I hope he adopts a Barbadian accent, and cultural affectations. Will be amusing.

I thought "Bajan" was widely regarded as an insult/derogatory name amongst Barbadians? - Much like redneck, chinky and the like?

So many particulars. So many questions.
news to me, I thought it was the proper nomenclature for a person from barbados!

It's an alternative term and not derogatory. Both are correct AFAIK. Bajan is the usual term for the language though.

Maybe I've just met posh/over-aspirational Bajans then but the impression I've taken was that they were really not happy with it.

I initially thought it was something to do with the Barbican in London.
I remember him from a "Festival of Light" (Mary Whitehouse and assorted god botherers in favour of sexual oppression) event in the 70s. I was, of course, with the oppositon. The opposition were a mixed bunch of hippies, gay libbers and anarchists. The elephant we'd been promised didn't turn up. We'd had fun leaping over the railings then Seig Heiling them as the FOL marched past Hyde Park - not in the best of taste but whatever. We followed them to their assembly point.The FOL followers were clearly disturbed by our prescence - we weren't hostile but some of us were making lewd suggestions, offering them joints and flaunting (how dare they!) our sexualities. I think they were well rattled as after a short bit of religious droning they brought Cliff - their star attraction - on.
Cliff chose to rally the troops with the old spiritual "He's got the whole world in His hands." We chose to join in by shouting "In his pants" at the appropriate points. Cliff stopped singing to explain that some of us were getting the words wrong and that we should be singing "in his hands". He must have been a glutton for punishment as he started the same song again.
I don't know what happened to the elephant.

Just noticed that the article linked in the OP is over a year old, and even that article is out of date as he completed his move to Barbados four years ago.
That this thread has taken that long to appear here probably shows how much people care.

Hardly getting over it.
TBF, Barbadian accents all sound "west country", so he'd just sound like a carrot-muncher.
oh yes - you are correct PM ..http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2009/jul/04/cliff-richard-sings-at-wimbledon
