Cast your minds back to that lovely long weekend most of us managed to bag for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and you might remember Cheryl Cole joining Gary Barlow on stage for a little duet at the Jubilee concert.
You may also remember that some people loved that duet… and some people, well, were a little bit sceptical on some of the vocals. But last weekend we discussed the finer details with a bunch of people whose opinions really mattered – and they were Platinum-selling US country-pop band Lady Antebellum, who originally sang the song Need You Now.
Far from getting all possessive over their biggest hit (if you ever listen to Magic FM, you'll know exactly the tune we mean), Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley and Dave Hay wood got rather excited about the whole thing – and said that they were actually beside themselves when the realised that their song was going to be performed in front of the Queen.
The only thing was, no one thought to tell them beforehand, so they only found after Chez and Gaz Baz had taken to the stage on the big day… which means, they couldn't watch it live.
Hillary told us at London's Hard Rock Calling festival, "We couldn't believe [Gary Barlow and Cheryl Cole] covered us at the biggest event in the UK.
"As soon as we heard about it, we went on YouTube and watched it."
Charles continued, "My wife is a huge Royalist so it meant so much to her. The Queen got to hear our song, that's pretty cool. Plus Cheryl is hot so we were pretty happy with that."
Side note: Is there anyone out there who doesn't< /em> fancy Cheryl? Apparently not – even bands from Nashvillle, Tennessee fancy her.
So it looks like the big duet went down very well and frankly, that is very good news. Well done Chezza and Gaz Baz.
