Chatting with Gilbert O'Sullivan


Listen Later

He was the superstar who topped the UK and US single charts in the 70s with songs of endearing tunefulness, unabashed sentiment and existentialist musings...

Today, Irish singer-songwriter Gilbert O’Sullivan continues to be regarded with tremendous affection and his songs remain well-loved around the world. Gilbert O'Sullivan set out to be a guitarist. This all changed when the Beatles came along but one thing has never changed for Gilbert...his ability to create beautiful songs.

In this podcast, he talks candidly about his long career and why Alone Again (Naturally) will never be tinkered with as rapper Biz Markie found out to his cost. He also reveals who he'd like to cover one of his own songs!

A podcast not to be missed!
