They, well him really, were brilliant.

Never that keen when they became successful.

Though having Diana Dors in your video was pure class.

Glad you enjoyed the concert.
Adam Ant was one of the highest selling UK acts of the 80s I think he sold around 24 million records - but because of bad record contracts

't see as much of the money as he should have.

Also you shouldn't judge him about his mental illness - the guy had no one to turn to and unfortunately got sectioned by a doctor and forced to take medication - it was the pressure of fame that was the catalyst!
