      1. What is your favourite Gotye song?
      2. What do you think of Gotye’s song ‘somebody that I used to know’?
      3. Compared to the mostly pop-electronic music of 2011, do you think Gotye’s more alternative style helped him stand out in the charts?
      4. Do you think the weirdness of the music video (compared to the bright lights of others) helped people remember the song, more?
      5. What is your stance on an artist taking a break from making music to pursue his own passions?
      6. Should old music be preserved, even if not many people know of the artist?
      7. If you have an opinion, what is your opinion of Gotye’s secondary passion towards preserving the works of Jean-Jacques Perrey

    I'm living with your memory
    In the attic in my mind
    And you've been getting by without me
    But I've been spending all my time
    With a girl that I remember
    Who'll never leave or need to grow
    'cause when you left you left your memory
    Now it's the only thing I know
    When the past gives me no comfort
    And though the future is the cost
    The way I'm choosing to remember
    I'll forever be the man I never was
    And you, you fade
    But the memory remains the same
    And I, I can't change
    And I think that living with your memory
    Is slowly driving me insane
    You are perfect but you're empty
    And it gets so lonely in my mind
    'cause your image in my memory's
    The only shred of you that's left behind
    You were real but then you left me
    And that's the part I can't accept
    So I'll keep on living with your memory
    Because it's all that I've got left

    Gotye is one of my favorite artists. The way his music makes me feel is much more vivid than with other music. His song bronte made me cry like a waterfall and whenever I listen to somebody that I used to know i get goosebumps all over. His song 7 hours with a backseat driver makes my fantasy go on a journey full of comical and macabre things. His music videos are always very fitting too. I am full of anticipation for more of his interesting content.

    Memories broken
    The truth goes unspoken
    I’ve even forgotten my name
    I don’t know the season
    Or what is the reason
    I’m standing here holding my blade
    A desolate place
    Without any trace
    It’s only the cold wind I feel
    It’s me that I spite
    As I stand up and fight
    The only thing I know for real
    There will be blood-shed
    The man in the mirror nods his head
    The only one left
    Will ride upon the dragon’s back
    Because the mountains don’t give back what they take
    Oh no
    There will be blood-shed
    It’s the only thing I’ve ever known
    Losing my identity
    Wondering have I gone insane
    To find the truth in front of me
    I must climb this mountain range
    Looking downward from this deadly height
    And never realizing why I fight
