Paul Lekakis (born October 1966) is a Greek-American actor, model, filmmaker and club music / Hi-NRG singer, who was discovered for his musical and dancing skills at a nightclub while on assignment as a model in Italy. ==Music career== His debut single, "Boom Boom (Let's Go Back to My Room)" was released in 1987. The hit version was produced by the Italo disco producers Miki Chieregato, Tom Hooker and Roberto Turatti, with additional production by Ric Wake. The song was originally released on ZYX Records and peaked at #43 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, #60 on the UK Singles Chart, #2 in Canada and #1 on the Pop charts in Australia (for 5 weeks) and Japan. This single received attention for its suggestive lyrics (''Boom boom boom / Let's go back to my room / So we can do it all night / And you can make me feel right'') and is Lekakis's best-known song. This led to a recording contract with Sire Records, who released his debut album ''Tattoo It'' in 1990. The album included the Top 20 Hot Dance Club Play hit, "My House." Lekakis sang the title track to the British film ''The Fruit Machine'', which was released in 1988. In the US, the film was renamed ''Wonderland''. This song was produced by Stock Aitken Waterman. Lekakis has since had significant success in the dance music genre with the club hits "Let It Out," "Assume the Position," and "(I Need A) Vacation." In late 2006, Lekakis filmed a music video for a remix of "Boom Boom (Let's Go Back to My Room)" in Palm Desert, California. The track featured slightly different lyrics to the original (i.e., "...how would you like to come back for another boom boom"). The video was directed by Walid Azami. In late July 2007, the 20th anniversary remix appeared on the ''Billboard'' dance chart. In 2009, "Boom Boom" ranked #83 on VH1's "Top 100 Greatest One-Hit Wonders Of The 80's" list. In 2012, after 5 years of not releasing music, Lekakis returned with the aptly titled song "I Need A Hit". In September 2012, Lekakis released the digital download-only single "Meet Me On The Dancefloor". 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「Paul Lekakis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
