Why he might be annoying:

    He is a one hit wonder.
    His song was released as the disco era was coming to end; possibly why he never any more success.
    He released a best of album, despite having one hit.
    All of his other albums were almost completely overlooked.
    The video clip to ‘Born to be Alive’ wasn’t much, just him signing with a cane (which was his trademark) in a room lit with neon lights.
    He is sometimes mistaken as being from Italy.

Why he might not be annoying:

    'Born to be Alive' was massive hit all over the world, selling more than 23 million singles, and, is a disco classic.
    He won 52 gold platinum awards from over 50 different countries.
    He was born in France to a Spanish father and half Austrian, Italian mother.
    He was an English teacher.
    A young Madonna toured as a back up dancer for him before she was famous.
    'Born to be Alive' is catchy, and tells us ‘That we were born to be alive’ and ‘that it’s good to be alive.'
