In the 1970's he had a run of sophisticated and memorable singles leading up to 1979's We Don't Talk Anymore, a number 1 hit which that brought out the best in his soul-lite falsetto. The trade-off was his transformation into an ageless pop icon, the so-called "the Peter Pan of Pop".

Just an unforgettable one!

Cliff songs are all great but I loved wired for sound
A major hit in the 1980's, reaching number 4 in the UK Charts, this era of his music saw him move into synth-pop ir was taken from his album of the same name.
From the film of the same name, we all know it with him on the tour bus one of his best-known songs, summer classic!
If this song does not lift your spirits, then you are not human! Beautiful vocals, beautiful song. Thank you Cliff!
GREAT MEMORIES OF THAT TIME WHEN I WAS YOUNG.
My favourite from the selection given, although I would have chosen 'Miss You Nights' as my all time favourite.
This is my favorite song from Cliff, hands down...it's got a catchy beat and a story.
The best Pop Rock song ever...
Great song with a story
Beautiful song which sadly seems to have been mostly forgotten, other than by Cliff fans of course. Hopefully one day it will have it's day in the sun. Very pleased to see some deserved recognition in this poll.
The emotion portrayed within the vocals makes this song brilliant.
A great song unknown by the general public. Sung with great feeling.
Amazing vocals. Would blow anything on x-factor away.
The 1968 Eurovision entry for the UK, came 2nd to Russia by 1 point, but it has since emerged he probably should of won the 1 point Russia got extra could have been to do with a bribe!
IT'S AN ULTIMATE SONG OF THE CENTURY.
AN ABSOLUTE EAR LOVING SONG IT IS.
Just beautiful
This is a very happy song, and has always been one of my favorites.
This is a great track. Youthful and energetic vocals.
Slick and seemless
Like you I have been a Cliff fan - for me its been from the late 50's when he first started singing ( I am now 72 ) I saw him in Durban in 1980 and twice in Cape Town ( S A ) There are so many songs that I like and Dreaming is one of them. Thanks for posting this site - Peeter Muna
More pop-rock from Cliff's pop era a major hit in the 1980's.
Fantastic song
Just athemic, love it
Cliff is great iv'e been a fan from the 50's. He has been to South Africa 3 times that I know of - I saw him all 3 times - even now at 75 years of age he is still pulling them in - How many singers can do that. Cliff and his army of fans. thanks Peeter Muna
An classic 1960's summer hit. 'In the Country' is a very English take on California sunshine pop.
Great catchy sing-a-long track.
One of my favourites of Cliff Richard songs. Whenever I drive to the country side I
like to play this catchy song. I even sing it at karaoke several times.

This is one of my all time favourite this was when I first fell in love with cliff I was 5 year old in 1963 love the film so much that I am going to see the musical next week Saturday22 will see cliff in concert on the 15 October for his 60
This song is a dreamy ballad of lost love. My favorite for many years
Best song ever - keep going SIR CLIIFF and many, many thanks for all your great music with THE SHADOWS as well.
Another track with The Shadows which was also a No1 in 1980's with the 'kids' from sitcom The Young Ones. Written by Lionel Bart made popular by Cliff Richard and the Shadows (then still The Drifters) in 1959. It has topped the UK charts twice; in its original version and a new version recorded in 1986 in aid of Comic Relief.
It's his only good number and arguably the first British rock and roll song.
A 2005 Top 10 hit for Cliff, upbeat Rocky track about him driving his dad's car when he was young without him knowing.
Great song, even greater when performed live on stage!
Fab rock n roll sing
Was shocked to discovered he had a song made by Stock Aitken Waterman, but the song is very catchy and it sounds ahead of its time (production wise) considering the song was made in the late 80's
1989 UK #3 hit, a modern sounding pop song for the time. Produced by PWL, Stock Aitken and Waterman who worked to produce some of Kylie's biggest hits at the time.
This one is top on my list along with
We Don't Talk Anymore, Devil Woman and Dreamin'. A Little In Love gets my vote
Makes me remember my dream and his kisses. Cliff,s music cannot ever be beat! Having followed him for years, and loving all his music!
I can't believe that this song is not in the top 5... this song portrays the true essence of love musically and has certainly brought out the singing potential of Cliff Richard.
That was a wonderful song very emotive
Who would have thought that a singing vocal version of The Lord's Prayer combined with the theme to Auld Lang Syne would make it to the top of the u.k. charts?
The Millennium Prayer was a charity single released in the final week of November 1999 on the Papillon record label. All the proceeds generated from its record sales went directly to the Children's Promise organisation. It was the perfect song to end celebrate the end of a millennium and herald the beginning of a new one!
On its initial release, it caused such a great furore in the press and most radio stations refused point blank to even play the song. Certain individuals openly expressed their intense hatred of the song and described it as the worst single of the twentieth century! After a great deal more negative comments were made about the single, things got rather personal and Cliff himself was being discussed in a most unsavoury manner. Then something of a media frenzy ensued and it was anticipated that the ...more
Best Christmas pop-song ever
One of his two Christmas No1's in the UK, bit cheesey but, wouldn't be Christmas without a bit of Cliff.

The peppiest of them all. And one of the best.
