In fact, it was written by Paul Heaton and Dave Rotheray of the Beautiful South. When performed live, the song was accompanied by a pastiche of a 1970s music documentary, with The Beautiful South appearing as The Heppelbaums.
Classic Heaton... pretending this is a cover by made up band 'The Heppelbaums' and putting it on a covers album! 😂 Actually a Beautiful South original... and fantastic! 😊
Does anybody know who the guest vocalist is on this song? Or is one of the Beautiful South a master at sounding like an authentic country singer? But the voice sounds very familiar, like a well-known country singer.
I love this band but I absolutely can't stand the female singer. I don't know why she just has really bad vibes. Not many people bug me but she really spoils every song she's in. Love jacqui abbot though.
Lifelong resident of Ninety Six here, just found this gem!
Just a fantastic song, Paul and Jacqui and band are brilliant,this song should have been released as a single, fantastic,"that old sidewinder".❤❤👏👏👏
Phantastic!
@@paulmullins9743 Yes you're right. 👍 But Paul & Jacqui are fantastic despite that fact.
@@paulmullins9743oops I thought it was Jacqui, still a fantastic singer and band.
It was released as a single but totally ignored
Simply amazing. I wish music like this was still in the charts.
First time hearing it
Has a 70's feel to it but this genius Paul Heaton can transport his music brilliance to all ages what a superb songwriter
dalla Sicilia........................... wonderful song e amazing band. :))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Dave Hemingway's voice... OMG amazing!!!!!
It’s not Dave singing in this song, he only lip syncs for video purposes👍🏻
@@joehurst7191 Nope!! It's them. Written by Paul and David R and sang by the Paul, Dave and allison.
Dave IS lip syncing (?) for Chip Taylor who was guest vocalist on this track and is credited on the album.
No dave on this one
Chip Taylor singing , the uncle of Angelina Jolie.....fun fact !!
PAUL HEATON BRITAIN'S MOST UNDERRATED SINGER/SONGWRITER IN RECENT YEARS, EVEN ALTHOUGH HE NEVER WROTE THIS.
Song was written by Paul Heaton and Dave Rotheway.
Love the retro video to this...good track...reminds me of The Eagles a little...something on a Radio2 playlist from decades gone by...
Paul un genio

Mi canción favorita. Paul Heaton, cuando por Barcelona
Beautiful South
Great Cher look alike 👍🏻only better
I remember when Willie Nelson and George Jones did this song as a duet. I might still have it on 8-track. Great song!

Chip Taylor

Clássico. Fantástico. A Alison Wheeler está muito linda. Arrasou.
Amo demais
HTF did you keep a straight face filming this? Ps, don't ever grow a tash, Paul lol
Adsulatluy fucking aWesome ......
Who sings the male country voiced vocal on this song. It doesnt sound like either Heaton or Hemingway.
I've always wondered that too. And why isn't Rotheray in the video.
Sounds like Willie Nelson
Tom petty
Its Chip Taylor.
@@steved.9645hip Taylor is Jon Voight's brother, and Angeline Jolie's uncle.
looks like Dickie Davis
Conor Armstrong lol..
Conor Armstrong I'm weak lol I just googled dickie Davis and one image is identical lol
who's the female singer? doesn't look like Brianna or Jacqui
Alison Wheeler, she still sings with The South. She is amazing.
What an old woman
Still got the vocals thou
How much does Paul Heaton' look like Russ Abbott? Its uncanny.
Who is the lady singing? Doesn't look like either Ms Abbot or Briana Corrigan.
Alison Wheeler
Great pisstake of country music, strange southern accent included.
I love this band but I absolutely can't stand the female singer. I don't know why she just has really bad vibes. Not many people bug me but she really spoils every song she's in. Love jacqui abbot though.
