extremely excited. A man has run past our tree house in a chicken

outfit heading towards the stage. He was look heading towards the

stage. What are you looking forward to this year? Band of Skulls who I

have been following live quite a lot. The Black Keys will be

phenomenal. Sunday's line up is exceedingly good. There's a band

called Of Monsters and Men. We looking forward to how they go down.

That's it, hopefully if you didn't make it to Reading, hopefully we'll

bring you enough live music to fill your boots and also enough acoustic

performances here, something a bit different, special, getting bands

up here and doing stripped back versions of their songs. We've been

told that they're nearly ready. think about 20 seconds.

# How a casual hour can pull

# All this world to pieces

# Give it to the bunny and see if she kicks

# Yeah, give it to the puppy and see if he sticks

# Then give it to the wonderful, wonderful me

# I'll let you know when I get back just how it is

# With all the other boys and girls

# Yeah, the whole other world

# And the way it stirs inside

# And the why it never burns at night

# And the way they make the climb

# And the why they never pray for time

# And the way I show surprise

# I've been living so long with my pictures of you

# That I almost believe that the pictures are

# All I can feel

# Remembering you

# Standing quiet in the rain

# As I ran to your heart to be near

# And we kissed as the sky fell in

# Holding you close

# How I always held close in your fear

# Remembering you

# Running soft through the night

# You were bigger and brighter and whiter than snow

# And screamed at the make-believe

# Screamed at the sky

# You were always so lost in the dark

# All my pictures of you

# Looking so long at these pictures of you

# But I never hold on to your heart

# Looking so long for the words to be true

# But always just breaking apart

# My pictures of you

# That I ever wanted more

# Than to feel you deep in my heart

# There was nothing in the world

# That I ever wanted more

# Than to never feel the breaking apart

What a wonderful moment, live at the Reading Festival, Friday I'm in

love, perfect. They're at Leeds tomorrow, so it won't make sense.

That will be brilliant. The set so far is spectacular in. A moment we

have to take a short break. But we will pick up later on, exactly

where we left off. You won't miss any of The Cure's set. EastEnders

is a tradition on BBC Three. We can't miss that. Nothing stops for

EastEnders. Nothing, not even The Cure. We'll be back. Loads of

people are enjoying this. Sarah says, "I couldn't make it to

redding this year. I'm hanging it out at home. TV as loud as it can
