Toploader??? 😄

I know toploader. 🤦‍♀️

Abrupt end there to The Kings speech.

They should just have showen original speech not Brian cox. He is not carrying this speech well

Who the hell is this singing. Sounds like he’s holding his nose and making words up. Very odd.

Is this bloke miaowing?! Truly bizarre

Oh I don’t like this at all - would be better just the military band and choir , without this singer. He sounds as if he’s in pain

Yep he is whining away and ruining the choir and the bands

It was John Newman. Although he sounded in pain and in need of some medication.

I thought John Newman had retired. I like him but he was rusty and nervous!

So I must be the only one enjoying the VE Day concert?!!

I am too! Mnet never likes these things

Shouldn’t have bothered getting John out of retirement! .. I like the song, but his delivery was very odd.

I really like hearing all the stories. What sacrifices people made

I am enjoying the video clips and old photo montages
Loved the kings speech
Brian cox was good
Military bands and choirs are great
I just don’t like the random ancient pop songs flung in that are not in keeping with the style ( IMO )
Id prefer all older classic war era music to go along with it all .

What a beautiful voice victor has

Yes , stuff like this , older , more classic songs , not pop or rock

Agree

Lovely

Another ‘whiney man’ song. Enjoying the rest of it, other than this one and the one who made odd noises to a beautiful orchestral backing.

I thought he was really good, personally. He did a very decent English accent.
