Gah, jealous. I'm aching to see her live.

Each London date she's done recently has just been so inconvenient for me... the Koko dates were out of the question what with it being an over 18s venue and this one tonight is right in the middle of my exams...

Anyway, enough ranting, hope you have fun

Her concerts are obviously pretty relaxed, which will be a change for me because I'm used to high energy, bouncy concerts.

I can't wait, and only £10, too!

She was fantastic! (as were her band).

Such a good gig and her new songs are more upbeat, if a little bit tribal! They're class, though.

I got to meet her after the gig and got her autograph, too

Ahh, now I'm practically green with envy! What was she like?

She was lovely! She took so much time to speak to everyone who was waiting. She was really polite and quite cute!

Ner ner! - She also touched my hand! I never got a photo with her but my friend did (I wasn't very photogenic last night )

I was at the front up against the barrier for the gig and she kept looking at me, so I had to stop miming the songs in case I got the lyrics wrong

She's very professional but doesn't take things too seriously, which is great!

Aw wow sounds like you had a fantastic time then

It's great to hear that, despite all her recent success and exposure, she still takes the time out to speak to her fans, which is an extra added bonus at gigs.

I also get embarassed when performers look at me whilst I'm miming lyrics, however it's actually more embarassing when you've forgotten the words and mime the made up words you usually sing instead :P

I always make up words when I don't know them. At the gig I discovered some of the proper lyrics and the songs made soooo much more sense

So random... never felt like this about a song, but I cried to I Saw A Light because my mum said turn it off, it's too emotional!

SHE IS AMAZING! No one else does that to me *manly growl*

It's great to hear there will be new material soon. Sadly I haven't been able to see her live but I will do one day for sure.

Softy

Nah, it is a very powerful and at times emotionally overwhelming track, but in terms of getting teary-eyed, Sad Eyes is the one that gets me. If already feeling low, it's not one I'd recommend trying to cheer up to...

I never really cried, loser It was Sad Eyes as well (not I Saw A Light) I was drunk

In fact, the only time a song has made me cry was when Left Eye died and I listened to a sad song

so, yeah, *big manly chest punch*
