RICHARD REFUSES TO QUIT
SIR CLIFF RICHARD has promised fans he will never turn his back on music because he wants to continue to prove his critics wrong.
The veteran pop star has enjoyed a career spanning over five decades and recently announced plans to follow in Radiohead’s footsteps and release his new album as a digital download.
And Richard is defiant his music will stand the test of time, despite the changes in modern technology - as much as his critics wish he would just retire.
He says, "As artists, we face a stark choice. We either keep one step ahead of the technology or we throw up our hands and quit. Personally, I’m not for quitting! "The buzz I get from performing to a live audience is just as real and exciting as it ever was - and hopefully I’ve a few years left in me yet.
"I know a lot of people think I’m a no-no as a musical entity, but when they’re writing textbooks I will have to be in there. People will hate it but I will have to be there.
"I’ve had an average of three hits a year during my career."
