    Feel for that bloke having to go into work after being being beamed to the nation by the BBC crying to Candle in the Wind!
    My wife said he’s probably an accountant who’s gone there with a few mates, got off his nut for the first time and his family are all watching and cringing back at home.

    I really hope he does Tiny Dancer....love that song
    My favourite of his too.  Think he'd have been better just singing it by himself though.

    This fake Kiki Dee is good.

    And the bloke doing his own song earlier had a good voice (and it's a good song).

    I think the bald percussionist is the same guy that used to do the Albert Hall with Eric Clapton in the 80's

    Crocodile Rock reminds me when I lived in Australia, and this song was on the first LP I ever received. I lived in Australia from when I was 2 years old until 9 years old. First Elton song I heard.

    It’s a tough call, but I think it’s my fave Elton song

    Yes, Ray Cooper. Fantastic percussionist but a nutcase

    Yusuf Cat and Reg from Pinner both excellent still.

    I think Reg is even better tonight than he was at The Valley in 2006.

    Got to be honest wasn’t expecting to enjoy it as much as I am, very good, some proper classic songs.

    Elton's music really is timeless, so many fantastic songs.

    How refreshing it is to see a festival crowd that are just enjoying the show rather than spending the entirety on their phone filming it.

    Wonder if he’ll bring Taupin on to take a bow.

    You requested it. 5 minutes later. He plays it.

    This is crazy good. You usually expect the ‘legends’ performing at Glasto to be a bit underwhelming (especially at that age) but he has totally smashed it out the park

    No Dua Lipa is a surprise. Think he’s a bit surprised to by the “she isn’t here you’d better sing her part” comment. But maybe I’m just a conspiracy theorist. He’d have been as well just singing sacrifice.

    I’m surprised he did the Dua Lipa collaboration (especially as she wasn’t there) as it means he won’t do Rocket Man which I definitely thought would be on the set list. Guess you have to make some sacrifices when you have such an incredible library of hits to choose from.

    Ignore me - he’s still doing it!

    Think that Dua Lipa song gave him a bit of a breather!  Don't blame him.
