Paloma Faith made the Pyramid Stage her own and paid tribute to Amy Winehouse with a ‘Back To Black’ cover at Glastonbury 2024.Faith’s Glastonbury set ran from 13:45 to 14:45 this afternoon (June 30), between performances from Seasick Steve and Shania Twain.Faith began with her cover of Cass Elliott’s ‘Make Your Own Kind of Music’ before saying, “We love you Amy, you’re here in spirit,” and launching into Winehouse’s 2007 hit.After Faith performed ‘Bad Woman’, the second single from her latest album The ‘Glorification of Sadness’, released in February, she gave an emphatic speech in which she dedicated the song to single mums: “I know it’s hard, I’m doing it!” she said, bemoaning that girls are told, “Be a good girl, always behave’, [because] it’s not right.

I’m a bad woman and proud, and I hope that you are gonna raise your daughters to be bad women too.”Throughout her set, it felt like a party atmosphere on stage with a number of backing singers, musicians and dancers all coordinated in black and red outfits as Faith worked her way through her discography, taking festivalgoers on a journey through her trademark soulful, jazzy pop.Paloma Faith covering Back To Black by Amy Winehouse this is huge— didyoujustsaywig (@2002scoobydoo) June 30, 2024paloma singing back to black for amy i’m sobbing that was everything.
