    She should do a cover of the original song "Vincent".
    Lovely singing voice.

    Rachel is always top rate brilliant, but this ong, specifically is just my personal favorite. I watch it ever time it comes up on my feed. I've started singing along.

    I had never heard Vincent until a few days ago, so when I heard it, I slowly went, “hang on, this is the melody from Hen do on a train!”. Congrats Rachel, you almost ruined Don Maclean for me:).

    I think it's rather good. I mean trying to play the piano and sing at the same time is really really hard. Plus, I just generally found it funny.

    I know she's taking the piss but... she actually has a pretty good voice... A little too much vibrato, but... yeah, the girl can sing... I'd like to hear her - go into rock mode. I always liked her, but this is a new side - piano playing, singing... She's defo nervous - and rightly so - its a helluva prospect taking on something like this... but she plays well, sings well and performs.... what more could you want? Got a feeling she has a little Pat Bennetar / Joan Jett under that hood.... The odd hint at a rasp was enough to make me think... Hmmmm...... rock godess? I'd listen to her sing... actually, over her comedy.... She's funny AS well, but I prefer her singing....

      Yeah it’s nerves but it’s comedy not a music gig, works with her personality too, and the tone of the story. It’s legit funny 😁

      @davimurph 4 роки тому +8

      I'm assuming that you don't understand the phrase because you're not someone who speaks British or Irish English. If you do understand the phrase, and you're asking about its origins, then this comment is a complete waste of your time.
      Do is British slang for party. A hen do is a party held for a woman shortly before she gets married. The male equivalent is a stag do (presumably because cock do sounds wrong). I'm not sure why they chose to name the parties after those animals.

      So, you didn't like it. Fine. You prefer a comedy from fifty years ago that I'm sure lot of other people find dull and unfunny. That's fine too. But I'm always intrigued to wonder why you think anyone cares that you don't like it? You're not the official elected representative to speak on all our behalf about what is or isn't funny in comedy. All comedy is funny to somebody, all comedy is unfunny to somebody. This wasn't you're taste. Move on.
