Seth Swirsky (born August 5, 1960, New Haven, Connecticut) is an American pop music songwriter (including the Grammy-nominated "Tell It To My Heart"), author, recording artist, filmmaker, political writer and baseball memorabilia collector[2]—a self-described "Manic Expressive."[3]

Songwriter

In 1980, at the age of 20, Seth Swirsky wrote the national jingle for Thomas' English Muffins.[3]

After graduating from Dartmouth College in 1982,[4] Swirsky wrote the Grammy-nominated hit "Tell It To My Heart" with Ernie Gold for Taylor Dayne.[5] The song was on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart for six months in 1988, reaching No. 7 (gold single pictured left).[6]

The song was also a No. 1 hit in Germany, The Netherlands and Sweden and No. 3 in England.[5] In 2002, Kelly Llorenna’s version of the song went to No. 9 on the British charts.[7] The song won Swirsky an ASCAP songwriter’s award for being one of the most performed songs of the year.[8] In 2006, the song was recorded by the Royal Gigolos and spent two weeks on the Swiss charts at No. 2.[9] It was featured as a clue in The New York Times crossword[10] in 1998.

Swirsky wrote Dayne's follow-up top ten hit, "Prove Your Love," with Arnie Roman.[11] That song was a No. 7 Billboard pop hit as well as a No. 1 Billboard dance hit.[6] It reached No. 1 in Switzerland, No. 4 in Germany and No. 8 in England.[12]

Swirsky wrote "Love is a Beautiful Thing," which was recorded by Al Green for his 1995 album Your Heart's in Good Hands.[13] The song also appears on his 2002 Love, The Essential Al Green Greatest Hits Collection.[14] It was Green's last charted single (No. 56 in the UK).[15] The song was originally written for and recorded by Charles and Eddie on their 1991 debut album, Duophonic.[16] Green's version was featured in the movies The Pallbearer (1996),[17] Sorority Boys (2002),[18] Two Weeks Notice (2002)[19] and The Cookout (2004).[20] Krystal Harris sang it for the movie Legally Blonde in 2001.[21] Al Green's version was also used as Revlon's theme song in their international ad campaign in 2004.[22] Tina Turner's version of "Love Is a Beautiful Thing" was on the Princess Diana Tribute Album in 1997.[23]

Swirsky composed "Instant Pleasure" for Rufus Wainwright, which was featured in Adam Sandler's Big Daddy (1999).[24] The song also charted with Rockell in 2000. Swirsky's song "You Got The Power," written with Albert Hammond, was featured in the Bronson Pinchot movie Second Sight (1989).[25] He wrote "Did You Give Enough Love" with Arnie Roman for Celine Dion (a top 20 song in Canada),[3] "Tear it Up" with Gardner Cole for Michael McDonald[26] (a Billboard top 20 Adult Contemporary hit[26] and top 40 British charting single[27]), "After All"[3][26] for Air Supply, "Not Gonna Be the One" for Olivia Newton-John's Greatest Hits album, Back to Basics: The Essential Collection 1971–1992[28][29] (which reached No. 2 in Australia[30] and No. 12 in the UK[31]) and "Christmas Lullaby" for Faith Evans.[26] He also wrote (with Jack Ponti) "Hard On Me" for the 1980s German heavy metal band Bonfire.[32] Others he has written songs for include Jane Weidlin[33] of The Go-Go's, Peter Allen,[34] Lara Fabian, The Four Tops, The Spinners, Deniece Williams, Brenda K. Starr,[34] Trey Lorenz, Melissa Manchester, Rita Coolidge, Exposé[35] and Wild Orchid.

During his career he has collaborated with Eric Carmen[26] of Raspberries, David Pack[36] of Ambrosia, Marshall Crenshaw, Felix Cavaliere of The Rascals, Cy Curnin[37] of The Fixx, Eric Schenkman of Spin Doctors, Michael Bolton, Natalie Merchant, Jim Ellison[38] of Material Issue, Gerry Goffin, Chynna Phillips and Steve Kipner,[34] among others.[39]

Swirsky was featured as the "Writer of the Week" in the 2011 Nov./Dec.issue of American Songwriter Magazine.[40]

Mariah Carey plagiarism lawsuit

In 2000, Swirsky and co-writer Warryn Campbell filed a copyright infringement lawsuit claiming that the Mariah Carey song "Thank God I Found You" plagiarized "One of Those Love Songs", a song which Swirsky and Campbell wrote for Xscape's 1998 Traces of My Lipstick album.[41]

In the precedent-setting "Swirsky v. Carey" decision,[42] which clarified the standard for proving copyright infringement, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit overturned the initial 2002 dismissal of the case.[43][44] The case was settled out of court in April 2006.[45]

Recordings

Swirsky was named in Music Connection Magazine's December 2010 issue as one of the Hot 100 unsigned artists of the year.[46]

On August 7, 2007, they gave their first performance at Spaceland in Los Angeles to a packed house, as part of David Bash's International Pop Overthrow pop music festival.[67]

The CD was also ranked the "Top of the Pops - Overall Best of 2007" by VillageRecords.com.[68]

Baseball collection

Swirsky's baseball collection[79] includes the ball that went between Bill Buckner's legs in the 1986 World Series (it was originally owned by Charlie Sheen; Swirsky got it in April, 2000);[80] the only known bottle of 1986 sparkling wine from the Red Sox celebration that would never be;[81] Reggie Jackson's third home run ball from the 1977 World Series; a ball signed by The Beatles the night they played their famous Shea Stadium concert in 1965; Tom Seaver's 1969 World Series jersey; the only known surviving ball from the second game of Johnny Vander Meer's two consecutive no-hitters, and the letter written by baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis banning Shoeless Joe Jackson from playing Major League Baseball,[82] among other historic items. The Buckner ball went up for auction on October 15, 2011 for $1 million.[83] It failed to sell.[84] Many pieces in the collection were featured in baseball retrospectives at the Queens Museum of Art and The Bronx Museum of the Arts in 2004.[85]

The "Buckner Ball" that brought Ray Knight home with the winning run in Game 6 of the '86 World Series – voted by Mets fans as the most memorable moment in Shea Stadium history[86] – was on display at the Mets Hall of Fame & Museum at Citi Field during the 2010 baseball season.[87] The February 2011 edition of Tuff Stuff Magazine did a feature on Swirsky's memorabilia collection[88] as did the July edition of Collecting and Antiques Magazine.

Swirsky sold his 250 piece, historic collection on May 3, 2012 through Heritage Auctions for close to $1.5 million. The ball that went through Buckner's legs sold for $418,250.[89][90][91]

The documentary consists of filmed interviews that he conducted with people who had a personal story or recollection about themselves and one or all of The "Fab Four".[116] Some of the more than 110 individuals that Swirsky interviewed for the film are former personal assistant Fred Seaman, Sir Ben Kingsley, Graham Nash, Art Garfunkel, Justin Hayward of The Moody Blues, actor Jon Voight, Susanna Hoffs, former first daughter Luci Baines Johnson, former New York Yankee Bernie Williams, Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick, Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys, actor Henry Winkler, Indianapolis Colts football owner Jim Irsay, Smokey Robinson, Donovan, Beatles longtime producer Sir George Martin, May Pang, Beatles engineers Norman Smith, Ken Scott and John Kurlander and American cultural icons Frank Gifford and Bob Eubanks, among others.[117][118]

Beatles Stories made news when it was revealed by John Lennon's former personal assistant—one of the over 50 interviewees in the movie—that, by the time of his death, Lennon would have voted for Ronald Reagan in the 1980 elections and, that by the end of his life, he was embarrassed by the naivete of his song "Imagine".[119][120][121][122]

The Last Giant

Swirsky's short film The Last Giant[123] (which consisted of on-camera reminiscences of 1930s major league baseball All-Star Harry "The Horse" Danning, who was the last living member of the depression-era New York Giants baseball team until his death in 2004) was a 2007 Official Selection in both the (Washington) D.C.
