Toyah was interviewed on ‘The Bridge 102.5’ on Saturday morning on The Nick Alatti Show.
Nick asked Toyah about Lady Gaga and that some have said she was the forerunner to her. Toyah said: “If you look at something in a compartment, nothing is new. Lady Gaga is completely different to what I’m doing, but I was doing it 30 years ago. I suppose I’ve always used image to go hand in hand with my music. It’s important to me. The music compliments the imagery as well. It’s something I’ve always been interested in. I don’t go onstage in a little black dress or a demure little cocktail dress, I’ve always gone onstage and made a statement”.
Toyah also said that ‘The Changeling Resurrection’ tour was structured with “four day breaks” to enable her to be able to sing the songs with her voice in peak condition.
• Not sure if Lady Gaga has been influenced by Toyah’s visuals, I’d say the creative team working with Katy Perry have plundered Toyah’s visuals far more. Has to be said, though, that the intro vocals to Gaga’s Government Hooker do sound more Toyah than Toyah.
Toyah will be talking to Nick Alatti on Midlands radio 102.5 The Bridge tomorrow morning at 10am ahead of tomorrow night’s Robin 2 Wolverhampton gig.
Nick’s here with a blend of music, news and chat to make sure your day goes quickly and the weekend comes sooner!

Toyah has previously guested on Keith’s show in November 2010 and July 2005 so this could possibly be a repeat of one of those interviews.
Last August Toyah was interviewed about her meteorite collection for BBC Radio 4’s Saturday Live in their ‘Secret Life’ series. This was repeated on BBC Radio 4 Extra’s The 4 O’Clock Show last October.
That edition of The 4 O’Clock Show is currently available to listen to again, here. Be quick as it will only be online for one more day. The seven minute clip also includes brief bursts of The Humans’ ‘This Belongs To You’ and Toyah’s ‘It’s A Mystery’.
DJ Phil Marriott announced today that he will be interviewing Toyah later this week.
There’s no confirmation as yet where or when the interview will air but it will possibly be on Phil’s ‘Gaydar Radio’ show.
The show airs from 6-10pm each weeknight on the station and can be listened to, at their website, here.
