BRYAN ADAMS IS HERE, ARMED WITH SUMMER OF69, AND SUNDRY OTHER BALLADS

Sneha Bhura
Take Out The Sunscreen!

Back in the 1990s, Bryan Adams serenaded a generation hitting their teens with those first crucial songs on love, heartache and apology. For many, he was the gateway to other golden oldies like Elton John, Pearl Jam, Paul Simon and Pink Floyd. Today, he can still melt your cold, cold heart with his gravelly (Everything I Do) I Do It For You. The 58-year-old Canadian singer, also a photographer, philanthropist and staunch vegan, is making his fifth visit to India, and will be performing in five cities from October 9 to 14. Here to promote Ultimate, his 21-song compilation album, Adams talked to us about socially conscious music, his love for what he does, and why he will never tire of Summer of ‘69.

If there is one international rockstar most Indians know, it is Bryan Adams. How does that make you feel?

Truly humbled. Indians have a lot of love to give, and I am always grateful for all the appreciation. India never disappoints.

A golden girl

One of India's most formidable beauties passed away earlier this month. The odd thing is she would absolutely hate this obituary; she hated being written about and avoided publicity for all of her nine decades. Indira Aswani was 93 when she died. But anyone who encountered her, even briefly, was in such awe of her grace and poise, and one could not but remember her forever.

India is not a controlling big brother

Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay considers India a benevolent elder sibling as the \"big brotherly attitude\" is happily missing from bilateral ties. He thinks the relationship shared by the two countries has become a model of friendship not just for the region, but for the entire world. \"India's attitude is definitely not of a big brother who is controlling and does not allow the little brother to blossom and grow,\" says Tobgay in an exclusive interview with THE WEEK.
