Will to
party just like Beckham
WILL
YOUNG reckons he is music’s answer to DAVID BECKHAM – and plans to lift the
nation just like the England skipper.
The Pop
Idol agrees with Becks’ rallying cry of “Let’s party” and said: “This
weekend is going to be the biggest knees-up in history.”
Will is
on the bill for Monday’s Golden Jubilee concert at Buckingham Palace and is
determined to make sure things go off with a bang.
The country
is already on a high after Goldenballs Beckham announced he is fit to play
against Sweden in the World Cup tomorrow.
And
Will, who is a dead cert to notch up his second No1 single tomorrow with his
cover of Light My Fire, plans to add to the party spirit the following day.
Phoning
from pre-concert rehearsals, he told me: “Beckham’s right. This is going to
be a great weekend and people should definitely get involved.
“There
is already a feeling of excitement around the country with the World Cup starting
and I hope to add to that.”
Will is
just as nervous about performing in front of his music heroes as he is of
shaking hands with royalty.
He said:
“I walked into rehearsals and there was Phil Collins with his drum kit. You
can’t ask for more than that.
“I am
very excited but I’m also very nervous – more than I have ever been before.
“It’s
amazing to think that this time last year I was doing my university exams and
now I’m singing in front of millions of people, not to mention the Queen.
“Although
I’ve not got any revision to do, I’ve still got to remember my lines.
“The
Royal Family are great and we should all get into the spirit of things this
long weekend.”
