    I saw Paul McCartney last week here in Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺 and he said show your hand if you’re from Brisbane so I put up my hand cos I live here but then he said how many of you are from the UK 🇬🇧 and I put my hand up again. There were 60,000 people there and the majority were not from Australia 🇦🇺 and most were from the UK 🇬🇧.

      Hi Sandra, isn't that amazing? It just shows you the number of people that travel to see an artist. I think Paul is probably known in the vast majority countries cuz they conquered America in the 60s but I know exactly what you mean... I wonderful to seem in concert. I'm envious I went to his original home last year. If you want to take a look at the video it's on the channel.... Regards, Alan

    My late mother loved Demis Roussos. She used to melt when she would hear Forever and Ever on the radio or him singing it on TV. I have to say, I played it just now on CZcams and I had to stop because it was making me teary-eyed thinking about my mother.
    I think one of the reasons why she liked him was because my mother was an overweight lady back in the 70s and she was a bit conscious of it so seeing Demis, who was also overweight being such a successful star made her feel better about it and I can understand that.
    She always liked any stars who were a bit overweight for that same reason but she really had a crush on Demis. Funny enough, when he died in 2015 it was long after my mother had gone and she was much older but Demis was roughly the same age as her when he passed away.

    Dear old Bert Newton, only passed away himself 2 years ago. I came to Oz in 1987 so wasn't familiar with this sketch, Demis Roussos was a good sport. Forever and Ever was played everywhere when we were in Spain in 1976. I did chuckle about My Friend the Wind, good old British humour. Alan, I didn't really know much about Demis except for his long hair and kaftans so thank you for the interesting info and what a magnificent grave he has! I'm afraid here in Adelaide we topped your 28 deg, it was 40 here yesterday...phew 🥵 Enjoy your holiday 😎☀

As for Demis Rousos, I am slightly taller, and when the lady who approached me for an autograph, I was about four or five stones lighter than him, so I don't know whether to feel flattered or slightly insulted. As for the singing voice, quite the opposite, I am a bass baritone, and no way could I reach his high notes without a very drastic operation, which even at 71 I am not planning to undergo.
