Dua Lipa

Thought it was amazing. Not quite as good as Stormzy but still brilliant

She didn’t do her own sound check and it showed, vocals were okay but if she did the check this morning it would have been better. 
 

it was still amazing, and she put her hart in it and it showed. 

You think a glasto headliner (via their tech) didn’t sound check their mic?! Ridiculous shout. Course they did.

[efcfanwirral]

Thought it was incredible start to finish. Amazing atmosphere too

She absolutely smashed it … best headliner on pyramid I’ve seen in 17 years in my opinion 

 

Ahhhh come on! Best in 17 years?????

 

Behave yourself!

Amazing atmosphere down front for dua,  it was a massive party. The production was great, fantastic spectacle, up there with one of the most fun headliners I've seen.

Wind your neck in?

What’s the deal with her vocals? People here saying she doesn’t lip-synch, but to me that didn’t sound 100% ‘live’. 

[Hotfry]

Best pop act in last 17 years certainly.

There was definitely a backing track in places. Was noticeable when she went off piste to talk to the crowd and you could still hear her singing in the background even though she herself was talking to the crowd.

Give Ova!

 

Radiohead and Blur have both played in those 17 years and thats just for starters.

 

Not to mention Elton last year.

You're assuming you have the say on what someone else thinks is the best. Wind your neck in.

Oh Absolutely.....for someone to say she was the best headliner in 17 years is nakedly transparent hyperbole abuse.

 

Objectively she clearly wasnt....

Based on the telly coverage it looked as good as it was ever likely to be, without ever quite pushing into classic status. The best pop headliner since Adele but no more than that. She seems nice though so I’m happy it went well for her.

I was standing next to the gates they put in to create her a pathway to get to the mini stage and she walked past twice. Overall I thought the performance was great but the atmosphere in the crowd at the front was a little flat.

Didn’t go down brilliantly in the pit either, when we all realised how little effort he put in on every level. She rescued it from that low point though.

Didn’t see either , did see Elton … tbf it was a split decision . Although just the day has helped and actually making it . When I was fairly close to thinking I wouldn’t on medical grounds 

[Crazyfool01]

Tame and the song after definately flattened it a touch

it was pretty damn live. Put on headphones and listen. You can tell when she is on the mic which is 95% of the  whole set. Theres some sections where she is dancing and theres backing track going but thats by design moreso. There is no crystal clear moment where you think its lip sync and then you hear her voice cut in and such. I dont know where it came about that somebody like Dua isnt doing mad cardio to be able to pull these shows off.  Also because she used a real microphone and not the earpiece mic you cant fake your vocals cause its obvious.  Im sure because Adele was strolling around and belting it out you think everyone has to do it that way, but thats not how it is. 
 

still weird that people think a show thats supposed to run like clockwork is not a good thing. Yeah, the Tame Impala moment had its slip up but that was a small reality check into the well oiled machine?

Not understanding the hate Tame Impala (the entity) is getting online.

 

The first two albums are masterpieces, Lonerism in particular.

Less I Know the Better for a huge pop in the part of the hill I was on, mainly from me and the good lady but it still counts.

You need help. His opinion isn't objective. Again... wind your sh*t in.

Perhaps it's the later descent into bland yacht rock
