That's about as far as it goes, though. ...My finger is less on the pulse of pop culture than yours? I'm not sure whether to be pleased by that or not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 My other half will agree to this being on the TV. I predict that 10 minutes in, they’ll remember they don’t really do live music and wander off up the garden. Approximately 10 minutes after that, they’ll be back in the house, asking for help with some two person task they’ve found. To which I will wholeheartedly agree, with the words ‘yep, absolutely, I’ll be right out to lend a hand at 7:00’ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted June 28 VT Supporter Share Posted June 28 I’m indifferent to quite a lot of their stuff, but there’s something strangely pleasing about seeing Siobhán Donaghy being able to sing the Sugababes hits she missed out on first time round with the other two original members. It feels nicely book ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two prior to that I will argue in their favour. Some real high points can be found. I wouldn’t be massively bothered about seeing them at a festival though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw them in Kingston earlier this year at a small gig with a few hundred people , the lead guitarist crowd surfed over my head for one song Joe Talbot surfed over the crowd and into a Photo Booth where he was singing as he was having photos taken fans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young female pop star wearing revealing outfit(s). Whatever next. If it was that simple a formula then every attractive female contestant off of Pop Idol/X Factor would have been a success. But they’re not, are they. Something like “New Rules” is fine for what it is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What she does isn't really my cup of tea (her target audience isn't going to be middle aged blokes though is it) but I can appreciate it and see she is very good at it. My daughters, 17 and 25, think she is really good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they’re not, are they. Something like “New Rules” is fine for what it is. i saw her perform at a festival in Madrid in 2018 , the audience was predominantly blokes as she performed in not much more than a bikini .. without question it’s why everyone was there , had she looked like Adele she’d have been playing to an almost empty stage: Reading an article on her just now , she does appear to be a very astute business woman and has co written a lot more music than I’ve given her credit for , so i guess i owe her an apology and she does have some talent … but not enough to sing live at Glastonbury if you believe the internet tonight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
