O’SULLIVAN BANNED HIS SONGS AT HOME
GILBERT O’SULLIVAN’s children only ever heard his songs while visiting friends because the veteran singer/songwriter banned his music from his own home.
The Get Down hitmaker admits he has never been able to enjoy his own work as he is such a perfectionist.
He tells Britain’s The One Show, "I can’t look at myself or listen… In the studio, I’ll spend 100 hours trying to get the vocal right and making sure the sound is right but once (my) records are made, I tend to not want to hear it.
"The children, when they were growing up, used to only hear my records in other people’s houses and (they would) say, ‘We heard you on the radio!’ They’d never hear me in their own house. If I came on the radio I would turn it off."
