Re: God save the Queen
thx char...i'd like to see a close up of that image
i wonder if that's Queen Vic or an earlier portrait of QEII on the wall behind the Queen's head in this portrait?
i taped the American network's coverage (maybe it was a BBC feed) and FF'ed straight to the music bits so I missed all the stuff they are talking about here:

Re: God save the Queen
i guess the Queen is like the Leafs ... lots of love or hate out there, and lotsa $$$
quite the stats http://news.nationalpost.com/2012/06...y-the-numbers/
would have been nice to have a Canadian performer too (Stevie is USA and Kylie is Aussie, no?)...wow, old Tom Jones has maintained his voice (and tan, lol)

Re: God save the Queen
my favourite band Madness played on the roof of the palace during the concert! that was the highlight for me.

Re: God save the Queen
I don't know who they are Dan but they were quite impressive as was the artwork displayed on the palace walls as they played..

Re: God save the Queen
Didn't Madness do "Our House" in the '80s? I love that song!

Re: God save the Queen
I saw the fireworks display that was done over Buckingham Palace & thought it was magnificent to see. And the music that was played along with it was equally marvelous to hear. One couldn't help but feel a part of the whole thing.

Re: God save the Queen

because of the camera angle, it looks as if she's talking to a man in a dress, lol
