I don't know how many records Paul da Vinci sold but with a voice like that he should have been a mega star,what a guy and what a voice even to this day not many people can hit these notes he did
It´s been so hard for me to discover tonight that my favorite song of all times, since when I was nine years old it´s not from The Rubettes. This man, Paul Prewer (Paul DaVinci) is THE REAL VOICE. Totally unknown for me, I´m surprised, confused and
feel very very sad for him. He is the VOICE. And fery few people know that. HE MUST BE RECOGNIZED and receive all the merits he deserves. Thank you, Paul for the present of the most wonderful voice for me of all times. Your voice really impressed me like no other in the world when i was a child...and now you did it again, 42 years on. If i haven´t seen this video
tonight, I would still be thinking that was processed. And finally I discover that your voice it´s original, natural, genuine and pure. And all this been 65 years old. I have no words, Paul. Thank you, for exist, and bring me the most wonderful memories
of my live each time I listen your song, your voice and your falsetto. You will always be part of my best feelings.........forever.
I knew it from day 1.
no you didn't.
i was disappointed to find out after all those years that it wasn't alans voice at all :(
Why didn't he get more recognition for his work
I feel exactly the same buddy.. incredible!!
He can still hit those high notes after all these years!
Having attended a family wedding at the weekend i had no idea paul was booked to sing. Wow what a treat this was i can't even begin to describe what it was like to hear paul sing live.
sooooo wounderbar paul first time j here you and this wounderfull record i was 15 yers old 1974 and i was to discotet and i love this song direcktly and i lisen to sugar baby love even today i meet my first love on this disco thi evning they play this record and today i am 63 year thank for many memmories paul ,,,,micke,gävle in sweden
Had the pleasure of meeting Paul at Warner's Dovercourt in the 80's. Very self-effacing, unassuming Man, with a fabulous voice. I used to do the 'Green Bar' after hours, singing and so on, and after the Rubettes were on, he came up and entertained us there too. Had the pleasure of playing guitar/keyboards for him on a couple of songs. GREAT guy!! Thanks Paul!!
Yes that's the "real" voice .....we saw him on a Cruise ship a couple of years ago, chatted with him and he told us the story behind the "uncredited" song........nice bloke too.
I cannot believe that voice. Thanks for posting!
Should have been given more recognition than what he got
Bickerton & Waddington (composers) tried to sell the song to existing groups but all turned it down. So they decided to publish the demo recording (by studio musicians). In the mean time they put a group together. The first to be invited were the studio musicians. Nearly all of them said no, including Paul; therefore Alan Williams took his place. I think only John Richardson (the drummer) said yes. All their other records were really played and sung be the Rubettes as we know them. No fraud!
Yes I have also seen those clips, but, be assured the original record was produced with Paul's voice. There is a lot more to that song than just THAT top falsetto section - Paul was able to reach all the top and lower notes in perfect tune which, at that time, the other singers were not able to do 40 years ago.
I used to be able to hit those notes in my 20s but at 51 my falsetto has dropped a bit!!!! Would still never get anywhere near this though even when I was young ! Brill performance
THE RUBETTES. .. PAUL PREWER. DA VINCI.....SUGAR BABY LOVE........... WE CAN SEE PAUL AFTER YEAR SINGING THE ORIGINAL THEME... FAMOUS. OVER THIS YEAR'S. INCREDIBLE. VOICE FALSETTO. UNIQUE. .IN THE WORLD. ... CHART NUMBER ONE. MY FAVORITE. LOVE IT
LOVELY ❤. GREAT. VOICE
I prefer Alan!
It always amazes me how effortless he hits those high notes!
He keeps his falsette voice. Good for him. I used to listen to this song that my mother had in single.
Fabulous! Always has been one of my favourite pop songs.
Amazing
LOVE LOVE LOVE PAUL DA VINCI
Paul that is outstanding! I love the original and that performance.
Despite being recorded so many years ago this song has become a real CLASSIC! I live in Austria and Sugar Baby Love is played at least a once a week all across Mainland Europe. And, by the way, there is a lot more to Paul's music than just this song.
One of my favourite songs when I was a teenager. Still is.
I will try to sing along (very sure) one day..hahaha...I'm 70 and met Paul da Vinci in Aachen Germany 1976. I'm Indonesian..
Pure class
A voice with excitement!
Super najlepsze wykonanie
Hi John, you will be pleased to hear Paul has been very busy of late doing all types of shows and is really enjoying himself. Find him on FB and try and get to a gig.
Does Paul have any thing to do with the Rubettes or did he cut off the contact with the group he never credited with his golden voice
😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
There is absolutely no question about it! Paul recorded the original song as a Demo track which was later performed by a group created to perform it. The Rubettes' singer couldn't reach anywhere near the top notes so the company distributed the 'original' voice of Paul. I have known Paul since he was 14, and we were singing together in a schoolboy group before he turned professional.
More than 40 years later and Paul's voice still amazes me: Happy Days!
I was the guy who booked Paul Prewer ( Da Vinci) for the session with John Richardson ( drummer) I worked at ATV music .. booked session musicians for Wayne Bickerton who wrote Sugar Baby Love with Tony Waddington.. I personally went on to have many hits myself No 1 & top ten in the states on Billboard .. Paul had an amazing falsetto..
See I was lead to believe that Paul sang the falsetto and Alan sang the rest. That was in 1974-5 ish. The Rubettes were the first live band I ever saw live. I was sitting in the second row with my mum. Alan sang the song brilliantly and when he waved to me I was in heaven....that SMILE! Iwas about 11 at the time.
Same here.
How amazing - what a brilliant memory.
no paul sang the entire song
Love it…for ever.👍😂
God what a voice.
Must say I love 😍 the song you the song by Paul not the so called lead singer Allan just a fake keep going on with the singing 🎶
Brilliant simply superb
This is is superb, and properly live!
Well, the voice is live anyway.
Amazing.Well Done Paul.
何故日本で、the Rubetts があれほど、名曲を、発表したのに、それほどプロモートされなかったか。わかった気がします。ありがとうございます。🐈🎵✨✨✨✨🦊キツネだお🎵♥️
i feel that it is so sad that he was never credited on the single as being the true vocalist of sugar baby love.
Love 😍 the song still going strong
He is credited on the new releases of SBL. Finally.
Just fab.... ❤
Great Voice !!! WOW !!!!
Great voice.
Gosh. This was news to me. I have always taken it for granted that The band formed performed it on the record. Thanks for letting me know. Still singing it beautifully.
He is still doing it. fantastic!! Respect!
GREAT VOICE!
Wonderful song....Great voice 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻‼️
he got me in to music and singing the way he sings thanks paul
Go Paul go!
God bless you Paul. You still got it. Dude You ROCK!!!!! I wish I able to sing like you. I kind of envy you but in a good way. Thanks ggspotter for the upload. You brought me back many great memories as a youngster. They were an istant hit. This song should be immortalized in a time capsule as a legacy of mankind. La haaaaa.......hahahaha.....ohohohohohoh........Yeah Baby!!
Blimey!
hi Steve, yes it is a classic and I really enjoyed the gig I saw him at although there were hardly any people there sadly as it was the first time YESTERDAY ONCE MORE held their 70's weekend at Brean Sands Unity Farm. However, he went down really well and was a true star with an amazing voice. I do have some more clips (some uploaded) for you to enjoy. I wish he played live more, I would definitely be happy to pay to see and hear him on a more regular basis.
WOW. This song if from my infancy, when I was 3 o 4 yes I've listen to this song so many times on my dad car.. amazing voice !
just great
Absolutely the best voice for this song and many more.
Awesome Paul, Shame you never got the credit you deserve. We remember tho' :-)
He'd have been better than the mime merchant Allen was a load of crap
Paul Da Vinci was a soul of the Rubettes !
ruclips.net/video/jJvCXdYyRuk/видео.html&ab_channel=TopPop
This is the first I have watched this man sing HIS song. So amazing.
Fordítva! 😳 Rubettes lopta el Paul da Vinci dalát, 1:39 anno!🤦♀️☹😪😪😪
I remember me at the end of 70's in Joubert Park (South Africa) and this music playing at the "FONTANNA". Me 9 years old at the time....and my dear father playing chess...Good times
Great vocal performance, amazing range,
Yes. Paul really provided the vocals for Sugar Baby Love.
Great voice, song! The Rubettes did it fantastic well too, with their own great voice!!! And BTW: The Rubettes aren't fake!
Lopás! 😪 Visszaélés az eredetivel!😪😳 Becsapása millióknak, évtizedeken át!🤦♀️😡
Still doing the most amazing falsettos at 65 years old !!!! Congrats, Paul !!! Great voice !!!
Can still sing it!😮
I didn't know that nice one Paul
Это просто Гигант!
Моё почтение и любовь❤!
8 people made fools of themselves trying to sing this doing Karaoke and 56 people knew when to keep quiet and let Paul Da Vinci sing it :-) Amazing voice!
Thank you.
Paul is simply phenomenal.
esta musica é demais apesar de ser criança qdo começou a tocar hoje eu curto com meus 46 a. e amo esta musica ouço umas dez vezes por dia é demais
Его фальцет не перепутать с другим. Да, это он пел ее в молодости.
WOW
very good
talentos assim aqui no Brasil ,passariam fome ,pois infelizmente só fazem sucesso as músicas de 5ª categoria,isto é se poder ser chamadas de música e cantorzinhas que tiram a roupa!
The TOTP performance was playback sung by Alan Williams. It exists here on RUclips. Have a listen to it yourself. Compare it to Williams voice on 'Tonight' or 'Little Darling'.
It's Da Vinci on the record, Williams on TOTP.
yep ! 100% correct !... go to the top of the class!! ( that WAS praise,..not sarcasm,.--- it,s hard to tell on comments on y.t. sometimes! lol) xxx
very good Paul can't wait to see you work with my daughter Amie
Alan Williams sang 'Sugar Baby' live during performance and recorded the track used on top of the pops. Paul Da Vinci's voice is used on the 'Sugar Baby' love single - but not on the album. Alan Williams was an excellent choice as front man for the Rubettes and Paul Da Vinci has a lot of success as a session vocalist. His voice can be heard on many records that made it into the top twenty. His vocal range is amazing. He wanted success as a solo star. It is true that Sugar Baby Love was the only no 1 hit single for the Rubettes group and the record uses the Voice of Paul Da Vinci - the record was not selling until the group led by Alan Williams appeared on top of the Pops - call it team work.
I believe the song was offered to several groups who all turned it down so it was decided to release the demo version with Paul singing & create the group afterwards, this happened with Brotherhood of Man, & Edison Lighthouse where Tony Burrows sang the first hit & the group was formed later.
👍🏽Yes that's it ...
wow what a guy
he was in my loacl last night blasting this out, funny night with a few sherbert's onboad
Saw The Rubettes live twice and Alan sang this song as good if not better, so ... Alan even challenged the audience to do the high-pitched vocals, saying "what's the matter ? Can't you do it ?" They're both still great singers at their age.
Alan é melhor
Alan never sang this
he mimed it😂
@@lillianchristina4938
He didn't even sing it
@@S-O-T Errou . Após 40 anos foi feita justiça: Alan também gravou Sugar Baby Love e em 1974. Ainda hoje canta em concertos . Alan é um artista completo, acompanho sempre, trata-se de um show man . Ele não é um simples artista.
Se informe pelo Wings of Pegasus no RUclips, foi feita uma comparação de vozes e confirma a voz de Alan na versão The Rubettes.
@@S-O-T Se informe
Mega voice!!! Just not charming like Alan. 👏👏👏👏
🙏🙏🙏😳😳😳👍👍👍😪😪😪Bocsànatkérést Neki!🌹🌹🌹😇😇😇❤❤❤
Saw him last month what a talent if you get the chance peoples go see him well worth it
of course Paul Da Vinci sang Sugar Baby Love.... He was the only singer at the time with such a high voice in the entire world... Unfortunately he was out of the Rubettes before it became a hit and could not enjoy the success....
Not quite accurate. He refused to join the Rubettes. This song was recorded by session professional musicians including Paul Da Vinci.
This guy's got a great voice, he should have been in the original line up, the music industry is a stranger machine.
He was given the option but turned it down! Thank goodness otherwise we wouldn’t hav3 had 5ne joy of Alan Williams
Ripper tune.
En america latina preferimos a alan aunque sabemos que esta, cancion no la cantaba, el, pero, su, mimica, le dio, magia cosa que este cantante no la tiene!! ;!!!
good
Correct!
👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Briilliant voice.Real Talent.Not like these X Factor and BGT wannabees.
matt cardle did a version of sugar baby love n he nailed it m8!!
Hey people! You can hear a Paul Da Vinci's version of Sugar Baby Love from 1985. A great version really. I love Paul Da Vinci's voice!!
And so do I
Eu prefiro com Alan
@@lillianchristina4938 Alan sólo fue la imagen, la voz que escuchas en la grabación del grupo es la del señor Paul Da Vinci. 😊
@@milyideascreativas7908 Alan canta perfeitamente ao vivo, prefiro ele. A versão na voz de Alan é perfeita. Alan é um artista completo, especial. Não gosto de Paul, grita muito.
Esplêndido!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I've heard Alan singing it live on stage - & in my opinion he's better. You are talking about the recorded versions - I am not!....
all on Playback for 40y and at last I listen LIVE congratulation
softlad
There was no Rubettes it was a session band until they created the Rubettes to front the song
Who can explain, why in the 70-s his voice was recorded, but in all the videos was the group The Rubbettes?
He left the Rubettes straight after he recorded this song with them.
👏👏👏👏👏👏😚😚😚😚😚
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🌞😊❤🙋♀️
高音部健在ですね 素晴らしい
No miming here!
Both Paul and Alan are brilliant singers. I think the girls liked Alan more and that probably made the difference.
That's not the reason why Paul never fronted the Rubettes, he was under contract as a solo performer at the time, so couldn't join the band. It would be very true to say that The Rubettes were the first Milli Vanilli act with Alan Williams miming to the vocals of Paul Da Vinci.
@@Bill1951au hahaha milli vanilli !
How can you love someone who is a phoney
Concordo plenamente! Alan ❤❤❤
Concordo plenamente. Alan lindo e carismático fez toda a diferença!!
Alan lo canta muy bien , solo que el tiene una voz más dulce ,lo escuché cantar acapela. Y paul lo hace más alto también lo escuche hay un video donde canta cuando es joven a mis oidos ya parece ópera . Sin embargo en la voz de Williams suena dulce y amerita el sentido de la letra. Es cierto el falsete de paul es buenísimo 👏 pero a mi me gusta alan williams como lo canta. El también lo canta y a mi parecer le sienta bien por tener una voz dulce. Es mi opinión 😊😊❤
Il la fait toujours aussi bien qu'en 1974 ! Mais à l'époque les fans des Rubettes ne savaient pas c'était lui sur le disque ! Sur Tonight il fait seulement la voix aigue (falsetto), pour les suivantes c'est Alan.
Não gosto de Paul
Yes, he is the real Mr Sugar baby Love....
La canzone di Alan James Williams sugar baby love is of Alan the vooce voice Real vocalist of rubette, Alan James Williams mine rubette, very rubette together jayadev John Richardson, is very king of pop rock and all music Paul da Vinci, who is?
