Paul Anthony Young Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Paul Anthony Young (born 17 January 1956) is an English musician. Formerly the frontman of the short-lived bands 'Kat Kool & The Kool Cats', Streetband and Q-Tips, his following solo success turned him into a 1980s teen idol. He is famous for such hit singles as "Love of the Common People", "Wherever I Lay My Hat", "Come Back and Stay", "Everytime You Go Away" and "Oh Girl". His debut album No Parlez turned him into a household name. His smooth yet soulful voice belonged to a genre known as "blue-eyed soul". Since the mid-1980s, he has had international success, along with his backing band Los Pacaminos.In 1985, he appeared at Geldof and Ure's charity convention Live Aid, where he appeared at the London Wembley Stadium performing the Band Aid hit "Do They Know It's Christmas" (having sung the opening lines on the original single release), and his own hits "Come Back and Stay" and "Everytime You Go Away", with Alison Moyet joining him on-stage to perform "That's The Way Love Is". At the 1985 Brit Awards, Young received the award for Best British Male.Since the late 1990s, Young has released very little new material, but has continued to tour in different parts of the world.
[on Gary Glitter] A very rich and varied career. One of life's great entertainers and I've always admired great entertainers, probably even nicked a few moves at one time or another.
2
[on Rod Stewart] I do think he's a great writer. I'm really pleased that on his new album he's started writing again. He's always been on form. He's never lost it.
3
A good voice is an expressive voice. Technically I haven't got a good voice because it's rough.
4
I think the main thing about doing a cover is you feel there's something in the song that suits you and so you then alter the song to make it suit you. If you didn't alter things to suit you then all you're saying is 'my voice has a similar style to the guy that did it 10 years ago so I'm going to copy that' and there's not much to be said about that.
