ON KALAN

When did you get into Kalan? How? Why?
I didn't watch any Canadian Idol stuff until long after it was over, if I'm being honest. I saw the finale, but that was really it. My cousin actually bought Kalan's cd when it came out and brought it to my house. I listened to it, and was really impressed. Not necessarily my kind of music, but I thought "This boy can SING." I ended up buying it the next week, and even though the style is a bit different compared to everything else I listen to, I really enjoy it.

Favourite Kalan performance from CI?
So, after discovering this amazing kid, I had to go back and do my research. I watched every performance, and I have to say, my favorite one is a tie between "If you could read my mind" and "Nature boy". "If you could read my mind", simply because the song is gorgeous and Kalan sounds SO good doing it. "Nature boy" because I am sure I am not the only one who got CHILLS from that song.

Favourite Kalan song from 219 Days?
After All. No contest. Whatsoever. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I also have taken a liking to How Many Roads lately, as well. Really, the songs that Kalan had a hand in writing are incredible.

Favourite Kalan quality?
Superficially? I am so jealous of his HAIR. Oh. My. God. Beautiful. And those eyes. However, on a not-so-superficial level, I like the way he carries himself. It's one of the first things I notice about a person. He always comes off as humble and kind, to me, at any rate. I really, really like that. Also, that voice. Absolutely incredible.
