can some one help me out please.......im looking for a gavin friday song from years ago i think it might be 1992 or so, its a slow song and i don't know the name and i can't find it anywere!!! its a very sad song so someone must know it!!
I agree that he butchered it in comparison to Jack L's stellar version, but I thought the stuff Friday did with Duke Special was decent, and there were a couple of other weak links that night. Camille O'Sullivan I think her name was? That song that she and Duke managed to giggle their way through was just dire.
Ah don't be knocking Camille. It was just something they threw together at the last minute. She's incredible - truly. Check out my most recent upload.
Ah no, don't get me wrong, she's a great singer and fantastic preformer, no doubt about it, but with no rehersal and both of them sounding a little tipsy the song was something of a train wreck. Which is a shame, because with a little bit of work it could have been one of the highlights of the night.

actually like Bowie he's replicating the Scott walker version and it's quite good. But it's not Brel's triumphant ravellian manic march.

This is a song by Belgian singer Jaques Brel.

Thank you very much for the correction, I hate it when I credit songs to the wrong artist :S

He killed this song. Jack L's version is far superior. Friday was the only weak link in a great night.

I see what you're saying - yep - completely agree. Could have been special.
You going to the Duke Special/Divine Comedy gig?

I'd really love to, I'd say it'd be a spectacular gig, but I don't think I'll be able to make it. Will you be going yourself?
