Chet Faker's decade

10 years ago, a fellow called Nick Murphy put out his debut album. The Melbournian traded on the name Chet Faker, buzz was building, but when Built on Glass was released, no one knew how big it would become.

Darren Hayes' love songs

There aren’t many Australian bands who have sold 23 million copies of their albums. Cast your mind back to the late 90’s, and a duo from Brisbane called Savage Garden. Darren Hayes was the angel-voiced frontman, and after putting out two hugely successful albums he went solo. Now many years later he’s published a memoir titled Unlovable, and the story of his life as a little kid growing up in the South Brisbane suburbs, to becoming a worldwide pop star, and finally coming out, is one we’ve never heard like this before. Diana Ross - 'Reach Out And Touch (Somebody's Hand)' Peter Gabriel - 'Love To Be Loved' Madonna - 'Mother And Father' Taylor Swift - 'exile [Ft. Bon Iver]' George Michael - 'Jesus To A Child' There are parts of this conversation that explore Darren’s experiences with family violence. It’s a big part of his story, so please be warned.

Casey Donovan's sanctuary songs

It’s hard to believe that 20 years ago Casey Donovan won Australian Idol. Just 16 years old, she was thrust into the spotlight and every high and low was captured for all to see. She took away the main prize, but in the years following would be working as a medical receptionist and a rideshare driver to pay the bills. Casey threw her hat back in the reality show ring with I’m a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here, and won again. And in the past few years, she’s had a kind of second life starring in hit musicals across the country. Through it all, her powerhouse voice and grounded nature has endeared her to millions of Australians. For me, watching her belt out huge songs every New Years Eve proves she’s unparalleled. In music and life, Casey can take just about anything thrown at her. But what is the music she retreats to, when she needs it most? This is a beautiful conversation with a resilient Queen, and the stories that led her here. Mr. Big - 'To Be With You' Maggie Rogers - 'Light On' Allen Stone - 'Bed I Made' Maddie Zahm - 'You Might Not Like Her' James Bay - 'One Life' Watch Take 5 on ABC iview: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

Bernard Fanning's vulnerability and bravado

Bernard Fanning is no stranger to the limelight. With Powderfinger he sold millions of albums and rocked out to stadiums of adoring fans. Then he stripped it back as a solo artist and went Number 1 again. Bernard holds the record for the most amount of Hottest 100 number 1’s, he is adored by generations of Australians, and is one of the most enjoyable people to chat music with. Bernard’s new project with Paul Dempsey proves he’s still compelled to create music, and with all of this history, we sat down in Melbourne’s legendary Bakehouse Studios to Take 5. Interestingly, Bernard came up with his own theme for this one; he was super keen to explore the world’s of vulnerability and bravado. And from Bowie to Nina Simone, AC/DC to Bob Dylan, we unpacked a whole lot more. Settle in for this special extended cut of Bernard Fanning's Take 5. AC/DC – ‘Jailbreak’ David Bowie – ‘Sound And Vision’ Nina Simone – 'I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free’ Prince – ‘1999’ Bob Dylan – ‘Most Of The Time’ Watch Take 5 on ABC iview: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

Neil Finn's songs of ascension

Neil Finn is one of our greatest living songwriters. In Split Enz and Crowded House, solo and in his collaborations, his tunes have become the soundtrack to our lives. I’ve been chasing Neil to Take 5 for the TV series since the beginning, and finally he said yes. Even better, he invited us to film at his own studios. Roundhead, a pale green building on an Auckland street that has seen some incredible music history go down. Bunker down in the basement of Roundhead, as Neil Finn shares the DNA of his songwriting heart, and the music that soars for him. David Bowie – ‘Quicksand’ Ludwig van Beethoven – Piano Sonata No.8 “Pathétique” in C minor, Op. 13, 2nd Movement: Adagio cantabile (performed by Arthur Rubinstein) Split Enz – ‘Time for a Change’ The Beatles – ‘Across the Universe’ Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong – ‘Summertime’ Watch Take 5 on ABC iview: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

Claudia Karvan's songs of hope

Many of us have grown up with Claudia Karvan. She's been on our screens since she was 10 years old, starring in films like The Big Steal and The Heartbreak Kid. And we’ve fallen in love with her on the small screen, in her long running roles on The Secret Life of Us and Love My Way. These days, Claudia is not only an actor but a hugely successful producer behind TV shows like Doctor Doctor and Bump. Through all she does there is a great sense of optimism, so I gave her the theme of hope. And from John & Yoko to The Velvets to BARKAA, she confirmed once again why she is universally loved. John Lennon – ‘Hold On’ Ibrahim Ferrer – ‘Marieta’ The Velvet Underground – ‘I’m Sticking With You’ BARKAA – ‘We Up’ Sinéad O’Connor – ‘Thank You for Hearing Me’ Watch Take 5 on ABC iview: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

Bill Bailey's songs of humanity

Bill Bailey is one of the most loved comedians in the world. From his breakout role as Manny in the cult TV show Black Books, to his exceptional talent for playing multiple instruments, he always leaves his audiences feeling brighter. Bill is fascinated with natural history and humanity, his curiosity knows no bounds and music has been a constant companion. I asked him to Take 5 with songs that reflect humanity, and he gifted me an extraordinary conversation about life, death, risk taking and memory making. I was buzzing after this chat, and I hope you will be too. The Kinks – ‘You Really Got Me’ PJ Harvey – ‘Big Exit’ Johnny Cash – ‘Hurt’ Foals – ‘Mountain At My Gates’ Talking Heads – ‘Once In A Lifetime’ Watch Take 5 on ABC iview: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

This is a great podcast, but especially if you’re a music nerd and need to know more about your favorite bands. Great topics, deep subjects, hits all the feels. Also the interview is done really well and respectful of the artist. I’m a sucker for a good interview, also Zan’s voice is very pleasant. One of my favorite podcasts!
Amazing episode in one of my favorite shows

Zan Rowe is a very talented EJ interviewer on double J radio and this whole Series (take 5) is fascinating to anyone interested in music and/or the creative process. This particular one is with Max Richter, who is well known outside the popular Music world as a modern classical musician and composer. He talks about how a wide range of classical, electronic, rock and jazz music has inspired him, exemplified in the five pieces of music he chose to discuss. This is radio at its absolute best.
Awesome
