Best Glastonbury Sing-A-Long ever

[elfimaju]

Watching Radiohead in 2003 after following a link on another thread reminded me how loud the singalong was for Karma Police that year. Got me wondering which act and song got the most people singing. Glasvegas with Daddy Gone may have had a contender last year in the JP Tent but the real big stuff is going to be on the Pyramid. Post your ideas, with links if possible - should help get the juices flowing.

Elbow in 2008, Other Stage. We were still singing One Day Like This for ages after they'd left the stage and their gear had been packed away.

Best moment in 10 years of going.

Otherwise the second canidite would be The Universal by Blur in 1998, but that was ruined by some p*ssed up tw*ts I was stood next to who spent the whole set singing "WOOHOO!".

I've still got "Blakes got a new face" ringing in my ears from last year. That was a pretty good sing along at the Other stage. I remember that people were still shouting that out around site during the rest of the festival. Catchy. Wonder if Vampire Weekend might return this year?

Hey Jude.

I think the bit that goes "na-na-na-nana-na" was particular inclusive.

and i wasnt there but surely Bowie - Heroes must have been an enormous singalong considering the ridiculous numbers of people there

their not full on singalongs (ie whole tune being sung back) but there are moments when i swear it felt like the whole festy was singing)

[Tugger2k]

Oh i forgot that one, a real contender!!!

I seem to remember Roger Waters gettin the whole crowd singing 'Wish You Were Here', but ive been told recently that he didn't sing it. So im not sure...

Macca.. Hey Jude.. it went on well into the early hours of the next morning

I've only been going since 1990 but I'd say from then on Hey Jude.

Just what I was after - more of this please!

Me and a pal want to film ourselves singing a song by every band we go to see at Glastonbury, ad then upload it onto a website. We want other people to do it as well...

Would anyone here entertain the idea of filming themselves singing along to 1 song they hear at Glastonbury, and uploading it to the website?

just because of the size of the crowd - that was amazing

there doesnt seem to be any footage of Jimmy Cliff (2003) but i distinctly remember it stopped raining and he went into 'i can see clearly' and everybody around nearly blew their lungs out singing

Hey Jude was the best singalong I've experienced, but this has to be up there in terms of raw crowd enthusiasm:
