When Imelda says ok off mic it's wonderful x

A great musical marriage!

Sorry just love it when Marc sings his bit alone

Awesome!

One of the greatest songs of all time. Original was as some.

Fantastic version

Never seen her before, she's fire...

Just brilliant

I love this..

He’s so cabaret. It’s brilliant

Better than the 80's original 💜

Prefer this version to the original one. They are having a good time together. :-)

WOW! Very nice!

Excellent

What fun!

I love Marc Almond, but I thought the harmonies were off.

Duets do not have to harmonise. The most important thing is if they pull off the opposite sides of a situation.

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.

Bit of a purist here....Love the original. However, the venom in this version is just delightful hahaha

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.

What key did she start in? Well out!

One of the worlds greatest homosexuals.long live marc

She is a much more powerful singer. She puts Mark in the shade.

Of course it's not going to be as good as the original but they did a great job.marc seems like a great guy

1 singer 1 song.

Mega

No Doubt meets a great performer, not a perfect match.

She destroys this.

Good

nailed it well the lid on the coffin was down

A-ha also sings this song.
