[@lukegale7812]

I'm quite sure the drill is part of a 'gritty' part of the song and is meant to sound unnerving rather than enjoyable at that moment. Surely it's more that people like the dark atmosphere of that part of the song as part of an experience? Like watching a horror film for a thrill etc. Billie and Finneas also use screams a lot too i noticed. I always think the sound of the X factor crowd screaming their support for the performers sounds kind of weird and desperate. They should use that sound too. And give me royalties : )

SO true! Low Key Charming. Like, I totally buy into his genuine nice-guy vibes and all, I really do. But I can't help suspecting that what this actually translates into, in real life, is that a) When you fall hard for him, it overtakes swiftly and is a complete surprise-as is the inevitable shock ten wonderful minutes later when he breaks up with you. And then, b) on his next number one track, you hear an autotuned version Finneas recorded of the sound your heart made when he smashed it into a million glittery pieces.

[@kjbw75]

Aaand, did you know he is also an actor? Check out Long-Haired Fabulous Finneas, on Glee: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3_OeYqMrM97q7s Cuz he likes to just jam out on his uke, sometimes, to classics. And then after, kiss a boy.

He was on glee?

[@RoyAksnes]

That's because he wasn't the star of the show (even though I never watched an entire episode of the show)....also, he looks different now because it ended many years ago and he wasn't so big as he is now so he hadn't someone telling him what to do with his public image, he hadn't released Ocean Eyes on Soundcloud (if that story is true).
