20 years later and he still sounds identical! Such a hugely underrated artist!

[leslietaylor]

He has still got it, a truly underrated artist

[dawnedawe]

The best singer ever to win any singing competition he still gives me goosebumps Will Young is the very finest

[gillstanley]

20 years to the day he sung this for the first time and I think it sounds better than ever. Simple, subtle and stunningly beautiful.

Will Young will always be our only number one pop idol. Was in 2002 still is in 2022.

[gaynorross]

I remember him on pop idol, no other talent show has been as good as that year

[ykhan]

Absolutely magical! What a wonderful voice Will has and the orchestra is fantastic. Thank you to Radio 2 for brightening up my day with this beautiful Piano Room performance.

Wow, this has such a huge nostalgic presence in my mind, born in '94.. I remember watching this with my mum in the living room.. And at the time feeling so much love.. Since then I grew up and made tonnes of mistakes.. But this will always take me back to a happy place with my mum, its amazing what music can do

[MichaelAnderson-cqrx]

This song is a classic. Proper throwback to the early 2000s! That pop idol final was great, Will, Gareth and Darius (RIP) but all great singers

Dear Will Young, I’ve loved you and your voice since ‘discovering’ you on Pop Idol all those years ago. You are blessed with an absolutely unique and amazing voice that sends chills down one’s spine. And so handsome! I wish you ever more success and please don’t stop singing! I’d love to be able to visit one of your next concerts. I’m currently feeling very sad and lonely. Have a Happy Christmas and an exciting new year 2023. God bless you and your orchestra.
Love + hugs, Cris
