Richard Marx


Richard Marx



The Windy City. Chicago, Illinois

was graced with another boy.

Nineteen sixty three the year

a happy family in good cheer.



Father in the musical game

enjoying local, some national fame.

Mother a singer by choice

little said about her voice.



Still in his teens he met a star

Lionel Richie was going far.

Richie said he should move to LA

a move Marx blessed to this day.



Richie troubled with his first album

backing vocal he couldn't fathom.

Marx moved in sorted it out

proving he was some standout.



The LA move four years now

Marx still no cash cow.

Then a call from EMI

Marx new he'd hit the bulls eye.



Write and record as you will

for Marks, what a thrill.

His first seven in the top five

an explosive way to arrive.
