Oh, so "an unbearably poignant performance" is a posh way of saying "he sang flat" then, is it?

If that wasn't flat I'm Johnny Cash. Still enjoyed it though.

Sorry, but I thought he was terrible, and going by the reaction of the young audience, they didnt even know who he was.

Cant understand why these people dont just retire, they were good in their day, but not now.

Maybe he's ill. If he is, I'm sorry.

His performance is just starting on the red button. At least it's better than Radiohead!

He was flat all the way through the Highwaymen times too. There as a songwriter rather than a vocalist I thought.

Those unconvinced about Country and Western should catch a Highwaymen concert on You Tube. Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson wonderful.

Scooping have you heard Willie Nelson sing with his son Lukas or his daughter?

//reaction of the young audience, they didnt even know who he was.//

But then, do they know much about anything? most of them voted for Corbyn!

Many of the audience do know who he is and don't necessarily have high expectations from an 81 year old singer. It isn't about quality any more (they've got the LPs) is about "aura".

Probably because they read the programme Khandro :-)
