🔴 David Cassidy...interview & 'Then I'll Be Someone' (The Russell Harty Show 1976) !!

[@tammyclay62]

No one had a better shag haircut than David Cassidy. He was probably one of the reasons that the shag was so popular in the 70's.

[@jenniferdaniel1104]

He WAS the reason for the shag haircut. To this day, my friends and I still say, " the David Cassidy haircut." I wish it would come back in style. He was so beautiful!! We all miss you, David, and I'll never forget the day you held my face with your hands as you sweetly kissed me and told me I was beautiful. It was the most romantic kiss I've ever had.❤ ❤

[@wandafrench5410]

David is probably the only man I'd ever describe as BEAUTIFUL, I could listen to that voice all day

[@Pussycatfeathers]

Hes adorable, probably one of the best looking men alive at the time, hard to take your eyes off him and his whole persona is just so attractive

[@christinerogers8734]

100% agree

[@jaynecrawford7043]

He was just gorgeous❤

[@mandylangford2687]

makes me sad to watch this now. I was a screaming teenage DC fan and still am (though not screaming!). This reveals a lot of his vulnerability which we didnt see back in the day. He was misrepresented and mismanaged. He never got over the loss of his Dad. I think he got lost somewhere along the way and that is really sad. Great talent, gorgeous man but, moreover, lovely lovely human being. God Bless you Mr David Cassidy and thanks for all the joy youve brought into my life.... and now (sadly) the memories you left. I Cherish them. xx

[@darnabedwell2115]

The British loved David Cassidy like he was their own son. He knew it too; notice how he sometimes uses their accent. But who didn't love him. Full of charisma, charm, talent and intelligence. He seemed light years ahead of the rest of us; acquiring so much so early in life. And although he was exploited like many artist; he managed to maintain a prosperous life throughout. Although the end was rough for him; divorce and drinking. I just want to remember him like this; young and fabulously beautiful! RIP Sweet David. 💖🌹💖

[@Lori-lp6uc]

This interview is bittersweet. He never got to retire and live comfortably on an island. His last days were filled with physical, mental, and emotional pain. My heart breaks when I see his final interviews and performances. So broken. He even had to perform once in a cast.🥺😥 This song personifies his life.

[@rubytownsend3643]

David was such a beautiful sexy man. His voice was soft and just perfect for the songs that he sang. Rest In Peace David. We love you always.

[@tulipacjrocha]

He was just a magical dream. A masterpiece.

[@christymarie3747]

Taking a break from the news and covid and watching as many David Cassidy videos I can find to bring back the calm in my soul I once had as a teen. I still love you David and missing you in 2021 and the world I once lived in.......

[@LoriB5]

David Cassidy is (I can't say "was" ) the most beautiful man EVER. NO ONE will ever replace him.

[@lolver3670]

I have watched a lot of David Cassidy these last few months. This by far, is him in my eyes at his most beautiful. He is mesmerising. ❤

[@pamoouru]

Such a sensitive soul. He deserved a better journey in this world. RIP

[@judyafordc]

Absolutely.

[@susanmarks601]

Again this is amazing thanks to all who put these videos of david on there are no words that can Express the sadness of david no longer being with us here put all of us that keep his memory alive in his music plays and shows will keep him close to us I listen every day to him I have said before a lot of fame very quick in his life wish he had just slowed down but he was with us for awhile time goes by too fast so all of us will keep him close forever

[@pamelajj8082]

[@johnmulder2325]

all ways been a fan, all ways will be.

[@TheStar_119]

I’m so drawn to this incredibly beautiful man 50 years later. My god is he gorgeous. I doubt he understood how captivatingly handsome and sexy he was. Watching and hearing him speak and perform is blissful. Amazingly talented and extraordinarily beautiful sexy man❤️❤️❤️ love and miss you David Cassidy, no doubt the angels are rejoicing in your presence.

[@kenni123064]

The only and “Original American Idol “! What a persona and talent! The song performance is phenomenal and one of kind! David Cassidy has such an “Aurora” about him and a very special one of a kind voice! Thank you for sharing this!

[@marierobinson7226]

David was the total package The looks, his voice, & so much charisma. Fabulous in every way!! Rest in sweet beautiful peace❤ ❤ I miss you 😢

[@mollypopp2468]

David was magic. It seemed he could do it all, and he did it so well. His passing left a big hole in my heart and I will miss him for the rest of my life. Beautiful, talented, extremely smart man.

[@randeepkaur3814]

Lovely guy. So under represented and misunderstood by the music industry. A real talented music genius. Rest in peace with the angels.

[@tess5747]

He is so gorgeous in this interview. Intelligent and articulate and beautiful.

[@123Rockchild]

David Cassidy had so much "natural" charm and easiness about himself...even though he obviously got extremely burnt-out during that 4-year craziness and it a real number on him. That smile of his just makes me smile.

[@elissaschornstein9399]

David a truly beautiful human being. Beautiful to look at and so intelligent. Such a shame he didn't stay well and healthy. RIP. Sweet lovely man.

[@sylvias4899]

As a pre teen who got to see David in concert I was over the moon. Of course not knowing then that while he was bringing me happiness he was himself very unhappy. Now as an adult I understand but I still would like to thank David for all the joy he brought me. Always and forever a fan. Rest in Peace Mr. Cassidy.

[@Swakara1]

Such a heartthrob, how could you not fall in love with him: that boyish charm & good looks, the spring in his step, that laugh and that voice soft as velvet!

[@lawrencelike6125]

He was an incredible person. I first met David in Las Vegas. We had mutual friends. It was 23 years ago at the MGM. So talented. So versatile. A true tragedy. We both talked about not worrying our life away. Great human. 👍

[@jinnybergan8978]

He is adorable, he came out bouncing and happy, like a little boy.

[@pleiadian13]

PS I would like to say politely, he was absolute perfection and the balance between his male and female side was awe-inspiring. So gentle and soft yet what a determined and masculine intention. I adored him and still do, I have to moderate my intake because he has a profound affect no matter what state he’s in or his age. A truly complex being, a little bit of a lad and a lot of saint that I’ve rarely seen too!

[@tracybrien5776]

pleiadian13 well said

[@christelbrown2349]

Very well said!

[@skittles3025]

he was beautiful inside and out. rest in peace.

[@originaldw]

David cassidy had the most generous soulful eyes ever they just sparkled 😍

[@donnacavallaro9220]

handsome as hell

[@123Rockchild]

It's pretty apparent the schedule and fame really did a number on Cassidy. He seems like such a good soul.

[@MarCanada35]

David please know we love you as you are - not a manufactured character. I hold you so dear - you stayed true to yourself. You will always be a true artist and unique talent

[@58jennypenny]

just look at him, had you ever seen anyone so beautiful.

[@Kensington2714]

No. And doubt I ever will. 😢

[@THENEONARCADE21]

​@@Kensington2714No I never have. Oh god, David Was So Gorgeous !!!! 💋💋💋💋💋🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

His adorable smile and legacy will never be forgotten.David was one of a kind.Gone too soon !

[@yvonnesheridan2414]

Beautiful person inside and out,that's why we loved him and never stopped.

[@headbangingmama8907]

David Cassidy had the most beautiful mesmerizing eyes I've ever seen! Sometimes they look blue and other times they look green. His eyes and heart shaped beautiful face was always what caught my attention the most! Will miss you forever 💞❤️. God rest your soul David. What a marvelous person you were and very genuine!! R.I.P. DC!!! 😘💕

[@mia2883]

To see his last concert in NY breaks my heart again and again... Horrible to see this iconic boy disappear 🥲

[@rainbowsend6310]

My goodness , he's so damn beautiful to look at!

[@shonnahall8263]

Sandra Ruckel , I will never get tired of looking at him or listening to him speak!

[@RaechelleBennett782]

Thank you for this video! I believe it is one of his best interviews to bring his case to light. Well done! I'm learning more poignant interesting facts about this brilliant musician now that he's passed on, which is so sad. I've been David's fan since the beginning and there a huge gaps in between the years since he bowed out for awhile. Such an interesting artist and very well grounded. Looking back, he maintained that same direction and philosophy throughout his life. He was true to his nature and his goals as an artist which says a lot about him--that he was genuine, not flighty at all. I believe it took great courage to remove himself and regain his true identity and passion as an artist. I guess that is why he remained successful, and he did that his own way. He said many times it was never about the money. In fact, He was very against exploitation from early on in his career and showed as a good role model for upcoming artists. A true fan would appreciate that and allow David to grow and to reveal his true persona--and my goodness, wasn't it worth it? To me it sure was. Such a beautiful human being that I'm missing the loss of, passing at such an early age. His legacy lives on in his fans. I hope he'll be inducted in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. I really do believe he's earned it. Such a brilliant musician. Rest in peace sweet David. 💙❤🎶

[@vaniadefranceschi973]

Such a beautiful man with a soft and pleasant voice. David has been the first love of thousands of girls around the world, including myself. So sad he's gone, but we will always remember and love him. He will never be forgotten! 💔💖

just discovered this..how very charming! david was so very talented...and only he can make the piano sound so rock n roll! rest in peace beautiful man.

[@shyman99]

Gorgeous song that is too good to be unreleased. Just like so many of those unreleased gems from the TV show. It's time for them to be released and set free just like David is now.

[@susanbelcher5490]

He was so unhappy. My heart bleeds for him. R. I. P. Sweet man. Sleep with the angels!!

[@mags199]

Not seen this before, what a great artist and sweet person (DC)

[@Swakara1]

[@promisekept12]

I will always LOVE David Cassidy... sad he left earth early. His face and his voice -- both singing and talking-- are just beautiful!!

[@sallykirshan6800]

Love his voice...what a beautiful man.

[@laurieeby7834]

I have no idea why he didn't record that song! Absolutely beautiful! Showing off his talent! Exquisite!!!

[@zzzap6013]

Nostalgia at its fullest: the most beautiful and most handsome man for me with a unique singing voice

[@fhahn4918]

I never met him and just really became interested in him since his death. After reading his books, buying CDs, listening to every interview that I can find on KZbin and spending hours viewing, thousands of his pictures on Pinterest, I am completely infatuated. He's absolutely mesmerizing. David "I know I Love you".

[@CherishDavidCassidy]

Thx for the lovely comment ...enjoy the memories and his wonderful music ♥

[@shonnahall8263]

Fleta Hahn, I have had the exact same experience. I was not a fan until after his death. What a beautiful man he was, inside and out.

[@mags199]

Welcome to the club

[@js-nr4wc]

Hi Fleta I feel like you didnt really follow or know much of David,s career as didnt live in States n never heard much after TPF..he was so talented n articulate in most of his interviews,I'm like you have to find out more n more about him. I just wish he found love n peace in his life ,rather than turn to alcohol for his loneliness. As he stated he wanted to show who David Cassidy the person was ,not the image ppl had of him. David Cassidy the person was loved by many fans ...😁😁

[@jeanmalcolm8372]

Fleta Hahn liked him since partridge family that was my high school days

[@angiesmith8040]

So very handsome. ❤❤X x

[@debbyhotton413]

i love him playing the piano

what a beautiful charming man ... R.I.P. David

[@bridgetd7390]

David Cassidy, you were so beautiful and your voice unique. So unforgettable... RIP

[@edwardcasey2301]

David Cassidy was a real star, and a fantastic singer of great songs.

[@robyndowney2233]

I know this is a long time ago and David Cassidy has passed away but what is it about British media, where they don't seem to be satisfied with the subject's answer. I don't know how many times Harty went over the same question, after it was answered more than satisfactorily the first time. He got his answer! What was it about the answer didn't he understand. They do the same to other celebs still today. As a journalist, you ask the question in the way that the person is more likely to answer it, instead of asking the same question over and over again to badger them. David Cassidy was my teenage crush too. As others have mentioned here. He was a phenomenon that has never been seen since and I doubt will ever be seen again. A sad end for a great, talented man. RIP David.

[@sonyahartley6320]

He's beautiful here love his spirit and felt so sad for all he went through

[@adrienneshelley4696]

life is just too beautiful to spend it all alone.xx

[@ricki21225]

What a beautiful smile he had.....

[@lindamoore3729]

Yes, the most attractive feature he had! Then again his eyes and hair and the way he moved weren't bad either! 🤗

[@alicew3563]

Such a great interview, one of the best I've seen with DC, honest and sincere. The interviewer is great and a real pro, trying to dig a bit deeper than most and he sets the tone with both depth and humour. I am also impressed by the maturity DC shows, he's only 26 here, but yet he seems to answer in a thoughful way and is very well articulated. Its such a loss he's now gone.

[@melaniewalker5226]

I'm quite sure Russell harty fancied the pants off of him, lol.I remember this interview all those years ago. I live in the UK and got sat down with a cup of tea and watched it, and it was incredible!

[@EVH4EVAH]

David was my 1st concert and 1st Love. The girls were screaming so loud & I just wanted to hear him sing sing 🎶 sing. His music kept my spirit up during a harsh childhood. A wonderful talented, beautiful, & magnetic Man. RIP Sweet One. Much Love to all David touched💜💯💣

[@julieyoutu]

You’re here six days ago and I’m here on Friday March 31 reminiscing about watching the Partridge Family after homework 🤭🤭🤭❣️🎶🤌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@backtoback4452]

one of my most favorite songs and i love that it's written by him (and 2 others). :) love and miss David so much!

[@Jeannine2007]

Wow! What an insight to a very articulate, deep, sensitive, funny David as a young man (26). This interview has helped me understand the man he was and the man he came to be in later life. There was so much more to him and his talent than just a pretty face. Thank you so much for uploading this interview, I enjoyed it very much xx

[@dianecooper6854]

What a lovely song, there seems to be a lot of unreleased music of David Cassidy. Perhaps someone like his producer Craig could gather it together and make a tribute of unreleased material, think his fans who have followed him for 47 years and his recent fans would appreciative. RIP

[@alicew3563]

Diane Cooper I so agree with you. There is a bunch of unreleased songs that are really really so great, and it would be such a shame if it never got out there. I think also the massive photo material that obviously exists could for example be perfect to use for a "coffee table book" (by the Henry Dilz photographer?) or such. I am sure there would be a huge interest, and then an idea would be (jumping way ahead, I know..) perhaps some percentage of the profit of it all could go to the Alzheimer fund that DC worked with, just a thought..

[@LisaMcase59]

Its breathtaking how gorgeous he was !No other man compares to him

[@kellyhughart9600]

I was only 2 years old when The Partridge Family debuted in September of 1970, so naturally, I missed out on Cassidymania. But I became a fan later in 1974 after the show was cancelled, and reruns we're being shown on weekday afternoons. Better late than never, right? I was 6 years old and in the first grade when I saw The Partridge Family for the first time, and I thought David Cassidy was really cute! In fact, he was the first cute boy I ever saw on TV. If I had been a teenage girl in the 70's, instead of a little girl, I know I would've seen David in concert in the early 70's and would've had David Cassidy posters on my bedroom wall. The first time I saw David in person was in 1996. It was his EFX show in Las Vegas. I saw him in concert twice, first in 2003, then in 2007. The first time I saw him in concert, he looked right at me and took hold of my hand while singing "No Bridge I Wouldn't Cross!" I'll never forget that special moment! My one regret, is that I never got to meet him. You don't have to be a Baby Boomer to love David Cassidy. We Generation Xers love him too! I love this interview. David seemed genuinely sweet and down-to-Earth. He was intelligent, had a great sense of humor, and I love his smile and laugh! And his voice was like velvet! David Cassidy had one of those voices you immediately recognize, whether he was talking or singing. He was one of a kind.

[@pam164]

He was so lovely looking i was madly in love with him from about 13 years old posters on walls mad about him. Im 57 now and if i was young now would still fancy him like mad. Loved his music too

[@taaffeitec.969]

Thank you for posting this video - I had never seen the performance of this song before, which is really beautiful. I think David Cassidy was so underappreciated as a musician. It was as if his physical beauty and charisma eclipsed that talent and there was no way to escape it.

[@dougfogarty9111]

He was a good looking young man in his day no doubt about it and he lived life to the fullest I hope that he found the Lord rip.

[@kellyhughart9600]

He did. I heard that when David was in the hospital, his loved ones were there with him, including his nephew, Jack, who is Patrick Cassidy's son. Jack is a devout Christian, and a Contemporary Christian music artist. You may have seen him as a contestant on "The Voice." Before David passed away, Jack led him to Christ. David repented of his sins and received Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Being a Christian myself, I'm comforted knowing that David is in Heaven. I miss him like crazy, but at the same time, I'm glad he's at peace.

[@mia2883]

Here again. Love this man unconditionally, forever in my heart. R.i.P. dear David. 💕

Beautiful man to look at with charisma and talent ..just watched this after not seeing it for while and very cute how he looked like he was blushing just after the pimple comment ...such a sense of humour ..may he be happy ,have found peace and love ...see ya in next life .xo

[@ellierose6]

He was my first love too and I was wondering why I never saw him in concert or knew the extent of the craze like everyone else here but I was 9 when the show ended. Ha. His voice and natural way of communicating are hard to replicate: his fame was not just feathered hair and marketing.

[@viickidameral7468]

David’s 26 years old in this interview but he looks 18 years old

[@lindajones2146]

AWWWWW BLESS HIS HEART

[@TweetyL44]

He says "Ya know" a lot. I hear it in every interview, and it rolls off his tongue so beautifully. It sounds breathy and sexy.

[@stripedshirts]

anything he says, sounds sexy.

[@gaysy1st]

Yes & I love the way he say etcetera. It's so clear & I keep replaying it. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

[@LOVEisBLUE-k9j]

@@gaysy1st Another singer who had a lovely speaking voice & said 'etcetera' often in interviews was Billy Fury. I was reminded of this as soon as I heard David say it. Both handsome & talented & sadly, both now passed.

[@stripedshirts]

Damn. what other guy in the '70's were as unique and beautiful as him? Well before all the Brad Pitts, the George Clooneys, Ryan Goslings, etc., there was 1 David Cassidy.

[@AniWatX]

Great interview. David reveals himself in a way that I've rarely seen him do. Credit to Russell Harty, such a brilliant interviewer. Both sadly missed.

[@andmythreeboys]

Love him, miss him...how is it possible that he is gone? We love you David

[@carolwalker1450]

This was a very good interview,he was allowed to say what he wanted to say,he was very honest with his answers. It was lovely hearing his soft speaking voice,seeing his beautiful smile,and that laugh,he had a really infectious laugh that made you laugh with him! Rest peacefully gorgeous David.

[@heartstrings7814]

David is so incredibly gorgeous here, he is actually " Very Pretty". Could easily pass for a girl from neck up. No make up , earrings or cosmetic surgery needed!! He was that damn naturally gorgeous!!!!!

[@Callmethebreeze902]

Love this ❤. RIP. You are missed and loved.

[@KateStrongHealer]

He's so perceptive and articulate. There's no way I had his vocabulary and insight into life that he had at his age.

[@mia2883]

Well he was already a so-called „old soul“ back then. 💕

[@TweetyL44]

It doesn't get any better than him, he was the whole package. It's too bad people didn't see beyond the pretty face, and the money he could make them.

[@tameramares5785]

He looks so amazingly handsome here!! Hurts bad because his last few months of his life he was almost unrecognizable as DC and was such a sad and lonely person. His life breaks my heart because he never got a chance to really just be "DAVID " Almost all of his interviews after PF, he talks about how he "lost himself "😢. Although he loved doing the PF, i believe he had regrets with it too. You're so missed David 😢😢❤

[@christinerogers8734]

I could only say thank you to him for I was so in shock and he said you are welcome in his soft voice! I watched him walk away with his wife Sue afterwards with his hand on her back at Saratoga Racetrack.
