I think it's only just okay and I certainly didn't/won't buy it.

I'm also doing a bit of clock watching (when I should be doing some work!). :blush:

I know. I copied the actual quote into the memory and added it "by hand" so to speak. ;)

Thanks, TT. :) I know about the gallery pics not showing up, that's why I posted them as links. Go on, you have to do "D" now. :D

:D

Just a little something for the record :yahoo: :cheer: And at least that figure is accurate, unlike some other inflated, exaggerated ones we read about. :lol:

True, but I've seen a couple of not-so-good live performances from them in the past. During the singing contest, they mostly sang individually. It's quite something different to harmonise well in a group. I haven't seen the vids that were posted by the thread starter, but I'm happy to give them the benefit of the doubt, as I do believe that they're reasonably talented singers.

I read today about All Saints, that for their new album they're looking to go in the direction of Ska because they really like No Doubt/Gwen Stefani. Yes, I think people look at the music scene, to find out what's popular and are too easily influenced by it. Makes everything too samey. Thank goodness not all artists are like that, though, a lot of them have their very own, unique style, thankfully.

Y is for You and I :heart: - still one of my favourite Will songs, and possible my favourite ballad of his. :) Edit: Oops. :lol: I left out U, V, W and X! How could I? Must eat more alphabet soup. :blush:

Yay, that sounds great! :yahoo: I wonder what the competition is this time. We've had plenty of meet-and-greets in the past, so it could be something entirely different! Looking forward to the tour! :cheer:

Fab! :dance: I'll see if I can get good seats for Hammersmith Apollo.

Aw, bless him! I hope he gets some peace whenever he's in Cornwall. Sounds like the neighbourhood is friendly. Thanks, Josh. I think knocking on his door would be going a bit too far. :o Although I don't believe you would really do that! :P

Haven't got any of those either, as I never watched the whole series! I think I'll have to go to an internet cafe some time soon to have a listen. :D

"I" is for INGENUITY because he always comes up with new versions of songs, like the Reggae version of Ain't No Sunshine.

:lol: How does she do it?

The DVD is also available fairly cheap from amazon (private sellers): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pop-Idol-Tour-2002...8?ie=UTF8&s=dvd

Aw, it's nice to reminisce. :D For those who never bought the DVD of the PI Tour, there's one on offer on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pop-Idol-tour-2002_W...1QQcmdZViewItem The seller has 100% positive feedback. I also bought it as a video first, bought the DVD much later, in 2005 I think (after I got a DVD player in December 2004). This screencap: http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid61/p178394a39a1bc80051cd70973719fb8c/fc2d6cc3.jpg is just before Will goes up behind Darius (who is being made up for the show) and says to him: "I know your game... you've taken my place!" And then he cracks up because Hayley starts giggling. :P Love that clip. And the footage of Will dancing with Jessica is to die for. :wub:

On the opening night, I'm actually seeing Lemar in London, so I definitely won't be online. In any case, I think I'll try to resist reading spoilers, which might be tough as I'm not going till 1 October! :o Looking forward to it, though. :dance: :cheer: :yahoo:

O/S has been nearly as fast as Devoted for me in the last few months (though I don't go on there often). Today, however, it took forever to load, though it's quick to manoeuver through.

Don't like that pic too much. The jumper and the shirt spoil it for me. I've seen Will looking much better. If he's doing the same as the last two years and have photos from the same photoshoot both for his tour programme and calendar, I think I'll be satisfied with the tour programme. :) I'm not much of a "calendar girl" anyway. :lol: Toni xxx

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e223/erasurepop/becksanimation.gif I love that! :D M is for MMMMMMMMMM. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y64/LESWILLRON/f73c250d.jpg Because Will can't talk in that position! :lol:

Time flies indeed. Will's tour will start in three weeks! :o Although I won't see him till Wembley. But soon it will be over, as time will go at double speed during the tour, I'm sure. :huh: That tracklist looks good. And I'm sure Hey Ya will make an excellent closing track on the first CD. :)

Hiya, F/G, have you got a link to the "huge" version of this, as I really love that photo? :) And didn't he wear that outfit for the Happiness video on the dualdisc? (which I LOVE!)
