60's Pop singer Adam Faith died last night (aged 62) of a heart attack following a performance . Terence Nelhams had his first hit in 1959 with "What do you Want?, he later starred in the TV series Budgie and was a successful buisness consultant. He had a heart bypass operation some years ago and was under constant medical supervision. RIP another memory of the past.

I was quite a fan way back then, poor Adam.

I was sad to hear the news this morning. I don't remember his music career - but I used to enjoy him on TV in 'Love Hurts'. He wasn't young anymore - but still gorgeous! RIP

Ohh no, He was my first teenage crush.
He first appeared on a music show called Drumbeat.
RIP Adam.

I am sorry to hear it, seems like we've lost a lot of great musicians lately...the sixties do seem a barrier to pass health wise though for everyone.
It is odd how some don't abuse their health and don't survive and the ones who do...are still around.

I was another avid fan. This is sad news indeed. (An early interview) (scroll down a bit)

I will always remember him in the film "Stardust" with David Essex, any over 40s Brits remember that one, he also had a very distinctive voice, i always feel sad when a celeb. dies it's like they have been part of my life, even though i don't know them.

I'm really sorry Adam Faith has died. His music and acting been part of my life since early teenage. As well as being sad for his friends an family I have to admit to feeling quite sad for a more selfish reason. This is that, when anyone famous of my era dies, a little bit of my youth goes with them. Why can't the world stay still for a while?
