Julio Iglesias (born Julio José Iglesias de la Cueva; September 23, 1943) is a Spanish singer and songwriter whose romantic image, magnetic stage presence, and expressive music made him one of the best-selling artists of all time. By the early 21st century he had sold hundreds of millions of albums in more than a dozen languages. He has sold over 300 million records worldwide in 14 languages and released 77 albums. According to Sony Music Entertainment, he is one of the top 15 best-selling music artists in history. While Iglesias rose to international prominence in the 1970s and 1980s as a performer of romantic ballads, his success has continued on as he entered new musical endeavors. He is the father of singer Enrique Iglesias.
Iglesias was born in Madrid, the eldest son of Dr. Julio Iglesias Puga and María del Rosario de la Cueva y Perignat. Iglesias' father's family was from Galicia, and Iglesias' mother an Andalusian.
In the 1960s, he studied law in Madrid and was a goalkeeper for one of Real Madrid's football teams. On September 22, 1963, he was involved in a car crash, resulting in an injury to his spinal cord. He said, "I had a car accident; [a] very, very strange car accident...I lost control of the car and rolled it, resulting in what they call 'paraparexia,' which is not paraplegia. It's a compression in the [spinal] cord, in the sense of the neck...my spinal cord; and I was very, very ill for three years." His doctors thought he would never walk again; indeed, his legs were left permanently weakened, and they continued to require therapy as of late October 2010. However, slowly, he began recovering his health. To develop and increase the dexterity of his hands, he began playing guitar. When he recovered from his accident, he resumed academic studies and traveled to the United Kingdom to study the English language, first in Ramsgate, then at Bell Educational Trust's Language School in Cambridge.

Genres: Musical,I never had this feeling before
I never wanted anyone more
And something in your eyes tells me
You feel the way that I do, I feel like you do
If you would like to stay here all night
You know that I would say it's all right
Although I'm saying, yes, I confess, I've got more on my mind
'Cause I want more of you than your time
All of you, your body and soul
Every kind of love you can express
All the secret dreams you've never told
I want everything and I'll take nothing less
All of you as long as you live
Everything you've never shared before
I want all of you that you can give
All your joys and all your sorrows
Your todays and your tomorrows
How I'd long to feel the warmth of your touch
And then if I'm not asking too much
I'd like to spend my life wandering through
All the wonders of you, all the wonders of you
And when we're lying close in the dark
So close I feel each beat of your heart
I want you to reveal what you feel, all you hold deep inside
There is nothing I want you to hide
All of you, your body and soul
Everything you want this love to be
I want all of you, all that you can give
And in return for all you're giving let me give you all of me
All of you, your body and soul
Every kind of love you can express
All the secret dreams you've never told
I want everything, everything, everything
All of you as long as you live, as long as you live
Everything you want this love to be
I want all of you, all that you can give
