The actor's Candid Music Selection: Delving into The star's Musical Journey

My initial musical crush
During a fall day, I stayed home ill when I was six years old. My mother wondered, "Is it true you don't know the Beatles?" She started Help! the motion picture, and then I played it repeatedly using her device all day long.

The track I perform at sing-alongs
David Bowie songs are enjoyable, including Fame and Queen Bitch. It's impossible to imitate Bowie, though I enjoy the atmosphere. Recently I performed Save Me by the artist Aimee Mann, which bored everyone, though I loved it.

The first CD I bought
Kids my age liked Paradise by Coldplay, so I acquired Mylo Xyloto at the bookstore. It was during my first LA visit. I decided to buy albums. I acquired those two albums during that visit.

The song I inexplicably know every lyric to
My sibling had Incredibad by Lonely Island in physical format. He had it on regularly while traveling. As a youth listening to content deemed inappropriate felt exciting.

The perfect gathering tune
The Emotions' Best of My Love as it appears cheerful. The rhythm is ideal. It's pleasant to hear, stylish yet complex, so it suits everyone.

The track I avoid now
When I discovered rock'n'roll, I was into Guns N' Roses. When I first listened to that famous track, I became obsessed, though presently I skip it.

The best song to cover
At present, we musicians play the Only Ones classic. I enjoy that piece.

The transformative music
I appear in the music video for the Pup song. I acted as the youthful counterpart of the vocalist. It was my first music video. It awakened me to louder music, driving me toward alternative culture.

The emotional track
Alvvays' Belinda Says.

The song I'd like played at my funeral
My dad and I have an inside joke about this topic. I'm not sure if I want it, but Half Gate by Grizzly Bear.
