His most widely known international hit, however, is 'Suddenly' which was used as the wedding song by the TV soap 'Neighbours' during one of TV's most famous weddings ever - that of Scott (Jason Donovan) and Charlene (Kylie Minogue).
He also had a roll in a Mad Max movie, "Beyond Thunderdome". He played one of the hench men to the roll Tina Turner played.
Suddenly
Angry Anderson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A loving heart, an open mind to see the real me
And I hoped that you would be the one
A chance to talk, a chance to grow
I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow
I've found the words I need to say
Suddenly you're hearing me
So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you
Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you
Now I know that you are mine
You bring me your love and peace of mind
You see the real me and I know that you're the key
Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am
Suddenly you're hearing me
So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you
Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you
Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am
Suddenly you're hearing me
So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you
Suddenly, I believe
You're all I want, all I need you to be
Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you
Just you, it's you
The lyrics to Angry Anderson's song Suddenly describe the feeling of finding someone who accepts you for who you are - flaws and all - and the excitement that this brings. The first verse expresses the hope of finding someone with an open mind to truly see the real self. The second verse highlights the potential for growth in a relationship and the importance of taking risks to express oneself. The chorus repeats 'Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am' to emphasise the thrill of being accepted by another person. The bridge then confirms the singer's newfound belief in the other person and their desire to know everything about them.
The song's lyrics speak to a universal feeling of wanting to be understood and loved for who we are. The use of the word 'suddenly' throughout the chorus reinforces the idea that finding that connection with another person can be unexpected and exciting. The repetition of the line 'every part of me needs to know every part of you' shows the singer's eagerness to deeply understand and connect with the other person. The song's positive message of acceptance and connection has made it a favourite for weddings and other celebrations of love.

If you were young in the 80s this song brings back such a flood of emotions. The iconic wedding of Scott and Charlene, but also all the hope, dreams and nervous excitement we had for our own futures. Beautiful that this song can bring that all back and still remain so timeless.
@ajs41
All true. I was 9 when Scott and Charlene's wedding was on TV in the UK.
@gdragonstan

This has got to be one of the most underrated and underappreciated records of all time - such a great song, Angry Anderson's vocals are sublime - an alround awesome work of 80's art X
