A little bit more consideration and empathy is required than has been shown discussing 'It's a sin' topics here, I feel.

We don't want any forum members to feel disrespected or have their enjoyment of the forum spoilt by intolerance. We really don't want to have to wade in, but if more consideration and common sense isn't applied then we might have to.

Please, be respectful of others when posting.


Thank you.

Totally agree but I’m just not convinced that the disrespectful ‘people’ with no empathy have any idea that this applies to them!
If I thought what you’d think I wouldn’t even be here.

This might not be true, as the original article is from the Sun. Olly and Elton are rumoured to be performing at tonight’s Brits, on a rendition of It’s A Sin

The teaser activity on the various official accounts suggests this is happening. Any chance of Neil and Chris taking part as well??

I can imagine Olly singing his ballad version with Elton on the piano... then the massive thunder crash and the screen goes back to reveal Neil and Chris with all their gear, piling into the full track.

If that happens, Elton, PSB, and Olly on the one stage, then it's quite the gay-artists-down-the-years chronology. The interesting thing for me is that they almost embody a journey: Elton - so closeted he married a woman; PSB - quietly subversive; Olly - out and proud. A nice touch.

Let's face it, all three are very much in the limelight right now. This would be a pretty sweet gig if they all make it on.

Bets on what Chris'll wear for a face covering...

These BRITs collaborations sometimes get immediate single release, don’t they?

That’s right. Florence and the Machine and Dizzee Rascal, realised their mashup single You Got the Dirtee Love, the following day. It went straight in the charts at 2
