Mr Cool. Terry Hall went through it all, never smiling, always delivering. Lithium. It's a sad and not always beautiful life. I have the deepest respect for Mr Terry Hall. Thanks for listening.
Really sad to hear of Terry Hall passing, he was such a huge influence on us growing up in the UK in late 70s early 80s, be great to hear you play 'The Specials'. 👍
I was gutted to hear terry had passed. I loved the specials. I only seen them a few years ago here in Nottingham. Just before the pandemic. 2019 I think.🤔 Fun boy 3 was great too. I love, "our lips are sealed." RIP.🙏🏻
They did do backing vocals on the second Specials album, More Specials, but it's not them on this track, or in the video. The Fun Boy Three had an all-female backing group at this point, because Terry didn't like the macho atmosphere on all-male tours. The female voice doubling Hall's lead vocal in the chorus is the drummer June Miles-Kingston.
@@mongooz24 Bananarama were on the first FB3 album but this is from their second. This is Nicky Holland on keyboards and backing vocals, June Miles-Kingston on drums; Annie Whitehead on trombone, Ingrid Schroder banging the tambourine at the back, Caroline Lavelle on cello and Bethan Peters on bass.
It's okay but check out the cover by Foxes and Fossils which is on their RU-vid channel. It's so well done (and live) that it sound like a studio production that took months to perfect.
