    "I saw a prawn dancing and there were no drugs involved at all" Loved his dry sense of humour.

      They forgot Jerry Dammers quick enough, when he wanted to give the proceeds from gigs to charitable causes.

    Next time. Have the background music lowered please. We all know the songs, that’s why we’re here. What I haven’t seen, is the interview!

    @mjustonestar So many! Terry, Blair & Anouchka, Vegas, Terry Hall & Mushtaq....and in between all those were others, except I don't know if he was actually a part of those bands, or a guest: Lightening Seeds, Dub Pistols. And that's without counting all his collaborations with other bands & solo artists: Damon Albarn, French band Nouvelle Vague, Sinéad O'Connor, Lilly Allen, Amy Winehouse (w Specials).....and I'm sure I forgot some.
    As you must know, he also did solo work as well.
    He's TOP!

    terri handsome - but - i wish i could know whats with him ... always looks sad and depressed - actually he is not i think - he cracks jokes ... often

    • @____Ai____

      well, he's bipolar, so he is actually depressed...but he's also very funny and just has the kind of face that always looks miserable, even when he isn't. But I agree, he's still very very handsome!

    • @julieeales

      He was diagnosed with manic depression in 2004. After trying to commit suicide ,Thank God he didn't and he's now having the proper meds 💝

    • @MsNooneinparticular

      He is bipolar & has been through a lot. Listen to "Well Fancy That" by Fun Boy Three. He was molested at 12 & had a nervous breakdown, started abusing Valium & dropped out of school at age 14. Attempted suicide in 2004. He reminds me of Kurt Cobain with the not smiling thing. (I can relate as I have depression & am always being told to 'smile!' by people). Of course many depressed people smile so it may just be his personality...or maybe it's anxiety/etc. He's an awesome artist!

      Not heard the 12 inch version of Too much too young for years....brilliant

    • @sunny70299
      @sunny70299 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      He had bipolar which was triggered by the trauma of being kidnapped and gang raped by a paedophile ring aged 12. You try smiling after going through that. It's enough that he survived that trauma for as long as he did we weren't entitled to see him smile on demand.
