From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia

Ronnie Carroll (18 August 1934) (real name Ronald Cleghorn) is a British singer and entertainer, born in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Through work in variety theatre he met his first wife, Millicent Martin. He was chosen as the singer for Britain's entry in the 1962 Eurovision song contest and with the song 'Ring-A-Ding Girl' achieved fourth place. This success was followed by two top 10 hits during 1962 and 1963, but a lack of good material meant that he could not sustain a chart presence.

In the 2005 British General Election, he stood for the Vote For Yourself Rainbow Dream Ticket Party, in Belfast. He is close friends with the party leader, Rainbow_George.

He currently resides in Hampstead, London.
