Olivia Rodrigo takes Lily Allen to sing “F *** You” while Roe vs. Wade dumped

Saturday in Glastonbury have seen some of the best sets of the weekend so far.

From Joy Crookes making her Worthy Farm debut to returning champion Haim in a glorious, sunny performance at the Pyramid Stage, there was a particularly special atmosphere ahead of the long-awaited starter Sir Paul McCartney.

Other great shows came from Glass Animals, Metronomy, Celeste and Gen-Z pop star Olivia Rodrigo, who stormed the Other Stage with a surprise appearance by Lily Allen. Playing Allen’s 2012 hit “F *** You,” the duo appealed to the Supreme Court for its annulment of Roe vs. Wade in the United States.

Climbing the Pyramid Stage just before Macca, Noel Gallagher and his High Flying Birds performed a series of Oasis hits that pleased the crowd, prompting critic Mark Beaumont to wonder if the gloves were ‘they had completely withdrawn in their sibling rivalry with their younger brother and former bandmate. Liam.

Paul McCartney heads the Pyramid stage!

We’re a little baffled here at home, because it looks like Paul McCartney’s BBC broadcast doesn’t start until an hour after he comes to the Pyramid Stage for his Saturday headline post!

Highel Flying Birds review by Noel Gallagher, Glastonbury 2022: the band that could have been Oasis of the last era

(PA)

“What’s going to happen here now,” says Noel Gallagher, approaching the microphone in the middle of his set, emanating energy from Mike Lynch, “is that I’m going to play you a couple more tunes that you don’t care so much about. “But if you stay after that, go, there will be a lot of very happy people with bucket hats …”

Could gloves be taken off in the world’s most infamous sibling rivalry? After a few years in a dramatic mess, reduced to a one-way capital lock slang match on Twitter, Gallagher’s last season against Gallagher has risen substantially. The young fattening fighter Liam has become the couple’s amazing success at the stadium level, based on playing a good old-fashioned hit of Oasis ’big hits on their solo sets (who knew?). Big brother – and a former Glastonbury guardian of the scourge of hip-hop – Noel, meanwhile, continues his creative renaissance with the High Flying Birds, who only hide from their own Knebworth playing clean. His bursts of Oasis songs have been largely songs he sang on an album, with ensembles with mid-beat acoustic songs but without the punch of a “Supersonic” or “Rock’n’Roll Star.”

The High Flying Birds are (non-accidental partridge) the band that could have been Oasis of the last era. After all, the fall of Oasis in the 2000s was largely due to Noel removing album track fill spaces to his bandmates. Now back at the forefront of songwriting and with an exploratory psycho-rock mindset, for twelve years he has produced three increasingly impressive and imaginative albums of galactic glam, motor rock and some of the most phenomenal scissor games ever. you have seen. an international stage.

Famous percussionist Charlotte Marionneau’s clippers come out again during “She Taught Me How to Fly,” and she also adds a solo call to the stratospheric “It’s a Beautiful World”. Not just tricks, but curiosities that indicate Gallagher’s willingness to follow friend and mentor Paul Weller into more exploratory sound territories. “Fort Knox” is a hypnotic fire dance rock storm, “Black Star Dancing” a psychedelic groove worthy of Jungle. “Holy Mountain” sounds, brilliantly, like Wizzard covering Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs” with a penny whistle. The first half of the set, even if it’s just for Christmas, is easily the most exciting.

It’s not that half of the Oasis isn’t an exciting business. “You’ve got it,” Noel says as he launches into “Little By Little” and the field explodes. Keeping the fraternal feud above his belt, he gives the ground of rock’n’roll to Liam and adheres to the acoustic songs and high hymns: “Wonderwall”, “Whatever”, “Stop Crying Your Heart Out”, ” Half the World “. Outside ”.

“Let the deception begin,” he jokes before “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” a plea to the crowd to worry about “Hey Jude.” It is an intelligent and conciliatory movement; all the best soap operas need a clash of characters.

Review by Olivia Rodrigo – Other Stage

Anyone who tells you that this year’s Glastonbury is stuck in the 1970s, it’s clear that it hasn’t been on Olivia Rodrigo’s show, where you can find the highest concentration of teenagers screaming outside of TikTok.

The warm afternoon sunlight shines with its knee-length DMs, the mirror mosaic piano and the violet electroacoustic guitar, this is one of the most iridescent and sweet shows on Saturday at Worthy Farm.

Although best known for her grungy hit “good 4 u”, Rodrigo has a back catalog full of ballads about lovelessness. Today her performance includes “happier,” “hope your ok” and a song she says is from her childhood acting career that she presents as “Iowa.” Highlights his breakthrough, “driver’s license,” very soon.

Then comes a surprise version of Avril Lavigne’s 2003 grunge hit, “Complicated,” during which Rodrigo kicks the piano. That alone would have been enough to delight this crowd of deer eyes. But then Rodrigo announces that he will bring a special guest. At first, it looks like the words “Billie Eilish” have come out of her lips. And it would make sense: the headliner of Pyramid Stage played the night before. But it turns out it’s just her accent, because it’s Lily Allen who takes the stage and sets the stage for a big moment of the festival.

“Yesterday, the Supreme Court decided to overturn the law that allowed safe abortion,” Rodrigo says. “I am devastated and terrified and many women and girls will die because of it.

“I will dedicate this song to the judges of the Supreme Court. I hate you.”

Allen, dressed in monochrome with a Chanel clamp, looks a little shy, a little deliriously happy, as she duets with a lush Rodrigo. The “deja vu” continues, and for a moment it seems as if Rodrigo isn’t dropping his biggest hit. But he makes a “good 4 u” on his purple microphone, with a lot of support from a crowd that sounds louder than ever. Yes, it might be true that Paul McCartney will play later, but for now the zoomers are taking the wheel.

Ghetts dominates the John Peel stage

At John Peel, my favorite Ghetts comes at the end of a phenomenal, energy-driven set. Honestly, I’m still a little discouraged because he didn’t win the Mercury Prize last year for his amazing and best conflict of interest. But you’ll never catch it chasing industry approval, ever. He has always done his thing. And it’s gratifying to see how far this has taken him, with such a large crowd today in Glastonbury.
