Jack Johnson I really love this guy's music. I also admire him as a surfer and a damn good film-maker. Stephen Fretwell What beautiful sweet music he makes.. Guillemots Quite simply, i love this band. They are one of the most original/creative/exciting live acts i've seen in ages, they blew me away. They're going to be HUGE. My space..

Sara has a lush rating of 9.4 from 57 votes.

What is your favourite Embrace song?

This varies depending on my mood and i'm greedy - i can't possibly name just one! They currently are (in no particular order) :

Over
Out of nothing
Retread
Fireworks
I Had A Time
New Adam New Eve
I still love 'All You Good Good People' and probably will never tire of hearing it live.

What was your favourite Embrace gig?

2000 (i think) at Rock City - The first time i ever saw 'em live - cracking night. I remember just standing there singing my head off and clapping like a madwoman, thinking..this band knows how to put on a bloody good show! The thing that really struck me was the atmosphere, every time i see the band they just get better and better!



What is your favourite Embrace Album?

This also changes constantly, at the moment its DFM. I usually prefer to make my own albums with odds and sods of favourite Embrace b-sides and tracks from all of 'em.

What is your favourite Embrace B-Side?

Blind, Dry Kids, The Shots Still Ringing, Brothers and Sisters, Milk and Honey are among my faves.

In what order of greatness (1-10) would you place tracks from Out of Nothing?

Constantly changing the more i listen to it, but it currently..

5. Keeping
6. Spell it out
7. Wish 'em all away
8. Ashes
9. Glorious day
10. Gravity

Heaven is…

A lazy day down cornwall.... surfing and chilling out in the sunshine, drinking jack daniels (after surfing obviously) followed by a BBQ on the beach, then watching the sunset with Jack Johnson playing in the background.
If you throw chocolate in there and a bloke to keep me warm, that just about sums it up!

Hell is…

Having to work on a summers day when you should be doing the above.... oh and my postgrad course *shudder*.
