RD: That’s me and Steve, yes.


     BiTS:  Fabulous song.

     RD: Thank you very much for that. That seems to be a favourite amongst people. It’s quite
     strange that there’s a lot of songs on albums that we think are really good songs, obviously
     because we wouldn’t be putting them on the album otherwise, but you can’t really release a
     slower song as a single. Which is unfortunate, really. Everyone says you can’t do that and part
                                                                  of me thinks, especially with this album, to
                                                                  hell with it [laughing]. If it’s a slow song, I’ll
                                                                  just release it because I just think it gets
                                                                  out to people more. Just puts it in their face
                                                                  a little bit more, and yes, the feedback we
                                                                  had from “More Sinner” was that
                                                                  ‘Screaming Your Name’, ‘With Me’, ‘Stand
                                                                  On Your Feet’ were really popular songs. So
                                                                  hopefully, I’ll kind of think oh, whatever
                                                                  and just release what we think [laughing].

                                                                  BiTS:  I’ve one more question for you.
                                                                  You’ve played places all around the
                                                                  country. Have you had a favourite gig? Has
                                                                  there been one that you’ve done that’s
                                                                  been absolutely outstanding for you and
                                                                  you’ve thought I could do that over and

                                                                  over again?

                                                                  RD: There’s been quite a few, really and for
                                                                  all kinds of different reasons as well. It is a
                                                                  tough one. I think probably the one that I
                                                                  would say is playing the Symphony Hall. I
                                                                  know it was supporting Magnum, but
                                                                  probably playing the Symphony Hall in
     Birmingham, and by then, all the amazing crowd were completely behind us and I think just
     playing a venue like that is always going to resonate, but then I absolutely love doing the
     stripped back gigs where I get to sort of chat a little bit more to the audience and just have a
     dialogue with people. It seems a little bit more intimate. So I really do like the intimate
     acoustic type shows as well. I just feel like the connection is really there when you do stuff like
     that.

     BiTS:  I won’t take any more of your time, Rebecca. Thank you very much indeed for speaking
     to me.

     RD: That’s great and thank you for interviewing me. I really appreciate it.

     BiTS:  It’s my pleasure. Have a good day.

     RD: And you. Bye.


     BiTS:  Bye.
