I know one off the top of my head (i.e. no internet help). He sang Softly as I Leave You.
He died very young, in his early 50's IIRC.

And I seem to recall he was called the English answer to Sinatra.
The lyrics to "My Kind of Girl" keep running through my head:
She looks like an angel looks,
She even cooks like an angel cooks;
And my mind's in a kind of whirl --
To my mind she's my kind of girl
And my heart's kinda filled with joy,
Because she told me I'm her kind of boy!
(-- Leslie Bricusse, 1961)
