Paul Curtis Part II

Paul Curtis is an amazing composer, who has written countless great songs that all carry that particular British pop sound. Four times it has lead him to the Eurovision, out of total of twenty attempts, but he has written several hits for other contexts as well.He generously lets us dive deeply into both his diary and his drawers, when he openly tells us all his stories and lets us listen to the original demos of the songs that made it and those that didn't, with several never before heard tracks.This second episode starts off with the chaotic competition in 1991, and Paul reveals to us why and how Samantha Janus ruined her voice before her performance. When the BBC started to experiment with different selection formats things got trickier for Mr. Curtis. He tells us why UK representative in 1992, Michael Ball, recorded all the songs in the pre-selection apart from Paul's and why he has such a tough time getting into the competition in recent years that he has even made attempts across the ditch in France with singer Jessica Martinez among other things.Legend: Paul CurtisSongs: Let Be Be the One - The Shadows (United Kingdom 1975) Love Games - Belle and the Devotions (United Kingdom 1984) Give a Little Love Back To The World - Emma (United Kingdom 1990) A Message to Your Heart - Samantha Janus (United Kingdom 1991)Host: Emil LöfströmContact: [email protected] Facebookhttp//www.eurovisionlegends.se Hosted on Acast.
