Happy 40th birthday to Lily Allen, born in Hammersmith, London on this day in 1985. With a little help from her friends she found the light in the tunnel at the end.
SMILE!
Don’t quite know how I missed this one (it IS on French TV!?!) but this live version from Lily of her cover version of Keane's 'Somewhere Only We Know' from her album Sheezus is just beautiful, at once strong and vulnerable and also as she is always delightfully honest! We loved (love?) Lily and I was turned onto her work by my daughter around the time her first music broke but I had been a fan of her Dad for years a truly great and fascinating and slightly daunting actor who developed a niche spot quite unique in British acting . . . . . . (we like her Mum too!)
Lily Allen performs live 'Somewhere Only We Know' from her album "Sheezus" The artist gave a wonderful live performance on the set of the TV show "Le Grand Journal" on CANAL+. Check out the full show of "Le Grand Journal" on http://canalplus.fr/legrandjournal
with added Marion Cotillard ( 'Midnight in Paris’ ) moved to tears I think
