O’SULLIVAN TIRED OF DEATH ASSUMPTIONS
GILBERT O’SULLIVAN is eager to launch a big comeback - to remind fans he’s still alive.
The Get Down hitmaker found fame in the 1970s, and although he released an album in January (11), he’s remained largely out of the spotlight in recent years.
But O’Sullivan admits he’s becoming tired of fans assuming he’s died and wants to burst back on to the music scene.
He tells the BBC, "It’s out of sight, out of mind. If you aren’t on the box regularly you’re a has-been. If you aren’t in the public eye people think you’re dead.
"I meet people all the time who say, ‘We used to love you, we thought you were dead!’ I know exactly where they’re coming from. I’m scratching at the door. I’m desperate for success even at my age."
