Burrows was also joined by The Bluetones' Mark Morriss for three songs, including a run-through of the Britpop band's 1996 hit 'Slight Return' to the delight of the crowd.
Poet Peter Dixon, who wrote the pieces Burrows put to music on his album, also performed two short poems at the event.
The stage in the chapel was decked out with oversize children's alphabet blocks and a cut-out of Donald Duck, while a tin foil moon hung spotlighted above it.

The winners of the 1981 Eurovision Song Contest, British quartette Bucks Fizz were, throughout the early '80s, regarded among the most successful bands of their eRA, chalking up no less than nine Top 20 hits 'tween 1981-1983, including trey chart-toppers, "Qualification Your Mind Up" (their Eurovision winner), "The Land of Make Believe," and "My Camera Never Lies." The band's summate chart record includes 20 Top 40 entries, and it was 1988 ahead Bucks Fizz at long last stopped up marking hits -- not a tough record for a mathematical group that did non regular live earlier the Eurovision Song Contest. Bucks Fizz were the brainchild of the production/writing team of Nicola Martin and Andy Hill, and were formed specifically to perform a sung the duet had written for the contest. Adhering to the two male, two female formula that had proven so successful at the contest in the eld since ABBA's 1974 triumph, the group lined up as Jay Aston, Cheryl Baker, Bobby G, and Mike Nolan and, with Eurovision under their belted ammunition, they were to establish unstoppable. Three further hits during 1981 -- "Piece of the Action," "One of Those Nights," and "Demesne of Make Believe" were attended by an eponymous LP that reached number 14 on the U.K. chart; into 1982, the Are You Ready album went Top Ten, patch "My Camera Never Lies," "At present Those Days Are Gone," and "If You Can't Stand the Heat" maintained the band's singles success.
The Hand Cut album and four-spot strike singles -- "Run for Your Life," "When We Were Young," "London Town," and "Rules of the Game" -- brought the band interchangeable success in 1983. But slowly diminishing chart positions were root to show. The last deuce 45s ailing at numbers pool 34 and 57, severally, patch tied a Christmas Greatest Hits album only when reached number 25. Bucks Fizz appeared to be zippy back, however, as summer 1984's "Talking in Your Sleep" at least marched into the Top 20. But two further underperformers, "Golden Days" and "I Hear Talk," saw the band's headliner worsen at one time over again, patch a road chance event in brief ahead Christmas left wing Nolan ill injured and necessitated the cancellation of the group's stream tour. Worse was to come, as Jay Aston deceased in 1985; he was replaced by Shelley Preston and Bucks Fizz continued scoring minor hits -- interspersed by the periodic major one (1986's "Unexampled Beginning" reached number octet) until 1988's "Heart of Stone" at long last ended their chart career.
Since that time, Bucks Fizz have remained a going concern, although never-ending lineup changes make seen some 15 or so different singers pass through the ranks, including previous Dollar frontman David Van Day. Of the founding members, Baker foreswear in 1993 and Nolan in 1986, departure Bobby G alone to link the current incarnation to its yesteryear. Nolan and Van Day later formed their possess version of the band, Bucks Fizz featuring Mike Nolan. They released several singles, and as well re-recorded a turn of old hits for diverse compilations. Nolan later left this ring, only Van Day continued on as Bucks Fizz and, following several highly publicised effectual tussles with Bobby G, now tours as David Van Day's Bucks Fizz Show. In 2004, the mid-'80s card of Baker, Nolan, Bobby G, and Preston re-formed for a handful of shows around the tone ending of the band's The Ultimate Anthology collection; iI years later, following the coming into court of the Lost Masters rarities album, another reunion saw the quaternion original members (plus Preston) reconvene to record a version of the Proclaimers' "500 Miles" for the Comic Relief polemonium van-bruntiae.
