The 'Maybe It's the Power of Love' hitmaker has confessed he is a "helpless romantic" and would love to find The One.

He said: "I am a deep, helpless romantic. I don't think there is any better feeling than being in love. I believe in The Ultimate. Then I get disappointed. But am I being ­unreasonable in what The Ultimate is? My longest love affair, on and off, was almost 18 years with Nicolette [Sheridan]. It was powerful. She's gorgeous and funny but it ran its course. It was a constant attraction."

And the 66-year-old singer - who was married to Maureen McGuire between 1975 and 1990 - has been dating a little and whilst he insists he is "good" at being single, he wouldn't rule out a romance with the right person.

He added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I had friends tell me after my autobiography, 'You've made it intimidating for other women if they read it. Once they read how you described this other woman in your life.' I didn't mean to write it that way. My dream woman would have to be honest, and humour is a really ­important quality. I have been set up on blind dates. Some were nice. I don't think I had any miserable blind dates. You're having dinner, you are basically continuing your ­interviewing process. I am good at being single, but there is room for a partner."
