Amazon.co.uk Review
Will Young's latest 'in concert' DVD Live in London finds the former Exeter Uni politics graduate turned original Pop Idol champ and latterday Brit Award winner wooing - rather successfully - the largely female party faithful in the cavernous surroundings of Wembley Arena in December 2004. It's a grand stage for a chap who seems rather like a paragon of old-school British inhibition and no amount of hot 'n' loose sub-Cuban grooving ("Over You"), dance exertion or even an invitation to "Light My Fire" results in the breaking of much sweat from his brow. But you can't help warming to his reluctance. Celebrity for celebrity's sake is - quite possibly - some way down the list on Young's priorities and he's evidently working on his more-than-ample talent. And how refreshing that his musical and dancing entourage - far from being faceless supporting technocrats languishing in the shadows - are utterly and democratically integral to the Will Young live experience. Live in London is also loaded with juicy extras including the videos for "Your Game", "Leave Right Now" and "Friday's Child", interviews and fly-on-the-wall footage of rehearsals, choreography not to mention fooling around in clown's clothing. --Kevin Maidment

This is a great DVD,for anyone who loves Will Young.
It offers all of the songs on his Winter Arena Tour.And it also has plenty of behind the scenes footage, and interviews, which are well worth watching. And the concert itself is brilliant, complete with dancers, and fantastic backdrops!!!
The Tour was indeed Will at his best, and gave him a chance to shine,at what he does so well-sing!!
For people who haven't seen him live, this really is an eye opener. It shows just how much he has grown as an artist, and how much he enjoys singing.
And for those who have been to see him,this DVD is a must have, as it will bring back many happy memories of a great tour!!

Will has never sounded (or looked) better!
On this live DVD he sings a whole range of numbers, including the clear, heart wrenching notes of Very Kind and new song Save Yourself.
There are also plenty of up tempo numbers such as a cover of Earth, Wind and Fire's In The Stone and a Cuban version of his own song Over You, accompanied by brilliant moves by Will and his backing dancers!
There are plenty of extras on the DVD, including behind the scenes footage and an insight into the making of some of Will's previous videos.
This should keep fans of Will occupied until his summer gigs in July!

This DVD is a must buy for any Will Young fan or enthusiast. For anyone lucky enough to get tickets to the winter 2004 tour you will no what a great show Will put on and can relive those memories....and for those not lucky enough here is your chance! Will has developed far and beyond his pop idol days and it is now fair to say he has established himself as a respectable artist in his own right. Not only can you see all of Will's best tracks you also have lots of added extras you can enjoy, BUY NOW!
