    Hi Justin, absolutely love the videos, it’s amazing to watch someone who has been and currently still in the music business talk about it in such detail. Just wanted to ask a question not sure if you’ll talk about it in a future video but I just noticed that “I believe in a thing called love” is up a step in G on the music video but, in F# on the original recording. I only noticed while playing along to the music video and wonder if I was tuned a step down. Just wanted to know if there was any particular reason or if it was by accident. Love the vids .

    The fact that so many people in the comments find different songs familiar to this is really quite fascinating. Every artist has influences but some are so blatant! Not that anyone cares but I heard Snoop Dog and Dr Dre - The Next Episode too. I also often default to a Northern accent when I think I'm being hilarious. And I bloody loved Bugsy Malone and watched it repeatedly as a kid. I used to act it out with my sister but now I'm imagining John Shuttleworth singing "I won't take no for an answer
