Everything you need to know about Adele’s AMAZING Glastonbury performance
The singer’s performance was the most anticipated of the weekend and the crowds stretched back as far as the eye could see.
Almost every member of the crowd sang in unison as she launched into the chorus of Hello and flares illuminated the sky.
After snapping the pic, an amused Adele said into the mic, “Oh my God, I just burped!” and started laughing – you know, her trademark cackle – then gave Maria a hug.
“This is the best f-king moment of my whole life”, she told the audience, before adding, “Glastonbury means the world to me”.
“I just want to say I really hope that we can all carry the spirit of Glastonbury home with us, because that would make me very happy”.
Before the referendum, Eavis and her father, festival founder Michael Eavis, had called for festival-goers to vote Remain. Yes, for some, Adele may not be headline material, but over the course of 90 minutes and 15 songs, she was the darling of the Glastonbury crowd. “It’s a bit weird all the stuff that’s going on at the moment, and we all need to look after each other”, Adele advised.
A member of the crowd who was overcome with emotion and ended up in tears was invited on stage.
The singer-songwriter performed a string of her hits during her one-hour set, including Burn and Anything Could Happen.
The famously honest singer also revealed that the BBC, who were airing the performance, warned her about her language.
“I’m nervous myself. I’ve got a twinge!”
The star-stuck woman could barely speak or hold her phone long enough to take a selfie, making Adele step in. “They were unbelievable, weren’t they?” That didn’t stop her from swearing like a trooper between emotional renditions of “Hello”, “Skyfall”, “Hometown Glory”, and more of her biggest songs.
The festival concludes with Coldplay headlining the Sunday night slot.
Don’t You Remember got a stripped-down outing. “I’ve had some of the best times of my life here on a Saturday night here at Glastonbury”, she told the crowd.
