2020 headliners

[CaledonianGonzo]

Granted I'd be a damn sight smugger if the Chemical Brothers had delivered a classic, but in the event my pre festival view that the Saturday night was a bit barren was proven out.  The day peaked at Lizzo.

[Hugh Jass]

I had a fantastic time at the Killers and am not too proud to admit it.

[CaledonianGonzo]

The Killers have one universally-recognised song, which is one more than beardface and the lads.

I just can’t see Taylor Swift headlining myself. Apart from Shake It Off, she hasn’t really got no big songs that could appeal to the casual Glasto goer. So don’t it will go down too well.

Except for Bad Blood, I Knew You Were Trouble, We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, Look What You Made Me Do...

I feel it’s important we nip this one in the bud right now...

If Elton John is playing Glastonbury’s 50th anniversary, in the midst of his own farewell tour, there is no way he isn’t headlining.

It's literally impossible to nip bids round here, I give it 3 days till someone else rocks up with Elton Legends Suggestion (you're all free to take that as a band name if you wish).

That’s what I’m saying, those songs aren’t really for the casual fan who may not know a lot of her back catalogue.

I'm about as far from a Tay Tay fan as you can get, but i'm well aware of all of those...

[CaledonianGonzo]

They were all big UK hits

[DickButkis]

Can’t be that big hits surely, never even heard of them.

Or this... (actually starts at 2 mins)

Again, I'm not a Taylor Swift fan but I would recognise some of her songs. 

Here are her "biggest 20 charts hits" - and even I know a few.

Miley Cyrus's enormo-crowd wigging out to We Can't Stop and Wrecking Ball shows the G is no longer the sole preserve of the fans of real music by credible artists.

[Matt42]

Taylor would set the entire festival on fire. People would be dressing up and everything.

Taylor Swift has it in her to do one of the best Glastonbury sets ever. SHE just needs to WANT to do it.

[Matt42]

She needs to play all too well on the pyramid. She NEEDS to. 

Can we all refuse to go home / block her tour bus on the way out until she does?

[BlueDaze]

I just watched those 2 'Bambers' (sorry) and can honestly say its the first time ive heard them... albeit here voice sounds familiar. (a bit nasally though isnt it..??)

I dont listen to the Radio 1/2 type of stations that she probably dominates... I do have 2 daughters in their twenties though so am aware of her popularity.

This year was my 10th Glastonbury but i am not a 'real music' bore.. Stormzy, Hot Chip and JM were my headliners this year and i enjoyed them all..

I am positive she would fill the big field but always feel it should be about performance over number of hits.. (Adele being one of the few that really does both)

Would rather see Gaga tbh... Is TS any good live.?

And we see you over there on the internet
Comparing all the girls who are killing it

[DickButkis]

Just had a little listen, she’d probably do okay in a similar time slot Katy Perry or Miles Cyrus played.

What would a Taylor dressing up outfit consist of?  I can't think of an iconic look of hers like I can for say Kylie, Madonna or Gaga

Well I for one will definitely pay homage to this

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Perfect
