I just realized yesterday that the correct spelling is "wonderful". Is it a common mistake also made by english speakers ? |

Not really. Other words like bountiful, sinful, and fulfilling are the same way. |

But least you know now.
And you're English is better than my French. When english is your first language it takes motivation to learn another. I'm so lazy. Unilingual me. And I bet thats not even a word. I can't even speak English. Or spelll. |

Yeah he had a "long-term" relationship with her. I found this;
"After a five year absence, Adam returned in 1995 with this lo-fi Adult alternative classic. Written for his ex girlfriend Heather (Heather Graham), it has some beautifully written tracks on it. The title track alone is heart-wrenching. Beautifully produced, gorgeously performed and certain to please. "
I prefer to remember him in that video than how he looks now, sigh.

I fell in love with Adam Ant when I saw him on a Motown special and he did a Diana Ross song, Where did our Love go.
