André was discovered on Australia's Talent Show "New Faces" in 1990 after performing numerous Bobby Brown hits.
In 1992, André's singles "Drive Me Crazy" and "Gimme Little Sign" were released. In 1993, a self-titled album charted well in Australia and the hit singles "Funky Junky," "Let's Get It On," "Do You Wanna Dance" and "To the Top" all hit the Australian Top 50 charts. In 1993, "Gimme a Little Sign" picked up an ARIA Award as the highest selling single of the year.
André is perhaps best known for his second UK hit, "Mysterious Girl" which reached No. 2 in 1996, and hit No. 1 when re-released in 2004 following an appearance on "I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!" He previously had topped the UK charts with "Flava" and "I Feel You," both in 1996.
His success dried up somewhat when André attempted to make the transformation between teen-pop heartthrob and mature R&B singer with mixed results.
In 1998 he released a UK Top 10 version of "Kiss The Girl" from Disney's "The Little Mermaid" before being dropped from his record label and disappearing from the public eye. This was until his "I'm A Celebrity" appearance in 2004, which led to his third No. 1 and spawned the No. 3 UK hit "Insania." He reportedly wrote the song while filming the reality show, which featured Price. The public witnessed the relationship grow between the two, which turned them into tabloid staples.
André and Price were married and had a son, Junior, in 2005, and a daughter, Princess Tiaamii, in 2007. The couple released an album of duets, "A Whole New World," which reached No. 20 on the British charts in 2006.
News broke on 11 May 2009 that André and Price had separated after three and a half years of marriage. André said on the British TV show "This Morning" that there is little chance the couple will reconcile.
All I Ever Wanted
Peter Andre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I'm down
Having you near, keeps me sane
It's your smile keeping me warm night and day
So worthwhile, you know what I'm trying to say
Every night I get down on my knees and pray
That you'll always have the feeling that way
Baby you're all you are my fantasy
You're all I ever need and more
That's why I adore my cherie amour
When we talk
I know that you are a friend
When we touch
There is no need to pretend
It's so unique, I've never known something like this
No need to speak so much is said in one kiss
Every night I get down on my knees and pray
That you'll always have me feelin' that way
You're all I ever wanted
Baby you're all you are my fantasy
You're all I ever need and more
That's why I adore my cherie amour
If you leave me it would tear me apart
I trust you'll always take good care of my heart
Though people say, I'm crazy
I'm not livin' in a lovers dream
Are you out there baby?
I know you know
I know it shows
