Bosson began to sing along with the radio as a toddler and, at the age of six, he began singing in front of audiences. His stage name of "Bosson" comes from the fact that his father's first name is Bo, and the singer is Bo's son.
Bosson's first band was called Elevate, which landed a recording contract with Virgin Records in the early 1990s, resulting in three hit singles. In 1994, Bosson was a finalist on the TV show "Star Search." Soon afterward, the sexy singer went solo.
Bosson exploded into worldwide fame with his global megahit single "One in a Million," which was featured in the Hollywood film Miss Congeniality, starring Sandra Bullock. The song earned Bosson a Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Song.
From there, Bosson toured as an opening act for Australia's Kylie Minogue and California's Britney Spears while writing songs for other major recording artists like Amy Grant and Al Di Meola.
What gets the singer-songwriter inspired to compose such romantic music for his adoring throngs of female fans?
"It can be enough to turn off the lights and light some candles and just sit alone somewhere and think a lot," said Bosson. "Everything happens inside of you, it's your thoughts. It's just that you have to put yourself in that frame of mind."
"Every song has its own little story that tells you something," the songwriter emphasized. "That's when you can relate to a situation, when somebody else is singing about something that you are feeling right in that moment. That's when you feel that you're not alone in a situation, that there are others that feel the same way."
What is Bosson's advice for all the singers and songwriters trying to make it in the music business? "If you just follow your heart and do what feels right, people will hear that."
All Because Of You
Bosson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's all because of you
Yeah you
It's all because of you
Nobody else makes me feel like you do
I have the time of my life
And it's all because of you
For coming into my life
If I was able to tell the whole world how I feel
My love is for real
If I was able to write a song
I would have filled it with love
If I was able to open my heart you would see
I'm so happy
Chorus
If I was able to live my life (over again)
I'd share the minutes with you
If I was able to count the times you bring out the sun
When I'm feeling down
If I was able to explain
How you have opened my eyes
I sure have tried about thousand times
I just feel so alive
Chorus (2x)
I found the meaning
I cherish my life
Now I see everything in colors so bright
And when it's raining
I still feel the sun
So take a good look
I'm walking clouds
