His first single, 'Move It' has remained an all-time classic. In 1966 Cliff appeared on stage at a Billy Graham campaign meeting and spoke openly of his Christian faith. Many of his fans wept when they read this news the following day, fearing the end of his career as a pop star. In 1972 Cliff was refused admittance into Singapore because his hair was too long. In 1976 Cliff toured Russia, the first western rock star ever to do so, playing eight concerts in Moscow and twelve in Leningrad.

In 2002 Cliff was voted the 'Ultimate Pop Star' by Channel 4 viewers, with sales of nearly 21 million singles in the UK alone. In 2006 Cliff was honoured by Portugal, at a ceremony at the Portuguese Embassy in London, they bestowed their equivalent of a knighthood in recognition of his personal and business involvement in that country.
