The Glastonbury 2025 festival saw an exciting force test between two very different performances on Saturday evening. Charli XCX and Neil Young made the head of the other stage and the Pyramid scene, respectively, triggering a debate among fans on the allocation of the slot machine.
Charli XCX ignited the other step with its high energy set, with tubes like 365, von dutch, festival 4 uAnd I love him.
The crowd was unleashed while sipping white wine and splashed in the rain on stage.
In a sincere moment, she expressed her emotions saying: “I know that I am supposed to have a heart of stone, but it is very damn emotion at the moment … Thank you very much, you are cool as fucking. But not as cool as me, slut!”
One of the highlights of Charli’s set was when she selected Gracie Abrams like her Apple girl. “I love you so much, Gracie,” spurts Charli, while Abrams was kissing the camera.
Meanwhile, on the Pyramid scene, Neil Young delivered a powerful performance with its chrome hearts. Although he drew a crowd in particular smaller compared to Charli XCX, his set was well received by fans.
The decision to place Charli XCX on the other scene while Neil Young titled the Pyramid scene aroused controversy among the fans. Many estimated that the popularity and cultural relevance of Charli justified a place on the main scene.
