Speaker 1: show that I get to do.

24
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, I just did three in New Zealand,

25
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 4: and like God, I just get up on the stage

26
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 4: and I'm just like, I just have to like every

27
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 4: single show. It's never it never feels normal, and every

28
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 4: show I have to stand there for a second and

29
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 4: actually just look around the room and take it in

30
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 4: and it's a crazy feeling.

31
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 3: And the best thing about you like to converse with

32
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: the crowd as well, So you have conversations, you get

33
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 3: paple up, you talk.

34
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, is that a big thing for you? It's got

35
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: to be that way to me.

36
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 4: I was saying this yesterday, like I really don't, I

37
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 4: really don't like the idea of.

38
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: Doing a show, like doing a show for people.

39
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 4: I want I want them to be like with me

40
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 4: at the show, like doing the show with me, and

41
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 4: like the idea of of.

42
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: Like I was saying, like.

43
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 4: I mean at this point yesterday and I'm just gonna

44
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 4: make it again because it sounded good.

45
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: That, Like I if there was a show.

46
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 4: That I did and I come off stage and I

47
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 4: wasn't happy about it for whatever the reason was. It's

48
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 4: almost always that it felt like the crowd was there

49
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 4: watching a show, yes, and I was the show that

50
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 4: they were watching instead of wasn't integrated.

51
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: It was like it wasn't interactive.

52
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 4: Like that's what I want, is like the connection, and

53
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 4: like I want I want them to be doing as

54
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 4: much of the show as I'm doing.

55
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, but if you stop down

56
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 2: and look at it and you go, oh, maybe that

57
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: show wasn't as good as I'd hoped, then what are

58
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: you suggesting may have happened?

59
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 4: I think that it just is like I have these

60
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 4: these wants and needs for my own like like I

61
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 4: want I want the crowd to be like you know what.

62
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: It feels right?

63
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah?

64
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 3: Can I just I was at your first coach performance

65
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 3: and you had technical problems, yes, but see, like we

66
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 3: knew with lights and stuff, we understood, but the way

67
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 3: that you interacted with the crowd, I would not have known.

68
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 3: Because and then watching your documentary The World's a Little Blue,

69
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: I could see like you beforehand, like I would have

70
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 3: melt like I would have had a melt down. I know,

71
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 3: just about to go out and everything just shuts down.

72
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: So much build up, but you then all of a sudden,

73
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 3: as soon as you hit that stage, Billy, is it

74
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 3: just you? Which on? You have to, don't you?

75
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: It's crazy?

76
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 2: But then you go from that extreme like the show

77
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: that you're going to do tonight and some of the

78
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: other big performances, and then when you go home to

79
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: just the family and you know, mom and Dad are there,

80
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: it's like such a vast change, such a different world.

81
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I know that you go back to the

82
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 2: basics of just being at home, but even when the

83
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: party's over and you're going through the idea for the

84
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: film clip in the backyard with your mummy and I

85
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 2: don't know if that's going to work. You're sitting around

86
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 2: the table in the backyard. Like to be able to

87
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: have those conversations, which it seems so simple and so

88
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: normal for any family, but then to be able to

89
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: take that to the world, it must be phenomenal to

90
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: see it develop and grow.

91
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: Telling you, dude is a it'd be.

92
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: Hard to make sense.

93
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: It's a real experience in my life.

94
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 3: Can you remember you started writing music at eleven? What

95
00:03:58,760 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: was your first song?

96
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 4: Well, okay, when I was a kid, I was writing

97
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 4: songs like a kid, like I was constantly singing and

98
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 4: constantly making stuff up, but it wasn't like a song song,

99
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 4: So I wrote like little songs when I was a kid.

100
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 4: When I was like five, is yeah, when I was

101
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 4: like five, I wrote a song with a friend on

102
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 4: my ukulele about like ukuleles and then like grass and.

103
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: I record it.

104
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 4: But my first my first song, I think. The first

105
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 4: song that I wrote was a song called I Think

106
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 4: it was either a song that I wrote called why

107
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 4: Not or a song that I wrote called fingers Crossed

108
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 4: was about I mean, it was like a lost love song,

109
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 4: but it was really about the fucking dead. Yeah, because

110
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 4: it was a I've said this before, but it was

111
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 4: a song exercise.

112
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: My mom actually was TA a songwriting.

113
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 4: Class, and one of the exercises was like, go home

114
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 4: and watch your favorite TV show or watch a TV

115
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 4: show or whatever, and anything that sticks.

116
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: Out to you that could be a lyric or could be.

117
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 4: Like a just anything interesting, just write it down. And

118
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 4: I was watching The Walking Dead because I was like

119
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 4: eleven and I like The Walking Dead, and I wrote

120
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 4: down a bunch of the things that they said in it,

121
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 4: and like the the episode titles and like, so I

122
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 4: wrote a song like about it.

123
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,239
Speaker 1: But it's very like you wouldn't know that. It sounds

124
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: like I'm just talking. Unfortunately, Yeah, yes there is.

125
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 4: We put it out on SoundCloud when I was like thirteen,

126
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 4: The fifty and Whip a podcast.

127
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 2: I love the Astralia is important to you as well

128
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 2: because of the sound that you got from the buzzle

129
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: when you cross the roads I love watching that.

130
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 4: Yeah.

131
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 2: Have you picked up any new sounds in Australia since

132
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 2: you've been here this time?

133
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 4: Dude, I haven't been like like I used to be.

134
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,799
Speaker 4: Like I used to go out and like walk around

135
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 4: and do stuff, and I have I don't do that

136
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 4: as much because life is a little different.

137
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 2: What about when you scan your food like it's self

138
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: check out.

139
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that could do it. I don't know.

140
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 4: I would have to go to a store to do that,

141
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 4: but we did. When we were in New Zealand, we

142
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 4: went on a bike ride. Because I've been I've been

143
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 4: going out more for the last couple of years. I

144
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 4: really when I was on tour, I was just like

145
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 4: scared to step outside because I was just worried I'm

146
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 4: not gonna be able to people are gonna which is

147
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 4: like I'm more chill about it now, I'm more comfortable

148
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 4: in it.

149
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: But so I have been doing more stuff. But I've

150
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: also just been busy.

151
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 4: But we were in New Zealand and we went on

152
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 4: a bike ride and there were these birds that like

153
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 4: were making this crazy robotic boom sound and it was

154
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 4: so sick and we were moving so I couldn't record it.

155
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: But I was with Dora, my friend, and we were like,

156
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 1: we were like, what is that sound? It's so amazing.

157
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 4: Dora and she makes music too, she's on tour with me,

158
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 4: but she she she's all She's all about the like

159
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 4: using weird sounds too, and so we both heard the

160
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 4: birds and we.
