Tarquin sang along, trying to imitate Michael, twisting his voice into an american accent, but he didn't like the sound of it at all and promptly gave up, slipping back into his usual accent. "I preferr it the way I sing it," he called over the music to Michael by way of explanation, and carried on trying to catch and copy the lyrics Michael was singing, holding the microphone close to his lips, and singing into it, half smiling at the words.

"Okay then," he called over and carried on singing, softer though then before. he then suddenly changed to another song. "Seven Nation Army! You should know this!" he said, playing the quite simply tune on his guitar, waiting for Tarquin to start singing.

Tarquin shook his head apologetically, he wasn't really into this type of music, it was too gritty and loud for his refined tastes. "I've heard it before, yeah, but I don't know the lyrics," he explained, hoping he wasn't being too irritating. He bowed his head, looking at the floor awkwardly for a moment, before thinking of something he could sing perfectly. "Can you play any Blur?" he asked, hoping against hope that the answer would be yes.

Michael shrugged. "Yeah, okay then. here we go," he said and laughed and let his music become softer as he started to play the lyrics of 'Song 2'. They died, before at the right moment became very loud ago as the music started.

This time Tarquin sang with a lot more confidence, as far as he was concerned, this was his song. He knew the guitar riffs off by heart, and all the lyrics, also, he could mimic Damon Alburn's voice perfectly, seeing as they sounded quite alike. "I got my head checked, by a jumbo jet, it wasn't easy, but nothing is no....." he sang, before breaking into the ecstatic chorus of "Woo hoo," that he loved so much.

Michael didn't know any other Blur songs, and suddenly let it come to an end, letting his hand drop for a moment, before he turned to Tarquin with a broad smile on his face. He nodded, panting slightly. "Dude, you sing well. Brit-pop is for you,Tarq," he said, a little michevous grin on his face.

Tarquin grinned lazily back, lapping up the compliment like a thirsty puppy dog. "Yeah, I know, it's the only type of music I like," he said, happy they had found something they could both agree on.

He laughed."Now all we need is a drummer or a guitarist. I can't do both really," he said, sighing, looking down at his crimson guitar and then he looked up. "I could teach you how to play the drums, if you like?" he proposed.

Tarquin shook his head, looking at the drum kit warily. "No way, I've got no sense of rhythm, I'd be terrible at it. I'm sure we could find a guitarist around here..." he said, looking around hopefully, as if a guitarist would just appear out of mid air. Sadly, no such miracle occurred. He vaguely remembered talking to someone who had mentioned guitars, if only he could just remember... "Ah! Got it!" he cried as the memory resurfaced in his mind. "There's a girl, Liza who plays bass...I think she said she could play lead too, she just preferrs bass, we could ask her..." he suggested, feeling quite proud of himself for resolving their problem.

Michael nodded, a smile hopefully on his face. "She indeed could," he commentated. He then looked at his guitar and took a deep breath. "You know any Muse songs?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. And out of sheer amusement he stated playing 'Black Math' by the White stripes, singing the lyrics as he went. it was a hard to song to play really and it had been sometime since he had done so. He wondered if Tarquin would follow, before he started playing Muse.

Tarquin listened appreciatively, but he couldn't really get in to this type of music. "I know Starlight, but I can't sing high enough for that," he replied to Michael's question, getting bored and lying back on his bed again, staring up at the ceiling.

"Franz Ferdinand?" Michael said once finished playing and leaning against the wall. Tarquin was becoming hard now. "What do you like except for Blur?" he asked, getting tired now.

Tarquin nodded, indicating that he did know Franz Ferdinand, but he did so with a nonchalant air. "Yeah, I know them, they're good...not as good as Blur or anything else with Damon Alburn in, but they're good...I like Oasis too, they make good music, even if they're always getting into fights," he replied. He didn't discuss his music tastes much, and when it came to it, he often found he couldn't remember half the bands he liked.

"Okay, what do you want to sing?" he asked, asking another question, wodnering if he was able to play of the songs he just mentioned.

"I like singing wonderwall. I know, you've probably heard it way too many times before, but I can sing it really well...No idea what it's about though," Tarquin replied with a slight laugh, looking apologetic, as he didn't know anything else Michael would be able to play.
