Finn Wolfhard's Honest Song Choices: Unpacking The star's Musical Journey

The first song I fell in love with
On a crisp seasonal day, I was home sick at age six. My mother wondered, "Is it true you don't know the Beatles?" She played Help! the motion picture, after which I played it repeatedly using her device all day long.

The track I perform at sing-alongs
David Bowie songs provide great entertainment, including Fame and Queen Bitch. No one sounds like Bowie, but I love the energy. I recently tried Save Me by the artist Aimee Mann, that made people lose interest, yet I enjoyed myself.

My initial album purchase
Kids my age liked Paradise from Coldplay, so I bought Mylo Xyloto from Barnes & Noble. This happened on my initial Los Angeles trip. I decided to buy albums. I bought Coldplay and Thriller simultaneously.

The music with all words in my head
My brother possessed Incredibad from the comedy group on CD. He played it constantly while traveling. Being young and hearing material considered off-limits felt exciting.

The ideal party track
This classic from The Emotions as it appears cheerful. Its tempo is flawless. It's easy listening, trendy but intricate, so it suits everyone.

The track I avoid now
When I discovered rock'n'roll, I loved Guns N' Roses. Initially experiencing Sweet Child O' Mine, I got hooked, yet currently I avoid it.

The ideal track to perform
Currently, my band and I are covering that space-themed song. I adore that track.

The song that changed my life
I appear in the music video for Guilt Trip by Pup. I played the younger version of the singer. It was my first music video. It awakened me to louder music, pushing me into the alt scene.

The song that makes me cry
That Alvvays number.

The song I'd like played at my funeral
My dad and I have an inside joke concerning this idea. I might not actually select it, but Half Gate by Grizzly Bear.
