Jennifer Rush - Biography
Jennifer Rush (born Heidi Stern, September 28, 1960) is an American pop singer best known for the million-selling single "The Power of Love", which she co-wrote. She achieved success in the mid 1980s, mainly in Europe, with a number of hit singles and albums.
Rush's first album, titled with her original name of Heidi Stern, was released locally in Seattle, Washington, in 1979. After meeting singer, songwriter and producer Gene McDaniels in Seattle, Rush flew to LA to record demo songs with him. Rush credits McDaniels as being her first and most influential mentor as a songwriter and singer. In 1982, following McDaniels's persistence, Rush moved to Wiesbaden, Germany, where her father was engaged as an opera singer. As musicians, both her father and McDaniels were aware that Germany had been very welcoming to female singers. Although Rush is not of German heritage, she did speak some German, having spent part of her early childhood in Germany.
She scored hits as a singer throughout Europe, Africa and Asia with songs like "Ring of Ice," "Destiny," "I Come Undone," "Madonna's Eyes," "Flames of Paradise"(a duet with Elton John), "25 Lovers," "Till I Loved You"(a duet with Plácido Domingo), "Heart Over Mind", "You're My One and Only," "Who Wants to Live Forever" (a duet with Brian May from Queen), and "Amigos Para Siempre" (a duet with José Carreras).
Rush remains successful singing in both English and Spanish, where her next two albums reached number 1 for 14 weeks and 9 weeks respectively. In the UK, however, her chart career saw only a few sporadic bursts of success, but she did manage three top 50 albums. It was Rush's 1987 album Heart over Mind, featuring compositions by Desmond Child, Michael Bolton, and Diane Warren, and guitar work from Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi), that finally brought her Top 40 success in her home country, with "Flames of Paradise," the Elton John duet mentioned above. She also recorded the duets likewise mentioned above with Michael Bolton, Plácido Domingo and Brian May.
