Just heard his beautiful clear voice singing You Don't Know. :wub: Thanks Brenda. :thumbup:

 

Now singing Let It Go. Think it may follow the MB setlist now.

Oh thanks TT...sounds brilliant.. :dance: ..looking forward to the reports...i love YDK. :wub: it sounds as though everyone is having a great time too doesn't it?

 

To be honest..and i know he sings them brilliantly and lots of people love them...but i would be quite happy if he were to rest LMF now..and leave LIAMOD out all together. :lol:

He sang H&F tonight - hope he leaves that in - it's great live.

 

Yes sounds as if he's mixing it up a bit. He can leave LIAMOD & LMF out for me too. Much prefer Hopes & Fears & TMTW. :dance:

 

Also sang Your Game & Grace & finished with LRN :thumbup:

Plus one other cover that we haven't yet been able to decipher - text from Mary says:

 

Will was all in black, no stage lights on and he looked like a glowing skeleton, he sang a new song which sounded like 'Wet dreams on the beach' (I think that is what she said) but just can't wait to hear more about this tomorrow.

 

 

Great tweets and pics from the girls at Henley, it sounds like he went down a storm and really enjoyed himself on his home patch. :thumbup:

Just been reading the girls' reports - sounds like they had a fabulous night again. The other cover was another John Martyn song called "Dreams by the Sea". :D

 

Tweet from Ash last night:

Will Young at Henley Festival last night was fun and faultless. Loved every minute! Have a look @ http://bit.ly/bJau0I

 

Just one comment:

 

When we were on our way over to tthe restaurant, coming out of the grandstand, there were two couples, and one of the men turned to the others and said "That was great, absolutely fantastic, made you feel good inside" and I thought that was a wonderful comment. Somone else who Spider knew stopped to chat, and one of the men in their party said how brilliant a live performer Will was and said "that doesn't come across on tv, does it".

 

Thanks to MaryW for her report :wub:

FIRST NIGHT REVIEW: Henley Festival

9:12am Thu 8th Jul 10:: written by Justin Burns

A festival experience like no other, Englishness in all its glory, topped off with a popstar performing on a floating stage - lovely.

 

Being my first time at the festival and having preconceived perceptions of it, I walked through the gates and everything I had imagined was realised.

 

Gentlemen in tuxedos, ladies in cocktail dresses, all sipping the finest champagne and vintage wine - in the car park.

 

After grabbing myself a pint of Bitburger from the Adnams Busker's Bar it was time for a wander, as delicate Albert Roux-crafted dishes filled the air, rowers did some lengths on the River Thames and opera singers passionately sung from yachts and punts.

 

The beauty of the festival was the variation of intimate areas all laid out along the banks of the Thames, leaving you free to muse the many contemporary art galleries, listen to jazz by the Kosmos in Club Rendez-Vous, or bands in the bandstand.

 

The grandstand then packed out as Will Young took to the main stage, and the atmosphere went up a notch and more concert-like.

 

Although not previously being a Will fan, I was impressed with his voice and his ability to entertain and build a rapport with the crowd.

 

All was topped off when Blind Date star Cilla Black waltzed past with Reading Football Club owner John Madejski, capping off a perfect English evening.

 

I for one will be heading back in future years for another dose of a festival that manages to encompass all the finer things in life in a very classy way - splendid.
