Holly Johnson is an artist, writer and musician (born William Johnson on February 9, 1960 in Liverpool, England; name on passport William Holly Johnson). Some sources erroneously suggest he was born in Khartoum, a myth Johnson himself apparently started during an interview.
He’s been performing and releasing records since 1977 when he was a member of Big In Japan alongside the likes of Bill Drummond, Ian Broudie and Budgie – all of whom went on to great musical success.
Almost 30 years later the singer is the last Frankie standing (he wisely spurned an ill-conceived reunion fiasco a decade ago) but over four mostly lacklustre albums he’s squandered the vast reservoirs of Frankie goodwill.
Their singles Two Tribes and the innuendo-laden BBC-banned Relax were at No 1 and 2 while the Frankie Says … T-shirt became the year’s must-have fashion accessory.
