Uploaded By ► Red Grey Matter ’’Enjoy Your Day’’Buy Album Ready to Rumble Johnnie Lovesin ➥ Johnnie Lovesin (May 22, 1949 – February 23, 2019) was a Canadian musician, most noted as a two-time Juno Award nominee for Most Promising Male Vocalist at the Juno Awards of 1984 and the Juno Awards of 1985. Originally from Val-d’Or, Quebec, he was first active as a musician on the Yorkville scene in Toronto in the 1960s. His first band was Black Ballet in 1969. Over the next number of years he performed with the bands Johnnie Lovesin and the Invisible Band; Johnnie Lovesin and the Sidewalk Commandos; Johnnie Lovesin and The Next; Red Hot and Blue; and as a solo artist under the stage name Crazy John Lovesin, the Ace from the Invisible Band opened for The Ramones at a show in Toronto, one Toronto Sun music critic asserted in his review that Lovesin had blown the Ramones off the stage. He released several singles during his early career. He released his debut album Set the Night on Fire in 1980, and followed up with Rough Side of Town in 1983. In addition to his Juno Award nominations for Most Promising Male Vocalist, he was nominated for a U-Know Award for Best Male Vocalist in 1985. He then signed to A&M Records, which rereleased Rough Side of Town and his follow-up album Tough Breaks. Soon after releasing Tough Breaks, however, Lovesin suffered a brain aneurysm shortly after performing at the city’s annual New Year’s Eve show at Nathan Phillips Square, and withdrew from the music business for a time to recover. Upon his return to music, he became leader of the house band at Toronto’s Matador Club, and released the new album Ready to Rumble independently in 1996. After moving to Jordan, Ontario, he still performed occasional shows in Toronto including birthday shows in 2010 and 2016. Lovesin died unexpectedly three months shy of his 70th birthday, on the evening of February 23, 2019. Lyrics: Sleepless I can’t sleep in the daytime. I can’t sleep at night. I can’t sleep with you baby. Cuz girl, you treat your daddy right. I get so sleepless, sleepless over you. I get so sleepless, sleepless and blue. I can’t sleep when it’s sunny. I can’t sleep in the rain. I can’t sleep with you baby. Cuz girl, you drive your man insane. I get so sleepless, sleepless over you. I get so sleepless, sleepless and blue. Instrumental Late at night when I’m dreaming, How long in my bed? I toss and I turn and a fever, it burn. And I think I’m going out of my head. I get so sleepless, sleepless over you. I get so sleepless, babe, sleepless and blue. I get so sleepless, sleepless and blue. Sleepless and blue. Sleepless and blue. Sleepless and yeah. Welcome to ᖇᗴᗪ ᘜᖇᗴ Y ᗰᗩ TTᗴᖇ Club! Enjoy Your Day!
