Formerly the frontman of the short-lived bands Kat Kool & the Kool Cats, Streetband and Q-Tips, his subsequent solo success made him a teen idol.

Released in 1983, his debut album No Parlez, the first of three UK number one albums, turned him into a household name. In 1985 he won ‘Best British Male’ at the Brit Awards.
In July 1985, Young appeared at Live Aid held at Wembley Stadium, London, performing the Band Aid hit “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”
