bio.html Bolton won another Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male, for "When a Man Loves a Woman," but he had to put up with abuse from two camps of detractors at the February 1992 ceremony. Just after Bolton had sung, pre-rock songwriter Irving Gordon won the Song of the Year award for "Unforgettable" and pointedly attacked songs that "scream, yell, and have a nervous breakdown" and singers who "have a hernia" when they sing. On this album, Bolton abandoned the more hard-rock aspects of his style to concentrate on blue-eyed soul singing, both on his own songs, such as "That's What Love Is All About" and on covers like OtisRedding's "(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay." Those two songs became Top 40 hits. www.livebyrequest.com /michael_bolton/bio.html   (565 words)
