  • And where's George Michael?

  • Thanks for the video, it's great we can see and enjoy today.

    BG !!!!!!

  • Thanks for sharing this, you looked stunning.

  • NIK KERSHAW!

  • Why didn't Nik get a part to sing? That was not fair, is the best singer ever there, may he even not sing a little sentence! Ridiculous! (The same for Let It Be.)

  • Thank for this, awesome to watch, never seen it before!
