First heard this on BBC radio 2.... Graham Norton's Saturday program... I am now infatuated by it. Beverly Knight is amazing. Noel Cowards version is great too.
I went to a marvellous party With Noonoo, and Nada, and Nell It was in the fresh air And we went as we were And we stayed as we were, which was hell Grace started singing at midnight She didn't stop singing 'til four We knew the excitement was bound to begin When Laura got blind on Dubonnet and gin And scratched her veneer with a Cartier pin I couldn't have liked it more (More) I went to a marvellous party I went to a marvellous party I went to a marvellous party I couldn't have liked it more I went to a marvellous party I went to a marvellous party When Laura got blind on Dubonnet and gin I couldn't have liked it more I went to a marvellous party We played the most wonderful game Mo disappeared And came back in a beard And we all had to guess at her name Cecil arrived wearing armour Some shells and a black feather boa Millicent wore a surrealist comb Made of bits of mosaic from St. Peter's in Rome But the weight was so great that she had to go home And I couldn't have liked it more I went to a marvellous party (Went to a marvellous party) I went to a marvellous party And I couldn't have liked it more I went to a marvellous party (Went to a marvellous party) The weight was so great that she had to go home And I couldn't have liked it more I've been to a marvellous party I must say the fun was intense We all had to do What the people we knew Might be doing a hundred years hence We talked about growing old gracefully And Alsie who's seventy-four Said, A, it's a question of being sincere B, if you're supple you've nothing to fear Then she swung upside-down from a glass chandelier And I couldn't have liked it more I went to a marvellous party I went to a marvellous party I went to a marvellous party And I couldn't have liked it more I went to a marvellous party I went to a marvellous party A, it's a question of being sincere B, if you're supple you've got nothing to fear Then she swung upside-down from a glass chandelier And I couldn't have liked it more
When I heard this, with that speed and diction, I guessed she'd go West End. Just saw her in Sister Act, she barely opened those pipes and was still amazing. Turns out she can act as well - as a Birmingham boy, she is my hero.
Bravo 👏 Magnificent rendition and the song is amazing, after all these decades the way this Beautiful and talented woman brought it to modern standards is just phenomenal. Love it.
What do you call this music? I love that urgent brassy and percussive sound. I've heard it in many movies but don't know how to find more of it. Of course this one is excellent! So controlled!

Her diction is something else. Every word crystal clear. When added to the rhythmic precision and perfect pitch, it’s a masterpiece.
I DANCED TO THIS IN MY SHOWCASE-

Who’s here for saffron’s quick step!.🤚🏻 #SaffronAndAj #StricklyComeDancing
Becca XO me! #teamsj #blackpoolweek
This lady can sing anything; sign of a true artist!!!
I went to a marvellous party
With Noonoo, and Nada, and Nell
It was in the fresh air
And we went as we were
And we stayed as we were, which was hell
Grace started singing at midnight
She didn't stop singing 'til four
We knew the excitement was bound to begin
When Laura got blind on Dubonnet and gin
And scratched her veneer with a Cartier pin
I couldn't have liked it more (More)
I went to a marvellous party
I went to a marvellous party
I went to a marvellous party
I couldn't have liked it more
I went to a marvellous party
I went to a marvellous party
When Laura got blind on Dubonnet and gin
I couldn't have liked it more
I went to a marvellous party
We played the most wonderful game
Mo disappeared
And came back in a beard
And we all had to guess at her name
Cecil arrived wearing armour
Some shells and a black feather boa
Millicent wore a surrealist comb
Made of bits of mosaic from St. Peter's in Rome
But the weight was so great that she had to go home
And I couldn't have liked it more
I went to a marvellous party
(Went to a marvellous party)
I went to a marvellous party
And I couldn't have liked it more
I went to a marvellous party
(Went to a marvellous party)
The weight was so great that she had to go home
And I couldn't have liked it more
I've been to a marvellous party
I must say the fun was intense
We all had to do
What the people we knew
Might be doing a hundred years hence
We talked about growing old gracefully
And Alsie who's seventy-four
Said, A, it's a question of being sincere
B, if you're supple you've nothing to fear
Then she swung upside-down from a glass chandelier
And I couldn't have liked it more
I went to a marvellous party
I went to a marvellous party
I went to a marvellous party
And I couldn't have liked it more
I went to a marvellous party
I went to a marvellous party
A, it's a question of being sincere
B, if you're supple you've got nothing to fear
Then she swung upside-down from a glass chandelier
And I couldn't have liked it more
Marvellously done!
Thx for posting.
Here's Noel Cowards original.
Utterly different, but great fun too!

@@Bearded_Tattooed_Guy Oh My God! The original version is AMAZING! 🤩Didn't know! Thanks for sharing!
Who’s here for saffron’s quickstep
Samya Said omg me
Meeer
yeppp
Glad it’s not just me 😂
Saffron who? I’m here for Beverley
I have been looking for this song for AGES!! Thumbs up for those who hear this on Radio 2!
0:25 Where even the boom operator can't help but move his feet.
I miss the halcyon ❤️❤️❤️❤️😢😢😢
That was amazing!!!
The song, the way it's filmed including the behind the scenes ...
Just fabulous Beverly Knight 👑Queen of Soul and R&b 😔 so underrated big fan from the beginning god bless her
Beverley Knight is just brilliant and so was The Halcyon. I was guttered when I heard they would not be making a season 2. Gutted!
The way she built through the song was incredible, my god i was swinging out in my office by the end and I'm on my own in here!
When I heard this, with that speed and diction, I guessed she'd go West End. Just saw her in Sister Act, she barely opened those pipes and was still amazing. Turns out she can act as well - as a Birmingham boy, she is my hero.
J'adore !
Quel dommage qu'il n'y ait pas eu de suite à l'histoire de ce palace. Succès en France....Suis restée sur ma faim...
Doing my dance show to this songg x
You need to take this one in a feat with another handsome male voice❤❤❤❤
A beautiful woman with a wonderful voice. I couldn’t have liked it more...

Saffron's and Ajs dance. Xx
I love this soo much
"COME OOOON !?!?!? ...This girl WORKS SOOOOO HAAAARD !??!?! XXX ;)
Is there any thing this Amazing Woman can not do..!
Holy shit this is good.
I suspect Mr. Coward would look very favourably on this... I think he would have suggested Ms.Knight should have done the fourth and fifth verses too.
What do you call this music? I love that urgent brassy and percussive sound. I've heard it in many movies but don't know how to find more of it. Of course this one is excellent! So controlled!
🎉
Yeeeeees!
Класс!
🙌🙌🙌
noel will be proud
I bet Noel Coward would have loved this
Wish she'd do more rock.
Which style Music is this? I don’t if it is mambo, swing or something else 🤔
Maybe quickstep?
Who came here from aj’s story??
this music remind me of baccano 🤓
Cuphead casino songs be like
and who says talent doesnt come from Wolverhampton? XD
Much better than Bea Lillie's version.
Sorry, but that autotune is killing it. Mrs. Knight definetely doesn't need this shit!
stefan cerin autotune...? that's her voice
James May sure?
i would say no - it's too clean and dead to my ears. i am not saying she can't sing. one of the greatest voices around today.
Fun game: Think of your favourite popular singer.
Beverley Knight is a better singer than them.
