Steven Sharpe - When Somebody Loved Me (Cover)

Sound it Out is the latest hook-filled, lyrically explicit single from Galway-based male- diva sensation Steven Sharpe and his unwitting backing band ‘The Broke Straight Boys’. 

Featuring Mariah Carey-inspired vocal gymnastics, Studio 54-tight rhythms and a slick chorus guitar riff any 90’s alternative band would have killed for, the song takes the listener on a flamboyant aural roller-coaster, winding and weaving its way through twice as many sections as the average 4-minute 4-chord pop song.

Inspired by the sexual-confused misadventures of an Irish small-town miscreant, Sharpe paints a picture of rebellious deeds and disastrous consequences against a backdrop of upbeat musical themes that range from disco to hard rock. Think Freddie Mercury backed by a band part Chic, part Nirvana.

Steven Sharpe is undoubtedly one of Ireland's best-kept secrets but has made a name for himself in the Galway’s thriving music scene, performing his own brand of out'n'proud music with a live show that must be seen to be believed. His veracious, witty, and soulful musical presence blends music, humour and storytelling and draws influences from Prince to Kate Bush to Nina Simone. In 2015 he started performing with ‘The Broke Straight Boys’ a backing band made up of Galway’s most competent and versatile musicians and since has played sold-out shows and festivals all over Ireland.

Sound It Out

"Don't Smoke in Bed" is a jazz song originally composed and recorded by Willard Robison and later associated with a recording by Nina Simone released on her 1958 debut album Little Girl Blue

Don't Smoke In Bed test 3

Found it the other day and I can't get it out of my head. So I thought I better record it. I am truly losing my marbles.

Song by Keith Harris and Orville the Duck

Orville the Duck was the most famous puppet often used by the ventriloquist Keith Harris (1947–2015) and was named after Orville Wright (one of the Wright Brothers). Orville is a green duckling who wears nothing but a nappy with a large safety pin on the front. He speaks with a falsetto voice.
Orville appeared on BBC television from 1982 to 1990 on The Keith Harris Show, which featured assorted puppets such as Orville the Duck and Cuddles the Monkey. At the peak of their popularity in December 1982, Harris and Orville released the single "Orville's Song", reaching number 4 in the UK Singles Chart in January 1983 and selling over 400,000 copies in total.
After The Keith Harris Show's close in 1990, Harris took up work for Butlins holiday resorts.
In 1991 "Orville's Song" was sampled for a dance music single "I wish I could fly" by DWA with Harris appearing in the accompanying music video.
In 2004, Harris provided Orville's personality in an advert for Surf washing powder. Harris, in an attempt to broaden the horizons of his original stage show, also toured with a more adult offering entitled Duck Off.Orville and Harris had a short appearance on the sketch comedy series Little Britain as themselves in a group of entertainers waiting to meet the royal family. In another episode, Orville was portrayed as an out-of-work actor shopping at a supermarket, played by Matt Lucas, dressed as an oversized version of Orville, and had a regularly pitched voice. Harris and Orville have also made an appearance on Channel Four's Banzai.
In 2005, both Harris and Orville appeared in the Channel 5 reality TV show, The Farm and went on to win it. They also appeared in the video for Tony Christie's "Is This the Way to Amarillo", which was re-released in that year. In May 2009, they made a cameo appearance on the BBC drama Ashes to Ashes, set in November 1982.
There were two Orville puppets that Harris used, one manual, one a radio-controlled animatronic version. The original Orville puppet is insured for £100,000.
In February 2012, Orville featured in a giffgaff advert. In October 2012 and December 2013, Orville appeared with Harris on Pointless Celebrities.
Harris died of cancer on 28 April 2015 and his agent confirmed that Orville would be retired and will never appear in public again.
