The musician's Candid Song Choices: Unpacking His Soundtrack of Life

My initial musical crush
One autumn afternoon, I was home sick when I was six years old. My mother wondered, "Have you really not listened to the Beatles? She played Help! the movie, after which I listened to it on loop using her device for hours.

The track I perform at sing-alongs
Any Bowie number is really fun, like Fame or Queen Bitch. Nobody replicates Bowie, yet I adore the vibe. I recently tried Save Me by Aimee Mann, that made people lose interest, though I loved it.

The debut physical music I owned
Peers enjoyed Paradise by the band Coldplay, so I acquired Mylo Xyloto at the bookstore. It occurred during my debut California journey. I wanted to get some music. I purchased both Coldplay and Thriller simultaneously.

The song I inexplicably know every lyric to
My sibling had Incredibad by Lonely Island as a compact disc. He played it constantly in the car. As a youth listening to material considered off-limits proved thrilling.

The perfect gathering tune
This classic from The Emotions as it appears cheerful. Its tempo is flawless. It's pleasant to hear, trendy but intricate, therefore fitting for various tastes.

The track I avoid now
When I discovered rock'n'roll, I loved Guns N' Roses. The first time I heard Sweet Child O' Mine, I got hooked, yet currently I avoid it.

The perfect number to reinterpret
Right now, we musicians perform the Only Ones classic. I love that song.

The song that changed my life
I appear in the music video for the Pup song. I acted as the youthful counterpart of the frontman. This marked my video debut. It awakened me to louder music, driving me toward alternative culture.

The emotional track
Belinda Says by Alvvays.

The song I'd like played at my funeral
My dad and I have an inside joke concerning this idea. I'm uncertain about choosing it, yet Grizzly Bear's Half Gate.
