I knew Edwyn briefly in his youth, and I can genuinely say he was one of the wittiest, most articulate human beings I had ever met, a man with a genius for invention. Great to see him fighting back to health. Most impressed with Grace's love and dedication.
I have a high respect for his wife who stood by him and supported him when he had his strokes, which affected him mentally and physically and helped him on his road to recovery. That to me is an example of a spouse who loves unconditionally and who is there in both the good and bad times.
go Edwin, your such a great guy, I'm sure you'll probably never read this but I remember listening to "a girl like you " whilst at work as a mechanic on coaches when it was a massive hit. happy days..... keep up your hard work my friend,get well.
This is heartbreaking! I absolutely adore this musician, artist and incredible human being- So grateful that he has the love and care of his wife and son.
Inspirational. I grew up as a teenager listening to You Can’t Hide Your Love Forever. It’s still one of my favourite albums. Every few years I pull it out again. It had a spirit that is uncommon now. A lack of fear to do it your own way. All the best Edwyn.
This mans work means so much to me and I am truly grateful for all the joy his songs have given. It’s so sad that he is no longer fully self sufficient but his bravery and perseverance in what must be testing times for him and his family is admirable. God bless you Edwyn x
I've been listening to Rip It Up every day for the past couple of weeks. It was written about me and a woman I know. The sultry in the rain bit, but she was engaged. Then years later she got in touch, but I didn't want her then. Literally written for me, divinely inspired.
As someone who has had a stroke, this is sad, u literally don’t remember shii, speaking and how the brain works changes, it’s like when u see him stuggle to talk it brings back when I couldn’t do anything like walk and talk, dis vid moved me, I am 18 turning 19 soon and had my stroke just after my 17 bday, everyone should be greatful for what they have, I thought nothing like dis could happen to me n just my luck dis happened to me
I remember hearing Edwyn Collins song A Girl Like You as a kid and hearing it at the age I’m at now it’s still amazing as ever from when I heard it being played as a kid. 😄😄😀😀. Such an amazing singer and songwriter. 😄😀.
My sympathy and best wishes to him...and his great gal..! This guy has the music in his little finger,his style is unique ,his music brings joy ! Cheers EDWYN !
Just watched again, Edwyn is an inspiration, When we have a bit of a shitty day we get angry and stamp about, Edwyn has faced these feelings every moment of everyday since , And he still smiles , total hero.
Nothing but the absolute best to you Edwyn. Your music still resonates and continues to change the terrain for the better. Your recovery is an inspiration.
Crikey Edwyn, didn't know about your health problems until I found this tonight. I so hope you are continuing on the road to recovery. I went to see you in Manchester just before "Rip It Up" charted and "Flesh of My Flesh" has always been one of my favourite songs of all time. All the best Edwyn, and thank you so much for your music
What an awesome guy and his wife is amazing, A great musician and also a great comedy actor, he was hilarious in west heath yard, Love and respect to you edwyn.
This is a testament to the true strength of love and the Human Nature. One does not come back from an experience like this without strength and love surrounding you. I'm so glad that Edwyn was blessed with Grace - both in his wife, and in his circumstance.
This is just crazy. I've just watched his great song A Girl Like You that I remember vividly back in 1983, and then this!!! Oh, Edwyn, I hope you beat this awful affliction!!
Love Edwyn Collins and his music. Loved orange juice rip it up , and later girl like you a genius musician A lovely man with a great supportive wife. Grace has a lovely kind face and warm eyes who clearly adores Edwyn And he her God bless them a lovey couple who hopefully have many more years together
🌈🥸🫠 Many, MANY thanks for sharing this with us! 👌💐 Congratulations and best wishes to you both, on your amazing progress. 🤗 Lovely to hear your gorgeous voice again. Onwards and upwards 🙏 Please keep us posted 📫 Chrz from NZ! 🇳🇿 🌹 🙏
I’m always shocked when I haven’t seen someone for 30 yrs and how people change. Once you get to 45 you don’t seem to recognise yourself any more. When I look at eighties stars I think god they have aged then think god so have I where has 30 yrs gone. Hope Edwyn continues to do well.
Hope all the recovery is going really well for Edwyn with his missis standing strong with him. It’s over just so sad to see this great songwriter having to start over. I new he’d had a brain hemmorage but didn’t realise the full extent of it all......stay positive fella👏👏👏
I did not know this ...remember seeing Orange Juice at the Rothes Arms in Glenrothes i'm a little shocked....so my best wishes from Kaapstad..and in the words of the late Dave Allen...may your God go with you.
I saw him and his good lady at the latitude festival around this time. He wasn't able to speak as clearly as before but his singing was as good as ever.
What do you mean? He's recorded four studio albums since then, the latest of which was released in 2019. His talent is very much still here, and in brilliant form. =)

Courageous
Edwyn is a genius, still so freakin underrated as a song-writer
If he was underrated they would not be featuring him on the news would they?
@@NickHarman You know what was meant.
That was so cute when his wife said that he was more soft hearted and then he started giggling. That giggling was so cute, god bless Edwyn Collins.
his wife is the angel everyone needs by their side,GOD bless them both forever
I have a high respect for his wife who stood by him and supported him when he had his strokes, which affected him mentally and physically and helped him on his road to recovery.

go Edwin,
your such a great guy,
I'm sure you'll probably never read this but I remember listening to "a girl like you " whilst at work as a mechanic on coaches when it was a massive hit.
happy days.....
keep up your hard work my friend,get well.
"Girl like you" was our song with my husband who died 11 years ago. Edwyn is a strong and talented man with a lovely lady by his side. Go on pal!
Indeedy
I saw him in concert last night - it was beautiful. A stunning performance.
This is heartbreaking! I absolutely adore this musician, artist and incredible human being- So grateful that he has the love and care of his wife and son.
Those two playing guitar together is so moving. True love.
He still has a beautiful voice.
Oh my God, i didn’t knew. It breaks my heart. Poor guy, i truly hope that you’ll recover completly. Stay strong and may God bless you.
Humble, lovely guy. His wife too. God bless them ♥️
A Very brave Man...A Tremendous Inspiration for all of us....

How lucky to have had his career, supportive family, and health.

Oh my Lord.
I knew, but I had never actually saw this.
Edwyn... remember... Scotland is behind you. :-*
Omg I'm so sad. I recently learned about Edwyn Collins its so sad to see him struggle to speak and walk. :-(
This is absolutely heartbreaking 😢.
God bless him great artist.
Our thoughts are still with you Edwin.
I want to see the movie! I just discovered him and his hit song yesterday!!!!!! Never heard about him before!!!
I love him
Respect mate 👍
He seems to have a lovely and supportive wife. Take care Edwyn, I hope you doing well.

Sounds like stroke is a humbling experience. It's not just focusing on what you can do, rather than what you can't, it's about what you have gained.
I just bought a Cd of Orange juice ..love Rip ..makes me very happy...
What a great man, and, wow, what a woman.
So sad to see. Fab singer....get well soon!
Love Edwyn!
Bless him.
Aw, such an amazing story :)
Lovely, inspirational!
Bless them both.
I saw him and his good lady at the latitude festival around this time. He wasn't able to speak as clearly as before but his singing was as good as ever.
…..such a tragic tale…..we’ve been robbed of his great talent. Hope he is much, much better.

What a sweet guy. Tragic!

Wonderful man, get better soon bro.
