[TheWraith]

[skycladwow]

I go on the ferry at least 2 times a week. The young person who i lookn after has autism, he loves it.

[TheWraith]

it always reminds me of days out with my grandad

[Fairmont4ever]

Thanks. I downloaded a version of Holly singing this off I-Tunes but unfortunately it wasn't this version. I'll keep looking. Great video, I must say. I watch it over and over again.

[HywieBach]

various artists did it. It was re-released for the hillsborough disaster April 15 1989. Hope this helps begood.x

[HywieBach]

Quite a few artists. Re-released for the Hillsborough Disaster 1989. Hope this helps.

[heartthatmatters]

Very nice!

[everton777]

Nice vid. One question though - did you manage to see the sign on the quayside as you exited the ferry? "Welcome to Liverpool - the dogshit and broken glass capital of Europe".

[TheWraith]

LOL

[dimmeken]

Great song!!

Flemish greetings Dimitri

[DineshDe]

"This particular tribute version of Ferry Cross The Mersey was sung by a collection of stars which include artistes like Holly Johnson."

[stretch260579]

this version of the song was released in 1989 just after the Hillsborough Disaster to help raise funds for everyone that suffered and for the families of the 96 who never came home.

You'll Never Walk Alone

The fight for justice goes on

[TheWraith]

me singing back in 1998 (that comment was in refrence to) "lenticel" asking if i was the guy who sang the "La La" song on a diffrent video on youtube :)

[lenticel]

Loved this although do you all mean the three stops: Liverpool, Woodside and Seacombe?!!.....100's of blurred Scoucers nice touch.

[TheWraith]

lol it is Woodside in'it LOL, woodchurch was the old ferry : /

yip thats the 3 stops we mean :)

[lenticel]

Alright fella just had to ask by the way is this your work too;Fooockin Kirby La La (kirby smackhead)I relise it's quite old but made me laugh!-you're right fuckin smack heads are everywhere.

[TheWraith]

yip lol that was me singing back in 1998

i think it was 98, may of been 99, defo old though : /

and their still breeding like rats lol

[AndrewHawke]

Ah, Tuesday - it was freakin' cold and windy and that's some great footage you shot there. Does that ferry stop at woodvale or seacombe nowadays? I thought they banned the saveaways from it too. Is that the Hillsborough tribute CD? I though I recognised Holly Johnsons's voice. Makes a great pop video, and nice touch at the end, with the old pictures. It's a winner. ;)

[TheWraith]

cheers dude, im not sure who sings it, it was named weird lol, its cool how you can see the new staduim still not fully finished :)

it stops at all 3, does liverpool then seacomb and woodchurch (woodvale, flying ferries :P LOL)

some poor old dude fell over & it was held up waiting for ambulance, wonder if hes ok : /

[AndrewHawke]

Ah, that's right, I remember now. heh heh. Yeah, woodvale is where the air cadets go flying in the chipmunks. The last time I went on that ferry - around '96, instead of going directly across, I got took on a "guided tour" of the whole Liverpool Bay area - a freakin' hour just to travel 4/5 of one mile!

[TheWraith]

yip they do some mad tour from time to time & if ye jump on the wrong ferry ye stuck on it LOL

its such a shame they painted them

[TheWraith]

also saveway's, what you do is get an "all zones" then go to the ferry tickett office & show them it and they just give you a ticket, cos it does 3 stops (not A to B) you could basicly stay on it all day anyway if you just bought a ticket lol

[TheWraith]

yip :D

it needed more pans of the ferry (but due to the amount of people i had to keep faces of the cam)

i was prity suprised at just how packed it was

did you see the end of the credits ?

starring 100's blur'd scousers LOL

also could of been a bit more steady with the cam but it was megga windy :'(

shame the beatles never did a cover of this

[HywieBach]

It's a blessing The Beatles never covered it.

[HywieBach]

Really like the video though. Love the song. great cover.
