A great singer Bryan Adams is. If you go back a tad there was a time where Bruce Springsteen had taken some time off as he had hit his peak in the mid 80’s.
Very shortly thereafter came this young kid named Bryan. Of course Bruce would be back but Bryan really took the place of the boss with the image of an all American image.
January 1983, was Adams' breakout album due mainly to the lead singles. "Straight from the Heart" was the most successful song from Cuts Like A Knife, reaching number ten on the Billboard Hot 100. Another single, "Cuts Like a Knife" charted at number fifteen. "This Time" also placed on the Hot 100. Music videos were released for four of the singles from the album. "Cuts Like a Knife" arguably became Adams' most recognizable and popular song from the album. Its music video received heavy airplay on music
Reckless included the hit singles "Run to You", "Heaven", "Summer of '69", "One Night Love Affair", and "It's Only Love". All the singles had accompanying music videos and all charted on the Billboard Hot 100 but only "Run to You", "Summer of '69", and "Heaven" peaked in the top ten “Heaven" would become the most successful single from Reckless at the time of its release on the pop charts, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and number nine on the mainstream rock chart.
Bryans first album came out it seemed that he gained by way of Bruce’s time out. But now they both play in there own ways as for Bryon I believe he lives in Canada, the USA, as well as in France.
I do like this song, and he has a sweet, husky voice!
ReplyDeleteLiterally saw him before he broke through. Now he is doing things much like Sting and who would have ever thought he would perform with Pavarotti...
ReplyDeleteSome people have all the luck! *smile*
ReplyDeleteTrue, but I think that we find those things within our lives. There is no need to be someone that has achieved "luck" as they were just like you or I.
ReplyDeleteSome people come into there element at various ages in whatever they wish it to be. But realistically, I believe that there are stages and we are not 21, but there are things that one can do no matter what age - it's what they desire to do.
I love it. Special.
ReplyDeleteGoes out to a very good friend of mine, as well as to a few others that are facing something - but things do change.
ReplyDeleteI Heart Bryan Adams! "Cuts Like A Knife", "Run to You" and "Everything I Do" are some of my faves of his. What a voice he has!
ReplyDeleteOne of favorite singers.
ReplyDeleteThe first time I heard of him, a Scottish friend said she was buying his album to send to her teenage nieces in Scotland. That must have been in the 80's some time.
