Bryan Adams leaves Marquee on ‘Cloud #9’

Whatever IT is, he’s got it. With his slicked back hair and smart evening jacket, he may be a bit Don Draper of Mad Men from the waist up, but he’s still all denim ‘n’ Elvis from the belt buckle down.

He’s definitely on a bit of a 50s trip, with plenty of rock ‘n’ roll riffs, and even some greaser era covers. His new song ‘You Belong To Me’, from his (very fine) new album Get Up, wouldn’t be out of place in a Sun Studios back catalogue.

However, this is no nostalgia tour. He also plays ‘Brand New Day’ and ‘Do What You Gotta Do’, both shiny new gems. Plus ‘Don’t Even Try’ (with David Walliams behind on the video screen). And all his classic hits.
