Aw hugs Avis :friends: bless you :(

 

Just to remind everyone..the red button feature can't be recorded with Sky Plus but can be recorded through video..if anyone still has one of those
I expect it can be recorded to anything apart from sky +

 

Beverley Knight is fab live., she totally wipes the floor with any female artist around right now i think. I hope they do get her for The Voice, she would be brilliant.

She is an amazing singer, (now to add to my mad day i have a humungus spider in my lounge, going to get a net and put it outside) (net got but no sign of humungus spider)

 

He just said f*** it on the radio a DJ quickly rushed on air to apologise for any offense!"

 

Mr Will Young please wash your mouth out ..... naughty :lol:

Looks like loads more came for the evening performances. Much more atmosphere and fireworks at the end. I don't think Will could have gone on if he'd have been later, I think he would have had to pull out altogether.

oooh Avis lovely pics :heart: thanks :dance:

ive got the red button on, and Will is not mentioned in the set list :rolleyes:

will keep watching and post if i see him... somehow i doubt it

We were just saying over on Baby D that perhaps Will asked not to be shown - he got through ok live but I doubt he was happy for it to be seen again even though he sounded fine :lol:

I agree. Will is very much the perfectionist.

Young Turns Airwaves Blue During Live Bbc Radio Concert

 

 

Singer Will Young turned the airwaves blue on Sunday (11Sep11) during a concert in London.

 

The Leave Right Now hitmaker performed at Bbc Radio 2's Live In Hyde Park show, but warned fans early on he was suffering with throat problems and would have to shorten his set.

 

Young said, "I'm so sorry everybody but as you can hear I'm afraid I'm having a real problem with my voice, which is really upsetting because I've only ever missed one gig in 10 years. I'm going to do my best for you guys."

 

He sang five of his hit tracks, and partway through his performance Young told the crowd, "Thank you so much for being so patient with me. I really look forward to seeing you again when I'm in finer voice. Oh, and it's f**king raining!"

 

Realising his set was being broadcast live on Radio 2, Young swiftly said, "Oh sorry, are we on radio? Sorry. I was doing really well as well. Oh well, f**k it."

 

A Radio 2 official then interrupted the set to tell listeners, "I'd just like to apologise for some of the language you're hearing at the moment. It's live from Hyde Park but our apologies if anyone's offended."

Think I may be on my own here but it was James Blunt's performance that I enjoyed the most. Could only listen to Lenny Kravitz in small doses & although Gary has a nice voice that's about it for me. He doesn't have the rich tones to his voice that Will possesses & without the other lads most of the songs to me sounded a bit flat.

 

Just my opinion I'm sure lots of others would disagree.

I had a feeling they might not have him on the highlights..what would they show really? of course he sounded fab on the parts he did sing but apparently he was having coughing fits in between, bless him :heart: . He wouldn't want that shown and neither would they i suppose.

well we all know who usually gets prime spots same old faces :rolleyes: I am sure they inspired "Madness"

Sorry see this has already been posted :blush:

 

 

worth another mention!

Not going to post the whole review of the gig as i'm only interested in the Will bit..i'll post the link though for those that want to have a look see. :D

Kudos too goes to Will Young who despite being quite unwell forcing him to shorten his set, conducted a sterling performance, even incorporating mime, much to the audience’s amusement and delight. His set included ‘Changes’, ‘Leave Right Now’, ‘Who Am I’ and ‘Light My Fire’.
