Ronan Patrick John Keating (born 3 March
1977) is an Irish singer-songwriter, musician, and philanthropist who currently
hosts a breakfast show on Magic Radio. He debuted in 1994 alongside Keith Duffy,
Michael
Graham, Shane
Lynch, and Stephen
Gately, as the co-lead singer (with Gately) of
Irish group Boyzone. His solo career started in 1999
and he has recorded eleven albums. He gained worldwide attention
when his single "When You Say Nothing at All"
was featured in the film Notting
Hill and peaked at number one in several
countries.
As a solo artist, Keating has sold over 20
million records worldwide alongside the 25 million records with Boyzone, and in
Australia, he is best known as a judge on All Together Now and The X Factor from 2010 until 2014 and a
coach on The Voice in 2016. Keating is active
in charity work and has been a charity campaigner for the Marie Keating Foundation, which
raises awareness for breast cancer and is named after his mother, who died from the disease in 1998.
"When You Say Nothing at All" was
released as the debut solo single by Irish singer-songwriter Ronan Keating.
The song was recorded in 1999 for the soundtrack to the film Notting
Hill and also appeared on Keating's debut
solo album, Ronan.
The song was released
on July 26, 1999, in the United Kingdom. It peaked at number one in the UK,
Ireland and New Zealand. In the UK, the single was
certified gold.
In 2003, Keating re-recorded the song as a
duet with Mexican singer Paulina Rubio in spanglish,
which was released in Spain, Mexico and Latin America (excluding Brazil) to
promote Keating's second studio album, Destination. In Brazil, Ronan chose
the Brazilian singer Deborah Blando to re-record the song in English and English/Portuguese for
the 10 Years Of Hits album exclusive for that country. A music video
was recorded for this version with Deborah.
It's amazing how you
can speak right to my heart
Without saying any word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I can never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your
face
Lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
Saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hands
Says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can
hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near
You drown out the crowd (drown out the crowd)
Try as they may they could never define
What's been said between your heart and mine
The smile on your
face
Lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
Saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand
Says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
(You say it best when
you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all)
The smile on your
face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know that you need me.
