Russell Watson

Russell Watson (born 24 November 1966) is an English tenor who has released singles and albums of both operatic-style and pop songs. The self-styled "People's Tenor" had been singing since he was a child, and became known after performing at a working men's club. He came to attention in 1999 when he sang "God Save the Queen" at the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final at Wembley Stadium, "Barcelona" at the last match of the Premiership season between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford and a full set of songs at the 1999 UEFA Champions League Final in Barcelona between Manchester United and Bayern Munich.

Watson's debut album titled The Voice was released in May 2001; four others followed. However, an album planned for November 2006 was delayed due to the removal of a benign pituitary tumour. This album, titled That's Life, was eventually released on 5 March 2007.

Funiculì, Funiculà

"Funiculì, Funiculà" is a famous Neapolitan song composed in 1880 by Luigi Denza to lyrics by Peppino Turco. It was written to commemorate the opening of the first funicular cable car on Mount Vesuvius. It was presented by Turco and Denza at the Piedigrotta festival the same year. The sheet music was published by Ricordi and sold over a million copies within a year. It has been widely adapted and recorded since its publication.

History

"Funiculì, Funiculà" was composed in 1880 in Castellammare di Stabia, the home town of the song's composer, Luigi Denza; the lyrics were contributed by journalist Peppino Turco. It was Turco who prompted Denza to compose it, perhaps as a joke, to commemorate the opening of the first funicular on Mount Vesuvius in that year. The song was sung for the first time in the Quisisana Hotel in Castellammare di Stabia. It was presented by Turco and Denza at the Piedigrotta festival during the same year and became immensely popular in Italy and abroad. Published by Casa Ricordi, the sheet music sold over a million copies in a year.

I Don't Know How I Got By

by: Russell Watson

How did I wake up each day,
Before that moment I saw your face
Where was I before your touch
Nowhere is where I was without you.
Without you in, my life was just a lie,
Before you I don't know how I got by.
Before I met you, before I held you in the night,
I don't know how I survived.
Before I found you, before you made everything right,
I was hurt for life.
Wasn't really living 'til you came into my life
I got through it baby,
But I don't know how I got by.
How did I get through those nights
Before that moment I held you tight.
Where was I before your kiss
How did I exist without you.
Life had no meaning, no reason and no rhyme,
Before you I don't know how I got by.
Before I met you, before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived.
Before I found you, before you made everything right.
Wasn't really living 'til you came into my life,
I got through it baby,
But I don't know how I got by.
I thank God when I wake up,
I'm waking next to you.
I don't know what I was living for, before you,
before you whoooah!!!
Before I met you, before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived.
Before I found you, before you made everything right,
I was hurt for life.
Wasn't really living 'til you came into my life
I got through it baby,
