Adele and Rihanna.

Florence's voice cuts through me like a knife. Disgusting.

I would agree with most of this accept the arrangement. The song can be done in a soulful way but I thought the music was a little too mellow.

I thought Adele sounded a little nervous and was a little off. Blur should have done The Universal, the songs they did didn't really work. Rihanna was surprisingly the best for me on the night.

Adele was worst, Coldplay was first so not many ppl remember them and how shit they were.

Olly Murs was the best

I don't think any of the performances were that good tbh.
I didn't like Bruno Mar's new arrangement of JTWYA and Adele's vocal wasn't as good as her Grammy performance. Florence was really shouty, she over sung her song.

Didn't see all of them but I have to go for Noel Gallagher and Blur, but also definitely hats off to Adele.

shocked that it isn't near unanimous for Florence, she was by far the best IMO. love Adele but she wasn't on form vocally, rihanna sounded a lot better than usual and i loved her outfit.

I thought they were all good to be honest, but then I'm not as picky as a lot on here I actually thought Ed Sheeran was brilliant considering the size of the venue and the occassion. And to those saying Blur were always rubbish live. BOLLOX. Saw them in about 1996 in Brighton and it was one of the best gigs EVER.

I enjoyed Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, Noel Gallagher.

Olly Murs was awful , Florence does nothing for me and it didn't change last night.

Adele good but thoroughly bored with her TBH.

Adele and Rihanna

Florence's performances are getting so boring. She had so much charisma and stage presence during her Lungs era but i find her so boring during her Cermeonials era performances. She needs to step her game up.

What i found annoying is the same predictable songs were performed. Haven't we heard Rolling In The Deep, Grenade, Lego House and We found love enough. All of them are huge sellers. Why remind of us? Why not do a new song from the latest album?

I thought that Florence's performance was not only the absolute clear stand out "million miles" above everything else last night, but actually the best live TV performance I've heard/seen from anyone ever on an actual TV show (I'm discounting festivals broadcast on TV and live concerts as thats always better and totally different).

After that Ed Sheeran was good, Coldplay ok, Blur ok.

Adele is just dull dull dull.

It's funny that people can have such differing opinions on the same thing. I've never enjoyed a Florence and the Machine performance, and I think Coldplay are dull, and Blur awful. And Adele was far from dull. Ed Sheeran was ok though, I agree. I am tempted to buy his album as what I've heard of him, I quite like.

adele was terrible...and im a huge Adele stan!

i have no idea why she sung rolling in the deep. she couldve sung something else from the album, everybody pretty much knows all the tracks by now anyway instead of a year old single.

Bruno Mars was the best i thought, at least he changed the song a bit and was entertaining...and i usually hate that song and im really not a fan of his

Sorry to be pedantic but he sang 'Just the way you are'

Tbf its an even older song than Grenade

Florence by MILES! I love this whole culty/druid style thing like if FLorence held a Disco in the pagan era or on a greek island this is what it would be like. I had absolute chills! Her voice always does that to me....sublime! just miles ahead of most that night!

Loved Rihannas performance with her yellow hair, paint spatters, choreo! very well done

And Blur at the end were so kinda nostalgic...dont get the hate but then again...Britpop is very marmite in general so...

but....very flat night tbh.

Blur were great, so was Noel & Bruno Mars (Even though I don't like him much) and Florence was fantastic too!

Noel, Bruno Mars, Blur (although they weren't on top form I enjoy hearing them) and Florence for me.

I want to say Adele and probably should as she certainly has the voice but I'm really not into her music.

I missed Coldplay so can't comment.
Olly... lol

Did anyone else perform I can't remember any others.
