Stephen Bishop (born November 14, 1951) is an American singer and guitarist. He had a major hit in 1977 with the song "On and On"; his other hits include "Save It for a Rainy Day", "Everybody Needs Love" and "It Might Be You", the theme from the movie Tootsie. He has also performed many movie themes, including the theme from National Lampoon's Animal House which he sang in falsetto.
Bishop was born in San Diego, California. His song "Separate Lives", from the movie White Nights, was nominated for an Academy Award in 1985, losing to "Say You, Say Me" from the same film. Bishop wrote the song about his breakup with actress Karen Allen, who also appeared in Animal House.
Bishop also wrote the theme to the 1984 remake of the movie Unfaithfully Yours, entitled "One Love (Unfaithfully Yours)". The song received regular airplay during this period, usually on soft rock / adult contemporary stations. Despite moderate radio success a soundtrack for the movie was never released. The studio retained rights to the song and prevented it from appearing on any of Bishop's best-of compilations. The only known pressing of this song is on a promotional vinyl 45.
Bishop had a cameo role in National Lampoon's Animal House as the aspiring folksinger whose guitar is smashed by John Belushi. Bishop still keeps the smashed guitar as a memento. He appeared in another John Landis movie, The Blues Brothers, as the 'charming trooper' who breaks his watch during the mall chase.
Patrick Bateman, the fictional anti-hero from Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho, is an avowed fan of Stephen Bishop.

Having a little fun on a Friday night. This is Stephen Bishop's On and On... possibly one of my favorite songs of all time. Too bad Flickr only allows 90 seconds. Listen to the cat trying to harmonize in the background. :-) |
