What Is Tourettes?

Tourette Syndrome is characterised by involuntary verbal and physical tics. These are sometimes the focus for jokes and ridicule, particularly when the individual has coprolalia or copropraxia, which involves rude words, phrases or gestures. These can appear in a complex form, such as an insulting phrase directed to a colleague or member of the public. But Tourettes is no laughing matter, and can be very disabling. At the least intrusive end, repeated movements can lead to repetitive strain injury, embarrassment and self-consciousness. A person may feel they have to avoid public places at Christmas due to a seasonal tic “Santa’s your mum.” At the more extreme end, some Touretters have had surgery to partially paralyse their legs to reduce kicking tics that prevent them from sleeping or causing damage when in a car.

The causes of Tourettes are still unknown, but they become significantly worse during periods of anxiety and can be lessened when a person is focused on their talents, such as photography, climbing or, in Capaldi’s case, music. However, Capaldi was unable to complete his set at Glastonbury, because his tics became unmanageable and he wasn’t able to control his voice. This must be soul crushing for Capaldi, who has used music as an outlet for many years. However, in a moment which must surely reinforce our faith in humanity, the Glastonbury crowd offered their support by singing the words for him and offering sustained support, as he ticced through the lyrics.

Paul Stevenson, star of many documentaries about Tourette Syndrome commented: “In that one moment thousands of folks watching Lewis, witnessed firsthand the challenges we face daily, not in a comedic way, no mocking just empathy and supporting him”

Личная жизнь

О личной жизни Льюиса Капальди информации нет. Певец предпочитает строго скрывать свою жизнь от сцены, он ничего не сказал о своих родителях, друзьях и возможных отношениях. В своем аккаунте в Твиттере он однажды ответил фанату, что у него нет детей и не будет детей в ближайшем будущем. Но никто из фанатов или репортеров не смог узнать больше подробностей.

Льюис Марк Капальди – истинный пример решимости. Он не отказывался от своей мечты даже перед лицом неудач, не обращал внимания на негативные отзывы о своей музыке. Некоторые критики активно комментировали его внешность, но артист никак не отреагировал на негативные отзывы. У него сотни поклонников, и он уверен, что это его место на сцене, что он нашел свое предназначение.

Introduction

Lewis Capaldi is a Scottish singer-songwriter and musician. He was nominated for the Critics’ Choice Award at the 2019 Brit Awards. In March 2019, his single “Someone You Loved” topped the UK Singles Chart where it remained for seven weeks, and in November 2019, it reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100; it was nominated at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards for Song of the Year and won the 2020 Brit Award for Song of the Year. Capaldi also won the 2020 Brit Award for Best New Artist.

On 17 May 2019, he released his debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, which remained at the top of the UK Albums Chart for six weeks. It later went on to become the best selling album of 2019 and 2020 in the UK, and “Someone You Loved” was the best selling single of 2019 in the UK. In May 2020, it was announced that Capaldi’s song “Someone You Loved” had become the longest-running top 10 UK single of all time by a British artist.

Favorite Quotes from Klay Thompson

“We came in with that mindset to put our foot on the throttle and not let go, we let go in Game 2 and we won’t do that the rest of the playoffs. I really believe that.” – Klay Thompson

“About seven seconds on the clock he just kept going backward, I don’t know why, but he just threw it up and I didn’t think it had any chance of going in, that was kind of like a dagger shot. It just gave us all the momentum back.” – Klay Thompson

“Obviously people have feelings and people’s feelings get hurt even if they’re called a bad word, I guess his feelings just got hurt. The Warriors ”ve all been called plenty of bad words on the basketball court before. Some guys just react to it differently.” – Klay Thompson

Lesson For Employers

Employers can help, just as the crowd at Glastonbury helped Capaldi, with a circle of care during the crashing lows and permission to take a recovery plan which allows for resetting our stress levels. We work in bursts. We need significant down time to recover from heat, travel intensity, changes in environment. A summer festival schedule is unlikely to be sustainable for a neurodivergent person without significant scaffolding. If you want us to show up with our magic, we need as much consistency and care around the aspects of work that many neurotypical people take for granted – travel plans, food, timing, administration.

The intensity of Tourettes comes and goes across a lifetime. It can get worse, better within a 24 hour period or across a period of months. Neurodiversity inclusion is a long term commitment, and doesn’t work well with standard billing cycles, performance appraisal. It can require us to develop flexible work patterns that might seem inconsistent, but are actually the difference that makes the difference. I hope that Lewis Capaldi feels supported and that his team are looking at all the travel arrangements, scheduling and sensory support that he needs in order to perform at his best, and upping the ante, including reassuring him that he is allowed to ask for this care. I hope he feels able to take the time he needs and comes back when he is good and ready.

For many years, musicians have been criticised for being Divas when they ask for the same bedding, flowers, food in whichever hotel they stay around the world, but actually this is just sensory neurocare 101. The critical lesson is to not judge what a neurodivergent person needs when they ask for help with what you might think unnecessary or fussy. If it makes a difference, it is worth it. You can’t have the highs if you don’t buffer the lows; that’s exploitation. Consider the rigors of your work routines and environments and review where you can make them less physically uncomfortable for all. These are the differences that makes all the difference for some of your headline performers.

Детство и юность

Вокалист родился в городе Глазго 7 октября 1996 года. В 4 года в месте с семьей он переехал в Батгейт. Достаточно быстро родители поняли, что биография сына будет связана с музыкой, поэтому не препятствовали его творческой деятельности. К 15 годам он уже имел опыт выступлений в караоке и барах. Репертуар музыканта состоял из популярных хитов.

Спустя время певец понял, что нуждается в авторских композициях, и заинтересовался профессиональным развитием. Льюис начал брать уроки вокала, учился писать тексты песен и планировал стать сольным артистом.

В арсенале парня были навыки игры на гитаре и ударных. Он также развивал навыки владения фортепиано. В 17 лет музыкант познакомился с Райаном Уолтером, который стал его менеджером. Встреча будущих партнеров состоялась благодаря опубликованной на SoundCloud записи Капальди.

When did Lewis Capaldi break up with Love Island star Paige Turley?

Lewis dated Paige — who appeared on BGT when she was just 14 — on and off from 2014 to 2016 after they met at college in Motherwell and became close.

After they finally split up, the devastated star channelled his heartbreak into album Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent and his hit song, Someone You Loved.

Speaking previously about the inspiration for the record, Lewis said: “I met a lady. She was very nice. I loved her. I loved the look of her and I loved how she spoke.

“We dated for a year and a half, then she left me. Then I wrote an album about it and I still think about it every day.”

Despite Lewis’s decision to remain tight-lipped about his former girlfriend’s identity, sources later named Paige as the ex who inspired him.

Speaking about their romance, Paige said: «We went out when we were younger, I was about 17 or 18.

«We were together for about a year. It ended really amicably and we’re still pals.»

Paige is now seeking love on television in the Love Island villa in South Africa.

“I just hate to feel that anyone’s anxiety is making them miss out on anything they want to do and LIVELIVE is my attempt at helping make these shows enjoyable for as many of those people who have been supporting this journey for me!”

Музыка

Льюис — обладатель нестандартной внешности для исполнителя лирических баллад

Его харизма и обаяние помогали привлекать внимание публики на любых площадках. Парень усердно занимался вокалом, и его труд окупился

В 2017-м Капальди выпустил первый миньон Bloom. Продюсером альбома стал Malay. В момент нахождения диска в предзаказе он уже занимал 2-е место в чарте iTunes. В том же году певец опубликовал на Spotify дебютный сингл Bruises.

Песня принесла артисту узнаваемость и в короткие сроки собрала более 28 млн прослушиваний на ресурсе, что стало успешным показателем. Льюис еще не был обременен контрактом с лейблом или продюсером, поэтому его достижение оказалось удивительным. Первый тур дебютанта под названием Rag’n’Bone Man состоялся в 2017-м.

В 2018-м дискографию исполнителя пополнил альбом Breach. Сингл Someone You Loved лидировал в музыкальных чартах Шотландии и Великобритании, а также вошел в главные рейтинги Швеции, Норвегии и Бельгии. На эту песню артист снял клип, героем которого стал его дальний родственник — актер Питер Капальди, известный по сериалу «Доктор Кто».

Подписав контракт с Capitol Records, вокалист становился все популярнее. ВВС включила артиста в список самых перспективных музыкантов в 2018-м. В этот рейтинг в свое время попали Адель, Сэм Смит, Элли Голдинг и другие. В том же году Льюис отправился в турне в компании Смита, а Найл Хоран пригласил его выступить на концертах в Глазго в рамках мирового турне. Капальди дал сольные концерты в Великобритании и других европейских странах, собрав тысячные залы.

2018-й принес Льюису большую популярность и успех. Он открывал концерт ирландской группы Kodaline и стал звездой фестивалей Firefly, Mountain Jam, Rize и других. Он также выпустил расширенную версию дебютного альбома, куда вошли синглы Tough и Grace. Музыканта стали часто приглашать участвовать в радиопередачах.

Автор романтических композиций в своих сочинениях эмоционально повествует о несостоявшейся любви в стиле инди-поп. В мелодике песен Капальди присутствуют и фольклорные мотивы. Фактурный голос с хрипотцой придает звучанию композиций особое очарование.
