1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 1: It fits in, George, I'm sure we didn't know that.

2
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: George didn't I forgot? So why we love anyone?

3
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 2: Anyone?

4
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 3: Anyone?

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 4: For you? Tiger?

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 3: Where's the tiger reference from? George? Do you know what?

7
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 4: Because like, you know, like in the past, I've relied

8
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 4: on going on these journeys before writing albums and things

9
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 4: like that. And then obviously I was in, you know,

10
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 4: pandemic lockdown. Couldn't go anywhere. So I started reading back

11
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 4: through old journals and diaries and like lyric ideas, and

12
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 4: there was just this whole few pages dedicated to the

13
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 4: idea of title. I was like, I'll have that, thank you, George.

14
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 4: George the title song of the album gold Lust Kid,

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 4: there's a song called and they're like verse lyrics I've

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 4: had for years and years.

17
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 5: Are there any things you came across in your old

18
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 5: diaries though, where you went whoa that ain't making it

19
00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 5: into a song?

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 4: Ninety five percent? I would say, genuinely, I'm not talking.

21
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 4: If you're someone that keeps a diary, do not read back, George.

22
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: What year did you start diarizing? Made? And was it

23
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: how did each page start?

24
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 4: Was it?

25
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: Dear diary?

26
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: Today I'm about fifty, I'm having these really strange changes

27
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 2: with my body, actually awkward.

28
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 5: Then how does it feel to get a call to

29
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 5: perform at the Coen's Jubilee?

30
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: How does it feel?

31
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 4: It just feels mad, it feels bonkers. I guess don't

32
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 4: ask too many questions because just how does that happen?

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: George? Talk us through the process. Do you get a

34
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: phone call? Do you get a letter in the mail?

35
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: Is the record label running them?

36
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 2: What was it?

37
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 4: It was, Yeah, I've got a phone call from like

38
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 4: one of the team my side, and they were like, look,

39
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 4: just don't ask exactly that. Well, I don't ask quite.

40
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 4: You've been invited to play at the Queen's.

41
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 3: He no, you're playing it, George, Yeah, he's playing queens.

42
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 3: Who's some on the list?

43
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 4: Genuinely, I have no idea.

44
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 5: The Spice girls are doing it.

45
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: I know that they're not.

46
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 5: Did they draw?

47
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: Are they you're asking? You know?

48
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 5: They announced that they were, because all five, including Posh

49
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 5: will that's yeah, well.

50
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: I reckon that. The last time the Queen had an

51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: event that was where ed sheer and got a sword

52
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: from Beatrice across the face.

53
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 5: That wasn't an official event.

54
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 1: The Queen wasn't invited that that was a royal event.

55
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 3: They did a fake knighthood, didn't.

56
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, so just that story was public.

57
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 5: Plant came on the show and verified, so just.

58
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: Be careful of Beatrice Bulls the sword out man. How

59
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: was your chicken pox experience made? Did that feel good?

60
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: I mean just to have I'm looking at the photo

61
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: when you wake up in the morning and go, oh

62
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: my god, look I have a look at my head.

63
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 4: No, it was enough. It was miserable, like I don't

64
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 4: want to sit here like feeling sorry for myself. But

65
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,399
Speaker 4: there's nothing fun about it. The worst thing is right,

66
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 4: I managed to dodge the most fashionable virus of my

67
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 4: lifetime for two years when I had absolutely nothing going on,

68
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 4: and then I'm supposed to go on and play gigs

69
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,400

Speaker 3: doing that?

81
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 4: George? I loved it? Do you know what? Like? It

82
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 4: was actually ordered them before the lockdown, so was able

83
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 4: to do them with the people. So that with Elton,

84
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 4: it was the first thing you get the call saying yes,

85
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 4: he's up for it, and then you get you're doing

86
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 4: it at his house. So then next thing I know,

87
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 4: you know, I'm stood there with all this recording view

88
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 4: that I barely know how to use. It was incredible.

89
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: Man.

90
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,599

00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: Wow, God, George, what what what is Elton's place like? Like,

92
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: what's something that surprised you when you walk through the

93
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: door to see? Is there shrines to Elton? Does he

94
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: hang the old records on the walls? Or what's the

95
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: place decked out with?

96
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 4: I mean, not not in the wing that I saw, certainly,

97
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 4: but there was. It was just just next level. I

98
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 4: don't like, it was just beautiful and it kind of,

99
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 4: you know, it kind of blew my mind.
