Irish Eurovision singer and frontman of the rock band Bagatelle, Liam Reilly, has died aged 65.

Little known fact he was the only person to represent Ireland at Eurovision in the 90's and not win.* For that the Irish hate him.**




* definitely not true.
** may or may not be true.
 
Loved Gerry's famous hit compositions "Dont Let The Sun Catch You Crying" and "Ferry Cross The Mersey" even as a little kid in the early '60s. Another talented son of our City... May He Rest In Peace. With condolences to his Family and Close Friends
Your first song brought back so many memories of my first love ending. Always second to the Beatles, but loved them all nonetheless.
RIP.
 
That's gutting about Gerry Marsden. You don't have to be a Liverpool supporter to recognise what a force for good his voice and YNWA as anthem has been for the city in the past half century or so. Take football out of it, the song has helped bring comfort to so many people in times of sadness and difficulty.

RIP.
