I never tire of hearing this song and Alexander Armstrong gave a lovely performance in this great concert.

What a wonderful surprise and a great tribute by Alexander to Noel Coward who wrote this amazing song. Bravo!

What a wonderful surprise! His voice is fab!

Really enjoyed his performance - A man of many talents - great!

Never heard him sing before although watched countless episodes of Pointless. He really is very good.

Fantastic. What a talented man he is.

a FANTASTIC singer..love everything he sings....

What a great surprise to see another side to his great talent.

Julie Hale he was on a celebrity song contest a year or two back where this side was shown - he did very well. 'Heather' from Eastenders, 'Alicia' (?) from Emmerdale and others were on it. I think I read recently he's about to launch an album - maybe of classicals???

maz59 Julie Hale Yes, it's going to be a classical album celebrating British song. Due out in November, I believe.

Julie Hale . He's an amazing break dancer, no end to his talents

Great song beautifully rendered.

What a talented chap he is, whether it's acting, presenting or singing. So many people bemoan the lack of real talent nowadays. There's plenty of very talented performers out there, you've just got to search them out. There's more to entertainment than TV talent shows.

re played this so many times, love it

Until today, I didn't know Alexander Armstrong is a singer. He has a successful all-round entertainment career then!

Surely the spirit of the composer of this famous old WW2 song was floating unseen at this memorable event.

Amazing! Well done, Xander!

wow - well sung.

A really nice voice. Easy to listen to.

Makes you proud to be a citizen of the UK and we must give thanks to all those that died for us

Well done Alexander.u and Sir Christopher Lee would make a great duo.

I love this song and Alexander Armstrong sings it well.x

I loooove his voice

❤❤

A great singer and a very underrated singer like the late and great Edward Woodward

I totally agree with Julie Hale, Zander Armstrong is an amazing talent

Geoff Walsh he's just perfect 😍😍😍😍

u wouldnt think of the voice come out of him wen u see him

He sounds so different singing than when I see him as a Pointless host. What a deep voice!

I really love Xander's voice.

Alive One. Your singing of "Run" was amazing.

jennifer green when did Xander sing that

I was there on that day. It was a day I'll never forget. For one i like xander and his singing, also being a crazy pointless fan.

What a nice baritone voice

I was fully convinced he was just going to drink a pint of London Pride on the scenario. This is fine as well

Big selling single in the Central African Republic apparently

I'm rather excited about a new CD Alexander has coming out nearer the end of the year - but I’m praying he sings more classical as he has a great baritone voice, rather than the usual ‘cross-over’ singing most talented singers choose nowadays. Anyone know which songs are going to be on it? Amazon tells you nothing but the release date... Thanks

I like this guy a lot...presenter/comedian etc. This sounds ok but Classic FM played 'Summertime' from his No1 Album...sad to say it's a dirge! He sings it way too slow...and yes I know it's not sung particularly fast at any time but trust me...it's not good...whoever produced it on the album I feel should have said...''let's up the pace a little here...'' The living certainly 'AIN'T' easy that's for sure!

Too much orchestra. Would be nicer with less accompaniment. Lovely voice.

sorry alex, stick to the day job mate.

So bad. This guy is a poor singer indeed.

@@MrPorkmann What d'you want- grand opera?? Noel Coward wrote & sang this song, perfectly, it is a love song for a city! And this chap sings it, exactly as it should be sung, in the spirit that Coward wrote & sung it! Sung in ANY other way would be a betrayal of the very identity of the song, its intended meaning as almost a soliloquy to a much-loved city!! It is shared with an audience, rather than aimed at them, rather as if we are allowed to evesdrop on his private thoughts & feelings!! The Master himself would, I think, approve of this rendition which captures exactly Coward's own personal feelings about the city that he so loved!!

And, if, Sir, like me, you have personally lived, worked & even loved in London, then this song would resonate with you personally. I also know what it is to love a city, almost as one comes to love a woman!! I lived in Bath for 20 years & loved her, too!! In the Winter, when the streets were cold with melting snow & only the inhabitants were hurrying home after shopping & the beautiful Georgian buildings & Crescents were looking mournful, that was when she was in her curlers & old dressing gown, with no make-up but, in the Spring & Summer, when the balconies were hung with bright flowers, there were concerts in the Park, the Festival, led by Yehudi Menuhin, in the Pump Room, the choirs sang in the Abbey and tourists wandered & wondered, filmed & photographed, THAT was when Bath was in her finest Summer dress, coiffured, elegant with flowers in her hair & smiling!! And that was why I loved her in ALL her moods, both happy & sad!! And I still miss her, even though I've long lived elsewhere for many years!! And that's why Noel Coward's song resonates so deeply within me because I understand how he felt about London!
