Poll: Platinum Jubilee

[CaptainRAVE]

That’s the sound of people refunding their Diana Ross concert tickets for this summer

Just rewatched the part where some random dude has to direct her onto the stage.

Respect to any who weren’t miming, there weren’t many.

Especially a 21 year old kid who's relatively new to the scene. Not miming on an open stage like that? Absolute balls.

Did it just...end? Thats it? I am watching on iPlayer and its now showing an advert for a new show.

Yes they figured enough was enough. Painful last act.

 

[SideWinder]

Ah wait BBC News is carrying on a bit.

 

[Feek]

Well I enjoyed that. Once again, we showed the world that we know how to put on a show.

Makes me want to watch the Olympics 2012 opening ceremony again.

 

[200sols]

It was pretty decent but the final act ruined it. Absolutely awful way to finish.

Yep that was absolutely epic. I’ll never forget that night.

Calibans dream, the song they played as the torch was being run in, was one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard. I still listen to it to this day.

 

[Lokai]

Enjoyed that, should have finished with nessun dorma though, brilliant performance.

 

[The_One]

Queen should have come back out and done god save the queen tbh

 

[beachBOYken]

I enjoyed it, once in a lifetime event, yeah not all music was great but still, shame Elton John wasn’t here, he would have been an epic final act.

do you think we will have an extended weekend national holiday when the time comes for charles and the coronation

These concerts show that some singers need to retire from performing - Rod and Diana.

You can’t tell from someone in their 50s and 60s that in 20 years time, their voices aren’t going to be strong.

I remember watching the Golden Jubilee one and Ray Davies (Kinks) sounded dreadful.

On the other hand, I saw The Zombies as part of a 60s bands show in 2019 and Colin Blunstone’s voice still sounds heavenly

I reckon so!

The likes of Elle Eyre, Mimi Webb and Sam Ryder smashed the legends out of the park.

Yep completely agree. Not my cup of tea and im sure they are legends of an era but time to move on.

The funeral and coronation are bank holidays unless its the weekend.

It ended weirdly. Should had (Sir - he really needs a knighthood) Brian May doing God Save The Queen

She's 96. She was probably in bed by 7!

A Knighthood? Ooh no!

Why’s Oak more precious than gold, diamond or platinum???
