The song that is my karaoke go-to
I’m really bad at singing, but I’ll have a go anyway. My one is Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now by Starship, or I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me) by Whitney Houston. I like big songs that feel quite upbeat, the songs that people love – me singing them, less so.

The song I inexplicably know every lyric to
Justified & Ancient by the KLF. We sang it when I was in a band 10 years ago. We were called Geoff Leopard and we were really bad. My friend Justine was in it and knows the middle rap really well. She was at some awards do and thought everyone would be really impressed if she launched into the rap. They let her finish and said: please never do that again.
