You know what is strange? I never didn't know Liam, I never met Liam, he wasn't even my favourite singer (though he was up there). Yet, still, at least once a week, since he passed, I look at one of these priceless videos and wish he was still with us. What a special man he was.

Look for the High Kings. They are the next generation, carrying on the name and legacey.

RIP LIam, I've listened to your music for over 50 years. You will be sorely missed. God Bless you

The punkfish is right. In fact, they are probably here already, but maturing. We are remembering the fruits of Liam's nearly 60 years of exoerience. In 1960, he sang a good rousing song, as a sound journeyman. By the noughties, he was a master, who got inside a song and made it his own story. His own legtacy is eternal. His heirs have yet to grow into their legacy, but they will. God bless you Liam; rest in peace.

You can see in this performance that he's well aware "the strong rope of death" is twining about his neck. Less than two years later he was gone... "While this heart, once so gay, will be cold... " A good reminder.

@tillyireland You know what the great thing is though? Someone will. Someone will come along eventually that is up to this standard. The onus is on us to just stick around long enough to see it. I'm 24 and not sure I'll be able to. But that's the beautiful thing about music/the nature and act of performing... Greatness begets greatness.So don't worry... There will be someone to carry the torch. We just gotta find 'em.
