Sir Cliff Joins Facebook

Veteran British singer SIR Cliff Richard has joined Facebook.com after years of resisting - so he can keep in touch with his fans.

The Mistletoe and Wine hitmaker is embracing the social-networking site as a means of communicating with his devoted following, and admits he's surprised by how many people are logged on.

Speaking to fans in a video from his Barbados home, he says, "I didn't think I needed a Facebook page because I didn't think any of you used computers.

"I'm absolutely amazed by how many of you do. I'm really new to this sort of thing, so don't expect too much from me."

Hey Cliff, It's about time. Looking forward to your new soul duo project and Las Vegas Show. Have been a fan for as long as you've been around. You are the ultimate pop singer. Now if only we can get you into the Rockn'Roll Hall of Fame. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Bye.
