Don't you ever stop being dandy, showing me you're handsome

Adam Ant (Stuart Goddard) has finally written his autobiography. It's currently on sale in the UK. Bloody hells bells, do I NEED this book. You see, wee little Emily fell head over heels for Adam at the tender age of 12 and hasn't stopped adoring him since. That would be 25 years folks (fuck I'm old).
Much like marijuana is said to be a portal drug that opens the door to a greater world of drugs, Adam Ant was my portal musician into a greater world of music. It was through him that I developed an affinity for the music in the early '80's that would I still listen to today, bands like Soft Cell, Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees and countless others too many to name. It was his healthy views on sexuality that influenced my own, and because of him I was determined that my first true love would simply *have* to wear eyeliner (helllooo minervasteel).
Long story short, he played a role during my formative and easily influenced adolescent years, and I'm willing to risk ridicule to tell y'all so.
