Cher , back to her old tricks, and a song hardly old enough to be considered an anthem.

And Kim Wilde is British!

Evening all.

Merlin was superb tonight.

Precis please.

bonfiresnomore · 06/11/2010 20:24

Yes kittya - audience VERY annoying tonight.

Wish they'd shut up.

forehead · 06/11/2010 20:24

Shite , shite and more shite.
The sad fact is that all these 'singers' will have to go back to their crap day jobs soon, while Simon counts his millions.

BitOfFun · 06/11/2010 20:24

Or perhaps "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing"?

PestoEatsGunpowderPlotters · 06/11/2010 20:24

I wanna go on that roller coaster... Grin

bigchris · 06/11/2010 20:25

Was it? Omfg never knew it was a cover when sinead did it!

FanjolinaJolie · 06/11/2010 20:25

Aiden will sell. Teen girls must love him as he has a bit of a vampire R Patinson vibe going.

YaddahYaddahYaddah · 06/11/2010 20:25

bigchris - not irish because it's listed as by Prince (wasn't even aware prince covered it!)

MmeLindt · 06/11/2010 20:25

With wine. And food. Cause nothing to eat at party.

Oh it was the other way around!

REALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kittya · 06/11/2010 20:27

Just in case Sinead O'Conner takes all the credit for it. It was originally a Prince song,its on one of his albums somewhere. He does an even more amazing version. I love Prince!!

I dont know what they hell is going on with the audience, are they on speed?

CHOOGIRL · 06/11/2010 20:27

Prince wrote the song. Sinead covered it.

Raahh · 06/11/2010 20:27

MrsDrO- we are doing really well- dd2 slept through a very loud firework display- mind you she has very noisy siblings!!!

Kerry
10 weeks. We told her to go to doc. She went. Wouldn't have known without you having posted about it.

PestoEatsGunpowderPlotters · 06/11/2010 20:28

Kittya, maybe SC has had a word with the audience aswell....?

aDarkStarWithStrangeWays · 06/11/2010 20:28

pmsl bearcrumble, so true!

EightiesChick · 06/11/2010 20:29

halftermhero Must take issue with you describing Aiden as 'quirky'. Didn't you know that term has now been copyrighted for use exclusively about Katie?

ShowOfHandsInEpistolaryForm · 06/11/2010 20:29

I can't remember a single thing about Paije.

Does he work at Tesco?

HalfTermHero · 06/11/2010 20:29

rofl at the attractive lesbien comment! Actually he does. Maybe that is why I like him, as he looks much more trustworthy than the usual boyband carry on.

PestoEatsGunpowderPlotters · 06/11/2010 20:29

I love Paije
