The solo artist sings along privately to Oasis and to Bruce Springsteen in public. But what song is her classic Dreams based on?
The first song I remember hearing
Top of the World by the Carpenters on the radio when I was three or four, standing in the school playground on top of a bench, thinking: “Now I’m top of the world!” Although I didn’t realise it was by the Carpenters at the time.
The first single I bought
I loved Olivia Newton-John, but I loved John Travolta even more. I saved up my pocket money and went to Woolworths – with all the pick’n’mixes – with my mum to buy You’re the One That I Want on seven-inch when I was nine or 10.
