Some amazing songs came from that man. My personal recommendation? Him & Marion Raven singing "It's All Coming Back To Me Now". For so long I'd only known it being sung by Celine Dion from back in the day... but when I finally learned of the existence of his version, I fell in love with it instantly and it remains the best version of the song I've ever heard:
His name is Robert Paulson.
Rest in peace. During my last office party we had a karaoke set and I sung Paradise By The Dashboard Light as a duet with a female co-worker. Fun times.
Dead Ringer For Love shaped a part of my childhood. As I grew up, I was never more than a casual fan, until Fight Club, but that song had a strong impact on me, and I am very much grateful. It was probably the first song I made up my own gibberish lyrics to, since I didn't yet speak English.
It's what my wife and I sing at karaoke. A long winded song but fun to sing. Of course when I heard it for the first time it was the sort of thing happening too so it engraved itself as a part of those days.Originally Posted by Harvester
It was sad to hear of his passing. Another one down. It's like dying piecemeal for me.
Take him to the garden and bury him.
I was surprised he lasted as long as he did. I saw him around 2003/4 and that gig had been postponed once because of his health problems. Not my music really, but my ex was into rock, and... I would do anything for love.
He was wheeled onto the stage on a hospital bed, by dancers dressed as nurses. I couldn't help but admire that. I'm not sure if the three hour plus concert running time was a bigger test of my stamina or his. Still, a great showman and a genuine one-off.
