    I'm a fan of the Housemartins. Heaton has a unique voice - 'wasn't sure what happened after. 'Nice to discover Jacqui and Paul. They are sadly, pretty much unknown here (in Canada). Thanks to a Hull friend, I get to hear them for the first time today.

      I also live in Canada now (Vancouver) but from England originally - and yeah nobody over this side of the pond has really heard them. My wife actually used to live in Hull where The Housemartins / The Beautiful Couth originated from. I saw them live at Glastonbury in 1999. Great to see them back together although with this setup seems to me all they are playing the songs a little too fast, and Paul seems to be singing a bit low?

    Heaton is such a pro. I'm not a fan of his music, but loved him heading over to get Jacqui's mic turned up at 01:48. You can see his perfectionism, his irritation that it doesn't sound exactly right. It's noticeably turned up when she sings again at 2:04. When it's his turn to sing, he moves the water bottle out of the way and lowers the mic stand.

    • @brazenlilhussy5975
      @brazenlilhussy5975 2 роки тому +2

      Spotted that too fella, that's why I think he had that song with Jacqui singing alone (basically) he knows what he wants to hear, and that gives him the chance to iron out anything not sounding right just from the off. He fully admits his control-freakery and being honest, imo some bands dont work *without* a 'dictatorship'. Absolutely fantastic performance here, can't believe I never noticed the Morrisey-esque lilt sometimes present in Paul's singing. (Seen as Paul started before I'm pretty sure, it could be Mozza sounding Heaton-esque!)

Odd because I listened to Morrissey religiously back then, saw him four times in that period. Surprised I’ve not heard more people make a parallel between Paul and Mozza.
