Chris Martin is making George Michael look even more talented than he was!!!

DanniiMinogue · 22/02/2017 20:46

I am gob smacked at how awful that was. Bloody hell Chris

Vagndidit · 22/02/2017 20:46

I don't even think poor George has been buried yet, otherwise graves would be rolling with that tribute. Bleh.,

nancy75 · 22/02/2017 20:46

Just put this on, just a couple of questions,

  1. Has Andrew Ridgley never heard of sun cream?
  2. Chris Martin? Who thought that was a good idea? Sing a long a George was not a good thing
INeedAWittyNameChange · 22/02/2017 20:46

I like Coldplay but Chris Martin is successfully showing what an amazing voice George Michael had

BillDoor · 22/02/2017 20:47

Wow. That was shite.

Crispbutty · 22/02/2017 20:48

God that was horrific. Playing the lovely voice of George midway just highlighted even more how badly Chris Martin was singing.

I like Coldplay but that was totally the wrong song for him to attempt.

Should have just played George.

DevelopingDetritus · 22/02/2017 20:48

They should have got Aretha, too sad :(

Destinysdaughter · 22/02/2017 20:49

Wow I didn't realise Chris Martin couldn't sing until I heard his tribute to George!!

Nearly as bad as Madonna singing Purple Rain last year...

Crispbutty · 22/02/2017 20:50

And I'm shocked at how gaunt and old Andrew ridgely looked. He was my pin up back in my teens. I was born in 69 so this was totally my era.

It wasnt terrible, but someone else might have been better.
George always made singing sound easy.
He was such a talent.

Sean Escoffrey would have done it justice. George was a soul singer!

BigSandyBalls2015 · 22/02/2017 20:50

I loved it! Don't get the Chris Martin bashing.

Just5minspeace · 22/02/2017 20:51

Do you consider it appropriate to make that comment to someone who is mixed race?

jhjhj · 22/02/2017 20:51

Hang on, is Andrew Ridgely white then? Just from the reactions.

Crispbutty · 22/02/2017 20:52

What has holly done with her make up? She looks very strange.

Raahh · 22/02/2017 20:52

Didn't think Emma was that old. Bucks Fizz won in 1981 didn't they?

jhjhj · 22/02/2017 20:53

Emma is pretty old. A lot older than she looks.

3catsandcounting · 22/02/2017 20:53

Oh, well that's just put the tin lid on it!

ChristopherWren · 22/02/2017 20:53

Buck's Fizz? I'm in my 50s and they won Eurovision with Making Your Mind Up when I was a teenager!

Rafflesway · 22/02/2017 20:54

Just wanted to hear George singing Different Corner, Prince singing Purple Rain and David Bowie singing Life on Mars.

To say what losses is such a massive understatement! Sad

CoolCarrie · 22/02/2017 20:54

Well that was a missed opportunity, soo many other real singers to choose and they asked Chris Martin? The Bowie tribute last year was very good, but that was a huge mistake. Poor George hasn't even been buried yet.

Whisky2014 · 22/02/2017 20:54

Holly self involved bitch. Fearne said "mums night out" meaning they are both out and holly brings it round to herself "yes i am"
fearne: emmmmmm......
