Line-up announced for Queen’s jubilee sing song
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 8 February 2012
Shirley Bassey, Elton John, Paul McCartney and Tom Jones will lead a special concert outside Buckingham Palace on 4 Jun to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, so that’s fun. JLS, Jessie J and Ed Sheeran will do their bit to represent artists not born when Her Maj became Queen in 1952 at the Gary Barlow organised, BBC broadcast royal musical shindig.
The main thing I remember about the concert staged to mark the Queen’s golden jubilee in 2002 was that it was Paul Cattermole’s final show with the first incarnation of the S Club 7 before he went off to join that super successful rock band, and if that’s what’s sticking in my mind, that jubilee show was clearly a remarkable melting pot of creative genius and delightful musical moments. God save the Queen.
