sGpC5IvKaLA This was my lockdown song :wub: I love everything about these lyrics/vibe/message and the groovy 70s clothes ^_^ I can't find it now but during lockdown I found a version by a group of New York musicians who all recorded a part of the song while socially distanced and then put it together on one track. In all of the covid darkness -that video had such a positive message. :wub:

Also really nice to hear him talk about Jonny - if not by name but by reference. :heart:

Watched this today -thank you for the link Tess ^_^ The venue looked amazing -what a beautiful building and amazing lighting effects. Robbie looked and sounded amazing. Powerful and confident. I didn't sense any nerves from him at the start -just a sense of wonderment how beautiful the setting and orchestra were. The orchestra were absolutely fantastic -it must have been amazing to hear that live in the hall. I really enjoyed listening to him talking and explaining about his life and having fun with the audience. That is his forte -he's so good at picking up on characters and has a lovely story telling style. ^_^ I thought Road to Mandalay was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL :yahoo: I listened to it three times just so I could hear the orchestral arrangement again. If Guy was responsible for that and indeed any of them - then he's amazing. Loved Millenium - my favourite song on the album, loved No Regrets, and Eternity. It was good to hear Bodies and I always enjoy She's The One and Angels. It was so good to see a mature performance with an amazing orchestra, hearing his stories and his candor on mental health. He really was two decades ahead of his time with some of these lyrics. I could honestly listen to him talking all night he's such an erudite and inspiring speaker. Good to see Steve Sidwell there again- looking exactly the same as he did 20 years ago :o Wouldn't it be nice if he could perform a duet of Eternity with Geri Halliwell/Horner?

Each person will have their own opinion on it - I heard the same argument on the radio today when they were reporting on what the Head of FIFA said. Great Britain certainly has a lot to answer for historically as do a lot of other countries. Ultimately he'll do whatever he sees fit as always.

Maybe too much time has passed now? What a missed opportunity -_-

You're the Why is a very Beautiful song. :wub:

:heart:

and to publicly acknowledge how much she did for him is really lovely.

Looking forward to watching this in total :cheer:

I'm sure that gig will be amazing -the building looks iconic.

Love Madness! They came to Epsom Racecourse a few years ago -we went to see them -they were great :cheer:

I can't help but think that it's a mistake to perform in countries like Qatar - Rod Stewart has publicly come out this week to announce that he turned down £1m to perform there and I think he's right. That's my opinion but the fact is it's there and I shall enjoy watching England as always and rooting for them.

Thanks Tess -it does sound like that could work -I shall give it a go ^_^

So is that a record then to have performed in two consecutive World Cup finals? :unsure:

Yes -he's brought out a new album only a month ago elisabeth. ^_^ I've got songs of his on my Ipod from various albums over the years. My Dad was a big Neil Diamond fan so I grew up listening to his songs. My Dad also loved Johnny Cash so I know loads of his too. :lol: David Essex is great too.

Thanks Tess -you can't buy a copy but I added it to my Amazon Music list. ^_^ Just trying to work out how I can get that onto my Ipod

Is there anywhere we can still buy UTR 1 does anyone know? I think I've said before I've lost my copy and really miss listening to those songs. Or can someone remind me please -you can get songs from youtube onto your Ipod can't you? How do I do that please?

Gosh -my favourite artists are way back from the 1970's :lol: but brought forward too. One of my favourites in Gilbert O'Sullivan because of his amazing colloquial, beautiful lyrics. He's still writing brilliant music well in his 70's and i have modern music of his too, not just the vintage stuff. I love Squeeze for exactly the same reason. My favourite genre is Soul Music - mainly from 1970s/80s - so I'd list Isley Brothers, Chilites, Detroit Spinners, Detroit Emeralds - I love the silky smoothness of the music, the positive lyrics. Also a big fan of Brian Wilson/Beachboys and the later stuff of Frankie Valli and Four Seasons. Of up to date artists I would say probably Bruno Mars. He never seems to release a bad song. I've always been a fan of interesting lyrics that touch me -hence the connection to RW.

Looks like London to me Elisabeth

I wonder how he can address it in the film though? I guess they have to allude to it not state it as fact. :unsure:
