Daily Mirror Blind Item

In today's Daily Mirror, we asked: Which ageing crooner is so infatuated with a younger woman who works for him - he's taken a vow of celibacy until he gets her? The fella in question has bombarded her with roses by the dozen and has even penned songs for her from across the Atlantic.

Your extra clue: It's quite touching when you think about it.

From across the atlantic...think he is British?

mazshad said...

I'm thinking the other way around - American crooner ! Tony Bennett ??

Princess Shyness said...

Hmm. . . Tom Kelly? He's an American songwriter who co-wrote the Divinyls classy hit single: "I Touch Myself". It may be obscure, but that's where the clues led me.

David D. said...

Isn't one of Phil Collins's songs "Invisible Touch"?

Carrie L. said...

I thought the same thing, David D. You are correct.

Enny said...

Rod Stewart?

West End Girl said...

Andy Williams? He was over here recently promoting his latest greatest hits CD.

Neil Diamond?

"touching me, touching you", anyone?

von said...

Oh, I like the Neil Diamond guess. That sounds right, Napoleon.

i immediately thought rod stewart as well - if you touch my body....

Daveb said...

If its a British source would Bryan Ferry qualify as an "ageing crooner"?

mooshki said...

Wow, everything about this screams "CREEPY!!!"

mrchgrl said...

Clearly Neil Diamond! The extra clue gives it away!

Arkata said...

It's GOT to be David Cassidy. Wasn't he the answer to the revealed blind last year about the aging crooner who kept hitting on a much younger woman at a party? And he has a song called All I Want to Do Is Touch You and an album called Touch of Blue.

Who wrote "Sometimes When We Touch"?

Tom Jones sings A Woman's Touch & Touch My Heart

Good Lord, I need to go to bed. I read that as, 'aging coroner' and got really creeped out. Would this be Robbie Williams?

Maja With a J said...

THIS HAD BETTER NOT BE CHRIS ISAAK.

Judi said...

LOL, MadLyb! I think NappyInRags has it - Neil Diamond.

Rod Stewart. "If you want my body, just reach out and touch me..."
