My favourite music group: The Flaming Lips, Pet Shop Boys

My favourite singer (male): No one better than Ron Sexsmith

My favourite singer (female): Bic Runga has the lyrics and chords that touch me the most. I also like Aimee Mann's music verrry much.

My favourite song:     1. Ron Sexsmith, Former Glory

                                 2. The Flaming Lips, Waitin´For A Superman

                                 3. Beach Boys, God Only Knows

                                 4. Pet Shop Boys, It´s A Sin

My favourite musician (classic): Johann Sebastian Bach; he´s a genius.

My favourite piece of music (classic): The Organ Symphony of Saint Saens: his 3rd I think (dedicated to Liszt)

My favourite classic music to play flute to: Bach again; I could play his pieces for hours without being bored! His arrangements can keep you busy with one piece of music for YEARS as you will develop new nuances, new ways of playing it as you play it again and again. Sometimes though it is depressing to play Bach as his pieces are quite difficult; then I prefer Wolfgang Mozart; bright music that have quality though.

My favourite CD: I have several; some that always seem to be in the list of lonely-island-records and some that have a big impact of me right now.The first group consists of:

Ron Sexsmith, Cobblestone Runway/ The Flaming Lips, Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots/ The Beach Boys, Pet Sounds/ Belle and Sebastian, Dear Catastrophe Waitress/ The Arcade Fire, Funeral.

The latter group is not occupied at the moment though.

My favourite writer (novels etc): classic: Oscar Wilde- I really like his wit and irony in his plays!

                                                  today: James Kelman- often compared to Kafka, he definitely is the better Kafka. His characters are very sensitively depicted, especially in their relationship to each other. In their acting, their are more interesting and believable than Kafka's, and reading Kelman's books is very intriguing- even though you know they will end at the same point they started at.

My favourite poems writer: Christian Morgenstern

My favourite book: James Kelman; The Burn/ Mary O´Hara; My friend Flicka / Oscar Wilde, The Importance Of Being Earnest.
