Singer-songwriter Bryan Adams recently opened up on the beginning of his close friendship with Princess Diana.
The singer, 64, showered the late princess with praise and kind words “straight from the heart”, report People magazine.
He spoke in a new interview with The Sunday Times and recollected his friendship with the late princess. “We had a lot of really, really good conversations, I have to tell you. In fact it’s strange and surreal to think about,” he told the outlet. “I really, really liked Diana, she was an amazing woman and a super-great inspiration. Meeting her was truly one of the greatest things that ever happened to me.”
“I said, ‘I used your name on a song once,’ and Diana said, ‘Yes, I know, very funny. Actually I’d like to hear it again’,” he recalled. “So I sent a copy to Kensington Palace, got an invitation to tea back and that’s how we became friends.”
But later, the more friendly we got the more I learnt what was really going on.”
Adams said the lyrics to “Diana” were “laddish humour,” and noted that the original inspiration behind the song was from “that guy who (had) broken into the Queen’s bedroom and sat on her bed smoking.” However, he noted that he “retired (the song) after Diana died out of respect to her and her boys”.
