I just wanted to express my thanks for the copies of the old newspaper and magazine articles (and some pictures )for the new Devoted site. I really enjoyed reading them all again, lots of stuff I had forgotten about. http://forum.willyoung.biz/will-chat/newsp...es-old-and-new/ Thank you. Elaine x

All Time Love at the Royal Variety Performance in 2005, where do the years go! Doesn't he look absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for responding about Chrissy, pleased to hear she is all right.

I remember seeing a large picture of Will and Charlotte in the newspapers relating to the karaoke duet. Her parents run a B&B, they were on the Channel 4 'Four in a Bed' series a few years ago. Not sure if they owned a pub, maybe the B&B was in one, I can't remember. I do know they didn't come across very well in the competition. The karaoke was definitely in one of her relations pubs. I will try to remember to look for the photo. Do you remember Will doing a Royal Variety Performance (ATL) where they kept him waiting in a corridor for hours? He was with Charlotte then, I hope they kept in touch. Thank you for all the wonderful video clips and memories. I enjoy these threads. Can I ask where Suggy is? I do hope she is all right.

Do you remember when he sang it on CDUK (see link below) using the new toy, which sounded like a megaphone? I'm relieved he gave up on using that and took to playing a tambourine instead. :D Fantastic song with an amazing video, which I never tire of watching - so incredibly clever and quite brave. Performance on CDUK:

I believe so. I would love to have been at the Mermaid too but I was fortunate enough to see Will singing Fine Line at Stoke (?) it is such a brilliant song to hear live. Friday's Child is one of the best 'summer' songs to drive to isn't it, with the windows open. Not advisable during this awful fog. :)

Great to see these videos again, thank you so much. I do like your idea of the Singles Recaps. Friday's Child is wonderful and I love the way Will has changed it in his performances. Off topic but I listened to the old albums yesterday, they are all brilliant and Fine Line is still one of my favourite songs.

I really enjoyed it and it was a great evening with the buzz on site. So unexpected, who knows what else is planned. So good to hear RUTH again and I was pleased Jo said who was singing it. That alone was worth texting a pound donation for Sport Relief. There are some photos and a video clip on BD, Will looked very colour co-ordinated and very funny in his red hat with a sweat band over the top. I have wondered if the lady who knits and sells the hats does it for charity, I can't remember whether Will said this. He did say she sells them at a Post Office close to his home in Cornwall. Shame the camera wasn't working, very frustrating. I wonder if we shall see some official photos of tonight's event.

Thank you for posting these videos, always such a delight to watch.

Coincidentally, I was clearing stuff out today and came across the official cassette (remember those?) of this song, also a couple of 'You and I', which is still a favourite. I think of Will apologising to Macca for the recording.

I hope you popped over to BD Chrissy and read the birthday greetings for you.

When will this information be released please? Fingers crossed the album will be included.

Thanks for this, I really enjoyed the programme too and I look forward to Wednesday. I hope Will's contribution is more than they have used to advertise it though, although we know he won't be singing of course. Just hearing his voice gives me goosebumps.

Rather belated Happy New Year greetings. Is Devoted down for everyone else today please, or is it just happening to me?

:D He sure has, I think he says whatever comes into his head when he is asked questions he doesn't want to commit his answers to - such as 'going on holiday to India to find himself'. I doubt very much that is true. He must be more than ready for a good long break though, I don't know where he finds all his energy. I think he will be bursting with enthusiasm with his new label when he returns. :cheer:

Thanks Jacqui, that is better! Some great comments aren't there, I would like to think Will reads them too.

Thank you both very much. I have tried to get into Twitter but it shows the last post as 3 October so I am not sure where I am going wrong. Mary is sending a text to Anne in case she is not already aware.

Devoted is down again for me, is this the same for anyone else please? I am looking forward to reading more of those fantastic reviews and tweets for Cabaret.

I haven't been able to get on for hours. I hope Andy can fix it this evening before the reports are due but has he gone to London with Anne?

Thanks Ros, is there anything on Facebook/Twitter about last night's performance please?

Good to have people to chat to and thanks for the great hits information Chrissy. Press night last night at Southampton WOW! - I need to know more. I hope it was a full house and went as well as all the previous nights with a standing ovation. Please keep us updated, this is my only connection. Ros I can't get on using Safari on my ipad, or the phone - how strange. You are so lucky! Enjoy tonight's performance all those who are going.

I understand the people with AOL and Google Chrome can get into the site. I am not so lucky but hopefully Andy is not pulling his hair out and we will be back soon.

Thanks Diz.....felt a bit lost today. :( I can't get into Twitter so I appreciate your news. Elaine xx

That is strange isn't it, maybe you are right about the release. I never realised there were such strict regulations to be honest. I must check on how many people have looked at them. Still nervous about the charts, I hope Jealousy did well at the final push.

Yes I can Susan thank you! Sorry I have only just read your post.

Sunday you are really treating us with these YouTube clips, thank you so much.
