Petula Clark on Elvis, John Lennon and how Downtown became an anthem
Unlike many of today's "celebrities" struggling to match Andy Warhol's "15 minutes of world-fame" prediction, Petula Clark says: "I've always been famous, as far back as I can remember."
Now 84, and on another world tour with a new album (From Now On) adding to her phenomenal 70 million record sales, Clark has advice for B-Grade wannabes who fill our TV screens.

"An independent, absolute individual...a type of man (person) who chooses freedom and solitude over intimacy and personal bonds."
