As with all things - from what you like with your chips to what colour to wear with pink - music is a matter of taste.

Hot Rod wears it well as the greatest Glastonbury showman

I'd rather embroider my ears shut then listen to any individual or band that take to any stage, any year, at Glastonbury.

I would not cross the road to see Pulp, have never heard of most of them, let alone listened to them.

Except the 'Legends' spot. I have screamed belters with Shirley Bassey, shouted 'That don't impress me much' with Shania Twain and cursed Ruby and Lucille with Kenny Rogers.

I would cross the Rubicon with Julius Caesar to see Sir Rod Stewart sing one song, let alone a 75-minute set which, by his standards, was short by at least 15 minutes.

Grabbing the hairbrush, I switched on BBC One on Sunday, stood in front of my TV and from the first sound of bagpipes to the closing nautical salute, I sang-along to every number and embraced every single, glorious second of Sir Rod's hit-filled set.
