Last night I had the pleasure of accompanying Emeli Sande as an audience member and self-promoted number one stan. Having waited 294 days (tickets were purchased 29 December, a Christmas present that I spent 10 months waiting for).
Depending on the discussion Emeli Sande may not be at the top of the list for everyone but that’s fine with me. I’m happy to be the anomaly when it comes to music. After practically dropping multiple hints to my sister I was filled with excitement when I received the vouchers to attend Emeli Sande’s tour for her newly released Long Live The Angels album. I feel a certain connection towards Emeli Sande’s music and can clearly remember the first time I was introduced to her music. It was Twin B’s show on 1xtra many many years ago.
Standing in the crowd of a minimum of 5,000 people by myself didn’t bother me, I was just left in awe. Attending concerts has always been a past time of mine usually with family or friends but I found it refreshing and liberating to have the memories of going to see Emeli Sande solo.
Some of my favourite songs from Long Live The Angels are: Give Me Something, Tenderly and Highs & Lows and Babe. Take a listen below and let me know what your favourite songs are:
