Howard Keel sings I've Never Been To Me

In 1993 Howard Keel undertook his 'Farewell Tour' of Great Britain. Here he is, appearing on 'Bruce Forsyth's Guest Night' singing something a little more contemporary from his repertoire. Needless to say the following year Howard returned to Great Britain for another series of sell-out concerts.

I don't remember that episode of The generation game.... I wonder how the contestants got on with singing that and how many points did Howard give them....... "Alright my love"

This clip was not from the 'Generation Game', but from a short-lived series of chat shows hosted by Bruce Forsyth on the BBC.

How about Charlene wrecking the county jail, that wouldbe an image! ;-)

[Grendachan]

Actually...the male lyrics were the original ones. The writer changed them to fit a female perspective when they needed a song quickly for Charlene to sing. :3

what a great voice - take a lesson X factor losers!!!

[lizichell2]

Oh fabulous much better than all this dance and bass that is sicked from radio1 today

We saw him in concert on this tour and he was fantastic. Something I'll remember as long as I live. He also sat outside and signed every autograph for a huge queue of people and didn't leave 'tll he'd finished. The guy was a legend. Sadly missed. Why do people have to mock? Pathetic.

An absolute fabulous talent sadly no longer with us. To all those who have posted mocking comments , please take on board Howard was 74 when he appeared on this show and was still a fabulous singer. He came from a generation where you had to have serious ability in order to become a success.He gave us all these wonderful musicals ....boy could he sing and tell a story at the same time.......a joy to watch and a rare talent unlikely to be rivalled !

@Reluctant5 It's not him though, it's the old man / old lady that make love to the preacher man or wreck the county jail.
