Will Young

Crying On The Bathroom Floor

Will, the first self-professed Marxist to win Pop Idol, marries his soulful voice to smart modern pop numbers by female vocalists. Highs include Clare Maguire’s Elizabeth Taylor and the title track, MUNA’s ethereal paean to heartbreak.

Always self-assured, Young has proved strong-willed enough to carve out a unique niche in the pop world.
