00:16 I've been making music all my life.
00:18 And today we're here in the studio with Specsavers
00:21 to talk about issues to do with people having hearing loss.
00:24 Hearing loss feels like a scary subject,

00:31 mishear famous song lyrics all the time.
00:34 So that's why I'm teaming up with Specsavers
00:36 to make a misheard version of my hit,
00:39 Never Gonna Give You Up.
