In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My father teaching me "Country Roads" by John Denver on guitar. The BEST times!! That moment started everything... from his living room to songs ending up on TV shows around the world.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Creedence Clearwater Revival, Chronicle, Vol. 2: Twenty Great CCR Classics (Remastered) Depeche Mode, Music for the Masses (Bonus Track Version) Dishwalla, Opaline Music for the Masses, Depeche Mode. Chronicle, CCR. Opaline, Dishwalla. Writing "Until I Wake Up", "Angels or Devils" and "Somewhere in the Middle" for that album was the best creative experience of my life.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Until I Wake Up (Acoustic Version)” "Until I Wake Up" (Acoustic). I write a lot of songs and most are crap.... but this one I got right. My wife Min filmed the video in one day at home. It's about getting through depression and coming out the other side.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Winning Billboard Rock Song of the Year with DISHWALLA (and beating Metallica!).... Crazy times!
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Write a song with Gore and Gahan from Depech Mode. Also — I'm giving away free CDs to fans right now. No catch, just cover shipping. www.jrrichardsfreecd.com
