Answer the following questions.

Q: What was the first song you ever heard by #2?
A: She Moves In Her Own Way ... Fell in love with them immediately *-*

Q: What is your favorite album of #6?
A: Haven't heard the new album yet, to be honest, and I can't decide whether I like Silent Alarm or A Weekend In The City more...

Q: What is your favorite Lyric of #8?
A: O__O That's a pretty hard question... They've got amazing lyrics in nearly all of their songs, but as it's my ICQ-away-message at the moment: "And there ain't no point in the words I write..." (All My Senses)

Q: What is your favorite song by #9?
A: Definitely Drogenfrau!

Q: Is there a song of #1 that makes you sad?
A: Once cried because of Cover My Eyes...

Q: What is your favorite song by #7?
A: Hmm, let's go for I Won't Let You Down (:

Q: What is your favorite song by #10?
A: Aaah, how hard can this survey be... I don't know! My Top 10 bands are in my top 10 because I love (nearly) all their songs (:

Q: What is your favorite album by #8?
A: Maybe Ode To Ochrasy? But all their albums are great (:

Q: How did you get into #5?
A: My brother put an album of them (Living Targets) on the mp3-player I had when I was in like... 6th grade? And I was too stupid to put the music on it myself so then I had to listen to them every morning. At first, I hated him for than but now I love him really badly because they're the best band in the universe (;

Q: What is your favorite song by #4?
A: I really like Wo willst du hin of the new album, but also the classics like Feuer or Kopf oder Zahl...

Q: Who is your favorite band member of #3?
A: Haha, to be honest I hardly know them because when it comes to TWBA I just listen to their music and don't really know stuff about the band (;

Q: What is a good memory concerning #4?
A: Meeting funny people during their concert at the Open Flair Festival this summer (:

Q: Is there a song by #3 that makes you sad?
A: Er... No, tbh. :D

Q: What is your favorite song of #1?
A: I adore the whole album (La Roux) and that's why she's number one... All of the songs are amaaaaazing!

Q: How did you become a fan of #7?
A: Hmm... I think I saw Alright on the TV and then got the two albums and listened to them regularly... Pretty boring (;

Q: What do you like to do while listening to #6?
A: I usually listen to Bloc Party when I'm in the bus every morning and afternoon because the time passes soo much quicker (:

Q: Which of the 10 has influenced you the most?
A: Itchy Poopzkid were the first band to really influence me because I bought books they talked about in interviews, started listening to the bands they liked and even dressed like them. These days, I'd say it's La Roux because I tried to get her haircut and I really wished I'd be as cool as her (;

Q: Which artist makes you the most happy?
A: Haha, all of them! (:

Q: Which artist makes you the most sad?
A: Tbh, could be The Kooks because I haven't seen them live yet (really depressing -.-) and they always remind me of my term in England and of how bloody quick I lost my posh accent when I came back to Germany :D

Q: Which artist makes the best dance music?
A: I dance around to all of them... Maybe except for The Whitest Boy Alive (;

Q: Which artist have you liked the longest?
A: Def. the Beatsteaks!

Q: Which artist have you liked the shortest?
A: Only discovered La Roux a few weeks ago... (And I'm already addicted :D)

Q: Are there any artists you will still be listening to in 20 years?
A: Can't imagine not to :D
