Jimmy Osmond - Penny Lane

[@Peggy-h5r]

This is the performance that brought Jimmy onto my radar. He has been my crush ever since. So happy he has been recovering from his massive 2018 stroke. Loved seeing his gorgeous smile in the wedding videos of both of his girls. Sophia has now made him a grandpa! #foreverajimmyfan

[@arinco6944]

This song is sung so perfectly by Jimmy Osmond.

[@pduffy421]

I've never forgotten this performance from when it was first shown on TV in Britain in the early 80's. Fame movie and early series were so good.

[@kingkpin100]

I agree hahaha saw it when I was a kid in Israel though.

Yup

[@livingintongues]

I went looking for this song, when I remembered Fame . But now I can't find fame the series anywhere ? Anyone know where it is ?

[@robertwalker9130]

Most memorable piece of the entire series!

[@giahlininger9407]

What a Lad , Jimmy Osmond , shows his , British , roots --- amazing and , so talented .🇺🇸🇬🇧 🙏

[@andrealuvshouse]

I was a huge fan of Fame; both the TV show and the movie. I don’t remember Jimmy being on the TV show! I’ll have to rewatch this! It’s really good.

[@doreen30.09.]

I feel very old when i Watch this. I was Seven when i watched Fame for the First time and i love it.

[@SJ47668]

After all these years - I just noticed that Mr Shorofsky - the music teacher - is tapping along out of beat. 😮

[@BelindaTomlinson-i2z]

I used to watch Fame, but not all of the time, so I missed this episode. If I knew that Jimmy was going to be on the show, I would have watched it. It's the same with Love Boat. I watched it every week, so I saw the episode when Donny was on the show, but missed the episode with Marie

[@arinco6944]

Jimmy Osmond is so cute talented. I didn't know he was in Fame.

[@capacola262743]

he only did this one episode. his character was supposed to be mentally retarded and they were trying to mainstream him without telling anyone (seriously) it didn't work out and he went back to his "special" school.

[@APST1970]

I remember this episode and scene because of the song, didn’t know it was Jimmy Osmond then.

[@ameliaerin1544]

Just a guest spot! He never got the recognition he deserved!🙄

[@itsjemmabond]

​@Peggy I was about to post the exact same thing!

[@MandaWard71]

Jimmy certainly holds back at the beginning but as he gets into the song, he really does belt it out. Excellent performance of keeping within character 👏 👌 ❤❤❤❤

[@Mary-po4ti]

Proper cute. So sad he had A stroke. BEAUTIFUL guy❤❤❤❤❤

[@FreddyWSmithJr]

That was Great, I do remember seeing this episode back in day when I use to watch this show!! It was a a true joy to watch and hear Jimmy sing 🎶 on the show ( Fame !!! ) .

[@jessbcausee1131]

One of my favorite scenes in the series!

[@rialloyd1670]

I loved this performance. Jimmy really showed how talented he is. I loved Fame and he became a favorite, thanks for this. ❤

[@jamesewanchook2276]

props to the pianist!

[@jjflix79]

wow saw this so many years ago on TV....I remember hearing "another version" of this song a few years later and thought ..."that's the song little Jimmy Osmond was singing on Fame"

[@kingkpin100]

Hahahaha did you hear the original song?😂

nailed it, its not quite british but its a very nice clean performance of the song its sung how its supposed to no drawing it out or slowing it down or adding wacky sounds to it like they do to old songs today when remaking

[@itsjemmabond]

Before Rachel Berry, there was Coco Hernandez.

[@ilahildasissac1943]

I liked Fame back then.

[@markcraig9889]

In the two episodes of Fame in which he guest-starred, his character, a brilliant singer, was autistic 👍

[@cherylmonae1987]

Jimmy’s voice got better as he got older

no your hearing just got worse

Is that MTV VJ Mark Goodman on the piano?

Coco was very jalous now she has to share the fame

This was simultaneously the most annoying and satisfying 80s TV series

Jimmy buscando la Fama

[@benjaminclasper9355]

Was he acting?

[@benjaminclasper9355]

But was he meant to be as himself in this or was he playing a character role?

[@antonycornell6284]

IIRC playing a kid with some handicap.

[@itsjemmabond]

He was playing a character called Troy, a kid with learning difficulties who had been 'mainstreamed' into the NYSA. Bruno was a really supportive friend in this episode.

[@benclasper2883]

He looks so nervous in this.

[@no288]

Thats part of his character

What’s the point?

What’s the point? It’s one of the greatest songs of time. That’s enough point. Do your homework man, you’ll get it.

[@mrsTraveller64]

He looked so much like his brother Merrill! But when was he ever this skinny???

[@benjaminclasper9355]

He looks nervous at the beginning.

[@Greg-mh5zn]

It was because the character he played in the show In real life he wasn't nervous

[@michaelross2500]

Jimmy and Merrill sure look alike
