The musician's Candid Playlist: Unpacking His Soundtrack of Life

My initial musical crush
On a crisp seasonal day, I was home sick as a six-year-old. My mom asked, "Is it true you don't know the Beatles?" She started Help! the motion picture, and then I listened to it on loop using her device for hours.

My karaoke go-to
David Bowie songs are enjoyable, such as Fame or Queen Bitch. Nobody replicates Bowie, though I enjoy the atmosphere. Recently I performed Save Me by Aimee Mann, that made people lose interest, yet I enjoyed myself.

My initial album purchase
Kids my age liked Paradise by Coldplay, so I bought Mylo Xyloto at the bookstore. It occurred during my debut California journey. I wanted to get some music. I acquired those two albums simultaneously.

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

The best song to play at a party
Best of My Love by the Emotions because it sounds happy. Its tempo is flawless. It's easy listening, trendy but intricate, therefore fitting for various tastes.

The music I skip these days
During my rock introduction, I adored Guns N' Roses. The first time I heard that famous track, I got hooked, though presently I skip it.

The ideal track to perform
Right now, my band and I perform Another Girl, Another Planet. I love that song.

The song that changed my life
I'm featured in the visual for Guilt Trip by Pup. I played the younger version of the frontman. This marked my video debut. It introduced intense audio, driving me toward alternative culture.

The song that makes me cry
That Alvvays number.

The song I'd like played at my funeral
There's a running gag concerning this idea. I might not actually select it, yet Grizzly Bear's Half Gate.
