Why does he always turn up to spoil events it is the same old stuff over and over again, now he is next up to close the olympics.
Why did he have to turn up on the bike forum
He's there, for the simple reason that Ringo is busy doing Thomas.
😆 @ chunky
Because he's a massively talented icon who wrote songs that have defined and inspired couple of generations, regardless of whether you like him or not. 🙂
Got to have at least one Scouser, otherwise their whining will be insufferable.
😉
Rather him than Elton fluckin John.At least McCartney has a decent past.
Elton John sold the gap between his teeth. He raised forty quid for charity...and you are knocking him? Shame on you Dez.
Oh yes Elton :(!!!
im more annoyed about the fact Cheryl Cole was on stage behind the queen - why?

Harry's just tweeted it was because she had her finger up her Majesty's bum.
Someone should shove something in that gap between his teeth. Then I'd never have to hear that crappy pub singer voice again.
At least Cheryl Cole's got a nice face.
i was glad to see mcartney on the piano tbh, was a nice change to see him fingering something with more than one leg.

small mercies. Could have been one of his wives.

After the divorce, he swore it was the last time he'd go down on one knee.
(I'll get my own coat, thanks)
That's the cherry that sits right on top of this LOLcake CFH....
lol @ cfh.
Can't stand McCartney and his pokey little mouth smugly churning out old karaoke songs. Liked Stevie Wonder and Kylie though. Cheryl looked lost and drowned out on stage with Boring Barlow, no idea why she was there...eye candy maybe?
😆 😆 😆
[wipes away tears]
Jolly well done 😀
I couldn't stomach a single moment of that dreary musical non-event
Harry's just tweeted it was because she had her finger up her Majesty's bum.
sc-xc - cheers for that, got hot bovril drink comin out my nose now
Don't get me wrong, I wasn't [i]watching[/i] it. Went to the pub with my brothers, expecting to avoid it and it was on a massive screen.
"I'M SHTILL SHTANDING" What a friggin row.
Martymac, thanks very much. That's had me in
Years for a while.
He has to do do extra gigs as his new wife spends twice as much on shoes
A friend has just spent the last 3 months tooling round the Americas with macca. Apparently he certainly knows how to maximise his income stream. Oh, and the new wife is much better than the last one.
What I don't really understand is will.I.am - is he representing the former colonies?

As part of the Beatles he did more than that, much more than that. The Beatles also influenced fashion, art, the film industry, and comedy. They [i]massively[/i] increased Britain's standing in the world, making anything produced in Britain have special cool/trendy/hip appeal. They were of huge economic benefit to Britain, helping many British companies increase their sales and profits. They were the launching pad for the careers of other British bands across the world, they attracted talent to Britain, made London "swinging" and put Liverpool on the global map. They were the most popular band the world has ever seen. They made people proud to be British.
The Beatles achievements can't be overstated imo. Although not a huge fan myself - the Stones were better imo.
Just read this in a post about Prince Phillip gaffs:
[i]"I wish he'd turn the microphone off!" The Prince expresses his opinion of Elton John's performance at the 73rd Royal Variety Show, 2001.[/i]
That's not a gaff.
Can't stand McCartney and his pokey little mouth smugly churning out old karaoke songs.
You know he wrote them?
What a rancid little thread this is.

slagging off Macca may well be a bit dull.. but do you think the Maj really enjoyed the show..?
It was a trite and very dreary performance of some trite and very dreary music from a trite and very dreary genre..
You'd think that a woman who wears a brooch hewn from the largest diamond ever discovered on this planet might have access to some of the best music ever discovered.. so why the haggard old pop..?

I couldn't bear the thought of him singing... I hated the bit when he was standing in the background with his mouth like a...

cats arse.

That's a touching concern for Her Majesty's enjoyment of the occasion yunki - it doesn't quite match the sentiments which you've suggested in your recent posts.
Are you starting to feel sympathetic towards your sovereign queen ?
She has an uncanny ability to win hearts, doesn't she bless her ?
Was it all for her then?
Without a care for the million plebs in the street?
and put Liverpool on the global map
Not sure about that, wasnt Liverpool a massively important global city during the late 19th and early 20th century.
Werent the Beatles really just the last big thing to come out of it before it went into decline ?
My wife was wondering of Sir Elton's pub singing voice was a product of his botox?
I walked into the room while it was on and was thinking Vic Reeves pub singer...

Perhapse she quite enjoyed it?
But this being STW it should definatley have been a late 80's hardcore punk lineup.
Personaly I'd liked to have sene Skrillex play god save the queen from the roof in a Robert Plant style!
Yes Liverpool was important long before the Beatles. It became renowned throughout the world as the home of the Beatles. It undoubtedly benefited from its association with the Beatles, as did the other bands associated to the mersey sound/beat.

Ah, so the Beatles were responsible for ruining Liverpool and triggering the decline of a once great city ...

Surely it was the otherway round to a large extent. The Beatles gained from coming from such an important place as Liverpool and gave them some extra kudos in the beginning. They left Liverpool and became bigger and bigger but Liverpool even with the extra tourism/interest from the Beatles/mersey sound/beat has continued to slowly decline.
surely, it could have been an event that everyone could benefit from, plebs and royalty alike..?
In days of yore the cream of the world's talent would have been summoned to create a spectacle of dazzling intrigue and err, majesty.. something to blow our minds and make us look at the world in a fresh light..
what we got was Barlow versus Eurodisney in a cringeworthy hackneyed cheese-a-thon
I thought it was Roy Hodgesons fault
Liverpool was an important city when Britain's trade was mostly in a westerly direction and mostly based on the slave triangle.
However Liverpool cut its own throat by stealing cargo, striking and overcharging the increasingly important cotton manufacturers of Manchester who lost patience, pooled their resources and built a big canal avoiding Liverpool port and bringing ocean freighters straight into Salford docks. Scousers have been whining about the unfairness of life ever since.
How Liverpool was once voted European Capital of Culture is anybody's guess. I'd have thought London, Paris or Barcelona would get that accolade.
He's a musical Battle of Britain fly past, something from a time long ago historically of relevance but that's about it nowadays. I would also rather listen to an Avro Lancaster than his dreary crap
