Ronan Keating performing on three fronts

Ross Purdie, National Entertainment Writer, AAP April 12, 2011


Having patched up his family difficulties, Ronan Keating is looking ahead and knuckling down.

The Irish singer returned to Sydney this week with a new album to promote, a first film role to shoot and a second judging stint on The X-Factor to negotiate.

Keating confirmed his next 12 months are already mapped into a hectic working schedule that combines his passions for music, film and TV.

"It's funny how it all happens at once sometimes and then you might have a year where nothing's going on," Keating told AAP in Sydney.

"You kind of make hay while the sun shines and keep going."

Keating's first project of 2011 has been recording an album with legendary singer songwriter Burt Bacharach in New York, called When Ronan Met Burt.

A covers album of Bacharach's songs, including Arthur's Theme and I'll Never Fall In Love Again, Keating was accompanied by a 40-piece orchestra and session musicians from Michael Jackson's former stable.

The collaboration was a dream come true for Keating who has been a fan of Bacharach's music since he was a child.

"You wouldn't believe how involved he was," Keating said of 82-year-old Bacharach, who co-produced the album.

"He listened to everything that went on, he's so clued in and talented, and more enthusiastic than ever."

Keating could adopt a few tips as he looks to crack his pursuit of acting with a starring role in the Australian-made film, Goddess, which started shooting on Monday.

He's previously been turned down for roles in Moulin Rouge and The Hobbit, but believes two years of acting training has prepared him for the new comedy musical.

The 34-year-old plays the role of a marine biologist opposite actress Laura Michelle Kelly, most recently seen as Mary Poppins on Broadway,who has helped Keating prepare for life on set.

"I'm loving it so far because you actually become the character," he said.

"You have this amazing back story even though the back story isn't in the movie in any way, so I've loved doing all the research."

Music will always be Keating's number one priority, but he hopes that acting could develop steadily alongside his pop career.

The former Boyzone star realises a lot of hard work lies ahead, but has already lined up another role to start in September.

"Acting is totally different from music," Keating said.

"I've been performing on stage singing and dancing since I was 16, but going into a studio and looking someone in the eye and delivering lines, listening to what they have to say and bouncing back is an incredible head space to be in."

And what of that other head space - as a judge on X Factor?

Keating confirmed he's close to signing on for the second series of the Channel Seven talent show.

With three careers stretching in tandem, a few recent words offered by Sir Ian McKellen could be applied to either.

"Ian gave me some kind advice about acting, which was walk into the room, look them in the eye and tell them the truth.

"When you think about it is exactly what you do."

When Ronan Met Burt by Ronan Keating is out now.

Ronan Keating & Burt Bacharach When Ronan Met Burt Review
Album. Released 21 March 2011.

BBC Review


Adrian Edwards 2011-03-22

Ten songs may seem a short measure for an album like this, but a quick glance down its titles – The Look of Love, Walk on By, I’ll Never Fall in Love Again – guarantees a level of expertise that has made Burt Bacharach a legendary songwriting figure in his lifetime. This Ronan Keating-starring collection also includes several numbers written outside Bacharach’s celebrated partnership with lyricist Hal David, including Arthur’s Theme and This House Is Empty Now, with Elvis Costello as lyricist. Neither song, from a little later, quite showcase Bacharach at his innovative best. His collaboration with David on the score for Lost Horizon, released in 1973, was a failure and seemed to knock some of the stuffing out of him.

Keating arrives fresh to Bacharach’s songs with an awareness of their recorded history, yet no slave to their past interpretations. He may not possess the velvet tones of George Michael or the debonair vocal style of Robbie Williams, two of his contemporaries who have previously mined the standards catalogue, yet there’s a sincerity and sense of discovery to his approach that, despite any misgivings regarding the lack of sonority in his voice, is rather endearing. Bacharach, who produced this album alongside Greg Wells, is one of several arrangers. We can relish his talents on the chirpy Something Big and the film song My Little Red Book, as individual and challenging to sing as What’s New Pussycat?, from the same film. Keating tackles both these numbers with great zest, giving them welcome new leases of life.

He sings the very familiar I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself at a slower speed than Dusty Springfield, with the intention of giving the song a greater gravitas, and only just falls short of her classic interpretation. All of the sympathetic arrangements display an innate understanding of the Bacharach style, the unorthodox phrasing, the twists in the tunes that have made him a unique and influential songwriter. And with this release, Keating reaffirms his pre-eminence as a major figure in the pop world.
