Even today, he thinks of his mother when Tina Turner's hit "The Best" is heard, says the Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, in an Apple audio report that is due to be broadcast on Monday. Diana often sang the song loudly while driving when she drove him and brother Prince Harry to school. "Sitting in the backseat and singing felt like a real family moment," said William. "My mother was behind the wheel, singing loudly, and sometimes we even got the cop in the car to sing along." When he hears the song today, he thinks back to those drives and his mother. Diana was killed in a car accident in Paris in 1997.
William reported that his children inherited the joy of music.
Daughter Charlotte (6) currently loves Shakira's »Waka Waka«.
In addition, she often dances around the house in pretty clothes with her younger brother Louis (3).
In the mornings, however, there is often a dispute between Charlotte and her eldest son George (8) over who can choose the music.
In the meantime, the two should take turns determining.
His own wake-up hit was "Thunderstruck" by the Australian hard rock band AC / DC, said William.
Especially on Monday mornings, there is nothing better.
"It wakes you up, puts you in the best possible mood for the week and makes you feel like you can take on anything and everything."
William tells this in an episode of the Apple podcast "Time to go," from which the PA news agency quoted in advance on Sunday.
