Songs of Praise + Ramin Karimloo!!

I have had such an amazing evening. I went to the BBC Songs of Praise recording tonight. Obviously Aled Jones was there, and he was such a nice, friendly, and funny man.
Colm Wilkinson and Ramin Karimloo
For me, the best surprise was that Ramin Karimloo was there, and because we got there really early, I was sitting right at the front, less than 10ft away from him! His voice sounded so perfect, I was awestruck for most of his singing (I also will swear till the day I die, he looked at me at the end of his song, Constant Angel).
He also sung 'Bring him Home' which was such a treat. I think I was melting in my seat.
I think what I have realised is that people in the limelight are normal people. I realised that I was saying that all those famous people 'were actually quite nice!' is doing them a bit of a dis-service. Just like everyday people, there are some knobs, but most are lovely people with kind hearts. We should not have this perception that famous people are arrogant and nasty. We should just take them for as they are in person. Unfortunately I couldn't get any pictures with any of them, which is sad, but I understand that they weren't going to hang around, just so people could get a photo with them. I wouldn't.
I'm going to be glad when it is Friday, as I have had recordings yesterday and today, and a concert I'm in tomorrow evening. I'll be glad for a quiet Friday in!
But until then, here's to being busy! x
