Uploaded By ► Red Grey Matter ’’Enjoy Your Day’’ Buy Album ’’Upfront’’ #Rock #Pop About, John Miles: Originally a pupil at the Jarrow School, Miles was a member of the bands The Influence (which also included Paul Thompson, later drummer with Roxy Music; and Vic Malcolm, later lead guitarist with Geordie) and The John Miles Set, before starting his solo career in the 1970s he issued eighteen singles and four albums, including Rebel (1976), Stranger In The City (1977), and Zaragon (1978). However, Miles had most success with singles; in addition to “Music“, he also charted with “Highfly“ (1975), “Remember Yesterday“ (1976), and “Slow Down“ (1977). Most of his songs were co-written with his bassist, Bob Marshall. “Slow Down“ was also featured in the 1979 movie Players starring Ali McGraw and Dean Paul Martin. In the 1980s, he continued to record and tour. In 1983, a new radio station in the South of England, Radio Mercury, used parts from the song “Music“ for their link jingles. The song itself also received extensive airplay on the station. Miles has toured with Tina Turner, often filling in for Bryan Adams when the latter was unavailable to join her on tour for their duet. Miles is also a frequent guest vocalist on albums by The Alan Parsons Project. Throughout the late 1980s and into the 1990s, Miles was the music director to Tina Turner on her various tours, and played on several of her albums. He also played Hammond organ on Joe Cocker’s album Night Calls (1992). Today he is still making music, which he famously refers to as his “first love“. In 1990, Miles participated in the UK heat of A Song for Europe with the song “Where I Belong“, which came second. In 2002 he issued the DVD John Miles - Live In Concert. In 2007 Miles performed in Gelsenkirchen, Germany with the German band Pur and sang two songs. One of those songs, “Abenteuerland“, Miles sang with Pur in German. The concert is available on the DVD, Pur-Friends-Live-Schalke-2007. In October 2008, Miles began touring once again with Rock Legend, Tina Turner. Turner had an extensive American-European Tour, stretching from October 2008 to late April 2009.

Now that the magic has gone You just wanna walk away Nothing left to say anyway Now that the magic has gone There’s no sense in holding on Baby now, now that the magic has gone You know love can be tender, love can be cruel It can smile like an angel while it treats you just like a fool It captures and haunts you until you give in Then it stacks the dice against you in a game you never can win Just when I was thinking Lady Luck was here with me You tell me: “It’s over baby“. Say: “It’s time for breaking free“ Now that the magic has gone You just wanna walk away Nothing left to say anyway Now that the magic has gone You know there’s no sense in holding on Baby now, now that the magic has gone I won’t try to hold you down My mind tells me to let go But my heart keeps asking how There’s no prizes for the loser Only the winner takes the purse Some say that love’s a blessing But to me it’s just a curse Now that the magic has gone Oh baby, you just wanna walk away Got nothing left to say anyway Now that the magic has gone You know there’s no, no sense in holding on Baby now, now that the magic has gone Now that the magic has gone Welcome to ᖇᗴᗪ ᘜᖇᗴ Y ᗰᗩ TTᗴᖇ Club!
