SPB: Have you ever forgotten lyrics mid-song? How did/do you recover?
Thanks for asking us! We have two singers and this actually happens to us -- especially with new songs! 

Jamie Radu: I usually just sing the line or verse over twice…or three times!

Vera Bozickovic: I definitely have blanked more than once and didn't let it get to me. I consider myself lucky to be in a genre where a well-placed growl or scream can mask most lyrical errors. The one time that really sticks out, I just belted out "yeahhhhh, yeahh yeahh yeahhh" in my best Brodi Dalle impression and hoped for the best!
