Hi peoples,

I just saw the episode of CATM that Tony was in and I am sorry but I cant see ABSOLUTELEY NO resemblence, not even close, for starters Freddie looked heaps younger and had far more charisma,,what are your thoughts???

I've seen Tony Orlando in person twice back in the 70's and although he is a very talented performer in his own right, he does not look like Freddie at all really. He is smaller and shorter also. Tony does have the ability to get the audience going though. He did go out into the audience quite a bit while performing and I will say it was very enjoyable each time I saw him perform. Tony gave 100% plus in his performances. He has his own kind of charisma, different from Freddie. But Tony and Freddie's talents were focused in different areas, as Tony is primarily a singer and Freddie was primarily a comedian/actor. Of course I prefer Freddie without question, but I do have to give credit to Tony Orlando - he is also very talented.

Freddie is better! Tonny Orlando is just a cheap imitation... No offense to him or his fans... He just isn't as cute as Freddie but I'm sure he is nice in his own way...
