Bobby G (also known as Bobby Gee) (born Robert Alan Gubby, 23 August 1953) is a member of pop group Bucks Fizz, best known for winning the 1981 Eurovision Song Contest and for achieving three UK number one hits with "Making Your Mind Up" (1981), "The Land of Make Believe" (1981) and "My Camera Never Lies" (1982). == Early career == G was born in Epsom, Surrey, England. After leaving school at 14, he began working in a number of trades, the most significant of these being the building trade. At the same time he joined a part-time rock band, which went under many different names. In his late teens, he set up his own building business, based on the knowledge he'd gained from his experience and from his father, who was also a builder. Throughout much of the 1970s he remained doing this, as well as a plumbing business later. By the end of the decade, both businesses had failed, leaving him with heavy debts as well as having chalked up two marriages – both which ended in divorce. In 1979, G decided to embark on a career in music and began touring pubs and clubs as a solo singer/guitarist. In 1980, G auditioned for a role in the West End musical ''Jesus Christ Superstar'' and won the part of Pontius Pilate (understudy). The musical had been running for eight years at the Palace Theatre (then the longest running musical ever in the UK), but it was in this year that it ended. Bobby G then went on to perform as a resident singer in a local Country Club. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bobby G」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
