I think FS’s Vincent is one of UK comedy’s treasures like 4 candles, dead parrot, Stewart Lee’s Braveheart. FS died in controversy, poverty and shame. But Vincent remains outside of all that. And I love these ‘Americans react to ….’ channels for another occasion to watch stuff like this. British comedy is a long unbroken line of the evolution of some incredibly daring ideas that have been a staple of British culture.
Freddie was a hero to many of us. Unpredictable, mad, infuriating to other hosts and simply brilliant. I've watcjed this many times adn it never gets old. Lovely to see he's still getting new fans!
He was 1 in a MILLION, gave the British people a LOT of laughs and entertainment over the years, a ONE-MAN entertainment package! He had it all..... The comedy, the look, the voice and the personality! Unfortunately, the BRITISH media over here have a reputation for ruining the best that we have, and that is what killed Freddie Starr! (started with the SUN Newspaper years ago!) But, that is a different story altogether! I just like to remember the man for what he was, and that was a pure LEGEND!!!
@@colindavid2078 also he had a hard time cos he came from liverpool and lot of people dont like scousers dont forget what john lennon said about liverpool people
good old Freddie, he was brilliant, I just love the way he used to move when speeding up, he just had amusing motions, and the looks and expressions on his face, I have been lucky enough to see him live, he was something else, I'm glad he appeals to you too
He came out of the same 'school' of music as the Beatles. He was lead singer in one of the big Merseybeat bands that burst out of Liverpool in the early 60s. I was waiting for the line after 'Starry, Starry Night......Paint Your Bollix Blue & Grey'. So he clearly used different versions. He did the 'Bollix' line live on UK tv and they started avoiding him after that. His 'Elvis' was just sooo accurate, it was unnerving. Plus, he NEVER ate hamsters...He was yet another Scouse with reason to despise Murdock and The Sun. RIP La!
Been looking at your Freddie vids this week. You've certainly got good taste young lady. I think those of us in the UK who loved Freddie miss his comedy routines terribly He was a one off talent never to be bettered.
I just subscribed, thanks for this. As you'll know, Freddie started out as a singer, but couldn't help putting jokes in the act and the rest is history.
I enjoyed watching your reaction, it was nice to see someone truly "getting" the humour instead of just laughing where they think they should, or looking confused when a joke sails over their head. well done
What a beautiful reaction to Freddie. Loved how you said he is sadly missed. Millions of people would agree with you. First time watching your reaction to anything. Loved it so much I instantly subscribed.
I did see him live in the 60s when he was a doorman in Blackpool his payment was a 3 min spot on stage he was very cool and has a fantastic voice best Elvis impersonator I have ever seen
Love that you’re a Freddie fan. Most Americans won’t know of him. I always loved seeing him on the telly growing up in Scotland. It was the chaos I loved. Thanks, you deserve more viewers, you’re a good reactor. I’ve liked and subscribed.
You’ve got great taste, much loved sensitive comedian that will and is sadly missed, some of his old sketches would make my jaws ache through laughing 😂.
I remember him when he won the popular public vote six weeks running on the TV talent show "Opportunity Knocks" hosted by Hughie Green in the late 1960s and I've been a fan of Freddie Star ever since. What a shame he is no longer with us to give us some laughter in this mad dangerous world we're now living in! You can't teach comedic talent like that: you've either got it, or you don't, and Freddie definitely had it in truck loads! RIP Freddie! Much missed!
Thank you for sharing. Your reaction is lovely! Glad you have discovered the amazingly talented Freddie Starr in America. He was one of Britains greatest entertainers. Missed and loved very much. 💖💖💖
Saw him live many times a versatile talented and somewhat troubled man. He died virtually penniless in spain. A funeral director in my hometown repatriated him to the UK organised his funeral in Liverpool when people realised the situation they donated money to help meet the cost. There was a TV series called "An Audience With" here in the UK. They selected a celebrity act put them in a studio with other celebreties as the audience and filmed it. Freddie was one of a small number of people who did two shows a few years apart. The show is about an hour so probably too long to show on RUclips but if you want to see the extent of his talent try watching one of his An Audience with Freddie Starr shows. He was one of the few acts who came on stage not say or do anything and get the audience laughing!
Best comedian of all time. Had the pleasure of seeing him live twice, never disappointed. Hope you've seen his Elvis impersonation with the Jordenaires???
I hope you do more reactions to Freddie Starr. He was an extremely talented comic and singer. Freddie Starr was a remarkable mimic. You should see his Ray Charles and Mick Jagger impersonations. Hilarious 😂😂😂
A STAR BY NAME A START IN EVER SENSE. SAW HIM IN I THINK ABOUT 1964/5 IN RHYL. FOR OUR AMERICAN FRIENDS RHYL IS IN NORTH WALES. RIP GREAT MAN FUNNY MAN. 💔💔
I love the way he wipes the recalcitrant bogey on the wall, with such smooth discretion!🤣 I never tire viewing this classic and as I did when first I saw it, I always end up picking pieces of floor boards out of my teeth while trying to regain a clear air passage!😂
One of my favourite comedians. Agree with everything you say. He was handsome, funny, and could sing. Keep them coming! Also among my favourites are Billy Connolly and Dave Allen. Check them out.
I’ve watched this sketch a few times. I just love Freddie. If ever I feel down I watch this with Barry-I love her Dixie accent. He makes me laugh so much. Have a Barry nice day x
Just saw this on RUclips and watching you watching this brought back so many brilliant memories of my youth, laughing so hard at him and also never know if he would sing it normally or in the speeded up and slowed down bits. R.I.P Freddie so truly missed. But you should also watch Les Dawson playing the piano it's just as funny he used to play it either normally or of key, I'd have loved to see Freddie singing like this and Les Dawson playing piano of key
Great reaction. You truly have good taste in comedy young lady. This routine was a classic and I remember it aired in the UK that day. Had tears rolling down my face with laughter. You have to watch him trying to juggle barbed wire too 😂😂
He learnt his craft as a Red Coat (holiday camp entertainer). It's a shame now, these tallented people are no longer wanted for entertaiment on the TV.
As a family, we saw him in Cardiff in the 1980s. My Mam learnt that night that I wasn't her little boy when he did the bra gag. 2 wives in, both draw around. Daily entertainment from your loved ones!
Amazing talent was Freddie. Fantastic singer who could have been one of 'The Beatles' - He turned them down. Loved seeing him on the Des O'Conner show.
Just never get tired of this Vincent act. Think it's one of the funniest things ever. Talking about his voice check him out [if you haven't already] singing with the Jordanaires. They provided background vocals for Elvis. Maybe you could react to Freddie and the Jordanaires doing 'Falling in Love.' It's so good.
Brilliant... Have you seen Freddie Star and Muhammad Ali on the Michael Parkinson Show England... Its so funny and Ali is entranced by Freddie Stars stories. Frank. 👍
An incredibly talented and funny man.
I honestly don’t think a lot of people realise how great he was.
I think FS’s Vincent is one of UK comedy’s treasures like 4 candles, dead parrot, Stewart Lee’s Braveheart. FS died in controversy, poverty and shame. But Vincent remains outside of all that.

I do
He was the most talented comedian in the world, he is sadly missed RIP Freddie
I'm 67 years of age and sitting here crying with laughter. Brings back a lot of good memories from my youth.
Thank you, Kind regards UK
I’m nearly 50. I remember my grandparents laughing at him. Those days are gone, but memories are sweet.
It's not just what he does, but how he does it, genius, doubt that there is anybody with this level of talent today
Freddie was a hero to many of us. Unpredictable, mad, infuriating to other hosts and simply brilliant. I've watcjed this many times adn it never gets old. Lovely to see he's still getting new fans!
loved him made you laugh till you cried ,
He was a legend, saw him live twice, I was blessed by the Gods of comedy :)
THIS MAN IS MISSED. HE WAS ONE OF A KIND
He was 1 in a MILLION, gave the British people a LOT of laughs and entertainment over the years, a ONE-MAN entertainment package! He had it all.....

If you can find an Audience with Freddie Starr on the internet , it’s a gem , he has the audience petrified
I had the privilege to see Freddie live and have never laughed so much . My head was aching afterwards . Rest In Peace great man x
You speak for millions of fans
he had the gift of every great comic being able to keep a straight face when needed
He was a very funny and gifted entertainer.... sadly missed - RIP Freddie
I remember the first time he did this on telly many tears before this. The whole family were in stitches
I saw that the 1st time He did it on TV decades ago and it still reduced Me to tears. :) Thanks
good old Freddie, he was brilliant, I just love the way he used to move when speeding up, he just had amusing motions, and the looks and expressions on his face, I have been lucky enough to see him live, he was something else, I'm glad he appeals to you too
The man is missed he was truly brilliant,one of the great,rip Freddie.
An incredibly talented man.
I don’t think a lot of people realise that.
It really good to know (…and also a little surprising!) that such a young American actually gets freddy’s humour. I am impressed 😉
He did have a good voice and loved Elvis and when he sang his songs he took them seriously
Freddie was definitely one of a kind , a true legend
You'll love Freddie Starr and The Jordanaires singing Elvis . They were backing group in the 50s with Elvis
That is an awesome bit of Freddy history, he is by far the funniest.
He came out of the same 'school' of music as the Beatles. He was lead singer in one of the big Merseybeat bands that burst out of Liverpool in the early 60s. I was waiting for the line after 'Starry, Starry Night......Paint Your Bollix Blue & Grey'. So he clearly used different versions.

I read that Ringo Starr took his me after.Freddie. could be bollocks mind 😬🤔
Been looking at your Freddie vids this week. You've certainly got good taste young lady. I think those of us in the UK who loved Freddie miss his comedy routines terribly He was a one off talent never to be bettered.
Yep ! No one ever came near to his genious & i am a scoucer aged 71 now here Thailand17 years with my own simple Y/T chanel.
@@hookywookywithmalarkyman704 Too right. The way he was treated in his last few years was dispicable, he was a poorly and a broken man.
well said Sugar :)
R..I.P Freddie. A complete one off and grately missed. An amazing talent. Funny as hell with a very good singing voice
Watched him preform this live at the Futurist Theatre Scarborough in the mid-eighties. Still laugh at it after all these years. Brilliant all Rounder!
Freddie Starr was a one of very talented. Missed greatly. Your reaction is superb. Watched a few times you really enjoyed it. Beautiful smile
Came back to watch this again! It's a joy to watch Freddie and your reaction is fantastic! love it ❤️
Comic Genius !! Freddie Starr. R I P
Still piss myself with this one. He did warn you "and for the hard of hearing" miss this man
RIP Freddie……an everlasting legend….
I just subscribed, thanks for this. As you'll know, Freddie started out as a singer, but couldn't help putting jokes in the act and the rest is history.
Brilliant. Cheers for bringing Freddie Starr forward.
I enjoyed watching your reaction, it was nice to see someone truly "getting" the humour instead of just laughing where they think they should, or looking confused when a joke sails over their head. well done
RIP freddie my what a talent he was
I saw him live he was one of the greats

How awesome was that , closest I’ve been to being sick due to laughing 👍🏴
You’ve got great taste, much loved sensitive comedian that will and is sadly missed, some of his old sketches would make my jaws ache through laughing 😂.
His shows were absolute mayhem, my ribs hurt from laughter
I remember him when he won the popular public vote six weeks running on the TV talent show "Opportunity Knocks" hosted by Hughie Green in the late 1960s and I've been a fan of Freddie Star ever since. What a shame he is no longer with us to give us some laughter in this mad dangerous world we're now living in!

We need this on our screens now..there is none of this silly humour anymore ..
Aww R.I.P my Freddie Star I did watch you back in the late 80s what a good reaction video that was for you we will always love Freddie ❤
Thank you for sharing.
Your reaction is lovely!
Glad you have discovered the amazingly talented Freddie Starr in America.

Find his ‘Vincent’ routine with the faulty backing tape, it’s absolutely brilliant😂
Bang on😅

Freddie Starr is amazing, I grew up watching him in the 80's and 90's, he is hilarious.
I love the way he wipes the recalcitrant bogey on the wall, with such smooth discretion!🤣 I never tire viewing this classic and as I did when first I saw it, I always end up picking pieces of floor boards out of my teeth while trying to regain a clear air passage!😂
Lovely face and smile on this young lady.

Wow, i think Freddie would have been be gobsmacked and then tickled pink to know his work lives on and is appreciated all these years later. 👍💞😘

A legend Freddie ⭐️

His impressions of Ray Charles are hilarious. A comic genius
Tay
He was one of the all time greats you should check out his song the title is, its you, great song
Genius freddie Starr seen him loads a truely one off never be another one like him ever 💯💯😊
Ha ha, you did indeed get a warning that Freddie was about to yell 'VINCENT' He said, 'For the hard of hearing'.
For people with one ear?!🙄
Freddie Starr was a genius of his day.
I love your accent and appreciation of Freddie. Greetings from Brit guy in Asia.
He learnt his craft as a Red Coat (holiday camp entertainer). It's a shame now, these tallented people are no longer wanted for entertaiment on the TV.
As a family, we saw him in Cardiff in the 1980s. My Mam learnt that night that I wasn't her little boy when he did the bra gag. 2 wives in, both draw around. Daily entertainment from your loved ones!
My mum used to be in tears with laughter imagine a comedian of today trying real comedy..
Great voice and a comic genius
Sad how he ended up a virtual recluse. Seen him live on stage, he was brilliant.
He was my cousin, met him a few times. The last time was at his mother's funeral.
My cousin is Terry Hurlock who played for Millwall and beat Vinny Jones up lol! Never met him 😂
@@pommiebears 🤷♂️
Brilliant sketch and brilliant reaction 🥰🥰
Freddie doing The Skyboat Song with Des O'Connor is brilliant too.
Freddie was a true legend and sadly missed
Always loved Freddie performing he was a star and not just because of his surname.
Brilliant choice, loved it!
Amazing talent was Freddie. Fantastic singer who could have been one of 'The Beatles' - He turned them down. Loved seeing him on the Des O'Conner show.
He was as mad as a box of frogs.
He was really funny back then , he also had a really really good singing voice .
He knew how to work an audience, good man ,good video.
I loved Freddie he's always live!!....subbed 😂
Just never get tired of this Vincent act. Think it's one of the funniest things ever. Talking about his voice check him out [if you haven't already] singing with the Jordanaires. They provided background vocals for Elvis. Maybe you could react to Freddie and the Jordanaires doing 'Falling in Love.' It's so good.
Love you Freddie ..god I miss ya man .
Freddie, the best!
We just watched a masterclass in comedy timing.
Beautiful Elvis voice chased by a Mac 💕
he made people laugh without even doing anything
I remeber when he made his debeue on who do you do in 1970. He was absolutely brillient.
Such Talent
He was a genius.. love the man
i have just watched your reaction and it was brilliant
Freddie Starr is hilarious! My first time hearing of him!
Brilliant... Have you seen Freddie Star and Muhammad Ali on the Michael Parkinson Show England... Its so funny and Ali is entranced by Freddie Stars stories.
Frank. 👍
Yes I have it’s one of my favorites
Great reaction, you may or may not know he was a huge Elvis fan. Please react to Freddie singing Elvis
You need to see The Parkinson Show, Freddie Starr with Muhammad Ali.
Freddie actually did an Elvis impersonation in front of Elvis. Elvis loved it. Thank you for reacting to Freddie. Watch him with Muhammad Ali too.
