I'm so thankful that he at least lived until he was 67 - he gave us so many wonderful memories and beautiful music. I've played the piano since I was six and he was a God in my world. R.I.P. Liberace, thank you for the music. ♥
Why could they not let this poor man who gave and never asked for anything in return why did they behave that way. And have that autopsy it was no one's business today would have been hid 101birthday
What a wonderful man years ago i went to a concert and he gave me his autograph he had a candleloper pinkie ring breath taking is clothes and jewelry he will be missed
Lol. You throw condemnation on a man you dont even know because it is widely known he was gay. Oh, that just doesnt sit well with your beliefs, therefore you feel the need to say we will all have to .... Lol
If you dig Rock n Roll and punk rock or any other so-called extreme form of entertainment and don't see the outrageous, reckless and decadent showmanship that was Liberace, you're a friggin' square.
Sad. I didn’t know that. He was a boxing doc that’s how I knew him. I didn’t even know who Liberace was I’ve never heard of him but I’m kinda young I guess born in 1990
Behind the candelabra is not the true story the true story is the Canadian made film called behind the music if he had been allowed to marry Joanne del Rio everything would have been different rue
@@olivelane7903 no behind the candelabra was the true story since it was written in a book written by his lover Scott Thorsen, you just hate the though of him a gay I think
Right up to the end he denied that he was gay denied he had aids nothing to be ashamed of such a sad end to a glittering career great musician not a very nice person
He gave three of his lovers AIDS, fully aware he had it - I’d forgive him if he was using condoms and they were just accidents, but knowing the culture of the time, where gay men were reluctant to wear condoms until well after AIDS had been discovered, I suspect he infected them by practicing unsafe sex.
36 Years later, and we still Feel the loss.

Great job finding all of these old news clips!
They didnt look low def at the time
Why could they not let this poor man who gave and never asked for anything in return why did they behave that way. And have that autopsy it was no one's business today would have been hid 101birthday
He always made me smile
Indeed. He was always positive & upbeat.
What a wonderful man years ago i went to a concert and he gave me his autograph he had a candleloper pinkie ring breath taking is clothes and jewelry he will be missed
Missed is truly a understatement. What a class act.
Class act? He slept with an underage guy! 😅
There's no doubt that he was a great showman/pianist. His life was his life. We all will have to answer for our lives. May he rest in peace.
Answer for his life!! How bigoted and judgemental.
@@needtoknowbasis3499There’s nothing “judgmental” about the truth. It was “His life” Every one of us will give an account for our lives.
He was secretly infecting people with hiv...that is selfish and illegal
Lol. You throw condemnation on a man you dont even know because it is widely known he was gay.
Oh, that just doesnt sit well with your beliefs, therefore you feel the need to say we will all have to ....
Lol
Liberace is a true legend RIP Lee
Craig Kilborn used to call him Lee
If you dig Rock n Roll and punk rock or any other so-called extreme form of entertainment and don't see the outrageous, reckless and decadent showmanship that was Liberace, you're a friggin' square.
Dr Elias Ghanem died in 2001 of cancer. He was only 62. RIP.
Sad. I didn’t know that. He was a boxing doc that’s how I knew him. I didn’t even know who Liberace was I’ve never heard of him but I’m kinda young I guess born in 1990
He was one of the GREATEST showman EVER ❤
And he could suck a golf ball through a garden hose.
That's for sure !!
Mr. Showmanship
The world lost a kind soul!
Mr.Showmanship "LEE" LIBERACE 🎹🎤 🌟. R.I.P.
one of kind entertainers
He always worked all his life. Dont know how he kept up with his hectic schedules.
Yet he made it seem easy.
Miss him so much!!!
He live a full life. Worked hard, wanting nothing.
Isn't it interesting that the thumbnail looks like Michael Douglas who portrayed him in the film, Behind the Candelabra?! 🎹🎶
He was only 67 when he died??
Still can't believe this!
Rip Lee
I've had new respect for Liberace, his showman, and his music. May he rest in peace ❤🤍
click like if you too, came here after watfching matt damon and michael douglas movie, behind the candilabra!
Behind the candelabra is not the true story the true story is the Canadian made film called behind the music if he had been allowed to marry Joanne del Rio everything would have been different rue
@@olivelane7903 interesting.
@@olivelane7903 no behind the candelabra was the true story since it was written in a book written by his lover Scott Thorsen, you just hate the though of him a gay I think
@@olivelane7903 I guess you lived with him though right, your right Scott his ex lover was wrong..lol
@Athena Anffinson I have a feeling you hit the nail on the head there!
God Bless Liberace,who gave all! RIP :(
@@aalexjohna , jaja you stole my words man!
Prior to having a sickness he also had the AIDS virus he had a combination of both
He had a get away home next to my parents summer home in Miami.
The man was a legend,now lives on with David Maiocco
A lot of people don’t realize that Liberace played linebacker for the Baltimore Colts for 7 years and went to 5 pro bowls. I have his football jersey.
So cool! Fun fact! Gays can do anything a straight can do
No he didn't
That doctor towards the end needs to win a world record for the most uhh, uhmm, ahhh in one conversation ever.
That is so sad 😞 😔 😟 🙁 😥 😿 😞 😔 😟 🙁 😥 😿 😞 😔 😟 🙁 😥 😿 😞 😔 😟 🙁 😥 😿 😞 😔 😟 🙁 😥 😿 😞 😔 😟 🙁 😥
the man can't live forever on earth only in the great beyond!!
and where he is I'm so sure he's making music there too. As a little girl I said I was to marry him when I got to be 21, I was seven. RIP beauty.
who could ever believe he was straight
Right!
A true inspiration to play the ' piana ' . A cross between a piano
and a baguette .
RIP
He never harmed anyone but himself ..
gave out Aids tho
He killed two men with the AIDS, both of them much younger than him.
As a little girl I used to say I was going to marry him, I was 7 years old and I thought he was beautiful!
He was gay!
@@chrisvaughn5960 so what, I was a child!!
@@chuckbeedle1983 wasn't sure if you knew!
@@chrisvaughn5960 in 1968 we only knew girl and boy together and I was fine with that but nothing like these days.
Dr. Elias Ghanem was the same doctor who gave Elvis's pills. Strange, very strange !
Why is it strange?
I was just thinking that. It’s true. Elias Ghanem gave Elvis lots of dangerous drugs whenever he wanted and he’s partly responsible for his death.
Handlers
He died the way he lived. AIDS related pneumonia
Morreu de EIDS?
❤💖
One of a KIND.
Wow. He didn't have a wife??? Whata' surprise! 😂
I remember watching this when I was a kid in Las a Vegas. They were updating it and reported when he died. Oh man Ricki Cheese and Dave Waddell
His Dr Elias is a famous LV doctor, a big figure in boxing the old days
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Elvis and Liberace had The same Doctor..
But different boyfriends.
Elias Ghanem and Conrad Murray: Soulmates.
Glad some people had time to smoke a cigarette.
The 80s hair was part of the news report.
For the women it was much worse, it looks ridiculous. For the men no so much.
Dr Ghanem used to also treat Elvis giving him strong drugs for a hefty price .
Mr Dr feel good Elvis Dr he was the one got him to sleep for weeks
67 is now then new 57.

Lived by the piezo….died by the organ.
This editing is horrible
Sure is old.
What the hell kind of comment is THAT to make?? SO disrespectfull!! :
67? Not really.
@@markspel Just report and block him.
For someone who has a decent amount of subscribers, that wasn't very smart of you, either. Blocked.
I think he means the footage is old
Immune disease I think.
The reason Liberace chose the piano is because it was the only instrument he couldnt stick in his tucas.
RadioRIch100, NOT...FUNNY...Seems YOU know quite a lot about tukus!!!
@@SlimshadyVictoria He also got a candelabra stuck in there once!! He had a heck of a time trying to get it out!
Was it lit??
@NE 1 Yes I drove the towtruck that pulled out the candelabra.
What are you 12??
Right up to the end he denied that he was gay denied he had aids nothing to be ashamed of such a sad end to a glittering career great musician not a very nice person
Nothing to do with anyone his life,
He gave three of his lovers AIDS, fully aware he had it - I’d forgive him if he was using condoms and they were just accidents, but knowing the culture of the time, where gay men were reluctant to wear condoms until well after AIDS had been discovered, I suspect he infected them by practicing unsafe sex.
