I've just seen it (thanks to Jayd
) a few days ago.
I have to say this is the best tv programme I've seen him doing probably since AI in 06. Here he could really show off what he is: a singer and an entertainer. Appearances in childrens shows and republican political talk shows are good to keep him in the public focus, but dont really do anything for his image as an artist. (they even make him look dated in some way)
This show did, in a great way.
Another thing that might be underestimated:
This was probably the biggest appearance for Pearl as an artist in her own right (sort of) on tv. I can imagine quite a number of people will now be checking her music out, especially after her rendition of Piece of my Heart. Well done Pearl!
PS: Didnt she drop the band name 'Mother Pearl' years ago?
PPS: do we have any info on the ratings of the show?
