Shooting star- Cliff Richard(Thunderbirds)

[MiHiVidz]

Only Gerry Anderson could come up with a song that implies dating violence.

[GanjaStuPipesUp]

Normally I like Cliff, but that performances was soooo wooden.

[rocketdawg44]

Cliff had a woody.

[Blahmarrow]

The Hood made 8 accounts and disliked this video each time.

[lumbago12]

Cliff Jnr. Never gonna happen, is it!

[shevdiam5]

so the blonde chick is the one he is talking about? lol

[JamesBigBangUK]

Been ages since i last saw this. It's all kinds of crazy.

[dwarflover63]

I've been without the internet for three months and this is the first video I played when I got back ! Crazy, I know. LOVE IT !

[911TRUTHINATOR]

one of the guitarists looks like Col. Flagg, that cia nut in M.A.S.H.

[Jericholic129]

so many childhood memories...

[Vampiregothmother]

The man on the moon will jump on you?? !!

[lurcherlongdog]

The doll's hair looks more realistic than Cliff's these days.

[M0nz3n]

These dolls are creepy.

[dwarflover63]

I'm watching this way too often and it's taken over my channel. It's so cute but I think the lyrics are a tad threatening and Cliff jr and the drummer (who looks like Conan O'Brien without the pompador) have strangely lifelike eyes. I still want to marry Virgil Tracy and live on Tracy Island !

[ChumbaWumbaStudios]

Cliff Richard doesn't have to worry about the Man on the Moon........he's invincible......

[dwarflover63]

So adorable ! I love it ! Does anyone have the song the band performed in the episode where Lady Penelope and Tin Tin go to the night club in Switzerland?

[jeffrey44]

This contains content from Channel 4? Which bit?

[whatthefuck65656]

my favourite cliff song and no tabs or anything around! :(

[JBofBrisbane]

Actually from the movie "Thunderbirds Are Go". Truly priceless. I'm told that Cliff owed Gerry Anderson a BIIIIIG favour, so...

[kirstibell]

Love this song

[KleverGirl1]

I just love those Thunderbird puppets!

[SuperDude2569]

This is so cool!! It actually looks like him and "The Shadows".

P.S. the drummer looks kinda like Chucky from Childs Play though. lol

[lajmh]

I would have loved to seen them do this one live. Even in puppet form, John is the best looking Shadows.

This movie takes place circa 2063. I'll be 100 years old so we'll find out what really happens.

[DERECHOIUEM]

q buenos videos, mi padre me enseñó a verlos desde chico y ora tenbgo 20 años

[sxsboy879]

he farts to get to the moon lol

[filecabinetwoesprod]

Maybe this meant something else, but it sound likes he's going to have here tortured if she doesn't love him, and he'll stalk her. :P

But still, great tune and GREAT movie! :)

[LWall2000]

Cor blymie! It's the Wankers!

[afabandjon]

omg i remember this im 22 i feel old lol

[homemoviescolorado]

The origin of "Team America" Be sure to look up "Supercar" pronounced "Zupa Cahh"

[keneticshark24]

43 years later and this is still an amazing classic..

[AlexDraco]

Mr. Gerry Anderson, you're a genius...

[leydensjar]

Essentially: "If you leave me I'll get my friends to beat you up."

Different planet, back then.

[crisp2882]

this is so amazing.cliff and the shads as puppets in thunderbirds and using mini versions of their burns guitars awesome

[haraldamsterdam1988]

It's called 'Shooting star"

[ianbillericay]

Cliff Richard junior? When did Cliff have children? or sex even?

[IncomingSanity]

Lol, they didn't know that back then, did they?

[ianbillericay]

Maybe in the future they can clone from DNA

[5te]

@ianbillericay It's a dream sequence set in a strange Jetsons type future. They basically had Cliff playing his own fictional child which they obviously predicted wrongly lol

[TeaCub]

@ianbillericay Oh, it was the sixties, they just presumed. :)

[Gunganbuster]

@ianbillericay He has an army of clones hidden in the Millenium dome and periodically transfers his coincence into a new one. How else doy you think he never seems to get older?

[Eogcloud]

@ianbillericay it's set 100 years in the future....

[dwarflover63]

@ianbillericay Now we know. Apparently he and Lady Penelopee had an affair !

[gijoel]

@ianbillericay Immaculate conception.

[seehispugnosedface]

@ianbillericay cloning?

[astrocitizen]

@ianbillericay -- this series takes place in the future, so Cliff Rihard, Jr... actually, Cliff the 3rd would be mor realistic.

[DarranGange]

@ianbillericay it's set in the future, circa 1966.

[HITTHESKINS]

how good is this. they even got the shads on burns guitar. brilliant

[hilarioph]

What is the number of that episode on thunder birds?

[Akaubear]

It's from the the 1966 movie "Thunderbirds Are Go".

[BlueTerryLily]

you can download this on itunes on the album called cliff richard at the movies

[whammy0000]

This is a really catchy number,the man in the moon will jump on you if you dont love me no moor,lol.

[SergeantSarge]

"The greatest star in the Universe..." :P

[japanboomboom]

I guess back then this song was romantic. Now he sounds like a crazy stalker.  LOL

[54spiritedwill54]

sweeeeet!

[wagsouza]

Strange...............

[beebeeseeone]

I prefer the "I LUDICROUS" - "We're The Support band"

[captainkundalini999]

Was Cliff jnr. a test tube baby.......or a clone.

[Diceydee]

A test tube puppet.

[PrinceGaz]

Definitely the best part of Thunderbirds are Go. I didn't understand that part of the film when I was young, but love it now.

The special-effects are great; the guitar being launched from the planet and Mars exploding at 2:22 were effects George Lucas must have wished he could have matched in Star Wars.

The lyrics are a bit dubious, but I doubt Cliff Richard (Jr) would really be bothered about what a girl does, after all he's a bachelor boy and that's the way he'll stay :p

[Ataru320]

Have to agree. The film felt dull in the first half, but the whole Shadows sequence (let alone the scene after which foreshadowed Captain Scarlet with the monsters on Mars) took the movie.

[sydneycat22]

i saw this film three times in one week when it came to my home town,crazy or what! but it was the 60's!

[cristianccm]

I agree 100% with GeorgeHarrisonLuver

[GeorgeHarrisonLuver]

I love this movie and this escene is one of the best! Thanks for sharing!

[xxholzlvsmcflyxx15]

my mum brought this film for my lil brother and i remember this!! its soooo stupid hehe. the cliff richard puppet is so much better that the real one lol.

[TheRetroDude]

For guitar playing play B7 Db7 F#7 amazing wierd chords sooo coool

[TheRetroDude]

OMFG Cliff Richard Junior KIcks Asss well better than his dad!!!!!!!!

[TheRetroDude]

lmfao at mars blowing up well before the death satr scene LOL

[TheRetroDude]

diggin the guitar lick funky as hell!

[TheRetroDude]

fuckin rockin 60s tune!!! allans dream was it?

[kelseygeorgia]

Which movie is this song from again? The only one I can think of is Thunderbird 6.

[MrsSuratt]

Thunderbirds Are Go! It was the first film. And this is the best scene in it.

[kelseygeorgia]

Thanks! :)))

[jarirusi]

Cliff just came out of closet...Finally after 50 years.

[juliejazz]

Geez...it must have been getting stuffy in that closet.

[earnie1974]

really? what did he confess to?

[MrsSuratt]

He didn't "confess" to anything, although he did confirm that he has a gay male life partner, without actually saying he was his gay male life partner's gay male life partner. If that makes any sense.

[Wehategod]

Hey thats a Marian Faithful Puppet too

[horseridingchick101]

love this song :)

[reknak]

Does anyone know what the title is of the song that they play before this song in the movie? It's instrumental.

[Nedraed]

It's called "Lady Penelope"

[reknak]

Thnx :). The song is by The Shadows only I can't find the song anywhere :(.

[TerrahawkHQ]

Sweet, the guitar at 1:57 is real sized. So that that shows how small the puppets were, yet their personalities were HUGE!

[reknak]

That's exactly what I thought. Nice song in a great film!

[etraig]

@TerrahawkHQ

i've heard the dvd coments,

the puppets were usually 1 third scale.

meaning that a six foot person would be represented by a 2 foot puppet

[lhasti]

@etraig really?

[jigbuilda]

I prefer the puppet Cliff Richard best!

[idaslpdhr]

Gerry and syliva anderson are british, they made childrens programs from the 50's, twizzle, fireball XL5, Stingray, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, Joe 90, Secret service, UFO, Space 1999, they used alot of american actors living in the U.K for the voices, and made it very american to sell to the american T.V companies, very successfully, from your comments, it was sooo big in the U.K in the 60's and then again in the 90's when it was rerun. Most of the puppets (as we call them here) were binned.

[Spizania]

only in britain

[pryorj2011]

What do you mean 'only in Britain'? I thought this was an American show?

[9aspengold5]

This was a British Children's Sci Fi TV Series made in the mid 1960's. Reprised in 2003 then made into a movie starring Humans in 2004. The human version was not a success.

[pryorj2011]

But Gary Anderson and Sylvia Anderson who made it (I think) are American. The live action movie wasn't a great success among fans because they got almost everything wrong and it was a crap script. Good director and actors but everything else sucked. They ruined the Thunderbirds. (Yes I am very protective of my marrionettes and models on string)

[9aspengold5]

Seems we did the same with Godzilla when we (the american's) bought the rights to the Japanese classic character. Do you know if The Thunderbirds (original marrionettes) has been put on DVD??

[pryorj2011]

Yas, because I have them. Even Thunderbird 6 the Movie

[9aspengold5]

thank you. I will look for them.

[pryorj2011]

No problem. They are pretty good and they are digitally restored.

[wingweaver84]

@9aspengold5 If you're referring to the original TV episodes,yes,they're all on DVD,though be warned,the boxset is about $80.I have the set myself.

[konokitsune]

I don't know,I thought the movie was pretty good myself.I didn't like the change in the uniforms or that they chose someone like Ben Kingsley for the Hood,but other than that it was good.

[vinylman4533]

We are the Robots!

[pryorj2011]

Technically then are marrionetts. Their heads are so big because of all the servo mechanisms used to tie the movements in with the audio track.

[TroyaE117]

The drummer was out of time. He got his strings tangled up.

[fawcett2395]

sweeeeet!

[BoriquaLady1209]

its an odd song...,.but i cant stop watching it...hmm so weird

[TheRetroDude]

yeah its got the funky guitar alway through its like outta key alweay through lol. U can tell its at the hight of the swinggin 60s ehhee

[jsaw200]

no,it's keith moon

[Truck111]

Nah, Keith is less wild ;). THat is SO Wayne Rooney.

[Alvinandchipmunks24]

"a shooting star will shoot you!" love it

[stuey8]

Is that Wayne Rooney on Drums?? Lol

[Truck111]

WHen I read your comment, and then saw him, I loled so loud...

[Joshybabez01]

I remember watchin this vid when i was like 4

...... Inspiring

[gonzales120]

is this an actual pop song?

if so where can i find it under

shadows or cliff richard?

[cartledgej]

type in a sentence from the chorus such as 'you don't love me no more'

[ffa14]

Lol!-Cliff Richard & The Shadows in 'Thunderbirds'.It was good backing music for International Rescue but did nothing to halt Cliff's inability to restore the chart successes of yesteryear!.

[tintin20001967]

I wished i could dress like them....I do!

[MikeHoldway]

is that actually ol Stiff Richard on vocals ?

[theredraven]

Yes it is.

[mhirtes12]

Only Gerry Anderson & Cliff Richard could create a love song about making threats to your girlfriend.

[daggereyes1]

Cliff was driving the car for Kim Wild and Billy Idol

[245thegreat]

in this ep.. when alan falls down the gap lmao! XD

[lumbago12]

Cliff "Jnr"?...bit optimistic there, eh?!

[GandSAfan]

Well, it is set in the 2060s.....go figure!

By the way, I DO have this movie and it's AWESOME!! (It's ironic that this movie came out just before Thunderbirds were cancelled during their initial 1960s run!)

[lumbago12]

You mean that he may have deposited er...something of himself in the freezer section back before he joined the celebate club?!

[SnIkl337]

I used to have this movie =D

[PBBlachuu]

thunderbirds are great! :)

[booradley4000ad]

Hilarious! Check the puppets jammin w their guitars!

[alraczkowski]

This reminds me of the Scopitones videos that were popular in the UK & Europe back in the 60's. I think the puppets of Cliff Richards the Shadows have uncanny likenesses to the real folks. Scary indeed!!

[timthejedimaster]

lol! where can i download this song btw!! its awesome! :D and..what a film! hehe

[matt20uk]

Its hard to get hold of the song. But i have it :)

Had to pay for it though.

[timthejedimaster]

where did you buy it from? its a great song! lol. gets stuck in your head likes.

[matt20uk]

i bought i from 7digital, type, shooting star - cliff richard, in the search box :)

[creamofcardstv]

Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some trading cards of 1960's chart topping stars: Cliff Richard, Elvis Presley, Adam Faith, Billy Furry, Frank Sinatra, Lonnie Donegan, and Shirley Bassey.

[BB76USA]

Love this! Thanks for posting it.

[chibimax]

nice

[hbheaven]

Outstanding! And freaky at the same time. How stoned do you have to be to come up with those lyrics?

[Fardenbaum]

Heavens to Betsy !

[spiritslipsaway]

Scary as Hell!!!

[reeve1]

Swingin' :D

[wilfredrandom]

cool and good. this is a good dream scene

[dunetoe]

tune!

[valvehouse]

Yeah!
