Yes, a typical great performance from Laura singing "World in Union" (until spoiled by a rapper). Again I am astonished that she wasn't asked to sing the National Anthem.

I'd previously made a joke about a duet between Kanye West & Laura so I was concerned when the rapping started! Fortunately the statements made during it were significant and important to the event and besides that what a brilliant young soloist who kicked it all off.
Hopefully there'll be little else in the rap area of music for Laura.
As for the Anthem - the players did a really good job of it but they and the crowd obviously gave the band a problem of whether to slow down or carry on regardless at times.

I just loved this performance, no butts about it, it was great.
The World in Union starts at about 5 minutes 25 seconds
Well done Laura, BRilliant.

Just a little reminder of how gently World in Union can be sung. From Union Chapel
THANKS DREW . Magic two camera positions and great sound.

Thanks Paul for this reminder of both song and wonderful concert. No one has really matched Laura for this song, except perhaps our cherished kiwi friend!  Cheers Martin |

Thanks Paul for the video and Martin for the reminder that Laura isn't the only person to record this anthem. Following the kiwi comment I went looking on youtube and found the video of Hayley on Loose Women. Gosh I got goosebumps listening to it - Hayley please do some UK concerts soon please! Anyway I found this recent recording of Laura performing World in Union with almost no backing at all and it is perfection. I love the gentler emotion that she brings to the song. mfi.re/listen/ci2bl3nli54rpjs/World_In_Union_Live.mp3Michael |
