[CardiffGirl28]

Amazing Tribute, really. Is this "Joy Division" acctually?

It fits so perfect, and it was his favourite band...

I hope so much, you're doing well...stay beautiful...forever...

[jesuswithapiano]

I cry every time i see this. Especially in the end clip.

[DeepSouthDepression]

[czanita]

This is probably the best tribute I've ever seen. Well thought-out, I loved the contrast of the smiling pictures and the ones of his 4 REAL scar.

And you couldn't have chosen a better song for the tribute.

Thank you for sharing it!

[RASTADOG123]

He always looks to be in so much pain.

[d9y8l7a6n5]

:56, :57 that look ......swoonfest, and his dancing in the red shirt sooo cute

Amazing, lovely, beautiful tribute

[Laoch111]

Great tribute mishima1970!

I still find it strange that no body or any evidence was recovered (have other people supposedly jumped from the Severn Bridge and never been recovered?). Perhaps Richey is still alive.

The Manic Street Preachers had some awesome songs. My 2 fave would be:

Love's Sweet Exile/Repeat (1991); Motorcycle Emptiness (1992)

[Sophie27987]

When he was dancing around in the red shirt i totally saw Edie Sedgwick, they both have those Bambi eyes.

[ofcoursehesthefarmer]

Guys, I've got a confession to make. I abducted him. I held him captive in my cellar for three years before selling him into slavery. That was the last I saw of him (though I still have his technicolour dream coat - couldn't bring meself to sell it.) Poor Richie.

[YukinaTao]

Joy Division AND Richey Edwards!

man I just say, you made my motherfucking day!!!!

<33333333333

[revol148]

Utterly beautiful - I had simply forgotten that mascara and leopard print coats CAN look good on men as well as women!I remember reading the NME around the time of his disappearance - the letters pages were full of Richey stuff for weeks on end.

[SameKookySelf]

beautiful. fitting tribute. i love this man. i hope he found peace wherever he is.

[Yazzselena]

I can see you put so much effort into that, it was worth it, I've posted this to my facebook as I was so touched.. thank you.. x x

[Scarlettfever1991]

This is so well made, thank you so much for making/uploading. Richey was a beautiful soul.

[RevolTrousers]

Thanks for this- it's been put together very thoughtfully. Especially like the clip right at the end- so touching!! Almost had me bubbling

[selfobsessionhoney]

can't believe i didn't watch this video before now. gorgeous just like the boy himself. i feel so sorry for his poor family more than anything though, so sad. xx

[jennytot86]

One of my biggest regrets in life was never getting to see the manics when richey was still with them

But i was only 8 when he went missing...just wish i was born earlier :(

[MegaSashenka]

Richey I'm waiting 4 ur come back....I'M WAITING FOREVER!!!! MISS YAA, HOPE UR HAPPY!!! XXXX

[NarrowMinded00]

You did a good job, the pictures and fragments taken from all that videos work well together!

:)

[DarKFuhrerHi]

[garnyan]

Thank you for this tribute x

[MrsIncaKlebold]

Awesome tribute and thanks to this video and Richey for letting me know about Joy Division.

Happy Birthday Rich, I hope you're happy wherever you are now. Dead or not you'll be forever in my heart.

[karziflora]

OMG...JD's Atmosphere to a Richey James tribute...Richey & Curtis were gentle/genius/lost souls to create the most beautiful/powerful poetry in music history..and i thank u both for that!!

[TheAmyWire]

Made me cry. He is the most beautiful man to have ever lived.

If he chooses to return I am sure he will recieve an equally beautiful reception.

Here's to the last "Real" tragic poet and musician of our time. He is truly missed by all whom he touched and I hope he is finally happy wherever he is.

Richey, Stay Beautiful. xxx

[karlmarx71]

Troubled genius......I miss him.

[phoenix0929]

What does that say scratched into his arm?

[pathoplastic]

@phoenix0929

4 real

[AmyMuffin]

Lovely tribute,I hope he's happy wherever he is now,it would be so sad if he died,he was so intelligent and beautiful.

[keimzeit88]

great Tribute! Thanks!

Love the drums in this song ...

[hyllaf]

Legend!!!!

[VanityInPerson]

Richey, your beauty blinds.

[RICHEY95MANICSTREET]

Love this touching and sad, yet beautiful tribute to Richey, watched it many times over the past couple of years, one of the best tributes to Richey on YouTube.

Very nicely done.

[MarqueeMoon95]

This was so beautiful. Excellent music choice too - Richey would have liked that.

[tawor]

its a fantastic tribute, congratulation for that perfect work

[Gingey1SmallBrother]

Wow i think this is a really fantastic Tribute.

I've got agreat idea i'll see you soon

[LittleLenin]

fuckin amazing :) love joy divison really love richey and the manics

[Duchy0901]

Hey John,

The part showing his car, was that real or an reenactment?

Talk to you soon,

DianaXX

[manwaring]

I'm sorry, but there don't seem to be alot of positve aspects to Richey's life, which is why his tributes don't seem to have much. The man became one giant walking ball of pain, which is what makes him so awesome and yet tragic.

Also, thanks Mishima1970 for posting all of those Mishima vids, I'd have never bought his books without that.

[j7609]

i disagree, there is a wide range of different things from Richey's life here, not just his pain. there's good things, - Richey dancing around, music video shots, him on the swing, with his dog Snoopy, etc...the problem is ppl (in general) tend to glorify his problems, so it it hard to get around those images, which shoulnd't be denied anyway, but i think this is a well rounded, touching and beautiful tribute. i watch it often when i'm thinking of Richey, which is a lot ;)

[didz83]

Shouldnt a tribue to richey have some of the more influential and positive aspects of the guys life in it? The lyrics, the interviews, the intense live performances, the poetry? This is just a succession of images which portray edwards as a pretty face and set of wounds. Talk of a society of the spectacle. RIP richey edwards.

[Duchy0901]

Thanks for the info, I have to watch this and Ian Curtis Video that you made atleast twice a day cause its soo great and the music you picked for both stars were SPOT ON perfect!

Cheers

[Duchy0901]

I know this song is of Joy Division but whats it called?

Thanks so much for the info.

DiXX

[rosotchenko]

Atmosphere

[Duchy0901]

I still get really sad when I rethink the thought that he mite be dead, but how will we ever know and if he is alive this is sooo wrong to leave his family and friends who care so much for him.. I cant ever understand his pain but I do understand the cutting part and I know why he did it, pain inside feels so much better when theres pain on the out.

I MISS HIM SO MUCH and hope to GOD he is OK!

Great Video A+++++++

[Duchy0901]

wicked video. To the point. I still think Richy is a wanker for what he did, but love him anyway. Cheers.

[Hancox17]

Good work! Attention to detail like the abondened Vauxhall car. Plus great soundtrack. Reminds me of the Peter Hook quote on meeting the Manics "atleast we had a body". The Manics were a brotherhood. Must be terrible for them to have no closure. RIP Richey and Ian.

[SharPeiMuttOwner]

i agree.

[VNevermoreV]

Amazing!Good job

[j7609]

Wow - I was holding back tears while watching this - it's so sad, but very moving. Bless sweet beautiful Richey. I will never forget. Amazing video, thank you for helping keep Richey alive in our hearts!

[LitanyCrash]

This is wonderful. Grazie. =)

[trumbone]

quite beautiful
