- As Glastonbury collaborations go, Paul Heaton reunited with Norman Cook is right up there. Half the Housemartins, complete with the dance routine from the video? It’s Happy Hour again on BBC Four! #Glastonbury
00:00 - I know it’s all about #Oasis… but we can have a moment for the sonic explosion that is seventy thousand people breaking into Bittersweet Symphony! #Oasis25 #OasisLive25 #Cardiff #RichardAshcroft
00:00 - Driving through the Brecon Beacons tonight. Was expecting a few by-election posters, but surprised to see what looked like a Brexit Party bus, crashed into a hedge. Got out to check all was ok. No one around, just an abandoned bus, doors open, side-on, blocking a lay-by...
- Nile Rodgers’ Chic are just joyful - one of the best bands you can catch at a festival. But seeing #Glastonbury security staff join in the moves for ‘Le Freak’ adds a little extra sunshine to your Sunday!🕺🏻 #Chic #Glastonbury2025
00:00 - If you've ever danced to Get Down On It, Jungle Boogie, Celebration, Ladies Night, Summer Madness, Fresh... raise a glass to the funky soul legend Ronald Bell, founding member of Kool and The Gang. Thanks for the fabulous floor-fillers. #RIP #RonaldBell x.com/DaneshMike/sta…
- A sad day as Johnnie Walker hosts his final radio show. Millions of us will miss his warmth, love of music, the stars who sounded like mates… and you were our incorrigible, irreverent mate, who had all the best rock’n’roll stories. Sail on safely, Pirate JW. 📻 #JohnnieWalker
- Dexys Midnight Runners doing ‘Jackie Wilson Said’ at Glastonbury, complete with Jocky Wilson on the big screen? They know how to please the folks who love their Friday night #TOTP on BBC Four! 📺 #Glastonbury #Dexys
00:00 - Squeeze celebrating their 50th anniversary by opening Glastonbury. Seen them live countless times. They *never* disappoint (check out their YouTube channel!) Bit baffled why they haven’t made the telly or iPlayer coverage this year? #Squeeze #Glastonbury
- Farewell, Mike Peters. The saddest news about one of the nicest guys in rock. The Alarm’s frontman spent much of the last 30 years living with cancer. His optimism and resilience in the face of adversity was inspiring. You lived a life of love, hope and strength. 💔 #MikePeters
- Farewell Rick Davies, founding member of Supertramp. The singer, keyboardist and co-writer behind so many classics, including Breakfast in America, Dreamer and Bloody Well Right. Remembering Rick here in his prime, singing Goodbye Stranger. #RickDavies
- Remembering Stuart Cable, who would have turned 50 today. Former Stereophonics drummer, @BBCRadioWales presenter and just one of those life-affirming guys, whose candle burned bright. Hard to believe you left us 10 years ago next month.
- If you've ever sung or danced to ‘Smalltown Boy’ raise a glass to Steve Bronski tonight. A powerful and groundbreaking anthem from Bronski Beat. 🙏🏼 #RIP #BronskiBeat x.com/80sVideoHits1/…
- Quite a sight to see nearly 200,000 people blasting out ‘Da Ya Think I’m Sexy’ with Rod Stewart at #Glastonbury. Love how this has gone from being a cheesy disco hit… to the biggest guilty pleasure of them all! 🕺🏻 #RodStewart #Glastonbury2025
