On his head not in his head obviously!

I was worried that Paul Mcartneys set would be disappointing but it was fantastic and made me feel very emotional. Especially seeing John and George on screen and Golden Slumbers at the end.What an enormous talent.I do like some of the younger act Kasey Musgraves and First Aid kit in particular. Beautiful voices. But anyone criticising Macca should ask themselves how many current artists will be up on stage for 2hours plus with a vast audience singing along to such a back catalogue at 80. And I agree with the previous poster about Megan Thee stallion.Utterly depressing.

Yes indeed Callistemon. He also stands in his head every day. I can foresee a trip to A&E if I did that!

He is a legend. A doc on This Morning gave Paul's exercise and dietary regime today. It involves lots of exercise, yoga, meditation etc. It wasn't speculation. Apparently Paul did a podcast last year about it.

Add in a younger wife who looks as if she follows a very strict fitness routine

Over the years my sisters have threatened to sue me grin for indoctrinating them with The Beatles.
On Saturday night they were sending me messages saying how fantastic he was. One of my sisters told me she was going for a long walk yesterday as she 'wants to look as good as Paul at 80'. Case proven I think.

Paul is an absolute legend, everyone at work is raving about him.
I’m going to watch it all again when I get a chance

The young country singer with the wellie boots was Kacey Musgraves - she was great. Haven't seen Paul Mc yet, but Diana Ross' singing was very out of tune - totally relied on the backing singers! Was away in Bournemouth last week, and we managed to catch 3 shows of stars all around the 78 year old mark (we were very lucky!) George Benson (we barely sat down, he was amazing!), Roger Daltrey also sang well, but not too many familiar Who songs. Then Gladys Knight - wow, she looked and sounded like she was in her 50s - stunning performance! smile Any of those would be great in a future Legends slot!

I'm watching Paul McCartney now. He's amazing. His voice is a wee bit tremulous and thinner but he's not auditioning for BGT. So talented and full of energy. He's a legend.

Yay ! Thank you Pittcity I will indulge myself later today .

Clawdy Mon 27-Jun-22 08:21:00

All over now! Loved Macca even though his voice is going, that performance was wonderful. Diana Ross - no. Just talking her way through, and out of tune, too.

Just caught up with Roisin Murphy on iPlayer. Not sure what to make of it.
Gabriels was just sublime.

I caught someone called Megan thee Stallion (I think). What a depressing earbend of aggressive noise and depraved dancing. Yet the audience seemed to get it. I despair if this is what young people like now. I used to love black music in the days of soul and Tamla, we had such great artists. I don't recognise the hate and aggression they sing about now. Thank god Paul is still singing about love.

Change of lyric on west end girls ‘from Mariupol to Kiev City’.

Just Willie for me ?

It's a sin if anyone else sings it!

One of my favourites. But no-one can sing this like Willie Nelson .........

Or Elvis.

maddyone Sun 26-Jun-22 22:53:36

Good grief, I saw a bit of Diana Ross when I turned the television on. The woman has had her day, she simply can’t sing in tune anymore. It was awful. Why doesn’t she retire gracefully and let the young ones get on with it? It would be okay if she could still sing, but she was flat. Awful performance.

He's there now.

What on earth has Neil Tennant got on his head? ?

Just tuned in on iPlayer.
I think he's receiving messages from outer space.
