there’s loads more but this list is already longer than i thought so i’ll leave it at that lol

 

[Bowie]

Kind of predictable of me to say David Bowie is my favourite, but my music interests have actually changed quite a lot over the years! Right now I’m really into Unloved, Lana Del Rey, The Carpenters, Elton John, and some Eric Clapton. Used to be a huge fan of Lady Gaga, but that’s faded since she started with Enigma and things. Bit trashy to me.

Favourite song is either “And Dream or Sheep” by Kate Bush or “Ripples” by Genesis. Favourite album is currently Lana’s newest album, but overall it’s probably always going to be Kate Bush’s The Red Shoes.

 

[oath2order]

Carly Rae Jepsen - Higher

Years & Years - All For You

Probs my two fave songs

 

[John Wick]

Black Sabbath: Master of Reality.

 

[cornimer]

Favourite songs:
-Blessed Be (Jason Gray)
-Broken Sky/Long Day Reprise (Neal Morse Band)
-Stranger in Your Soul (Transatlantic)
-The Longest Time (Billy Joel)
-Supernatural (Neal Morse)

Favourite albums:
-Bridge Across Forever (Transatlantic)
-The Great Adventure (Neal Morse Band)
-All the Lovely Losers (Jason Gray)

And Dream of Sheep is awesome.
Hounds of Love was a great album.
