Penguin Prison
is otherwise known as Chris Glover – who has sung in a gospel choir alongside Alicia Keys, had an entire album shelved for being «too crazy» and featured in a fake boy band. The born New Yorker resides now in London and is recording his debut album.
I just remember trying to figure out the words and arguing with a friend about what he was saying. The «broke our knees» line I didn't understand for years.
The entire «Abbey Road» album. It's like one long song.
At Madison Square Garden. He played for 3 hours but it seemed very short.
Probably a Wu-Tang song. More specifically an Ol’ Dirty Bastard song. Perhaps «You Don't Wanna Fuck With Me» off one of the greatest albums of all time.
Although by depressed I mean happy.
Probably some rare Operation Ivy record when I was in 9th grade.
Who knows! Maybe «Rain Song» by Led Zeppelin. In junior high school there was a year where I only listened to 3 Led Zeppelin songs all year long.
I just remember the actual record not actually listening to it. I remember where my parents kept it in a drawer next to a desk right near the front door of our apartment.
Where it's just whatever sound is happening at the time and place it's being performed.
I didn't do anything all summer! It was the summer before I went to college and I was confused.
I have no idea. My heart can't be broken.
«New York, New York» by Frank Sinatra? Or that new Jay-Z song?
Best dance recording ever. Don't argue.
First one that I actually bought with my own money was possibly Tom Petty’s «Into The Great Wide Open» on cassette. I loved Tom Petty. I can do a good impression of him.
I sang that at a school assembly once. This one guy who was older than me said I had big balls. I thought he meant that literally until a few years later I realized he did not mean it literally.
Any Billie Holiday song. «All Of Me» is one I used to have as my ring tone. I love her very much.
I don't know if I can be seduced. Maybe «Soldier Of Love» by Sade. Maybe she can.
If I were 15. Now? It would probably have to be something I wrote for me to do that.
«That Lucky Ol' Sun» sung by Ray Charles or Johnny Cash. That's a good one.
Maybe an Aerosmith video? «Dude Looks Like A Lady» perhaps?
I hope to one day make a song that good.
