@mrsparkle001 Is the SNL live on YouTube? - I've looked & cant find it. I'm struggling to find more recent truly live gigs that are of top quality although they are great to see. Shame Michael is absent in many. I love contrast between little Susanna and towering Michael you see on this performance. Hope she didnt get a complex over her height! It's the chemistry (and banter) between them I love on this TV gig.
@jezkn A lot of their "live" performances were lip synced. I prefer seeing their true live performances "the SNL live performance is a personal favorite of mine" but I'll be honest, any opportunity to see Susanna is OK in my book!
@mrsparkle001 Yes - they always were L.S'd on GMTV. If you look closely even Aemon is lipsyncing himself! But the original is the BEST and the girls are performing this 12 years after the original so they're never going to sound like that live - and recent performances show they sound even less like it these day. I'm afraid L S-ing on tele (as long as its well synchronised - which this is) is just not an issue for me. However I'll grant you - the rest of YouTube seems obsessed with it!
This took some finding - I've trawled through about a hundred versions to find this. This is the real deal. Features the WHOLE band - not just Susanna and includes Michael. The quality is brilliant - the song SOUNDS like the original rather than a naff, watered down version. The girls look GREAT and the old chemistry is there (And Eamonn looks about 19 and isn't usng Grecian 2000 - or is he?)

@mrsparkle001 ooh - But unfortunately it's over a minute short of the original version. Still great to see though.

@jezkn It sounds like the original because it IS the original. They're lip syncing.

I know. I was disappointed by that. I've always wanted to hear an electric version of this song (minus the heavy metal cover).
