That was one of the very first albums I bought too. When I bought that album, that was when I wanted to be a rockstar; seeing Debbie Harry singing ‘Heart of Glass’ on Top of The Pops, I thought; ‘that’s what I want to be.’

She was really blonde and really rock & roll. I remember looking at her and thinking; ‘yeah, I want to be like that.’ I wanted to look like that, be like that.
