I'm really pleased he's doing Glastonbury again. cheer.gif I reckon the Avalon environment suits him.

Hopefully we might get to see something of it.

Jo Whiley and Dermot O'Leary are live at the Glastonbury Festival 2016. They've got intimate live performances backstage in the BBC Music Tepee from Will Young and Travis. There's also interviews with the biggest stars including Tom Odell and Andy Burrows plus Suggs drops by after he steps off the Pyramid Stage after performing with Madness. The guys from Turin Brakes drop by and Jo catches up with Grammy nominated Corinne Bailey Rae and US singer-songwriter Elle King. Jo and Dermot also chat to Basil Brush about what it's like for families visiting Worthy Farm for the iconic four day event.

Thanks for bringing over a sample of the tweets munchkin. What a joy they were to read. cheer.gif :

From the Sun.

'Will Young was far from pants during his set on the Avalon Stage - even though he sang in them.

Arriving in a red and white stripped dress, he told the crowd: 'if you remain as wonderful as you are, I will remove the dress at the end and throw it into the audience'.

He kept to his word, whipping if off later to give the cheering crowd an eyeful of his extra tight Y-fronts.

His hour-long set was one of the highlights of the weekend, including tributes to David Bowie and Prince as well as his own classics such as Leave Right Now and Light My Fire.

More brilliant tweets, all the more special as these aren't from diehard fans.

Will Young: Glastonbury's finest voice

I mean, when discussing this year's Glastonbury line-up people have discussed Adele having pipes as crystal as a winter's morning, but those people clearly have never seen Will Young. As we all witnessed yesterday on the Avalon Stage, the guy still has one of the best voices in British pop.

Strangely seen as a kind of contrarian character in the reality TV world - a man who famously turned his back on that world - watching Will Young crooning, dressed in a pink dress inspires a unusual sense of defiance and pride in the 21st century alternative music fan. But the feeling is largely its a feeling of "oh shit, this is actually a great song", and it's always satisying hearing a perfect voice gliding wonderfully through tight tunes.

My night was totally made when Will Young took his clothes off !!!! #Glasto2016 #Glastonbury #willyoung pic.twitter.com/mP9Jw2pcT1

'Leave Right Now' is pretty much f***ing stunning. So easy on the ears. Objectively lovely to listen to. I hope it doesn't align with his views in the referendum.

Don't believe that he's ace? Then just watch a bit of this Cyndi Lauper cover from the weekend.

Yep. Still can't see what all the hype surrounding Adele is about. She's a good singer but.....

Pity the masses missed out on Will's set.
