Dance seems fairly integral to pop acts now. Do you think you were building the foundations of that?
Lulu: No. It's a cycle thing. I look at Top of the Pops now and think what a load of rubbish. I can hear my father saying exactly the same thing when I was young. The dancers at the moment are good but they are window dressing whereas I think we were there as dancers in our own right rather than something to fill the screen. I also think that bands these days aren't very visually entertaining. I think the whole dance thing has come back in terms of people going to clubs and raves.
