Lewis Capaldi Glastonbury Special

You should watch the 2025 movie 'I Swear', the true story of John Davidson a Scottish guy living with Tourette's, I guarantee it will break you.
Concerts are one of my favourite things in this world. Thousands or tens of thousands of people all together for something as simple and complex as music. The atmosphere of a good concert is something otherworldly.
This was a special watch 🥲
Anybody who doesnt cry at that performance must have a heart of stone.Love Lewis he makes me proud to be Scottish!Hes got a great sense of humour which is rare with artists but he dont care.glad he took time to himself to get well ❤️
You should definitely check out more of Glastonbury festival, one of our biggest music festivals. It's incredible and the whole event is so diverse. I actually grew up in Glastonbury and although the festival is held down the road in Pilton, it has a massive impact on the local towns as you'd expect. It falls around the time that the local Year 11s are taking their GCSEs. We had to queue for ages to get to school and some people just went to the festival instead 😂
I find Glastonbury a little bit depressing these days, because the bands and artists I grew up with are slowly being replaced by artists I have no clue about, with music that doesn't resonate. There used to be a few 'old school' headliners I could get behind, but these days they're all disappearing or way past their best. I still love it though,mainly for the obscure acts and international music, but Glastonbury now feels more like an event for younger generations than old fogies like myself.
If Taylor is a huge fan, Lewis made a documentary about his Tourette’s journey. It’s called how I’m feeling now and is on Netflix In the UK. His return to Glastonbury also featured this very emotional song called Survive, which was the first time he sang it, I was in tears watching it live as well as a lot of the crowd! https://youtu.be/6fJI7xydShM?si=ETxu8zffJLFAiXSr
Each year there is a surprise secret slot as Glastonbury and people figured it out and something like 200, 000 people turned up as you can see, this was his first return performance ❤️ (google estimate) check out his Graham Norton appearances if you ever need a laugh Will add some more epic glasto performances to the Yt playlist as there have been some incredible moments over the years
Despite all the negativity and hate in this world, that 2023 performance reminded us that there is still some (much needed) decency and good will in this world. My friend's son (who's still quite young) unfortunately has a severe tick and stammer, and has been struggling to cope with the social aspect of his illness. The 2023 performance was the first thing I thought of showing him, because it really highlights how people are willing to love, accept and understand those who are struggling, far more than the minority of people who decide to bully and mock.
I was lucky enough to see him live. One of the best concerts ever and I've seen some amazing artists. Thanks for doing this reaction x
Not sure if you picked up on it, (sorry just noticed, you DID notice it), but due to his severe tourettes, twitching, etc he could not sing properly, so the crowd just stepped in, took up the slack, and helped him to finish the song, a truly talented man, shown so much love by his fans, great stuff.....
