Alexander O’Neal might not be as big a name as Prince (with whom he worked in 1981) but rest reassured that his soul music will live forever. Alexander O’Neal is in fact a global superstar and one of the best soul singers from the 80s. He came to prominence as an R&B singer in both the US and UK with a stream of hits that included If You Were Here Tonight, Saturday Love, Never Knew Love Like This’ & ‘Fake. Orginally signed in his early days by the late legend Prince, he has secured his name in the R&B history books, with a career that has spanned over thirty years. His much loved, chart smash Criticize is still lighting up dance floors across the world today and became integral to the soundtrack of the teenage years of Generation X.

Lovely pre-Christmas gig with Boyzlife… Who are Boyzlife anyway? Pop stars and friends Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden who have achieved global success with their respective bands Boyzone and Westlife, have recently formed a new pop supergroup Boyzlife. The duo’s nationwide tour sold out within four hours of going on sale last year and they are back now for a pre-Christmas revival of their best combined hits. I have caught up with Brian McFadden to find out what Boyzlife is all about.
