New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Greek-French vocal pop sensation
George Perris releases "How Many Does it Take", the first single from his highly-anticipated new international album "Who I'm Meant To Be".
The acclaimed Greek-French singer is returning to the USA with a new single and album, following a successful US and international tour as well as a PBS Special in 2016, "Live from Jazz at Lincoln Center".
"How Many Does it Take", co-written by
George Perris, Eric Rosse (Sara Bareilles, Maroon5, Tori Amos, Idina Menzel) and
Sasha Sloan (John Legend, Steve Aoki), touches a subject that is familiar to many families in the world: addiction. In particular, as seen from the eyes of someone watching a loved one suffering from alcoholism. The song's melody and raw lyrics are perfectly entwined with Perris' unique vocals. A powerful music video that symbolizes the entrapment addiction provokes has been released to accompany the release of the single.

Recorded in Los Angeles, New York, Montreal and Athens, Perris' second English album "Who I'm meant to be" is the artist's first attempt at co-writing an entire album and collaborating with producers and songwriters such as Eric Rosse,
Sasha Sloan, Mikal Blue etc.
Later in the year, Perris' 2nd Public Television Special, "Live at the Acropolis" will be aired on PBS stations across the USA. Filmed at the 2000-year-old Odeon of Herodes Atticus at the foot of the Acropolis, this new special featuring some of George's new songs as well as some from his repertoire and with Australian superstar Tina
Arena as his guest star promises to be an exciting new show!
Perris' debut Public Television concert special was filmed live at a sold-out performance at the prestigious Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City and was broadcast nationally on PBS reaching more than 50% of the country, 120 million viewers and more than 700 airings of the Special!

He tries to make amends with what's inside him
Every time I see him fighting
Never stops but he says he can
As he puts a bottle on the table
Can't resist but says he's able
And I try to understand
How he lost himself right at here at home
why does he think he's not enough?
Not enough
How many does it take
To feel nothing at all
How many does it take till there's nothing to recall
How many does it take Till the anger's washed away and you can't control the ache
How many, how many does it take
Title: "How Many Does it Take"
