Mariah should have done a Vandross song, that would have been less... dull.

― Huey (Huey), Saturday, 2 July 2005 19:58 (nineteen years ago)

God I really really really really really really really really hate Mariah.

Here's Youssou N'Dour w/ Dido. I hope I get to hear some Youssou N'Dour by himself dropping some Islamic knowledge.

Did James Brown play in Paris yet?

Dido doing that song eminem sampled.

mariah at least seemed quite warm about the whole thing. she was like the hot aunt to that little kid.

― ppp, Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:01 (nineteen years ago)

Singing with Yossou N'Dour, appearing at multiple live aid shows Dido is a one woman Genesis!

― miccio (miccio), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:02 (nineteen years ago)

Was that Vick'n'Davie Beckham in the crowd during Mariah - I wandered off to get a bag of crisps and a new bottle of wine.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:02 (nineteen years ago)

London -> Cornwall not quite Phil Collins!

― Huey (Huey), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:02 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, it was. posh was singing along, while beckham was poking her in the hip.

― ppp, Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:03 (nineteen years ago)

Unless, is she and Youssou somewhere else too?

― Huey (Huey), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:03 (nineteen years ago)

Lenny Henry has gone up a wee bit in my estimation by impersonating the Proclaimers using a song that isn't one of their hits.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:04 (nineteen years ago)

She's MORE than Collins!

Here comes the Beckham / Williams hot ticket.

What was up with Natalie Portman? I thought it was Sinead O'Connor for a second.

Why is MTV only showing half of one song from everybody? Are they not going to show the entire Pink Floyd set?

― freddie, Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:05 (nineteen years ago)

Beckham looks terrified. He's not good at this sort of thing, is he?

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:06 (nineteen years ago)

OMG Brian Molko with short hair ... he looks like a boy ...

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:06 (nineteen years ago)

beckham looks about 14.

robbie looks happy. he has just sexed ferne from the BBC though, so that makes sense.

― ppp, Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

If he plays 'Angels' you just know thats the moment everyone will talk about. Something for the kids the moms and the grannies.

urgh. we will rock you.

there should be a ban on queen covers. it could be good if he brings five on, though.

― ppp, Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

I've said it once, and I'll say it again, America has no need for Robbie Williams.

― miccio (miccio), Saturday, 2 July 2005 20:08 (nineteen years ago)

Tenner says he asks everyone to get their mobiles out and call their mums for Angels (that's his "thing" live, and yes, I have been to see him, and no, I didn't phone my mum)

We were in the swing of things. We made Poverty HisTory by going to 8 pubs in one day watch Live 8 and making sardonic comments. We Made Poverty His Tory possible by shaking the hands of a scary man wot remembered the Stone Roses (Stone Temple Pilots + Guns'n'Roses do youse see).

WE MADE POVERTY HISTORY: and we got home and there was Dave Matthews on the televisionsions. We Wus Robbied.

tried to avoid most of this on telly by watching dvds instead (Spongebob Squarepants is great, even my mum loved it), but in between the films, was that really Jacques Lu Cont I spotted as a backing musician for Madonna?

― jellybean (jellybean), Sunday, 3 July 2005 01:10 (nineteen years ago)

Yes, I think so.

I spent the day with my mother watching the horrible, horrible fucking MTV/Vh1 coverage (more commercials and harping on about G8 and crowd interviews than music). We kept flipping it half of the time to The Lost Boys and Hart's War.

― As The Egg Fries (blueski), Sunday, 3 July 2005 10:10 (nineteen years ago)

Only heard a little bit of this on thee radio:

Madonna - somewhat dreary, plus tiresome gratuitous use of "fuck", haha silly mare.

Snow Patrol - unbeliveably dreary & plodding, like a shoegazer band w/thee reverb turned off.

The Killers - fucking shit. When people say guitar music is dead, it's b/c of lumpen unimaginative unadventurous CACK like this. Fuck 'em up thee ass.

Joss Stone (I think) - reasonably sprightly singing, I guess, but somewhat MOR & too much in thrall to singers past.

Robbie Williams = K-URGH.

The Who - good!

Pink Floyd - surprisingly good! I'd probably actually shell out & go & see them if the toured.

I suspect the old bands sounded better (which I thought they did on that limited sampling) for the usual rox0r1zt reasons - the time they came from = good "playing" and the whole do what you want mentality = encouraged more then perhaps.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Sunday, 3 July 2005 10:13 (nineteen years ago)

I enjoyed Linkin' Park and Jay Z the most.

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 3 July 2005 14:50 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, and I also liked some of the stuff from the Eden project, the rap dudes from Sengal were cool. Motley Crue don't have any skin left that is not tattoed, Mick Mars looked particularly terrifying. Velvet Revolver just make you wish that it was the real g'n'r, not just an inferior Slash's Snakepit.

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 3 July 2005 14:56 (nineteen years ago)

I would be curious to hear this Floyd set, I admit. But mostly I want the Cure set. Beyond that, um er.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 3 July 2005 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

The Roxy Music?

― RS LaRue (RSLaRue), Sunday, 3 July 2005 15:04 (nineteen years ago)

Hm, mebbe.

i only saw "love is the drug" and it wz triffic

― mark s (mark s), Sunday, 3 July 2005 15:14 (nineteen years ago)

shameless gossip alert — apparently, Bob had made a deal with Midge Ure to go onstage and perform "I Don't Like Mondays" together to make up for the Live Aid switch that saw the Boomtown Rats perform in front of Charles and Diana instead of Ultravox. Midge was having a drink with Elton John and Paul McCartney when Geldof started, and swore up a storm…

― carson dial (carson dial), Sunday, 3 July 2005 15:17 (nineteen years ago)

..which explains why, immediately after Bob finished, Midge complained to Fearne Cotton quite sincerely that he thought Bob was "rubbish".

― Huey (Huey), Sunday, 3 July 2005 16:12 (nineteen years ago)

i kept having arguments last night over celine dion's performance - they'd start with me defending the funny vegas entertainment aspect but somehow they kept ending with me declaring her the greatest performer of this or any other age, and severing all friendly ties with whoever i happened to be talking to!! LAY OFF THE DRINKS KIDS

― jones (actual), Sunday, 3 July 2005 16:14 (nineteen years ago)

The BBC was today forced to apologise after foul-mouthed performances by Madonna and other Live 8 stars resulted in over 350 complaints about swearing.
It was just 7.20pm - an hour and forty minutes before the 9pm watershed - when 46-year-old Madonna yelled 'Are you f***ing ready London?"
She broke the taboo about swearing in front of the 205,000-strong crowd and billions watching the live TV broadcast.
At the end of their set, Johnny Borell, lead singer of Razorlight, screamed 'I say sign the f***ing petition.'
And American rapper Snoop Dogg, 33, chanted 'Mother f***er' repeatedly during one song.
A BBC spokesman said: "We do apologise if anyone was offended. All the artists were told before they went on stage that it was live and to be mindful of their language.
"Obviously the excitement and occasion got to people but how can you tell Madonna off?
"We received just over 350 complaints about swearing. Considering the billions of people watching, that is not much.
"To put it in context if EastEnders starts five minutes late we get over 500 complaints.

"Obviously people have the right to complain if they are offended but this is a live event and there is not much we can do."

I think Velvet Revolver should have more. I'd enjoy seeing clips from that performance again.

― miccio (miccio), Sunday, 3 July 2005 20:32 (nineteen years ago)

though I'm still very disappointed they didn't bring Ian Astbury up for a "Fire Woman" duet.

Matt Sorum was in the Cult, you know

― miccio (miccio), Sunday, 3 July 2005 20:33 (nineteen years ago)

my friend had a funny formative run-in with the cult when we were young - short version: my friend spots billy duffy in the 7-11 wearing sweatpants & browsing thru comics and basically chases him out of the store for being lame

csi-dmc had someone from the cars in it but pffft like anyone cares

― jones (actual), Sunday, 3 July 2005 20:46 (nineteen years ago)

Highlights for me -- Roxy Music (fucking ruled), Snoop Dogg, The Cure (they did five songs, actally -- they paused for ten to fifteen minutes and then returned and did "Just Like Heaven" and "Boys Don't Cry"), Kaiser Chiefs (were entertaining and solid -- not innovative of course but who cares), Stevie Wonder (sans Maroon 5 and Rob Thomas), Green Day (if only for how they became Live 8's version of U2), Placebo.

Shocks: Simon le Bon looking like Elvis (I half-expected D2 to cover "Suspicious Minds"), seeing the German announcer guy say "Velvet Revolver -- big balls rock 'n' roll!", Chris Cornell touching and decimating some RATM song (which is funny because I always thought RATM would improve immeasurably with a different vocalist, but since Audioslave picked up Chris Cornell it's been a royally disheartening ride as I can't stand hearing CC for three seconds anyway), and the horror of Robbie Williams covering Queen.

― Ian Riese-Moraine has been xeroxed into a conduit! (Eastern Mantra), Sunday, 3 July 2005 23:34 (nineteen years ago)

I watched the whole UK Live8 on TV, not even turning over for the tennis score very often. I thought it was big, exciting and interesting.

I agree with Guy Beckett that Keane were a surprise hit. They are mediocre in a way and look bad, but during that second song the quality of the singing on a powerfully constructed song surged through unexpectedly. Plus, I think of them as the Ultravox of 2003, and Midge Ure has obviously been key to the campaign, so it feels the apter.

Every time I saw Macca I thought what a wonderful man and great genius he is.

U2's set made me cry.

Coldplay were dire: I think Chris Martin is a fatal weak link, a terrible vocalist and front man, and their material weas awful, not that I much dislike 'BSw Symphony'.

Madonna puts on a show, up to a point, but she seems arrogant, nasty and foolish; whereas Mariah Carey, though her material is so sludgy and inapt, does not - she seems generous and blithe, a trouper.

THE WHO are the great underrated act. They said nothing, were lower on the bill than a less important band, were barely announced or anticipated; the only BBC comment on them was Jo Whiley complaining that they look old. (Can you imagine how she'll look at their age?) But they are England's greatest ever ROCK band and, in tribute to Peter Stringbender, they played only 70S WHO. 'Who Are You?' mystified me slightly, but 'Won't Get Fooled Again?' was musically immense and conceptually rich, a complex thought-provoking gesture in this 20-years-on context. (How tremendous for a great artist of the 1960s to have written a great critique of the 1960s... as the 1960s ended - and still it surges.) The finest vocal moment of the day was Daltrey's yell at the end of that song, announcing the final section: no-one else matched his heroic power.

― the pinefox, Tuesday, 5 July 2005 09:16 (nineteen years ago)

I have just noticed that I agree with JtN about the above, by several furlongs.

Alba on 'young dinos' is a nice point.

It was odd how Robbie W came on to Fearne C - and it was unmentioned after that. It was as though he was making public the sort of thing that usually happens at these events.

I never once heard or read during the day or afterwards that the Cure would play, did played, had played. I don't understand this omission, don't understand how everyone else saw them and I did not.

Yesterday I was imagining Morrissey playing and wondering what he could play, and settled on 'Panic' and 'Ask', I think.

― the pinefox, Tuesday, 5 July 2005 09:22 (nineteen years ago)

Outstanding posts, Pinefox!

the only BBC comment on them was Jo Whiley complaining that they look old. God, Whiley is such an idiot!

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 11:17 (nineteen years ago)

Wow. Somehow I don't totally begrudge the top two. Does that negative Libertines figure mean that people have actually been taking that CD back to the shop since L8?

― NickB (NickB), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 11:39 (nineteen years ago)

Unfortunately not.

It's increases sales for the first half of this week against the whole of last week, so although the Libertines seem to be down, it's only half a week - assuming mean sales they're technically about 15% up.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 11:50 (nineteen years ago)

As I said on the other thread, Snoop getting the crowd to chant "Peace!" while wearing a pendant in the shape of revolver was quite amusing

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 11:59 (nineteen years ago)

it was 'Peas' actually

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 12:08 (nineteen years ago)

Just watched the Floyd set. It's a shame that Waters's voice has gotten so thin. His bass playing was just lovely, even on slow old "Breathe."

Interesting that Gilmour was regarded as the wussier singer, the one who did the high pretty bits, while Waters was there for the guts and the venom. If anything, Gilmour's singing has gotten better, more full, since he had to take over and try to be the frontman he never really was. While, sadly, Roger can't quite bring many of the notes and ended up sort of talking along with the music.

So I was glad they reunited, but at the same time, it's kind of a little vindication for Gilmour fans vs. post-Waters Floyd hataz.

― The Mad Puffin (The Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 12:09 (nineteen years ago)

I wonder if the cameramen were under instructions from Gilmour and Waters not to show Rick Wright. Didn't Rick Wright do a lot of the "high pretty bits"?

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 12:20 (nineteen years ago)

I would say that Wright, physically, was probably the best preserved of the four, so maybe that's why they were a bit resentful.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 12:26 (nineteen years ago)

Agree that he didn't get a lot of screen time. Wright did not sing as far as I could tell. He didn't have a mike in front of him anyways (on the synth side). On "Comfortably Numb," they had a female backup singer; I couldn't see who was singing backup on "Breathe."

I seem to recall that "Us and Them" and "Time" are the most recognizable PF songs with a Wright vocal part.

― The Mad Puffin (The Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 12:49 (nineteen years ago)

I always thought he sang a lot more than that, his voice is quite like Gilmour's but higher, he did do a lot of harmony singing - but not at Live8!

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 July 2005 12:54 (nineteen years ago)

Thanks, Pashmina.

*I keep on reading "PF" and thinking people are referring to The Pinefox.
Why is mark s so hard on ver Who?*

Outstanding posts, JtN - and yes, where was Bowie?

I still want to know the truth about Williams and Cotton. Perhaps it will be on the cover of a magazine I will see in the supermarket.

― the pinefox, Tuesday, 5 July 2005 13:22 (nineteen years ago)

five months pass...

It was. I read up on it as much as I could. They live on different continents.

But meanwhile - today on TV, Live8 highlights, caught at random. The same old feelings as the doves fly for 'Beautiful Day' and Bono rambles through the end: 'Paul McCartney - what a gift to the world'. How moving!
