Speaker 3: And those two go quite well together.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 7: It's been a few years since you've been out here,
Speaker 7: and I don't want to harp on it too much,
Speaker 7: but I think, like everyone around the world. We were
Speaker 7: so caught up in that moment of Glastonbury when you returned.
Speaker 7: I'm a dad of three young boys, and one of
Speaker 7: my boys has been through a lot last couple of years,
Speaker 7: and I sat him down to watch the video and
Speaker 7: give him your backstory and stuff like that, and I know,
Speaker 7: you know, you don't want to take this sort of
Speaker 7: roll on, but you're a massive inspiration and role model
Speaker 7: to him.
Speaker 1: Mate, Thank you very much, man, and I appreciate that.
Speaker 7: And you're just doing what you did I think would
Speaker 7: have meant a lot to a lot of people in
Speaker 7: a similar situation.
Speaker 3: How you doing there?
Speaker 1: Great? Yeah, really really good.
Speaker 5: Sometimes I feel like I'm quite I'm too dismissive of it.
Speaker 5: Like on stage, I say like, you know, like I've
Speaker 5: got a song called Helen feeling now, and I say, before,
Speaker 5: you know, this song hen't feeling. There's about me, you know,
Speaker 5: struggling and having a hard time. And I say before, like,
Speaker 5: I can't relate to this song anymore. I'm very happy
Speaker 5: to see I can't relate to this song anymore. Yeah,
Speaker 5: because I'm having such a good place. But sometimes I
Speaker 5: feel that can be a bit dismissive. Because it's not
Speaker 5: like it's not like a yeah, straight road, do you
Speaker 5: know what I mean? It's all very you still have
Speaker 5: like your days or whatever. But for the most part,
Speaker 5: I'm feeling smashing.
Speaker 7: So are you being almost a bit more selfish now?
Speaker 7: Not just saying yes to everything?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Exactly exactly, like even like doing you know, like one
Speaker 5: on tour or the last when we did the UK
Speaker 5: two A. I was like, I'm not going to do
Speaker 5: anything other than play the shows and stuff, Like I
Speaker 5: obviously coming down here. I don't come down here a lot,
Speaker 5: so I like to. I want to come in and
Speaker 5: like speak to everybody and have chats and stuff. But yeah,
Speaker 5: just of protecting my peace a little bit more.
Speaker 6: Exactly for all of us, performer is your job.
Speaker 4: It's not the whole world.
Speaker 3: Not a lot of blokes sort of verbalize that.
Speaker 2: Just in that moment, Like what is it like being
Speaker 2: at one with a crowd like you were in Glastonbury.
Speaker 2: I don't want to sound too cliche, but it must
Speaker 2: be you must almost feel quite invincible yet vulnerable as well.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's mad. It's a very strange thing to
Speaker 5: be perceived by that many people. Do you know what
Speaker 5: I mean like to be like thing is so Yeah,
Speaker 5: It's one of those things where sometimes you have to
Speaker 5: sort of go on a not a pilot to like
Speaker 5: not lose your not like sort of realize the magnitude
Speaker 5: of the Situation'll be makes where you feel like a
Speaker 5: hundred bucks and you're like one hundred bucks to know,
Speaker 5: I said that my line, like a.
Speaker 1: Hundred bucks Smacker ronies.
Speaker 5: But there'll be nates where you go on and yeah,
Speaker 5: like you've come on and you the crowds like popping
Speaker 5: and you're having a great time and it feels amazing
Speaker 5: and you're like that's is and yeah, you do feel
Speaker 5: like it's better than any drug.
Speaker 1: Not that I have tried drugs at all, but I am.
Speaker 5: I think it's yes, better than any sort of you know,
Speaker 5: booze drug whatever in the world that I imagine. I'd
Speaker 5: imagine That's what I was gonna say. And then there's
Speaker 5: other times where maybe you're not feeling as hot. It's
Speaker 5: a weird it's a weird, weird thing. It's it's all
Speaker 5: very mood dependent and stuff that.
Speaker 6: Can I ask about a new single the day that
Speaker 6: I die. It is such a powerful song. I mean
Speaker 6: I heard it and felt extremely emotional listening to it.
Speaker 6: I imagine you write a song like that and that's
Speaker 6: one thing, but then to release it to the world,
Speaker 6: it must be something completely separate.
Speaker 5: Yes, So that song specifically is very terrifying to release
Speaker 5: because it was just very I hate saying stuff like
Speaker 5: that because everyone says it when they're like promoting a
Speaker 5: single or whatever.
Speaker 1: But I don't think.
Speaker 5: I don't think I've never been as open before, even
Speaker 5: in some of my other stuff where people in the
Speaker 5: past have been like, oh, you're being very vulnerable or
Speaker 5: whatever it is.
Speaker 4: But it's a pretty it's a pretty special song then.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it was a scared I was a scary
Speaker 5: one to put out there. But the response to it
Speaker 5: has been really lovely and people have been so nice
Speaker 5: and just.
Speaker 1: A niceness pressure when they relaxed by yeah, exactly what
Speaker 1: I mean.
Speaker 4: Yeah, number five, you're out here in a very busy
Speaker 4: time of year. What what do you do for Christmas?
