Dan Wilson's Tops of 2007
So I know it's a bit late, but it's still legitimate. Dan Wilson is rad and I'm so excited I was able to get in touch with him! Be sure to check out his new album, Free Life.
- What was your favorite album of 2007?
My favorite release of 2007 was - can I be honest here? - my own album, "Free Life," if only because it took me so long to make and the poor CD had to jump through 2 years of music biz hoops to get out.
AS for other people's music (much more fun for me to listen to), my fave releases were:
Radiohead's "In Rainbows" (sorta released last year, right?)
Bruce Springsteen's "Magic"
Feist's "The Reminder"
Jens Lekman "Night Falls Over Kortedala"
Bright Eyes' "Cassagaga"
- What was your favorite concert of 2007?
Bruce Springsteen at the Excel gave me a buzzy happiness that lasted for about 3 days.
- What was your favorite movie of 2007?
I saw three movies in 2007, "Ratatouille," "Superbad," and "Once." I loved them all but "Once" was my favorite. NOBODY has ever put the songwriting process in a film in such a real way.
- What was your favorite moment of 2007?
I enjoyed winning the Grammy Award for Best Song in February. That was pretty ridiculously fun.
I can't remember any least favorite moments from 2007, it was a pretty cool year, though a lot of hard work and long nights.
