D**k Clark interviews Bill Medley on American Bandstand. D**k asks why Medley took lessons four years ago. Medley explains that its because he'd lost his voice five years prior. D**k mentions that when Medley started singing he sounded black. Medley says with time his music evolved and became more his own voice as opposed to imitating the style of his childhood favorite musicians.
