Just highlights the problem with today's music industry.......

Biggest modern stars have the worst voices......

Will.i.am has more only than the royal box put together but can't string two notes together, Cheryl is quite obviously struggling without some form of auto tune device.

Jessie was good however

I have purposely being avoiding everything to do with the Jubilee and so I'm not watching TV concerts etc but Jessie's voice is usually better than one might expect. Not the very best there is but nevertheless quite good.

Cheryl is nicer eye-candy though.

Is all this Jubilee stuff continuing tomorrow as well? - I do hope not!

Shamefully or not I haven't had any interest in it all upto now.

But after seeing the Gaurds band playing, strangely had a bit of a lump in the throat  :ashamed:.  Bet they were buzzing playing infront of that crowd  :congrats:

I get a medal too as I've been in long enough this jubilee  :jumpmove:

She's 64!!!

Madness!

I can't hear anything due to the echo other than the music, and even that is not that clear.

Shambolic waste of £2m if you ask me.

I'm not anti-Royalist as such but that family is merely one which is ultra rich, property owning, and powerful. The country's religion is all intertwined with it too - It's all about power over the people. Fine if people want to swear allegiance to it or celebrate its longevity but it's simply not in my heart.  :smiley:

Concert started of terribly with some real crap but got going in style with Kylie, Madness and Stevie.  Thought that Will I Am chap was a prat but that performance last night took the biscuit. Had my youngest round and friends and we all loved it.

ETTO with their opinions regarding the Monarchy.  We are fans in our family and have enjoyed all four days. Proud to be British myself. No one does Pomp and Ceremony like us!!

My dad came round yesterday (very,very proud serviceman, ex RAF pilot) wearing his new t shirt:-  :signLOL:

....I agree, but that's a different thing from being patriotic and celebrating jubilees to such an OTT extent. Each to their own though - I have managed to easily avoid the jubilee thing, so I'm happy  :happy2:

....Good point. Interbreeding doesn't usually result in braininess! But Harry and Edward seem intelligent enough.

I'm sure they are intelligent, would be difficult to not be with that education, just I would much rather a vote for a president then a monarchy.

It's events like the Jubilee, that build morale and public confidence, and coupled with the Olmpics, in my view, will finally pull this country out of recession.

I am all for public celebrations like this

Just my tuppence.

It's easy to be cynical and dismiss the events of the past few days, but I for one have surprised myself and really enjoyed it!  :drinking:

I've even felt very patriotic, not a trait I usually possess.....  :happy2:

Seeing lots of coverage of Kate has helped too!  :love:

I've met quite a few of the royal movers and shakers....

Not Liz I might add.

My lasting impression was one of bloody hard working dedicated people who use their fame not for personal advancement but for good causes and charitable do gooding.

Blair and his vast fortune amassed after his term in office makes me sick....quite the opposite of the CND waving leftys of the 70's & 80's they couldnt beat them so they joined them

I think anybody with political aspirations should be instantly banned from office

These people are very very down to earth and Bloody good fun.

Princess Royal took the pi$$ out of my landings once   :fighting:

Had to forgive her as she raised about 60k for a charity she was patron off over a lunchtime - incredible work ethic too, her policeman told me she did nearly 350 jobs that year - thats one a day on average!
