My fav comment on the internet 😂
I love Oli Sykes a bit too much
Tell me about it
Ikr
yes please tell us
you're not the only one :)
same my dude
The funny thing is, he thinks he won't be the superhero, but for a lot of us, we wouldn't be here because of him.
Fucking true
I think you mean, "we wouldn't be here if it _weren't_ for him" or _"without_ him". This makes it sound like Oli makes people end themselves, or he kills people lol. But I agree 🩶
"you can't cast a shadow without the sun" i don't know why but i love that saying.
GuitaristChase as he face the sun he cast no shadow :)
I never even realized how pretty Jordan's eyes are
Fuck yes 💜
True
Tbh id go gay for him.
i noticed that ever since i discovered BMTH im like.... O.O woooo..
Or how huge his nose is....
I'm a dick
I can't even begin to explain how much I respect this guy for being so open about his struggle with depression and drug abuse. I myself have experienced similar issues, but on the scale that Oli has had to deal with - mainly based around the fact that he is famous and he has an image to maintain - I genuinely admire his ability to overcome his addiction and his anxiety.
He's inspired the hell out of me in that regard. Seems like all my heros are people who've dealt with the awful things in life, and come out the other side successful.
Fr Him and the music was there for me through every stage of recovery & relapse since for over 10 years now. So wildly grateful for this man and the bad
I love the way oli talks. he always sounds so intelligent
Amaria Boyce cause he is so intalligent
the emo marilyn manson
He seems to be quite intelligent in terms of verbal and intrapersonal intelligence.
Not a common trait of us english northerners
@@spencerandrews6676 don't forget he also told Slater not to wash his dick
I think this is the most I've heard Oliver speak :O
Same lol
He's such a smart kid literally so much awesome stuff he said here that's so true ☺️
Nshankoff1 hes clean and happier. When he wasn't sober he was so quiet and u could just tell he was being eaten alive by his mind. Im so happy he's better and a healthier person.
hes really passionate about this
@@ro-wankenobi2002 However, he is shy by nature.
Ben Patashnik: So, say you'd have been able to meet Chester at that Linkin Park show - what would you have said?
Oli: I have no idea. I've always been pretty shy, so I think I'd have been too starstruck.
(Interview, 2010)
I want Oli to speak at my graduation.
Eric Peek "The world is a shit tip. Your children are fucked."
Yeah, that would be suitable 😂😂
the more interviews you watch the better you understand oli's accent
ozzy on the other hand
He's describing emotional compensation, a natural psych process which is ignored nowadays....
Search "compensation in psychology"
+Awkward Italian Girl That is what makes hearing and watching the evolution of his music so beautiful.
+Artemis Aesthetic Yeah
Aka optimism... not my way of thinking.
Awkward Italian Girl he has such a beautiful soul
New drinking game guys. Every time Oil says 'you know what i mean' take a shot. Good luck!
Lmao that's his catchphrase
or when he stutters
nancyandkatie 101 when you talk to
People without accents they probally
Don't know if everything makes sence lol
thats fucking quality lol
hes not as bad as jim root from slipknot
Oliver Sykes the walking song book
Each sentence he says is a lyrics to a song
I hope someone turns this interview into a song!
Am I the only one who falls in love with Oli's voice
Just me?
Yes?
Maybe?
Okay
u re not alone
Crazy Kayzie I'm obsessed with his voice lol
Crazy Kayzie you and every other teenage girl. smh.
youre not alones guys me too
@AVA4444 Actually everyone with good functioning ears. xD His voice has something soothing yet powerful in it. Plus the accent... Needless to explain that.
what he said about accepting that sadness and negativity being a part of life and coming to terms with yourself is great!. Cause a lot of the time therapists and people around you put the idea that you always need to be happy and sadness is a bad thing. But maybe there is something beautiful about letting the feeling fill you instead of hiding it from yourself. You learn a lot by listening an not judging your emotions just accepting them. Oli makes a really good point there. Thank you x
yobriggity you said something that I've been thinking for such a long time. Be it happy or sad, there is a some bliss to be found in letting emotions swallow you whole. I think it's why I love this music, it's just enveloped in so much passion
Brillant!
With out the bad you'd never have the context to understand good... so good wouldn't even really exist in our conciousness. Whenever there's something in life there's also its opposite & if you can see the potential for it, you can make it happen. But also the greater the thing is the greater the potential for its ability to effect you porportionate to your understanding gained through that context. Meaning the more ugly life can seem, the more beautiful it also can seem because you gained understanding living through that ugliness. Thats why its been said that life is possibly the loneliest thing there is because personal experience is subjective and no two ppl can share it on that personal level.
Okay but holy moley he looked like a model in the thumbnail
Stella Smith that's because he is 😍😍
He looks like a model all the time
I've never heard him talk this much, but he's such an intelligent individual. For people saying they're not BMTH anymore, they are. They have a right to change just like you, I'll support them regardless bc they're so deep and true.
TheEmoNemo And TheKillYourSelfiesXD i think they matured
BMTH for life. 💪
Its good to see artist who are real, thats when they get to be insipirational.
I love it when you find interview gems like this
Thank you very much!
sempiternal is still my favorite album:)
Chris Mabbitt same
I love Suicide Season
Chris Mabbitt same

comment: i love suicide season
They are so inspirational, and so supportive. They help people through stuff, probably not even noticing. I love this band!
They are such inspirational artists
At 8:17 Mat and Lee walk past the window😂❤
Oli's sensible, relatable and vulnerable that makes him a real man! Inspiring!
Since Jordan joined the band everything changed for the better, the sound, the lyrics and Oliver himself. Thanks Jordan ❣️❣️❣️
Oliver sykes, you have seriously changed my life around, since i started doing more than just looking at your music videos and watching these blogs of you my whole opinion of myself has changed , i have learnt you also suffer Adhd, depression i used to get so much shit for it and at school i was told i would never be good for Bring me the horzion that you would be disgusted as me being your fan which is ridiculous we suffer the same thing and they put me down for what you have, i look upto despite what anyone says you may not be a superhero to yourself but Oli i think your more than that, your music is very connecting your emotions shared and just the stroy behind them it all makes sense it shows who you are and I can conncet to it, cant go through a day without watching your music videos, and I hope to meet you In Auckland this year during your gig. :)
Nakita Bunyan hey I used to think I had adhd for a long time so I can understand and emphasize .. But if you look at it as having a gift and having a bit more energy than others it's not a disorder . We just have to find ways to let out all the extra energy . For ex, meditation and exercising has changed my life and I no longer label my self as having a disorder. We are different but that's okay there's nothing wrong with that
Oli sykes is my hero bmth saved me 💕💕💕💕
Lol
Eddie Martinez laughing at what you are
BMTH are a huge comfort,and release,and closure for me.
I agree, they have been my saviour for the last 5-6 years now.
Their music is something out of this fucking world
Weird and awesome isn't it? For me too...
Jordan is the key here, he clearly helped Oli realise what he wanted to do and made the band what it is today. Well done guys, friendships like that are hard to come by. Been with BMTH since Count Your Blessings and love what they're doing now.
the world needs more artists like them. they're such inspirational people.
Wow I love this so much
+Tony Munn Thank you for watching!
I love this
Even though they express their passion through music, they keep it so real. It's inspirational to see a band who can openly talk about this. Props to them!
you can tell that oli and Jordan have a really good relationship and oli really loves him, its honestly so sweet, like they just get each other
Oliver you are a lifesaver that's what you are. You're a blessing to this cursed world.
"What doesn't kill you makes you wish you were dead."
as a massive oasis fan... i would i never thought they drew inspiration for happy song from Oasis. but now that they say it... i guess can see the Oasis track "Fuckin' in The Bushes" maybe being what may have inspired Happy Song
Maybeeeee:)
You're gonna be the one that saves meee
Oil is saying that he aint a superhero yet he has saved so many lives including mine which makes him better than a superhero, actually the whole band are heros
BMTH,and especially Oli,have really helped me through mentally and emotionally. usually I over think the smallest of things and I get paranoid,and I've been able to control that better,and now, whenever I realize I'm over thinking too deeply,I can take a deep breath and a step back,and put whatever I was thinking about,off to the side.
Emotionally,usually I used to bottle it up until I exploded...and then act like it never happened...now,I just don't care who says anything,I let out my emotions the moment I need to let them out. Now I'm more accepting that I sometimes uncontrollable roller coaster,and tidal wave emotions...but I've also been controlling them better and making sure they don't get to the level of self-destructiveness.
I've been more and more accepting of myself....
but you see,I really wouldn't have been able to do this,if it hadn't been for BMTH,and Oli.
Does anyone else love Suicide Season?like primal scream to music
suicide season was the best
Yassss it's the best
metalcore bmth was amazing this new music is ok but i grow up on their first 3 cds so this thats the spirit is not what i enjoy
same +Daniel Perez
yup!! but my fave. is sepitermal
Oliver is like my soul mate. I just went through such a life revelation on my own, hitting rock bottom and realizing what a piece of shit I had been to myself and others. And god damn it hurt to come to terms with it and deal with it. such a hard pill to swallow but I am a stronger, way more emotionally vulnerable and in tuned with who I am. And it's crazy that this album came out at the same time I was dealing with and changing myself on my own. I don't ever look up the actual people in bands, like I don't care what you look like or what your name is, who you're dating in Hollywood, etc - if I like your songs and they speak to me a certain way I listen and that's how I have always been. So today was the first time I ever looked up the people behind my second favorite band and I like all of their music. been a fan for what's coming up to 10 years now and I love every bit of them, the way their sound has evolved just like they have in their lives. it's really.. special. This album really helped me through horrible moments that I was overcoming and I can't wait to hear more from them. whichever way they evolve next, I'll always be a diehard fan of their music and their words. Thank you to all the members, producers, distributors of BMTH.
This hit me hard, good find I loved this interview
This interview brings me so much comfort
1:50 This is so important. Don't expect that things will get better just because you have hit rock bottom. "Coming out the other side"-stories can be a dangerous thing to romanticize. For many people there truly is a point of no return.
lol Jordan is like just there and I feel like he has to interrupt Oli to talk cause like I feel like the interviewer isn't giving my bae enough attention
Yes omg, Jordan has good insight they should let him talk more
kennedyhatesyouall yeah ikr like why bother bringing him along if you aren't going to ask him questions
kennedyhatesyouall People who say "why dors the simger get most attention" oliver is the FRONT MAN of the band. If the others wanted to be centered, then THEY would be the FRONT MAN
I'm so glad this was on my recommended. Great vid
Thanks so much! We're glad it was on your recommended too.
It's true. In order to get better you kind of have to get to a point where you're at your worst, that's what makes you really want to fight. Bring Me's music has always been here for me. All of it. House Of Wolves and Hospital For Souls are the songs that really made me realize that I have a problem and I need to tend to it. I need to stop whining and fix it. I'm forever thankful for what their music has done to me. I love these guys.😂💘☔️
OMG I fall in love with Jordan's eyes and with Oli's voice 😍😍😍
Perfect interview ... loved it so much ! Love that band
Me: *2019 looking throught oli Sykes interviews* I miss this Oli, when he had hair
It's cool I stumble upon this interview. Very clean, good camera, good sound and I also appreciated be able to see them talk about stuff in a calm environment. Thank you for the vid 😊
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the great video dude
Thank YOU for watching!
literally the first sentence he said inspired me!♡
Oliver sykes is one of my heros
"your heros wear capes and have superpowers, but my heros are covered in tattoos and sing"
You say you dont, but you help us survive.
When you think you understand an accent and then you hear Oli
Am I the only one who saw the rest of the band outside at some point?😂
Awesome interview :)
First : Jordan's eyes omg!!! Second : let's count how many times Oli says "you know what I mean" xD
I love BMTH, and of course Oli! I'm from VA and have no problem understanding him, I actually love it! I could listen to him all day!

I miss your old stuff that I grew up on and helped me through so much please do one more Deathcore/Hardcore song or album for the fans that really miss your old stuff I respect your music change even though I'm not a fan of the sound personally but I respect it but I really love your old stuff your old vocals were the reason I started singing and screaming and became a vocalist years ago
It seems like Screamo Singers like Oliver are very Chill.
Oli's Face
i’m watching in 2020 and i love bmth and oli but the amount of times oli says “ you know wot i ‘mean” even watching this years layer is insane.
"tell Slater not to wash his dick" who's Slater? Why no wash the PP????

I wonder when oli is gonna do the screaming again! It was sooo good!
Jason Lecter it will be awhile he got laryngitis
