Andy Williams Dead

[ReadingRed]

He did a much better version of "Can't help falling in love" than the UB40 crap they play at the CG too.

Oh shit, sad news. It's so easy is one of my all time favourite songs. He had a great voice in his prime and seeing his Christmas specials reminds me of a time when Christmas was a more magical time. Shame the worlds gone to commercial shite these days.

RIP Mr Andy Williams.

Very true, probably my favourite version.

Really don't understand why the club chose to play one of the worst versions of that song to be played every week. Someone needs to have a word.

They should play his version at the Colchester game.

Sad loss, only really came to my attention following Austin Powers and that advert that used Music To Watch The Girls By.

Quite a career!

Moon River is a great song.

I saw that earlier. Living here, when there used to be Sunday afternoon football in the 70's/early 80's we had "match of the week" with Gerry Harrison commentating. Basically Ipswich one week, Norwich the next, with Luton getting a few appearances and an annual visit to Cambridge/Colchester. So growing up i saw a lot of Norwich on local TV and John Bond was the manager at the time, he had a good team there, i'm always surprised after leaving Man City that he didn't seem to do much elsewhere.

Heard on the radio on the drive home today that he had his first hit in the 1944 on a Bing Crosby record and his appearance in the charts was in 2009. A 65 year career, quite phenomenal.
