I personally think Kevin is very brave to step into Marti's shoes and be his replacement. I'm sure there's been so much negativity and comparison to Marti but well done to him for taking on the challenge of being a frontman of a band where for 30yrs the original frontman was basically the essence of the group.
Hoping to see you guys in 2020. Clearly marti pellow isn't in wet wet wet just now. But I feel Kevin is doing a great job keeping the songs alive. Wet wet wet was more than the lead singer it was all the band members who still want to carry on doing what they love and Kevin is an excellent addition bringing his own style on classic songs.
Wet Wet Wet didn't roll over and die when Mr P left. They found themselves a great guy in Kevin and he has helped breathe a new life into the band that I've followed for 31 years. In the meantime MP is away in his solo bubble and personally, it's the best thing that could have happened. All the best to him but the Wets have moved on and it's so much better now.
I tried, I really did try to like it but it is hard when you've heard the original version. This song lost something (few things actually) compared to Marti's version, like its missing a soul, warmth, smoothness even the charm, stage presence is not there too...so sorry man.
Awww 😍 I love this song❤️I’m so glad that Kevin got this second chance in life his talent was wasted in that crap liberty X band he was in😊he well deserves this his voice his gorgeous I’ve never really liked Wet Wet Wet but I do now because of him & his lovely voice ❤️❤️❤️
Liberty X wasn't a 'crap band' they had quite a few hits, which helped Kevin along the way to the place he is now. Glad he's with what is an iconic 80s/90s band.
Marti Pellow was the amazing voice of Wet Wet Wet, Saw them loads of times live & they were brilliant. . The new guy sounds good. But no Marti, no party. Sorry not the same without him. :-( x
If you didn't know you could mistake him for marti pellow plus he actually puts his own spin on bits of the songs too who can do that?????!!! Amazing. I love this dude he deserves recognition. You have millions of supporters kevin God bless you and the band sound great in their harmonies.
@@marksilvester1860 guess you have as much an interest in guitars as i have Mark. i used to own The Guitar Store in hope Street Glasgow in the late 80's and early 90's before selling it to Hohner the German Music Company in 1994. Great days. We were a Warwick main dealer and had regular stocks of the range.
This is the first time I have heard them without Marti. Clearly this fella can sing, but, compared to Pellow, he has all the on stage charisma of a wet cloth and it sounds like a great singer doing a karaoke.. He lacks the punch, the depth and soul of Pellow. Even when he does try and get the crowd involved, it is just perfunctory. But then, that is the difference between a star performer and a guy with a good voice. The most character he showed was when the song was over! It is just flat. Sorry. (For what it is worth, when I listened to Marti Pellow's money-grab album where he covered Wet Wet Wet, that lost its sprakle too. ) Maybe a new album of new songs that he helped write might instill some belief and passion.
It's not wet wet wet without Marti.likewise it's not Spandau without Tony.I think this current singer for wet wet wet is very average,no feeling very limited.
@@lynnwilliams2554 I agree......dont like it dont listen....and to be fair what about the rest of the band, were Tommy Neil and Graeme supposed to just stop playing and do what they love because Marti Pellow has decided he wants to be in his solo bubble.....as far as Im concerned its old news....
Wet wet wet without Marti is pointless...If it wasn't for Martis vocals they would of not been successful... Getting sick of these pale imataters that bands are choosing to replace or step in for their original singers.

His voice is amazing he actually sings better than marti but it was brave of him to join the iconic group .
Great fit for Wet Wet Wet. Without a doubt. And definitely singing well within himself. Good job. 👍
I was ready to boo but they got me to coo excellent I would go and see them for sure!
Simply brilliant! Spread the word, Wet Wet Wet are here to stay!
Terrific

No Marti Pellow... No Wet Wet Wet Kevin hasn’t got the Soul & Passion in his voice. The spark is missing - clearly!
Marti is doing a stadium tour in March and is singing better than ever selling out venues.
Just the introduction of this song blows my mind. Who wrote those chords?! Brilliant!
Greame Clark
Thank you for letting me know what happened to Marti. New guy a good looking lad and can sing so glad they still going :)
What did happen? This man is beyond depressing to watch and hear
SueJane Mandic Kevin is good!
He also won popstars the rivals & was in liberty X I believe his talent was wasted in that band well that’s my opinion anyway
Marti pellow é o melhor esse aí não o substituirá nunca.
I allmost cry🙏❤️
Loved this song. Kevin is so perfect for this role. Yes Kevin!!!!!!!
just wow ... saw them @ phil collins @ germany and never heard of them before ... this singer is even better

Have to agree.
linda demais
Don't think anyone could sing this song like Marti

Top
You look like a popstar and you sound like a popstar. It's a yes from me.
I bet they are well happy with him.
Don't listen to any negative opinions because you are you and your doing it just as good as him.
Not Marti but I still like it. He has his own take on the song
does anyone know what bass guitar clark is playing?
looks like a Warwick Bass
@@derekogilvie6942 It is, with Sims LED’s.

@@derekogilvie6942I love Warwick basses. Played Yamaha and had a Hohner headless bass too. I was a bit of a bass geek in the 90's early 2000's.
Good gig lads pro sound even without Marty 👍
I knew I had seen Kevin of course Liberty x rock bands change lead often why not a pop band
This guy has a decent voice but im Sorry but it's just not the same without Marti...
Nao notei diferença pra mim a musica está como foi lançada

Ele engordou, ficou mais bonito !
Não é o mesmo cantor Kkk. O cantor da formação original saiu em 2017.
Its like seeing a very good karaoke singer. I wouldnt pay to see this.
Who is this guy singing?
Kevin simm known for being a singer from 2000s group library x
He's no Marti.
Wait a minute? You're telling me Wet Wet Wet have replaced Marti Pellow?? You'll tell me Queen have tried to replace Freddie next!
Theres no replacing The Great Freddie Mercury!!! Try as they may
Marti left because he couldn't commit to band....they didn't throw him out. He left
Au secours, marti😢
but where is twomad?
marty looking and sounding great
He looks like he's had a bit of surgery, looks totally different.
Marti left the wets in 2017, after been 30 years with them!
And now you can open your eyes.
Ce n est plus marti pourquoi?
a good singer (but of course not marti), but every new singer of a popular band has his problems to be accepted
Without MP isn't it just a tribute band
No.. i find not
@@Hai2021 of course it is
@@Hai2021 Truth hurts
Wet wet wet was Marty pillow end of, a sham trying to call the band that when he ain’t there
I dont know why bands insist on keeping the name when the members are different. He ain't no MP.
a long haired Marti is missing...
What happened to Marti????
He went solo.
Heroin mainly
It's not wet wet wet without Marti.likewise it's not Spandau without Tony.I think this current singer for wet wet wet is very average,no feeling very limited.
Agree 100%!
I personally think that he’s a good singer & has fitted into the band quite nicely 😊😊
He missed to hit the first note of his song, he was a bit sharp 🤣
not a bad tribute act
Not a tribute act
Think we are all getting a little bit tired of this repeated response.

@@lynnwilliams2554 Speak for yourself.
He’s no Martin Pellow. Sounds average at best sorry.
I have always fancied being the front man for wet wet wet, on this performance I reckon I could pull it off, not the same without Marti
Marti Pellow's changed a bit
Andy Broon He left the band in July 2017. Kevin Simm is now their fantastic lead singer.
For the better.
Kevin is the best thing that happened to Wet Wet Wet.
Wet wet wet without Marti is pointless...If it wasn't for Martis vocals they would of not been successful... Getting sick of these pale imataters that bands are choosing to replace or step in for their original singers.
@@colettemarchington8724 Good god haha.
Sorry, I tried in all my honest heart feelings 😰 Just no.
This is not wet wet wet
This is not a marti pellow,, marti pellow please come back i mis ur voice..
Bem ruim

No no no terrible MP is the voice of WWW
Sorry this guy is a good singer. But marti is the best for me. I feel bored

Nope...not working for me. More like damp damp damp

Suzy Athey He left the band in July 2017. Kevin Simm is now their fantastic lead singer.
