Your right Rez, Party might not've flew, it's just a whole lot more momentum in the song. In looking at Lewis's performance, it's as if Lewis & his bass player 'threw up a wall or partition' and didn't know how to come from behind it. The perfomance was cold and mechanical. Somewhere in Lewis's mind he might've mistakenly thought to himself that he is Lewis Taylor, a genuis, and won't have anything to prove on front of a national tv audience, just go & check his vanglorious catoluge, right? WRONG.

I agree that Lewis doesn't have Jay's Kays charismatic, gregarious nature. Had that've been Jay Kay & Zender up there, they would've showed their behinds off & said to hell with how they might've been percieved, but would opted to enjoy themselves irregardless. Then again, you can't compare Jay & Zender, as they are both extroverted dynamic personalities, so that's kinda unfair.

Brittish people are naturally mannerly & well behaved, imho, like those english school boys that have to wear those solidarity uniforms and behave themselves, but then you have exceptions like Jay Kay & Robbie Williams.
