(Is This The Way To) Amarillo | Peter Kay Featuring Tony Christie

Here is the celebrity filled number 1 single for comic relief.
Lyrics
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
When the day is dawnin'
On a Texas Sunday mornin'
How I long to be there
With Marie who's waitin' for me there
Ev'ry lonely city where I hang my hat
Ain't as half as pretty as where my baby's at
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Ev'ry night I've been huggin' my pillow
Dreamin' dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weepin' like a willow
Cryin' over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me
There's a church bell ringin'
Hear the sound of joy that it's singin'
For the sweet Maria
And the guy who's comin' to see her
Just beyond the highway
there's an open plain
And it keeps me goin'
Through the wind and rain
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Ev'ry night I've been huggin' my pillow
Dreamin' dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weepin' like a willow
Cryin' over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me

I think this edit is better than the 'cropping' version. Just looks too obvious. Also sad to see how many people in this are no longer with us, Anne Kirkbride, Keith Harris, Jim Bowen, Geoffrey Hayes and Ronnie Corbett, . RIP to them all.

This was my favourite song back when I was 12. I remember being so happy when it kept being number 1 in the charts for like 2 months. The quality of this video is amazing considering this was 2005. It's a massive difference between the other video that was uploaded around then. Glad they got rid of paedo but poor Sally Lindsay also got cut because of it

[@Benratbag1997]

This brings back memories and this was my first introduction to Peter Kay, what a Legend. I’m glad they edited out You-Know-Who (But poor Sally Lindsay) and make a version we can all enjoy. Rest In Peace to the people who appeared in the video that have passed - Anne Kirkbride, Keith Harris, Jim Bowen, Geoffrey Hayes, Ronnie Corbett and Sir Michael Parkinson 🕊️

Kind of a shame the Tony Christie cameo happens too early, but the guy he replaces is probably better unmentioned given what he did was illegal at the time he did it.

If only Peter Kay sung the vocals for released Single Back in 2005, that would be awesome as fun fact Peter Kay may be in the music video but the song vocals was re-released from Tony Christie then re-recorded, Peter Kay can sing as we seen as Geraldine McQueen, Britain's Got the Pop Factor. and other project, i would love to see Peter Kay record the song vocals release in 2023! and Get it out for Christmas, Could Peter Kay Get #1 to (Is This The Way To) Amarillo for Christmas #1 there is time. and Stop Ladbaby.
