About Shakin' Stevens

Shakin’ Stevens

Shakin' Stevens, one of the most enduring figureheads in rock and pop history, makes a triumphant return with the January 17 release of the arresting and thought-provoking new single 'It All Comes Round.'

The song comes on the heels of Shaky's jubilant live shows before Christmas, as Very Special Guest on Status Quo's UK arena tour. It also serves as a taster for a bold addition to his vast recording legacy, the album Re-Set , which will follow in April. Its 10 songs combine deeply heartfelt, meaningful lyrics with the most impassioned vocal performances he has ever summoned from himself, well over 50 years since his first recordings.

The seeds for the single and album were planted before lockdown, and on the very day that restrictions were lifted, in the spring of 2021, Stevens and his fellow songwriters reconvened at co-producer and longtime collaborator John David's Berry Hill Studio. Re-Set is the result.

'It All Comes Round' is a vivid description of karma, and how kindness to others will come back to you in reward, just as hatred also travels in both directions. “It all comes down to doing what you can,” Stevens sings, “and it don't hurt to lend a helping hand.” It's a compelling trailer for an album that takes the infectious roots-rock of his acclaimed and highly successful 2016 release Echoes Of Our Times into even more adventurous territory.

Like that album, Re-Set has a number of personal storylines, drawn from his own family chronicles, and the working-class background from which the young Michael Barratt crafted his incredible career. A unique combination of vocal prowess and unstoppable determination helped to create a star who became the UK's bestselling singles artist of a decade; his overall track record includes 33 Top 40 UK hits, four No. 1s, countless hit albums and undimmed popularity all over Europe and far beyond.

On Re-Set , those personal tales weave into an interconnected narrative about our collective place in the modern world, both real and virtual. There are songs about the plight of his ancestors, the uncle he never knew, and his own mother, who had a very difficult life, but nevertheless raised 13 children almost singlehandedly, while also holding down a job. But the album is also firmly rooted in the present day, as a call to arms about our planet and what we're doing to it, and to each other.

Shakin’ Stevens: ‘When I played Elvis, I was told to colour my hair black. It went down well, so I kept doing it’

The singer on karma, having a cardiac arrest, and his tour bus coming off a mountain road

B orn in Cardiff, Shakin’ Stevens, 74, was the UK’s biggest-selling singles artist of the 1980s , with songs such as This Ole House , Green Door and Merry Christmas Everyone. In 2016, he released the album Echoes of Our Times, and last year he toured with Status Quo. His latest single is It All Comes Round and his album Re-Set is out on 28 April. He has three children and lives in Buckinghamshire with his manager and second wife, Sue Davies.

What is your greatest fear? A world without music.

What is the trait you most deplore in others? Bullying, whether face to face or online.

What was your most embarrassing moment? I was in the musical Elvis, and after a costume change I went below stage to be raised up on a platform. As I was raised up, I blanked and couldn’t remember the first line of the song King Creole. I mumbled the first few lines and hoped nobody would notice.

Describe yourself in three words: Down to earth.

What or who is the greatest love of your life? Sue, the woman sitting next to me. We don’t just work together, we’re married. We’re a good partnership.

Would you choose fame or anonymity? Obviously fame – every time.

What do you most dislike about your appearance? You have to accept how you are. My one exception is my hair, which I still colour. When I played Elvis, I was told to colour my hair black. The audience got used to seeing my hair like that and it went down well, so I kept doing it.

What scares you about getting older? It’s life, don’t stress. That said, I have tried to look after myself – I packed up smoking and I don’t drink.

What makes you unhappy? Stress.

What does love feel like? Ups and downs.

Have you ever said “I love you” without meaning it? No, you’ve got to mean it.

What has been your biggest disappointment? I never dwell on them.

after newsletter promotion

When did you last cry, and why? When I was recording a track called May, about my mum.

How often do you have sex? That’s for me to know.

What is the closest you’ve come to death? I had a cardiac arrest in 2010. I also had a close call in the early days in Cardiff when I was in a band called the Denims. We were in a van driving along a narrow mountain road. Somebody wanted to go to the toilet, so we stopped, and afterwards the driver took a wrong turn and we went careering down the mountain. Everyone was screaming, it was like a nightmare. At the bottom was the railway line, but the van stopped just in time. We were very lucky.

What single thing would improve the quality of your life? More green tea – I’m addicted.

What do you consider your greatest achievement? Giving people enjoyment.

What keeps you awake at night? Nothing.

How would you like to be remembered? It would be nice just to be remembered.

What is the most important lesson life has taught you? You only get out what you put in. Karma – it all comes round.

What happens when we die? Nothing, so make the most of your life and enjoy it.
