Jordan on Sid Vicious

β€œEverybody wanted to be with Sid, but unfortunately he came with Nancy. She was unbelievably thick-skinned, one of the most unlikable people I've met. Everybody could see through her, except Sid.”

Chrissie Hynde on Sid Vicious

β€œAs soon as (Sid) realised how much everyone hated Nancy, man, he stuck to her like a stamp to a letter. ThatΒ΄s why he was called "Sid": he hated the name Sid, so everyone called him Sid. ThatΒ΄s what that whole scene was about. But when we got fucked up, he got very violent actually. He was shooting speed before he met Nancy, and when she got him into dope it was a very easy switch to make; then it was all over for him. He`d never been with a woman before, where she had that kind of control over him... Nancy was an opportunist. I'm not even going to say whether I liked her or not, but she had a negative effect on Sid and he didn't need that.”
