Just watching Blossoms and Rick Astley on iPlayer (couldn't find it yesterday). Wow what a great performance and slightly surreal but nonetheless brilliant!

Certainly surreal but superb and highlighted how many great tracks the Smiths made .

In no particular order.....

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Pinball Wizard
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Candle in the wind (the original)
Song for Guy
Sacrifice
Rocket Man
Tiny Dancer
Benny and the Jets
Crocodile Rock
Daniel
Don't let the sun go down on me
Sad Songs
Circle of Life
I want love

So yeah, mostly his earlier stuff. Not sure I'd call them folky, mind. The guy (along with Bernie Taupin) penned some fantastic songs.

I was named after one of those songs.

Look after yourself !
It’s Rock ‘n’ mutha fuckin roll
We wouldn’t have had the pleasure of ozzy and Lemmy as we know and love them if they’d ‘ looked after themselves’

Mad to think that Randy Rhodes told ozzy to stop ruining himself because of the drink and drugs. Then goes and gets killed by a pilot high on drugs.

Thought it was fantastic.
Not a fan of blossoms but I thought musically, they got it spot on.
They could take that on the road and people would pay to watch.

I saw Blondie about 8 summers ago and thought they were very good but you could tell they were in decline then. This is pretty shit.

I saw Debbie Harry in Liverpool (forgive me) in 1993 and don't recall it being much cop back then. Time seems to make us fonder of all these old codgers that Glasto thrives on.

OK Debbie Harry is struggling with her voice which isn't a surprise given her age. But very few can't beat their back catalogue. Brilliant tunes.
