The Summer of Bryan Adams

Join Bryan Adams for a journey back to the Summer of 1991 in which his single, "Everything I Do (I Do It For You)" notched up 16 weeks at no.1 and made chart history.

This year marks the 30th anniversary of Bryan Adams' record-breaking run of 16 consecutive weeks at no.1 with his single, "Everything I Do (I Do it For You)", a record which remains unbroken. Join Bryan as he recalls the sounds and events of that summer with a week-by-week account of chart history in the making. He also explains how it was almost the song that never happened and how his own record company attempted to withdraw the record from the shops. Especially for this show, Bryan has recorded a version of Slim Whitman's "Rose Marie", the previous record-holder of the longest-serving no.1 title, plus there are contributions from Gary Davies, Scott Mills and chart rivals, Right Said Fred. Hard to believe it was 30 years ago, but this show will make it feel like it was yesterday.
