The first song I fell in love with
When I was a little boy, we had a caravan on the Isle of Sheppey, and I remember hearing My Sweet Lord by George Harrison one summer. It’s about searching for God, and I’ve always thought the way it moves from Hallelujah to Hare Krishna is really beautiful.The first single I bought
Big Time by Rick James from Paul’s Music on London’s Cambridge Heath Road. Even at a young age, I liked my funk. I’ve only been addicted to two things in life – funk and praise.The song I can no longer listen to
Les Misérables was really popular at drama school. I’d come from being an apprentice printer, and there were all these blokes with rollnecks, hair tied back, singing about Javert. I thought: I can’t stand it. Out of everything, Les Mis pisses me off the most.The best song to play at a party
Candy by Cameo because it’s a funky line dance. Even if you can’t dance, you can just follow the person next to you.The song I do at karaoke
