Colin Hay

There were these friends of mine at school that we... Did you come up with the name, Colin?

Deep Impression?

Maybe.

Maybe, but I can't remember if it was me or not.

Who specifically came up with the name?

I know that we left no impression at all.

But we started to play.

Oh, it didn't last very long.

But I remember we played a church social...

The singer didn't make it.

I think he'd got into trouble or something with the police.

I can't remember exactly what happened, but I had to sing, so I sang.

Well, I could sing, but I'd never really kind of gone out the front and gone, OK, I'm going to be the singer, a singer-guitarist, you know.

So I remember I'd learned Prode Mary, so we played Prode Mary, and then...

All these, well, I'll say all these, there were like three or four girls that came down the front of the stage and they watched me sing Proud Mary and they really liked it, you know, and they were looking at me.

I mean, that was it.

This is not an uncommon story.

I know it's not an uncommon story.

And they didn't even really have to talk to me.

They were just looking at me, which was just, that was enough.
