    That's a nice moment for Ian I'm sure. His dad was calling from from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada(where I live) where Ian spent his mid teens and where his dad continued to live. Especially touching since his dad would die a few years later from cancer. His dad is buried here so Ian does still have a permanent connection to Hamilton and as he has stated in many an interview, Hamilton and visiting Six Nations Reserve and the native friends he made here had a huge impact on him as a person and artist.

      Add to that that Ian's mother died of cancer while he was a teenager in Ontario ... it surely left a huge mark on him .... I read some interviews of him talking about that... perhaps it explains some of his more complex lyrics and ideas

      @msmoniz 9 років тому +7

      FLICKOFF1000 No, British. He was born in England and grew up there until his parents moved the family(minus an older brother) to Canada(Hamilton, ON). After his teens, he moved back to England and ended up forming The Cult there. I odn't think he ever ended up taking Canadian citizenship.

I remember there was a show on our local independent station (which became Fox) and during summer vacation on 1983 they had a national show called "Hot." It came on M-Th at 11 PM or so and it was the top 5 or 10 songs in the country that day. I distinctly remember was the first time I saw this awesome video of this female singer I absolutely wanted to look like and dress like! The video was "Borderline" and she was about to become an international superstar. After that my parents would have been asleep and I would sneak down at 11.30 every so often to watch Letterman. Nowadays I can barely stay awake when Kimmel or Colbert come on at 10.30 😂

It's so weird. Wish I had seen the Cult live back in the day.
