ALBUM: COVERED IN DARKNESS. You pick the songs & arrange them epically.
Thought this was a Mighty Boosh reunion at first.
Hahahaha rather funny.
Lance Dior and Harold Boom
Miss that show
'Justin and the Chocolate Factory Rides Again'
Make it happen!
Never liked the term shits n giggles but it’s apt for the conversation I’m hearing just now😂
Just spotted the Hoff :D
This wasn't an interview so much as it was a conversation. And that's what I love about it.
In an actual conversation, you still can find things out about people, but it happens much more naturally and with more subtlety.
This was a perfect conversation. Quite relaxing and highly enjoyable.
My two favorite frontmen talking for 2 and a half hours? Don’t mind if I do!
Aaaaaaand they’re talking about shitting themselves lol
Justin Hawkins interviewing 1976 Freddie Mercury .
Lol. Yes it is uncanny.
It really is haha
✨⚠️ Justin, you & Luke are due for another great conversation... Please.
I remembered how good this one was, so I decided to watch it again. However another talkie would be great! 😊✨
Thank you both for talking so honestly about your disordered eating & body image issues. It's an area that (unnecessarily) still carries quite a stigma & it was refreshing to hear a frank discussion around feelings a lot of people struggle with.
Male or female, we're all exposed to unrealistic standards & expectations & should feel able to open up the conversation without shame or fear of judgement.
In the same vein, I hope the man who asked about the suit in a plus size waist was either joking or unfazed by being laughed at though
Two charismatic frontmen shooting the shit. This is great to listen to.
You gotta be a badass if you're going to have a serious conversation about 'tassels'.
I am sooo thankful to Justin for this video- because now I have a new crush not only for Justin but for Luke!!! ♥️ he has the most beautiful features and he has awesome humor😂🤗 all the love to you both from sweden
Catching up on my boy.
wow. what an enjoyable chat to sit in on.
Luke is utterly lovely!
Justin has such a knack for putting his guests at ease and these two sharing stories and talking of serious topics like body image, the difficulties of mgmt/media/promotion/relationships is stellar!
Great interview you two.....thank you!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview! It was insightful, funny, revealing and excellent. Luke was brilliant talking about loads of different topics, and it's made me want to check out The Struts - so thank you so much! 🙂
Playing catch up here, but that was the absolute BEST. Better than any DJ or journalist "interview" with a musician that I have ever seen. Clear mutual respect, shared sense of fun and an actual understanding of what you are talking about. THANK YOU!
Just discovered this channel...GOLD.
Suppose I will binge listen/watch a bunch of stuff. Splendid.
Luke is a combo of Freddie, Joan Jett and Liza Minnelli! Not a slight but that’s what I see.
Perfect description. 😁
A true "fly on the wall" moment. Thank yous for letting us in on this! Absolutely fantastic.
Toyota Raptor lol
That guy looks like a cross between Freddie Mercury and Joan Jett.
I was thinking about Joan Jett, too!
Someone in the comment said something about the Mighty Boosh, too, so then I was reminded of Noel's line on 'Live at the Apollo' about how he looks like Joan Jett on HRT 🤣
Bullriding being describe as bull teasing and being homoerotic...just to funny. And possibly quite true. 😆😆😆😆😆😆
Surely these 2 have to Tour together
My two favorite singers! You guys need to tour together!!
A journalist once set up an interview with Keith Richards. Before the camera was on Keith was articulate, sober, and alert. Once the camera was on Keith started slurring his words, and sort of made it known he was drinking vodka. Keith knows exactly what he's doing.
That's interesting, a good autobiography as well, a bit deeper than most I found
Dean Martin was the same way. Sho'biz
Both of you blokes, maybe one generation apart, have that badass Rock&Roll ethos down. Not only the look, but the voices and, finally, a massively kickass band. You both make me totally jelly AF, ya bastards.
Dear Mr Rides-Again: I couldn't help but notice that within the confines of this video's parameters, that is to say, between the beginning and the end, the subject of your performances at Knebworth came up. Now, I'm sure you will recall that I was not there for any of those performances, but specifically the one on the Saturday, which is the one that I tried to get to, but which was prevented from doing so by the prevalent traffic situation of the day, meaning that I missed your performance at that iconic venue by similar parameters as the ones found in this video, that is to say, between the beginning and the end. Indeed, with the benefit of hindsight, I may be so bold as to venture that I missed all of it. Fucking all of it. I hope you will forgive a certain amount of repetition within this comment, caused by nineteen years of anger at having missed your performance and having to start that particular day with Sharon Osbourne. I wonder if it might be possible for you to recreate that performance on your channel, perhaps even wearing the same stage costume that you wore on that day (also mentioned in this video)? Don't worry if you can't, I'm quite happy to accept the performance in any costume that you have to hand. x
Your point about writing a song in 10 seconds is something I can really relate to. I’ve been writing, producing and performing music since I was about 12. Now at 30, I discovered the perfect formula yesterday morning. I plugged into my Mac, put on a metronome, and pressed record. 10 minutes later I wrote possibly my best and most progressive song I have ever done. Usually I’d be disappointed if it took me long than an hour to write. But this was just free-flowing dynamic magic spilling out of me. Lyrically I accidentally poured out some really interesting and quite moody yet uplifting material that I wasn’t even aware I was feeling. It’s lovely when a song writes itself 😁
The Latin phrase origin Justin is trying to think of when Luke talks about ad-libbing is ad libitum, which means "at one's pleasure" or "as one desires".
Great stuff. And we got two "shit stories" ! Hilarious. Thank you guy's. Justin....I'll see you this March in Vegas.
My 2 favorite front men. Hell I've watched this twice. Glad the Struts just got picked up by the big machine. Now maybe they'll get to where they belong !!!!!!
100%!!! Big Machine never loses haha
This is just too dang awesome!!! Thank you for sharing! I love Jusin and from one Luke to another...I hope and wish the greatest of continued success!
Amazing interview, thank you!
ad lib is short for "Ad libitum", meaning at 'one's pleasure' or 'as you desire'.
This is good, they are both so entertaining!
2 and a half hours of my life that I don’t mind never getting back. So enjoyed this
I used to personally know Jed the bassist from the struts, he used to be in a small pop punk band that my band used to give with a lot and it's so cool seeing him live his dream through the struts
Two of the most talented singers of this era, together. A couple of gentlemen with massive amounts of talent. Pure respect.
Loved Luke's work with Mike Oldfield.
Superb video Justin. 👏👏👏✨
Sorry for posting so much but you guys really should write together. Justin picks up so fast on melodies, that's one of the things that got me hooked on his channel .
Great conversation between two lovely, talented guys. It's fun being a fly on the wall. I appreciate the in-depth discussion on tassels! 😄
Luke is so humble, talented and Extraordinary. DIVINELY BEAUTIFUL. Loving this interview Justin!☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Thanks!
@JustinHawkins I ADORE YOU!☆☆☆☆
luke was my first crush and i wish to marry him
Ad lib = Ad libitum = as you please
This channel should have at least 1 million subscribers!
I saw the Struts when they opened for Guns n Roses in San Francisco.
That was a well spent 2 1/2 hours I must say. Thoroughly enjoyed that convo!
"Homo-erotic bull teasing". There's a phrase I NEVER thought I would hear. LOL
He kinda looks like Freddie Mercury here.
The venue you were talking about with the jacuzzi and sauna backstage upstairs is called “The National”. It’s in Richmond, Virginia. They own an equally awesome venue on the other end of Virginia called “The Norva”. Two of the coolest backstages. “The Bomb Factory” in Dallas has an amazing backstage too. Hot tub, in door basketball court, a gym, all kinds of crazy stuff.
Wow thanks for sharing this 🤗 It's full of 💩 just as we like it! 😆👍
Wow. Over the past 2 decades, both The Darkness and The Struts rekindled my faith that newer generations of hard rock bands still have a place - and a hungry audience.
Luke is Freddy re-incarnated ! I would love to see see you both play together .
hard rock?
Two handsome men talking about catsuits? Yes!
Just saw Luke and The Struts at the Ogden in Denver and I was transported!
Can I say I breathed a sigh of relief when you said that the coastal large cities are not representative of the people of the U.S. Cause they are NOT! Gawd, not even close. If we partied you guys here in the Blue Ridge Mountains, we would feed you good, that's for damn sure! And we would jam with ya. And we aren't pompous arseholes who don't have 3 brain cells to rub together, but think we're smart...nope, we are self-sufficient nice people with manners, black, white and in between, mountain people are lovely and absolutely nothing like the stereotypes that the media brands us with. Well maybe some of it's true.. we do really like trucks and wear bibbed overalls.. 😊 Maroon 5 sucks. You guys rock!! I simply cannot tolerate torturing my ears with most of todays frog-honking that they call music. My cat sings better than most of it. You guys are diamonds in an industry dominated by a sea of turds... We love you! ❤
The 1st you’re energy and voice is Divine. Keep going mate
Luke, quit the cigs. Your voice is brilliant. Great conversation this was though! Saw the Struts in a small venue in my hometown. Luke treated us like it was Wembley Arena. Fantastic performance
Narc
Thank you both so much for this
I like the Struts but I can't consider myself a fan... That being said I think Luke is an amazingly charming and honest bloke. This was a great talk. I appreciate you both and sending my love and best of spirits I can spare (I run low at times. Possibly because I fail to be able to bottle these. Working on it tho. lol). Could listen to you lads ramble for hours. Love love XO Jakob
12:44 - Ad libitum, from Latin for "at one's pleasure" or "as you desire".
This is the MOST British thing I have ever watched!
9 minutes in and we're still talking about outfits! Brilliant!
Great interview!! Awesome conversation that went by really fast!
thank you justin for helping me discover this awesome band!
Best thing I've listened to in ages! Very enjoyable listening! Thank you.
Ad libitum. The Struts are the real-deal! Wonderful interview.
I liked that interview. Luke seams like an awesome guy. I'll start listening to some more of the strut's. If he's ever in Canada on tour I'll keep my eyes out for tickets!
Hey Justin, guess who I saw last night? I discovered this guy's band because of this channel, and naturally had to go see them in concert. They're pretty outstanding. What a frontman. Beautiful smile. So much gratitude. Was sure to thank us for coming, the staff of the venue. Said we had cute accents. Luke makes a concert goer feel so cute and appreciated. What a little gentleman. I had to listen to this again on the way home in the dark. I took the long way so I could listen to most of it. It was fun driving home on the back roads through the tall trees, while you both tell stories about sh*tting your pants. Oddly enough, I wasn't super close to the stage, but close enough to notice his fingernails for some reason. I think he's back on his b.s. with the nail biting, but I WAS a bit far away...I could be mistaken. It's funny he mentioned it (which I don't remember from first listen), because it was an odd thing to take notice of. But great smile, amazing singer, great band. Just love their songs. Sound system was kind of crap though. That would be the only complaint. Thanks for covering them!
This is great.
Ok then i'm off to obsessivly consume The Struts Rock Godliness being so intrigued by this wonderful confabulation here. Brutally real stories of the adventures we have all gone though with a few notable exceptions - shitstops were more horrifying and commonplace than we(as rockers) care to divulge. I love this conversation!! More of this please - if you bother to listen to an old broadcast. All I can say is when The Struts came to VANCOUVER!!!!! November 2023 they basically killed us!! After the concert I could not hear, speak, and every muscle in my body was violated!! They were Amazing!!! Luke is the average sized man and in reality the only man I will date. Justin you are a little tall but you are very cute, talented, smell good.
The only dilemma with writing a song on the toilet, is that it might be shit lol.
Papa Hawk,
I am just rewatching this again. It is epic. You know what I want!! Pleaseeeeee make me the happiest girl ever in the world!
❤️
I feel like I was sitting at the table with these fellas. What a fantastic conversation between 2 of the best in the business.
Luke, you are gorgeous and from planet "Immaculate Sexy" don't let anyone tell you your less! Love you mate!
Who are The Struts?.....God, I'm so old.
These guys sound like brothers
pine woods in ny. i played there with hanson 98. i remember unnecessary details too, but honestly all of the amphitheaters and pacs look the same from the stage
Love Lukes collaboration with Mike Oldfield, so original and fresh, great work Justin.
Kick ass really. Its one of my favorite go toos when I need a pick me up.. Why it hasn't hit the local radios is beyond me. Sailing
Just saying…
If a person eats for any reason other than eating for nutrition that is necessary to live, than it is not good.
So no need to justify any diet lifestyle that is done to maintain weight. We don’t eat to be skinny or fat, we eat for living. Hedonism is never healthy, just because the negative affects are not noticeable, doesn’t mean the damage is not done.
best interview i seen in a long time !!
We need more of this!!! Pls, ask Luke to come to the channel again!
All the best ideas happen on the toilet xD
wow just found this channel. subscribed.
A Toyota Raptor. nice
Strange Days is perfect. Just saying.
LOVE you guys...The Struts!❤
Luke Spiller really earning the name with that story lmao
This was on originally a year ago but it was a good time hanging out with you guys shooting the shit, haha.
Pure Gold. Thanks, guys!
I really enjoy this, from start to end. thank you!
Zero dislikes. As it should be ❤️
I love these guys !!!
It’s so funny seeing British people do American accents 😆
How many times does Luke get told by random people that he looks like Freddie Mercury ?
So your talking about body struggles
Vegans are the best people on the planet. I'm not, I'm a vegetarian that won't buy dairy or eggs...but I'm not checking every label for animal products....i look up to vegans...they are the best and I hate when people can't understand why they are the best
Luke: "I had extremely bad gas..."
Justin: "Apparently is passes."
You guys are the Rock and Roll Abbott and Costello!
Ad Libitum... musical instruction " at one's pleasure OR as you desire". Pleasure = Libido.
I know him from the song Nuclear with Mike Oldfield...amazing song amazing vocal
100% right. It’s not what you wear. It’s the way you wear it. ebay, Oxfam, skip!
Guys, we are all most definitely looking at you both and thinking you’re buff. You can relax ❤
I texted a potential roofer in the middle of the night thinking it was my daughter and talking crazy. Ya, he never came out or got back with me. I'm a night owl.
