This show was SO much better than X-Factor!! I remember the whole family watchin' this show, then Catchphrase and then Michael Barrymore's 'My kind of people'. They were the good ol' days! Ha
@Pugna I hear ya, but, it’s because of shows like X-Factor that shows like this no longer exist! I remember as a kid thinking it was some kind of magic when they walk through the door and walk straight back out in full make up! Haha but wow, I made this comment 7 years ago!! 😂😂
Me and my dad were literally just discussing this 😁 Our Saturday nights in. My sis and me didn't want to go out, we looked forward to spending the evening in with the rents. Our night started with Big Break, then Generation Game, onto Noel's House Party and finished with Stars in their Eyes or Casualty. We have literally just decided to do a rerun of the classics over Christmas. Have a makeshift "Saturday night in" watching tele....those were the days. None of this Love Island or Kardashian rubbish. ☺️☺️
@@gemmahancy Ah Noels house party!! Forgot about that! Classic! Yeah, I’ve never watched love island or kardashians and have no desire too! Certainly don’t make ‘em like they used to!
I love how people are commenting as if this was a professional singing competition. For goodness sake, this is a show where you can go on and pretend to be your favorite artist and have some fun. I think this guy does a pretty decent job and i give him credit for even getting up there to begin with so please just stop all the hate, it is not worth it in the end. Hating on people for having fun and doing this shows what kind of human you are. Some of these people are actually pretty good.
Sadie Marchant I wouldn't say I sang great, could certainly do better when I wasn't nervous! Some people on here seem to have been brought up in the X Factor culture thinking everyone on TH-cam should be world class! Thanks for the positive comments x
I used to remember Stars In Their Eyes back in the 90s - such happy and innocent times. The show itself reflects that and much more of a nice and kind version of X Factor and BGT.
Someone was asking why i didn't do something off Be Here Now...answer...because it was recorded in November 1996 and aired in May 1997 before the release of Be Here Now. 😀
What is it with the haters on here? This was 20 years ago a very different time before X factor, pop idol and TH-cam. This show was a bit cheesy sure but that was the fun of it. You sound good too dude 👍🏻.
What haters??? I have just scrolled down the comments and they are all positive. I was going to leave a negative one but I don't think I will bother now.
I actually think it's good. He doesn't have Liam's tone or power but he still has a decent singing voice. Just needed rasp. I thought he had good presence.
I was inside once and I tried to arrange a inter prison singing comp called " Bars in their eyes" or X con factor... Neither of them sold unfortunately!
Get over it haters. This was fucking 1997. I've fronted two successful cover bands and grown tired of winning in karaoke competitions. Now playing bass in a very very good covers band and doing the backing vocals. We do pubs, hotels, weddings for good money. This was a bit of fun, not an audition for TH-cam.
Not too bad...see my "get over it haters" post above. I suppose it opened the doors to get into bands and get solo work. Back then I really thought I could sing...I was wrong and on Stars I was cut in half with nerves!
So you'd already left the job but they made you go back to record that opening segment? It looked so awkward 😅 Hope you're doing well, I thought you were pretty good!
Absolutely class mate! Didn't realise this was your own channel, was going to say you got everything spot on, even down to the little shuffle between lines, haha! Just wished there was a *tiny* bit more power behind the voice. Had no idea they chose the song for you though. Can't imagine Wonderwall winning the votes of many non-Oasis fans, or indeed even Oasis fans either for that matter. Then again I can't really speak for 1997. I would have wanted to do Live Forever all day long. As you were.
I would never have anything negative to say about this video; are you (this question is to the contestant in and uploader of this video) familiar with the user ‘Copied Right’ (whose name’s ‘Graeme Corner’)? If so, do you talk to him?
ted mckenna thanks mate. I was very nervous performing in front of cameras and a 300 strong audience back then so that affected me. I've been in bands since 98 as a result of my Stars appearance, play bass in a very good covers band now and cover songs on acoustic guitar including Oasis. Have a look on my channel!
respect man ill take a look...i thought youd b doing something musical, its where ye belong ..all the best mick have a great xmas etc....ill have a listen n im glad ye still mad 4 it mate
From when you were selected how long was it before you went to the studios. I might be doing this meself in the future and would like to know how long I'd have to practice me lines... Plus can you have a drink in ya dressing room as I reckon is need a drink before I went on stage ha
Oh months! You've weeks to get your lines right from when they make your backing track, which is usually a heavily edited version of the original to bring it down to about 2 and a half minutes per song. So is Stars In Their Eyes coming back in some form? As I recall there were no restrictions on alcohol so perhaps you could take a drink in the dressing room. They'd probably advise against it though to avoid your throat feeling dry!
Good job its actually harder than you think to immitate Liam on this song especially.. as a tribute to Oasis I find Wonderwall and Some Might Say are the least easiest.
@maggie96ful hmmm obviously a panel of audition judges thought otherwise, chosen as one of 60 contestants out of 35000 applicants...but what would I know...
I came second that year in the final, NYAA NYAA NYAA NYAAAA....LMFAO, don`t take the comments so seriously Mick Dean Braithwaite LOL. It was nearly twenty fkn years ago lmao!

Ppl are total assholes. The guy did good.
thats what it was about ey
No you have to sound like the artist you are impersonating, he's very average I've heard well better than that.
I didn't get to choose the song. Also. Filmed 26 years ago. (edited 2022)
Let that sink in.
how long did it take to get transformed into liam Gallagher, just wondered, big stars in their eyes fan
Liam Rands about 90 mins 👍
thank you
Mick Dean Braithwaite not a bad effert lad lol
Fucking good on you kidda.Nice performance 👍👌👍
Surely I can't be the only one who really likes it! Personally I think he sang really well
Sadie Marchant I wouldn't say I sang great, could certainly do better when I wasn't nervous! Some people on here seem to have been brought up in the X Factor culture thinking everyone on TH-cam should be world class! Thanks for the positive comments x
@@mickb278 i think you sounded pretty good.
That sounds exactly like him to be fair
@@mickb278 I liked it mate nice one 👍
yea I thought he did a good job. he needed to slant more I thought but he looks like him and has a good voice.
Please bring this back on our tvs much needed in 2023 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I much prefer this to X Factor. The audience always give the person a chance and encourage them- not boo them and tear them down...
Yeah and you have to have a sob story to get on cringe factor too
Then along came Simon Cowell and made us all realise how entertaining terrible auditions and novelty acts actually are 😂
I used to remember Stars In Their Eyes back in the 90s - such happy and innocent times. The show itself reflects that and much more of a nice and kind version of X Factor and BGT.
British TV was really good at these old game shows. Also around this time was Crystal Maze, Robot Wars and Gladiators. Brilliant!
When tell was half decent used to live waiting for red dwarf on a Friday
Someone was asking why i didn't do something off Be Here Now...answer...because it was recorded in November 1996 and aired in May 1997 before the release of Be Here Now. 😀
mick u was good man am a manc so fuck these clowns on here r kid..
Mick Dean Braithwaite I thought this was class mate. Hope all is well now. You looked cool as fuck before the makeover!
I came on to watch and have a laugh! Defo made me smile cos it’s quite decent. Nice one arr kid
why are all the liam bummers slagging his performance? he's actually quite good!
One of the greatest songs of all time. This guy got the look almost perfect. Good performance too.
When he first walks out the smoke he looks just like him!
I remember watching this in 97! Bet hes way better when not nervous. Not bad man.
What is it with the haters on here? This was 20 years ago a very different time before X factor, pop idol and TH-cam. This show was a bit cheesy sure but that was the fun of it. You sound good too dude 👍🏻.
What haters??? I have just scrolled down the comments and they are all positive. I was going to leave a negative one but I don't think I will bother now.
Ahhh stars in their eyes... My 90 and 00s childhood in New Zealand.
Biblical
I remember seeing this live!! I didn't think he was too bad good effort
I love Oasis, and I like your impression - voice and look. Nice one
In 2012 I'd still pick Liam Gallagher for stars in their eyes.
That was bloody brilliant. A good liam impression. I miss stars in their eyes.
I'm from US and have never heard of this show. Neat you did this. Kudos to you. Spendid job!
I actually think it's good. He doesn't have Liam's tone or power but he still has a decent singing voice. Just needed rasp. I thought he had good presence.
Excellent job Mick, I thought you did great! Classic Liam look too!
Thought you were referring to the hairspray for a second there
well done Mick, biggest tune of that time and you did it justice
The interview before the reveal is insane. I watched it on loop. Very very funny hahaha
He's holding back too much... like, what defined Liam's voice is that he always gave his heart n soul.
Shut the fuck up dickhead
@@guillocrease 🤣🤣🤣
Probably nerves! He needed a few beers and some sniff to get his confidence up. Liam would’ve done.
Loved the intros and insight into what the performer did for a living. Nice work 👍
Well done mate... Hats off! I remember watching this at the time... 🤟🏻
Pretty (Green) damn good impression of Liam G !! Well done mate. Peace. Rx
Bet Liam and probably Noel more absolutely loved this mick pal lol
You can never top bill decker as George Michael.
When Michael Kelly cuddles Olivia Newton John at the end and sighs “God...” it’s just a weeeeee bit pervy.
Who did Michael Kelly pretend to be?
sarah wardle Jimmy Savile I imagine
fairy2009 Jimmy savile wasn’t a singer.
Mathew Kelly not Michael Kelly !
Anybody singing this or evening listening to this, in this day and age. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Top banana Mick! And anybody who has the balls to get up and sing gets full credit from me. Nice work. As you were 😉
Gold From Stone aww Carl😘
I was inside once and I tried to arrange a inter prison singing comp called " Bars in their eyes" or X con factor... Neither of them sold unfortunately!
This video was epic man

Nice one and well said - agree with yer sentiments !! Good on yer dude !! Hey ho. It's only rock n roll but I LIKE IT, like it, yes I DO !! Etc. Rx
you shudda came on with a can of Stella man
Mick Braithwaite
I agree lad. well done mate . :)
Yo won kareoke ?/....Doing this ?
Mick Braithwaite fair pay lad, it's all just music in the end!
Fair play to the lad for giving it a go, wonder how life ever turned out for him.
Not too bad...see my "get over it haters" post above. I suppose it opened the doors to get into bands and get solo work. Back then I really thought I could sing...I was wrong and on Stars I was cut in half with nerves!
Christ, I'd have been 5 when this aired...I wish it was still there 90s 🥺
Great performance and he really looked the spot of him
Bring this back instead of the Saturday night shit we get now !
I wish this had still included the contestant giving 3 clues about who they were going to be before the reveal like they used to when I was a kid
Its pretty good really , fair play. Bring this show back, it was good craic, but only with pre 00s artists.
Those saying he doesn’t sound like him etc he kind of does, but it’s a bloody hard song to sing as a matter of fact.
Then don't do it
@@edmundpower1250it’s a bit of fucking fun mate
X factor is a pile of shit I'd rather they bring this back it was way better. So fun and friendly.
the beginning of the video is just like The Office
They should bring this back and make it a proper competition. Like rounds and finals and shit. At least they're admitting it's a karaoke contest.
They need to bring this back 💯
People doing Harry styles, Adele and nikki minaj. No thanks.
Very good. He even got the nasal sound down! Looks like him too.
well you sounded and looked like him. Well done.
Looks nothing like and sounds nothing like him.
He's amazing 😊
Well done for getting up and doing it fella !! Take no notice !
God I remember watching this, was 17 at the time and was oasis daft... 🤔 still am after all these years 🤫
Did you get to keep that jacket? It looks quite good.
rob Hall Nah. Was skint at the time!
It takes balls to get up there and do that. Even if its not very good. Kudos to him!!
Even if it's not very good😂😂😂
@@edmundpower1250 Could you do it??
It's an amazing song 😱
I liked it
The nostalgia is real
THIS GUY NEEDS A CAN OF RED STRIPE IN HIS HAND ;)!
haha, they still show repeats on challenge every now and then. used to love this shit as a kid, funny was fuck most the time.
So you'd already left the job but they made you go back to record that opening segment? It looked so awkward 😅 Hope you're doing well, I thought you were pretty good!
No we recorded the film while I was still there, several months elapsed between filming and the show being aired..
Absolutely class mate! Didn't realise this was your own channel, was going to say you got everything spot on, even down to the little shuffle between lines, haha! Just wished there was a *tiny* bit more power behind the voice.
Had no idea they chose the song for you though. Can't imagine Wonderwall winning the votes of many non-Oasis fans, or indeed even Oasis fans either for that matter. Then again I can't really speak for 1997.
I would have wanted to do Live Forever all day long. As you were.
Seeing as you didn't get to choose the song wonderwall on that day..given the chance again...which track would you have most liked to sing?
MaffyMoose Roll With It I guess 😎
The bass on this is great.
lol looks just him, sounds very good too :)
I loved this show so much. I looked up this performance and it wasn't until now I saw how bad he was parred by that mic.
he still kicked as though
I would never have anything negative to say about this video; are you (this question is to the contestant in and uploader of this video) familiar with the user ‘Copied Right’ (whose name’s ‘Graeme Corner’)? If so, do you talk to him?
Fuck me, it's Seth Green. :O
Should have done more of the mannerisms and body movements
Some of that Liam swagger
The only two who really sounded like the originals were Freddie Mercury and Chris De Burgh
Would've been epic if he had a dwarf playing guitar with him.
He was brilliant at Liam G.❤
What a cool show idea, basically 90s tiktok but long. Maybe if we kep the show goin we wouldn't need spyware to give us this exact entertainment.
Sounds nothing like him! 🤣🤣🤣
Neither does Liam anymore.
Good on him for having a go. It is not like singing Karaoke when you are pissed up in your local pub. it must make you nervous.
i like it
that is superb man..should do that for a living, youd smash it...close ye eyes n sounds like the real deal..
ted mckenna thanks mate. I was very nervous performing in front of cameras and a 300 strong audience back then so that affected me.

Such a fun show
I miss this show
Would love to do this lol
I can remember when they had some who imitated Noel Gallagher on the 14th series of the show in 2002 he even got through to the live final.
From when you were selected how long was it before you went to the studios. I might be doing this meself in the future and would like to know how long I'd have to practice me lines... Plus can you have a drink in ya dressing room as I reckon is need a drink before I went on stage ha

Yeah some might say hard tune to sing maté especially the chorus
Loved this show
I like his little jacket
@maggie96ful hmmm obviously a panel of audition judges thought otherwise, chosen as one of 60 contestants out of 35000 applicants...but what would I know...
heh mick thought a great attempt ignore the haters and enjoy !!
Mic was set up a bit high. Actually the bass slaps a fair bit in this version
Its all very alan partridge even before the singin
@RevolverAnthology He hee thanks Roy, gotta keep the SITE club alive mate!
This guy isn't bad at all. Better sounding and significantly less obnoxious than that dumb tribute band in the "Live Forever" documentary 🤮.
Christ i would only do that after many a pint! Fair play haha!
I came second that year in the final, NYAA NYAA NYAA NYAAAA....LMFAO, don`t take the comments so seriously Mick Dean Braithwaite LOL. It was nearly twenty fkn years ago lmao!
Great job
I remember this one top performance.
What was the whole experience like?
Are u in contact with anybody?
Would you do stars again?
All the best.
Whether or not he can sing, and whether or not Liam can sing, they don't sound like each other.
sounds better than Liam now
HAHAHAHAHAH
TheMightyGallagher Official well fucking clearly because the guys loads younger than Liam
How did i just know he'd pick the one Oasis song every Oasis "fan" immediately goes for 😂
@@jacobmassey3897 I didn't get to choose the song.
@@mickb278 fair play mate 😆 do you remember what song you would've gone with if you'd been allowed to choose for yourself?
@@jacobmassey3897 I'd have loved to do Roll With It or Champagne Supernova 🤩
@@mickb278 great choices my friend 👍 🤟
Anyone here from a WhatsApp video being sent round 😂😂 👃🏻
The bass is way better on this than the real song.
Well done mick 🍻
