It’s certainly changed. She’s had vocal chord issues I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing could be further from the truth. OK she's got three songs I've heard of plus a Roxy Music cover which charted at 35. No number ones or top 10 hits and only three top twenty hits. Single chart positions certainly aren't everything when judging a musician - except when it come to the legends slot perhaps. No matter how much you like her, she doesn't fit the bill in my opinion. It needs someone with loads of hits that everyone knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure we could find a slot for her, either early afternoon on the Pyramid (which may feel like a bit of a waste) or high up WH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subbing WH feels right to me or maybe headlining, but that seems a push. Edited July 30, 2018 by stuartbert two hats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 I think WH headliner feels right for her. Wasn't there talk on here about her possibly even being out of WH's budget? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stokesy10 Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 Blatantly already been mentioned but - Celine would be great IMO. Unsure what her current situation is or if she's performed much since the passing of her husband/boss. One of the greatest vocalists of all time though and some great tracks for an emotional pissed up sunny Sunday afternoon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of my head, I couldn't tell you the names of any of her songs other than the one from that film, and that AC/DC cover that someone posted here a while back. Quite what emotions I'd be going through during your prospective Sunday afternoon is anyone's guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the 1st 10 seconds of this alone she should never be allowed to perform anywhere, ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't watch it whilst I was at GF but I've seen it back in parts - I had no doubt it wouldn't, certainly not knocking her. But out of the two I'd have 100% watched Celine.
