One of the best musicians I know....great...emotional Art....I love it since I was a young girl.....love his songs and music.....thank you...for all this memories.....
Warm greetings from Sydney and a big thank you to Mike Batt for all the beautiful music and memorable songs recorded and released over the years. I admire your talents and works!
LOVE MAKES YOU CRAZY is one of the best pop songs of all time. Greatly composed, even better arranged and the lyrics are Shakespearean in quality and tell a futuristic story. Innovative and timeless synth pop that is second to none. This is true genius!
Like I suspect so many I Always known about Mike but isn't until you do a little YT research on the man when you realise just how big an influence he been in the music world and in life in general, awesome dude, thanks man hope you still well
Absolutely fascinating. So looking forward to your production with Bob Blakely. I'm sure it will bring out the best in both of you, and so richly deserved!!!!
Fascinating story! Most is new to me (being Amurrican & not British). Now I have a better appreciation for where some of those insanely brilliant lyrics come from in Katie M's songs. I love the understated-ness of the melodies, as well as the lyrics, as well as the man. Thank you, sir.
Over the years I've been lucky enough to work with some of my favorite writers - and I'd love to co write something ( on line) with Mike. I'm sure we could come up with songs for Colin Blunstone.
Why haven't you been knighted ???????? You are far more talented than anyone else in your line. I just love the way you seem to play notes of scales/chords before you actually play the correct accompanying chord -----if I am making sense. You end up with some beautiful passages.
Regarding Batt's passage that you say you find so beautiful in your crawling homage to the little turd, did you find any polyps when you were up there ?
Most artists use AUTO-TUNE for their voices. Mike decided to show his real uncorrected voice. Kudos to him for doing that. It takes guts which artists today don't have. But the rawness and the emotions in his songs are thus greatly enhanced.

OMG, MIKE BATT SO ROCKS

Very interesting interview about and with an great songwriter, producer and singer. Thanks for uploading that!
Love this album and Mike's lovely singing. Admire you so much Mike, if you get to read this. As a musician myself I appreciate your melodies.
Mike has written many terrific songs over the years. Didn't know he had broken his neck, glad he's alright now.

Great guy. Extraordinary talent.
Love you Mike
Mike has got such a lovely singing voice as well as being a great songwriter and pianist. Keep going, Mr Batt! 😀
He had to wait till he was an "old git" LOL!
Ah Bless you Mike...Old git (well let's just leave the old git bit out) maybe, but we still adore you.
Talented man

Fabulous.
Talent!
Blimey is that your Gaff Mike? Spot on!
He earned it, well and truly.
I have a song for Mike - how do I get it to him?
Flushing it down the nearest toilet should do the trick. That's where he keeps his.

You are far more talented than anyone else in your line.
I just love the way you seem to play notes of scales/chords before you actually play the correct
accompanying chord -----if I am making sense. You end up with some beautiful passages.
Regarding Batt's passage that you say you find so beautiful in your crawling homage to the little turd, did you find any polyps when you were up there ?
Yes. He likes his arpeggios.
I'm a little sorry to say it but the only thing wrong with the new versions is Mike's voice.
