Favourite song and artist:
My favorite song would be either Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’, ‘November Rain’ by Guns N’ Roses, or Nirvana’s ‘Lithium’; and my favorite artist is Green Day.
Who is your musical idol?
Kurt Cobain.
A song and artist you hate:
The song I hate is definitely ‘Propuesta indecente’ by Romeo Santos because of its sexist lyrics and the fact that it justifies sexual assault; and an artist that I hate is Fifth Harmony due to their empty commercial style.
Favourite lyrics:
‘They’re sharing a drink they call loneliness, but it’s better than drinking alone’ (Billy Joel in Piano Man).
A song that represents your childhood:
I think it’s either Pokemon’s theme song or Green Day’s ‘Basket Case’; also the typical songs from the albums ‘Caribe Mix’ and Pink Floyd's entire discography (my dad's fault).
Which is the best concert you have been to?
I can’t decide between Europe’s one during the 22nd WSJ and Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg, both huge bands.
A song that gets you sad:
‘Where Did You Sleep Last Night’ covered by Nirvana is probably one of the saddest and most beautiful songs, not only because of the lyrics but because of Kurt Cobain’s way of singing it.
A song that instantly makes you happy:
‘Welcome to the Black Parade’ by My Chemical Romance.
Favourite Disney song:
No doubt about this one, ‘The Colors of the Wind’ from Pocahontas.
A song that marked a turning point in your life:
It has to be ‘Jesus of Suburbia’ by Green Day; what a perfect song.
Favourite song from a musical:
Every song from 'Les Miserables' is pure gold. I also have a true passion for any Liza Minelli song.
A song you can dance to:
Nobody would expect this but I can dance to ‘Single Ladies’ by Beyonce; not that I’m going to do it tough.
Which is your favourite song in Spanish?
Loquillo’s ‘Cadillac solitario’ (¡Qué viva la Movida!).
A song for your wedding day:
‘I Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing’ by Aerosmith, a classic.
Which is your favourite music video?
My favorite video of all time is the one for Green Day’s ‘Jesus of Suburbia’ but I have to admit that Lady Gaga’s ‘Til It Happens To You’ video takes my breath away and gives me the chills every time I see it. I’m currently in love with 5SOS’s ‘Hey Everybody!’, my life in a song and a video.
