Corey Mitchell Hart (born May 31, 1962) is a Canadian singer, best known for his hit singles "Sunglasses at Night" and "Never Surrender". He has sold over 16 million records worldwide and scored nine US ''Billboard'' Top 40 hits. In Canada Hart has amassed 30 Top 40 hits, including 11 in the Top 10, over the course of 30 years in the music industry. Nominated for the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1984, Hart is also a multiple Juno award nominee and winner in Canada. He has also been honoured by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) and the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada (SOCAN).〔()〕 ==Early life== Hart was born on May 31, 1962 in Montreal, Quebec, the youngest of five children. He grew up in Montreal, Spain, Mexico City and Key Biscayne, Florida as a young boy. He became fluent in three languages (English, Spanish and French) due to his upbringing in these locations. Hart's parents, Mina (Weber) and Bert Hart, separated when he was 10 years old. Hart then returned to Montreal to live with his mother and older brother Robbie. He shared an especially close relationship with his mother, to whom Hart's first album was dedicated.〔''First Offense'', liner notes, 1983.〕 Hart's lack of contact and intimacy with his father pained him throughout his life and coloured many of his compositions, such as the 1998 song "Reconcile."〔''Jade'', Sony Music Canada, 1998.〕 Hart's first experience as a performing artist came at age 11, when he sang "Ben" for Tom Jones in Miami. He also recorded songs with Paul Anka in Las Vegas during this time period. In 1980 Hart represented Canada in the World Popular Song Festival in Tokyo (along with singer Dan Hill), marking his first public performance of original material. Hart also met Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Christopher Cross at the competition. Back in Canada, Hart reached out to Billy Joel who was on tour in the Montreal area at the time. Joel's backup band contacted him and Hart ended up recording several demos with them in Long Island, New York. Hart worked with several other notable Canadian studio musicians on demos before finally signing to a major label, Aquarius Records, in 1982 at the age of 20. Several songs on his first album, such as "The World is Fire," reflect the many rejections and tribulations Hart encountered along the path to getting a recording contract.〔''Phoenix Gazette'', Oct. 3, 1984.〕
