Bryan Adams was already popular in Canada when the release of his third album 'Cuts Like A Knife' in 1983 brought him a large following in the USA. His fourth album, 'Reckless', often referred to as one of the most significant of the 1980s, sold over 4 million copies at the time and continues to sell now. His fifth album 'Into the Fire' went platinum.
'Waking Up The Neighbours', his sixth album in 1991, powered him to international stardom. The single '(Everything I Do) I Do For You' spent 16 weeks at number 1; it broke a UK record that had stood since 1955 and still stands today. Across in the USA it became the second largest selling single to 'We Are The World'. The song was featured in the film 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves' (1991) and for this Mr Adams received his first Academy Award nomination. He was also nominated for a Golden Globe.
42 film Directors' have used Adams' music as soundtrack - from A Night In Heaven (1983) to Bobby (2007).
Adams was awarded the C.M. (Member of the Order of Canada) on April 20th 1998 and the C.O. (Officer of the Order of Canada) on May 6th 1988 for his contribution to popular music and his philanthropic work. He was also inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame in 1998, and more recently inducted into the Music Hall of Fame at Canada's Juno Awards (the Canadian equivalent of the Grammys) in April 2006. Notably, Adams refuses to attend the awards; as his manager, Bruce Allen explains: "they turned their back on the biggest thing to come out of Canada"--in reference to the hit '(Everything I Do) I Do For You'.
Adams has been nominated for three Academy Awards for songwriting, and was recently nominated for his fifth Golden Globe (2007) for his songwriting in the film 'Bobby'.

Czasami trudno mi znaleźć słowa
Szukam tego idealnego zwrotu
By ci powiedzieć, że myślę o tobie cały czas
Taak, to jest miłość - i nauczyłem się już dość
By wiedzieć, że nigdy nie dam ci odejść
Nie, nie, nie - nie dam ci odejść
Kiedy tylko zechcesz, kiedy tylko będziesz potrzebowała
Zawsze dam z siebie wszystko, co najlepsze
Nic na to nie poradzę, uwierz mi
Zawsze ofiaruję wszystko, co we mnie najlepsze
Może nie zawsze wiem, co jest słuszne
Ale wiem, że chcę, byś tu była tej nocy
Sprawię, że ta chwila będzie trwała całe życie
O taak, to jest miłość - i naprawdę tyle dla mnie znaczy
Czuć to w każdym moim dotyku
Nie, nie, nie - nigdy nie będę miał dość
Kiedy tylko zechcesz, kiedy tylko będziesz potrzebowała
Zawsze dam z siebie wszystko, co najlepsze
Nic na to nie poradzę, uwierz mi
Zawsze ofiaruję wszystko, co we mnie najlepsze
Wszystko, co we mnie najlepsze
Taak, to jest miłość - i nauczyłem się już dość
By wiedzieć, że nigdy nie dam ci odejść
Nie, nie, nie - nie dam ci odejść................. Nigdy Kornelu !!! :***************

Bryan Adams is a legend… because I think he is one of those who did amazing music in about every stage of his musical career. He's also a good example that you don't need to take drugs or to do illegal and ugly things to be a successful musicians. All he does is write and perform amazing songs. Doesn't need fireworks or any other additional effects on stage to rock the audience. All he does is have an outstanding voice, amazing songs and a great guitar player!, Keith Scott and a great drummer on his side to support him… I was on two Bryan Adams concerts. At the first one I was only 7 years old… It was for sure one of the moments that have influenced my life a lot…
