I'm in love with Holly Johnson. What an incredible musician and artist, incredibly creative, and incredibly sexy.

That LWB coupled with mid-engine, light-weight (barely 1/2 of a Mk1 TT) and relatively big rubber mean ridiculously confident handling. Gearbox is easily handled if you're a mechanically minded driver, at which point it becomes part of the character. Top tip people: take the ten minutes it needs to de-power the steering rack. There's a KZbin vid on it. It's quick and free and suddenly you have finger-tip steering that squirms and writhes like a proper sports car, loads up at higher speeds and is an absolute delight. Transforms the car!

So you guys looked down on Holly and you brought him into the band because you wanted to get your hands on his songs, lyrics and hold Holly to a contract and with the help of Trevor Horn you did. Maybe you met him yesterday after the game or someone who producing more fake pictures, evidences for you guys? What kind of ones that make it look like he had a hard on or like he is groping you? Who believes this other than maybe the ref who was paid off because even the suggestion that Holly, who was physically the weakest could have done anything to you other than lust is ridiculous. He wasn't even comfortable around you and Paul, which I don't blame him, the disrespect with which you surrounded him was awful. But Mark was toying with him, just so he'd start lusting after him? Was this part of your plan? So you want to destroy him this year, make him pay for the Liverpool album when your feminazi friends sabotaged him and make him pay for the band's lost income? You and the freeloaders still haven't stolen enough from him, haven't oppressed, humiliated him yet, like with that outfit at Eurovision or with that picture in the toilet. You make me seriously sick. Next year you want to perform at Glastonbury, but first you want to make him a slave to Trevor Horn again and live off his talent? Who's going to be your singer, Pete Wylie or Rayen Molloy? I know you control his social media and speak for him, you don't play his part well! #JusticeForHollyJohnson #AvengeHollyJohnson

Holly has a unique voice, but Frankie were built on marketing and hype, which is not enough to sustain a long term career. They weren’t great songwriters, but they did get a great producer and marketer. I remember thinking when they had their big hits they won’t last on hype and one clever disco sound. Duran, George Michael, Crowded House, could consistently write great songs.

BILLY WAS AN EXPLOSIVE FRONTMAN IN THE FGTH DAYS, HIS VOICE IS SO EMOTIONAL, OPERATIC AND HE USES VIBRATO TO GREAT EFFECT. I COULD LISTEN TO HOLLY TALKING OR SINGING THE DICTIONARY AND I WOULD BE MESMERISED.

Here I am bingeing on Holly interviews and performances ever since watching the recent reunion (which we all thought might never happen). He's had such a fascinating and storied life and I love listening to him talk of his experiences and background.

You know his name very well, otherwise you wouldn't have found this video and came here to bitching. No he's not a guy who ever told the FGTH "fans" FU. He's the guy who told FU to the stalking, anonymous, faceless, coward people who chased him and took so much away from him. He was Frankie Goes to Hollywood himself, all the qualities that made the band attractive to real people came from him.
