Paul Heaton - You Keep It All In (ft. Rianne Downey) | Later… with Jools Holland (2026)
BBC Music put an old favorite alongside a newer chapter in Paul Heaton's songwriting: a Beautiful South return with Rianne Downey, and a performance of "I Want The Job" from Jenius, produced by the Lightning Seeds' Ian Broudie.
The familiar song drew the biggest audience among fifteen new uploads. "Paul Heaton – You Keep It All In (ft. Rianne Downey) | Later… with Jools Holland (2026)" is approaching 100,000 views, revisiting the 1989 hit from the Beautiful South's debut album. In the comments, viewers compare Heaton's voice with the original recording and pick out how Downey's vocals fit alongside his. Some are encountering their pairing for the first time.
There is discovery elsewhere on the same studio bill. Wiltshire-born alt-folk singer Dermot Henry performs "I Love You, That's All," following his debut EP Aiming Torches At The Sun. His performance is drawing almost as many daily views as Heaton's classic, despite its smaller total audience. Skye Newman, named BBC Radio 1's Sound of 2026 winner, joins Holland for "Ain't No Sunshine," while Chase & Status supply the festival contrast with "Carnage" from Reading.
Across the channel, weekly viewing reached roughly 26 million, the largest total among nearby music-media peers with weekly figures available. Subscribers grew modestly, and daily viewing is above its usual level. KEXP is also having a notably busy day, while GRM Daily's daily viewing is quieter than usual. For BBC Music, the strongest immediate momentum belongs to that Later… combination of a well-traveled song and Henry's newer introduction.
