This is an example of Hayley's exceptional ability to transform huge crowds (like a full O2) into an intimate and personal experience. This rendition of Blue Light was a lovely, unexpected highlight of an amazing show. Kele fully deserved her cute fangirling -for his musical legacy and for writing such a beautiful song, in the first place. Later edit: Jodie, thank you for recording this moment so well - not an easy thing to do after standing up for probably 3 hours at the hot end of the crowd :)
i saw paramore in april, for the first show in london. my sister told me how i introduced her to these bands (the likes of paramore and bloc party) and she likes them and remembers them because of me. anyways, she gave birth yesterday to my nephew and the song that came up on spotify when i opened the photo of him just after him being born was blue light. so poignant. so beautiful. i love how this song has been there for me in many phases of my life but most importantly for the birth of my nephew. 🩵
That was so beautiful, thank you for recording this! Guessing they did this special for the fans in London but even as someone from the US this would have absolutely floored me. Bloc Party was a huge influence in my life since their first album and while I always liked Paramore and jammed to their singles I only recently became a big fan while Hayley was doing her solo stuff. Absolutely cannot wait to see them both live for the first time in a few months.
I’m not even exaggerating when I say I’ve watched this sooooo many times since I seen someone post a vid on Twitter. I can’t get it out of my head ❤️ i just wish I was there live for it! Thanks for the full video!!
