In a Q magazine article, Daniel mentions his favorite songs and bands and why he likes them (via danradcliffe.com).

Back then this site didn't excist. I decided to add 'archive news' like this as much as possible. I thought it might be interesting to read for you all.

Top 5:

5 - Hard to Explain by The Strokes
"One of the best songs from a phenominal album. I listen to 'Is this It' whenever I am doing homework."

4 - Time for Heroes by The Libertines
"Probably the most brutally honest song about England since Anarchy in the UK."

3 - San Quentin by Johnny Cash
"I love this live track especially when you hear the applause when he sings, 'San Quentin may you rot in hell'."

Daniel did send the following message to danradcliffe.co.uk and danradcliffe.com requesting to make a donation to Demelza House instead of sending him Christmas presents this year. Both websites are sponsoring a fundraiser.

Christmas appeal message:

In the past my fans have been truly generous in sending me fantastic presents especially for my birthday and at Christmas. I truly appreciate these and feel very fortunate to have such loyal fans. However, this Christmas, I would like to ask that instead of sending me a gift that they make a donation to DEMELZA HOUSE, a fantastic children’s hospice outside London that I support, which does amazing work for terminally ill children and their families. The focus of the hospice is in their words about, “Adding life to days when days cannot be added to life”. Please visit the website demelzahouse.org to find out more about this incredible place that I feel very proud to support.

Thank you for the kindness you have shown to me throughout 2003 and any help you can give to Demelza House this Christmas will be truly appreciated by me and everyone who is involved with this special place.

DANIEL
