You gotta love "baby bay-beh!" all to pieces!!! And how nice that backup singers, Rochelle and Fran from accounting slipped away on their break to help out.
I knew Paul Shane in the mid nineties when he used to live across the road from me, and I can assure you that on the quiet this is a joke. He hand picked the awful backing singers (they performed in a club just down the road), and the ridiculous mike holloway for their laugh appeal. They didn't know paul was semi-joking with this, and neither did the BBC!
nice story, paul and the girls are shocking lol. but the fag in the leather pants and white t'shirt has a good voice. this whole performance is bloody funny
If Glastonbury, Reading etc put Paul Shane headlining (with the same backing singers) even I might be persauded to get a ticket, an hour of him murdering other classics would be a most memorable night and in a good way..
I was sitting on the sofa getting stoned and my wife told me as a child Paul Shane told her off for smoking on the train in a smoking carriage! Said he was a right arrogant, pisshead wanker, so I said I saw Paul Shane sing live on telly once and he was total shit (back in the say) I looked it up and it's on youtube.
I remember coming home for lunch from primary school & watching Pebble Mill at lunchtimes. I think these were the days before This Morning. Good times!
I can remember actually seeing this at the time it was broadcast-LIVE. I actually pissed myself I was laughing so much. Its all the funnier because of the trendy outfit he's wearing and the fact that he truly thinks he can sing.
I think he should do a duet with Su-Bo but they would have to have nametags on so we could tell them apart, awesome performance with such rare emotion, not sure if i dont prefer this to the original.
God, at first I saw the backing singers swaying, and I thought christ, poor bastards, having to pretend to be into it, but they were just as bad as him! Fuck me...
Last time I saw Paul Shane, he was in an advert in the local paper flogging mobility scooters. True story.
@TheAngelrapture hahaha that's my favourite part. Bless him. wiggle wiggle wiggle!! Is that the sound of his agent killing himself in the background?!
Years later I took my kids to a pantomime and Paul Shane was in it. He was clearly pissed up throughout the performance. He got some kids up on the stage and was close to hurting them.
I remember seeing this live. Only me and another guy at Uni had caught it and we tried to tell everyone how funny it was. Now I shall be sending this link around the world!!!!!
The 'bastard in the leather trousers' is former 'Tomorrow People' and Flintlock star Mike Holloway. He was probably included to try and mask Paul Shane's obvious incompetence as a vocalist. Using that criteria they should have hired a fucking choir...
No wonder "Pebble Mill" wenr=t tits up, this must have been the final nail in the coffin, "lips" and "tips" with three syllabels ffs. Comedy gold, at long, long last,, from Paul Shane.
Sorry Ted , but the saying " a face like a bulldog licking piss of a nettle " always comes to mind whenever i see you in this.Its so bad its fuckin brilliant !!!
"When i kiss your li hi hi-ips" "no tenderness like before in your finger ti iy iy-ips". Comedy genius or complete t**t? Baby, Bay-BEH!!! He looks like he's playing boxing on the Wii very badly. Absolute quality.
I actually remember bunking off from school and seeing this when it was first broadcast. Pissed myself then and it still makes piss myself now. Paul Shane what was you thinking
You sir, are a legend for uploading the complete thing. My only complaint was it wasn't the original Pebble Mill broadcast, so there's some pointless canned laughter over Paul's silky smooth vocals, but I've waited so long for this, I'll take it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I thought about this in the car today, remember seeing it when it first aired, man it was cringe worthily funny then and I had to watch it when I got home... so many funny points it has to be comedy.
He's not dead at all (at least as recently as January 29th 2009)...
Me n all my mates went on holiday to Benidorm and spotted him riding through a tacky British themed pub on a mobility scooter.. Possibly one of the funniest things I've ever seen..
still better than "Stupido Hoe"
