I remember seeing Tony Christie on his first TV appearance (Des O'Connor Show or similar) Great voice and some great singles. Shame he NEVER seemed to credit Neil Sedaka but keeps referring to it as HIS song...
there's no reason to say how you hold european culture. most would take this as an insult even though you may not mean it that way. don't tell people their values and culture are worthless. i'm from dallas, but they've been around a lot longer than our culture.
Tony christie amarillo the Darren Burgoyne on the road for the day but the bike ride today as I am working on my way to London today so will have the hard time off I think they will be a 🎹🙄🚈🏢🏣🎡🕍🕍🚈🕌🚇🚆🌇🚅🌄🚅🚒🎠♨️🏫🚕🚇🏬⛲⛲🏬💈🏣♨️
gersman1962, if u think so, u need to get ur hearing checked out, mate! u don't no when u come across a decent tune, so the bottom line is, go get hearing aids and get it up you!!
Tony Christie could sing any song on a Radio Show every Saturday morning back in the sixties. There were two other singers with Tony - Laura Lee and Danny Street, and you had to phone in requesting your favourite song and one of them would sing it. Brian Matthew was the DJ presenter and the show was Easy Beat. It was everybody's favourite then, and I'm certain most older generation will remember it.
I love Tony Christie singing this song, but my husband doesn't like it, so I can only play it here on RUclips when he is not around. lalalalalala BRILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heliv, you may be right. I've actually written a poem about it if you care to offer your opinions?: What with his wysdom and his chivalrie, He conquered al the regne of femenye, That whilom was ycleped scithia, And weddede the queene ypolita.
You've got to be kidding me!!! Vegas showgirls!!! (I'm from Vegas) Totally detracts from the great execution of the song. Jeez, I'm so tired of these shows that think they have to supplement a great song with such cheezy "eye candy."
OK, 30 years from now, picture some "rap artist" playing one of "their" hits like this. Or name one that you think will still be alive and out of jail in 30 years. Thanks for the post of some real music.
@Wiseayr I am devastated! I trust the city of Amarillo did their best to bring the criminal to justice? I will never visit Amarillo! And will be copying this link to Tony as I am sure he will be totally shocked! RIP Thomas!
lol! My parents were talking to some Brits in Mexico one time, & when they told the Brits they were from Amarillo, they were all like, "You're from Amarillo? Oh my God! What is it like down there?" My parents respnded, "Um...It's dry, windy, & flat with no trees." and the Brits are all like, "What?"
For God's sake, people...its a love song. It happens to be liked all over the globe. Leave whatever politics that drive you out of it and just enjoy the music.
ahh.. it reminds me of the summer in 2007 in Golden Sands in Bulgaria with my x girlfriend. this song was played many times in the karooke places:) the best summer ever :)
Nice to see a singer whose got the balls to sing live - a good voice still too. Good article on the back page of the Daily Telegraph finance section (August 28th) on him - seems like a good chap
I understand he has and he has also been made a Freeman of the City! Thanks to people like me pestering the city of Amarillo to thank this guy for putting a down and out American city on the world map!
WOW not seen this before, just fantastic, thankyou Neil for giving us this great song and our Tony for singing it! If ever you feel down listen and watch and :-D Love Hilary x

How can you not like this guy? Style. Energy. And a voice!
He still sounds very great and professional, considering that this tune is a 1970 - 71 hit.
Live this great classic brings back so many great memories

great version best i've erver heard! what a voice
I f*ckin hate this song, but does anyone know the song he bought out in the late 90's please?
everytime i listen to this song make me feel like i am british!
Amarillo makes you feel British ???
Great listening. But tell us please. How did he make it out of the court yard ?
OMG I remember listening to this on a 45 record when I was little. I'm from Amarillo also and never knew that the song was so well known.
The guy in the audience swinging his arms at the front is great ,fantastic arrangement
Thirty years on, and this guy has not lost any vocal quality whatsoever. Wow!
This takes me back to very happy times in my childhood!
SHA LALA LALA LA LA FALKIRK!!!!!
Can do without the stupid showgirls....
Amarillo is in the state of Texas not New Mexico.
Great voice
i would have loved for Peter Kaye to have run out wicked
I love Tony Christie singing this song, but my husband doesn't like it, so I can only play it here on RUclips when he is not around. lalalalalala BRILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mad song ! Wicked.

@discocreator76
u really think so?!
Every artist wants this.
To make a great comeback after your peak was reached.
So few get this chance. Glad he made it.
Neil Sedaka classic
Yep sorry I know that, is in TX
Heliv, you may be right. I've actually written a poem about it if you care to offer your opinions?:
What with his wysdom and his chivalrie,
He conquered al the regne of femenye,
That whilom was ycleped scithia,
And weddede the queene ypolita.
who is the beautiful lady at the beginning?
Natasha Kaplinsky - former BBC newsreader and first UK Strictly Come Dancing winner.
This is so fucking great:)
...or in Texas, not too far
Thx for posting this.
This guy is a classic, right up there with Petula Clarke!
You've got to be kidding me!!! Vegas showgirls!!! (I'm from Vegas) Totally detracts from the great execution of the song. Jeez, I'm so tired of these shows that think they have to supplement a great song with such cheezy "eye candy."
Lol..My name is Maria.
good old days!... hehehe
OK,
30 years from now, picture some "rap artist" playing one of "their" hits like this.
Or name one that you think will still be alive and out of jail in 30 years.
Thanks for the post of some real music.

Celta - Do you think that Tony Christie needs to be made aware that it will soon be time for his roots to be torn asunder?
Hooray!
Sorry great song
FALKIRK BAIRNS !
Of course a person can have an opinion.I wonder if he met every Euopean or he bases his opinion on having met a few that he didn't take to.
Jay Ashton sings a great version of "Amarillo" in the video response above (when it's approved)
For God's sake, people...its a love song. It happens to be liked all over the globe. Leave whatever politics that drive you out of it and just enjoy the music.
i want showgirls, too. it would be great to have some dancing around here... hmmm...
Well, it says her name in the titles at the end (it's actually the first name listed). She's Natasha Kaplinsky - she used to present BBC News.
Top man Tony, lucky bugger gets to dance with all those showgirls and gets a bit of Natasha as well!
what a legend!
I would beg to disagree!! Quite a few europeans have heard of Amarillo!
see the guy dancing right of stage swinging his arms hehe great orchestral version this
ahh.. it reminds me of the summer in 2007 in Golden Sands in Bulgaria with my x girlfriend. this song was played many times in the karooke places:)
the best summer ever :)
Wow he still sounds great.
Nice to see a singer whose got the balls to sing live - a good voice still too. Good article on the back page of the Daily Telegraph finance section (August 28th) on him - seems like a good chap

As a young guy i love the oldies but this guy has lost his voice. Listen to a live version of 1972 and compare it to this one, very painful.
