I love Cliffs *very* early hits but anything he did later than the 60's IMO is rubbish

I wouldn't wish harm on the chap, nor put down anyone who does like him (after all, we're each entitled to our opinions), but he really does make me cringe. In my opinion he really is a crappo.
I always remember watching him in an interview a few years ago on some rubbish TV show. They asked him what his sex life was like. He said, 'I don't have sex, I have God'. He was being sickeningly sincere, too.

i was in birmingham yesterday, and he was doing a signing at HMV. Im I wrong in thinking that a devoted christian shouldnt be that sort of thing - buy my latest release to ensure a good first week position and make me richer.
I also think the same about God TVs mission week : please donate £4million for our capital budget so that we can broadcast in more countries. People are giving to the media company, not the religion. But hey, I could be wrong. |

Cliff
Hi everybody.
Just registered so be nice to me. As for Cliffy.... I can't stand him. He's very self-righteous I think. And so very very bland. Remember him singing at Wimbledon a few years ago?? Yuk Yuk Yuk. His 'Wired for Sound' video was an all time (unintentional) comedy classic though. My mum likes him but she is mad.

welcome to the forum Max
cliff put me off when he started dancing with his thumbs in the air and hasn't stopped since surely someone has the guts to whisper in his ear that he looks so un-cool |

I accept that there are a lot of people who do not like Cliff, and of course it is fashionable to knock him so you all follow like sheep, but to wish that he was dead is just mean-spirited. Some of the comments in this thread are a disgrace and only show the posters for what they really are. Feel free to crawl back under the rocks you came from at any time. S. |

Sidekick,
Have to agree with you on that one. Didn't like that comment either. I'm not a fan and never have been but I don't wish he was dead! It's only music for heaven's sake. Cliff is undoubtedly a good entertainer and has a good voice. It would be churlish to suggest otherwise. It's just I don't like his music. It's not my bag. Sorry- each to their own and all that.

To borrow an old joke from 'Viz'...
"They say it's easier to pass a camel through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Well, that's Cliff Richard f*****!" |

and this from the same person who described U2 on another thread as a "failed punk band". At least your comments match your login name. S. |

well I think a lot of you are being a bit harsh , i don't like his music anymore
as I said before only his very early stuff and he makes me cringe when he tries to dance , But he is not in your face all the time like other stars pushing there opinions all the time , he leads a private life , he does no harm to anyone , and a lot of people like him |

Well there are some very poor comments on here. Some of you are just doing "cliff bashing" just to be hip, and think it's a funny thing to do.
Lets look at the evidence, wether you like it or not. 45 years in the business, with an appeal to all ages. One of the pioners of pop music in this country. 250 MILLION PLUS record sales. He might not be to your taste but he is a fantastic entertainer |

Thanks Alex...good to see someone sticking up for Cliff.
As for wishing he was dead instead of someone else thats just plain sick..anyone who agreed with that should be ashamed. I will never understand why so many people have such a downer on Cliff....he is quite well hated it seems...but he is also one of the UK's most loved celebrities as well... and to be honest I cant see what's not to like...fair enough if your not into his music...thats personal choice...but Cliff has never done anything to anyone...he is just an amazingly nice and incredibly talented/successful guy...whats wrong with that? I know a lot of people think Cliff is big headed, and I can see where that comes from...but he's not...in fact he constantly puts himself down when talking about other artists...which I will never understand, because he is one of the best vocalists in the world as far as im concerned. He does sometimes boast a bit about being the most sucessful Solo artist ever from the UK and of course that he is the most sucessful act ever in the UK...but the only reason he does this is because he is so proud..and who wouldn't be? Lets face it as well....not many people (media and general public) will ever bother to praise Cliff so im not suprised Cliff ocassionally mentiuons his achievements...he must get fed up of being brushed aside. At the end of the day.....many many people still enjoy his music (including me) and in fact he has just released a new single and album called "Something goin on" and is his best album in years...a trully fantastic collection...oh yeah look...a single released in October...hmmm...not a Christmas single...in fact Cliff does release new material fairly regularly and the majority of it was not at Christmas...its just that that is the time of year people hear about it because people love to stir So please stop bashing Cliff...because despite what you may think..he is one of the greates and most successful artists of all time and he is still very much loved today. I don't suppse it will ever stop...but in all honesty it doesnt really matter...Cliff has said himself he doesnt care anymore...he will go down in history as an all time great and he has a massive fan base to support him for years to come. Cheers, Craig (20yoa) PS: favourites song include: Saviours day, What car?, devil woman, somethin's goin on and many more.... what car and somethins goin on are on the new album...released October 25th 2004 |

Craig you're only 20 for godsake. Why aren't you into death metal or some other such rubbish? If you like Cliffy at 20 what kind of music are you going to like at my advanced age? (There's always Daniel O'Donnell I suppose..... )
