JFC.....the almighty swinging knackers on Cher - with a voice that ain't always the loveliest - to get up on that stage.

I don't understand the hate for Cher's voice. It's distinctive, sure, but I've never thought it was unpleasant. What's up with it?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hate's a strong word. It ain't my favourite pair of pipes on the planet, but fucking hell.....given how good Tina Turner is...

Obviously Tina Turner would be preferable if she hadn't retired years ago.  Cher over Diana Ross anyday.

 I am just talking about the film clip, bud.

Cher will kick ass. I'm super fucking excited 

[dentalplan]

I love how Cher's Twitter is 2% promotion of her music career and 98% randomly-uppercase politics. In this day and age it's all I want in a performer.

Her vocoder version of Gimme Gimme Gimme fucking bounces.

 This is going to be incredible.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Listening to her version of SOS

Celine over everyone mentioned.

Yeh I went there.

[shuttlep]

is Carly Simon still singing?

 

 

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Might be. Might not be. Not really relevant to the topic at hand.

Damn, my heart was set on Kylie. But still, it's motherfucking Cher, it'll be amazing.

What's happened for it to be thought it's defo Cher?

[brettredmayne]

I'm still going for Kylie, seen bits of her radio 2 at Hyde park and think it would go down amazingly

I asked her on Twitter and she didn't deny it.

I think she'll play but not the Legends slot. I could definitely see her playing 3rd down Pyramid like Katy Perry did but I reckon she might sub it on the Sunday evening.

Not a solitary mention of it on @cher

I was thinking, I checked her twitter and saw nothing of it recently in tweets and replies

[dentalplan]

In gullibly looking for that I spotted that The Sun reported last week, from their "music industry insider", that Glastonbury courted her and she was interested until she heard the fee she'd be getting. Fucking lies though man.

[CaledonianGonzo]

That's odd.  Her mama used to dance for the money we'd throw.

watched the first minute of this and it made me think of the 94 and 95 lineups, an era where Kylie was getting into her prime. Could you imagine finding her a place on the bill back then? and nowadays some on here are clamoring for her, more Katy Perry-like slots 3rd down on pyramid...while some (dinosaurs like me) are hopeful the likes of The Cure, Simple Minds, Robert Plant, Elvis Costello make returns to the Pyramid next year...

I had a random original first-time thought (that no one on here has ever had) that the festival isn't what it used to be. 

See you at the Acoustic Stage 2019....

[Gucci Piggy]

Robert Plant and Elvis Costello have both played the Pyramid in the last few years...

[Winslow Leach]

And Simple Minds are shite.
