Tunes For The Troops
 



 
**Artist Showcase**



Sarah Brightman was born in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, England to Paula and Grenville Brightman, the eldest of six children. At age three, she took ballet lessons at the Elmhurst School and appeared in local festivals. At age eleven Brightman attended the Arts Educational boarding school for jazz and acting, an experience she recalled in an interview with The Independent as troublesome. Brightman was teased by other students and ran away once, but nevertheless she remained at the school.

Later, she auditioned for London's Royal Ballet but was rejected. At sixteen, in 1976, Brightman joined the dance group Pan's People, a staple on the BBC series Top of the Pops. She left a year later to lead Hot Gossip, a mixed dance act who appeared regularly on The Kenny Everett Video Show. The group, whose routines were more provocative than those of Pan's People, had a chart-topping disco hit in 1978 with "I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper", a space-themed track which sold half a million copies and reached number six on the UK charts. The group released a follow-up single, "Adventures of the Love Crusader", six months later, but it was less successful, failing to chart on the UK's top 50.

Brightman, now solo, released several more disco singles in subsequent years under Whisper Records; these included "Not Having That!" and a cover of the song "My Boyfriend's Back". None of these, however, were as prominent as "I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper".

Yes, with about 95% humidity, too.

We went to a Rangers game one time and it was 99 at midnight.
Needless to say....it was very uncomfortable sitting there.
There was NO breeze. Ugh. Good game though...Nolan Ryan’s
last home game. :D

We know that Tony was a Freeper so I wonder if he’ll get added to the Free Republic Memorial Wall http://www.freerepublic.com/memorial/memorial.htm?

Yes, he was a gentleman and a gentle man. I am sure he’ll be
added to the Memorial Wall. He WAS one of us!
