"Born from an egg on a mountain top, the punkiest monkey that ever popped, he knows every magic trick under the sun, to tease the Gods and everyone and have some fun..."

Being born a magical monkey always had its drawbacks. Teased at school for his thick and luscious full coat of hair he found that life would be easier if he just shaved it all off. So he did and like Samson found that he lost his magical powers. Such was life!

Although he had lost his magic he had not lost his beautiful voice and a career with the Vienna Boys Choir beckoned until one day during a high school musical his voice cracked whilst singing "Yesterday" accompanied only by the flute. When it was discovered that the alleged castrato was not an actual castrati he was banished to Australia to spend his days singing "Oi Oi Oi".

After much soul searching around Australia and the world during which time he held down many jobs in all walks of industry he finally settled down on the Gold Coast where he now works for an alcoholic beverages company as an official taster.

Following a horrible accident involving a combine harvester and a post hole digger Paul found that he could once again sing in an un-naturally high voice. Looking to take his new found skills to the world he sought employment in all places that would make use of such a talent....unfortunately they are few and far between.The Vienna Boys Choir would not let him re-apply and Boys To Men had just split up.

Then he found Men Wot Sing and life took on new meaning! He could now sing and dance about like a complete twit and not be thought of as any stranger than the other assorted fellows he shared the stage with ... well maybe not all of them! There are some very strange Baritones going around and have you seen the Tenors?!!!
