Leo Sayer

Gerard Hugh Sayer (born 21 May 1948), known by his stage name Leo Sayer, is an English singer and songwriter who has been active since the early 1970s. He is best known for his 1978 Grammy Award-winning song "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing". He has been an Australian citizen since 2009, and lives in New South Wales. Sayer launched his career in the United Kingdom in the early 1970s and became a top singles and album act, on both sides of the Atlantic in that decade. His first seven UK hit singles reached the top 10 – a feat first accomplished by his early-career manager, Adam Faith. His songs have been sung by other notable artists, including Cliff Richard, Roger Daltrey, and Three Dog Night.
