    Dan is the most humble, kind, talented and overall incredible human being alive 🥺😭 I love him so much

    Weird!? Whoa, it is a real contrast for me to hear Dan say he has a "weird voice" when in my opinion he has the most beautiful male voice I have ever heard

    • @ANuStart8

      I agree. His voice easily portrays deep emotion. Maybe it's weird in the way that instead of just pretty or nice his voice has personality and it is comforting to hear.

    He's just so real... the way he addresses his dilemmas... It's so good to see someone "non fabricated" putting on good music. Love Bastille!

    This interview sends out the most positive vibes and provides a great role-model for anyone who wants to make it through in music industry. Also, love how his parents supported him when he struggled trying to earn his living while keeping making music at the same time. Made my day.😊

    They changed my life. I found them in 2013 and I didn’t have a favorite band before them. The impact they've made on not just me but so many others it's astounding. The connection I share with the lyrics, the way bad blood soundtracked my teenage years. I grew up with bastille and I'm entirely grateful. Dan is such a lovely role model to always have had to look up to. They're all great lads, love Bastille with all my heart. ☮️ ❤

    Saw them 16 times live and then suddenly in Germany outside a coffee shop I heard a familiar voice and shouted Dan. And it were Dan and Kyle. They were really nice.

    Such a good and humble guy, one day he'll truly appreciate how talented he is, but I hope he always retains such humility and openness. So unlike most artists today.

    They literally helped me become who I am today. I discovered them when I was 12, 10 years ago!
    So many different stages of life... to think my first kiss was while listening to "Get home" :0
    My first tattoo was a triangle, from Bad Blood era.
    I'm really grateful for all the time their music made me feel less alone

    Their genre is not something I typically care for but I've been a fan of Bastille for years. There's just something special about the way they deliver their craft as well as how they play off each other in love performances. I got all four albums.
