  • Terry Hall is beautiful, with or without hair xxx

  • This is a very "tacky" video. =p

  • this is very strange

  • This video went viral on Panama City

  • She sucks-horrible wispy voice-needs an iv of chopped liver

  • simply beautiful xxx

  • Comment removed

  • Sinead is beautiful... yet on a lower level... its also delightful to see that a high priestess of 'the coquette' ('..does the girl know how to flirt?' - 'Huh? Does the girl know how to flirt? - Wot are you? An Eeejit or something?') Yes... glad to see that Sinead has cheered up since 'Nothing Compares to U' ... Mind you, all kinds of everything... reminds me... of 'who' ..?

  • ace video, she is incredibly beautiful, with or without hair .

  • Love this soooo much!!!!

  • That's what I call ROMANTIC!!!

  • Wow.. Never seen this before. Loved it!

  • sinead looks beautiful..Terry is fucking sell out to SKA!

  • What a great version, lovely voices!

  • What a great version, lovely voices!

  • a tune i heard a long time ago ... !! very nice

  • @sirtinycreep.She is on a lot of meds for her bi-polar disorder,give her a break

  • @dublinbarterclub If I may add... Incedently, Terry too (has bipolar syndrome), which sort of explains his offbeat personality that his fans, like me, were always accustomed to, though he wasn't diagnosed 'till recently. They are old friends and their voices compliment each other's so well! Beautiful! This was made around 98, I think. Btw, Terry too put on a bit of weight these last couple of years (not much), and the kind of meds prescribed for that illness often do that. Besides, people age.

  • Sinead has changed a lot in six years. I saw her recently and she was fat. Her face had totally changed. She looked about 60.

  • @sirtinycreep you dont know WHY,allright?

  • @anneke499 Well from that asnwer I would suspect she's been seriously ill, but I haven't heard anything.

  • @sirtinycreep Hello,Yes she is seriously ill and she is jusing a lot of medicin,and she had a extreem hard life,maby you must read more about here,but for me ,she is the best, and she is real tx

  • I will cry when my VHS tape of this finally wears out.  Thank goodness for YouTube.

  • where can I find a version of this to upload to my MP3???

  • I really like it...I do !!!!

  • Whoever thought of putting these two together shud be certified, congratuled and then released. It shouldn't work but it does......thanks

  • UMNR Terry Blair and Anouchka

  • Too dark and pessimistic video for such a bright and sunny song...Well performed, Sinead even smiles and does it well, but I like Dana's version more....

  • @TU154 I think the contrast between the giddy brightness and the black and white film noir setting are what make the song wonderful. Otherwise it would sacharine. Besides it shows how some performers who tend to be more serious are able to play and have fun with a piece, yet another contrast. It is a very cute piece.

  • Terry Terry the Dingleberry...

  • Sinead is cute. No doubt

  • What can I say - cute and adorable.

  • I like the original version sung by Dana at Eurovision Song Festival more. :(

  • Im not to sure if I knew this existed and it's a really nice version so used to Mr Hall showing so much emotion when he is singing up tempo songs it's nice to see him not jumping around and singing with that i'd rather be anywhere else expression on his face,love his voice on this .

  • last one

  • like bob marley once said; when it hits you you feel no pain.

  • SINEAD WITH HAIR, OH MY GODNESS

  • They are well suited ...

    They should have created an album of covers, I'd of bought have bought it.

  • Wonder if Terry and Sinead hooked up during this time ...seems like their chemistry is golden

  • Thank you for sharing this video, it's great!

  • 1st saw this vid years ago on tv [think it was EUROTRASH does EUROVISION]

    spent years trying to convince people it existed

    TERRY HALL IS GOD

  • keep being miserable terry,u r the best whatever u do.

  • how the mighty have fallen, this is funny though, sinead o'connor has a dirty grin

  • My opinion: The original is better. I don't like the beat that goes all through this version too loud.

  • just as good as monkey in winter

  • Love it ......

  • Jerry only appears briefly and has given no regard to the 3 artist that are in the video who want the video to be seen by the public. THIS IS SO UNFAIR.......Do you not feel this is absurd?

    Many thanks to the 25,000 who have seen the video and enjoyed it.

    Blair

  • Hi people, this is Blair from Terry, Blair & Anouchka. I put up the video of Ultra modern Nursery Rhymes and received a disclaimer from Jerry Sadowitz that I was infringing his copyright. How sad is this? A harmless video, no money changes hands, it's not played on TV and the only exposure is through web sites like YouTube.

  • terry hall is gay??? ha. your having a laugh. the mans a genius. brought up on his music.. he is a legend.

  • my god what a find, great song this amazing

  • Really fine cover

  • Mighty mighty Mr Hall. Your songs helped me grow into the man I am.

  • Congratulations at being a dad again at 51 Terry....

  • wow a dad at 51,,, i thought he was gay

  • Ha ha...I'll tell him next time I see him. Far from being gay he has another son who's over 20 yrs of age!

  • His newly born is named Oscar!

  • Blimey! 3 thumbs down for congratulating Terry on the birth of his new born son Oscar......

  • Two cool dudes together!! Terry lighting up in the background when all kinds of everything was allowed... love this version... Dont think they fancy eachother though what a pity!!! They could and could still do lovely songs and clips like this wee jewel.... What u all think?

  • the are not two dudes!

  • she's so cute at the last

  • love terry hall and sineads voice is so NICE !!!!!!! never really followed her singing career but with a voice like that she probably deserved a hell of a lot more recognition !!!!!!!!!!

  • At the risk of repeating myself repeating myself, I will say this only once: if you like this song, you'll love Dana's debut LP of the same name. Hear it now on my channel!

  • Absolutely brilliant,can`t get the tune out of my head

  • Love the way Sinead flutters her eyelids and puts on that lovely smile in the background - so unlike her usual unsmiling persona. Shows she has a sense of humour. Had I not seen this with my own eyes I would have refused to believe that the two of them got together to sing this rather schmaltzy song. So unlike anything you would expect from this combination. Love it.

  • It's cute and goes with the song's mood. Call me corny but I like it. First time I've seen that. Wonderful world of YouTube lol.

  • Totally agree, every now and then I find a real gem on here, and this is definitely one of those. Always been a fan of Terry, loved Sineads first album, but never knew they'd done this duet - and a video with real nice touches in it.

  • There's another version of this with a bit of an interview where Terry points out that, had Leonard Cohen written the same words, everyone would have thought it was genius -- people only think it's schmaltzy 'cos of the Eurovision connection.

  • absolutly the song for my mum xxxx god bless you

  • Class

  • Have loved this version for ages. We played the song at my daughters funeral, sums her up perfectly. Not listened to it for a while, but a few beers and it is beautiful, as was my darling Ruby.

  • Really sorry to hear of your loss, that is so tragic, but it is a beatiful chioce of song, listening to it a 2nd time your story puts a whole new meaning to it.

  • @rubyamelie xxxx

  • @rubyamelie sorry to hear of your loss, I remember the original by Dana when I was about 10.......lovely lyrics, may your daughter rest in peace.x

  • Fantastic rendition, although I didnt realise that Dermot Murnaghan of Sky news & eggheads fame had made a video.

  • omg yeah spitting image!

  • The beauty of youtube..Started with the Four Tops...Found my way after many great songs at Matt Monro..Then through some Eurovision songs i stumbled across this little gem. Have found so many songs and collaborations that i never knew existed on youtube, so a big than you to all the contributers that make it all possible

  • I saw this on T.V. years ago - tried to find it for ages...I love this song..Terry Hall & Sinhead O'Connor do a great job

  • not sure why but i love this vid :s

  • wow what a great reprise of this song where can i buy it xxx

  • Terry is so cool. And "English" funny.

  • Where has this video been hiding? I have a new appreciation for Sinead & Terry, great chemistry.

  • I love it, I think it is magnificent. I think they really do compliment each other. I know that they are great friends and have known one another for some years. Even though thay sang this tongue in cheek, their voices really do compliment each others, and the song too.

  • This is just soooo brilliant. Both singers are legends in their own right. Sinead's light Irish lilt and terry's recognizable voice go together so well. It is a fantastic piece of music. Innocent, light, Sinead is having fun while Terry is his usual serious self, haha, but they compliment each other.

  • Terry Hall is a legend. And Sinead is a fantastic singer too. These two work so well together, they compliment each other. Like to see more from these two,

  • Absolutely awesome. Terry is a total ledgend! And fab to see him back and back on tour with the Specials.

  • just love hairy sinead such a sweet girl!!

  • Adorable!

  • amazing......love seeing her smile and his dry voice ........love it

  • awesome....love this song.

  • Comment removed

  • Sinead's quite fit really.

  • The girl...Terry was looking for in his perfect ballad...... 10/10......

  • damn, that's good....enjoying very much

  • Best song in all playlists such a sad song.

  • Best part was when he lights up a smoke in the background...

  • SnNl...

  • love her and her voice ...........

  • Just love this,it is a bit of fun and a bit quirky but gorgeous.Thanks for posting also loved Dana's version.

  • She looks more feminine prettier bald. She has her beautiful eyes extends out. Long hair! well,..She looks like a man!

  • You must know some strange men!

  • sunof a bitch thats good i had no idea this existed terry sang with oconor wow ... ther should be more...of them very cool..

  • At 1:47 why is she scratching her nose?

  • Cos she had an itch?

  • She's seems to think it's funny singing such sweet lyrics while he looks like he's dying to just get it over with--kind of makes the song sound corny; listening with out watching is better.

  • I think that's just the on-stage persona Terry Hall always liked to project, ever since his days with The Specials: the sullen, moody Brit.

  • No they are just having fun. They compliment each other very well.

  • Deux artistes jusqu'aux bouts des ongles.

  • ...compared to the original version with dana :...well, she was full of girlish innocence and romance ,whereas this here is a bit sinister and lacks of real joy and gloom...

  • I have never in my life heard such a voice!! I can't stop listening!!!!

  • Sinead wasn't as good at keeping a straight face as Terry

  • This is a great song! I sometimes wonder if Terry Hall's reactions are just an act, though, for the video, it looked like he didn't enjoy singing the song, but the voice certainly didn't sound like that! He sang it beautiful, and not to mention he was flipping gorgeous! Sinead looked like she was having fun!

  • i,ll 2nd that, she is gorgous with hair...

  • god!

    she's so fucking beautiful it hurts.

  • is it just me or does she hav the koolist smile

  • great song...

    my girlfriend dedicated this to me...

  • wow, i love this so much :)

  • merci pour partager cette chanson, the lyrics are really poetic i think.

  • I can't watch this often enough! It's gorgeous.

  • I thought I could reply to some of those posters who felt "sick" while watching ... Folks ... This is a wonderful easy tune with very innocent lyrics. It reflects perfectly the idea of a fresh love - and Sinead and Terry perform it in a casual "just recorded" style. The atmosphere is so light and easy it makes me think there be nothing between them but innocense - or all kinds of everything! Great song, great performers, great video. I love it. Thx for posting!

  • Excellent, did they really dislike each other's attempts at singing so much? Facial expressions are close to priceless.

  • actually in my memory its an old song for children... Bought these two brought it alive...lovely

  • it's on the CD collaborations

  • Where can I get this on cd? I just love this -love love love it!!!

  • It was originally recorded for the Channel4 Programme Eurotrash, they released a CD of covers of well loved Eurovision entries called, "Sing a song for Eurotrash" Some great tracks on it

  • thanks for the info.

  • I love her smirks, and his melancholy sighs. It's as if they found someone more somber than Sinead and then they gave them both a chipper winter tune to sing. LOVE IT! Every bit of it.

  • I don't think it matters if you like the song or not, it's just so well done, yes a bit tounge in cheek....maybe

  • Delightful, joyous and blooming marvellous!

  • i love em .. it has a sense of humor and .. its cute

  • this is sweet

  • Is this a joke ?

  • sparkie holidays and things of the night remind me of u lol as well as autumn spring winter..... and a rainy day in june xxxx

  • sorry dont agree I LOVED THIS terry and sinaed spoke to my soul so if u didnt like it so what ...

  • If people don't like the song.....simple....don't listen to it. I think its a nice song

  • prick

  • Grow up matey

  • I watch this time and again and it gives me goose bumps every time.

    Beautifully, soulfully sung.

  • Very, very, very nice

  • @domkaos (and everyone reading this)

    i find this is just - sweet - the song, the performers, the video - and MY teeth feel pretty fine.

  • terry looks like the IRA have a gun to his head...and sinead looks like she's loving it

  • hahahahaha

  • Terry looks bored shitless... but then again... he always did. But its about as far from 'concrete jungle' as a man can get!

  • I think he looks amused - as if he cant quite believe he's doing this!

  • it's pretty.

  • Thanks so much for posting this. Terry is as gorgeous as ever...

  • I love sinead but I don't like her long hair here.she looks as an ordinary girl.her smile and eyes are just perfect as usual.

  • I think Sinead O'Connor is far to extraordinary to ever really seem like an ordinary girl. Still, I agree with you. She is far more beautiful without all that hair.

  • This track is also delightful, joyous and blooming marvellous when looking at the Earth from space.

  • i can remember hearing this on 'song for eurotrash', i hadnt even heard the song before but instantly fell in love with the song... thank you so much for posting this.xx

  • terry great as always 2 tone

  • Brilliant, joyous and blooming marvellous - that's why? why? why? why?

  • The things that crop up on you tube.

  • why why why why why why why why why

  • Thats so funny, terry looks like he's sulking cos be doesn't want to sing that song, and your one is laughing at him.

  • Cute! How old were she performing that?

    Does anybody know?

  • Don't know about her age, but this was 1998.

  • It was 1998, so she would have been 32; she was born in 1966.

  • A decent cover version,though i dont know if it was a hit?Good stuff!!

  • former lead singer of The Specials and Fun Boy Three
