Thanks, jester. I've put the link in my signature, too! :D

Oops, I don't think I've done that yet. Am going to do it right now.

Yes, isn't that a job for the staff? :lol: Good choice of beer - Becks (German)! :D Although, he's opening a bottle of Stella, he doesn't know what's best for him.

Love that, munchkin, thanks for posting. Rowetta is barmy, but she has a great voice! :D

Two songs have been left out of Gareth's list here. What about Evergreen and Anything Is Possible? The quickest covers in the history of anything that's history! :o Talking of covers, what about Roxanne at the Killerton gig? Dot, you are right, but that list is pretty pants, anyway. :lol: They included some b-sides of Will's, but not all, and they didn't take live performances into consideration - well, only one, in Will's case, from 2006. Dur, what about the cover versions that Gareth did for the Will & Gareth tour? ;) And the album track on his first album that was a cover of a Britney Spears album track? Nah, it really isn't worth nit-picking :lol: because that list doesn't prove anything, although it's true, Will has done way more :yahoo: partially because he's done more songs generally, too, and he's had a longer career, so far.

Anyone who's going tonight, have a great time! :cheer:

Congratulations, BYM&Ms!! :D And congrats to the forum. :dance:

Thanks, Dot. :cheer: I think I'm going to Wembley on the 2nd Oct as well, now. :dance: That'll be 3 nights in a row. :wacko: Possibly 4 nights, if I'm crazy enough to go on Friday 29th to Brighton as well. So much for me saving my pennies this time and only going to one. :rolleyes:

I somehow think they may have their lowest-selling album yet. But it'll still sell enough for them to carry on - if they want to.

How could I forget about Your Love Is King? :o That's quite shocking, especially as I sang it in Karaoke last Thursday. I could only think of Will songs that I would know well enough to sing, but they're all men's songs, obviously, and mostly not in my range. But then I thought of YLIK, so I sang that. I was quite tipsy, but the "audience" seemed to appreciate it, even though I had to improvise a bit. :lol: I think Will has probably done more cover versions than G4 and Gareth put together! :lol: But I'm quite happy about that, as they're all so good (with one or two exceptions).

Hey, I've just edited my post (took me a while). How do you like my list? :D Will is such an amazing interpreter of other people's songs. He can write his own, too, though, and there are many I love amongst those.

Why are we talking about Gareth at all in this forum? :wacko: The only thing I can rant about is, why do I have to wait another 2 weeks till I get to see Will live? :banghead: I'm going out of my mind... EDIT: I'm now reading through that thread that started this whole petty argument. I have to say I can't stand it when newspaper articles big someone up at someone else's expense and being totally inaccurate with it as well. It really annoys me. I mean, isn't there plenty of excellent stuff to be said about Will's music and talents without resorting to dragging up comparisons to other musical acts from talent shows? :wacko: I couldn't care less whether Will or Gareth had done more covers than the other. :wacko: It would be really hard to find an accurate figure for that, anyway, especially if you include one-off live performances ("Doncha" was one of them). In fact, because I couldn't care less, I'm going to list my favourite cover versions by Will (and boy, there were quite a number left off!) - 2002 I Won't Dance :wub: Beyond The Sea (this was a b-side as well, shamelessly left off the comparison list on the previous page :P ) Just The Way You look tonight (one-off, beautifully sung in Covent Garden :wub: ) Summertime (CBBC Proms in the Park) Beat Out That Rhythm On A Drum (CBBC Proms in the Park) Signed, Sealed & Delivered (Will & Gareth Tour) Fields of Gold (at a charity do in a church) They Can't Take That Away From Me 2003 Roxanne (Killerton - he also sang a Stevie Wonder classic, but the title of the song escapes me) A Nightingale Sang In Berkley Square :wub: Love The One You're With 2004 Hey Ya (fabulous) You're Welcome To The Club - genius! Go To Hell I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know Papa's Got A Brand New Bag (with James Brown) I Couldn't Love You More (this involved some excellent tambourine playing ) In The Stone 2005 Blowin' In The Wind (with Ruby Turner and Jools Holland + his orchestra :dance: ) Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B Love For Sale :cry: :heart: Happiness 2006 Doncha Blame It On The Sun :wub: :cry: :heart: That's not even all the covers he's done, it's just a list of those I particularly like. Something megham wrote in that thread in the Darius forum struck a cord with me: Peace, everyone!

Fantastic pics and reports. I like the photo where Will sits on Ashley! :o :lol: Arrrgh! How will I ever manage to wait another 2 weeks!!

You're quite right! I thought it looked really odd, and that's why!

Suggy, you need to edit your post again, it was Stronger, Lovestruck and Friday's Child that he sang with Joseph & Co, and then you repeated Lovestruck and Friday's Child. :lol: Anyway, that's going by what "fr1day5ch1ld" (Beth) posted. :) Sounds absolutely fantastic!

Thanks very much for that Lainey! I've started reading the 53-page thread :o on Devoted! It'll take me forever. Toni xx

I think I've changed my mind about reading spoilers. :lol: I have to see how long I last, but I'm all excited now, especially after hearing Will talk about it on Capital radio last Friday (just heard the mp3 now). :cheer: Toni xxx

I'd be very interested to see some figures, actually. :) Toni xxx

Yes, she has an amazing voice. I have 3 of her albums, my favourite being Live At Blues Alley. R.I.P. :(

I hope they're not going to show anything on regional telly that won't be on GMTV, as I can only get GMTV.

Yes, but it's quite appropriate, as the tour is going to have a retro feel/theme, so you'd expect the merchandise to be retro, too! :D

I'm a tryer, too. Have entered for Brighton, as there's no meet & greet for Wembley. :( I wonder why not. <_<

Love that picture, thanks for bringing it over, suggy, and thanks to Lizzie for the artwork. :)

That picture (the one in the Times) is a lot better than the front cover. But I'm not a lover of the mean & moody look. I want a guy to be nice to me, not mean. :P

Love the title of this thread, suggy! Have you all noticed that the Sun just can't print anything without making at least one mistake? There are no skulls on the pants, it's anchors! :lol: Will's sense of humour is priceless!
