The entire entertainment industry needs way more people like Lewis whose success is based on talent and not superficiality, insincerity, vacuousness and money.
You’ve got to respect Capaldi. Imagine going up there in front of 200k people, knowing what’s likely to happen, being broadcast around the world. A nightmare situation I feel for the lad but fair play for showing up and doing his best.
When I saw a clip of Lewis singing then stopped I wanted to jump through the TV and stand by him and sing but in that second the wonderful crowd did it for me ❤ to you all in that crowd.
As Australian who bought tickets to his upcoming cancelled concert in Australia…. Lewis we love you, take care look after yourself. Nothing is more important than your health. Take your time and get well soon. Xoxo
It was a great moment in humanity and music history to see people supporting and lifting the great Lewis Capaldi May God bless him in a healing journey
Elton John's discography consists of 31 studio albums, 5 live albums, 10 soundtrack albums, 16 compilation albums, 4 extended plays, 3 tribute albums, 4 collaboration albums, and 2 holiday albums. He deserves respect. I bet this news caster can't even remember what he said yesterday let alone sing a song 20 years old. Tell your newscaster to grow up.
I've seen him in concert 5 times. He's incredible and one of the best talents this world has even seen...they can't say anything that will take away from that comment you made. He's Elton John. His presence alone is enough.
Its not necessarily about the memory, of course you know the lyrics that you wrote, but when anxiety hits, and huge lights and stress and pressure of people's expectations, lots of artists get blank space in their head and cannot remember one single word. Lyrics on the stage don't mean they are not prepared well or that they don't give a shit, it is not that simple. And it is not that simple to just quit performing because it's something you love the most and can't live without it- paradox, I know. Lewis explained it well in one interview. People who never experienced it on their skin can't understand it, but judging without knowing what is happening inside someone's head is the stupidest thing you can do.
Performers who struggle with the lyrics, you’ll normally find they struggle because someone else has written them. They get all the air time, then you’ve got artists like the Manics who write all their own, lyrics, music and give top notch performances who slip under the radar. The modern music industry for ya
Elton was Brilliant,Most singers use earpeices to Guide them,Bono does.Elton's Piano didn't need Autocue did it!! The words were for the woman that never sung this song before.Just Remember Piers,Elton Done 2 hours straight without a Break,you couldn't do 2 hours on GMTV without walking off because you were Upstaged.Maybe the Autocue told you to leave.
Amazing moment , great guy great singer last few years been through hell … his passion for music and fans shown thru good luck to the young man If it’s music or being a normal bloke … absolute gentleman
I think they've come straight from the Daily Mail comment section, and it shows why there is such a divide in the world right now when there are hateful people like them.
@@llpalm08maybe some people don't feel the need to virtue signal on the Internet, if you can't handle others opinions and it actually bothers you c9uld stay away from the Internet and go back to your little safespace, would you rather mute the entire world to suit your pussy boy views? Pathetic beyond imagination, you were supposed to get past being bothered about such things at kindergarten age, scooter.
People who are totally up themselves talking about other people who are totally up themselves at a festival that is totally up itself. Grow up. Actual adults have more important things to worry about.
Obama is just trying to catch some popularity! Anything to do with the Titanic has always been top news even the the weeks before it went down there was a lot of publicity. That migrant situation was true the captain refused assistance! Okay so we moved on to the next story.
Wat een misselijk lachje op de achtergrond van deze presentatrice. Respect voor deze horde loopster. Ze heeft het knap gedaan en ze heeft teamspirit. 👊💪
How absolutely arrogant to assume ‘ no one can identify’ with the 700 migrants but can identify with 5 very rich men. Do you actually realise what you’re saying? Who do you speak for?
Piers seems to be able to articulate the moral compass of the masses at times, but in clips like this I think he comes across as the biggest bell end that’s ever existed.
It's too much to expect that older artists are gonna remember every word from every song on their set list every gig they do... And not just older artists will use teleprompters because of memory issues but sometimes there are other issues at play... Elton used sheet music when he played at Princess Diana's funeral because he said he didn't want to take a chance and forget a note because of being overcome with emotion... he was good friends with her too... ... and Gord Downie of the Tragically Hip used a teleprompter for his final 10 gigs before he passed away from brain cancer because he couldn't remember most of the words to his songs; but he still powered through after his terminal diagnosis and did 10 concerts.💕
Please trip over your own shoes Piers with your criticism ... (Elton) He has just done OVER 300 shows on a farewell tour - all with different set lists, different timezone, different rushes to stage from arriving flights to venues that you as an artist hope have been set up correctly by the team and different set lengths according to the venues licences, therefore different songs following others that were not the same as last night, not to mention in different countries different local famous guests that come on stage and fill in parts of his songs - the man is 76.... he doesnt get to rehearse each show on a 300+ tour. This is just a safety net that everyone who is staring at the stage (in this case over 100,000) gets word perfect performance as it should be .. Looking forward to your wrinkly rants at 76.... id imagine with no autocue yeah ?
😂 can relate to the millionaires in the sub, than refugees that drowned, not working class people in the uk have more in common with refugees than they ever will the 5 people in the sub
Piers...was going to say 'you should know better', but then its you...Elton didn't write the songs...do you actually ever do any research AT ALL? Take a leaf...no actually study for a few years from the Sean Evans hymnbook. You really don't have to be a complete tosser all your life, as, amazingly, there are/were a few times over the past 20 years when you've actually had something worthwhile to say. A few times...
Well, ... "we should talk about it more" ... "what kind of a society are we" ... and yet, even you on this show gave the poor 700 souls only a minute of your time ... 😕
