They absolutely KILLED IT at Glastonbury 2023. Amazing

[@genepoole1771]

Best thing I'd seen for a long time.

[@jameshollyoak8230]

I’d love this to be released; the whole set was awesome

[@shortaybrown]

Not only that, let’s see a Blossoms Rick Astley Smiths’s cover tour. 15 or 20 smiths covers and maybe a few other songs. It would sell out completely.

Love to see Blossom and Rick on tour...

[@jamesdavies5266]

Try writing your own songs children

[@christopherweise438]

Even the Beatles did covers......old man.

[@Robinson8491]

Originality is overrated. Better give us the songs we love

[@charliekane135]

They have 4 studio albums The songs are all written by the band, mainly Tom Ogden, he's the one one the right. You've made a bit of a blunder here sunshine 😆

[@jamesdavies5266]
