I think it was 2012? I was at the Glasgow Symphonica concert. The crowd did not look like the French! In fact it wasn't a great night, I was thrilled to be there but it felt a bit cold. Although big venues are always hard to get right.

Yes I'm so glad I went. However we were sitting beside the drunkest people singing loudly whereas I was there to pay homage. Then the woman beside DH (who had been dragged along) said she should have worn her Tena pants so she wouldn't need the loo Smile he was quite taken aback.

Yes it's good but he has so much of his own material that I'd prefer to hear.

I love his more upbeat, later stuff…the Faith era.

What a legend.

There's some truly deadbeat reporting over on the Daily Mail ducks & hangs head in shame

I'm trying not to look at it. Have already fallen out with DH this morning when he told me what the Internet was saying. It just diminishes the loss.

Yes. Can't believe I missed cowboys and angels. It is my very favourite. He had such a beautiful voice that we didn't always appreciate I think
