  • Matt Monro sings 'Who Can I Turn to' (with lyrics)
    Matt Monro was one of Britain’s most iconic singers.
    He recorded the very first James Bond Theme song -‘From Russia With Love’ - represented Britain in the Eurovision Song contest in 1964 with ‘I Love the Little Things’ (in Copenhagen) - finishing second - and had many international hits which included ‘Born Free’, ‘Walk Away’, and ‘Portrait of My Love’.
    Matt died on 7 February 1985 aged 54 and only 5 days after receiving a telegram from Frank Sinatra which said:
    “Sorry to hear that you've taken ill and hope you'll soon be on the mend and up and about. I send you love and prayers.
    Your fellow boy singer,
    Frank Sinatra"
    Frank Sinatra said of Matt:
    "His pitch was right on the nose: his word enunciation letter perfect: his understanding of a song thorough.
    “He will be missed very much, not only by myself, but by his fans all over the world."

    I will play this beautiful song to my darling wife who sadly has dementia. I breaks my heart to think one day I will no longer be able to see her. But until that day comes I will sit and play this wonderful song by Mr matt monroe. God bless him for making our lives bearable.

      One of the greatest ever yet just the other day when Matt was mentioned in a paper article, they couldn't even do him the courtesy of spelling his name correctly - adding an "e" at the end. Matt always said that it was easy to remember since it was an anagram of "Moron". Seems there are still morons out there though there that can't get it right.
