When I lived in London, I went to his open-air concert in Hyde
Park in June -- my most favorite month in Englandt. To be honest I didn’t think he sang too well. Nonetheless,
he has this irresistible charm together with his husky voice. A classmate in
primary school in the late 70s adored him; at his current age of 71, Rod
Stewart looks even more attractive to me.
Where is his charm coming from? The overall sense of “B” class, if
I can put it that way. He is not that tall, but exudes the unique
approachableness. One of his most popular songs is actually about a total loser
Some Guys Have All the Luck; “Seems so unfair when there's love everywhere but
there's none for me.” I can relate to that, maybe quite a few people as well.
