The upbeat tone then changed as the lights turned blue along with the music. When looking around, it seemed as though the crowds eyes were magnetised to James as his voice bounced of the walls and sank into there ears. They were stunned by the emotion in his voice and so was I. At this point, even for people who were attending the concern not knowing who he was, definitely recognised the talent in this man and how impressive his vocal range is, this was initially shown in the song “Recovery”.
However, I would say the most impressive song of the show was “Roses” not only for the pure emotion in the song itself but for how the audience reacted, holding up their torches and filling the hydro with what looked like stars in the midnight sky. Rose petals then proceeded to fall from the ceiling like a waterfall silencing the audience. James Arthur's many talents continued to shine following this as in the song “Sermon” he raps making the entire audience bounce to the beat, including the seated audience which rose to their feet.
What happened next was like a step back in time to James's days to when he appeared on X-Factor. He invited the support act “Ella Henderson” who also appeared on the X-Factor to stage to perform a duet.
