"An extraordinary experience": Daryl Braithwaite reflects on Harry Styles concert
Daryl Braithwaite has shared what it was like sharing the stage with Harry Styles during his sold-out Australian tour.
The Aussie music icon joined Styles on stage during his final show in Australia, at Sydney's Accor Stadium, where the pair performed a duet of Daryl's 1990 cover of The Horses in front of 70,000 people.
Braithwaite took to Facebook to recount the experience, as he described the performance as "extraordinary".
"This all started in Perth on Monday 20th February, 21 days ago. During that time I have had such an extraordinary experience," he said.
"My thanks to all the people that have passed on such lovely comments to me over that period. Thank you Harry for the great thrill and pleasure that it gave me and your lovely army to sing The Horses with you."
The post prompted an outpouring of love from fans of both Braithwaite and Styles, as many called for the duo to collaborate again.
“Great that Harry got to meet one of Australia’s top music legends,” one fan wrote.
“Still love you Daryl, as I did from when I was 14.”
"I’d love to hear and see the pair of you sitting down with just a guitar singing some sweet tunes," wrote another.
Another fan said, “Such a pleasure to watch you on stage with Harry, such joy you shared and we all felt it, thank you.”
Many noted that in his Sherbet days, Braithwaite was as much a teen icon as Styles is now.
“Daryl, I remember a time when you got the same attention as Harry does,” one fan noted, adding heart-eye emojis.
“If only Harry knew and appreciated that YOU were the heart throb of my teens,” another noted.
