I absolutely love this film watched it many times again and again over the years, I wasn't alive when Buddy was alive and died. Found him when I was 15 in 1987...I think he's one of the greatest losses in music of his time and it would have been an honour to have been alive when he was, I absolutely love him. His music will always live on. There is a few greatest musician losses in the world and Buddy was definitely one of them. Genius, talented young man so glad I came across him.
I'm the same age as you. I love Buddy Holly's music. This Film is so emotive, I cried from when he boarded the bus, to go on Tour! I knew nothing about his private life. He was so young when he died. And his wife lost the baby, after finding out he'd died by watching it on the TV News. There are no words. A huge, tragic waste of a very Talented guy. Great Film!
Watching in 2019- and what can I say!!! Gary busey played the part superbly & the crickets absolutely bowled they part 🙌🙌🙌 RIP Buddy ....JP.....Ritchie V
Yeah alot of great professional like buddy /the who's Dummer /Elvis /jimmy hendrix/marvin G/Kurt./well I could go on and on but fortunately for us they all left a inprint in the music industry 👍
Brings chill to me. I actually remember the horrible news come over the radio or tv about the plane crash. My older brother came into the room and said they are all dead to my parents. My Mum asked who and that was history. I was nearly 5 years old and I remember feeling so sad that all these people died in a plane crash. I did not know at the time or understand how the loss would impact on the world of music.RIP to them all.
I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that buddy would have gone on to be as big...if not bigger than Elvis Presley...he was cruelly snatched from us too soon.
There is absolutely no doubt that Buddy would have been a massive, world famous, rock n roll star, his music has stood the test of time, and his influence is still being felt today. He was a natural talent, and born to be a star!
I was a child in the 1950s and well remember this kind of music being played on the radio. My brother, 9 years older than me, loved it, mum accepted it, but dad despised it with a vengeance! :0) Until then I had enjoyed listening with him to his classical music records but, bearing in mind I was only 6 at the time, I sided with him, until I felt my brother's passion for it. Tommy Steele, Marty Wilde, Elvis, Billy Fury, Cliff, Del Shannon, Eddie Cochran etc and, of course, Buddy Holly. It was a wonderful time.
Oh man......so sad how these three perished. Gary Busey did an amazing Buddy in this movie. He actually sang and played guitar himself. The Big Bopper , also did some great rock'n roll.
The day Buddy Holly died I was not around to see, But as the years go down the line His words of love is what I feel. He sang about pretty Peggy Sue and rocked around with Ollie Vee, And I sit here and I rave on to his memory. Oh Boy, his music will not fade away and though it's raining in my heart, his true love ways he left behind brings me joy Everyday.
I have watched this film many times.. Gary busey is probably the only person who could pull it off. He was excellent. I’m from a rural part of Ireland called Donegal a million miles from Texas . I can’t remember how I heard him but I did and was hooked on his music from that day. So good was his talent. 30 years after I heard him I’m still listening. No one will ever come close to him in my opinion. GBNF legend that he was.
When I watched the UK Tour of the musical, there were so many elderly who behaved as teens, when watching the show, dancing in the isles. It was so much fun. Fell in love with Buffy, the Crickets, JP Richardson (the Big Bopper) and Ritchie Valens
I decided to watch this today. Not many people may know this, but it's exactly 60 years since the day of the tragic plane crash that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper. Those three musicians will always be remembered as talented men among the stars of Rock & Roll's hall of fame.
I love this movie ,and always have. I was 10 years old when Buddy and his Pals were killed 59 years ago. Thanks for the upload. The music sounded great and all the cast in this movie sure did a fine job of acting.All in all it is a Gem of the music of long ago,and it felt good watching it again. BB
Thank you Gabe for bringing this film on...have wanted to see it for a long time, and much better than expected ... just love that guy and his music. What a sad demise this young age
1:50:40 whenever I watch this film after he says the final line, I always say "but he never did". The string and guitar arrangement of True Love Ways that is used as the credits roll can easily bring a tear to the eye!
Incredible performance from cast. Gary was magnificent. Althought the truth was hollywooded for film its still a great film. Enjoy it for what it is. The music...
Waow! I am a Buddy Holly fan. Great movie. What a beautiful time. Greetings from Belgium. Very American, we love it over here. Interesting story they all had.
No human is immortal yet in Jehovah’s government yes Daniel 2:44 humans will be living for ever under new conditions on earth Isaiahs 65:20-25 read it in your bible if u have one ☝️
Many thanks for the upload, a very interesting story. I remember when the church was up in arms about Rock and Roll, they considered it the Devil's music. How mistaken!
Wow. There are still great movies in TH-cam to discover! This one is fantastic, even though Paul McCartney did not like it, as I have since read. Gary Busey is magnificent playing Buddy Holly. There are good movies that catch your attention, and then there is a scene in it that totally captivates and make it even better. This is one of them for me in the scene in the Apollo concert when the Crickets play 'It's so easy'. I'd always thought it was a Linda Rondstadt song I'd known since my childhood. It turns out it was Mr. Holly. I would not go so far as to say the music died the day of the accident, but something must have touched you deep inside...the day...the music...
Rock'n'Roll is the best gift humanity ever received! But unfortunately not everyone appreciates it. Well.. can't make everyone happy, can you? I love Rock'n'Roll! Classic and modern!
I remember being at high school and somebody said to me, Elvis is dead. I thought Elvis can't be dead. Later after inquiring I found out it was Buddy. What I heard was just some rumour going around. It was a shock feeling.
ok? different version of history/future of music in 2000's if buddy holly did not die in the plane crash in 1959 in the 60's his music will still played on redio but his fans will forget him and never tell their own childeren -grand chrildern about holly buddy music/history and history and future of music will be different as i know buddy holly open doors for new 60's-70's un-known singers the day he died on the plane crash
Loved this movie for many years... Personally, i always felt that the movie should've ended on a feel good theme to emphasise that their musical legacy has and always will endure !!
Found Gary Busey less than convincing as Buddy but tough boots to fill. Buddy was not a geeky moron as portrayed. He was a sensitive & shy kind of guy but his passion for his music came over in his simple sweet songs & the energy he put into them. I was 13 years old when I first heard Peggy Sue & That'll be the day. I was hooked immediately. When he came to England I was mortified that I was not allowed to attend his concerts because I was too young in my parent's opinion. Saw him on Sunday night at the London Palladium & was blown away. It's hard to describe the impact of his music at the time. Rock'n'roll was a breath of fresh air in the age of crooners & pop schmaltz. His songs were the soundtrack of my youth & his death a year later was devastating. So sad he was forced to take that fateful tour because of his manager's shenanigans & his need for money demanded by his recent marriage. A tragic loss...
I think he's portrayed as anything BUT a geeky moron. Busey's Holly is tough, confident, smart, headstrong, witty..exactly like the real Buddy was. Go take it up with Jerry Allison, much of Busey's performance was informed by the time he spent with the drummer preparing to play him in the original first-draft film.
Schöner Film über Buddy Holly. Sehr gute Darstellung von Gary Busey. Aber wie jeder Film natürlich eine verkürzte Darstellung .Und Buddy hätte sich sicher gefreut, wenn seine Musik schon damals so geklungen hätte wie in dem Film. Ausgenommen sein Gesang. Als Norman Petty 1963 "Brown Eyed Handsome Man " mit den Gitarren der Fireballs neu unterlegte, schoss dieses Stück sofort an die Spitze der britischen Charts. Überhaupt spielt Petty keine Rolle in diesem Film-wird er überhaupt erwähnt ? Trotzdem ein schöner Film über einen der Pioniere des Rock n Roll, der neben Eddie Cochran die Musik der 60er Jahre entscheidend prägte. Nice movie about Buddy Holly. Good Job done by Gary Busey. But as always in movies only a few episodes from Buddy's life, often not correct. But Buddy would have enjoyed the sound of his songs in the movie, which was far better than in the fifties .When Norman Petty in 1963 pimped Buddy's Brown Eyed Handsome Man with the new guitars of the Fireballs, it went straight to the top of the British Charts. Anyway...seems like the role of Petty is completely ignored in this movie. Nevertheless a nice movie about a Pioneer of Rock'n Roll. He and Eddie Cochran prepared the way for the music and the groups of the sixties.
yess died to young but his music stay forever and i am glad that i'll have still 24 vinyl records from buddy cause my dad loved his misic also very much
Super film, shame they got the guitars wrong. Small point but Holly only used sunburst Stratocasters. Doesn't detract from the film but historically I think they could have used the correct guitars unless there was some copyright issues.
It's really hard to buy his performance here to be honest, he looks rabid - like he's about to take a bite out of one of his co-stars any second. I guess that's just Gary being Gary though, and that's why we love him!
This is Gary Busy’s best acting ever. He made this movie what it is today. I’m watching for the third time. Thank you Gary for the wonderful memories

Yeah he was a great rock nroll singer
60 Years Ago Buddy Was sadly Taking From The World But His Music Still Lives On Forever

When I watched the UK Tour of the musical, there were so many elderly who behaved as teens, when watching the show, dancing in the isles. It was so much fun. Fell in love with Buffy, the Crickets, JP Richardson (the Big Bopper) and Ritchie Valens

Buddy Holly a great artist and such a tragic ending I was 14 when he died so very sad. Great film great music.
Gee I was about the same age. He was my idol. I had painted his name on my slippers. When I heard the news of the plane crash I was heart broken
I love this movie ,and always have. I was 10 years old when Buddy and his Pals were killed 59 years ago. Thanks for the upload. The music sounded great and all the cast in this movie sure did a fine job of acting.All in all it is a Gem of the music of long ago,and it felt good watching it again. BB

lennon legend bio
60 years today we lost Buddy. Miss you Buddy
Very well acted saw many years ago still holds the magic
Just realised that during the end of the move, Buddy Holly is playing a cbs era strat which didnt come out till 1966
And he plays a tele early in the movie. Buddy was a strat man.
And a mustang before. It doesn't exist in that time
The candle that burns twice as brightly burns half as long. Best wishes, Villiago.
What a beautiful ending... RIP Buddy, J.P, Richie.
THANK YOU for the movie!!!

He was the pinnacle of music and a gifted genius
A talent one in a million and far superior then all in the music world

Great movie! Buddy Holly was a huge legend Love this!!!!!!! Thanks so much
Any time I have an argument with the missus, I walk off saying get me the hell back to Lubbock Texas... She has no idea what I'm talking about.
Superb i love it!

Iovely movie, so enjoyable,no boredom, I love it,rip the legend Buddy holly
Magical Movie about a Rock & Roll giant Buddy Holly who died On Tuesday February 3nd 1959 and he will be missed but his Music will live On forever

As an English man ill feel disgusted by this butchering of my language.
Buddy Holly was the best, I love Buddy Holly's music,
Loved this movie for many years... Personally, i always felt that the movie should've ended on a feel good theme to emphasise that their musical legacy has and always will endure !!
gary busey is fit for the role big time
Buddy Holly recorded many hits in a little studio in Clovis New Mexico. No mention in the movie.
that cos it was Norman Petty's studio
RIP Buddy Holly (September 7, 1936 - February 3, 1959), aged 22
You will be remembered as a legend
Gary Busey was perfect as Buddy Holly even his singing voice sounded the same he should have gotten the academy award for this role

The ending just doesn't get any less sadder every time I watch it
Electric performance from Gary. He could of won an Oscar for that and imagine how that would of projected his career.
As the poet said: "men die, but musics stays forever"
This movie is brilliant!
I have seen Gary Busey in Predator 2 and Contact, but this is absolutely brilliant.
Buddy Holly would be proud indeed.
Watch Busey in Under Siege - his second best movie and a brilliant bad guy!

Funny how Columbia spent a lot to create the 56 vibe but could not get hold of a correct era Fender amp and guitar. As a guitarist, that hurts
This superb music unified everybody!!
Died so young i still dance rock roll to his songs
yess died to young but his music stay forever and i am glad that i'll have still 24 vinyl records from buddy cause my dad loved his misic also very much
What a WONDERFUL movie ... very sad though. Buddy Holly ...WOW ... Super Talented!!! Loved the movie but feeling sad that it ended this way for him.
Gary Bussey did the singing in this movie.
if I could time travel all would do is go and see buddy live but being a 13 yr old that never would have been possible
