Leo Sayer (2009)

Leo Sayer (* 21. Mai 1948 in Shoreham-by-Sea, Sussex, England; eigentlich Gerard Hugh Sayer) ist ein britischer Sänger.

Seine größten musikalischen Erfolge hatte er in den 1970er und frühen 1980er Jahren. Zu seinen bekanntesten Liedern gehören Long Tall Glasses (1974), You Make Me Feel Like Dancing (1976), When I Need You (1977), More Than I Can Say (1980) und Orchard Road (1983).

Ein Comebackversuch im Jahr 2005 blieb ohne kommerziellen Erfolg. Ein Jahr später erreichte der Housetitel Thunder in My Heart Again, eine Neuaufnahme von Sayers gleichnamigem 1977er-Hit in Zusammenarbeit mit DJ Meck, Platz 1 der britischen Singlecharts.

Sayer ist seit Januar 2009 australischer Staatsbürger.[1]
