I was a Royal Marine in the sixties and Helen with others came to do a Show at our Camp, The Commando Training Centre RM. The show was at the Camp Theatre called "The Globe". I was lucky enough to say hello to her and what a lovely unpretentious Lady she was and I never forgot. God Bless her.

A few years ago, late 70s early 80s  Helen was booked to perform at a Cabaret evening at the Baron Suite, Edinburgh. She came on, sang one song, began another but had to finish abruptly as she had a really bad throat.  Her throat was so bad she could hardly speak her apology. She left, went to a dressing room  and we all looked at each other. I had been so looking forward to seeing her, as it was partly her influence that helped me to become a Singer,  and I was able to sing standards too, which really helped me find plenty of work. I went over to the House Band, most of whom I knew, since I had worked with them myself. Next thing I knew I was asked to step in, as there was quite an audience who needed to be entertained.   That's  my story about Helen and me, whom I spoke to later on before she went back to her hotel. She really was unwell. I stood in like an  understudy does. It's a memory that's been treasured by me all these years. Thanks  Helen. Thanks for the Standards I learned from listening to  you .

I have a CD of Helen's beautiful worship songs. Still a wonderful voice now worshiping and praising our Heavenly Father!

Helen Shapiro is so nice, down to earth, and talented. Coming from an American, every Brit should be proud of her. She is a role model for the rest of us!

Helen Shapiro, magnificent singer and a lady in every sense.

Fabulous singer we should all celebrate far more than we do.

Shes still beautiful!! Theres something about her. Oh yeah.beauty lol.

One of the best, 'This is Your Life' shows about a lovely & highly talented lady. ♦️♦️♦️

What a star she was and still is. Love Helen Shapiro ❤️

As an American, I really never knew that much about Helen Shapiro, but I've always liked Walking Back To Happiness.  Really enjoyed getting to see her story unfold on this show.  Cheers.

I was, madly, in love with her back in the '60s.

One of our finest singers. Glad that Helen has had the recognition she so deserves. Northwold school also had Marc Bolan as a pupil.

Helen shapiro has a great voice. she had great song writers.

Please don’t treat me like a child….sang by a 14 year old with a fabulous voice.  Couldn’t fail !

Helen Shapiro. Such a talent and a lovely lady. As an American I have always listened to British tv, vocalists and movies. Helen overlapped with Alma Cogan, Connie Francis, Petula Clark, Lesley Gore, and Brenda Lee and so many others. Graceful, kind and gracious. Shalom Helen. We love you here in the States.  Been listening to your songs in the car, and everywhere. Wish the variety shows of yesteryear would make a comeback. Helen is iconic for so many reasons including the Beatles.

Her voice was distinctive which made her unique during her time..

Helen sang songs that went to my heart

I love this woman her talent her voice captivated me.

Absolutely brilliant, I love Helen's voice!!

As Cliff Richard says, we have the same Father! Love Helen Shapiro's Messianic gospel!
