Possibly the two best singers to ever enter the Idols competition, and they competed in the same year, and incredibly, finished first and second. They were streets ahead of the others that year!
It is superb, but I think some credit must go to the faceless musicians, voice coaches and music director who make them sound so good, as well as to the genius arranger who came up with this arrangement. But most of all, as you say to the timeless, breathtaking talent of John Lennon & Sir Paul McCartney for writing such an incredible song, which stands the test of time. How did they do it?? Pure God-given talent, and application of that talent! ♥️
The standard of talent when these shows first started versus nowadays is absolutely stunning. I remember the nation torn on who was going to win. Both extremely talented and beautiful together
What a trip down memory lane! Still love this, still makes me cry. Gareth Gates had such a sweet voice + Will = magical. I wish they’d made an album together. Each is so talented, but something extra beautiful happens when together. Those harmonies are breathtaking! Wow guys. Best version ever imo.
Watching these videos back after all these years makes me realise how much I underappreciated Will Young's vocal talent. Really nice voice with a lot of unique character.
When I was in my early teens this is the song that eventually made me go and listen to every single Beatles song. Up until that point, the few Beatles songs I've encountered didn't really speak to me like this one did.
Will young is a great singer 👨🎤 for a reason but it’s also not the best song 🎧 in my opinion because it’s so much easier than a good 👍 thanks 🙏 Love it
This song came out when I was 13. When I heard the song I stole my uncles Beatles CD. 17 years later I've seen Paul McCartney 30 times around the world, have a Beatles tattoo sleeve on my arm and am obsessed with The Beatles and Macca beyond belief. I owe this song so much.
I've loved this song since it first came out. I never thought anyone could meet or even better the Beatles version. This, however, by Will and Gareth is superb. I take my hat off to them both. Lovely!.
This reminds me of visiting my husband when he passed away in hospital nearly 20 years ago.Driving to and fro from the hospital it was always on the radio.😢
Love love this song. Vocals, awesome, arrangement awesome, total package on of the best vocals (EVER). What emotion they bring to the song. Thanks guys love u both.
Wrong on so many levels. Gareth was 18 ;) when they recorded this and made the video. And Will was 23! Plus, no auto-tune required, they're both pretty good live singers. Will has proved himself over and over again over the years in his pop career (5 platinum selling studio albums speak for themselves), and Gareth, too, in musicals.
Today Darius (who came third in Pop Idol behind Will & Gareth) passed away and I’d like to think that these are singing this in his honour R.I.P Darius
You'd think well at least this introduces kids to some music from back in the day. It WOULD have when I was a kid but I would say 95% of people who come here not knowing The Beatles work would take this, say it's great & then not listen to another bloody note by the band!
Will young is still releasing studio albums and touring this October, he has just released a greatest hits album. A new studio album next year he writes his own songs too .
@vintagevic1 Songs are reinterpreted with different emotions all the time. I think the longing and melancholy expressed in this remake are exquisite. Apparently I'm not alone since this version, sung by these two lads, topped (# 1) the singles charts in England back in 2002.
bin adding song to my itunes and this came up so a gave it a listen and use to hate this track but now i have grown up i love it. its verry relaxing and soothing and back then i use to be into Rock and punk but not now.

Where else will you find a winner singing with the runner up? Totally brilliant! Will and Gaz are great Ambassadors for the UK!
Will young does effortless singing. Top singer.
Both were amazing at this point. True competion.
Still love this song and loved pop idol - will young is utter wow! one of the best acts to come out of the show.
I love the way these two voices blend in theis song. I think Paul McCartney should be proud of these gentlemen have done with his song.
It is superb, but I think some credit must go to the faceless musicians, voice coaches and music director who make them sound so good, as well as to the genius arranger who came up with this arrangement.

I still think these two should record a duet. Voices are excellent! Well done Will and Gareth!

18 years ago wtf 😲 where's the time gone guys
Who's listening in 2020
Me! Still love it!
USA...yes
Me .... I hate how time passes by .......... Greetings from Germany...
music does not age
Love it... ❤️❤️❤️
I was so mesmerized with Idol as a child... saw you guys win it. 2001 was a tough year.
One of the best performances even after 21 years.
I love their voices together. I think it is beautiful
Will is fantastic. Went to see him last year. He put on a great show.
Will young literally rocking this 😍
Watching these videos back after all these years makes me realise how much I underappreciated Will Young's vocal talent. Really nice voice with a lot of unique character.
2 gorgeous young boys reliving the Beatles
As if The Beatles need reviving.
@@darrenbamford6816 yea i agree they should be left in the past
You will never hear a better rendition of that song anywhere.
Superb rendition but I'll have to say George Michael's was the one for me
This is actually pretty brilliant. They should do an album
Why oh why is this recording NOT on Amazon music???? In my view this is truly one of the all time greatest performances of any song, anywhere!
When I was in my early teens this is the song that eventually made me go and listen to every single Beatles song.
Up until that point, the few Beatles songs I've encountered didn't really speak to me like this one did.
Two fantastic voices love them both and this song really suited their voices
breathtakingly and surprisingly beautiful
For my brother luke. One of hes favourite. Miss you love you luke x
Will young is a great singer 👨🎤 for a reason but it’s also not the best song 🎧 in my opinion because it’s so much easier than a good 👍 thanks 🙏 Love it
Si può fare un capolavoro di un capolavoro?
Brividi dall'inizio alla fine. Lacrimo

This is one of the best versions of this song.
I heard this version of the song before listening to the original. This was top tier talent show that gripped the entire nation. Agenda-free times 😅
I've loved this song since it first came out. I never thought anyone could meet or even better the Beatles version. This, however, by Will and Gareth is superb. I take my hat off to them both. Lovely!.
this awesome rendition from these 2 studs is completely overlooked by the mainstream.
why did they not do more duets? they were good together
Gareth wanted to be more than friends and Will declined, it became awkward
@@OS-yg9fr no
No. Because of companies
@@asselhazel yes they had gey secks n blue jebs a few years after
Bruh
Absolutely fantastic i love their voices together
the pared back simplicity of this is breathtaking. Simply mesmerising.
Without a doubt wills voice is so much better ❤️
True
Gareth a close second and both far better than anything X factor has produced
This reminds me of visiting my husband when he passed away in hospital nearly 20 years ago.Driving to and fro from the hospital it was always on the radio.😢
This is an amazing performance from both of them. :)
supreme British talents ...lots of love from Philippines....
Absolutely beautiful master piece perfection love this song memories ❣️❣️❣️
Will Young
Utter Bliss Voice
Never heard this rendition before, love it. They should get together again
Surrounded by the light that surrounds all darkness.
Nice duet! Very good cover
Love love this song. Vocals, awesome, arrangement awesome, total package on of the best vocals (EVER). What emotion they bring to the song. Thanks guys love u both.
You believe every note Will Young sings, he owns any song he sings.
This is the best cover of this song ever.
Absolutely beautiful
I have always been more of a Will fan, but I love Will and Gareth duet :)
Good lord. Success, fellas.
Wrong on so many levels. Gareth was 18 ;) when they recorded this and made the video. And Will was 23! Plus, no auto-tune required, they're both pretty good live singers. Will has proved himself over and over again over the years in his pop career (5 platinum selling studio albums speak for themselves), and Gareth, too, in musicals.
Pure magic.
2 OF THE FIRST SINGERS TO COME OUT OF THE "VOICE" COMPETITION SHOWS.....STILL GOING STRONG.....GOOD LUCK TO BOTH......BOB FOX, USA
Thought if was Pop Idol?
Live? Who knows but sounds the same anyway. Incredible stuff. Love them both
Today Darius (who came third in Pop Idol behind Will & Gareth) passed away and I’d like to think that these are singing this in his honour
R.I.P Darius
You two melt my heart xxx
Love this version
This song and when i hear them both song alone reminds of my brother luke past away 6 year this month i love and miss him so much all in my heart ❤
20 years ago. Hard to believe. Why does it seem like yesterday?
They do a very nice job together. George Michael killed it singing solo.
The best version ever.❤
best version ever!
They really should link to the original on here.
Beautiful version
how absolutely brilliant !!!
You'd think well at least this introduces kids to some music from back in the day. It WOULD have when I was a kid but I would say 95% of people who come here not knowing The Beatles work would take this, say it's great & then not listen to another bloody note by the band!
Fantastic, I'm emotionally drained
They do this song proud i live it xx
Very beautiful guys!! You sang superbly!!!❤❤Kay,nz
I read where Will Young put Simon COW in his place on the show and Simon apologized to him. Simon said Will was average...........WILL WON!!!!
yes he was theonly 1 with gutsto stand up to sion cowel sopleaesed he won xx
THIS IS THE BEST!!!
actually beautiful
So much passion in their faces!
Peaked at #1 in U.K. on 29 September 2002
Beautiful version never heard it before, thanks!
origonally a US hit The Beatles back in 1970 but was never released as a single in the uk until these two covered it
Love this version of a great Beatles song. But Tony Bennett's is one of the best recordings of any song ever !
Tony Bennett Talked Songs, George Michaels Is By Far The Best Version Of This Song
Perfection and I think Mr Cowell should revisit this little duo
Will young is still releasing studio albums and touring this October, he has just released a greatest hits album. A new studio album next year he writes his own songs too .
My favorite rendition ever!!!!!
Will Young has a much better singing voice. Can reach keys Gareth Gates can only dream of. 😍
How well do they compliment each other

Apparently I'm not alone since this version, sung by these two lads, topped (# 1) the singles charts in England back in 2002.
they sing together perfectly good
They sing this far better than the Beetles😅💛
