Hugh Jass Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Can't see Bon Jovi playing, yet alone headlining. A top three of BJ, The Cure and Macca doesn't sit right at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the public can probably name more of her hits than the cure and macca combined Right. I dont listen to radio but l can name more of her songs than pink+katy combined. If Ed Sheeran is headline worthy, I would think she would be as well. I do think shed do well with a headline spot, but I dont think were going to be seeing her on the farm. Her personal life seems a mess atm, and has she ever done a festival before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macca? Are you sure you're thinking of the right person here? Paul McCartney. As in Paul McCartney from The Beatles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are just talking about his solo stuff which is probably a fair point but all of his beatles back catalogue included would blow that theory out of the water. Plus at GF he will certainly play a heavy Beatles setlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Andy Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 I for one didn't know who Ariana Grande was until Manchester happened, and still can't name a song of hers. I know Katy Perry and Pink. But maybe that just means I'm old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was my point but if he plays he will be playing a Beatles heavy setlist at Glastonbury. He knows what would be expected of him. He may play some Wings (Live and let die) or Quarrymen stuff but mainly it will be Beatles so by that token a large part of the crowd would know the setlist. The original point was that "most" of the public would name more hits from her than Macca or the cure combined- rubbish IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Jass Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) Does Wings stuff count as part of hi solo output? I'm mean they were the band the Beatles could have been. I'd guess most people could name or would at least recognise Live & Let Die, Mull of Kintyre, Band on the Run, The Frog Chorus, Jet, Ebony & Ivory, Wonderful Xmas Time... Scenes when he drops Temporary Secretary though. Love that tune. Edited October 29, 2018 by Hugh Jass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be fairly surprised if this is true in itself given that Sheeran has had the second best selling album in the world and the first best selling album in the world in different years, but can only really go off wiki to prove the point.

jyoung Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Fucking love this place for moments like this. Ariana Grande vs Paul McCartney in the efests battle of 'who has more hits?' Cries from the old of "What do you mean the kids don't listen to Pink anymore?"' and bewildering looks from the youngens who ask "How many streams has Macca got on Spotify?" Who wins? A poll decides... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only concern is that the hologram would become sentient and end up with 95% of Macca's fee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
