Speaking to AP News Carey said she didn’t see herself as being fairly compared to artists such as Presley or the Fabs. She said: “I really can never put myself in the category of people who have not only revolutionised music but also changed the world, that’s a completely different era and time.”

She also said that trying to set sales records was not a priority, saying: “I’ve gone through enough of my life worrying about that kind of thing”.
