Wow. My partner cleaned out the drawers in our coffee table and found a Countdown cd box set. This song was on it. Haven't heard it in years. Very beautiful. Lover Jon in the mini series 'Against the wind' brings back so many memories ♥️

@sombra negra born in England. Came here when he was 12 yrs old. No more Australian than Mel Gibson who was born in America and came here when he was 14yrs old. Ok you shit for brains?
in the 1970s i fell in love with jon english and i still love him. I was so sad about his death and I had hoped to see him still live in Stockholm, for example. Many greetings from Finland ❤️
Loved Jon as an entertainer. I saw him in theatre, on TV in various projects, and live just being a musician. Loved him in all of them. One of the most underrated, and most talented performer. I was privileged to see you in live performances. Thank you ❤️

Did you see him in Pirates of Penzance? I was lucky enough to be there with a friend, and we agreed it was the best night's entertainment we'd had in years! Such a talented actor and singer, a natural storyteller 😊. So sorry he's gone from our stages. But we can still enjoy his amazing performances on video. 😀
@yuyiya Unfortunately no, never got to see Jon in person in the Pirates of Penzance BUT do have the DVD & have watched many times. " With Cat like tread" is my favourite.
RIP Jon. So sad to hear of your passing today. I met him in 2000 at the movies in Parramatta; we had a great chat; he was with his grandson. What a wonderful legend. We will all miss you mate. An icon of Oz gone too soon. Much love and many tears always. xxxxxxxxx :-(
we played support gigs with jon and the foster brother's in the early 80s and my brother ran into jon at a convention 20yrs later and he never forgot about he was a fantastic guy rip buddy! !
When this came out I would never have heard it because it was not played on the mainstream Radio stations as far as I am aware. I was at a disco and the DJ put this on. I asked him what it was and bought it the next day. It languished on the fringes of the charts here in the UK. He was born in England, a real talent, a very powerful song, sang powerfully as well which deserved much, much more recognition. Yes the music at the time was very strong but this song was still deserving a to be a number one in the charts and recognised as one of the greatest songs and performances of the decade and since as well
@@ivanugliarse no dickhead. you guys just cant spot talent. he reared his genius in the land of second chances. no caste system here unlike you anachronistic fools that still genuflect to a dead gone monarchy!

My dear friend Julie loved this song and John English. She sadly passed very unexpectedly recently. I play this honouring my dear friend. Thanks for GREAT memories xx

Listened to this smashing my GTHO around the Blue Mountains....back in 1988.....yeah I know it'll be worth more than the house deposit in 1991...11%interest....ouch!doesn't hurt so much on a $127000 loan in Lane Cove Sydney NSW!!!

Not everyone appreciated him but I thought he was an amazing talent and thank God he was one of ours. Nothing like Aussie talent.

He was a brilliant entertainer ❤
He was born in the UK
@@austhaitravelaHello pretty how are you doing ?
@@philipswilson Pretty good thanks
Saw him in concert MANY times. To those who did not - I am sorry. You missed a true entertainer. I miss you Jon!
Saw him also many times.... But he was spectacular in musicals. Brilliance every time.

Great tunes on those cds

Not only was Jon English a great singer but also a underrated actor. Who could ever forget against the wind and his comedy talents in all together now
All together now, was where he played himself. Classic...
This man makes me happy to be Australian
you know he was english right?
Same here
@sombra negra born in England. Came here when he was 12 yrs old. No more Australian than Mel Gibson who was born in America and came here when he was 14yrs old. Ok you shit for brains?
@@donpixote3321 he lived here and he loved it
Just like my father
That makes him as Aussie as I am
@@metalheadmachine4861 I agree. Take no notice of those who denigrate others.
in the 1970s i fell in love with jon english and i still love him. I was so sad about his death and I had hoped to see him still live in Stockholm, for example. Many greetings from Finland ❤️
Only recently I rediscovered this genius in that 90s sitcom ALL TOGETHER NOW
My god this guy was A TALENTED Demigod!!!!
Loved Jon as an entertainer. I saw him in theatre, on TV in various projects, and live just being a musician. Loved him in all of them. One of the most underrated, and most talented performer. I was privileged to see you in live performances. Thank you ❤️
my mother introduced me to this beautiful man and can I just say I've been listening to him for the past week he's so amazing.
Jon owned every song he ever sang..One of the greats.
Vale Jon English. One of the greatest contributors to the soundtrack of my childhood. The music lives on and all the wonderful memories remain.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face ..
I've watched & litsened to this so many, many times.. R.I.P Pirate King!

This song encaputlates an epic story. Based on a fictional character, but enveloping the true lives of others, so well written.
we played support gigs with jon and the foster brother's in the early 80s and my brother ran into jon at a convention 20yrs later and he never forgot about he was a fantastic guy rip buddy! !
i remember listening to you when i was a little girl ...You were one of the greats.. You will be missed ..
So very underrated, especially from my generation. Still can't believe he's gone.
This song always sent shivers up my spine. Still does "crazy lipstick marks up on the wall". Still haunting.

Shattered to hear of Jon's passing, a genuine Aussie Star.....
R.I.P Mate
British born.If he wasn't famous he'd be a pommy B
My mortician friend prepared him she said he was dressed in his favorite footy colours....
