I first watched this 2 years ago and i felt so sad for him, his honest frank and obviously painful look back over his life is very emotional. He was the most talented gifted man who had the voice of a angel , and looks to die for, he could play ant instrument and wrote many amazing songs. I feel so sad that he had a tormented life and had resorted to drinking to take the pain away, he did not deserve to die so young and i miss him every day . He was such a wonderful kind soul with so much respect for everyone. Please play his music and keep his legacy alive he was and alway's will be a great super star .xxxx

Rose Petal .... definitely baring his soul, being straight-up honest, you can't ask for any more than that. He cared about people he wanted to help people. But he needed somebody to help him. I hope his ex-wife is happy with all of his money now, after she ruined David mentally and emotionally. He had a really tough life, and I am in tears as I type this. Rest in peace dear David. We will never forget you and your songs will live on forever.

What a graceful, honest man. I'm so sorry there was so much pain in his life.

I love old fashion people, they are getting rarer and rarer. This was a true true legend, a guy you can look at these old photos and see the old fashion clothes that if you were a kid growing up in the 70s you'd understand. But this is one of the last of the old style guys, from days of times that will never be again. But to David Cassidy I'm so sorry for you buddy, I lost 2 of my best friends within 6 months of each other because of Alcohol. Thank you for being an honest old fashioned spirit. You are in Heaven now, I pray god has you with my old buddies. You were and always will be someone I have always loved and watching this I have more admiration for you than I can ever explain.

It is a shame he wouldn't listen to his family or friends which I believe to this day, he never took their advice to get help. He thought he could do it on his own but he proved wrong. He was a disaster looking for a place to happen. BTW, he is no one to look up to anymore. He had everything to enjoy a full and joyful life but he threw it all away.

A very moving and honest interview. David Cassidy was very courageous to open himself up so publicly in this way.

Things went awful for him. Alcohol is horrific along with the Hollywood thing. It created such a mess in his mind. He should have been in therapy from the Partridge days. Even then who knows. I am going to try to think of his early life and forget all this morbid viewing I watched.

I think were cursed by generational passing down of pain from all the pain that took place in Ireland over the centuries like the potato famines, being treated like garbage by the the English along with the Catholic church keeping people down and subservient and abused. I think alcohol was a way to numb the pain of people who can't be bothered with your feelings because survival is at stake. I watch a lot of Dr. Gabor Mate's videos on addiction and childhood trauma and or abuse and his take is basically people trying to numb the pain from that and it comes in all different forms not just drugs and alcohol but shopping,sex, internet, tv, food etc. My parents had serious issues and so di their parents and I'm sure the ones before them as well and alcohol was the easiest substance to numb that pain out.

I saw this interview for the first time Mid or late October 2015 while I was sharing a dorm for a few days with little other to do than watch old movies or sit-coms on my android tablet and I happened to come across and watch this interview and it was so heartbreaking . I have not gotten over it yet. And as I said in a previous post, there are pother problems in the world . David Cassidy is just another celeberty who is dealing with a fall from early stardom . As his own stepmother said, he is a troubled man. There are so many troubled people on the planet, yet I am hoping that David Cassidy pulls through. He would be an inspiration for others dealing with alcoholism. Not everyone likes, or liked him. The same with every individual. I for one find it very sad that apparently he may have inherited the bi- polar issues of his father and/or the dementia issues of his biological mother. I don't know.

He was raised by his Christian grandparents and went to church. He was always the little man being strong for first his struggling parents and their broken marriage, then as a teen crush for millions of girls, then as a tool for his managers and their exploitation of his name and image for little return, his loss of his true identity and control of it, his constant unselfishness, lead him in the end to alcohol to de-stress and it ultimately was part of his demise.

His battle with alcoholism is well documented and addressed in this absorbing interview but also reveals his work ethic and his initial desire to succeed in acting although his career eventually took him in another direction. Which is revealing in itself as he was an actor who then found world success as a recording and live music artist. Over the years you get well known artists who want to find a success as actors and visa versa but rarely is this achieved, well David Cassidy actually achieved both. In a perfect world another interview of this calibre talking solely about his music career retrospectively would have been fascinating.

The first comments you make about DC's musical talent & achievements are right on ! And that is why he deserves to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Sign the petition for this if you already haven't. Beyond that, he seemed to have a good heart & his great music & the joy it gave us will endure, even if his life could not, unfortunately.

We all lose our way sometimes. Life is very fragile. David Cassidy was an inspiration. He had so much charisma, talent and was such a lovely human being. My heart bleeds for him. When you look back at his life and how much he achieved at such a young age you think wow if I could achieve a fifth of all that. I love you David with all my heart. I miss you and like thousands of other heart broken fans will never ever forget you. Thank you for bringing joy and happiness into lots of people’s lives. People can write what they like nobody can ever take away the beautiful human being you was. I know I love you. Chris c x look after him god he is very special.

[@sandrapen9144]

Alcohol is the most harmful drug on earth! I've seen it wreck so many wonderful people! I hope David can stop drinking! I love him!

Sandra Pen In the 1990s So Much press was given to the demons of Booze but today people act like its a Godsend becuase eveyone is so stressed out all of the time. Whats wrong with this picture? 🤐

[@gregmarshall2513]

Agreed , it destroyed my relationship my partner was and probably still is drink dependent .

[@francescaruby1150]

David is incredibly sad. He is often fighting back tears. I think he is was terribly lonely in his final days. It breaks your heart to see what happened to my teenage idol.

Keith Partridge was fiction, bust David Cassidy was a true man and a star! He will always be missed.

[@danar4222]

David was an amazing person. Aside from his problems...he was a huge heart...this breaks my heart. The alcohol destroyed him...such a shame. Rest In Peace baby...I hope to meet you in heaven when it's my turn.. ❤️

[@neilouellette3004]

His father actor Jack Cassidy was an alcoholic. Which caused a lot of pain to David and the rest of his well known family. He's finally being honest about his personal pain with alcohol. That is the utmost important step for the long road ahead of him. Good luck Dave and i hope you get there and get well.

Alcoholic fathers and step fathers have seriously deprecated the last few generations.

@@zolikubi I'm thinking it goes a lot further back than the last few generations.

[@patriciaabidi4481]

A lovely soul who gave us much joy and had such a talent R.I.P.David ❤️❤️❤️

[@ninacipriano9836]

We make the stars that we love demigods. But they are mortals like us. My heart breaks for him but he should know that he brought this lady so much joy with his music!!!

[@jeffreybiscoe6]

Nina Cipriano totally agree I watched the police treat him like he was being aggressive ( he was not just intoxicated) instead of saying your under arrest they trick him to put his hands behind his back..Very sad.

[@angelaosiecki7230]

no more pain with his creater god always loved you rest in peace.

[@Geritopia]

This interview was a bad idea. Everything is so raw and David seems to be writhing in shame. He's distraught. It veers from being a straight interview and becomes fodder for prurient interest. 5 weeks out from ongoing rehab and a pending divorce. It's just too much. Having said that, it puts *everything* into perspective but at a huge cost.

[@marydracos7371]

He is so honest. He’s not a fake. He tells it like it is. So sad when I heard the news of his passing

[@markdavis1611]

Hi Mary

[@j1bc]

Cassidy always was a genuine kinda guy much more natural than the other similar acts around at the time, and with a great voice too

[@terencehennegan1439]

A great actor, great entertainer, great singer, great musician and a good hearted, decent authentic humble man.

[@royal-tea7543]

What a sweet, beautiful picture of David with his Mom.

[@lisabrennan2883]

I have LOVED David Cassidy from way back and STILL DO!

Hi Lisa
