Cliff Richard concert at Brighton Centre in Brighton, UK
Thu, 04 Dec 2025

Excellent show and great to see Cliff live. However, Cliff is now definitely getting old and it's really showing. His legs are going so he can't move around the stage so well; his talking voice is getting frail; and it looks like his memory is fading as he needed a cheat board for one song and he had trouble remembering the name of one of his band.

It is strange that his talking voice is so week, but his singing voice is as strong as ever. I can only assume that he is now miming to recordings made when he was much younger.

I have no problems with this, and I understand many performers no longer sing "live" to maintain quality. The crowd obviously adore Cliff and enjoyed the entire 2-hour performance, but it is sad to see how he is declining.
