The actor's Candid Music Selection: Unpacking The star's Favorite Tunes

The first song I fell in love with
During a fall day, I was home sick at age six. My mother wondered, "Have you really not listened to the Beatles? She put on Help! the movie, after which I listened to it on loop on her iPod all day long.

My karaoke go-to
David Bowie songs provide great entertainment, including Fame and Queen Bitch. No one sounds like Bowie, yet I adore the vibe. I recently tried Save Me by the artist Aimee Mann, which didn't engage the crowd, but I had fun.

The first CD I bought
Friends were into Paradise from Coldplay, thus I purchased Mylo Xyloto at the bookstore. It occurred during my debut California journey. I thought to purchase records. I bought Coldplay and Thriller on the same day.

The track whose lyrics I memorized
My brother possessed Incredibad by Lonely Island in physical format. He listened to it repeatedly in the car. Experiencing something material considered off-limits was really fun.

The perfect gathering tune
This classic from The Emotions since it feels joyful. Its tempo is flawless. It's easy listening, cool and challenging, therefore fitting for various tastes.

The track I avoid now
During my rock introduction, I was into Guns N' Roses. Initially experiencing the well-known song, I became obsessed, though presently I skip it.

The ideal track to perform
Currently, my band and I play that space-themed song. I adore that track.

The transformative music
I participated in the clip for the Pup song. I portrayed the younger self of the singer. It introduced me to video production. It awakened me to louder music, pushing me into the alt scene.

The emotional track
That Alvvays number.

The memorial service music
We share a private humor about this topic. I might not actually select it, but Half Gate by Grizzly Bear.
