very very lovely stuff uh his full name is harrison james armstrong in case you were wondering and even though he was born in 1999 he's here to talk about his new single 1989 is hey yo hello darling so uh let's just get the elephant out of the room and let's talk about the pressing subject before we get into it yes you told me to shut up on your story i got scared though let's get out of the way do you do you want to apologize now i am sorry you know what i didn't think you'd take it like this but i came in the studios today everyone should give me the most evil look ever i was like oh no do you know what it is you hit a soft spot because i do talk a lot i do there's a lot of blue on our script which is my color in this story that you put up bianca was talking talking talking some more then you're like oh shut up and she was still talking and she was still doing it she triggered you just happened to be on the radio at that time it could have been anyone anyone could have got it this morning couldn't get the girl on the advert it's going to be anything it's all right no we love you how are you feeling today good you know i'm excited to be here saying this i said this off air when i first got it i really really enjoyed coming here honest to god from the bottom of my heart we love having you like genuinely yeah look at us we don't feel like oh we gotta go into them annoying girls we have got an interview so you released 1989 a brand new single and when you did you tweeted saying i'm going to quote you back to you uh always feel like i missed out on back in the day from the stories i hear it was way better back then why did you choose that specific year why did you choose that name for the record considering it's before you were born yeah so that all that stone roses type stuff that's just what my mum and dad grew up on so anytime i'm hearing my dad chat about a story from back in the day all that's in my head yeah everyone's got bucket hats i've actually got a bucket on today you look snazzy this was not planned i just don't have a trim so i slapped this on today uh but yeah i always like remember stories that he tells me honestly i wish i was there you know what i'm saying no one had the phones out and i don't know it just seemed better to me and i always get like fomo and that i can i can never even change because it's just past my head yeah just what it is so yeah so i just thought i'd put myself in that little bag and then made that song and then obviously that's my little that's my little getaway tonight at 89. it's called that because that's when the stone roses song came out i will tell the truth it was originally called fool's gold which is the name of the old song but we wasn't allowed to call it that so i have to switch it up a cheeky little sample uh in 1989 an orthodox retreat to an example oh yeah did you have to you have to ask them for that permission and stuff before no because it's not they sampled something else okay yeah yeah they did they did yeah they sampled the stone roses but you get me so i i went straight to them the star wars straight to the player yeah yeah that was there for manchester in it so it was all right hello yeah yeah oh that's right were they fine with it were they absolutely more than fine yeah yeah i need to speak to him one of them actually keeps trying to get hold of me and i keep trying to get hold of him but keep missing each other but yeah no it's all love that that's that was like the whole point of like making the album i was like yo i just need to be some manchester stuff on there you know what i'm saying so love how you rep i really do yeah the album um is called close to home and it comes out on august 19th just how close are we talking though like when you when you say close to home yeah are we gonna get like skeletons out of your closet that you've written about that how much are we gonna get to know the real h quite a lot you know i can't lie definitely definitely a lot more than people already know i think um i think from like a general like listener point of view if you're not like an actual fan who knows me inside and out and has heard every single minute of every song i think you just presume that i just rap about i don't know go into the club or girls or bum bums bum bums we all love bum bums but not all the time especially but we do like the songs when you rap about it yeah of course they're the best songs but sometimes you have to cater for other people as well and yeah i feel like people don't know me that well and so i definitely got a lot of things off my chest and explained a lot of things but also my reason of just writing about bum bums for the past however many years back to the bum bumps yeah back to the boom booms whatever i blew up when i was 18. i i didn't even do i don't i didn't really know anything other than bum bums really we're not mad at the bubbles like that of course of course you know it's nice to shake your bum bum to song about bum bum you know always always i never say whatever i got a little bit older went through a couple things and i'm obviously able to write about more things so that's what's on the album uh summer on the way uh album on the way and you've got a very very special show that you just announced uh uh ibiza rocks oh yeah pool parties well we can go there and come back in the night okay we'll be there we can come back in the night like it's gonna like let it go we can come back in the night it should come it's gonna be absolutely sick no it's gonna be good what are you what are your plans like what what do you can you expect from like a h pool party obviously a lot of alcohol why are we we'll be happy we'll be going down i've got some sick acts obviously i've not announced the axe yet but sick and yeah i don't even know what to expect to be honest i'm gonna get there obviously i'm performing at the end obviously of course but yeah we get there people go on we all have a laugh we all have a but how do you get ready for summer h talk us through the prep wow um i really don't know i think that's a that's a good question i don't know obviously the only thing that i can think of in my head now is that the trim has always got to be on point other than that it doesn't really matter i could i'll do gray sharks white t-shirts all summer really white air forces that might be a bit of a myth because i had to get but yeah so i don't really know obviously i'm quite busy this summer i got my australia tour then my uk tour then i was a beefer and all that album and all that so i don't even know what i'll be doing i'll just be all over the place to be honest just prep for being super busy to be fair a lot of my summer's gonna be in australia where it's winter there so i don't really know what's going on right now talking of um your tour later on this year have you got any special guest planned for that because obviously australia was like it's
