Absolutely fair play to James, he has been a v busy boy since getting back from USA, did anyone record the songs? (I know - hardly worth it! But I would still love to hear!) I bed everyone who went is/was had an excellent time. Sounds like a real good line-up.

Dunno if anyone recorded, they were very good, but the audience was a sea of arms-folded, chav indifference.

I was more pissed off about the connector bus and failing of trains as it added about an hour to my already-long journey! 2 songs though and then he literally mumbled "Merry Christmas" and ran offstage. They were amazing obviously but come on James, why even bother leaving the house?

Duran Duran were there, which was ace. Dara O'Brien was hilarity!!! Gary Barlow was actually brilliant, as was Damien Rice shockingly. Kaisers as ever, great show. Actually, apart from the 2-songs shite I enjoyed it! Sleep now. I'll plan ahead in the event of queueing Take That fans if ever I come across them again. Fucking rabid lot, even by Manics fan standards!

Merry Christmas? Come on James, it's only November. I bet he has his tree up already.

I had sch a good night, James was amazing that voice just blows me away, gutted that he just did 2 songs but he put everything into those 2 songs and looked dead cute as well.
I really enjoyed most of it except thought badly drawn boy was painfully dull. I always forget how much I enjoy Kaisers live and Dara was ace.
Also really shocked & chuffed to see James Corden bigging up Sam McCarthy, He's someone I'm used to seeing in a dingy pub in North London and suddenly there he is playing at brixton, suddenly I can't hate James Corden anymore.

I thought he was a bit of a arse in retrospect. Even if you have your setlist cut (which he probably did seeing as he was third from top of the bill, and even Speech I-can't-speak-properly-let-alone-sing Debelle got three songs) you act like you appreciate people turning-up. Fuck sake, a smile in the general crowd direction would have sufficed. As it was he didn't even look up before he said his four words and left. Davo acknowledged us more than that! His voice was excellent, but he was rude.

Oh well, Gary Barlow (who actually acknowledged his fans turning-up...), Dara O'Brien and Kaisers were fantastic. And who knew James Corden could sing? David Walliams was pretty bad though; I never thought I'd feel sorry for Mark Ronson but he played along as much as he could and no one deserves that. He looked quite distressed. If Walliams had done that to a female performer the police would have been called.

What did Walliams say? "Yo Mark, I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you finish but Steve Albini has produced the best album this year.."

Hm, sounds like JDB wasn't really in the mood for it
