Andy Bell and Erasure are still around because they are so talented-his voice is still perfect and don't think many could sing his songs

[@seanwalsh3627]

Any of you who are lucky enough to live to 50, you'll be doing well to look as good as this guy, who is still be regarded as a superstar by millions of people all over the world. And I' m a very straight man. Huge respect to Andy, and long me he continue.

[@cooperman0412]

Leaving Scotland in the early hours tomorrow to go and see Andy & Vince at Dalby Forest, can't wait................well done to Andy for being able to keep on top of all his commitments with PTO and gigging.

[@halo7982]

"Always" was my fav song of theirs

[@safetyfirstdaniel]

What a wonderful person! I'm so desperate to see Erasure live

[@MarkusDuesseldorf]

Andy is a very kind person, and Erasure was one of my most favourite pop bands in my youth in the 80s. He even speaks German very well! And it's great that he's still in the business with great new songs.

[@CarlitosDJmx]

admire the fact of being on tour and into the PSTOP tv show at same time...you;re just amazing Andy... respectfully: Carlitos

[@127834]

What a legend you are Mr. Bell! Thank you for the music

[@popazz1]

There you go,THIS is what real music's all about! 20-odd years and STIll giving us what we want! AND proving that hiv isn't the 'death sentence' we've been led to believe it is. You ROCK Andy!

[@deejay2010ism]

I love you Andy Im off to New York and "You Surround Me" is my song thanks for everything.. Oh Sometimes the truth is harder than the pain inside...

[@Jussi1400]

I saw Erasure gig in Helsinki on -90's and it was awesome!!!. I wish all the best for Andy & Vince in the future. Thanks for your music. It has a meaning.

[@sprintpg]

He's brilliant!!! ❤️🎶🎶🎶

[@derekstynes9631]

Good to see Andy working Hard again! We grew up with his music!

[@tillyboos]

I

[@CarlScripter]

YOU ARE one of the hardest working duos in show business!!! ^__^

[@carolinehale200]

Andrew Ivan Bell and Vincent Clarke are still alive it is now 2018 and the boys are so strong

[@itstrolltime9499]

WTH are some people talking about?! He doesn't look bad at all. He looks pretty freaking good in this interview.

[@RadioComedyShows]

I lived in Southend, met Vince Clark, Alison Moyet and the Depeche boys often round the pubs, great days

[@gatocatchat]

CHILE LOVES YOU ANDY!!!!

[@golito1977]

I love Andy, he's great !!!

[@MrZmurcht]

have you ever heared Don Henley talking. now thats a deep voice, yet he reaches hights pretty clear. well trained voices along with big talent. shows how pro some are, compared to some others that just collect money on their tours. ive been disappointed alot, but andi is great.

[@clearviewmind]

I'm straight as they come, but I LOVE ANDY BELL!!!!!

[@teleportedfunk]

music of my childhood

[@hawaiidispenser]

I was surprised Andy has such a deep speaking voice and because his singing in Erasure is often so high (in fact, sounding a bit like Yazoo).

[@jarom676]

Andy is 48 now. he was about 21 when he started with Erasure.

[@tase882003]

Wer love you too erasure pls don't forget AUSTRALIA when you tour From SYDNEY

[@robertocize]

he was before Jimmy Sommerville..(hit that perfect beat)by bronsky beat...and other songs....the video is in you tube

[@hawaiidispenser]

Interesting. Could it be that you've only heard his more recent live performances, say in the last 15 years? Or was he also singing an octave lower live back in the '80s?

[@22argentinosarado]

Waiting time Buenos Aires shows Augoust 15 and 16 !!!

[@EinkOLED]

Outstanding talent erasure.

[@Mayo2205]

I wonder which songs andy auditioning for Vince before joing Erasure (Yazoo?, Depeche Mode?) anyone knows?

[@Nightbird.]

He hasn't had plastic surgery..which is why he looks like any normal 49yr old man..and not the twentysomething he was in his vids. Be respectful of everything this man has accomplished..what have YOU done with YOU'RE life that compares to everything he has accomplished in his? =)

[@KOBA971]

Andy! hello from Russia! we love you!Come to Russia and sing for us!

[@Nightbird.]

It's called aging..and not having plastic surgery. He is 49yrs old..and not the twentysomething he was in vids..so give him a break mate!

[@ehnonymouse]

Well, the comment is factual. He was diagnosed in 1998 and went public about it in 2004.

[@joanne-lorraineforsyth5186]

giggle Thats my birthday ;)

[@jaggass]

in the 80's he sounded like alison moyet. now alison moyet sounds andy bell

[@jaggass]

whos the female presenter?

[@OLDMANBADGER]

whats happened his face?

[@quieroirmeanarnia]

andy can´t read music??

[@hawaiidispenser]

True about Lennon. I think Andy still has a greater difference between his speaking and singing voice though.

[@fernandopenaabarca8511]

Erasure For eveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer

[@daveevans2812]

Is that a Safire I see x

[@jaggass]

the female presenter is kate walsh

[@SkywalkerTibor]

Don't you confuse Andy Bell and Jimmy Sommerville?

[@rickycole4061]

some people age well some don't simple as that

[@brianpan6453]

I don't think he has aged well at all but his voice is still golden.

[@robertocize]

bronsky beat....great singer

[@palmkvist100]

He is so swollen in his face? orr ??

[@ardhiya]

Freddy Mercury die young coused by HIV and he was OK..? i love his Song 'always'.

[@SkywalkerTibor]

Oh, sorry.. I never heard that Andy has ever been a real member of The Bronski Beat, and what's more, the Wikipedia told a lie to me about that...

[@israelaspera5293]

Es la que cantaba con tacones rojos

[@LiannaJade19]

Oi don't be slagging andy off he's my cousin he's great so if you dont have anything nice to say, don't say it atall

[@alastairwest5200]

He used to be quite macho...

[@oscarricardoflorezgarcia9597]

vacano

[@MrMikepdx]

Hmmm..Yazoo split '83, Erasure formed '85..

[@JohnnyNatrium]

Doesn't hold a bloody candle to the likes of Freddie Mercury

[@tanyatanya9492]

Not while he's singing opera obviously but he is among the best singers that ever existed not only technically but above all emotionally

[@JohnnyNatrium]

@@tanyatanya9492I think the comment you replied to must've been me replying to someone who made a comparison to Freddie Mercury; with comments that are that old, the original threads have usually disappeared and old replies just appear loosely. It's hard to think back 11 years lol but I can't exactly imagine the frame of mind where I'd just bring up the comparison to FM out of nowhere Just to name someone who was quite a league beyond Andy Bell when it came to his foray into opera (and generally although I appreciate Andy Bell's talent, it's no fluke that Mercury is such a giant, world-renowned artist for probably most of all his singing talent - a status that does dwarf Bell comparatively), but I don't see a point in comparing just like that; It's not like Andy was posturing in this video, claiming something along the lines of him being 'the best at being a pop singer taking a stab at a real operatic project', so he wasn't inviting that, kind of unfair, critical comparison. So it must've been that my comment was a reply to someone else who drew the comparison onto this video's topic.

[@kjaersdalen]

you can say that again.....lol

[@WillScarlet1991]

Loll ! :D :D

[@adriellycordeiro6032]

And his speaking voice doesn't sound gay.

[@Tany984]

1.10 :)

[@musetteanddrums1970]

bass... and not soprano?!? go andy.

[@nateboytwo]

damn the host is friggen HOT !!!!

[@jasonking44]

Looks like he and Vince might have had a domestic argument

[@AVSolucionesInteligentes]

Tiene un aire a Benny Hill!.

[@puretrash09]

Love Andy, but his face has def had some work done to it

[@Nightbird.]

I have perfect vision thank you very much. Don't you think if he had the plastic surgery you claim he had..he wouldn't have those huge bags under his eyes..nor that double chin? He's not Cher for pete's sake. He's obviously wearing makeup..but don't confuse makeup and skincare for plastic surgery. I know many men who take care of their skin and have faces like this. If you think skin that looks like this is plastic surgery..I would hate to see what you consider normal then.

[@loved4onetimeonly]

..he's had his 'face; done why

[@Aeroldoth3]

2:51 omigod, major hottie!

[@WillScarlet1991]

What the hell's up with Andy's face ?!

[@scottqualls7690]

Exhaustion

[@daveevans2812]

X

[@WillScarlet1991]

If you can't see that he's had some sort of surgery, then you're as blind as a bat.

[@FORZAISRAELE]

the face is like a ballon!

[@thatsdavid2u]

Wow! British guys don't age well...

[@rylandcole3850]

Says the steven segal lookalike. You look about 55 kid

[@mtlnascarfan]

David Michael Look in the mirror before you comment on other people's appearances.

[@michaelmckenna7109]

Beauty come from the inside Andy is such a lovely nice guy. You?

[@rolflmaoweeee]

Because age has made him look like a bulldog chewing a wasp.

[@loved4onetimeonly]

botoxed to the max

[@TGNam1]

Botox?

[@ronnyrisse]

see what plastic surgery does...

[@danielpena2726]

The years have not been kind to this man! Too much booze? He looks puffy.

[@amers83]

He's always had a little bit of puffiness under his eyes. I think the medication taken to counteract his HIV has a lot to do with his appearance. Could be wrong. HIV infected people do age more rapidly than non infected people and he's had it since the late 90's.Regardless he's adorable and charming. Love Andy.Forget about how he looks, he should be appreciated for the amazingly talented man he is.

[@KymaticaHealth]

Looks good for 50.

[@amers83]

KymaticaHealth Yes he does.=)

[@grimlund]

Everyone ages. No one gets younger. I am 36 and I am a alcoholic. To me . Andy Bell is a normal guy. He is 50 years old. He looked good when he was about 25. Just like me. I don´t want to look at my self in the mirror now when I´m 36. I hate my self.

[@rylandcole3850]

The aids doesnt help
