Artist: Nik Kershaw | Album: The Collection | Released: 1991 | Genre: Pop
Nik Kershaw (Nicholas David Kershaw) – popularity came to him in the mid-80s after performing on the show “Top Of The Pops”. On Nick’s account such hits as “Wouldn`t It Be Good?”, “I Won`t Let The Sun Go Down On Me”, “The Riddle”, “Wide Boy”, “Dancing Girls” …
It is noteworthy that the single with the anti-nuclear theme “I Won`t Let The Sun Go Down On Me” initially reached only 47th place in the British charts. His subsequent re-release, when social and political problems began to receive more serious attention, brought the song a second line of the charts, second only to the other “political” hit “Two Tribes” of Frenkie Goes To Hollywood.
In the vocal style of the singer, the strong influence of Stevie Wonder is felt, it is not surprising that the press dubbed him “British Stevie Wonder”.
