Hi folks! turn around, look at what you see . . . UK TV channel ITV1 are using a stunning new orchestration of my hit ‘NEVERENDING STORY’ in their zany/fun animated clip for UEFA EURO 2024. Since the tournament is being held in Germany it does make sense - the original novel was by German author MICHAEL ENDE and the movie filmed at BAVARIA FILM STUDIOS in Munich. I also recorded my vocals with legendary music producer GIORGIO MORODER in Munich. Currently the SPOTIFY streams of the track are 2.3 million per month and fast approaching an all-time total of 140 million. A stage musical adaptation is now running in Barcelona after a successful year-long run in Madrid (where I attended the opening night to perform with the cast). After a recent bidding war, the story is being revived again for the big screen with a new joint venture between Michael Ende Productions and SEE-SAW FILMS, bringing the world of FANTASIA back to cinemas through multiple live-action films. Finally, a new 90-minute documentary called LIFE AFTER THE NEVERENDING STORY recently premiered in London (where I attended a Q&A with actress TAMI STRONACH who played the CHILD EMPRESS in the original movie) is now available on Blu-Ray DVD. Is this the song equivalent of THE TREBLE ⚽️ ⚽️ ⚽️ Maybe it’s just THE NEVERENDING STORY living up to it’s name 😊 #Limahl #NeverendingStory #EURO2024 #ITV1
