Migmag interviews Daniel Powter

Here's some interesting questions for Daniel from migmag.co.uk! 

Do you come from a musical family?

I do. When I was growing up my mother played the piano and I used to play the violin alongside her as a child. She would take me to symphonies and orchestras in the evenings, I really enjoyed it.

Apart from the violin, do you play any other instruments?

Well I don’t play the violin anymore but yes, I play the piano and keyboard and other keyboard linked instruments like the synthesizer and organ but I don’t play the guitar or anything like that.

Which other artists have you written for?

Mainly Japanese artists, you wouldn’t know them… umm…. yes, just a lot of Japanese artists really.

Lyrics for Cupid

Hey oh oh oh 
Hey oh oh oh 
Hey oh oh 

You're the perfect part of me 
You're the oxygen I breathe 
You're a superstar 
A work of art 
It's electricity 
You're a yes in a world of no's 
You're the Beatles to my Stones 
It's a sweet romance 
A spotlight dance 
Girl you shake me to my bones

But every now and then I'll start to slip away 
I gotta' hear you say 

Take me out spin me around 
We can laugh when we both fall down 
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight 
When I sing out of key 
Still play air guitar for me 
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight 
Don't feel all kind of right 

Hey oh oh oh 
Hey

And when we fight we fight 
And it ain't a pretty sight 
Well it's not complex 
It's the make up sex 
Though we always get that right 
Well they don't make a pill 
That can give me the thrill 
When you look at me 
Then I hear you say 

Take me out spin me around 
We can laugh when we both fall down 
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight 
When I sing out of key 
Still play air guitar for me 
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight 
Don't feel all kind of right 

It's quite clear to me 
That we were always meant to be 
You're my bird 
Baby I'm your bee 
You got me a to z 

Take me out spin me around 
We can laugh when we both fall down 
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight 
When I sing out of key 
Still play air guitar for me 
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight 
Don't feel all kind of right 

Hey Oh oh oh 
Hey Oh oh oh 
Hey Oh oh oh

Get to the Front album review

Get to the Front review: 

Grammy nominated singer-songwriter Daniel Powter is set to announce his return to the international music scene with his new album “Turn On The Lights” on 16th of July.

Kicking off with lead single “Cupid” it’s immediately obvious that Canadian born Powter is an artist reenergized. A hook-laden and eternally optimistic view on love that floats along on a dreamy, strummy guitar, “Cupid” is destined to be a mainstay on the mainstream radio as the summer months kick in.
