It was...
They just came over around the time of Crazy Horses and they were just on the news.
And now there wasn't much pop music.
I mean, there was no... Things just didn't... We didn't listen to Radio 1 at that point.
And so you just didn't hear.
But on the news, it's like the Osmonds have arrived.
And I just saw...
Donny Osmond, and he had a piano with light bulbs on it that lit up when he played it.
And he had a leather jacket with his name written in studs on the back.
And I just thought, how cool is that?
And he was playing crazy arses.
And it was just one of those moments in time when I was hooked.
Like 10-year-old me just went, no, 8-year-old me just went...
Oh, I want to do that.
And it stuck in me ever since.
And so I wanted, yeah, I wanted to be first of all a pop star, but then tempered it down to just being a musician.
Then punk came along and then it was like.
