I'm not from Australia; what is the premise of this show? Does he sing duets with guest stars all the time, or is that just part of it? I'd sure like to see more of it though. OMG! This song is fabulous and those two together sound wonderful!!! Thanks for posting this.
@avallonmist he hosts a tv show called good news week. Its a comedy/panel/game show based on the news of the week. the panel has local and overseas guest comediens. paul is known to break out into song regularly. it is now traditional on the last show of the season to do a large live show with a number of musical numbers amongst it and to finish.
@uknowispeaksense Thank you for answering my question; I wish we got this show here in the States, it looks like so much fun!!! Every time I hear this song I get chills. I love Australians, you're the most wonderful people!
@uknowispeaksense Thank you for answering my question; I wish we got this show here in the States, it looks like so much fun!!! Every time I hear this song I get chills. I love Australians, you're the most wonderful people!
I was at this taping, the whole show was just electric, and so much ended up on the cutting room floor (Mikey you dirty dirty boy). It's always great to get to see Paul perform live musically, this was a great way to end of the year.
This song is so amazing. My little brother used to sing it all the time when he was like 4, which is pretty much the only thing cooler than Paul McDermott singing it
She became famous for her singing in the band Def FX before becoming the Wiccan spokeswoman. Def FX were an awesome band, you should check out their videos clips on Youtube.
I rekon its weird that Paul Mac's real name is Paul Mcdermott.. And that both the two guys of the same name worked so closely with each other.. It must be a very common name.
Paul McDermott. One of this countrys finest entertainers. Fiona Horne. She can sing, she can act, she can write, she's an expert on scuba diving and wicca and she's drop dead gorgeous. ahh! I think I'm in love.
WOW!What has happened to the Australian entertainment industry? THE FOOTYSHOW,BIG BROTHER,AUSTRALIAN IDOL This just shows we are so much better than that.bring back live entertainment. This is epic. p.s i love u fiona
I've got this song as a CD single. Beautiful song, Fiona has got one of the most gorgeous voices in Australian music - a shame that her chart career hasn't been as successful as her writing and presenting career.
my Mum only remember last Night that she has the Single of this.... i've been singing Paul Mcdermott songs for months! yay i have this and Happiness on my Ipod :)
Paul is such a great singer. Has he ever performed at Carols by Candlelight like so many other celebrities who can sing? It doesn't seem like something he would do, but the more the love is spread, the better.
i can't find it on youtube :( was the song trancended? becuase there is a clip on the ten site with him singing that on GNW but i can download the audio kinda and no image:(
I was at this show!! It was filmed at the now shutdown Perth Entertainment Centre, and they filled it twice in the night. I'm not sure if they ever put this on a separate CD, but it might be worth checking ebay for it
does anyone know the compilation album that this came out on i am stalking second hand CD places and hopeing to find this wonderful song. I am sick of pepsi hits etc. wud someone tell these guys that some of us, even after all these years love this rendition paul please sing more
Im not from Austr. but it looks like him and Fiona Horne dont like each other at all!!! There was like no interaction between the two during the song.
but its coming back, feb 2008. this is probably the twenthieth comment ive made telling people! google it. channel ten is stuffed coz they aint got no us writers for house and heroes and stuff, so they are getting mcdermott to fill the void.
btw, mcdermott- def in, mikey and the chick (ahhh i forget her name! =O) not sure. want cameron bruce back.
I believe that the singing and Sandy and Flacco were mainly on Good News Weekend and Nightlight and as only Good News Week has come back you can't expect it to have things from all 3 shows.
Sandman and Flacco appeared a few time as guests on GNW before they joined the spin off programs as regulars, as for the singing, We seem to forget that Paul didn't do it all the time all the time, in the early days it was a special event only he would sing like the news years episodes(they were great btw, the whole extended family gathered around the TV one year to watch it, twas great about thirty of us gagging ourselves in laughter) and then he did it more often when ratings were in lulls.
I first heard this song when Paul did it at a performance of Mosh at the Adelaide Fringe Festival in March 1996. I thought it was one of the most beautiful songs I had ever heard, and I still think that. I've got it on CD too, got very excited when I found it because I was worried I would never hear it again. The man is an incredible talent.
