Classic Hits in the Piano Room

[IntelligentInputDarling]

Anyone else watching/listening on BBC 2?
Loving all the songs but having just heard
Pulp's Something Changed, which reminded me of an article I read last year

So has any song made a profound difference to your life? Would love to hear about it!

We are! Although my husband and I have wildly differing tastes in music!!

I am really enjoying it. Absolute bangers. Glad I’m not watching the Brits.

Oh I'm glad I have company!
Are either of you feeling emotional listening to these, I feel so old - these are songs from my yoof dammit!!

Loving it 😍

Love it, richard ashcroft on now, all the classics

Im impressed I know all the songs so far and most of the words

@IntelligentInputDarling Definitely. Gary Barlow took me right back to sleepovers as a teenager with my girlfriends. I wasn't a fan at the time, but they all were and I remember just feeling happy to be with them 💕

Can't believe two of my kids are now older than I was when "Back for Good" first came out (15 and 18).
Still, my 5 yo keeps me insane/young! 😄
Also, find it weird sitting next to my husband and we are singing these songs together, but that when we both heard them first separately it would be many years before we were to meet (second marriage for both of us, we married later on in life).

Me too @MissMoneyFairy
I am singing along and word perfect
👌 🤭

Nice to see Mika

@MissMoneyFairy Me too - stuff you, menopause!!! 😆

This is so much better than the Brits!

Loving it! Singing along nostalgically.

@abathofmilkwithladydi I fear we may be showing our ages?!!! I'm 45, my husband is 50 😀

I could have gone to see a film instead

What an amazing song, underrated.

Sam Smith sang some bangers back in the day.

Oh I LOVE this.

@BestBefore2000 cough <53> cough

@DallasMajor absolutely.

It's just so brilliant.
That article made me say awwww

The Suga Babes were ace Belinda Carlisle not so much

I'm 70, always loved easy listening music

Thanks for the heads up. Have just switched over from the Brits.

Have we missed anything??

This Stormzy arrangement is ace

Anyone know who is singing now? Black guy, dressed in black?

I don’t know if they announced him as I’m in and out of the sitting room. He had three backing singers, a man and two women, also all in black.
