Im singing this for my solo, in my vocal class

Does anyone know who the brilliant lady on piano is?

Always enjoyed his singing. Nobody like him these days.

Great sounding UKE. Only UKE ever made with spruce top.

Just beautifully written and sung

What a beautiful voice he had. Makes me tear up for some reason.

That poor lady what was he doing to her 🤣

🎉 Happy Birthday George Formby 🎉

This song simply makes you feel happy. So many words, so well put together. George was a genius. Comedian and especially playing his ukulele. God bless you George.

Amazing how true to this arrangement is the Herman’s Hermits version…also George Harrison was a tremendous fan of Mr Formby and had quite a collection of ukuleles

George was an icon of his age. Noel Gay was such a clever song writer. Just perfect words and music.

How about meeting at the local pub.

So this is where Herman's Hermits got this song.

George Fornby Never gets Old!!! 🎸🎶

I first heard of George Formby when I was reading about famous musicians that played ukulele. I have a collection of some of Formby's songs as well as songs by Cliff "Ukulele Ike" Edwards and Roy "Wizard Of The Strings" Smeck.

George Formby was my 3rd cousin. He was so sweet and talented 😊

These two can really play.

Feel free to contact

Turn out nice again.

What a magnificent performance. The interplay between the ukulele and the piano is wonderful.

Written at the top of Acorn St in Newton-le-Willows

Beautiful. So brilliant and poetic and poignant. And what he did in South Africa when no-one else was on board? Total Respect! A Great Man.

QUEEN ELIZABETH II BROUGHT ME HERE❤❤❤

What a treasure 🪙

Paul McCartney in concert at various times has mentioned George Formby and I'm fully confident that "When I'm 64" is Paul McCartney's attempt at writing a George Formby song

Elizabeth's ii favorite song

The scene is from the movie Matchstick Men : Roy is in his car smoking waiting for his daughter and listening to this song.

Queen Elizabeth died yesterday and they said this was one of her favourite songs, and I immediately went who's George Formby, Herman's Hermits sang it. Now I've found this version not sure which one I prefer. They are different to each other, guess I like both versions.

Just learned from BBC2 that HM Queen Elizabeth II loved this song, as we celebrate her life. So, i search it on YT. Great

Vim ouvir depois de saber que Queen Lilibeth gostava dessa

God bless are noble Queen

Distant relative of mine, quite proud of that

My 13 y.o. just showed me this...'nuff said.

My Aunty Lucy,who lived in Myra Rd,Lytham St Annes was a good friend of George.He used to pop round for a"cup of tea" now and then.

He ripped this off from Herman's hermits.

great song, very rare example of a song going from swing to straight on the second verse

Is that Polly Ward at the piano?

O mi o my how has this aged badly. i hope the little lady does get away.

I saw Herman (Peter Noone) perform this song at Disneyland in around 1975. I never new the history!
