No not a transsexual but someone who has suffered with depression.
I was at boarding school in England when Ant Mania was at its height, though being a proto rockabilly rebel I had no time for music that though interesting lacked ideological purity.
I recently came across Adam Ant’s new album and particularly like the cut Cool Zombie. Hooked I went back and listened to the songs that were a soundtrack to my last years in the UK.
I also came across the documentary, “The Madness of Prince Charming”, despite the overly cute title it is a harrowing account of his depression, breakdowns and hospitalization.
The documentary struck a cord, like soldiers comparing notes on the same battle. I admire his fortitude to carry on.
And Oh Boy was he handsome back in the day!
