*** Hier geht es zur deutschen Version des Fragebogens ***

First cd: Metallica – Ride The Lightning

First concert: At the local library with an old Danish songwriter who writes really good children’s songs.

First childhood memory related to music: When I was four years old I stood up in front of my entire family of 80 people and sang a song from a famous Danish children’s movie. Totally acapella but my dad was with me on stage. I love that memory.

Favourite song at the moment: „St. Augustine“ by Band of Horses

A rather embarrassing song you like: A (rather stupid) danish dancehall song on the radio.

Favourite song among your own: „Cooking Up Something“

Favourite songlyrics: Of my own? „Foreword“ Other artist: „Do You Realize“ from The Flaming Lips.

Best concert: Radiohead (Roskilde Festival 2008) or Still Life Still (in Toronto in 2010)

Worst concert: Red Hot Chili Peppers (Roskilde Festival 2008)

Best concert among your own: Smukfest 2014

Vinyl, cd or mp3? I use all three. Don’t prefer anything in particular.

Download or stream? Stream

Three songs that really have to be on your mixtape:

„Let Down“ – Radiohead

„Wouldn’t It Be Nice“ – Beach Boys
