Eddie 1 a bit harsh on Sir Cliff, i think he´s had many fine records, its his image and dancing that make him naff. his early rock n roll was absolutely superb, then he done "Living Doll" oh dear. it was down hill all the way untill 1976 when he released the superb album "I´m Nearly Famous", guided by the great Bruce Welch, he had a string of amazing records, including the spine tingling "Miss You Nights". Then he sacked Bruce Welch!!!!! then he hasnt done anything of any significance since. although there were a couple of decent tracks on his last album, notably "1000 miles to go". But yo do have to get past the image, and that is a big problem. As for "Millenium Prayer" it really was a bad idea, it sounded like it was nailed together. But i do like the Gospel Choir bit, i think if the lords prayer hadnt been involved it would have been a great record to see out the millenium with.
In his defence, at least he tried to do something musically to mark the end of a millenium, lots of people knocked him for it, but where were the other big names in music. We ended up with "Westlife" and a re hash of "Seasons in the Sun" as the no 1 record to lead us into a new millenium......need i say more about the state of pop music in Britain.
I love going on the Cliff Richard website and stirring up theyre forum, its great fun and i suggest you all try it.
