Cliff used to be great

I used to be a huge fan of Sir Cliff Richard. Unfortunately I have to say 'used to'. As I watched his performance today on the show 'Loose Women', I had to shake my head.

Cliff undoubtedly has one of the most amazing voices in the world. He has the capability to sing songs that get inside your head and heart and they remain there, like little drops of gold you won't ever forget. He was amazing, he was a legend. A true star in it's original meaning and not the sort of stars that are born out of the X-Factor shows. True talent is what he has. An amazing gift to captivate people.

He's somehow decided to call it quits - or put in other words make no effort to be great anymore. I can't help wondering what happened. Naturally some people won't ever like this guy. His music is just not the sort that they appreciate. I, however, was a massive fan. I had the DVD'S, the CD's, the books, the posters. All of it.
He grabbed hold of my heart with his voice and he has had a firm hold of it ever since. My mum used to be worried I'd never date cos I was so in love with Cliff! He's still got a good grip on my heart but in a more mature way. That's why it absolutely breaks my heart to see what is happening.

He was a rocker! I really hope that behind the correctness, the fancy Ascot outfit, the royal butt-licking and the new horrific idea of doing only cover songs, there is still good old Cliff that I so adore. He's so wonderful, has such a gift.

Go on Cliff, come back. I miss you.

Clip from 'Loose women' aired today:



I know Cliff's supporters are stone cold in their defense of him and I have felt
the wrath for sure - but in all honesty you have to accept the fact that just a few years
ago Cliff would have never sung out of tune and felt okay about it. He'd also not
duet with anyone who couldn't hold a tune.

It's sad. I hoped so much he would end on TOP like he so deserves.
