- Hi guys, I hope you enjoy this cover of one of my favourite Spandau Ballet songs, "Through The Barricades". I think this song is beautiful melodically and lyrically, I'm really enjoying just having some fun creating these videos for you. I'm excited to be writing and releasing more of my original songs soon. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this one. I have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with Tony Hadley a few times over the years, and he is wonderful both as a person and as a musician, so it's been fun to sing this one.
Thanks for taking the time to be with me on here, I'll see you soon :)

Lyrics:
Mother doesn't know where love has gone,
She says it must be youth, that keeps us feeling strong
I see it in her face that's turned to ice,
And when she smiles, she shows the lines of sacrifice
And now I know what they're saying as the sun begins to fade
We made our love on waste land,
Through the barricades
Father made my history,
He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free
He taught me what to say in school
I learned it off by heart, but now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade
We made our love on waste land,
Through the barricades
Born on different sides of life
But we feel the same and feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep
And we'll cross the lines and dance upon the street
And now I know what they're saying
As the drums begin to fade
We made our love on waste land
Through the barricades
Oh turn around and I'll be there
There's a scar right through my heart
but I'll bare it again
I thought we were the human race,
but we were just another borderline case
And the stars reach down and tell us
There's always one escape
Oh, I don't know where love has gone
And in this troubled land, desperation keeps us strong
Friday's child is full of soul
With nothing left to lose, there's everything to go
And now I know what they're saying
It's a terrible beauty we've made
We made our love on waste land
Through the barricades
Now I know what they're saying
As our hearts go to their grave
We made our love on waste land,
Through the barricades.
We know that a singer is good when she takes risks and does better. When are not afraid of the beautiful composition and immerse yourself in it as if it were your own, when you make an arrangement better than the original. Just her, her piano and a soft light in the background. And the beautiful singer mesmerizes with her perfect pleasant charming voice. The best !! ☄🌺🎶❤
Soft Light
You make people happy, Connie. That's your gift. You're an angel. 🖤
So true !!
Yes❤🔥
😊😊❤❤
I don't think I will ever get enough of this girls music. Her voice is so unlike anyone else and you just don't want it to end. What a gift
She's my favourite too, she's amazing!
Connie thank you for such a beautiful rendition of this beautiful song. You very subtly and accurately convey the mood that the authors had in mind when writing the song. My ears enjoyed listening to the beautiful voice and the delicate shaping of the sound. I am again pleasantly shocked by the choice of song and how you performed it. This is simply brilliant! I want to listen again and again.
I can’t find words that would accurately convey my delight. All words fade against your background. I'm looking forward to new enchanting performances. thank you very much again!
Wow one of my fave songs just got a new twist with a killer vocal, well done, your voice is very emotive, incredible
Another angelic song , im so happy that you have stuck to doing the same style of music over the years instead of going to a different type of music like other singers did Connie because you have such a beautiful voice and it would be sad if you chose to do another genre , your voice was made for slow soft ballads ❤.
You have the most beautiful voice ❤️
I could just listen to you sing all day n night! Beautiful cover of this song.
You look absolutely beautiful Connie 🫶🏻
This is a beautiful rendition of this song, Connie has a beautiful singing voice, i remember she was little girl singing over the rainbow 🌈
I remember it too ❤❤. Have you seen her singing with Boyce Avenue? (On UA-cam). I’m sure you’ll love it 😊🇬🇧
Que maravilha...parabéns connie talbot, excelente trabalho...desejo a ti, muito sucesso, paz e amor...um grande abraço de teu fã do Brasil....linda como sempre..continue assim.🥰😍😍
Connie умничка! Маленькая птичка превращается в блистательную леди.
Wow!I never thought anyone but Tony Hadley would be able to sing this song with such intensity. This was beautiful.
Thank you my gorgeous queen Connie Talbot for the upload have an amazing night and a great weekend ❤❤❤
It's so nice to see you upload a lot lately, always a pleasure listening to you.
Thought it might be difficult to convey the Sentiment and tone of tony hadley with the subject of the original . Loved this version, sung with empathy and clarity and just a subtle piano accompaniment to that beautiful voice . Thank you Connie.
This beautiful soul sings from her heart to heal the hearts of her generation ❤️
With each video the quality improves, which was already good since the first one. Gratzz ,more one nice music video.
Thank you Connie, that's allways SO wonderful to hear you singing.. Love from Denmark..!!
hello connie.
I love your voice so much. It's a pleasure to wait until you come up with something new. Keep it up, we all love you.
so soothing - you're a singing princess deserving a crowning

Hello Connie, It's hard to get through sometimes but I mean we'll. I write and I know it's a moment of feeling that brings the words to the surface and from the soul. I can feel the music coming from you more then just visual. There is a deeper story in it. I never heard the song, Through the Barricades so I just hear you singing an original as you made it your own. Beautifully done. God bless Connie....Ralph 🎻🎵❤
Absolutely mesmerizing. Such a strong and beautiful voice.
Very good!!!
Each song of yours is a caress to the soul, Thank you Connie !

I've loved this song since Spandau Ballet first released it. I love it even more now Connie! ❤
This is very well done. Nice Connie, good one, absolutely. It’s Beautiful & Thank you. Spandau Ballet & especially Through the Barricades, Gold & True, along with a couple of other song of theirs evoke some quality & quantity of the past for me. Played on your piano & Sang by you Connie Talbot this has pleased me. Thank you again ❤
Gold & TRUE
WELL SAID 🎉
Philip. Shall a will be brought forth
just perfect Connie. ❤
What a beautiful interpretation of this song, Connie 🎹 🎙️
I grew up in the 1980's listening to this band on the radio (in the U.S. 🇺🇸 )- mostly replays of their 1983 hit "True" 🎵 - but this song of theirs from 1986 has such a tragic backstory, from what I've read 🇮🇪
You always pick the best covers, and you sing them so well - not to mention your original songs, which are very impressive 🎼 - you have a lot of talent 👍
Everyone loves you, Connie 💕 - you are the best! We all look forward to the next performance 🎶
so lovely on so many levels. big thanks for this Connie. 🇨🇦

I was never a fan of Spandau Ballet but I am a huge fan of Connie and the way she has handled this rather difficult number reinforces that view. Well done Connie.
Hauntingly beautiful song...you made us feel the pain. Great voice, great tone!
Beautiful as ever. I love you Connie xx

Beautiful, beautiful rendition!👏👏👏 Thank You Connie❤ It's always pleasure to watch and listen your performances 👌❤️
This is my all time favourite Spandau Ballet track , such a beautiful song by Gary Kemp with stunning vocals by the great Tony Hadley. I have never heard it performed by a female vocalist before but Connie, you truly did the song and yourself proud. It was a beautiful version performed with just the piano and your crystal clear voice ❤😊❤
Absolutely mesmerising Connie, your voice is incredibly beautiful, piano playing impeccable, the tone and range of your voice sublime and all while singing one of my favourite songs of all time. You more than did it justice! Stunning! ❤
Beautiful Connie, can't beat a bit of Spandau Ballet.
Wonderful song Connie ❤
Sooo lovely Connie!❤
what a beautiful morning to wake up to and listen to your beautiful cover! you always amaze me Connie
A beautiful version of Spandau's finest song.
I have never heard this song before but your voice and singing is absolutely beautiful. Your piano skills are wonderful also. Bravo Connie, bravo!
Omg this is perfectly beautiful🥹
Another beautiful gift from Connie.
So beautiful! ❤
I wonder what Spandau Ballet would think of this cover? Absolutely beautiful, well done done👏👏👏
This is like massage for the soul. Thank you, Connie!
Always loved this song, and this is a great cover. A simple piano backing and a great vocal is all this needs, delivered here in spades. Good job!
