Epic New Single from Pete Burns Debuts

Sept. 7, 2010 - PRLog -- Burns, whose song "You Spin Me Round" has been a dance music cornerstone since its 1984 release, is a music icon notorious for his flamboyant appearance, powerful vocal delivery, and penchant for making mincemeat out of society's sacred cows. In this new track, he takes on a hot issue that’s fuelling the tabloids and gossip sites: celebrity relationships, which can be both a stairway to heaven and highway to hell for all concerned.

“Never marry an icon / to get famous,” the lyrics chide. “Never marry an icon / they’re outrageous. Never marry an icon /rebel rebel to the core. Never marry an icon / cos they’re always wanting more.”

Co-written with Adam Karayiannis and Kyle Mackenzie of Dirty Disco fame, “Never Marry an Icon” is a hard-hitting and propulsive track, with thriving dance beats and synthesizer riffs swirling around Pete's distinctive vocals. When he leavens the lyrics with his rebellious humor, the result is a tough, aggressive record that will take no prisoners on the dance floor.

The track is being released via Bristar Records, a rapidly evolving digital label owned by Steve Coy, Pete’s manager and long-time Dead Or Alive bandmate. Steve, who has been a driving force behind the biggest Pete Burns / Dead Or Alive successes to date, recently confirmed that “Never Marry An Icon” will be available on iTunes and other major online music stores (Amazon MP3, Nokia, e-Music, Napster).
