Best Glastonbury Sing-A-Long ever

[Tugger2k]

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

[DaveMac]

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

[tanko]

Don't forget..... Rock the Casbah outside 'the wine bar'

[glastonburynoodles]

Yeah - I remember that ! Was great in spite of rain and mud. Ace memory !

Can't think of another singalong at Glasto quite like that i.e. on that scale.

[MrMac]

I always find it easier when you don't need to remember too many words...

[Petewasbristol]

I was on the front barrier for Sir Paul and Hey Jude was just one of those 'Glastonbury' moments. The noise generated was just incredible and when he got the different sections of the crowd to sing it back to him (Think it was men and women) he had everyone in the palm of his hand.

Was probably the most moved I have ever felt after a song...well until he started Yesterday etc etc!!!

What a show he put on that night, very very special

Coldplay - Yellow (first time they headlined).

Robbie - Angels.

Both times everyone sang some of the verses as well as the chorus.

(Women, eh?)

Hey Jude was pretty damn amazing!

[Wooderson]

Hey Jude, no doubt about it. Not that many songs you can get just the girlies to sing along to on their own. Theyre normally so shy.

[Boris]

Agreed... Hey Jude it is.

Glorious wine-swaddled joy!

The Karma Police moment sent shivers down my spine but my favourite wasn't a song but a full set, and not a mega name either.

The Saw Doctors a couple of years ago played the avalon tent and from the secong the first chord was played to the very end the crowd just sang to every word. I been to sooo many gigs but never experienced anything that good (though Rolf also in avalon in 98 wasnt far off)

[Ricochet]

the impromtu rendition of bohemian rhapsody as everyone traipsed through market after (i think) the killers in 07 was a memorable one.

[Magic Bus]

Last year - The Feeling and "Video Killed The Radio Star"....granted it was a cover and it was relatively early in the day, but it had a great response!!

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

[mjcolbert]

Probably not the biggest but Rodrigo y Gabriella

doing an instrumental version of Wish You were here.

on the Jazz World Stage

For me it was the Levellers in 94

I now its on the first page, but it was just so great. The weather was fantastic and everybody was having a great great time. I was sat back up on the hill completely wasted and completely happy, everybody as far as the eye could see was singing and dancing.

That's when I knew how powerful the Levellers and Glastonbury could be.

Magical

coldplays "yellow" and arctic monkeys "when the sun goes down" are pretty damn good and are both on youtube.

I think it was The Subways, but I agree. We usually watch the opener on the Pyramid, and these guys came on after and put on a real show.

[popcornmaster]

i'd possibly go with LSF or One day like this both mentioned already

obvious Hey jude is untouchable, i get goose bumps watching it and i wasnt there and not the biggest beatles fan neither but still unbelievable.

I think blur will be serious contender for a close second, practically all their singles are classic sing a long songs

[Cheesey]

Yellow from Coldplay in 2002 has been mentioned a couple of times, but not Trouble, which was good fun too (FF to ~3:15 for the best part):
