Sparks & The Heritage Orchestra Perform The Number One Song In Heaven Live at The Barbican 20/12/14
Includes the infamous "Ron Dance" and a slight mishap. Don't worry folks. He got up to fight for another day.

Russell is hitting high notes that Elton hasn't been able to since his 80's throat operation. Sparks have released their 25th studio album in 2021. Only death will stop the genius of Sparks. Long Live Sparks.......
Russell had an incredible voice range from falsetto down which he never lost. This collaboration with a full-blown orchestra is incredible & we see Ron dance!!

I saw them last night Feb 14th at the Ace Theatre in Los Angeles, the most amazing show I've ever seen. I've been to great concerts before, but these Mael Brothers took the heavyweight title with both ease and style! I wish I could see them again tonight.
I have always been a fan of the Mael brothers. I don't listen to their music every day anymore, but this wonderful song is a trip back in time to my teenage years. Beat The Clock.

I see all the orchestra are smilling if not laughing at this task . they seem to enjoy it as we did the audience . thanks guys.
Voice is the same. Incredible. Thanks.
This is gorgeous! And Ron's dance was brilliant as usually, despite some obstacles on the stage :)
Was für ein wunderbares Erlebnis, dass Orchester ist,,nicht zu beschreiben, phänomenal!! Die Brüder, ich verehre Euch und danke für alles! Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland.
Top 5 bands of all time without any doubt ❤❤
That's simply fantastic!! There are no words to describe that, wonderful!! DAS IST WUNDERBAR!! My favourite version of this song!
That fall and comeback is fucking hilarious
Danke an beide Künstler und an das Orchester, super Performance und Stimme ich bin tief beeindruckt.
The Mael brothers, still beautiful and amazing after all these years. *sigh!* My imaginary husband Russell, LOL!

Totally agree with you Mia. Russell and Ron are absolutely charming, sparkling like champagne on stage. Russell is amazingly good-looking 😍 and enticing on this performance. Sparks have made us dream without hindering us with their privacy for decades. I also really like their discretion on this subject. However I fear that you have chosen the wrong first name for your ideal husband, since Russell like his brother chose to remain single ... But you are absolutely right to dream of these two damn good musicians 🤭 ...:

Wow! That was incredible! All other concerts must be depressed now as they are inadequate in comparison!
Making a masterpiece Even better! They are number one with me.Sparks the band that keeps on giving!
AMAZING! This sounds even better than the recorded version; it's so dramatic!
Absolutely love Sparks. God bless Ron and Russell Mael, and hopefully 2022 will be better than 2020/21, with all the live shows coming. Glasgow Barrowland's on Wednesday 13 April. See you there Sparks.
Wundervolle Performance, schöne Stimme, super Geschwister geniale Musik von den beiden! Das Orchester ist einmalig!! Herzlichen Dank an alle Mitgliedern.!!! Mehr davon .

Lovely that Russ went to check he was ok. I dont think it was planned.
I have a version in my head that has fervent violins at the original or even faster tempo with a pizzicato section. I love this song and every version except the very short one
Absolutely magnificent, a veritable tour de force....
Thanks for this colin i was there and really enjoyed the concert ,one of many ive been to since 1976.
Magnigfique performance vocale de Russell, un style vestimentaire à la fois très original et sobre lui va très bien; et lui comme toujours charmant et lumineux. Un Ronald très déchainé , mais difficile de mettre en valeur ses propres talents de pianiste et compositeur devant un grand orchestre, donc son personnage burlesque parfaitement maitrisé, doté d'un excellent danseur a primé :)..J'attends un tutoriel de Ronald pour apprendre sa danse :) :).. Toujours de supers moments musicaux avec les pétillants frères Mael. Merci pour cette vidéo.
this is sublime.
Brilhante, sensacional, o tempo não passou para Ron e Russel, pqp !
Geniale Musiker, einer wie der andere zusammen genial!! Orchester super Danke für diese Performance
Haha! That was great. I didn't know they had done this, thanks so much for uploading.
Incredible just incredible.
Hope you post more videos, that was an incredible show!

Big composition sparks the best group of the world music
Just so amazing!!
D'un hymne disco, Russell et Ron démontre que la bonne musique peut être magnifiée, élevée au rang de chef d'œuvre. Le génie de Ron c'est de savoir s'amuser avec son talent ! Il ne manque plus que le miracle de leur éternelle créativité .
I can hear Mika singing this 💓
Amazing
Nice! Nice! Nice!
99% of people don't know that STATUS QUO were the first Band in history to perform a concert with a full orchestra. STATUS QUO were the first Band to perform 4 concerts in 4 different cities in 24 hours to raise money for charity. STATUS QUO were the first Band who didn't care what any body thought about them. STATUS QUO are big fans of SPARKS. Attitude is a major aspect of art. I'm a massive fan of both Bands.

I'd love to see the footage from the bloke's phone @ 6:13 in the front row with the red t-shirt!
Well managed stage fall there, Ron but looking at the number trip hazards you're lucky it wasn't a real one.
fantastic! :-) Anyway, he didn't fall, he faked it

Was this show professionally filmed and released anywhere ?.
Who orchestrated this? Ron? Or Heritage Orchestra members? There's sheet music there at the podium...

Jules Buckley, the conductor. The first part of the concert was "Kimono my house" from start to finish with the orchestra. Ron And Russell came on stage wearing kimono's.
This is very cool. but daaaaaaaaaaaang it man i need those heavy electro techno sounds bouncing off themselves. It makes the track more than vocals, more than a lot of facets of this song imo.
Pity the sound quality is awful ! The song is really great and so are Sparks
