I’m getting snacks and drinks in and watching the whole thing while pretending I’m 12 again. Can’t wait for the Quo to kick it off in half an hour! Anyone else gonna watch?

What a voice!!!

Love Alison.

I was there and had forgotten just who was on. Just remember singing along to most of the tunes, being very hot and sitting on my 6ft4 brothers shoulders at times.

My feet hurt by the time we got to the tube at the end.

Saw her supporting Simple Minds in Bedford last week. Still brilliant.

David Sylvian was my first love.

What an absolute BEAUTY of a man!

I thought he was lovely but now I think what was I thinking? Grin

Alison had such a powerful voice.

ThePoshUns · 12/07/2025 20:18

Alison!

Seeline · 12/07/2025 20:18

Her whole outfit appears to be made out of tablecloths...

But fab voice!

SwedishEdith · 12/07/2025 20:18

Just got goosebumps at Alison's voice

MooDengOfThailand · 12/07/2025 20:18

I was 12.
Watched most of it when it was televised.

Phil Collins acting like Action Man.

Happy to see the love for AM, she always seems under-appreciated to me.

RabbitsRock · 12/07/2025 20:18

Always loved Alison Moyet

MeringueOutang · 12/07/2025 20:19

Ach I missed loads. Bloody kids bedtime dragged on. 🙄

SpottyAardvark · 12/07/2025 20:19

Paul Young must not have had much of an ego. Because he allowed his backing singers so sing him off the stage…

I'll fill in the blanks tomorrow. I went up after Spandau Ballet and only just got back down. There's something really appealing about watching it while it's on.

I remember reading a few years ago that she got rid of all her gold records and stuff Sad

Shetlands · 12/07/2025 20:21

I remember this so well! I was 31 with a 4yr old and 2 yr old. We let them stay up as long as possible so they'd hit the sack quickly and we wouldn't miss any of it! I remember dancing in the sitting room for hours. I wasn't a massive Queen fan at the time - more into Genesis, Dire Straits and The Who but as soon as Queen came on they electrified the place and we were jumping up and down with the telly turned right up! I can't believe 40 years has gone by...
