Your Shumdario body language analysis is my reason for being. Any change of getting your take on their interactions when answering the question about their go-to karioke (spelling? I have no idea how to spell that word!) song?
Well, well.
Matt has a habit of clamming up when singing is involved, so seeing him immediately panic (above) because he couldn’t think of a go-to karaoke choice was natural. He held himself a little ways off and looked to Harry as Harry spoke, licking his lips, which was a subconscious case of dry-mouth nerves, while shifting his attention back and forth between Harry and the interviewer and quickly stating he didn’t have one. This could be observed as a ‘I don’t do singing, please let me pass’ response, getting in with a nil answer before the spotlight hits. Boy, he really does not enjoy the idea of singing publicly.
Matt was suddenly very happy and relaxed, pressure back off, as Harry sang along to his song of choice - Jefferson Starship’s ‘Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now’ - and took the spotlight. He figured out Harry was singing a different song to the one he was clearly thinking of and concentrated on his singing by watching his mouth like he tends to do, and Harry turned to him and kept going until Matt cut him off and suggested his pick - ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’ by Queen - to which Harry immediately gave Matt his attention and then approved the song choice (and Matt looked to him for approval). Considering he didn’t have a song pick earlier, Harry’s choice obviously inspired him in finding one. It’s just a little bit cute. Either way, I approve of both song choices. Nice.

Matt didn’t take his eyes off of Harry until he responded to the interviewer’s subtle attempt to get him to sing and he shifted his torso heart-to-Harry, right shoulder moving in like a blockade as he sassed the interviewer, to which Harry immediately laughed, amused. With the spotlight back on him (in a way he could now handle) Matt shifted closer to Harry until their arms brushed, presenting himself (as he did in a previous occasion on the same day) to the interviewer as a part of Team Matt&Harry, not as Matthew Daddario, open target for song questions.
