All Apologies: Lulu James
North-Eastern soul singer with a twist Lulu James takes the Best Fit Q&A and confesses that blood isn’t always thicker than water, tells us of her matching underwear nightmares and reveals who she’d most like to apologise to.
Who would play you in the movie of your life?
Me – I do it best.
What would your superpower be and why?
If I had a superpower I would want to be God … to make the world a more loving natural place.
What’s your idea of heaven?
A world where everyone can be free to do as they like and feed off nature and energy!
What one thing have you learnt from your parents?
Never have kids! LOL. My parents … pffft … errrmm … blood isn’t always thicker than water.
What song do you wish you’d written?
Alt-J, ’Interlude 1‘. I feel like I have heard it in a past life or in my dreams
If you could say something to your 15 year old self, what would it be?
Be safe – forget about your troubled ways, which is exactly what I wrote the song about so good question!
What’s your re-occurring nightmare?
I can never find matching underwear easily in my draw – that’s my nightmare!

James Blake – Retrograde
