Product Description

Book Description
Will Young’s first book By Public Demand was a best seller and now, more than one year on, Virgin is proud to be the new publisher of this, the latest intimate portrait of one of the UK’s most popular solo singing stars. The release of his new album Friday’s Child for Christmas 2003 and in particular the opening single ‘Leave Right Now’ marked a very definite escalation in the success story of the first Pop Idol winner. Both records went straight to No 1 in the UK charts, making his chart tally so far five number one hits.

Will has cleverly used the springboard of his Pop Idol success and has worked hard on his songwriting skills as well as his vocal technique: the result has truly surprised his fans as well as the nation’s pop pundits and radio DJ’s. He has added to his television based popularity a whole new stratum of respect for his jazz and soul vocal stylings and the positivity of his philosophy as seen in his very personal lyrics. All of which makes him even more interesting to the book buyer.

On Camera: Off Duty is a unique and revealing glimpse of both the private man and the public star, covering his memories of the Brits (where he won the ‘Best British Breakthrough Act’ award), his trips to the USA, and both his live touring and his appearance on The Royal Variety Show, as well as taking a look at his fitness regime, his individual style and his thoughts on fame and relationships. Exclusively filled with Will’s own photographs this is a ‘must buy’ for every one of his millions of dedicated fans as well as for anyone interested in the workings of the pop world in which he lives, and in which he is so very successful --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Will is here to stay, 3 Jan 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Will Young : By Public Demand (Hardcover)
I, like thousands of other people across the country, am a fan of Will Young and have followed his progress from the final 50 of Pop Idol until this very day. This book picks up nicely from where his book Anything is Possible finished. I think it proves he has staying power and WILL not end up as a flash in the pan like Hear say (who?)!! The photographs are charming, sensitive and show what a natural Will is at being himself. This book is a treat for fans but would also provide any sceptics with some insight into his world, how fame has affected him and his hopes for the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars will young- grrrrr!!!!, 5 Jun 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Will Young : By Public Demand (Hardcover)
How much do I love Will Young? Like absolutely loads. I first began to like him on pop idol and then was stuck on him ever since. When I became a audience member of 2002's children in need I became to love him even more for the down to earth guy he really is. I received this book for christmas and could not put it down when I started. The way in which its written and the way in which will is portrayed is definately correct. He's the kind of guy you wanna know and have a laugh with becoz he just seems so kool about everything!
All in all a great book and would recommend it to anyone- not just huge will fans like myself!

5.0 out of 5 stars By Public Demand, 2 Nov 2002
By Oyster (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Will Young : By Public Demand (Hardcover)
This book by Richard Galpin gives an insight into Will Young's life from just before the Jubilee until later in the year when he was recording the album "From Now On".

It is very interesting and there are loads of gorgeous pictures of Will. The author obviously fell under the spell of the charismatic Will Young. In the very last paragraph he says:

'Since starting this book all my friends have been keen to know exactly what Will's like. Well, he's not the grinning buffoon I originally had him down as... he is, well, how can I put it? A thoroughly "nice bloke".'

This says it all - Will IS a thoroughly nice bloke and the author brings this out in what is a very good book, which I recommend to anyone interested in the music industry.
