Speaking about performing at the event, Minogue said: "I'm honoured to be invited to perform at The Diamond Jubilee Concert.
"To share the stage in front of Buckingham Palace with music legends including Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Tom Jones and Elton John in celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee is very exciting."

Further acts previously confirmed to play the concert include Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, Madness, Cliff Richard, Shirley Bassey and Annie Lennox.
The public have until 11.59pm on March 2 to register for tickets, with a ballot determining who wins pairs of free passes.

I would't call that an "orchestral" version at all. Just happens to have a large string section! Still better than 90% of other songs around at the moment though ;-) What a cracking song; and singer!

I wonder if HRH has already decided on her "loo break" artist? Mine would be Annie Lennox... "Philip, One is off for a pee"...
