Sir Cliff Richard upset as songs are banned from radio

Sir Cliff Richard has been left fuming after his songs were banned from a UK radio station.

Executives at Absolute Radio 60s have revealed the veteran singer's tracks will not be played on their airwaves as he is not 'cool enough'.

Richard is unimpressed with the ban and has slammed the radio bosses for snubbing his music.

He tells the Daily Express: "They are trying to erase me and count me out. I have sold more singles than The Beatles."

The star previously overcame a similar issue in 1999 when his Christmas single Millennium Prayer topped the chartt even though it had been banned from several of the top radio stations.
