mainu jadvi tusi voh yaad aaye(3)
dindihade sharab le baita
changa honda sawal na karda
mainu tera jawab le baita(2)
rang gora gulab le baita
mainu tera shabaab le baita

| Bryan Adams was one of the most popular mainstream rock & rollers to emerge in the '80s, producing a series of platinum albums and Top Ten hits. At the beginning of his career, he relied more on rock than pop, but as his career progressed, he became known for his ballads |
| |
| Born in Canada of English parents, the young Adams grew up in a variety of countries as befits the son of a UN diplomat. |
| |
| Adams began his career as a songwriting partner of Jim Vallance, a former member of Prism. Vallance and Adams wrote songs for several Canadian rockers, including Loverboy and Bachman-Turner Overdrive as well as Bonnie Tyler and Kiss. |
| |
| In 1979, Adams signed a contract with A&M Records' Rondor Music, assembling a band that included Vallance on drums, plus Ken Scott (lead guitar) and Dave Taylor (bass). Their debut single, "Let Me Take You Dancing", was followed by a self-titled album, although neither charted. He spent 1982 touring with Foreigner, the Kinks and Loverboy. The resultant 'You Want It, You Got It' managed to reach the U.S. charts. |
| |
| Bryan Adams' commercial breakthrough came in 1983 with Cuts Like a Knife. This album reached number 8 and went platinum in the USA (although it did not chart in the UK until three years later). It saw Vallance leave, to be replaced by Mickey Curry, though he maintained his songwriting partnership with Adams. "Straight From the Heart," a ballad taken from the record, reached the Top Ten before the album was released. The album also made it into the Top Ten, while the title track peaked at number 15; a third single, "This Time," reached number 24. |
| |
| Adams' fourth album, Reckless, was issued towards the end of 1984 and topped the Billboard album chart. It also gave him his first major UK chart placing, reaching number 7, while the singles "Run To You" (US number 6/UK number 11) and "Somebody" (US number 11/UK number 35) further established Adams as a hitmaker. He enjoyed a US number 1 in mid-1985 with "Heaven", the b-side of which was "Diana", a tribute to the UK princess, which helped to create the tabloid headline "Princess Di Flirts With Canadian Rock Star". Reckless, became a blockbuster success, spending two weeks at the top of the U.S. album charts and selling over five million copies. Besides "Run to You," Reckless featured five other Top 15 singles, including the number one "Heaven," "Summer of '69," "Somebody," "One Night Love Affair," and "It's Only Love," a duet with Tina Turner. Adams was introduced by actor Jack Nicholson at the July 1985 Live Aid concert in Philadelphia, though UK audiences had to cope with transmission problems. He also co-wrote (with Vallance) and helped to perform the Canadian benefit record for Ethiopia, "Tears Are Not Enough". |
| |
| Released in 1987, Into the Fire proved to be a considerable commercial disappointment, spending 33 weeks on the charts, selling one million copies, and spawning only one Top Ten hit, "Heat of the Night." |
| |
| In 1988, he guested at the Nelson Mandela birthday party concert at Wembley Stadium in London, and in 1990 appeared with Roger Waters and others at the special Berlin performance of The Wall. |
| |
| All this was eclipsed, however, by his contribution to the 1991 Kevin Costner movie, Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves. "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" was a phenomenal chart success, topping the UK singles listings for an incredible 16 weeks, the longest run since Frankie Laine's 18-week domination with "I Believe" in 1953; it also sold three million copies and hit the number 1 position in the USA, becoming the bestselling single of that year. The success of "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" re-established Adams as a mainstream rock commercial powerhouse, setting the stage for the triple-platinum Waking Up the Neighbours, released in the fall of 1991. Waking Up the Neighbours launched the number two hit "Can't Stop This Thing We Started" (US number 2/UK number 11), the minor hit "There Will Never Be Another Tonight," and two Top 15 singles, "Thought I'd Died and Gone to Heaven" (US number 13/UK number 8), and "Do I Have to Say the Words?" |
| |
| The following year, Bryan Adams released a greatest-hits collection, So Far, So Good, which featured a new track, "Please Forgive Me." The ballad became another Top Ten success, as did the similar-sounding "All for Love" -- a collaboration with Rod Stewart and Sting for the 1993 movie The Three Musketeers -- which reached number one. |
| |
| In 1994, he undertook a major tour of South-East Asia (in the process becoming the first Western hard rock artist to visit Vietnam since the end of the war) and bought a house in London. |
| |
| In the summer of 1995, Adams had his fourth number one single, "Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?," taken from the Don Juan DeMarco soundtrack; the single spent five weeks at number one. |
| |
| The 18 "Til I Die album attempted to restore his rocker image with limited success. "On A Day Like Today" and "When You're Gone", a high profile duet with Melanie C. from the Spice Girls that reached UK number 3 in December 1998 and spent 10 weeks in the Top 10, helped re-establish his commercial profile. |
| |
| A recording hiatus followed, during which time Adams enjoyed success as a celebrity photographer. In 2002 he photographed Queen Elizabeth II for her Golden Jubilee. Later in the year he released his first album in four years, collaborating with composer Hans Zimmer on the soundtrack to the animated film Spirit: Stallion Of The Cimarron. |
