Nat Augustin - I Found Heaven

Nat Augustin was the lead singer of Light Of The World, back in the 1980s, and is currently Alexander O'Neal's musical director. Here he has done the most amazing job with my classic Take That hit, "I Found Heaven", which I co-wrote with Billy Griffin. He has turned it from a pop record into a soul classic and I'm very proud, as it's such a major important track for my new album for so so many reasons. And yes the album is now ready - it's finally ready. It's TRULY ready. And I'm breathless with anticipation. After weeks of non stop work and my two video editors staying up night after night without sleep, it's actually honestly ready. This is the premiere of my oh so important new project. My brand new album, "Yesterday And Tomorrow", is probably the most dear to my heart project that I have ever undertaken. I decided after thirty three years since I made my very first record, "Reaching For The Best" by The Exciters, to take a trip back down memory lane and recut thirty of my classics on artists who I am currently working with, reinterpreting them in 2008 without losing the magic that made them special in the first place. It's a totally self indulgent project, but one which already has my fans salivating with delight. I first got the idea when I recut Evelyn Thomas's wonderful classic "Have A Little Faith In Me" with Ebony Alleyne, last year. So I'm doing thirty in total, twenty four for the CD and six more extra ones for the DVD, picking either my biggest hits, my most beloved tracks, or the songs which people most requested to see a video. As I must clearly explain, these are not the original versions. And that's what makes the project exciting and new.These are brand spanking new interpretations of the classics, by Centre City's current roster of artists , built up over a thirty three year career of making records.
REACHING FOR THE BEST - WEAK SPOT - YOUR MAGIC PUT A SPELL ON ME - BABY I'M STILL THE SAME MAN - HE'S SO IRREPLACEABLE - MY HEAD'S IN THE STARS - NO WAY OUT - LOOKS LIKE LOVE IS HERE TO STAY - I'M IN WONDERLAND- TWENTY FOUR HOURS A DAY - MY CLAIM TO FAME - TRUE LOVE IS MY DESTINY - NEVER LET GO - NEW YORK'S ON FIRE - SO MANY MEN SO LITTLE TIME - HIGH ENERGY - HE'S A SAINT HE'S A SINNER - ON A CROWDED STREET - CLOSE TO PERFECTION - ALL OVER THE WORLD - MY HEART KEEPS BEATING FASTER - TECHNICOLOUR - FOOTSTEPS FOLLOWING ME - I FOUND HEAVEN - MORE TO THIS WORLD - FAN THE FLAME - I CAN'T ERASE THE THOUGHTS OF YOU - DANCING ON THE EDGE OF A DREAM - RUNNING IN ANOTHER DIRECTION - WALKING ON AIR.
I want this album to have you dancing in the streets. I want this album to have you dancing in the aisles. I want this album to have you dancing on the ceiling. This album, "Yesterday And Tomorrow" will be released on March 3rd on Centre City Records, exclusively through the new website, http://www.ianlevine.co.uk - and I hope you will all consider supporting it.

Great up-beat tune with lots of the "feel good" factor. Excellent artist.

Keep up the good work Ian. Eileen & Col

Hello to my oldest dearest friends, Eileen and Col Newton. I was their best man at their wedding thirty six years ago. This is not the Nat Augustin track I told you to listen to - that's "Love Is My Sanctuary", which is my favourite. But this particular video you're watching here is a great version of my Take That hit.

[IanLevine]

Everybody.

This CD and DVD, "Yesterday And Tomorrow", is available right now. Right away.

Either from Amazon or on E-Bay.

I ask you, those of you who watch my videos and enjoy my music, to just this once take the trouble to buy it online.

It sold so few copies in its first week that it's left me wondering if it was all worth it. PLEASE please, this once show your support. If I can get one and a half million hits of my videos on YouTube, then please can we just sell a mere few hundred CDs ???

Another Winner!!! Ian You Really Have The Magic Touch!!! Great Singer, Great Song & Wonderful Production!!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!

[IanLevine]

What a shame you're not in England. You could have come and see all the artists performing these songs this coming Monday.

[Margandy]

Excellent ..... good luck for next week ... I wish I could make it ..

Andy

[IanLevine]

I wish you could too. Have you at least ordered the album ??

I am counting on everyone who likes this music to buy it, so we can continue to release these records. It's tough and we so so need your support, and we're all very grateful to you for it.

With niche music like this, every single copy counts, and we have to at least cover the pressing costs.

Love his voice! This song makes you feel good about being in love!

[comanchegirl1]

[johncotty]

keep the faith

[Discoboy1974]

I always loved Take That's bouncy original version (enhanced by Billy Griffin's wonderful smooth backing vocals) but Nat Augustin's superb vocals lift this from a great pop track to a real soul gem. Sounds classic!

Ian-You Have No Idea How Sorry I Am To Miss It!!! Please Send Everyone My Best & Thank Them For Their Hard Work & For Their Talent!! I LOVE This Music!!!!!!!
