[JonFinnerud]

@codern 2006 ! :)

[lemoncrushed]

And he deserves every penny, top man and one of the very best songwriters of the era.

[pdonneky]

nik was and still is one of my heroes from the 80's, Nik your tape is still in my car casset deck holder, good on ya mate, Paul

[dumpgrump]

stupid. we all look better when we were younger!! dumb asses!

[Tuhisma]

for sure we all look better when we are younger

such is life

[doubts]

He is a talented musician.

[HenryKpresents]

awesome interview..., and Nik doesnt beat around the bush. :o)

[JakobusVdL]

From his music and his videos in the 1980's it always seemed he had a self mocking sense of humour - it seems he still does, Neat

[Ifruitbat]

what a perfect comment... My sentiments exactly.

[democratrsannonymous]

Rick Astley and Nik Kershaw , my top two male artists from the 80s. Both very honest during interviews, nice people, left careers for families, handsome blokes and most importantly brilliant musicians!

[lancethrustworthy]

Wow. What a wild time he's had...and survived, still sane even! 'Wouldn't It Be Good' is a classic methinks.

[11Rebell11]

I remembered, I was sooo afraid of him when I was in the age of... mybe 4 or 5. xD

I don't know why, he is a sympathic man. No he is my hero. =)

[11Rebell11]

As a man I loooove him!!! =D

No, really, he is cool. I like his character. =)

[alternativestores]

we all looked better when we were young, except the vegans of course

[EmerGent95]

Did he make a remake of The Riddle music video, because the one they briefly played here wasn't the one he did in 1984 that I'm used to?

[DONSUKADON]

Yeah,that's the first Nik interview I've seen!

I'd like to see his acoustic tour.

I'm waiting to see him long time in Japan.

Thank u for posting!!!

And I jealous Norwegian^ ^/

[godsteen26]

He still has the same smile!!! What an amazing guy!

[cocolossal69]

What a gorgeous guy! I like him even better now. That's the first Nik Kershaw interview I've seen. :) "Human Racing" is one of my most treasured albums.

[theREALonekev]

His "15 Minutes" CD is my favorite but all that I've heard by him is excellent.

[JhainaMcC]

nik kershaw was the first person I ever seen in concert ,my father took me there in 1987 I got his autograph in downtown ottawa, ont and he rocked in the 80's pretty wild back then I think the band that opened up for him that nite was dead or alive ?Was that true?

[AndrewSmith1979]

What year is this interview from?

[tall32guy]

@AndrewSmith1979 At least 2000.

[callmebruce5]

Kershaw was one of the best.

[MidnightMadhatter]

LOL nice "and...err...go to the bank *plays Human Racing*"

[GORGEOUSDIAMONZ]

Nik kershaw should definatley absolutley intrigingly comeback to the 21st century and use his 80's themed instrumental songs and use that to make new ones!i be the first to head to the shops buying his album he is amazing compared to the crap music we got today.

[JadePoda]

what a great bloke :) you get the impression that he doesn't really buy into the whole fame/celebrity thing, good on him :D He's ace regardless x Jade

[dennyce26]

Nik is my dads favorite singer. Sadly he had not been in the Philippines.

[WaterOffaDucksBack]

GREAT songwriter............i was brought up in 80's and Nik Kershaw was one of my favourite artists........One world is my fav song of nik's .........and he is a major influence of one of my other favourite artist......Michael W Smith....

[tak178]

Makes sense now that you say that...Michael W Smith really sounds a lot like him!

[AcousticUplift]

I like his honesty in this interview.  It's refreshing.

[maisie115]

TOUR, TOUR, TOUR!!

[123oz999]

yeah come on nik ,we all want to see our 80s nik kershaw back

[adm924s]

He's on in Liverpool and Glasgow

[Kristianskogmo]

Haha norsk jo xD

[Andrewkeh]

Tour!!!!

[warren218]

Don't think he looks bad at all but I have seen more recent pic than the 80s

Did a great song a few years ago called Fiction (check out if you haven't already, one of my faves). Still putting out some quality material

[nonCompl]

[in reference to the above comment from Sheepydee.]

quote: "he looked better when he was young"

What kind of comment is that?

Who the hell didn't or won't have looked better when they were were younger.....IMHO

I myself look like I just ate a factory full of cakes, but alas, I was gorgeous when I was a younger.

[redfenderguy]

hahahaha well said mate awesome reply

[Paardekut]

Reason why I stopped buying his records is because he threw away his signature sound, which was heavily influenced by syhesizers.

He seems like a nice bloke though and I'm still a huge fan of his first four 80's albums.

[sheepydee]

he looked better when he was young

[nikdavidkershaw]

yeah he did

[sheepydee]

no offense to him but there is no way i would recognise him now pity the way people change

[hklinker]

@sheepydee

I see you've managed to make not one, but two negative comments about Nik Kershaw's appearance here. Somehow, I don't think it's about him......

[reloda]

@nikdavidkershaw I didn't

[BaboonLoveMonkey]

@nikdavidkershaw Who didn't? :-)

[tall32guy]

@sheepydee That's how it goes for all of us honey. LOL

[mctilt]

@sheepydee Give it a few years and then take a look in the mirror, you may not be so quick to make silly comments!.

[LaYinGdoWnTHeTRuTH99]

@sheepydee im sure you both did too lol ;-)

[JakobusVdL]

@sheepydee Most of us did - looks fade - cool's forever!

[TheKarenbmish]

@sheepydee Shoot! We all looked better when we were young!

[codern]

@sheepydee thats usually how it goes

[JorisKunkeler]

Nik Kershaw is a wonderful artist. Unfortunedly I was too joung back in the 80's to get to know him. He's a very good live artist aswell. And I hope to see him live one day. Is there anyone who can tell me if and when and where Nik will perform in the future? With love,

Madonna Rodrigues Pereira from Colombia/Holland.

[emgcarra]

Come on Nik...There are lots of people wanting to hear what is crossing your head now..musically speaking, of course...Thanks
