Dont Shed a Tear was hit reaching number 9 on the Billboard chart from Paul Carrack. Paul was a former member of the English band Roxy Music. He attempted a solo career prior to joining Mike + The Mechanics. After joining that band he tried a solo career also. Thus, came this hit from the album One Good Reason. I am a big fan of Pauls voice. Anyone familiar with Paul knows that he did the lead vocals for Squeeze with their hit song, Tempted. This song is great for right after a break-up. It has that edge to it.
