Andrew Strong

Andrew Strong (born 14 November 1973) is an Irish singer and the son of Irish musician and singing coach Robert (Rob) Strong. He grew up in Omagh, County Tyrone (where his father lived while performing with showbands), and Naas, County Kildare. He starred as Deco Cuffe in the 1991 cult film The Commitments based on the book by Roddy Doyle, having been cast at only 16 years of age with a voice sounding much older. In 1991 he was nominated for a Grammy Award as a member of The Commitments.

Since then, Strong has released a number of albums, including a platinum disc, and toured with artists including The Rolling Stones, Elton John, Prince, Lenny Kravitz and Bryan Adams.

Strong does not tour with the official tribute act to the Commitments, although he did perform with the original cast for the 20th anniversary concert in the O2 in Dublin in March 2011.

Tours and Other Projects

In 2003, Andrew formed The Bone Yard Boys with Bent Larsen Petersen, a partnership that endures to the present day. The Bone Yard Boys music is more contemporary with shades of Bowie, U2, Soundgarden, Sly, and “pretty much everything what inspires them”

Destination Anywhere

Said to the man at the railroad station
"I want a ticket, just for one"
He said, "Well, if you insist
Where you wanna go, Miss?"
Oh, destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
You see my baby don't love me no more
This old world ain't got no back door
He looked at me with a funny face and said
"Are you sure you wanna go just anyplace?"
I said, "If you ever loved someone, the way I loved that man
Surely mister ticket agent, you should understand"
Destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
You see my baby don't want me no more
This old world ain't got no back door
'Cause every day, it would swing both ways
And we'd go on back to happy yesterdays
When I loved him tenderly
And all he needed was me
As I stepped through the window of the train
I thought, I heard my baby call my name
But it was just the conductor saying
"Which stop would you prefer?"
Oh, destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
You see my baby don't love me no more
And this old world ain't got no back door
Destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
Destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
Destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
Destination anywhere
East or west, I don't care
Destination, destination anywhere
East or west, I just don't care
Destination anywhere
