I have the BIGGEST crush on Imogen Heap ever. I saw her video blog and I (not being a person at all prone to celebrity crushes) was like "I am gonna marry her some day."

For me it's all about the 70's progressive! That and classical music are my biggest influences when writing songs, and metal of course...

Favourite non-metal bands are:
-Camel (Snowgoose is one of my all time favourite albums)
-Gentle Giant
-Wigwam (the finnish prog-band from the early 70's. They took a more rock oriented direction on their newer albums, but the old ones are brilliant. Being and Fairyport are my favourite Wigwam albums.) Not to be confused with Wig-wam.
-old Genesis (the prog days)
-Focus (yeah yeah, the Hocus Pocus band

But their Moving Waves album is truly a masterpeice.)
-Uriah Heep
-Pink Floyd

and one band that doesen't really fit into a category:
-Mr. Bungle

And like I said, I love classical music! Vivaldi being one of my favourites.
