ROBBIE NEVIL

What do Robbie Nevil, Bryan Adams and George Michael have in common? Besides loads of talent and good looks, they all have a way with words. The Monkees probably put it best when they sang “We’ve got something to say.” Artists like U2 and John Cougar Mellencamp draw their inspiration from real-life experiences, while David Bowie and Duran Duran focus on romantic and exotic elements for their poetic imagery.

ROBBIE NEVIL

The Princes Of Pop

What do Robbie Nevil, Bryan Adams and George Michael have in common? Besides loads of talent and good looks, they all have a way with words. The Monkees probably put it best when they sang “We’ve got something to say.” Artists like U2 and John Cougar Mellencamp draw their inspiration from real-life experiences, while David Bowie and Duran Duran focus on romantic and exotic elements for their poetic imagery. It all goes to show you that a rock star can be much more than just a pretty face!

“When I write, I try to put myself in a lot of other people’s shoes. I’m hoping to hit a nerve with my lyrics: to capture with a single story something that happens to everyone.. .you or I or a truck driver on a cross-country route."
