Billy Fury Quotes

Billy Fury was an internationally successful English singer from the late 1950s to the mid 1960s, and remained an active songwriter until the 1980s.  An early British rock and roll star, he equalled the Beatles' record of 24 hits in the 1960s, and spent 332 weeks on the UK chart, without a chart-topping single or album. He entered and won a talent competition, and by 1958 had started composing his own songs. In October 1959, the UK music magazine, NME, commented that Fury's stage antics had been drawing much press criticism. He released his first hit single for Decca, "Maybe Tomorrow", in 1959.
