Kaiser Chiefs To Write For Adam Ant?

added 06 October 2008 at 17.12

Prince Charming collars Ricky Wilson and Nick Hodgson at the Q Awards to suggest a possible collaboration.

Ricky Wilson has told Xfm that a meeting between the Kasier Chiefs and Adam Ant at the Q Awards could yield a possible songwriting opportunity. Ricky Wilson, clearly star-struck by the encounter, told our intrepid Xfm newshound, Sunta Templeton:

“I just met Adam Ant. We told him we liked his stuff because there’s touches of it on our new record. He said, ‘Oh, you should write me a song’. Nick said ‘That would be a good idea’, and he said ‘I’ll sing it in a minute’. As soon as he said it, I just thought that was a fantastic name for a song”.

Ricky, however, was doubtful that this temporary awards ceremony love-in would blossom into something definite.

“Will it happen? I doubt it, but it’s nice to fantasise of an evening”.
