Tony Hadley, ‘massive Bill Nelson fan’
Despite a myriad of wide-ranging musical tastes spreading from The Chainsmokers ("I love what they’ve done for dance production, it’s something rather unique to me") through Be Bop Deluxe ("I’m a massive Bill Nelson fan, he’s an amazing guitarist and brilliant songwriter")

The music he is known for has never been my kind of thing but - I must say - when attending (as a teacher) one of the huge concerts for 'Young Voices' a few years back I was hugely impressed with how he really threw himself into performing for the adult audience and alongside the singing kids. I've had a (slightly grudging) respect for him ever since.
AND he was treated like shit by Gary Kemp simply for wanting to carry on singing the songs that he was best known for, so my sympathy there as well.
I'd have never expected the 'massive fan of Bill Nelson' bit but he's continuing to go up in my estimation.
