Anyone ever heard the song A Little in Love?  ;D  ;) Or Suddenly? (Which was a duet with Olivia Newton-John)

Actually, I never have, but I do own one called "We Don't Talk Anymore" on a compilation. Just discovered recently, but it's a really fun, catchy song. Say a mix of an upbeat Christopher Cross song, new wave, and maybe something Survivor would do. Yeah, interesting mix, but it works. :)

It's from '79, but sounds very "80's" to me.

I think he was way more popular in England - I have a couple other online friends from there who say he's still basically a household name there. He has another hit from around the same time called "Wired for Sound" which I think is huge.

I just about remember it, probably know it when I hear it.

both are good songs  :)

First off, it's Cliff Richard...there is no 's' in his name...

Very good songs both...if memory serves, 'Suddenly' was from the film 'Xanadu' which was slammed by the critics...

He's popular almost everywhere (especially in mainland Europe) - America was the big hurdle for him, he eventually reached the top ten there in 1976...

I say 'eventually', as his first record release was in 1958...!! Since then, he's charted over 100 times in Britain...

He's had a British #1 record in five decades (50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s) which is an achievement never likely to be beaten...

So yes...quite a popular bloke...!!

Yep. 'A little in love' is quite a nice song. Wired for sound is . . . alright to be diplomatic, lol.  ;D

Sir Cliff Richard has had an incredible career over here. He's a bit of an English legend now, lol.

My mum loves him, but he's not really my cup of tea.  One or two songs sort of stick in your mind though.  Probably my favourite is the one he did with the Young Ones cast "Livin' Doll"

I recently got the 'Livin' doll' video from VH1 Classics - absolutely brilliant!  ;D

"Hey kids. It doesn't matter what you are. Skins, rastas, punks . . . Keith Chegwin even."  ;D

I love the song Suddenly.

Very good songs both...if memory serves, 'Suddenly' was from the film 'Xanadu' which was slammed by the critics...

i always liked the song suddenly.  also loved the movie xanadu - being a big onj fan. 

I believe his first "Hit" here in America was Devil Woman from 1976. I've always liked his stuff..."A Little In Love" from 1981 is another good one :)

I like all of his songs that have been mentioned so far.  Another good one to add to the list is "Dreaming" (1981-ish)...it was featured in the movie Endless Love.  :)

During his teen idol years in the 50's and 60's, Cliff Richard only had two US Top 40 hits with "Living Doll" and "It's All in the Game"

Here in Canada, he had a whole handful of Top 40's in the 50's and 60's.  I believe "Summer Holiday" was his biggest hit here. 

This will probably sound weird but wasn't he supposed to be a life long virgin?

That is what I have heard too.

When I first heard that I though of the Cliff Roberts- the old MCI guy. I wonder if it was on purpose or he unlucky in love

One website describes him as Asexual, probably the not interested kind.

On tv tonight, PBS was running a membership drive and were airing Cliff Richard The World Tour. My first exposure to him was the duets with Olivia Newton John on Xanadu. Watching him tonight made me realize what an awesome talented performer he is. He was great and he loves to pay homage to performers/musicans that have paved the way and been inspiration as he did with the Everly Brothers and Elvis. It was most excellent and I'm sorry i didn't appreciate him in the last 4-5 decades  8)

Suddenly is a really good song.
