Corey Hart - Never Surrender

Corey Mitchell Hart (born 31 May, 1962, in Montreal, Canada) is a Canadian musician. He was raised in Montreal, Spain, Mexico City, and Key Biscayne, Florida, and was raised solely by his mother from the age of 10 onward (when his parents divorced). Hart was prodigious as a teenager and recorded demos with Billy Joel and Eric Clapton before signing to a major label at the age of 20. Corey Hart's first album, released in 1983, First Offense, featured the hit song "Sunglasses at Night". The album sold well in both Canada and the United States. The follow-up album was Boy in the Box in 1985 featuring the song "Never Surrender," which was his highest-charting single. Hart became so popular, particularly amongst adolescents, that he was offered the role of Marty McFly in the film Back to the Future, which he turned down. (The role eventually went to another Canadian native, Michael J. Fox.) Hart continued to record music, but his commercial success was significantly reduced after Box. Today, Hart lives in the Bahamas with his wife, French-Canadian singer Julie Masse, and their four children. He works primarily as a songwriter, writing music for his wife and other artists, including Celine Dion.
