Wednesday 21th, isn't it ?

You're correct FdL, my typo error - It's Wednesday 21st.

Yes, could well be their last Christmas promo - I'll record it if I can but Channel 5 blocked my upload from the Gabby program.

And the fact Libera did not upload it on there Chanel probs mean they couldn't get permission from five

Please try to upload it anyway. The Live with Gabby video may be blocked in the UK, but we can still see it here in the US.

Possibly a file sharing site so fans abroad can watch the interview?????

The last two days, Andrea Bocelli and Alfie Boe have performed at approx 12:20 - closing out the show. It will probably be the same tomorrow for Libera. Bocelli & Boe got their full time allocation to sing the song from start to end, so I hope they treat Libera with the same courtesy. After two recent short offerings, it would be unlucky for 3-in-a-row. I've set the recorder so unless there is a power-cut, whatever they do sing, will be shared.

I just hope its not carol of the bells. Anything else would make a very welcomed change. I just find it quite a repetitive song and i am already tiring slightly of it. Which is unlike the other songs they sing that i can listen to over and over. How Shall I sing is on about 350 plays this year alone.

Yes a new carol would be nice, but I have a feeling it might be Carol of the Bells again. It's popular with the boys as per Simon Lewis interview on Sydenham Radio and although we've been saturated with it a little being 'libera' fans, it's still a song that makes a great first impression for new audiences. They will be going out a to a few million tomorrow morning.

How in the world do you find this stuff?

This will be heard by a few million ??? WOW !!!!
Let it be Carol of The Bells then. Judging by the charts - it seems to be the most liked by the mainstream
AND if I heard correctly- it's the favourite carol as for the boys themselves!

Sorry dani but I think Carol of the Bells is perfect for promoting Libera - it is a high impact song that is very memorable for people new to the group. I'm sure it will be COTB tomorrow and I think it is the right choice of song to promote the group to a wider audience. the ITunes ranking of the song shows its ability to connect to the audience.

For a 1 shot promo, I think it would be a great piece to captivate new fans.

Yes, maybe could become a little tiresome if listened to many many times, but unlikely as its being broadcast on TV. I personally think this song portrays Libera in a more mainstream way and would be more appealing to a wider audience rather than just us purists

Libera are singing Joy to the world

and they mentioned to mispronounce the name yet again
