I was very fortunate to be at the vanguard of music video.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was able to turn to classical music many people, who saw my programs live and on YouTube, and this is one of the nicest achievements I can have.
We were very fortunate to have been on the scene when we were.
I was lucky. I had a lot of really good influences.
The best videos were the ones where I became friends with the artists first.
Music videos were this lucky career opportunity. They were assignments. I was providing a service, and they were meant to be punchy and gimmicky and fun.
I was the star of the choir.
I'm a massive sucker for music documentaries.
I just always loved to perform and I was lucky enough to be in front of the right people at the right time!
I consider myself very lucky indeed to have had the career I have. I listen to the radio now and you can't tell artists apart.
We didn't have music videos. You weren't an overnight sensation. You had to work at it and learn your craft: how to take care of your voice, how to pace your concerts, all that trial and error.
