R and J Stone, this song was big hit in Australia around 1975. Joanne died of a brain tumour in 1979. you can see the love they had for each other. Life is cruel sometimes.
I was resident DJ at the Rum Runner in Birmingham from 1974-81. One night a guy came in to promote his latest single, he called himself 'Moon Williams'. He told me that he was Russell of R & J Stone and that Joanne had recently died, I could tell that he was still distraught and not over her death. I always think of him and Joanne whenever I hear this record. I wish him well and hope that he managed to get his career back on track. DJ Paul Anthony
I remember this so well. It was a hit in early 1976. Another song around this time was "Afternoon Delight" . Lots of one hit wonders in the mid seventies. Every song brings back memories.
I was working at the Butlins holiday camp filey hot summer 1976, distinctly remember afternoon delight ,,silly love songs by PM, soul city walking and young hearts run free. it does Seem like yesterday
Thank you Russell Oliver Stone and Joanne Stone for this simple masterpiece. This is Jan 8, 2021. Man, this song still resonates today! Nothing in the world gonna stop us...To my very special one. God Bless you all.
Just travelled in the car on a long journey home and put some old tapes on. This track was on it. Wow, one you don't hear on the radio very much and what a pity; a fantastic song. Thanks for posting. I recall on TOTP there was one performance where Russell sang the first verse and Joanna slowly walked on behind him in time for her to sing the second verse. Didn't realise she had passed away. RIP.
Life can be too cruel! For a couple to go from sharing their special love with the world to having that love sundered by heart breaking tragedy is a terrifying turn around. I can only imagine how Russell must've felt when Joanne was taken from him.
R&J Stone were the English/American husband and wife duo, Russell Oliver Stone and Joanne Stone.[1] The pair were originally members of James Last's British Choir for a number of years. They had a hit single in the mid 1970s with their self penned song "We Do It".[2][3] The track was produced by Phil Swern. Some time after their hit, Russell Stone decided that he did not want to remain as a singer, and preferred to concentrate on producing and writing for his wife.[1] Their second album did not do well and a third album, although recorded, was never released. Joanne Stone died of a brain tumour in 1979.[4] Russell Stone later went to Munich to work with the Icelander Thorir Baldursson. Stone is a recovered alcoholic and has released three solo albums, Love Aspects (2013), Groove Aspects (2014) and Devotional Aspects (2016), after spending years out of the music industry.[1]
Fantastic performance. What a wonderful voice Joanna had. Sad loss. The part where she flies... 'Hey Baby...' brings tears to my eyes. Thanks for posting.
A beautiful song and performance. It's one of those where you wonder if they'll get the high notes - and then they do [it]! What a pair of great vocalists. That [early '76] was a magical time period for me - never to be repeated unfortunately. I could do without Steve Wright's 'downbeat' comments, but each to his own...
Russell Oliver Stone-Born in 1946 in Norwich, UK. with the self-penned, worldwide hit 'We Do It'. Following the death of his late wife Joanne in 1979, the J of R & J Stone, it got to number 5 in the UK for this husband & wife duo on 10th-Jan-76. A 1 hit wonder.
I always loved this song. Great live rendition. I read in the paper today that Joanne was the voice on Paper Lace's hit 'Billy don't be a hero' ("Come back and make me your wife" etc.). RIP Joanne.
Beautiful song ....just a 1 hit wonder but boy was it good....so sad that Joanne stone died at such a young age in 1979 ...so tragic as she obviously had so much more to offer life really is so short people so please don't forget to b kind to each other good karma so important and do something nice for someone no matter how small it may seem at the time god bless xx😇🥰😎
i love this song have done since i first heard in in 1976 i was 10 i remember watching this on top of the pops and thinking even then that i loved there voices its got to be one of the best love songs ever written what a happy loving couple so awful that they were split by death but real soul mates dont die they carry on again forever in heaven beautiful singers together steve wright should be ashamed he always was a prat !
Beautiful song...."there's something baby, pulls you right on back to me, and it won't give in at all"....we got a lot of real love and a deep affection.....such romantic lyrics....and suits us very well.... thank you....you know who you are.....xxxxx
It must have torn the guys heart out to lose his soul mate at such a young age. Apparently all flower shops for a twenty mile radius were cleared of stock on the day of her funeral. It shows how many hearts were touched by the love they generated. It's sad that Steve Wright felt it necessary to give such a derisory comment to introduce the video, mind you, it's better to be simply thought of as an imbecile than as in his case to open his mouth and confirm the fact.
Só tenho a agradecer a este DEUS maravilhoso que me concedeu esta grande emoção de tê-la mais uma vez em meus braços. Após vinte e dois anos a reencontrei... o mesmo amor e sentimento implodiu no céu azul da minha emoção... eu te amo e nunca irei deixar de amá-la. Meu amor por vc é verdadeiro!! mas infelizmente tudo acabou...
when I hear the rubbish today,s so called singers give us , you have to say how lucky we were to grow up listening to talented people like this duo. I know many younger people are listening to decent music like this. long may it continue
I delivered milk to these two in Camberley Surrey when this song was a hit . I used to wake them up for payment they were not too happy being woken up Sadly she died in 79
I saw them in concert at the time of this. Joanne was beautiful and I was so sad when I heard of her death. This song always remind me of her. God bless.
classic beautiful love song from a lovely couple who let their love show through one of the greatest love songs ever written and could not be performed better than Russell and Joanne such a sad sad loss rip JOANNE never get tired of watching their videos RiP JOANNEXXX
Fantastic song .The days when you had to sell millions to have a number one, not like these days where you have to have a few downloads! Great year for music, 10 years old and not a care in the world. Shame this was a one hit wonder as vocals could not be better. 1976 was a tough year to hit the top with Abba especially ruling the charts. Billy Ocean's first hit came out about the same time as this and only made no.2 which says it all. The Real Thing also provided tough oppostion that year.
R and J Stone, this song was big hit in Australia around 1975. Joanne died of a brain tumour in 1979. you can see the love they had for each other. Life is cruel sometimes.
Joanne Stone was not only beautiful but also had the most magnificent voice that gave justice to this 1976 masterpiece. Gone too soon. #RIP 😞
Wasn't see a cousin of the equally talented singer Madeline Bell ?
So sad Joanne died ..... What did she die of don't mind me asking
She was the female voice on Paper Lace song "Billy Don't Be A Hero".
@@mjones4083Yup that is right.😊
@@Tiffany.1970it was cancer.😢

I don't know why, but 1976 and 1986 had some of the best romantic music in the 20th century.
PERFECT! 💞
Will probably never hear music as good as this again.
Thomas Deenihan if you dont, your not searching correct
Brilliant song 🎶🎶

A 70s classic
Great tune, one of those songs that should never be forgotten while dancing under the sparkling lights of Disco mania !!!!
