i love duke special :D ever since i had to miss a rugby match for a stupid drama trip to see mother corage -.- turned out to be one of the best days ever :D
Duke played in Carrick on Shannon last night at the Carrick Water Music Festival, what a show!! Love this song, which he played at the end of his set. He just came off stage and pulled up a piano and they belted it out with audience help..
I met Duke in the Oran Mor Glasgow a few weeks ago when I was pissed and my brothers bird wanted to touch his hair. I hadn't heard of him before and asked what his name was and he told me to check it out here on Youtube. Really sound down to earth bloke and not pretentious at all. Ended up buying the album after hearing some tracks.
I was there that terrible day when Mick Hucknall and Robert Smith were involved in that horrible transporter accident-shocking result as you can see here-that weird accent he sings with is spliced Blackpool and Manchunian not Nor Ire as some seem to think =D
I love this guy, I met him twice and saw him live. His shows are absolutl brilliant.
First time I met him no one knew who he was. I loved him since... God I dunno but no one really knew him. I'm so glad he gets noticed now, he deserves it for the amazing music he writes.
Absolutely love him!! I saw him at my local shop nd I was shouted O my god there's duke special nd my mum nd brother just looked at me nd said "who?". I also love the Divine Comedy
I heard it on the radio but didn't catch the name. It drove me mad i cod only remember a bit of it! I went round sayin whats that song to everyone? "even though theres poison in each kiss she said no, no!"
saw this band live fuckin awesome!!! the singer went to run through the crowd and fell so he just crawled around peoples feet but the security guards couldn't find him then :)
Woudn't you be happy if he became rich and successful?
You never see people in comments saying, "You know, I was a fan back when nobody had heard of them, i'm so happy they are popular now so that everyone can experience and enjoy their music".

da devine comedy are fucken brill . didnt like duke special till this song . thought his first single wat was is , somethin bout a wheel and love , i duno ,but it was a sappy peice of comercial shit dat had da same tune as another sappy peice of comercial shit i heard . but this is fantastic . no doubt , and if he makes proper original tunes like this he can go far , no doubt
if he keeps up this quality of music and originality - i think he will gain more and more support and pick up real momentum - like i said IF HE KEEPS THIS UP he'll crack america - there is potential here - real star quality.
Amazing. And them with the beautiful tim minchin performing this song is pure eyegasm .
