An excellent cover of one of my favorite Cochran songs. Well done

Saw Billy perform this at the Top of The Pops 15th aniversary concert.

He stole the show even though he was terribly weak looking.

Little were we too know he was as ill as he was. A real trooper and sadly missed. Rock on in Heaven Billy, they have you now.

Superb posting

I'm forever hearing negative comments about JB, well all I can say now is well done you for what you did for that lad.

I'll watch your back from those crap comments from here on in.

JB your a credit to the youth of today.

Thanks for posting

@GBeret83

A little insider info. The Horse had a wind problem. He was diagnosed with a collapsed pallet that caused him distress and prevented him breathing when in full flow. The Morny and Mill Reef were not his true form. He underwent a treatment for the problem which prevented him returning f...

Perhaps if you took time to read the abuse thrown at me and others prior, you would understand the reply I gave.

This person was making a mockery of a good clip and had nothing good to say.

I have no regrets and nipped his comments in the bud, as you can see no further filthy lan...

Great song, try singing it in the car with the windows down on full blast. Can life get any better!!!!!!!!

@iLikePeanutButter9 Don is singing the deeper notes, he's the one with the darker hair,

Excellent and always great to watch.

Makes me smile just to think of this clip.

Thanks.

How can you leave out High Noon !!!!!!!!

Outstanding singer !!

I caught him live back in about 1980 and he was fab then.

RIP Billy.

Much more up tempo than Dions. Marty was quality and had by far the best version

How is it that The Kings Speech was not even nominated for the International film award. Is this something to do with the old 800 years of rule by the british? By leaving this film out you have lost all credibility and are just a mickey mouse award ceremony with a sectarian vision. You may say t...

@MarioFan124 We are talking about 6 year olds here.

They do not know how to give a beating or even punch hard. The child in question was a bully to others in his class having prevciously punched another child. This teacher has potentially stopped this bully in his tracks and hopefully he has lear...

@sleedolfine15

I too was taught in a catholic school and was subject to punishments such as the cane or slipper.

The one thing I learnt from these was not to do it again.

I am not an advocate of beatings, dont get me wrong !

Beatings do not work ! but corporal punishment does and is usually a m...

great interview, but why did everyone think Rock n roll was on its way out?

In Fairness , its never died!!

Makes the whole body tingle. Possibly the most beautiful composition of all time.

Elvis also sang a version of it in the film GI Blues as the song Tonight is so right for love.

Did you finish basic english in school as your spelling is awful.

Brilliant presenter who is looking very much like Russel Crowe. What diet you been on Ricky, I could do with some of that. Great once again

Are you sure you're not elvis' love child with a voice like that. Rock on

Brilliant song and a cover version (well almost). The songwriters took the classic German song of Barcarolle from the Tales of Hoffman and updated it to suit Rock n roll. Now you can see classical music and rock n roll aint too far away from each other. Try listening to the origional even if you ...

I dont know what Tornadoes these are but they are not the same as those of Telstar fame. This is more psychodelic and probably west coast america circa late 60s.

The origional and better known group comprised of members such as Clem Cattini on drums and Heinz (just like eddie) on guitar. Not a ba...

Great song..........More jump jive than rock n roll, probably cause rock n roll didnt officially kick off until a year later with Rock around the clock.

If you have the copy of ''a song for europe'' where he runs through all the previous winners culminating in ding dong ding dong you will piss yourself. Possibly the funniest song ever.

I remember David Hamilton playing a version of euro songs by star turn and cracking up on the radio . Does anyone have ding dong ding dong.

Always reminds me of the fairground and espescially the wurltzer.

Go Cliff....................The greatest British rock and roll singer of all time.

I think Elvis performed it in Jailhouse rock. Cliff richard also gave it a good shot in 58
