James Ingram is a multi-Grammy award winner who popularized songs such as “Just Once”, “One Hundred Ways”, “How Do You Keep the Music Playing”, “Somewhere Out There”, “There’s No Easy Way”, “Baby Come To Me”, “Whatever We Imagine”.

Believe it or not, I know all those songs but cannot claim that I can reach all the high notes!

Quincy Jones recognised his talent and chose him to perform both “Just Once” and “One Hundred Ways” in his album “The Dude”. Such album resulted in 3 Grammy nominations for James — Best New Artist, Best Pop Male Vocal, and Best R&B Vocal (which won him his 1st Grammy).

Here’s a video of him performing “Just Once” :

“Somewhere Out There” (theme song for “An American Tail”) — a much younger James Ingram

Talented right?

So when he was here for a one-night concert as part of the Mosaic music festival at the Esplanade, I knew I had to watch the show.

We also invited Patrick to join us. He sang "Just Once" several times during his stint at Boiler Room at St James Power Station
