A UK fan tribute to Australian Singer/Songwriter and Actress, Delta Goodrem
First - a history lesson. Delta’s 2003 debut Innocent Eyes is one of only a handful of albums to sell over a million copies in Australia - one in every 20 Australians own a copy. The album spent a record-breaking 29 weeks at No.1 in Australia, won the Highest Selling Album award at the Australian equivalent of the Grammys two years running and has now clocked up 4 million sales worldwide - including reaching No.2 in the UK.
Each of the album’s five singles made No.1 in Australia - breaking a record held by Kylie Minogue and the Beatles - and Innocent Eyes spawned three Top 10 singles in the UK. She’s also had hit albums in Japan and New Zealand, charming the globe territory by territory. It’s not hard to see why: in an era of pre-fabricated as-seen-on-TV popstars, Delta Goodrem is the real thing.
A pianist since the age of seven, Goodrem harks back to a bygone era where pop stars wrote their own songs and sang them live - as simple as that.
Delta became the girl who was always on stage from as long as anyone in her family can remember. “It always just felt natural,” she says. “I remember when I went to concerts of artists I loved and I thought, ‘I can’t wait to do that’. It was never ‘I hope I get to do it,’ I always knew I’d do it. I just believed in myself. There wasn’t a plan B.”
Innocent Eyes established Goodrem as not just a musician but a songwriter. In 2006, Goodrem performed a self-penned song, “Together We Are One,” at the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in front of a worldwide audience of 1.5 billion. The inspirational song surfaced on last year’s American Idol. Another song penned by Goodrem, “Days Go By,” was a No.1 hit this year by Norwegian Idol Glenn Lyse.
Hello, Sorry for the lack of news recently. Delta has been busy preparing her new album for release in 2010 and has spent the past few weeks in Nashville USA.
