An Autobiography

Brought to you by Penguin.

Cliff Richard tells his story, in his own words, in his highly anticipated new autobiography.

Achieving a hit in every decade since the 1950s, Cliff Richard stands alone in pop history. Coming of age in 1950s London, he began his music career at Soho's legendary 2i's Cafe, and now he's approaching his 80th birthday with record sales of over 250 million and counting.

Cliff Richard was a pioneer, forging the way for British rock 'n' roll with his unique sound. The original British teen idol, his incredible story takes us into the studio of TV's first pop show Oh Boy!, through 40 years of Top of the Pops and playing live up and down the country and across the world, with a constant backdrop of screaming fans.

Cliff looks back on his humble upbringing and how he went on to fulfil his wildest dreams by becoming a pop star and even a film star. He talks about finding Christianity, reflects on the ups and downs of life in the public eye and reveals how the false allegations against him changed his life forever.

He's seen era-defining pop stars come and go and he's still making new music, with a new project to be released this year. As a teenage Elvis fan in Cheshunt, this may have seem a distant dream. Here's his story of how he made it all happen.

"Before Cliff Richard and The Shadows, there was nothing worth listening to in British music." (John Lennon)

Inspirational and uplifting

I truly enjoyed this autobiography read for me by Cliff Richard. I have been a fan of his since the 1980s. I am sorry he had to go through the false accusations and scandal recently. He didn’t deserve that.

Sir Cliff Richard OBE - The Dreamer

An absolutely wonderful and well written autobiography of Sir Cliff's amazing life written by the man himself, Who still continues to inspire so many people and fans around the world, America and the world had Elvis and the UK and the world has Cliff!.
This book covers all aspects of Sir Cliff's life from his humble beginnings to his meteoric rise to worldwide stardom beginning in 1958 when a young 17 year old chap called Harry Webb began his recording life with a Rock & Roll classic called "Move It"
The stage was set and the fireworks flew as each new decade brought his story to the world, classic songs, unforgettable movies, concert tours and so much more, but as you will see in his autobiography Sir Cliff's feet are very much still firmly on the ground.
This book and his story are a joy to enjoy, the good, the bad and the ugly! Which is mention to the terrible and groundless accusations brought by the BBC, I recommend this autobiography very highly, it is superb and rich in detail, reflection and insight into what makes and sustains a global superstar with true staying power.I
Thank you Sir Cliff and thank you Audible for making this title available to us all.

Cliff reading to me

I have never used audio books before, but so glad I did, as I found listening to Cliff telling his story, with all the added extras that reading it yourself you don't get, for one, pages of a book don't sing to you and listening to him, you hear the emotion and the happiness in various parts of the book, emotion that brings tears to your eyes and in other parts makes you laugh out loud, one of the saddest parts for me was the end, hearing him talk of epitaphs and when he is no longer here, don't really want to think about that, even though you know it will happen someday, long into the future i hope, as the world will be a sadder place without him, he has kept me going over the years, as he has done for so many others, long may he Reign. Love you Cliff xx

Top drawer! Just like “Everything” Cliff Richard attempts!

The pace and content draws one completely in and reveals another Cliff Richard “Hit”! Loved hearing his story in his own words.
