After leaving PWL in 1991, Jason starred in a revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical 'Joseph & His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat'. His version of the show's 'Any Dream Will Do' reached the UK #1 spot.
After numerous film and television projects Jason signed to Polydor Records and recorded a third album, "All Around The World", in 1993. This album was never released in his homeland Australia. The album was preceded by a UK Tour and 2 hit singles; "Mission Of Love" and a cover of "As Time Goes By". By the time the album was released, interest had dried up. The final single "All Around The World" was released in 1993.
Despite a high public profile, Donovan's star faded very quickly after his West End success. Indeed, for a brief period, Donovan was on the receiving end of open hostility from the same LGBT community which had supported his PWL era career after he sued a UK magazine for libel after it suggested - falsely - that Donovan may be homosexual.
Donovan is partnered with Angela Malloch, and they have two children together. He now works as the Heart.fm radio studios which broadcasts across the country
Sealed With A Kiss
Jason Donovan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
Darling, I promise you this
I'll send you all my love everyday in a letter
Sealed with a kiss
Yes it's gonna be a cold, lonely summer
But I'll fill the emptiness
I'll send you all my dreams everyday in a letter
Sealed with a kiss
I'll see you in the sunlight
I'll hear your voice everywhere
I'll run to tenderly hold you
But darling you won't be there
I don't want to say goodbye for the summer
Knowing the love we'll miss
Oh, let us make a pledge to meet in September
And seal it with a kiss
Yes, it's gonna be a cold, lonely summer
But I'll fill the emptiness
I'll send you all my dreams everyday in a letter
Sealed with a kiss [Repeat: x3]
The lyrics of the song "Sealed With A Kiss," recorded and released in 1989 by Australian singer Jason Donovan, tell a story about a couple who must say goodbye for the summer. The singer promises his loved one that, despite the distance, he will continue to express his affection by sending her letters filled with his love and dreams. The lyrics are packed with emotional themes about love, longing, and separation.
In the first verse, the singer expresses how despite having to say goodbye to his love, he will always send his love to her through letters. He assures her that he will make sure every letter contains his love and affection. The second verse implies that the summer will be a cold and lonely one, showcasing how the singer feels deeply about being far away from his love. Despite everything, he promises to keep sending letters with his dreams to keep their love alive. The bridge expresses the difficulty of the separation and how the singer will long to hear his love's voice and hold her despite knowing it's impossible.
The final verse expresses the singer's wish to make a pledge with his love to meet again in September. The pledge seals their love with a kiss, and he promises to keep sending those letters until they meet again. The song is emotionally stirring and conveys the power of love over distance and the importance of keeping a promise to a loved one.

Хоть сказали мы "прощай" этим летом,
Милая, слово даю:
Я буду слать любовь
Каждый день в конверте,
Что скрепит поцелуй.
Одиноко будет нам мёрзлым летом,
Но я в пустоту пою:
Я буду слать мечты
Каждый день в конверте,
Что скрепит поцелуй.
Увижу в лучах солнца,
Звучит твой голос везде!
Бегу с тобою обняться,
Но милая, тебя там нет.
Не хочу прощаться я этим летом,
И нашу любовь терять.
Давай друг друга мы в сентябре вот этом
Будем вновь целовать
***********************
Одиноко будет нам мёрзлым летом,
Но я в пустоту пою:
Я буду слать любовь
Каждый день в конверте,
Что скрепит поцелуй.
/Что скрепит поцелуй/
/Что скрепит поцелуй/.

Why "old man" ? I'm almost 50 too and I don't feel like an "old man" yet. 🙂

Какие воспоминания. ☺️ Мои 16 лет. Первая моя дискотека и этот клип во весь экран. Это конечно классика. Другого исполнения не слышала и не хочу. Для меня именно Донована исполнение - это приятное и вместе с тем грустное воспоминание моей ушедшей юности.

@Лёвен Брау Уже на дискотеках в 1987- 1988 годах стояли видики и тв, где мы смотрели и слушали любые клипы
Лёвен Брау
Странные воспоминания..
Песня 1989 года. В СССР в то время слово "клип" никто не знал.
Да и потом, "дискотека", "во весь экран"...
В то время "экран" представлял из себя большое белое полотнище из винила.
А чтобы что-то показать на нем, требовался кинопроектор и, соответственно, катушка с киноплёнкой.
Вы действительно в 1989 году видели этот "клип", снятый на киноплёнку? 😵
Вы ничего не путаете?..😄
