Wonderful billy, so handsome and talented ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He only had 2 months to live here , RIP Billy Fury 1940 - 1983.
I remember watching 'That'll Be The Day' as a teenager in the late 1970's. David Essex was a good looking guy of course but it was Billy's looks, charisma & voice that made an impression in that movie.
In the days before Google I found it almost impossible to get information about him, living outside of Britain. Thankfully I had on order from the UK the 'History of Rock' magazines which arrived every month. I learn't about his love of ornithology ( I had to look up what that was....lol).
Billy has & always will remain one of my life's favourite artists.
😢😢😢❤ love you Billy gone but never forgotten
He was and will always will be my favourite singer
My mum loved Billy I grew up with all his records, he was so gorgeous and so frail I would have loved to have met him ❤ we have been to his grave several times also to his statue in Liverpool, I'm a born and bread South londoner but I love Liverpool and the people 🇬🇧💞
Thanks,I go past his statue most days and say alright bill and shake his hand, he was great
What a brilliant film. Seen none of that before. Feel I know the man behind the voice much more. Thank you
My parents had a Billy Fury record, "Halfway to Paradise". Thought it one of the best in their 60s collection. I always thought it had a great orchestral intro, then that opening lyric: # "I-ee Want to be your Lov-er, but your friend, etc...". Great intro to the lovely pop ballad that followed. rip Billy ❤
brilliant singer
Thats what you call if life is hard fight it, what a legend.
Loved Billy. A very sad day when he passed away 😔
Utter legend.
My Sister Margaret and Myself (Tony) consider that Billy Fury (Ronald Whycherley) is our forever favourite Singer. We have been to his Grave to pay our respects for giving us so much pleasure listening to him singing our favourite songs. Particularly Maybe Tomorrow.
I loved billy fury and I had the chance to dance with his mum at the ace cafe while once upon a dream was playing great privilege x
Very sad the way he knew he was going to die young, lovely man great talent
R.I.P Billy.🙏❤️
God - what a lovely man
Such a shame he was lost so young
Britain greatest singer no contest ❤
I agree. Different league to anyone else
Legend
Absolutely
Super guy
He sounded quite lonely within himself 😢
Wow! It seems to give the background to why he died early ... just before he did.
Only two months later, in late January 1983, he died of a heart attack.
Very sad
@@lukegodden1529 indeed. I think that Billy was the closest thing that we ever got to rock ‘n’ roll in this country. Last Night was Made for Love and Half Way to Paradise are classics. Well, most of his songs are but those two in particular.
And of course, he was great with David Essex and Ringo Starr in That’ll be the Day.
@@oleggorky906 Yes he was incredible, I stumbled across Billy Fury about 6 years ago when I was 14 and was instantly hooked. One of my personal favourites is One Kiss.
@@lukegodden1529 good on you, Luke. I also started exploring music made before I was even born in my teens as well.
It used to be that kids didn’t listen to their parents music but with the Internet today’s teenagers are more well informed than any other generation in history and they have wider reaching knowledge and taste.
The Internet is one of the best things about the technological age because it’s a 24 hour online ‘Library of Alexandria of culture, with almost everything being preserved for posterity. And for older people it gives them a chance to feel like they have gone back in time. Everyone’s a winner.
If you get the chance, watch That’ll be the Day. It’s a classic piece of British cinema, with a story built around a young star - Jim McClaine - getting started in the music business in a pre Beatles and Stones England.
@@oleggorky906 Agreed it is a very useful tool when used for good... I actually saw that'll be the day 2 years ago, and recently watched play it cool. That'll be the day was on my watchlist for a while, I heard about it a long time ago as another favourite of mine is Buddy Holly so of course the title always used to pop up.
Sadly, he died only a few months later in January 1983.
28th 👍
He looked painfully thin in his later years.
Didn't he go broke and end up living with kenny everttes ex wife who had some palm reading scam going and was supporting Billy's ventures
No. He was ripped off by his Manager and because of this was declared bankrupt. He re recorded his hits again for K Tel to pay off the debt. He then made a comeback of his own to start earning again. He hadn't lived with Lee Everett since the late 60s.
He had a hard abd sad life with his health and was a such decent man. Heartbreaking. If he jived now he would have had a better and longer life. Me ex died with the dmsame condition. What a loss to the world 🙏💖
Loved him as a singer and a man xx🙏
@@margaret1925"If he jived now" 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
