I think I love him because in very specific ways, we’re identical.
“On one shelf, Keuning keeps a few knick-knacks from his travels, “I don’t buy that much stuff on the road, but once or twice I do because otherwise you go to these places and you’ve got nothing to remember them by.” He holds up a model of the Liberty Bell from Philadelphia, and a little rock left next to his hotel bed in Toronto. “I didn’t know what it was but I took it to remind me of a time when I was so happy.” He points out a photograph of his young son who lives in San Diego, where Keuning also has a house.
Nearby is a family picture that appears to show his mother, whose death from cancer last March would inspire Day & Age’s most affecting track, closing number ‘Goodnight, Travel Well.’ As we leave the closet, he nods to an aged four-track recorder. “I made our first demo on that”, he says. “And when I cleaned out my storage space, and I just wanted to be done with it, I noticed this tape in a pile of dust… and it was the first version of ‘Mr.Brightside.’”
Keuning appears, much like his apartment, a jumble of the adult and the immature, of serious musicianship coupled with childish enthusiasm, a mannish boy of sorts. But what rises above anything is a sentimentality, for people and places, four-tracks and Pacman and Liberty Bells, that sits at odds with his somewhat steely stage persona.”
LMAO, my nephews were watching Disney channel and they were like, “Look Bertha! It’s Dave!”
Can anyone tell me what Dave Keuning is doing in a Selena Gomez video? >.>
