Mike Smith, lead singer of Dave Clark Five, was paralyzed from a freak accident. Peter Noone financed and supported Mike’s acquiring a handicapped van and did everything he could do to make Mike’s final years as tolerable as possible. He was really the one big name that stood up to help Mike. My kids loved the DC5 music and corresponded with Mike the final months of his life. Peter Noone is definitely not a no one.

Thank you for your comment. I did not know that Mike Smith was paralyzed from an accident. I was born in 1951 in the US so the DC5, the Beatles, the Stones and of course, Herman and the Hermits were a part of my life. I have been revisiting the music of my youth and am amazed at how talented the musicians of the 1960s and 1970s were. I take time to research the members and learn about their lives. It is sad how many had tragic outcomes despite their early successes. I love knowing that Peter Noone was kind to Mr. Smith. He seems like a truly nice man, untainted by success.

What did Dave Clark do? Nothing? He was supposed to care for his bandmates, he managed them, got rich if not richer than them

@@normatible9795 my understanding is that Dave Clark did little to support Mike in his final years.

Shared a bill with him in 1988. Very talented musician and a very funny man onstage and off and he was very kind to us, a bunch of nobodies. Been a big fan ever since!👍👍👍

I've got a message for Peter Noone. "THANK YOU" for the decades of great music and stories of all the great British bands. Including Herman's Hermits !!

Peter had 5 top ranked singles at 15 years old!!!...great story.

Great singer and a total gentleman to all he came in contact with God bless Peter

Peter Noone is a class act.He's a great musician and entertainer !!!!

awsome...Herman was always one of the good guys and always one of my favorites when I was a teenager, thanks for posting this and I'm glad I found it.

I never realized how good a singer Peter Noone is. I've listened to many of his cover songs, great singer and musician.

When I was a teen, I was in love with Peter Noone & the Hermits. God bless him for being him. Love "there's a hush all over the world" & others too. Thanks for making me a happier young lady. I'm 70 now, ha. Ha. Luv ya. God bless.

He did a really nice job on this song which, incidentally, is one of my favorite Beatles songs.

Mr. Noone was my rock idol since they Hermits were hits on radio back in the '60s. It makes me happy someone like that has persevered, through all the success, without becoming slave to the entrapments, like drugs, and such, over all that time - not one scandal I can think of. An impressive man and talent, IMHO.

This Beatles song brings me back to memories of my grandfather who passed away from cancer a couple years ago. I cry every time I hear this. I miss you Papa! Great job Peter!! Dara

Went to a concert by Peter and his Hermits a couple days ago. Fantastic! Great show! He's funny, great personality, and voice is still good - much better than it was in this video.

About 10 years ago Peter did a show in our out the way little town in Kentucky. It was a small venue so we really got to see and hear. He was a consummate entertainer, a very talented gentleman. A wonderful evening and memory.

Peter did John proud! Liked his story beforehand, Interesting that he knew John's father but John didn't.

A lovely tribute from an ageless gent, the best representative of the British Invasion. Peter Noone.

Sweet peter .. sweet John Lennon.. life is sweet with them

My Heart Throb the gorgeous Peter Noone.

Love you, Peter Noone. . . your voice keeps getting better! Just heard you in Cincinnati at "The Garage" and hope you keep returning!

Peter not only still sounds amazing but look amazing also. nice lad :) xxx

cool guy...great talent

A funny Peter No One event. Me my wife and my mother went to an oldies concert, afterward Peter was giving out autographs. My mother wanted a picture with him but the line was very long. So, she walks over to him, grabs his arm and I snap the picture, Peter says to me 'did you get it' I said yes thank you. I was too star struck to take multiple photos so we got one with Peter with a funny look on his face like whats going on. He is very nice.

Lucky you -- and your mother!

I met Peter Noone once, in of all places, Caroline's Comedy Club in NY. After my set, I saw him seated at the bar and immediately recognized him. I went up to the bar in the seat next to him, ordered my drink, and introduced myself. He was very friendly and affable. I told him I had his albums as a kid, and was a fan, but must confess, the Beatles were my favorite band. Without missing the beat, a big smile came over his face and he said "Yeah, me too. The Beatles were everybody's favorite band" I laughed and asked him if he could clarify a line of the lyrics to No Milk Today for me, which he gladly did, with a smile on his face. Then he looked around he said, "Looks like you comics got your share of good looking ladies too, but everyone seems paired up" I remember thinking, this is Peter Noone, and even with his celebrity, he's currently without the company of a woman, but he definitely was on the lookout for one. With that, he stood up, extended his hand, and said "It was nice to meet you Mike, Cheers". We shook hands and off he went in search of female companionship. I'm sure he wasn't disappointed by nights end. I remember thinking, what a really nice guy, and how refreshing to know that not only was he a very down to earth guy, but he was basically in the same boat as all of us non celebrities in the mating game of life. Though I'm pretty sure his celebrity percervered and he did not go home alone. But who knows. Either way, Very Nice Guy and it was great meeting him.

Thank you Peter for sharing and singing one of my favorite Beatles songs. I plan to have it sung at my funeral along with Let It Be.

Lovely tribute to John Lennon it was like listening to john in the 60s lovely voice Peter your ageless thankyou ❤️😊

Wonderful job. John would be proud.

So very cool a final as I was in a back row spot crossing paths as it were wit my Dad who had an invite to come to this great moment.

God bless him!

One of my favorite songs. Very touching. Thank you.

I went to see what I believed were the real Herman's Hermits and was so disappointed. I cannot understand how their can be 2 bands with the same name.I adored Peter back when he started and just adore him to this day.

I believe there is a little bit misunderstanding here. The band from the 60s and the band now are two different bands, only the drummer is the same from that group that started Herman's Hermits with Peter etc. They sing the same songs, though. In fact bands that starts up and lasts for years and years may get some changes over the years when it comes to the members. Some leaves to do their solo careers and some joins other bands etc.... things like this happends. I'm sorry you were disappointed. Maybe next time you should do a little research before, especially when it comes to bands that have kept going on for so long time as half a century!

Like a Beatles song, I remember every word and nuance of this song and it's a delicious nostalgic and innocent feeling hearing this song again from the guy who made it part of our DNA. Thanks Peter!

Well done here, Peter, that was super.

I met him once and he was a really nice guy. I gave the details on a comment I made on a Wings Of Pegasus analysis video on Herman's Hermits, so I won't go into detail again. However, he was very friendly, approachable, and had a good sense of humor.

Peter Noone was wonderful!

Gosh, I ❤ this song !

Lovely guy ❤

To even get through that song without ballin' is a great accomplishment. Your voice blends good to it Peter...I agree and, I believe John would have liked your cover of it. What's funny these days is we hear Jim Morrison songs in the shopping markets sometimes or in an elevator; I'd read that '78-'79 Lennon actually listened to easy listening and elevator music to inspire him musically while he was a house husband in NYC. baking bread. Who would have thought that!

my favor song...thank you

My favourite Beatles song.

Love it; great story teller.

Great musician and great artist and singer

This video is awesome! Pete is great and I love the way he talks about the Beatles and performs the song, just wonderful! A great tribute, I'm sure John could hear it and loved it ;)

Thanks for posting this, Peter and his mates were my first fav R&R band. Saw them in LA in the 60’s, and have followed since.

Well, that was just 15 years without John...so sad...

God bless you peter x

Great tribute to a legend from a legend 😎

Outstanding!

Wow - at the beginning of the song he sounded like John - I got a chill. I miss John.

Lovely man, he really loved John, and I am sure John loved him. Just saying, I saw Peter noone's play at papermill playhouse, "my own British invasion", it was the best show! Absolutely Fantastic! Loved it! Should come to Broadway I hope! Love to Peter, wendy

Beautiful

So sweet xo

He's fantastic 🇦🇺

Sense of humor. The beginnig of travelling a good life.

Love this song and Peter Noone, I have always thought that when my time on earth is over this would be a great song at my lifes celebration to tell anyone who is there exactly how much they were loved by me. though I still have many years to go.

No one, you get the sodas and I will get the Bacardi's. LOL

If Peter Noon or his music doesn't make you feel better, you may have some serious issues.

You can't really fake class and Peter doesn't need to-he has plenty!
