Cliff Richard singing in the rain at Wmbledon 1996 (#1)


Part 1/4. When rain interrupted the tenniis on Wmbledon's Centre Courrt on 3 July 1996, Sir Cliff Richard stepped in to entertain the crowd with an impromptu 20 minute sing-along concert of six songs. Cliff was unaware this was going out on live television as he sang 'Summer Holiday', 'The Young Ones' and 'Bachelor Boy'. It was a unique spontaneous event at Wmbledon, and is unlikely to ever happen again. The 'concert' continues in part 2. Can anyone identify all the tenniis players (from left to right) in Cliff's backing group? part 2 - concert http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=... part 3 - interview/ media reports http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=... part 4 - interview/ media reports http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=...

one of the greatest moments in wimbledon history even though it had nothing to do with tennis!

lol that was amazin would love to see the singers of today have the guts to do that!

Forget all the 'Cliff singing for free' stuff, this was pure unadulterated self advertising. Old Cliffy is probably the world's best self publicist.

What a lovely gentleman. You can hardly imagine Oasis singing free of charge at a Manchester City football game if it was rained off. Hats off Sir Cliff.

Got to hand it to him for doing that impromptu performance on what was technically his day off!

That's an entertainer personified! He deserves Congratulations for the impromptu performance! I heard about this a week after the 1996 Wimbledon, a short blurb in U.S. TV. Glad to see the videos! Wonderful!

He should have given up after Livin Doll. The only thing that's missing from this pasturo is Maggie Thatcher doing the twist in the background.

Zadok the beast and Nathan the parrot annointed Solocliff king.

Cliff sang two songs without any musical backing in his 5oth anniversary concert and still sounded good. There are not many of todays singers that would even attempt to do that
