Guy Sebastian performs before the Queen at CHOGM

Singing a self-penned song written for the Opening Ceremony of CHOGM by the QUEEN - Guy Sebastian shows his true Aussie class again!




In attendance at the opening ceremony held in Perth on 28 October 2011, were Queen Elizabeth II, Prime Minister Julia Gillard, the Secretary-General of the Commonwealth and heads of government from all 53 Commonwealth nations.


Her Kind of Guy 


The Queen appears to be a fan of Guy Sebastian and the singer/songwriter is a fan of CHOGM.

The former Australian Idol winner stole the show at yesterday's opening ceremony.  The Herald Sun has learned that Sebastian wrote the song It Starts With Us for the biggest-ever gathering of world leaders in Australia.

"United we stand: we've given our all; be as one; we'll rise to the call," he sang.

Sebastian received enthusiastic applause from the Queen, who had otherwise appeared unemotional through the 90-minute ceremony of speeches, dance and other cultural performances.






















Thanks Jen

Oprah was so impressed with Guy Sebastian she invited him to perform again at her top-secret wrap party

Guy Sebastian performs for Oprah when she hosts a lavish cocktail party at the Sydney Opera House for her 300 US guests flown to Australia by pilot/actor John Travolta her friend.



So impressed was Oprah with Guy that she personally invited him to perform again at an exclusive top-secret wrap party for Oprah’s staff at The Argyle in The Rocks in Sydney, Australia. Oprah was grooving and busting moves with her team and took to the stage afterwards to declare that while Sebastian is big in Australia, pretty soon he was going to be huge in America, too.

BTW today Guy Sebastian has just gone #1 in the Australian ARIA Charts with Who's That Girl - wonderful Christmas Present for him - Oprah sure can pick them!

here is Guy Sebastian's response to Oprah love for him

here is the youtube of Oprah's pick

Guy Sebastian - Australian Philharmonic (POPS) Orchestra performance of Elevator Love

Guy performs with the Australian Philharmonic (‘Pops’) Orchestra, a 60-piece orchestra that included harp, grand piano and a drummer, bass player and guitarist. Not to mention a choir of about forty singers. The orchestra was conducted on this occasion by Gavin Sutherland.

Guy is still a number one Idol, charming and charismatic. His manner onstage was confident, relaxed, happy and self-effacing. He chatted to his audience as if we were in his lounge room or among the congregation at his church. He took us on a journey through his short career and through the various musical influences that shaped him: Nat King Cole, the Beatles, Elvis, the Righteous Brothers and Gospel music.

Billed simply as ‘Guy’, the inaugural winner of Australian Idol Guy Sebastian has built a strong fan base, judging from the turnout at his gig with the Australian Philharmonic Orchestra at Hamer Hall on Saturday. The hall was packed with men, women and children of all ages. A strange setting for a pop idol, but it didn’t put off the fans, who applauded every song loudly, laughed at every joke and ended up giving Guy a standing ovation.

Guy Sebastian

Be Mine LIVE @ The Basement

An original song by the singer/songwriter Guy Sebastian - a mellow jazz number featuring his rich soulful voice.



Lyrics:


Lately, ive been having thoughts on my mind
Better tell you given that solitary time
Its the greatest most humble thing a heart will ever find
Just promise me that you'll be mine


We've been, we've been going out quite a while
And baby, the way you move is quite my style
So let me take this chance
And put my heart out on the line
Im just hoping girl, that you'll be mine


The winds of fate dont often blow our way
So lets chase them while we can, oh yea
Our waves are growing stronger while our hearts are getting younger i think we Can run a lifetime or two


Take this, take this ring i have here for you
And wear it, wear it til both our lives are through
Its the honest, most perfect gift i can gave to you
If you say that you'll agree
Girl if you promise me
I'll give everything i have if you'll, you'll be mine
