Following epic sets from Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and plenty more, the country queen had Worthy Farm in the palm of her hand as she delighted a crowd of thousands with all her hits.
Alas, viewers still had complaints, taking to social media to slam the sound quality as Shania, 58, powered through the technical challenges.

She now has a ‘very different’ and much more ‘raspy’ voice, but she’s ‘happy’ to have it back.
