Purple Reign

Pop Up And See The Singing Dentist

A British dentist has signed a million-pound record deal after stunning executives with his operatic interpretations of pop songs. Andrew Bain, a 34-year-old tenor, recorded a cover of Prince's Purple Rain in his bedroom and sent it to major music companies. Simon Cowell's record company, Sony BMG, offered him a contract so quickly he still has to carry out dentist ppointments for the next three months.
