What's your least favorite holiday song?
Andy Cohen: Well the worst song of all time is "Happy Birthday." It's like a slow march to hell. But holiday songs, I love holiday songs. They are all melancholy and sad. They all kind of make you want to slit your wrists and get under a blanket.

Who are you guys listening to right now?
Tegan and Sara: Chvrches is going to help honor Janelle Monáe tonight, and I think they are fantastic. I absolutely love them.
You guys have great music videos, are you involved in the process?
T&S: Absolutely. We always like to be involved, sometimes we actually write a treatment idea and then work with the director. In the case of "Closer," Isaac had a really cool idea that was set in a different location and then we talked to him and said, 'What if we turn it into a house party, and then add the karaoke element?' And that kind of spitballing and brainstorming happens with every video.
Did the dog version of "Closer" get your stamp of approval?
T&S: Yes, we thought the pet parody idea was brilliant. When they sent us the footage we loved it. We ended up doing a cameo; we weren't there when they shot the video but then we shot a a bit of a cameo because they wanted to include us and we loved it. We like to have a good sense of humor about ourselves.
Who is your favorite set of twins other than yourselves?

Kimberly Perry: Well Rita Neil and I are listening to a lot of music because we are diving back into song-writing mode. So we throw it back first and listen to music that shaped us. We listen to a ton of Queen, always the Rolling Stones, and Bobby Gentry, who is a great southern artist.
What's the worst gift you ever received?
