Everyone’s favourite 80’s crooner Paul Young is back on tour, performing his much loved album No Parlez in celebration of 35 years since it’s release and I went to talk to him in the heart of London. This is the second time I have interviewed Paul Young in one year and I have to admit I admire him more at every new conversation I have with him. Watch my interview in which we talk about the 35 years No Parlez tour, a revival of his music career, the 80s and, of course, Paul’s new passion, cooking. Don’t miss it! It’s a really lovely chat and you will fall in love with him.
‘No Parlez’ was Paul’s debut album. It reached number 1 in the UK charts in 1983 for 5 weeks and fast became triple Platinum.
The album produced Paul’s first UK number 1 single – The Marvin Gaye cover of ‘Wherever I Lay My Hat’ and hits ‘Come Back & Stay’ & ‘Love of The Common People’. The album also features a cover of Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’.
Originally in early 80’s band Q-Tips, Paul Young went solo in the 80’s and his career took off with ‘No Parlez’and further top 10 hits such as ‘Everytime You Go Away’& ‘Everything Must Change’. He is also a Brit Award winner for Best Male vocalist, sings the opening lines on the original Band Aid Single ‘Feed The World’ and performed at Live Aid in 1984.
Paul is a keen chef, biker and fan of all things Mexicana! A family man, always happy to be touring his classic hits as a solo artist or with his Tex Mex/ Americana band ‘Los Pacaminos’.
