I was fortunate to see Tony Christie at The Fiesta (now closed) in Sheffield and it was a night to treasure. Tony has a truly great voice with such power and he sings effortlessly. One of the greats from ye olden days when people recognised and appreciated true talent.
i saw tony at batley variety club1974, he was simply awesome, he got a standing ovation, 30yrs later he got another standing ovation at the longbridge social club birmingham, i am a huge fan, he is up there with the very best ,
Neil sedaka whom I saw In concert in Sheffield in 2006 and was wonderfull wrote the music for this great song. When is he going to perform at Glastonbury?. From Michael from Yorkshire and proud of it.
I spent 2 years of my Air Force career in the UK, you hear this song at least once a week. It was written by Neil Sedaka while he was living in the UK in the 70’s..
OVERJOYED that Tony got invited to Glasto, mind you most of the schoolies and teenyboppers there havent a CLUE who he is🤷🏼♂️ Fair do’s to the fella the ONLY bloke who has ever worn a WHISTLE on stage😳
Weltstar ...............nicht das Pudding Pulver was man heute oft hört ........Musik mit Melodie Höhen und Tiefen und ganz viel Gefühl ..............Danke ............Reinhard Engel
tony was singing in his home town of conisbrough south youkshire last night. big fest to help good courses. still a great bloke and got the crowd pumping..
Conisbrough is my hometown and Tony Christie is one of Conisbrough's most famous sons.I would have loved to have been at the Miner's Welfare ground to see him play in front of a home crowd.His brother Neal taught History at Northcliffe comprehensive when I was there 1981-86.
La mulți ani din partea mea maestre tony christie cântărețul meu preferat care vă ascult toate melodiile dumneavoastră la postul meu preferat de la radio romantic fm muzică nu zgomot, la împlinirea frumoasei vârstei de 77de ani mult noroc sănătate fericire alături de cei dragi dumneavoastră.
Tony Christie is, among other things, an English Schlager singer. This song, written by Neil Sedaka, is a fine example. I attended a concert by one of Germany's top Schlager singers, Michelle, two years ago in Berlin, and Amarillo was the only non German song she sang. Schlager may be typically German but Britain has produced some great Schlager singers: Tony Christie, Ireen Sheer, Roger Whittaker and Ross Anthony.
Hello, as a Canadian who grew up in the 1960's and 1970's I don't recall hearing of Tony. Can anyone give me the in-a-nutshell musical story of Tony? Thanks
His voice hasn't weathered Too well, but with this golden oldie he can still stir a crowd to ecstasy. My fav version of this song was deleted off RUclips; it had Sedaka on piano with Christie billowing this precious jingle. The men may be like chalk and cheese but I think they are more like two cheeses, a soft centred, sensitive Brie melting away underneath the plump, optimistic Amarillo - correction! Mozzarella of course. Sedaka is the candle, Christie is its wick, together they are dynamite. I don't think they realise how well they compliment each other.
I love oldies artists like Tony who didn't make it big here in the US. If you know any others,let me know. I think Kim Wilde's dfather Marty had a few UK hits.
Like your comment great song and no 1 for 7 weeks. Fantastic singer still going strong today. I am always wonderful when he's other classic Las Vegas will be released again . Just listen to it it's a classic ! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
His voice is shot and his power and range have sadly gone. A fine song penned by Neil Sedaka who, despite being 80, still sings like a man half his age in the original keys !

Yes he was a true great his song the avenues and alley ways was a less well known but powerful song
Great singer, Tony Christie, great songs and he's still got it.

i saw tony at batley variety club1974, he was simply awesome, he got a standing ovation, 30yrs later he got another standing ovation at the longbridge social club birmingham, i am a huge fan, he is up there with the very best ,
A great nostalgic song .
Love to see people enjoying themselves xx
Das ist der beste Beweis,daß Musik die Völker verbindet und nicht trennt. Danke Tony 🎼🎶🎩🎩👍
I think it's the most popular song in the history of the world.
It's a great feel good song, that puts a smile on your face.
Except if your a dunfermline fan lol
I love your quote !
That actually is Hey Jude, which is Lennon McCartney, but of course Paul wrote it for John.
It’s up there with sweet Caroline

Peter song revised this song for charity in U.K. Unfortunately Saville was in it so film can’t be shown be shown.
I've seen it not long ago. Includes that pxxxxxx. Disgusting 😢
The BBC have shown it a couple of times, they just crop Saville out
Used to live in Texas! This song makes me want to go back! Thank You So much for this Wonderful song !! TY Mr.Tony Christie
I spent 2 years of my Air Force career in the UK, you hear this song at least once a week. It was written by Neil Sedaka while he was living in the UK in the 70’s..
I wish his song "I did what I did for Maria" would get a revival too. It actually peaked at number 2 back in the seventies.
Thanks dear,+447424408011add me on WhatsApp ok

Aż serce się raduje jak człowiek słyszy, jak kilka tysięcy ludzi śpiewa z piosenkarzem. Tony Christie, wspaniale.

Amazing and beautiful.
A town called Yellow. Only in America.
Still prefer Avenues and Alleyways
Wow party in ibiza but loooong time ago
Written by genius Neil Sedaka

I singed this while I’m walking with my friends to see if there aren’t fake so this song helped me get rid of my fake friends
Ich liebe diese Stimme LG Katharina super schön 😍👍👌
I use to sing this at school
Tony Christie Conisbrough born and bred.A legendary singer and performer.
I was a friend of his younger brother and got to know him quite well. Great voice at the time!
BRILLANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So good to see "Happiness" isn't it just amazing what one song can do.
Hello, as a Canadian who grew up in the 1960's and 1970's I don't recall hearing of Tony. Can anyone give me the in-a-nutshell musical story of Tony?

Sedaka is the candle, Christie is its wick, together they are dynamite. I don't think they realise how well they compliment each other.
McJoli Aus that vid is still up, and i have had the pleasure to see them both live, brilliant.
Hope he keep well
Uh. Hum.
Tony is the man ! 🎉🎉
He actually got a set
Fucking legend

Great song! But a bit arrogant of him to walk off stage about 20 or so seconds before the song had actually finished! Seems a bit up himself!🧐
FABULOUS !
Darren BUGOYNE the moment. I have a look
I love this song
I love oldies artists like Tony who didn't make it big here in the US. If you know any others,let me know. I think Kim Wilde's dfather Marty had a few UK hits.
wow. Martijn. deze is voor jou.
Doesn't sound as good in G. Tony usually sings it in A, brings his superb voice out better. A huge talent.
Winnie Wallace...And that's how you get the crowd going.!!.
Great song by tony
