Diamond's Doubts Over Live Concert Comeback

The Sweet Caroline hitmaker performed at the BBC Radio Theatre in London on Saturday (30Oct10) as part of an upcoming TV special which will air on 13 November (10).

And the singer admits he had big doubts about agreeing to document his concert comeback for TV - because it had been so long since his last show.

He says, "I was scared... This was a live concert on BBC Radio, and, in two weeks, it goes live all over Britain. I hadn't performed in two years. You put your other hat on, you become a normal human being. So I was nervous."

But he quickly rediscovered the old Diamond magic: "The audience was right there and they made me feel like it was going to be OK. All the nerves went away."
