As a result, she developed a soulful style of singing like her idols. “My first CD that I owned was Aretha Franklin: Greatest Hits. And I saw the advert on TV and it was just like little clips of her songs. I had no idea who she was—I was only like 10 so. I said, ‘Oh yeah, that looks really good’, so I wrote it down and I said to my mum, ‘Can I have that for Christmas?’ So she told my friend Dennis, who always gets me good music anyway, and he got that for me. So that was one of my first albums that I loved.” She would later tell MTV News: “I kind of clicked into soul music more than anything else because of the vocals. You’ve got to have good vocals to sing soul music and I always liked it ever since I was little.”
