An emotional Glastonbury weekend for Lewis Capaldi & Elton John

Published on

Lewis Capaldi has been open about his battle with Tourette syndrome and it has affected his live performances. Listen to the emotional moment he lost his voice during his performance at Glastonbury and the crowd helped him finish his set.

It was also an emotional weekend for Sir Elton John and his fans. The Rocket Man made his debut at Glastonbury festival which may be bitter sweet as his U.K. fans might not be able to see him live again.

“I never thought I’d play Glastonbury and here I am. It’s a very special and emotional night for me as it may be my last ever show in England, so I better play well and entertain you as you’ve been standing there so long.”
