Have they had any British artists up there?

Yes, Take That, Robbie Williams, Little Mix, don't know if others were British. Also, a choir from a Manchester high school which was really great.

 

[Slaythe]

HAHAHAHAHAHAH justin bieber pls

he fucked up his speech so hard

 

[MCN]

I'm gonna go ahead and stop assuming all pop artists just mime instead of playing live.

Everyone is playing live tonight.

Ah, cool.

They're going all out.

Katy Perry still can't sing for shit

Was that Katy Perry? My wife has it on, and glancing up from the computer (I've got headphones on) my first comment was fuck Annie Lennox is looking good for her age. I'm not joking.

 

[Acidote]

Ah, cool.

They're going all out.

Coldplay too a few songs from now.

Unfortunately some TV productions pretty much require playback during "live" performances in order to avoid fuck-ups. Some artist refuse to participate when that's the case, others do not. Then you have stuff like this where everything you hear is live except perhaps some backing vocals.

 

[Wallonsi]

it's a nice idea but it's a little weird to me that a song like 'side to side' is being performed there.

that song is about getting fucked so hard you can't walk straight.

I think Ariana said that she changed most of her songs because of that girl who asked if she could sing her biggest hits.

 

[MCN]

Everyone is playing live tonight.

Which is why I'm going to stop assuming that they're incapable of doing that. I've been rather unfair in my judgement of pop artists over the years. The dangers of being a musical snob, I guess.

I only just learnt that's the meaning of it's song. Knowing that makes it even more incredible, singing that is a brilliant fun show of defiance.

I would fucking love it if Annie Lennox showed up.

 

[infi]

I've never heard Bieber sing before, he's pretty good.

 

[Beefy]

Policeman dancing with lil children was amazing TV.

 

[moggio]

"I'm not going to let go of God..."

*silence*

 

[kmag]

I would fucking love it if Annie Lennox showed up.

Still can't get over the fact it was Katy Perry. Why does she look like something out of Blake's 7? Why?

 

[Martinski43]

Sing live? Or youve never heard a Bieber song before on radio or such?

Police man ring dancing with some kids

Bieber speech about god.. pls.

 

[MCN]

Just watched a poor guy get his pint spilled. Heartbreaking.

 

[Jeff Albertson]

That policeman is a legend

Also Bieber was awesome

 

[number11]

This has been a pretty decent event. Much better than other similar multi act pop concerts I've seen

Never heard him sing at all. I'm not that up on modern music lol

 

[Pachimari]

I love Ariana Grande! This is so beautiful, such a great event!

 

[RedBullEnergy]

Wow Bieber looks so young. I always thought he was in his mid to late twenties but you can really see now he's still super young.

That was great.

 

[The Cowboy]

You know, just watching the steam from the beginning - i forgot just how much i like Take That, i haven't listed to them in ages.

And god dam, Miley really does have a hell of a voice on her.

 

[Martinski43]

Never heard him sing at all. I'm not that up on modern music lol

Thats a feat to never heard a song on radio or in a store.

 

[Ruruja]

 

[SteveO409]

How does she walk in this! The reason she walks from side to side!

 

[jetjevons]

That is fantastic.

 

[redmetal86]

SEAN PAUL?!

 

[trudderham]

Katy really likes that ice cream.

[British Monsoon]

This isn't my style of music at all, but goddamn Ariana's a hell of a singer - like, there's a lot of talented people up there, but while they all seem talented in specific ways, she kinda seems talented in all the ways. If that makes sense.

 

[Martinski43]

Was bummed out that i didnt get to hear U2 before just their speech.

Really wanted to hear One Tree Hill.

 

[Einchy]

PLAY 👏 DON'T 👏 PANIC 👏

 

[Martinski43]

Katy really likes that ice cream.

Wonder if she gave compliments to the ice cream vendor.

 

[MCN]

Ah shit, who started cutting onions?

 

[Acidote]

Coldplay singing one of my favorite songs.

This is ok.

 

[Anth1888]

Noel obviously said no....

 

[number11]

Is Coldplay meant to be the surprise?

 

[Beefy]

This is amazingly dope

 

[jelly]

Can't not love Chris Martin.

 

[Martinski43]

Coldplay was known long before.

 

[PizzaFace]

Can't not love Chris Martin.

Oh you can...pretty easily

 

[Wes]

This is great, especially Coldplay covering Oasis with Manchester doing chorus vocals.

A helpful tonic after recent events.

 

[disappeared]

This crowd is so good
