A politically-charged wonderland: Glastonbury 2017 was memorable for all the right reasons
Nothing else compares
Chic 'Good Times'
Chic, Pyramid Stage, Sunday
It's the final day, you've not got much energy left to give and, let's face it, you're feeling pretty emotionally tender. The tonic for that? A hit-filled set from one of the greatest disco groups in history beneath glorious sunshine. Chic, now billed as Chic featuring Nile Rodgers, followed another disco-era hero in Barry Gibb, so Sunday afternoon was all about pushing through with a much-welcomed dose of nostalgia. Rodgers and co's set including 'Le Freak', 'Good Times' and 'We Are Family' was met above-the-head claps and singalongs, but it was Rodgers' speech before performing Daft Punk collaboration 'Get Lucky' that really hit the spot. Reflecting on being told he was suffering from an aggressive form of cancer in 2011, he triumphantly announced how he's feeling like the "luckiest man in the world tonight" now he's free of the disease. Those final-day tears very nearly started streaming out. DT
