The Beautiful South was an English pop group formed at the end of the 1980s by two former members of Hull group The Housemartins, Paul Heaton and Dave Hemingway. Other members were Sean Welch (bass), Dave Stead (drums) and Dave Rotheray (guitar) and a succession of female vocalists - Briana Corrigan, Jacqui Abbott and Alison Wheeler.
The group broke up in January 2007, claiming the split was due to "musical similarities",having sold around 15,000,000 records worldwide. In January 2009, it was announced that the former members Dave Hemingway, Alison Wheeler, and Dave Stead would reform under the name "New Beautiful South" which was later changed to "The South".

I used to work with a lad who was severely autistic. He had a DVD of the beautiful south videos. Within weeks of working with him I knew the words to all the songs. I left the job 7 years ago but For the past weeks the songs have been popping into my head.

Haven't heard this in well over twenty years, but my mind randomly started singing it to me and I had to immediately come here and remember how good it is. Straight into my music playlist, I'm not forgetting about it again.

This was actually the first Beautiful South song I had heard through it being on one of my NOW albums in 1994. I was about 5 years old at the time but had no idea thatJacqui Abbott wasn't the original female vocalist. A year later my Mum bought the first 3 Beautiful South albums in 1995 and I was surprised to learn that Briana Corrigan was the first female vocalist. My friend's Mum was also a raving Beautiful South fan.

Yeah Brianba Corrigan then Alison Wheeler then Jacqui Abbot and as no ones what's happening with Jacqui he has Rhianne Downey just now on tour. I have seen Beautiful South live with Brianna, Alison and Jacqui. In my opinion Jacqui is number 1 and complements Paul's voice. I love his writing style

Jacqui is a legend with such a beautiful voice. Paul's voice is very similar to my own I think he's vocal reach is amazing. I used to sing these at the top of my lungs to all my kids. Now I'm sick my voice is going and it makes me sad. I love this band I love the house Martins it's just great music and in today's generation very underrated 🎼❤❤

This was filmed near Merstham in Surrey, right? It shows Spring Bottom Lane (which is a road near Merstham) It shows a bridge over a motorway, with a slope after it, which looks very much like Warwick Wold Road, which is at the end of Spring Bottom Lane (the other end, being Whitehill Lane between Caterham and Bletchingley. I can't work out where the White Hart/Beefeater was. Unless it's what is now "The Inn on the Pond" in the Nutfield Marsh area?
