That's really sweet. Oh. No, it's not about you. It's about another model I know. Oh. Right, well, I'll give it a listen, but I'm, like, really, really busy at the moment. You know, so I'll try. Yeah, you should. It's a, it's a good song. We've got a great team. It's a really good opportunity. Cool. So this Saturday at 12:00, then? 12:00. Sounds good. - Thanks. - Cool. Bye.

- Wow. - Can I help you? Is this the house where the colored lad lives? Four doors down. What do you think? How many black people do you think that lives on this shitty estate? - Do you know Ngig? - What's that? Ngig. My son. We're putting a band together. Does he play any instruments? Why don't you ask him yourself? We are putting a band together. I am the manager. What the hell is wrong with him?

You have to imagine it's not as... Shit? This will be good. - Really? - Yeah. You just need some proper cameras and a good director. But as long as it's in your head, that's what counts. It's an exercise in imagination. Think big, Conor. This is just a means to an end. And she looks amazing. She's got to be in all the videos. - Yeah? - Oh, yeah. She's world-class. Without her, you're just a bunch of gay-looking kids down an alleyway. Have you kissed her yet? - No way. - Why not? She's a year older than me. And, anyway, she's got a boyfriend. - Ah. Who? - Evan Adams. He's, like, a full-grown man. He's got a car and all and stubble. What's he doing hanging out with a kid? She's not really like a kid. Hmm. - What's this? - Homework. You're good. Get better. How d'you know he's her boyfriend anyway? It seemed like it. Pulled off in his car, music blaring. He's pretty cool. What was he listening to? Genesis. He will not be a problem. - Really? - Trust me. No woman can truly love a man who listens to Phil Collins.

So where d'you live? Not far from the school. Harcourt Terrace. Ah, by the canal. Did you grow up there? Yeah. Though we're probably moving. My parents are broke. That's why they sent me to that school. Yeah, I was wondering about that. You're a bit posh for around there. Speak for yourself. Your house is massive. Is it? My parents are probably splitting up. That's sad. Are you doing okay with it? Oh, yeah. It's a bit intense being around them. Jesus, all that drama. I'm glad I don't have parents.

You've got really good cheekbones. - What? - Yeah. Yeah, you should let me do your makeup. - Really? - Yeah. Now this light's gonna be really harsh on camera. It'll take the edge off. I'm actually wearing some right now.

Yeah, you should probably learn the lyrics. So you can lip-sync to them properly. We're shooting at the lane at the back of Quinnsworth. - You know Quinnsworth? - Yeah. This Saturday at 12:00. Cool. Well, I'll try and make it. What would I wear? I don't know. It's kind of like a Chinese theme. So, like, a kimono? Well, it's more like a riff than a song.

# It's 2:00 on the edge of the morning # # She's running magical circles around my head # # I hitch a ride on a dream she's driving # # She turns to kiss me, I crash back into bed # # Across the street on a grayed out Monday # # I see the girl with the eyes I can't describe # # And suddenly it's a perfect Sunday # # And everything is more real than life # # I think I'm back in the dream # # I think I'm back on the ceiling # # It's such a beautiful feeling # # Going up # # She lights me up # # She breaks me up # # She lifts me up # # You find a mystery bound in perfection # # You've got to read, but you don't wanna reach the end # # 'Cause what if everything beautiful's fiction # # And this reality's just pretend? # # And then I'm back in the dream # # Looking up at the ceiling # # It's such a beautiful feeling # # Going up # # She lights me up # # She breaks me up # # She lifts me up # # Up to the stars she shows me # # Dame Street, George's Street # # Miles below me # # Up where the world won't let us down # # Na, na, na, na # # Going up # # She lights me up # # She breaks me up # # She lifts me up. # Boys, look at David Bowie.

I'm more of a singer. I write songs, words, lyrics. But I haven't put them to music yet. What kind of music are yous gonna be doing? Well, I-I don't know yet. What d'you mean you don't know? You have to know what you're gonna be playing. What are you into? I'm a futurist. What does that mean? Like, uh, no nostalgia. Not like your da's band. Not looking backwards, just forwards. Oh, cool. Like Depeche Mode? - Okay. - Or Joy Division? Right. Or Duran Duran? What do you think of them?

Jury is out on which way those guys'll go. They're a lot of fun, and James Taylor is one of the most proficient bass players in the UK at the moment, giving them a funky edge.
