I presume it was just fitting. Golden Jubilee - Goldfinger, and Diamond Jubilee- Diamonds are forever. Each time just one song that fitted to the event perfectly. She looked wonderful. It seems she had problems with the high notes, but maybe thats just because it was an outdoor event where the sound is not as good as in the RAH for example (there she hit the high notes in the refrain absolutely properly last year in March, but seemed to have problems in June at the Barry Memorial event. I just wonder if her range concerning the verse "They'll lustre on" is situation-dependant and she was not in good form one day or if she is simply not capable of hitting the note properly anymore.
