1, 5, 9, 20, 51

Thank you very much 💞😘

1. What is your favorite TK album?

Sam’s Town, Hot Fuss so close

5. When did you get into TK?

About a year and a half ago. I was very into The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and I heard Mr. Brightside for the first time in the lip sync battle he did with Ellen DeGeneres and I just fell in love with the song and further on with the band.

9. What was your favorite era performance-wise?

I think either Sam’s town with the glitter, the antler keyboard and the lights or Day and Age with the feathers, the colors and the palm trees.

20. What kind of sound do you want from TK5?

I want it to be powerful like Battle Born, and with the passion of Hot Fuss, I want Brandon to scream like on Jenny and in some Sawdust songs, with that heartbreaking behind-the-song-stories like on The Clock was Tickin’, Mr. Brightside and A Dustland Fairytale. OMG I want something like that Jenny bass line, the My List background chorus and the Read My Mind slaying guitar part. I want the lyrics to be unique like they have been in all their records and to be honest I’m not very keen on them having as much cooperations from other artists as they have announced? idk. But I also expect it to be the beginning of a brand new era like… nothing we’ve ever heard before or will hear ever again. sorry if that was too much😅

51. Favorite lyrics?

I made a list on my about page some time ago, here it is :)

THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH FOR SENDING THESE ❤️❤️❤️

4, 6, 13, 38, 44, 51 and 55.

4 - what is your favourite music video?all these things that i’ve done. purely for the shower scene and the eyeliner damn.

6 - what was the first tk song you ever heard?um i actually can’t remember… i was 3 when my parents bought hot fuss on cd, and my earliest memories are of the album as a whole… but i would assume that jenny was a friend of mine was the first one i ever heard.

13 - are there any songs that have a special meaning to you? why?rut, for sure. having suffered from anxiety, i relate to rut on a really personal level. every line in that song is something that i have been able to relate back to myself and the song reduces me to tears every time i hear it.

38 - do you think you’ll ever stop being a fan? why?no! never! i’ve grown up listening to the killers; i barely know a world without their music. they have been a massive part of my childhood, and now my teenage years. this is a fire that won’t burn out.

44 - do you ever want tk to collab with anyone?i mean, if they were considering it then totally. there’s this australian band that i really like called polish club (look them up, they’re amazing) i feel like a collab with novak (the lead singer) would be great.

51 - favourite lyrics?all of them. am i allowed to say all of them? actually, the man as a whole makes me feel so confident and good about myself, but if i had to say a specific line, probably, “you never shine if you never burn” i don’t know why but that line has always just kind of struck a nerve with me.

55 - favourite christmas single?i feel like this is really shallow, but don’t shoot me santa. i listened to it non-stop last christmas. i think my family wanted to confiscate my phone.

This river is wild ( ;) ), joy ride, shot at the night, and smile like you mean it please :D x

this river is wild: 
 what's the most adventurous/spontaneous thing you've ever done?

One of the most spontaneous things I’ve ever done was fly to California for a 1D show. I wanted to go really badly but then One Direction dropped fireproof and I knew I HAD to go. So I flew out and met @forbeatrice, @pointlessdonothing, and @rubycurls. I’m pretty sure it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

joy ride:
 something that makes you happy?

Gluten free vegan muffins from Laughing Dog Kitchen

shot at the night: something you've always wanted a chance to do?

Sing on national television. 

smile like you mean it: things that make you feel nostalgic?

Tupelo honey, tide laundry detergent, and Longaberger baskets.
