I have to admit that the “big haired heartthrob” had be me laughing. Being a fan of Bobby Long I’m jumping on this opportunity to post a few of his songs along with the article. You can also find Bobby Long on twitter here:  BobbyLongNews   

Here is the article:

Fate appears to be showing a fondness for British singer-songwriter Bobby Long. While making the rounds of open-mike nights in London, the 22-year-old tunesmith happened to befriend actor-singer Robert Pattinson, the high-haired heartthrob whose every move is studied by the hordes of followers of the Twilight film series. Ever since Long showed Pattinson a song he’d cowritten called “Let Me Sign”, things have just been getting sweeter and sweeter for him.

“I played it to Robert and he took to it straight away,” recalls Long, travelling on the New Jersey Turnpike after a sold-out Manhattan club gig. “He likes my music a lot, so he’s always singing different songs of mine, but that’s the one he liked the most.”

Pattinson ended up singing “Let Me Sign” on the film’s soundtrack, and the Twittering Twilight tweens lit up, spreading the word on the ethereal song and its then-unknown cocreator. So far, the recognition sparked by his Pattinson connection has allowed Long to score major publishing deals in the U.S. and Britain, and to undertake a headlining North American tour, but he hasn’t been hounding his famous pal to get another one of his songs in Twilight‘s upcoming sequel, New Moon.
