Dexys Midnight Runners - geno live

[saintscott67]

I went to see Kev on this tour and it was ok,his voice has gone and he can't sing like he used to so don't expect the old dexys stuff as it was 30 years ago as he has tweaked it all to suit his voice today not 30 years ago.at least he was singing live I suppose.the other fella singing was a bit annoying and he sometimes slipped into a fake American accent but Kev did his best and it was ok but I don't think I would go again.

[saralouist]

Wish I was there !!!

Yes very slow... but can you remember when you first heard the original???...and you wished you could slow it down to figure out the words??? No probs here eh? Brilliant song and amazing version!!!

[saralouist]

Wish I was there !!!

[borland4]

too slow, too slow, too slow!!!

[martin84125]

True Kev does like to mix it up constantly,- compare SFTYSR to To Rye Aye..completely different sound. U can take or leave this new vocal style, but the band still swings..tight. Kev has nothing to prove anyway, his genius status is assured.

[TheFleurieuLA]

Brilliant version. Kev can always take a song, reinvent and make it new.

kev rowland rocks

[kennykeefe1]

if i saw this live i would love it to bits ...comments that are bad must be from teens who dont understand that live is best

[uppercutter450]

God, what happenened? Where did all that crisp sounds go.

Acording to wiki the only other guy other that Kevin from the original band is the basist Pete Williams whois the other vocalist.

OMG wtf happened ???!! This can't be Dexy's they sound like a really bad wedding band fronted by a couple of used car salesmen !! Woeful - if this is what age does to you please, I want to die young !!

[Warthogfan]

This is hideous

[StevieJ72]

who's the guy in the striped suit???!!! what was that, what was that, what was that you say.....he's the best, that's all....look, the guy in the striped suit is....the guy in the striped suit. top bloke, brave fella, truly a good fella, seven years too long maaan......best wishes

[fdvirtudes]

Who's the guy in the striped suit?

[FendRhodesticles]

Kevin Rowland

[gazwilwah]

Is that shane ritchie? he sounds cheesy.

Kevin sounds great he shoulda sang it the way it was sang originally instead of trying to be Frank sinatra.

[Frankie845]

still the best----burn it down the best record of all time

stu

[ZLUGGO]

Great tune. Great band. The singer used to sing in another great band, the Killjoys.

[Frankie845]

The man still a fascination

[fraserjohnston1974]

ab fab baby

thats right thats right thats right

its what i was built to do...

this is magic man.

[fireblade929]

i think it still sounds great, kicks the shit out of any modern day x factor or britains got talent act.

[JAYROX1969]

Totally agree with you! There's no real passion in todays music, which Kev and Dexys had!!!!

[navikate]

of course his voice has gone! he went mad and broke down!

[benulike]

Too slow. How you gonna dance to that with a bellyfull o dexys? Seriously though what song to start the 80s with. Kinell. Top that.

[RGordonR]

It's not Big Jimmy Paterson on trombone. Absolutely tragic. Kevin's voice has gone. Seems to lack any confidence.

[WrestlingHeretic]

Is that Big Jim Paterson on trombone?

[agathon37]

Would you buy a used soul band from this man?

YES! Yes, I would!

[METALTASH]

omfg i love this bnd

[patriot0112]
