Check out this amazing version of Do Right Woman from one of our incredible vocalists, Sandii Jane Hyland.

Kenneth McCluskey (AKA Derek “The Meatman” Scully) recalls some Commitments movie memories regarding this song. "If I recall correctly we were in Windmill Lane Recording Studios in Dublin and I heard Niamh Kavanagh’s vocal of the Aretha Franklin song 'Do Right Woman, Do Right Man'. It was fantastic. I remember hearing it at the time and being blown away.

Niamh subsequently went on to represent Ireland and win the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993 with "In Your Eyes".
