We thought we\u2019d have a look back at some of the most iconic performances from one of the world\u2019s biggest music festivals!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Elbow \u2013 2017<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that Elbow are much loved on these shores. They have played Other Voices at Electric Picnic, and Dingle as well as the Main Stage at EP, and even the Late Late Show. Their Glastonbury performance, however, was something of a badly kept secret. The Park Stage heaved with one of the largest crowds it had ever seen, as Garvey and co. made memories, even after some publicised technical malfunctions.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes those gigs are the best.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Elbow * One Day Like This * Glastonbury 2017 * The Park Stage * Surprise Set\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/en1wyi6YBhQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>DAVE \u2013 2019<\/h3>\n<p>Dave is arguably the voice of a generation. With Black Lives Matter sweeping the world, Dave is an artist who has been talking about inequalities in UK Society long before and allows us here in Ireland to hold a mirror to our own culture. However, his set in 2019 was famous, not just because of his music \u2013 Alex Mann, the 16-year-old pulled up on stage stole the show when he performed a guest verse during the set. It even landed him a record deal and modeling job with BooHoo!<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Dave (feat. Alex) - Thiago Silva\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/e1vlLJCr9Lo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>U2 \u2013 2011<\/h3>\n<p>U2 made their festival debut in 2011 at Glastonbury, and we\u2019re still waiting for an EP appearance! However, when they took to the stage and owned the festival. Hits from Sunday Bloody Sunday, and Elevation gave us a whistle-stop tour of the three decades of U2. Beautiful Day turned out to be somewhat ironic, given that it was in fact pouring rain. Even still, we won\u2019t forget it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"U2 Live at Glastonbury (HD) - Where The Streets Have No Name\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-h5ednjuboo?start=59&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Katy Perry \u2013 2015<\/h3>\n<p>Katy Perry was up against some stiff scheduling competition when she took to the Pyramid Stage in 2015. Liam Gallagher was on the \u2018Other Stage\u2019 at the same time. A wonderworld of glitz, glamour, and glitter; Perry stole the show with her performance. Running through smash-hits like \u2018Roar\u2019, \u2018Teenage Dream\u2019, and more with the high energy performance that infects any crowd.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Katy Perry - Chained To The Rythm - Live At Glastonbury Festival 2017\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Be6bauF0KUo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Pulp \u2013 1995<\/h3>\n<p>When Sheffield band Pulp took to the stage, the Glastonbury festival wasn\u2019t what it is now, still only becoming the sea of tents you see on TV. Subbing for The Stone Roses, when guitarist John Squire broke his collarbone, Common People was already a stand out hit. Glastonbury in \u201995 helped cement the band in popular consciousness before they won the Mercury Music Prize the following year. Jarvis Cocker\u2019s onstage presence was something else, similar to last year\u2019s Electric Picnic, where he chats to the audience like a lad in the pub.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Pulp - Common People (Glastonbury 1995)\" width=\"525\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ftEyTRNTKN0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The Who \u2013 2015<\/h3>\n<p>The Who have played Glastonbury numerous times through the years, but it\u2019s their 2015 performance that would go down in history. Going through decades of hits from \u201cBaba O\u2019Reilly\u201d to \u201cWho Do You Think You Are\u201d, the band were in fine form as adoring fans crammed the stage.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"The Who - Won&#039;t Get Fooled Again (Glastonbury Festival 2015)\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/m7hvZjjsO28?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Florence + The Machine \u2013 2015<\/h3>\n<p>Originally stepping after the Foo Fighters had to cancel when Dave Grohl broke his leg. This is one of those happy accidents when a festival arguably creates special moments from potential disaster. Welch pirouetted around the stage, showing why her presence as a powerhouse of music is something so special. Using a vocoder to give us otherworldly imaginings of \u201cWhat Kind of Man\u201d and \u201cTimes Like These\u201d. Irish audiences got a taste of this at Electric Picnic, and again at 3Arena last year.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Florence + the Machine - Ship To Wreck (Glastonbury 2015)\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZDXkD4l0ZBE?start=7&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Stevie Wonder\u00a0 -2010<\/h3>\n<p>The absolute legend that is Stevie Wonder, recently wowed audiences in 3Arena, but it was 2010 when he took to the stage at Glastonbury that we\u2019re looking to right now. When he closed the festival, his setlist absolutely rammed itself with classics like; \u2018Uptight (Everything\u2019s Alright)\u2019, \u2018Superstition\u2019, \u2018Sir Duke\u2019, \u2018I Just Called To Say I Love You\u2019 and \u2018For Once In My Life\u2019. The Guardian said, \u201cA Glastonbury headline set featuring so many classics could never go wrong in the hands of this legendary musician,\u201d and we can only agree.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Stevie Wonder @ Glastonbury 2010 - 10. Superstition &amp; Free\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BaaBxnAj_Rg?start=14&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The Killers \u2013 2017\/2004<\/h3>\n<p>The Killers made waves with their first appearance at Glastonbury back in 2007, which was hot on the heels of their rapid rise to stardom. They made a secret comeback in 2017 on the famed John Peel stage, where the Las Vegas indie-rock band packed the place out, delivering classic hits like \u2018Mr. Brightside\u2019 and \u2018Somebody Told Me\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"The Killers - Somebody Told Me (Live Glastonbury 2005)\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZgTyIqTJdYw?start=5&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Metallica 2014<\/h3>\n<p>More than likely a warm-up for their 2019 Slane gig, Metallica did not disappoint. Considering how long the band had been around, these gods of Metal first played Glasto in 2014. The set included \u2018Nothing Else Matters\u2019 and \u2018Enter Sandman\u2019. The band then returned for an encore consisting of Thin Lizzy\u2019s \u2018Whiskey In The Jar\u2019 and their own \u2018Seek And Destroy\u2019, and finally launched dozens of black Metallica-branded weather balloons into the crowd, triggering a giant game of dodgeball between the audience and security guards. Deadly.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Metallica - One at Glastonbury 2014\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4odVTSdSY88?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Paul McCartney \u2013 2004<\/h3>\n<p>Macca took to the stage way back in 2004, but it was decades in the works. The festival had looked for the former-Beatles star for many years before he walked out on stage in front of 120,000 adoring fans. What had been a wet, muddy weekend became sunny and summery as McCartney walked on for a historic set. Classics from \u2018Eleanor Rigby\u2019, \u2018Back in the USSR\u2019, through \u2018Live and let Die\u2019, along with many others and some fireworks in for good measure.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Paul McCartney - Live and Let Die (Live)\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VOqgPrJHheI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Kanye \u2013 2015<\/h3>\n<p>Kanye West is a whirlwind himself, and nobody loves Kanye quite as much as Kanye does. However, he is possibly one of the most culturally relevant artists of our time, regardless of where you stand. When he took to the Pyramid Stage in 2015, solo \u2013 you could sense the energy in the crowd. Kanye did not disappoint. No Church in the Wold and Stronger.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Glastonbury Archive: Anderson .Paak, Skepta, Kanye West and more\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\"
