3. Robert Smith - Alex Harvey
In an interview with The Guardian, The Cure's Robert Smith said: “Alex Harvey was the physical manifestation of what I thought I could be. I was 14 when I first went to see him, and then I followed him around to all the shows. He never really got anywhere, even though he had something so magical when he performed – he had the persona of a victim, and you just sided with him against all that was going wrong. I would have died to have had Alex Harvey as an uncle.” | Ritzau Scanpix/AFP via Getty Ima Photo: Ritzau Scanpix/AFP via Getty Images
4. Brandon Flowers - Travis
Fran Healy recently opened up on the relationship between Travis and The Killers in an interview with Radio X saying: "Brandon told me at Live 8 that when us and Oasis played in Las Vegas it was one of these shows where all these young guys and girls came to. A lot of bands happened after that gig, and The Killers were one of those bands. Brandon was saying, when The Killers first started rehearsing they covered our song, Side. It was one of their cover songs! So it goes back a very long way....” | www.chrisphelps.com
