A very good afternoon to you DidditmiselfOriginally Posted by Didditmiself
It a 'labour of love,' actually the real task was from another time! A time when we only had casssetes and vinly lp's. I can recall the task of trying to write down lyrics using the play and then pause button and if you didn't quite get it, the rewind button. With mp3, this task is so much easier!
I hold Cliff Richard in high regard because he never used drugs, never promoted the use of drugs, he was never an alcoholic, he was never in the media for the wrong reasons, he never used a vulgar or swear word in any of his songs yet he sold more than 200 million records and he never made a fool of himself in public. He remains a good, clean role model.
His songs by and large were love songs..he made his mark on mankind!!!
"Over a 54-year career, Richard has become a fixture of the British entertainment world, amassing many gold and platinum discs and awards, including three Brit awards and two Ivor Novello awards. He has had more than 130 singles, albums and EPs make the UK Top 20, more than any other artist[7] and holds the record (with Elvis Presley) as the only act to make the UK singles charts in all of its first six decades (1950s–2000s). He has achieved 14 UK No. 1 singles (or 18, depending on the counting methodology) and is the only singer to have had a No. 1 single in the UK in six consecutive decades: the 1950s through to the 2000s (discounting digital downloads and counting only CDs, he had a UK No. 1 single in the 2000s)."[1]
