Olivia Newton-John Cliff Richard Royal Variety 1995

[voyager597]

True professionals through and through. Made for each other.

[1969milla]

The most beautiful song ever!!! And their voices are perfect for this song... Just love it!!!!

[popboy0]

Olivia Newton-John / Cliff Richard, they're made one for each other. No other voices match this perfect ! They are meant to sing together forever: Don't Move Aways (70's), Suddenly (80's) , Had To Be (90's) , Let It Be Me (00's)......2010's ??????

[MrLoosetruth]

ONJ still my favorite of all time!!!!

[DebGant5]

So lovely. They look and sound terrific together, and their hair matches.

[bondoman2k]

This is such a beautiful song, sung by what (arguably) was the BEST combination of singers ever. Does anyone know what the actual title of this is, and if there are any other versions on YouTube?

[clifffan3]

@bondoman2k

song is called Had to be, its from Cliff's musical Heathcliff

[voyager597]

Brilliant Cliff & Olivia.

[emily2u97]

[pienivla]

Who cares if Cliff is a poof. He can sing, Wouldn't you love to stroke ONJ's hair?

[pienivla]

Anything with ONG wil be beautiful.

[ferraridinoman]

only a million times!!!

[bille1131]

Jesus didn't get married. Does that mean he was gay? Cliff has had more women than most of the people who leave ridiculous comments. Is it jealousy?

[TheMikesMaiden]

the two most beautiful stars in the world SHINE ON ........L.O.V.E

[djmb42]

beautiful performance!

[GreatestSingerEver01]

Beautiful song by two amazing singer/entertainers!

[Tavis444]

What an intricate song...lovely. Olivia looks absolutely stunning! I love the two of them together. And, Cliff Richards is a great guy, but as for the two of them getting married, I thought it was a given that C.R. is gay.

[voyager597]

@Tavis444 Try making your own mind up instead of taking the word of idiots.

[voyager597]

The usual unnecessary comments from a minority of pinheads turning up again, who's interrested in their numb thoughts anyway, don't like Cliff go away and annoy someone else if they will have you, we certainly don't want you.

[myomyomyomy]

Cliff is way over the bloody top as usual, milking it for all it's worth and with those mad stares into the camera !! I can't stand this....cheesy crap !

[2degucitas]

These two NEVER need auto tune!!!!

[DeeBeebs]

A lovely "live" peformance and such clear crisp video ... it onlly adds to what is a brilliant performance... thank you for sharing :-)

[bitbech]

They are a match made in heaven - if not in real life then whien they are singing together as here.

[Jerseygirl082000]

Gives me the Chills ( awesome )

I still think them two should have got married

[Flap999]

Amazing performance. Period.

[justmaz2004]

ages dont matter there quality artists both of them

[ph1lstar]

Sadly both now nearing their twilight years....sigh such is life

[johnny0g]

a very beautiful and touching song.

[Zo3Ang3l]

So good together, true talent indeed.

[sherp2u1]

There is only one King! Thank you very much, your beautiful!

[lovelyonez]

wow they are simply beautiful together

[thebullb22]

wot a pair of legends..... Livvy absolutely incredible as always

[oirak]

My my kiwibelt..its so sad that you could not have said something kind about these very good friends..Livvy would be most upset knowing that one of HER fans could be so nasty to HER Cliffy...wow to Cliff and Livvy soooo good together they enhance each others voices...I once heard her say about Cliff having the kind of voice she likes to sing with...Nice compliment for our Cliff..God bless Cliff and thankyou for the posting

[viclagoon]

It is enchanting among them,always,and forever Livvy and Cliff.

[Gibbland2009]

Beautiful people with beautiful voices.

Perfect performance!!!

[5050pete]

Love this song,very haunting!Love you Olivia

[PopArtster]

beautiful voices indeed. Olivia is so special to me. Her music is timeless as is their duet "Suddenly."

[bitbech]

They sound like a match made in heaven. A lovely couple. Their voices melt together. I love this song so very much. I have always played it a lot. Love HEATHCLIFF. Fantastic. Thanks for sharing it.

[hotbabemich18]

what a beautiful voice.... they are really meant for each other... perfect soulmate ..they may not be married to each other but they have a very deep and special friendship.... i can see they both love each other ...true love and true friendship...makes me sigh over and over wishing and hoping its not yet the end....

[KleverGirl1]

I agree with your comments 100%. One could write a romance novel about them and their singing (sigh) as it would be a runaway best seller. Why didn't he marry her? They could have had wonderful children and to think of the musical talent that would have been inherited. I'm slightly jealous of Olivia. Lucky girl!

[kiwibelt]

I'm a huge Livvy fan but C'MON! She was great but Cliff...some vocal assistance, I believe?!?! Definately a harmony/backingline thru all your vocals, Sir!

[mcfcgodber]

Truely professional performance

[cassidy322]

beautiful song

[mnkylondon]

Oh my god! are you talking about sue Barker! he so so gay! i don't know why he just doesn't come out! the big queen!

[S76N79]

He's not gay, just celibate. sometimes it's easier!  also he had a romance with a tennis player, her name escapes me for some reason - Sue somebody!

[voyager597]

Cliff & Olivia are the complete act, just brilliant voices and understanding of each other's singing. Top people.

[Grifiki]

He had a love once. They called her

Susan Hamshire... . But most of you dont know that. definitly in the USA. Most of you are Brain-dead to anything further than the end of your street. Bon Voyage...

[yogishot]

gay,straight, who cares he still the KING

[LadyClifftastic]

@yogishot: SOOOO TRUE!!!

[Grifiki]

Have you ever seen this guy , try to understand the sex in Elsie Tanner.

But then along came his dream girl.

"just walk on by"...

[GraceGratitude]

1 of tthe BEST DUETS ever sang

[crisp2882]

you are so right.suddenly is also a great duet by these two.there are the best in the business.

[Grifiki]

I am ashamed to watch this. There is no such thing: as a king in my Britain..,.

Unless you mean Harry Webb.

[2katie]

They have always sounded so good together. Lovely to listen to them again.

[sean1012009]

tks for that..gay or straight,who cares,they both sound fab,Olivia rocks

[laratta]

He is gay because he wants to be a "Bachelor Boy?" Whoever called him Gay are foolish. They are both great. You guy are just the type of people who only find something negative to talk about people, because you are insercure, and your life suck.

[maha0921]

I am SO weary of comments from those who don't know Cliff, as to whether he is gay or not. I DO know him, personally. He is not, and never was, gay. Note: I shall not comment on any responses to this post.

[LordoftheTrapdoors]

She is wonderful, sing and looks better than in her early years. He is also very good (His voice remind Michael Crawford)

[54spiritedwill54]

Just perfection, no more to be said.

[gummie1066]

this song's from heathcliff the stage show cliff richard did years ago i had to asked my mum where this song is from coz shes a big cliff richard fan

[crystalwatersonj]

She looks so stunning here. Love this performance.

[nuujackswing]

she appeared like ghost....horrible!

[janehennessy1970]

im sorry if my views dont match up with the ones they were meant to x

[janehennessy1970]

GReat footage of these two. lovrd it x

[pefkisuzi]

Got given the audio cassette of Heathcliff - hated it. Got given the Video of Heathcliff - loved it. Got taken to see Heathcliff - wow!!

But this is something else. There has always been electricity between these two. Good friendship does that I think.

[dfarmbrough]

Ahhh..isn't she beautiful? And what a surprise when it was revealed to be her? A great song, and one of their best duets.

[K2fb163]

Quality!

[promtaet]

Perfect two professonial

[Froggie247]

Cliff Richard isn't gay. He is a beautiful person. Olivia and him make a beautiful singing pair.

[CornCob6000]

How do you know he isn't gay?

[Froggie247]

a friend who is a huge fan told me. I think she has met him once.

[CornCob6000]

Do you think that Cliff would divulge such personal information to a person whom he has only met once? What an unusual topic to cover with a stranger!

[msymsed]

How do you know he IS?

[CornCob6000]

I don't know he IS, but that was never my point. I was merely pointing out that he could be. The first comment was somebody stating that he isn't gay, I simply asked how they knew.

My personal opinion is that he is gay, as he has always cohabited with other men, as he does now. Obviously, I don't 'know' whether he's gay or not, but if he is I wish he'd be open about it.

[msymsed]

Openness is a personal issue. If he is gay or he isn't gay is none of our business. I don't know why people feel that if a person is gay it is his or her duty to be out there in the open with it. If he or she doesn't want to be, they should not be forced to. (I know you aren't forcing...I am talking about people who feel they have the right to out others.)

[CornCob6000]

Ok.

[K5GH8]

wow huh LOL . chck out my profile for more vids. V

[ilovepepe2]

this is such a lovely song...thanks

[HRW1940]

Beautiful couple! They should have married. What a waste...

[iCipher]

err, hes gay, so that's one reason

[pefkisuzi]

Err no he's not, but she is married. that's one reason.

[janehennessy1970]

what planet are you on. there has always been great chemistry between these two. you would have to be a complete idiot to miss it and thats obviously what you are.

[bigbustyboop]

love the bit on 1 27 were she comes to the stage

[bigbustyboop]

said it once and say it again this couple in the music buisness are the not married couple that should be but to each other wish cliff would gewt a grip and give a life of happiness even greater than he has now and marry her or even someone else

[IainB1511]

Cliff and Livy would have been 10 times bigger than Becks and Posh, and a million times more talented.

[LadyClifftastic]

@IainB1511: Yes indeed!

[emperorsdragon]

@IainB1511 I feel I must comment on your year old post. What talent have either of the Beckhams ???? absolutely zilch. DB was a one trick pony at best and as for VB, her talent could be inscribed on the head of a pin.

Their wealth and success is solely down to the media. The media are a parasite fraternity who need hero's and villians to ponce on. If there is no genuine talent around then create it ! pour spurious acclodes on the untalented, then sell the illusion to an obtuse public

[EarlJohn61]

@emperorsdragon I'm not a fan of Victoria Beckham (AKA Posh Spice) BUT...

I personally think she was the most talented of the spice girls (I know that says more about the others than about Posh, but you get what I mean!)

[itbejess]

@EarlJohn61 How can you say that? In terms of singing talent she was the worse. That was why she never sang solo. Obviously Mel C was the best singer by far. But in terms of becoming a superstar Victoria was the most talented as she has made it as a world famous person and a pretty good fashion designer too

[alisonsdragonfly]

@itbejess are you tone deaf mofo/ haha mel c is shite and of course Oivia sang solo ... many many times you stupid asshole .. Victoria can not sing at all never could never did you fool she was only a product of the machine and her style is shit ....

[itbejess]

@alisonsdragonfly Umm if you read my comment properly I was referring to Victoria Beckham in saying that she can't sing and never sang solo. Of course Olivia sang solo, I wouldn't be watching this video if i didn't think that. I was simply commenting on the Spice Girls. Mel C is currently starring in Blood Brothers on the west end and getting rve reviews so obviously she is the best singer. Please look at which comment I am replying to before you spew out abuse =]

[john111257]

@IainB1511 totally true..a gentleman and a lady

[007lennon]

i used to tell all my australian colleagues & friends that their produce 3 lovely darlings - onj, kylie minogue & nicole kidman...love them all!

[daveleos]

I think alibarthez should get his computer checked out, as this was definitely not mimed.DAVE FROM OZ..

[alibarthez]

wHY ON EARTH WERE 2 WORLD CLASS SINGERS MIMING ON A ROYAL VARIETY SHOW WITH LIVE ORCHESTRA PRESENT....what a cop-out.!!!!

Nothing short of disgaceful really.

[julzy62]

What gave you the impression they were miming?

[WickednUK]

Hiyad- I think they make a nice couple too, but if you saw their videos b4 you'll notice Olivia changed after the hair was bleached out and her career took off. She should have stayed with him. Who knos perhaps they will get together one day.

[WickednUK]

It's as if they are married , even though they are not. if you get what i mean?

[hiyadroogs]

I disagree Wicked. They look as if they STILL love each other!! No married couple has the respect, reverence & adoration for each other as these two do! Ha Ha!

[WickednUK]

Olivia liked him but she was hot to trot for those hot blooded Italian boys. They were probably gave her what for LOL

[Tostig56]

Interesting that an awful lot of musicians when tied down to an opinion say that no matter your opinion on his work, he has a great voice. Besides, he's the only artist to have a number 1 song in every decade from the 50's onwards and he's one of the few performers of his age who actually still looks younger than his age. Plus he and Olivia are a couple who didn't get together through life situations rather than a lack of affection, that's how it seems to me at least.

[WickednUK]

She left him to become a bigger starr. End of storey. big mistake on her part. John Travolta never married her and her Italian hubby cheated. Cliff was loyal.

[jacquesknotter]

I once chatted to cliff at a youth gathering and asked him about his relationships and he said that that Olivia had a special place in his heart

[voyager597]

Just perfection, no more to be said.

[bigbustyboop]

if anyone of these 2 die one is going to be so lost its one of the worlds best uncoupled people such a shame both gorgeous people

[Jonathanmcrf]

that is completly true

[cmbtravelagent]

Omg, Olivia is the best. Thanks for posting. People who talk about the past remember that one proverb. Those without sin cast the first stone. That leaves everybody who posted about her past-LOL. Thanks again for posting.

[trigardener]

IainB1511: I Googled this about the drummer - Brian 'Licorice' Locking is still alive and not the original drummer of the Shadows. That would be Jet Harris (born Terence Harris) is also still around.

[cazziekins]

Jet played GUITAR!!!

[cazziekins]

Go on Wikipedia there were 3 Shadows drummers ... Terry Smart,Tony Meehan and Brian Bennett.

[bille1131]

Just simply Fabulous!

[thedarksideBJ]

Surely one of the beast duets ever, should have been a massive hit, but Olivia has practically been ignored by the British media/airplay for twenty years! Cliff and Olivia's voices match very well on all of their duets, but I hate most of her other duets with other singers who's voices don't compare.

[shishilala]

Newton-John broke up the marriage

of Bruce Welch ~ The Shadows. His wife & young family were devastated. As soon as the marriage was over Newton-John dumped him, WElch had a complete nervous breakdown... he'd lost everything.

Karma was not far away for Olivier, her own husband ran off with their younger prettier nanny.

; )

[robandden]

takes 2 to tango, I am sure Bruce Welch was involved in his marriage break up also.

[shishilala]

True, but the point I was making robandden ; ) Newton-John dumped Welch as soon as he was 'free'

not nice

[cazziekins]

Yes you are right!I have replied to IainB1511for you as well because he has skewed all the facts and that drives me crazy!!!

[thedarksideBJ]

so? Olivia's worth it. I'd do the same!

[IainB1511]

Sorry I think you have this wrong, Olivia was engaged to John Farrar, (Marvin, Welch and Farrar fame). It was on the set of Xanadu that she met her former husband. Cliff had an affair with the original drummer of the Shadows (nickname was Licorace), who commited suicide shortly there after, leaving a young wife and family devastated.

[shishilala]

No IainB - it's fact not rumour

Google it : )

but she got her come-uppance

Karma - it never fails to deliver

; )

I used to really like her but this put me off her, just a bit.

[clifffan2]

thats coming from a big thumb

[cazziekins]

No,ONJ was engaged to BW that's well documented.Cliff didn't have an affair with the wife of Licorice Locking (who played guitar not drums BTW!?)he was rumoured to have had an affair with the wife of Jet Harris who played in the Shadows years before LL.John Farrar is married to ONJ's ex-bandmate Pat Carroll.

[cazziekins]

Oh and LL is still very much alive and performing in concerts!!!

[RF90810]

Olivia and Cliff ... always a class act!

[sasavi19]

se parece mucho a camilo sexto

[izitall]

They are amazing together. I wish they'd do a duet album. I've been looking at Olivia clips, and she is quite incredible. Stunning, always, from teh '60's to now, and she never seems to give an off performance - perfect pitch, tone and feeling every time. Thanks for posting!

[indeednads]

there is no chemistry...hes gay.

what else is she going to do !!!???FROWN!!????

Its a romantic song.

[proteus1962]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR CLIFF!

[melodimen]

It's from Cliff's musical Heathcliff.

Music: John Farrar and Lyric: Tim Rice.

[DaysWatcher]

The chemistry is and has always been wonderful between these two talented people. They've had a beautiful, loving friendship and it comes across every time they sing together.

I admire Cliff Richard and his Christian faith. Olivia Newton John has come through all her difficult life challenges with grace and class, and I wish her the best always.

[Cherstars]

Perfect couple why didn't she marry him?

[Dadak]

i think he prefer the boys, that`s why, no offense in my comment.

[IainB1511]

No Offense taken however you are completely wrong, he has had more than a few female relationship the most infamous was with a British tennis player (yes female)

[ewwwwwww1]

a straight female tennis player? lol

[IainB1511]

It is a pity that you are so bigoted. Yes Sue Baker is straight,

[GottiDaGoodfella]

it's a pity you have such an enormous pompous stick up your ass. No offense.

[tikifabulous]

I love Cliff! This was amazing! And Miss Olivia is simply a GODDESS!

[lizzyodo]

cliff is the best so sweet and sexy

[dfarmbrough]

How beautiful is that woman? And you can see she's totally in love with him too. I remember seeing this and her performance wasn't advertised. She had just recovered from breast cancer and AIUI this was her first performance for ages.

[ladybab]

Sir cliff could sing with anyone and not look out off place brilliant

[Tessietots]

Grrrrr. Im SO jealous! Cliff belongs to me! LOL.. Great video

[werkhond]

The chemistry between these two never lies.......year in year out..........it will always be there... Had to be? . Yep right these two should have been

[indeednads]

Cant be ...Richard is as gay as Christmas.

[Ghostboy507]

takes one to know one

[eleo1991]

cliff in questo video aveva 55 anni, non è possibile!!!!!!!!!!!!!, ne dimostra 30,è stupendo, sono meravigliosi tutti e due, che voci, mio dio,quanto ti amo cliff, non puoi immaginarlo,il mio amore per te non si può quantificare perchè non basterebbe l'universo intero, è infinito!!!!!!!!!!

[silveroracle]

Such a beautiful moving song!

[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.

[Molly5853]

This is so lovely. It's my favourite song from Heathcliff and Cliff and Olivia sing it so beautifully - Cliff's voice is like honey. Cliff looks gorgeous as does Olivia - they make a beautiful couple.

[IainB1511]

Brilliant duet wish Cliff would finally break down and become a Livvy's other part. The love that they have shared has been apparent since she sang back up on his TV variety show in the late 60's. Of course Cliff I will be a jealous as can be, I love loved Livvy as long as you have. This video is going to be played as my fiancee and I share our first dance as husband and wife, unless Livvy proposes to me first :o))

[bmrocks59]

I AGREE, THEY MAKE A WONDERFUL COUPLE.

[christrox]

one of my fave Cliff songs! And a brill duet. He and Olivia make the perfect couple :)

[Cherstars]

PERFECT

[deloufu]

THIS IS REALLY "AWESOME."

[clifffan]

isnt Cliff looking great that that time and afcource Olivia she looks stunning

[xanadu88]

Yes, great entrance, I believe this was really a turning point in her getting back into recording again. She looks radiant.

[rose218]

i love olivia's entrance in this!

[goldenidol]

Totally Hot! Love it! Thanks so much for sharing this. I would play this song all the time in my studio my senior year in college.
