Paolo Nutini plays Live Earth in London

Paolo Nutini has performed in the afternoon sun at Live Earth today (July 7).

The Scottish singer took to the stage at Wembley Stadium following a link-up with organiser and former US Vice President Al Gore, who spoke via the big screens from America.

The singer then took the stage, rattling through a selection of his songs from debut album ’These Streets’, plus a cover of Lois Armstrong’s ’What A Wonderful World’, which Nutini asked the crowd to sing-a-long with declaring, “I love this song!”.

He followed that with his own ‘Jenny Don’t Be Hasty’, briefly quoting Franz Ferdinand’s ’Take Me Out’ in the intro.

Paolo Nutini played:

‘Alloway Grove’
‘Last Request’
‘What A Wonderful World’
‘Jenny Don’t Be Hasty’


Live Earth continues in London with Black Eyed Peas on next, and performances coming from Bloc Party, Metallica and Madonna among others.

Stay tuned to NME.COM for reports live from Wembley Stadium all day.
