  • Cliff is a brave man. Brave indeed to name an entire album after a song this awful, and braver still to sing it again. There are few songs in the pop canon that more risibly attempt to make an ageing housewives' favourite singer appear with-it and contemporary.

    Mind you, it was written by BA Robertson, so it was doomed from the start.

  • The thing I most love about Cliff is his endearing sincerity - he really is an example to us all. Don't miss his latest album "Jet Who?" by Harry Webb and the Sunday Christians.

  • Living legende!

  • cliff is one person i wouldnt wanna get tangled up in his webb..

  • this is as gay as george micheal's careless whisper! everyone has to admit the original music video is too flamboyant for a straight man to make! You can almost picture elton dancing to it!

  • @therealgergory I'm gay too and proud of it. any objections? I don't care :D

  • He simply cannot move on stage. Vocally he sounds great but visually his moves are just dreadful.

  • no matter if you like or dislike him he's been making hits since 1958 hit single "Move It" that has to count for something.

    No matter if its tinny and poppy but hey he's a millionaire because of it , must be doing something right

  • This song is full of sexual innuendo in reference to Cliff's sexual preference. Hence the Tall speakers/small speakers comparison implying size doesn't matter and the needle to the plastic is another reference to a sexual activity, even AM/FM is another variation of AC/DC. That's what you have love about Cliff's music. All those hidden messages that reveal a little more about him. Awesome Cliff.

  • @rmtdrums but he never wrote the song ?

  • @panzermort I know, Thats even more of a reason why it's a great song. Robertson & Tarney were taking a huge risk giving this to Cliff but he grasped it with both hands (pardon the pun) knowing it could raise questions directed to Cliff. If only songs these days had so much depth.

  • youtube.com/watch?v=83YjrnvXGO­0

  • @quango24 cliff done over Drum and Bass Stylee

  • Comment removed

  • At 4:03 you can hear the soul of this man

  • @thecity42 No, I don't think the sound came from his ah soul, I believe it was just a squeak from his shoes...

  • Better than Elvis, and still alive

  • Comment removed

  • @soesie1972 I agree!! It was most unprofessional of Elvis to have allowed 33 years of death & decomposition to diminish his talent & art on stage, & allow Cliff to catch up.

    I know he wasn't mentioned in the same breath as Elvis when he was alive, but Cliff is becoming known in places as far reaching as the Isle of Wight now!

  • @hiyadroogs brilliant

  • he is obviously a flaming homsexual, but i kinda like this track

  • he should of put hes skates on . you go cliff

  • lol.. but where are the roller skates?

  • 11 decades?????

    LOL....He may be old, but thats 110 years!

  • @3889eric mmm someone needs to check the math on that , I think he came out in the 60's I MAKE THAT 8 DECADES........

  • @ricturtle I'm afraid you are wrong Sir/Madam. Cliff has NEVER come out to date. He prefers to leave his sexuality to speculation. It's a smart move; Ambiguity & androgeny helps increase his fan base from both ends of the public washroom.

    If XX is female, & XY is male, then Cliff must surely be YYY Delilah...

  • @hiyadroogs WTF are you babbling on about. being single does not make you Gay and not being married does not make you gay. He denies it categorically in his book.

  • @ricturtle 'I think he came 'out' in the 60's' - is sometimes used as a euphemism for homosexuality. It was just a silly play on words on my part. Don't take things so seriously!

    I never said that Cliff was gay, but that he was playing a very clever media game but NOT clearing up the speculation, which he could do very easily if he wanted.

  • @ricturtle It is a common known fact within the music industry that Cliff had a relationship with Freedie Mercury and also Kenny Everett. As with Freddie his sexuality was always kept underwraps from the paying public fearing that it would have a negative effect on the bands popularity. The same with Cliff.

  • the great thing about Cliff is that despite a career spanning 11 decades he always refused to learn how to dance like a human being... what a pro

  • amazing

  • @ChocolateExplosion lmao 11 decades haha

    60 decades I admit is unbelievable

    look at the age of the guy though ffs  i be lucky to walk that age

  • @ChocolateExplosion 11 decades?!? Let me see. He was born in 1940, but I'm pretty sure he didn't chart until 1958. So lets count them together shall we? The 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's 10's. I count 7 decades.

    If his career spanned 11 decades from the 1950's he'd be over 140 years old, or if his career had spanned 11 decades, he must have been born in 1900.

  • @schellwardee

    I suspect that ChocolateExplosion was being sarcastic....just a hunch.....

  • @andrew1984uk you might be right, but considering the rest of the post was reasonably factual, I'm not entirely convinced that he is.

  • I love cliff richard

  • I wonder if the guitarist wearing the cap is Ian Bairnson, he played with the Alan Parsons Project

  • Cliff fact 6339: Cliff isnt wearing any shoes during this performance. He's wearing his favourite brand of white sports socks, Goalflash!

  • I doubt that guitarist need a shower after each performance.

  • people clapping at 4/4.. must be a german audience xD

  • Cliff fact 6334: Cliff loves to tip small animals into his own private volcano and watch them melt!

  • Cliff fact 1411: Cliff's real name is Biff Bofferson!

  • What a dumb ass song.

  • WOW he's sure still got moves on at 53 years old!

  • Cliff fact 1465: Cliff despises the over 60's. Unlucky Cliff fans!

  • He obviously despises the young and old alike, judging by the SHIT he inflicts on the eardrums on a regular basis.

  • Indeed. In a recent interview, Cliff stated "I think of my mouth as a giant poo-spout, ejaculating filth into the innocent ears of the nation. I hate all my fans equally, except the ones that smell like wee and have tartan blankets over their knees. Which is most of them".

    What a character!

  • yeah, that was amost funny

  • Glad you liked it!

    Cheers!

  • this man speaks the truth

  • NOT CLIFF RICHARD (hes a dick

  • I WAS worried there.

  • Comment removed

  • 2:17

    cliff slips on the bile he releases everytime he sings his 'music of dynamite'

  • Notice how Cliff's backing singers are all facing each other. That's so Cliff can gawp at their arses each time he slithers past!

  • Where's the mosh-pit?

  • The idea was mentioned. But after taking into account the age range of Cliff's fans. It was decided that Zimmer-frames, mobility carts and wheelchairs crashing into each other would be against health and safety. Also they didn't want them pissing all over the floor when things got a bit too rowdy.

  • sounds like Leeds festival

  • Oh Gay, is all I can say

  • What do you call a man with a seagull on his head?

  • Cliff fact 761: During a live concert, Cliff once stunned fans by pulling down his trousers and bearing his arse cheeks to the crowd while yelling "Cop for these!". It is believed that three women died and 480 spontaneously shit themselves!

  • Why don't all you haters go fuck off and rant somewhere else.. If you don't like Cliff Richard I don't get why you're watching this in the first place.

  • Nobody HATES Cliff...

    But if they were to rant anywhere else on Youtube they'd be told to go rant on Cliff's page. So, you know...

  • Because its good to laugh.

  • I think the human race has to accept some of the blame in allowing this sort of thing to be inflicted on us for the last half a century. ..

  • Cliff's guitarist John Clark previously played on the Bruford albums 'The Bruford Tapes' & Gradually going tornado'.The true touch he once had has been ruined by this musical sham & no doubt his blind faith in religion? put the final nail in the coffin.If your religious or not a musician then don't waste my time posting a defensive comment. Go watch the Zeitgeist movie pt 1 and look at the myth of religion for yourself.If you look for the truth then 'Question' the reality behind it.

  • bad sound quality. I have found the music video for this song with cliff richard and that music video is awesome. I totally love the 80's. I love 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989.

    I love the years 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987 and 1988 the most when it comes to the 80's i love 80's po music and all almost every pop video made in the 8's The sound of almost every pop song in the 80's is great but som epop songs from the 80's is just bad and some even sucks, but the 80's rocks!

  • I've just had to go for a lie down after reading this.

  • Cliff fact 1215: Cliff once sweated so much during a live concert he nearly drowned the front row. I belive they enjoyed every breathless minute of it.

  • the smoke seen at 0:29 to cliffs left is the result of a member of the audience spontaniously combusting.

  • Cliff fact 16: Cliff once wired his genitals to an electrical socket to see what happened "Burnt pubes is what I got" he confirmed.

  • he's sweating due to having run straight back from auditions for a remake of randall and hopkirk deceased,he didn't get the part as they only wanted someone to act dead, and not as close to death as cliff is in this awful offering.

  • shit those moves are rampantly gay

  • Why didnt Cliff use a bit of the old botox to paralyse his sweat glands for this concert. The sweaty old swiveller!

  • just proves that gobbling on the old spam javelin ain't good for the vocal cords

  • Oh dear,oh dear! He's certainly lost the octaves since the original version!

  • Though sadly not his voice completely!

  • LOL!

  • That first bit of dancing Cliff does looks like he's got an invisible pole stuck up his arse and Cliff is just spinning on it.

    Unlikely I know but it also answers a lot of questions!

  • This is one of the worst things ever. It's nearly worse than the holocaust!

  • @twattertwitter don't compare , if you don't know what you talk about, are you a survivor of the holocaust? Were you even born in 1981 , when this song was out! I was 9 , and I loved it than and still do.

  • @soesie1972 We are ALL survivors of the holocaust. Each and every one of us.

  • Comment removed

  • @bloobear1 How dare you use such revolting language to address me, you ugly, insignificant person. 

  • @twattertwitter hahah you loon :)

  • I wouldn't want people laughing at my poor dancing ability. It wouldn't be so bad but his songs are bloody awful too. He should stick to something he's good at. Ive heard he's very good with colours!

  • And a very, very good listener, particularly to the ladies!

  • Im not a great cliff fan, although he almost does have the right to dance like a complete twat. He is sir Cliff after all!

  • Is Cliff deliberately humourous. Every video I see him in he looks an absolute joke!

  • This is utter rubbish. I love watching it though due to the embarrassment factor.

  • yeh,its like watching your dad dance at a wedding.

  • True, true. :)

  • GO

    Cliff!!!!!!!!

  • fuckin mint i dunno wot you miserable bastards are moaning about if you dont like it dont type the address to watch it then bad mouth!!!

    arsewipes!!!

  • Steve Martin did the same dance in "The Jerk" at 1:20

  • OH CLIFF!....sometimes it must be difficult not to feel AS IF...you REALLY ARE A CLIFF!...when fascists keep trying to PUSH YOU OVER IT!....are they the lemmings?....OR ARE YOU CLIFF?.....OR ARE YOU CLIFF?

  • I dont know what it is but when I see Cliff dancing it always sends a shiver up my spine. I also feel really light headed, totally repulsed and retch constantly.

    You've still got the magic Sir Cliff!!!

  • God bless Cliff. Gay icon.

  • come one, one of the world biggest twat.

  • It didnt work.

  • You only put that to piss Faye off.

  • Yeah, who cares what he thinks about speakers. I like Penny Farthings but you dont see me writing a bloody song about them. Shape up Richard!!!

    And while you're at it, sort you're bloody dancing out. You look like a cat with a firework up its arse!

  • I like willies and I don't write songs about them!

  • If I was Cliff and I saw myself doing this, I'd cut my Cliff off!

  • what is so bad he thinks he is good.

  • Only an alien would think this shite was good.

  • Does he honestly think that "dancing" at start is good.  Its absolutley embarrassing. If I ever caught myself doing that I'd amputate the offending limbs immediately!!!

  • I heard Morrissey is covering this on a b-side, to be released in the none-too-distant future. It's true. I read it in The Telegraph.

  • Dazvinci STOP NOW leave Sir Cliff alone the man is a living legend LONG LIVE KING CLIFF PURE GENIUS

  • cliff at wimbledon part 2,moves me. radnorave22

  • what an arse

  • whats more upsetting is that he has agood band here

  • barro boy are you watching this complete cunt

  • cliff fffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuucc­ccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­ ooooooooooooffffffffffffffff

  • ooo oooo ooo ooo sorry mate i love you really forever wired ooo ooo you twat

  • cliff die you bastard ooo oooo o

  • cliff i sue you for brain damage with this shite. butyou think you are good.never again spoil wimbledon with your shite singing you had the chance why did you not anal sue barker

  • cliff shut the fuck up you are shite

  • cliff is wired. but he needs hius mouth wireing for this bollocks

  • wired?...weird.

  • such a pretentious person.he is either laughing at us or more scarey he thinks he has talent. always wired barro man

  • I love the part at 4:54. Cos it's finished and I'm watching something else.

  • LOL, I couldn't agree more with Ya, twittertwatter!! I personally would rather watch paint dry than this!!

  • Well paint does have the advantage of not dancing so poorly!!!

  • Also, paint doesn't automatically sicken people every time it sings.

  • At 4:08 you can see why Cliff Richard is a pure singer that was very soulful at 4:08

  • This is utterly embarrassing.

  • This guy has one sexy ass voice!!!!! He has sexy teeth too...oh yeah, I said sexy teeth!

  • Open your mouth when you sing, Cliff. You look like a bleedin' turtle.

  • I love all of Sir Cliff's brilliant records, but I always feel a bit embarrassed for him when he's dancing at the start of this video. Does anybody else find it a bit embarrassing?

  • ooo....a few million others i think.

  • Im not a major Cliff fan but this guy has been selling records constantly for over 50 years, which makes him one of the most consistent and successful performers of all time. You can't knock that. Good on him, I say.

  • I heard the guitarist who Cliff stands in the middle of the stage wore that cap so he wouldnt be recognised. He also wanted to wear a balaclava, sunglasses and a dress but he never had time to get changed into them all!!!

  • When Cliff dances over to him, watch the guitarist's lips closely. You can see him saying "Get. Away. Now".

  • HAHAHA

  • Funny

  • It's mainly jizzups.

  • Infact, I reckon that the blond women with centre parting in the orchestra between 01:07-08 (top left hand corner of the screen) is having a bit of a giggle! And the backing singers too(especially the one on the left of the three) are also looking a little embarrassed by it all (just as Cliff walks away from them between 02:06-0:10)..but then again...Cliffs made a success of his life...and I'm just laying here making comments like a sad geek!!

  • Make that two sad geeks! I'm not a millionaire singer, but Cliff is a really embarrassing guy. I read once that a lot of his backing singers ask to be fitted mith latex masks, so they cannot be recognised.

  • How do the backing singers and musicians stop themselves from cracking up with laughter when they have to hear and sing along to these lyrics?...some kind of drug maybe?...must be.

  • undisputed even (with an 'i' not an 'e' )...whoops :-)

  • The undesputed king of cheese.

  • *shoots face*

  • Casette in my pocket and Im gonna use it-stereo

    Power from the needle to the plastic

    A.m.-f.m. I feel so ecstatic now

    oh yeah!!!!!

  • He's a sweaty sod isnt he. What an entertainer though. I haven't seen moves like that for nigh on 60 years. Probably

  • Yes, he is rather sweaty.

  • 3.38?

  • I love it when he says 'stereo' and points to both ears to illustrate what stereo is. Thank you, Cliff.

  • Not a cliff fan but this song is great! He is gay but who cares?!

  • he isn't gay

  • He is Gay but that's not the point. Does it really matter in the year 2007?

  • "I like small people, I like tall people, who gives a shit we're wired for sound"

    Cliff Richard is great.

  • I believe this was his last hit to briefly hit the airways. I would like to go back to the days where you would occasionaly hear "Devil Woman".

  • what a tune, absolute anthem. if you disagree your an uncultured fud. mon th cliff.

  • Will someone please upload the original video? The ultimate advert for bad taste

  • no'one can tell me he is a good entertainer. Who really likes him? He rips of religious prays and turns them into pitiful "Records" He should be deeply ashamed of himself for poisoning us for so long.

  • So he made one religious song and a couple of xmas tunes (not loads like people think)that you don't like but that doesn't alter the fact that he still fills arenas and has been entertaining us all for half a century.You are obviously in the minority so get over it!You didn't say why you were watching Cliff vids in the first place,i avoid stuff that i dislike as much as you obviously do this,makes no sense at all,nor does commenting on it!

  • Adolf Hitler filled beiiger stadiums than cliff...does that make him good? Im commenting becuase its morons like you who keep him making shitty records. You should be deeply ashamed of yourself for liking a man who makes a mockery from religion, ifs its only 1 song or not. I wont be replying to anythiong else so dont bother replying

  • Thank god neither will i you need help mate!

  • who cares if its a year on. you got raped

  • (((( TUMBLE WEED ))))

  • gotta be better than listening to the original "boring religious songs" least we can laugh at it.

  • Frankly, you homophobic morons / dyslexic twats can all shut up. I hate Christians, but will happily acknowledge that this song, whilst being ultra-cheesy, is classic '80s power pop - and probably the only half-decent song that Cliff has done since the '60s. Think I'm wrong? Go and listen to some Tim Westwood and make believe that you're tough.

  • LMAO! God - pop music was so sad..wait, hang on.. It still is..

  • Thank you... I enjoyed the video.

  • lmao!!

  • Why are you watchin this then?Moron!

  • ......

  • Wish sum 1 would upload the original video I have never laughed so much in my life!

  • wot a load of shite

  • inno

  • AHHHHH! That is scary shit.

  • i like baseball

  • i like small speakers

  • I Like Tall Speakers ,,

  • class i like all speakers to.

  • This is so good I want to jism on his face.
