Howlin' Pelle Takes 5 with blockbuster songs

Howlin’ Pelle is a joy to be around. As the longtime lead singer for Swedish garage rock legends The Hives, he brings big energy on stage and off. The band are known for their live shows, and their forthcoming new album is one they wrote with a stadium sensibility in mind. So when The Hives returned to Australia for the first time in 10 years, I asked him to choose his blockbuster songs. From AC/DC to Outkast to Billie Eilish, this is a fist pumping, heart filling conversation about music's power.

• AC/DC - Thunderstruck 
• OutKast - Hey Ya 
• Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have Fun
• Billie Eilish - Bad Guy 
• Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
