It's been great reading the comments to this. Confession: I'm guilty of coming up with the idea of this cover while sitting in a pub with Terry around 25 years ago and subsequently produced the track with him. It was recorded in Church Studios in North London on a wet Sunday afternoon, with the video filmed the same day in the same location. The Eurythmics' Dave Stewart, who'd worked with Terry previously and who'd happened to drop by (he owned the recording studio) on the day of the recording, provided the guitar track.
Wow! What a super-group! I remember seeing this as part of a Euro-Trash Euro-Vision Special; that also featured Shane McGowan singing, "What's Another Year". Lovely work.
I just love this! How did I never know about this collaboration till now?? It’s seems like an incongruous song for both of them and yet it works so beautifully well 🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
I saw this clip on Eurotrash in 1997, in their pre-Eurovision special 'A Song For Eurotrash' - it has on-and-off been stuck in my head for 25 years. This video was the first place I came when I saw that Terry had died, and here I am again mourning Sinead. It's crazy and sad that they died so close together and so young. A big loss to Irish music that we're feeling here in England too. Sending love. 🇬🇧 ❤ 🇮🇪.
Two people who used music to say something, and they fucking meant it. As authentic as they come. Together a massive loss, but an example for all of us.
So sad to hear that Sinead passed away today. Devastating and overwhelmed that such a beautiful person has left us. I hope she finds peace now, reunited with her beloved son Rest in peace Sinead xxx
So sorry that it's taken a tragedy for this absolute gem of a duet to surface. I've never heard their version here before but what a legacy to have left us. Fly high Sinead and Terry
This song pulls at the heart strings more then I could ever imagine. Nothing prepared me for the tears that followed after hearing, watching and feeling this song numerous times. Thank you Sinead and Terry for all that you left us in your travels. You will never know how much this song means to me.
Admit that this is the first time I've heard this. Sad, so sad that Terry has left us too soon. Hoping that Sinead is okay, and is getting the love and support that she needs. 🙏😞
Love the way Sinead flutters her eyelids and puts on that lovely smile in the background - so unlike her usual unsmiling persona. Shows she has a sense of humour. Had I not seen this with my own eyes I would have refused to believe that the two of them got together to sing this rather schmaltzy song. So unlike anything you would expect from this combination. Love it.
Snowdrops and daffodils Butterflies and bees Sailboats and fishermen Things of the sea Wishing-wells Wedding bells Early morning dew All kinds of everything remind me of you Seagulls and aeroplanes Things of the sky Winds that go howlin' Breezes that sigh City sights Neon lights Grey skies or blue All kinds of everything remind me of you Summertime Wintertime Spring and autumn too Monday Tuesday every day I think of you Dances Romances Things of the night Sunshine and holidays Postcards to write Budding trees Autumn leaves A snowflake or two All kinds of everything remind me of you Summertime Wintertime Spring and autumn too Seasons will never change The way that I love you Dances Romances Things of the night Sunshine and holidays Postcards to write Budding trees Autumn leaves A snowflake or two All kinds of everything remind me of you All kinds of everything remind me of you
New Sinead O'Connor memories I've never heard of this song of course so it's new. This is absolutely beautiful. Just read other comments in both of these beautiful people are passed away already rest in peace to the both of you thank you for this memory on video.
Sinead and Terry singing this song that was won 50 years ago in the eurovision song contest sang by of course our own 🇨🇮☘️🇨🇮☘️🇨🇮☘️🇨🇮🇨🇮☘️🇨🇮☘️ DANNA. Love the sinead and Terry Version🤗👍..Rest In Peace Terry You may be gone but your not forgotten Godbless you Amen 🌹🌹🌹🌹🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹
This is such a find. I was never a huge Sinead O’Connor fan but since her untimely death I find myself searching out her voice. I love this, and her version of Sacrifice. She was just so diverse, could sing the phone book probably and make it her own. Terry Hall on the other hand, oh my. Our Lips Are Sealed being one of my all time favourite tracks. Our loss is heavens gain I guess.
Bless you both - Sinead Marie you are and still are a great spirit - don’t regret - shine like the star you are - Terry you are an Angel - keep on doing it - I am so sad yet so happy for you both xxx
I love her smirks, and his melancholy sighs. It's as if they found someone more somber than Sinead and then they gave them both a chipper winter tune to sing. LOVE IT! Every bit of it.
This guy could sing any thing ,,,, i have adored him since his beginning ,,,He was much too young to pass xx Thank you Terry you have given us great music , your voice was second to none ,,You were so Special xx
We loved the specials RIP Terry Hall. great cover of that Brilliant song by the Beautiful Dana from the winning song she sang in the Netherlands in 1970 to give Ireland it's first Eurovision win.
I absolutely love this and haven’t listened to it for some time up until today when we had the tragic news of Terry’s passing. It’s such a fitting song and lovely to see Sinead smiling and playing up to the camera. RIP Terry you were a one off
Such a beautiful duet ! The harmonies ❤ Ihave loved both Sinead and Terry ffir a long time .But this duet is stunning ! I first heard it when Terry died but its sio poignant now .
Sorry that I never saw Sinead O'Connor nor The Specials or Fun Boy Three. Damn! Rest in peace, Sir Terry. You've got alot of wonderful company in the great beyond. 🥰😇🙏
This track was played today at the funeral of my x girlfriends mother. Elsie, a beautiful song for a beautiful lady. R.I.Paradise Elsie, gone but never forgotten. Love you Lou
What a beautiful track. So very sad about hearing of Terry' passing. I grew up listening to him and had the absolute pleasure of seeing The Specials at the Scarborough spa in 2019. RIP XXX
Just beautiful , and that gorgeous smile half way through , its so heart-breaking , to think there are both gone now - hopefully somewhere in a different sphere making more music together

Well then Thank you I suppose.
I still love it now.
I just love this! How did I never know about this collaboration till now?? It’s seems like an incongruous song for both of them and yet it works so beautifully well 🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
But I like this wet Sunday afternoon track very much!
I heard this beautiful song for the first time today, after watching Nothing Compares. ❤
RIP Sinead and Terry. Gone but will NEVER be forgotten 😞❤
never sang their hearth, out? let them sing.
just sing
God bless them !☘️☘️
Beauts both ❤
Terry Hall sound man and Sinead what can you say ? ☘️☘️☘️
Can’t believe we’ve lost both of these beautiful people within 7 months of each other Rip Sinead and Terry 💔💔😢😢.
Saaaad!
❤
Two very talented musicians. RIP ❤
If you speak out.. Its funny keith richards bob dylan last forever
I love Sinead's almost schoolgirl smile when Terry starts to sing his verse...it's so natural
She seemed shocked at how good his voice was.
It's his iconic voice, she remembers his voice with the Specials and to hear it first hand well we would all have that smile
Beutiful ❤
He moves his eyes,eyebrows and other facial features to the lyrical and musical timing. Extraordinary.
perv
Two beautiful souls, I never saw Sinead looking as happy as in this video, Terry as cool as ever. A sad sad loss.
She was so innocently and painfully stunning! It's so sad the emotional abuse her mother caused her. She destroyed her own daughter 😢
Still here. And why wouldn't I be? Two of the greatest talents of my lifetime. Singing one of the best songs known to mankind. Official.
Sinead is obviously tickled by Terry singing this song, out of his comfort zone. I flipping well love this.
funny I didn't know who Terry even was and I just thought he was some sorry sap lol
Like two little vulnerable children .. fragile souls but so beautiful. Gentle human beings in a cruel world x don’t ever change
RIP Terry Hall, one of a kind.
Terry was plaintive, sometimes mournful. Always sincere.
God bless him.
And senead also
Sinead's smile when Terry first sings is so beautiful
All kinds of songs reminds us of them, Sinead and Terry gone but loved forever. Longer hair makes a girl more happy.
I saw this clip on Eurotrash in 1997, in their pre-Eurovision special 'A Song For Eurotrash' - it has on-and-off been stuck in my head for 25 years.

Rest in Peace Sinead
Rest in Peace Terry
Will always have this beautiful performance to remind me of you
Me too, so sad
tears here,,,,she was part of my youth,tribe..love her forever.X
Same. That's why I'm here reading your comment and feeling the loss.
So glad I'm not alone... I always pick this video when thinking of Terry. Sending love ❤️
RIP Sinead.💖 Two more of the most talented and influential musicians gone. Heartbroken.😢
I can't believe I only discovered this gem today. Beautiful.
me only today
And me !!!
Me too!
WERE YOU YOU CANT MISS SIR TERRY HALL AT THE BROWN JUG IN NEWCASTLE UNDER LYME IN THE NORTH OF STAFFORDSHIRE
Same here it's beautiful.
Two people who used music to say something, and they fucking meant it. As authentic as they come. Together a massive loss, but an example for all of us.
Every now and then in your life you come across perfection.
This is one of those moments.
RIP to you both.
Had to watch this again today. RIP Sinead O’Connor. Just loved this song with the fabulous Terry Hall.
So sad to hear that Sinead passed away today. Devastating and overwhelmed that such a beautiful person has left us. I hope she finds peace now, reunited with her beloved son
Rest in peace Sinead xxx
Two legends now passed.. may they both Rest in Peace 💖💙
So sorry that it's taken a tragedy for this absolute gem of a duet to surface. I've never heard their version here before but what a legacy to have left us. Fly high Sinead and Terry
Sinead looks so beautiful and lovely when she's smiling.
@Kater Lee
You mean before she went batshit crazy? Is she still alive?
@Kater Lee She even looks waaay better with hair. Why she shaved it, I will never know.
She got fed up with people asking if she was Enya.Which is why she shaved it they don't even look like each other.The mind boggles
"Cheer Up, Sinbad!"
Yeh man !
This song pulls at the heart strings more then I could ever imagine. Nothing prepared me for the tears that followed after hearing, watching and feeling this song numerous times. Thank you Sinead and Terry for all that you left us in your travels. You will never know how much this song means to me.
The whole of Ireland is in mourning.....Rest easy Sinead and you too Terry ....Both gone too soon.....
jesus terry is pure class, he can do no wrong, what wonderful voice.
Admit that this is the first time I've heard this. Sad, so sad that Terry has left us too soon. Hoping that Sinead is okay, and is getting the love and support that she needs. 🙏😞
😢😢😢
💔💔
She has passed away RIP Sinead ❤
Obviously not.
Love the way Sinead flutters her eyelids and puts on that lovely smile in the background - so unlike her usual unsmiling persona. Shows she has a sense of humour. Had I not seen this with my own eyes I would have refused to believe that the two of them got together to sing this rather schmaltzy song. So unlike anything you would expect from this combination.

What an absolutely beautiful song! That sort of little nod and wink from Sinead at the end was irresistibly endearing. So sad that she is gone ! RIP
Omg its these little things caught on camera that are so endearing. I've got such a soft spot in my heart right now for her. Such a gem...

Both had unbelievable voices and brave troubled lives. She was so beautiful

I love her smirks, and his melancholy sighs. It's as if they found someone more somber than Sinead and then they gave them both a chipper winter tune to sing. LOVE IT! Every bit of it.

Two of the best gone within months of each other. R I P Sinead and Terry.
