Think feather boas, furry cowboy hats and watermelon get-ups to commemorate the singer’s trending ear worm – it was indeed Harry’s House at the National Stadium last Friday night. Harry Styles blew us all away once again with his long awaited return, this time solo, during the Love On Tour 2023 concert.
The British sweetheart took the show away with Music for a Sushi Restaurant for starters, one from his latest releases. This was followed by many others like Sign Of The Times and Woman from his 2017 album Harry Styles, Watermelon Sugar from album Fine Line, and lastly, As It Was, Late Night Talking, Keep Driving, Matilda and Satellite from his latest album Harry’s House.
@timeoutsingapore Harry Styles Love on Tour 2023 in Singapore last night at the National Stadium performing Matilda – a song that’s special to him and hopefully to us too ♥️ #harrystyles #loveontour #hslot2023 #hslotsg2023 ♬ original sound - Time Out Singapore
Apart from being a musical treat, the concert was also wholesome at best with a throwback of an oldie but goldie – One Direction’s What Makes You Beautiful – as well as a brief Queen moment with his very own rendition of the late Freddie Mercury’s classic Ay-Oh improvisation. And there’s more – a sudden marriage proposal, a public parade with the LGBTQ+ rainbow flag, and an impromptu Happy Birthday sing-along for a fellow fan also proved there was indeed no lack of (all kinds of) love on the Love On Tour.
Ending it off, Singapore was no exception to the long-running Banana Song ritual, a just-for-laughs ditty that debuted in 2021 when Styles noticed his fans in banana suits. And after several encore teases, an epic closure to the show was served with Kiwi, giving his fans one last thing to scream about that night.
After two and a half hours, I think we can confirm that singer Harry Styles surely knows how to please his Stylers. To quote Kiwi – he drove us a tad crazy, and we were definitely into it.
