Shall we guess who is singing what? Do we care?

Oh, and Jermain Jackson (the one who won last year, remember? No? ) will be performing. And Olly Murs. Who has nothing to do with the Voice, as far as we know.

I have and monketnuts. As well as a rather nifty bowl, that the dcs gor me for Mother's day, whick enables me to keep the nuts and shells separate.

Rock and Roll

Fuksakes, I will need my wine. Coldplay AND Phil Collins? Gah.
I think it's just us, Raah. Why doesn't MN have a tagging function? That would be good YooHOOOOOO, Calam, Boffles et al. Come along.

Yes perhaps we should fill the hours of waiting by guessing who will be singing what, we could have a prize of ear defenders for the person who gets the most right

I am looking forward to what wardrobe disasters are foisted upon us this week, more socks and high heels do you think?

Raahh, hows the puppy doing? Bit of an 80s theme with Phil, Cyndi and EMF , i like that song. I hope Bill has woken up and they have put the socks n heels combo in the bin..

I like the socks and heels. Very Rocky Horror. Or Wizard of Oz. Both.

I suppose they are the height of fashion, but as i cant wear heels at all i think ill pass and wear socks and boots ..

Maybe they will combine them all. Pleather socks, with heels. And a peplum ankle frill.

Colottes , who brought them back..? They were bad enough years ago. Maybe the high waisted blue trousers from last week will make an appearence again..

I have just spent the last 4 hours ripping apary the garden shed and sending dh on half a dozen tip trips.

I need alcohol. NOW.

80s RaahhPuppy is amazing- has settled really well, is only a little bit nippy, and obviously loves me best of all

He is currently asleep with one of ds's grotty old trainers.

I really like 'Hold Back the River' by James Bay, one of the current crop who sound 40 and are about 12. He sounds a bit like Brian Ferry. I suspect whoever covers it thogh will sound more like Brian Cant.

Trouble with guessing who is singing what, is that i have forgotten who has which act.

I want Vikesh to win. I hope he isn't singing Coldplay

And 'Glow' by Ella and Princess of China both sound very, very similar. There is a particular bit of both that is almost identical.

Hi, glad pup is well.
Brian Cant, i remember Playaway and Playschool. I always thought he would have had a bad time at school with a surname like that, bless him. Is he still alive? James bay has a nice voice, trouble is at my age they all look soo young these days. I could be their mum, and thats depressing!
I wonder whos singing what, not that i can put faces to names on this show, it sort of blends ..

Oh hooray, 2 Coldplay songs zzzzzzzz.
DH is currently having an asthma attack watching the rugby .

Coco, is the rugby likely to bore on? Or will it finish on time?

Well done Ireland, sad for England..
I am a Coldplay fan, but sung by them , covers are not good.
Did anyone hear Graham norton on radio two this morn? He played Strisand ( spelt wrong) singing life on mars , the bowie classic. It was bizarre.

Its over now. Probably wont be much talk afterwards because England didn't win

..its going on. And on. Glad its over, although formula one,is back now and thats even worse.

Urgh. fgs

why's the news on? Am I on the wrong channel?? :O

No. Ireland won the rubgy. Is going ona bit

Brian Cant is still alive , he's 81, has Parkinsons and is married to Fern Brittons sister.

Coco, thats a shame, my poor mum had that disease. Its awful.
He seemed so nice on the tele!
An actor called jeremy something was on Playaway.. Forget his last name? Made films.

Coco- really? That's very sad. Horrible illness.

But- fuck me! 81????

And yes, that Jeremy Irons bloke did ok for himself, really

I had a crush (aged 5) on Jonathan Cohen the pianist

Jeremy Irons?
I did Goggle Brian Cant btw, mI'm not a superfan . I did love him though. Playschool was great.

Oohh yes Jonathan was lovely.

Is your DD Ok coco?

I've missed the last week or two, but I'm properly stocked with wine and snacks for a voice quarter final.
