Mr. Brightside
What is your favourite song of 7?
The End Where I Begin. I get goosebumps every time I hear it.
What kind of impact has 1 left on your life?
The Killers helped get me through a lot of high school, and their lyrics really helped me through some rough patches. No matter how bad I’m feeling, I can turn to music, and The Killers is one of only a few bands/artists that can majorly effect me.

“Take these broken wings and learn to fly/All your life you were only waiting for this moment to arise”

Zero, even though I would pay a ridiculous amount of money to see them live!
What is your favourite song by 6?
“Five to One”
Is there a song by 3 that makes you sad?
Basically all of The Frames’ songs pull at your heart strings a bit. Some songs I connect to personally, but all of their songs are so rich in emotion that it’s hard not to feel the strength and power of them.
What is your favourite song by 2?
This is really tough. I think it might be “Make You Feel My Love”.
When did you first get into 5?
I first got into The Beatles in high school, maybe my sophomore or junior years. I didn’t really like them until my mom and I started listening to an oldies rock station on the radio on our way to school and work. They played The Beatles every morning, so I guess that’s when I realized they were amazing!How did you get into 3?
This is how it went: I watched the Oscars and saw Marketa and Glenn perform “Falling Slowly”. Pretty soon after that, I watched ‘Once’ and fell in love with both of them and their music. After seeing the film, I discovered their band called The Swell Season, and then I discovered The Frames. So basically, it’s all tied to Glenn Hansard.
What is your favourite song by 4?
“Say It to Me Now”…or at least I think so…
What is a good memory concerning 2?
I sang “Daydreamer” in my audition for The Voice. It was the best I’d ever sung!
Is there a song by 2 that makes you sad?
“Someone Like You” and “Make You Feel My Love”
What is your favourite song of 1?
“This River Is Wild”
