902Yeti What a time to be alive, amirite?
No
Gabe Penney bahahahaha
Is this real life?
no
Jesus, Serj is... just.... Serj is just a cool dude. A cool, down to earth kind of guy.
And I love him to death.
Serj is Jesus! He is the key for save the humanity in this chaotic world!
@@juanhale602 this world of DISORDER*
DISORDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.................
"that's ok i like being run over"
Not to death, we still need him.
Serj "Talking voice" Is very different of his "Singing Voice"
It always has been =D
Mister Bork no joke huh
Mister Bork The guy got like 7 different voices
Totally
it's not if you listen carefully
We need more people like serj in this world
Yes! Yes, we do!
My father is one
There already ARE a lot of people like Serj in this world. What's needed is for every single one of them to stop being sheeple, take a stand, support a cause, lend a hand, etc. and stop waiting for someone else to 'do something.'
Infjs basically lol
bears. beets. system of a down.
Lions tigers and serj
fact.
Oh that's funny... MICHAEL!!!!
Beau Ferguson MICHAEL!
bears. beets. byob.
damn, serj please run for president lol
He'd actually be a really good president, although he wasn't actually born in the United States.
Sadly he can't because he wasn't born in America
Lol he was wasn't he in hollywood
MrELECTROMaN H no, he was born in Lebanon and moved to the U.S at a young age
He could be leader of the UN though
"Thats okay I like being run over". lol
I laughed for 3 minutes straight
old comment... but, no matter how many times i hear that, i have to pause to laugh it out
that part cracked me up
Me when i try to act like i didnt get my feelings hurt
What a performance.
I want to hear Serj Tankian do a Christmas album.
E.C. Scharer metal protesting Christmas carols
OK Santa's pogostick
Christmas album sure, but I just want him to read me a bedtime story
“Why do we hate?”
“Because we don’t feel the interconnectivity of all things.. otherwise it would just be ourselves that we are hating”
I think this statement may have changed my life? 🤯
Yes so true
Serj appears as a smart guy, but he is an intellectual giant!
nice thought
I mean dude look at the lyrics he's written throughout his career.

@@danyukhinLOL
Someone should go outside of Serj's house in the morning so that when he asks for guidance, they can yell MAKE A NEW SYSTEM ALBUM.
I'll be that person 😂 I just need his address
Nice
I thought someone was gonna make an Innervision refermce. But NOPE! Lmao
The best comment ever
CZsWorld One of you must have done it because now we’re getting a new album
He is so articulate and educated. I would talk to him for hours if I could.
Serj is such a cool name
And a cool dude
the manga was better though
Thanks!
Serj Danielian can u confirm the meaning of the name Serj? Being Arab, so is Serj Tankian, “Serj” means horse saddle, it may have different meanings depending on its accent and derivative. I’d appreciate knowing the actual meaning of the name :)
@@lilMissF0F0 what is the meaning of “Helmi” in Arab?
caught myself smiling the entire interview
Serj is like the most easygoing nicest guy. He's the kind of guy you want to smoke with and listen to Beck.
I met Daron in person and, although really fuckin scary, he's a pretty nice guy especially if you can catch him high (in which I did not)
"that's okay I like being run over"
beck nice lol
How about Tool, or Mastodon.
@@MasonMapes Tool, Deftones
Serj is a smart and humble being. Cant beat that voice!
serj is a beautiful soul!
He really is
1:38 mark these words. For everyone trying to come up with music. This is exactly how you should do it. And dude that whole idea about choosing where your tax money goes is absolutely amazing. Gives people a better feeling of where their money's going and provides loads of info on our society at the same time.
but how do you write lyrics
@@DinosaurSuccess exactly how he puts it. Just pick up your instrument (or beat) and have fun. Write what comes to mind.
90% of the song I write are inspired off merely the way I'm feeling in that exact moment and not really a defined construct or idea.
Don't go into it like "ya, this song is gunna be about this and is gunna sound like this"
Just do it. Say what ur thinking. Best of luck brotha.
Serj for president!
Teen depression/suicide. We get so much drug and alcohol awareness and sex education, but nobody knows how to deal with a friend who cuts himself.
Definitely, I've had so many suicidal friends that I've wished I could help.
I know I am a few years late, but hope you are all doing better. Struggled with depression for many years, fine now. Adults need to take this seriously.
Such a bittersweet watch in 2023, love this series, and when there was space and time to ponder the BIG questions about humanity in a fun way.
Who knew these 2 were so philosophical! Great interview.
Most people who listen to Serj and his bands are well awae
egveryoene
3:23 i love how serjs smile just gets destroyed
THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY HE'S SUCH A KIND SOUL LIKE OH MY GOD
I freaking love serj
everyone does
Serj is so fantastic. I love his thought on artists not being able to take full credit for their art. its true, it is beyond us.
this guy is so down to earth i love him
Serj is a great, great man. His mindset is what this whole world needs.
Serj is a pretty cool guy he is very humble and cares about the world around him.
So this is what Dwight does in his spare time!
Elijah Vandever he also runs a beet farm
He picks up kids
o_o Serj is just an all around great guy..
Serj Tankian for President of planet Earth 2016!!!!!!
YES!
James M ... and look where we are now
James M trump won
2020
He can't be president since he was born in Lebanon.
I love Serj’s voice so much and I love his ideas. I agree with him about a lot of what he says
imagine your just driving casually and you see serj walking down the street 😂
*I wouldn’t be surprised given that he’s telepathic, homosexual, and can teleport. I suspiciously run into a lot of gay men.*
@@earlaweese I CANT STAND YOU, WHY ARE YOU EVERYWHERE CALLING SERJ GAY
Serj is god, he has such a peaceful mind and he's so chill! Would like to have him as a president, he would just solve the problems easily because of the person he is. Amazing human being!! Love you man
this was fantastic. i love the tax idea. i love serj. and i love rainn. i love this. love.
Serj is lovely.
rainn and serj together? this is freaking awesome!!
Rainn, you have such a genuine and enriching energy. Thank you for making this show and sharing it with us. I feel like my life is better after having watched this.
My god these two. I’m so amazed at how humble Serj is, he’s such an amazing person and soul. I loved this interview. And the whole part when they have are silent and the fact that Serj just goes with whatever is handed to him. Love him
Why the hell would Serj be walking in the the middle of the road anyways?? And why would the interview be in the back of a creepy white guys van? I love it.
Juanita Garza Oh yeah, gotta watch out for those creepy celebrities...especially the white ones!
DON'T TALK ABOUT MY BOY DWIGHT LIKE THAT EVERY AGAIN
Can Serj be our president... ? Like... Now.
He was born in Lebanon, and the president has to be a born citizen
How about now?
obama is not american
Obama was born in Hawaii
Obama is Akhenaten!
"The collective unconscious has an art-wing"... i LOVE it !
how could you not love him
for someone who has an amazing voice when it comes to rock serj is a very nice man
Melvin Gonzalez
I fail to see any connection.
A member of soad?
No, I mean the fact that a person`s voice would have any connection to his `niceness` :)
The most confusing comment of the year right there
I found this episode to be the most profound to me. I relate with every answer he said!
And then fast forward to 2024’s Podcast.
Raising consciousness on the simplest levels. Like getting more people to just sit and be w/ their thoughts. This plants seeds of awareness
“It’s ok I like being run over” I love serj 😭
I'm so happy I came across this interview. Serj is such a down to earth guy.
This is just one fantastic human being. What a mind. Spitting truth. Love him
2:30 He makes a good point here. I would say this same thing applies to pretty much everything. Every breath is a gift that comes from somewhere beyond our control
Serj is my favorite human being thus far.
i died at the intro
Negan 666 lmaooo
"I like being run over"
To be giving to people on a large and small scale as much as we possibly can. From handing someone a popsicle who's walking by, to going across seas to support the hungry and famished. Helping and loving others at all points in our lives.That is my vision and goal in life.
Serj seems like such a kind, genuine guy. What a guy to look up to.
Dear serj, you are my true inspiration! I wish I could somehow talk to you, I am a HUGE fan of all your music past and present and I think you it speaks a really important message (as well as sounding amazing). Your music is a relief from the meaningless crappy music that us teenagers are spammed with, keep singing and keep making change!
how old are you now
I’m having a tough time in my life currently, but I really enjoyed this.
Two of my favorite people talking. This is amazing.
Two of my most favorite entertainers in the whole world...........You guys are the best
Serj is an incredible soul. He is a spiritual being no doubt about that. I need to start meditating again..
This is the first video I've watch on this channel and literally just found out that Rainn has a channel!?? Crazy...I just bought your book, man! Can't wait to watch more videos and check out your book!
this is simply amazing
I was looking up Serj and found this. Ever since I've loved SoulPancake... and that's been 2 days since I started watching but still. IT'S AWESOME! LOVE IT HERE! LOVING THE WEBSITE TOO!
idk if you guys are Naturally bonding or are simply artists who act natural....
but this is very inspirational.
the words, the works the magnitude of reach.
you guys have the gift and the means of reaching people
hearing serj tankian speaking,.. his voice strangely matches that of will ferrell's
Urgasch Kurto He kind of looks like him too, lol.
see?, this is a great “”interview””, one in which there is an actual conversation and not just questions and questions and questions. I remember some other ones where they just asked them a lot of things and they couldn’t even answer with what they wanted. I love this channel
This is the first time I am seeing this and Ialmost had tears in my eyes in two points. First when Serj said that the art comes from beyond us, I felt it so much because I think the same and I knew at that time that Serj's consciousness is on another level. And then he went on to say that we don't feel interconnected, that's why we hate and that we don't need organised religion... man this man has won my heart and soul today because this is exactly how I feel and this is the first time I have ever hear someone other than me saying it. Thanks, Serj, I needed this.
thanks for your comment. I was emotionally moved too, I almost cried for the same reasons as yours, and I was concerned, I thought I was going into some hormonal changes like menopause or unexpected pregnancy or something :D
Jokes besides, I really share many of his thoughts and vision, I really like him as human being, and I am really grateful that he's a known person so he can speaks to many hearts and souls.
Serj, never stop with that activism. people can change the world, not the politicians!!! ✊🏽
Art is the lens with which I see the world most clearly. When I make art I feel like I am solving a math problem in images. When I complete a work I it is like I have an understanding that was alluding me prior to starting the piece. I would be completely crazy if I didn't have this pure and positive meditative tool. I love Serj XD He gets it.
Wow, this was delightful!
I could listen to these guys talk all day.
Exposure to the fundamentals of philosophical thought and the ideas of the subconscious mind and quantum physics.
I love you Serj! You have put out so much music, and every time I hear one of your songs every time it brings me to my knees! "I-E-A-I-A-I-O" always wanted ask; sounds a lot like "buying a halo"?
vowels of the world 'liberalization' I think
Hmm, that may very well be. This song is so coded it's hard to figure out. Actually I really don't think they are saying "buying a halo". That would be an entirely different song, and I love the concept of buying a halo.
Why and how have I never seen this. This is my new favorite RUclips video dude what 😂
Do you know the power you have Rainn? Whoa. YOU are AN INSPIRATION!
Serj is a cool ass dude.
I LOVE YOU SERJ
This makes me so happy
I wish I could write a song with Serj, he is one of the greatest minds of our generation and it would be amazing to go through the writing process with him.
Serj is way more smart than he appears.
he appears stupid to you? not sure why
I never said he appeared to be stupid.
SportsCardMan You said he looked smart but he is even smarter than he appears? I can relate.
LoganskiVids wtf do u mean?? He looks really intelligent..
4.0 student too
The perfect crossover doesn’t exi-
You were absolutely right in saying it's an injustice.
I love it when people not only find pride in where they come from, but aren't scared to let people know that, regardless of the times!
I want everyone to post all their hate in one place on the internet with the only intention to resolve it. Like a negative filter that turns all your bad feelings into good ones.
I dont have words enough :)
a growth in appreciation and awareness for the possibilities and opportunities. Whether it be education, a loving family, technology, an individuals unique features, food, water, even the little things (such as a hot shower or a nice home) that make life a little bit nicer. We all tend to forget the good things in life because we put too much focus around the bad things that may be going on; but a reminder that life is pretty good is all you need. Appreciate the things we take for granted.
Serj is one of the most intelligent musicians ever........I love the way he expresses his thought
A cause I care about, is the disconnect between how Native American culture is represented in media and what is ACTUALLY is and has been. Only certain tribes lived in teepees, wore headdresses, decorated with feathers in certain manners, but movies tend to group it all together as if there is no cultural differentiation between tribes. Redskin is a racist term, used when mass bounties were put on Native Peoples. Sioux is an Ojibwe word (with a French adaptation) meaning "snake in the grass" to describe the Dakota/Lakota peoples. There is no 'honor' in any of that.
***** From Minneapolis here...Midwest represent!
I do not know if you are first nations, and it doesn't matter, you have my vote on this issue. Both Canada and the USA have a very dark history in terms of treating the first nations as second class citizens, in the past and present. The future for the people of the first nations is dependent on the majority of people in our societies today. I see a lot of misinformation and lack of empathy towards the first nations and it saddens me to think some people would have entirely different idea's of the culture and tribes if they would just see the state of the reservations and why our culture needs help from the government that once sought to destroy them.
I do not believe that anyone is aiming to destroy what is left of our culture and population on purpose, but inaction and misinformation could do so if even by accident.
Christopher Cyr You brought up a good point... the PRESENT state of First Nation culture is also unrepresented, and probably even more so than it's pre-colonial state. A couple rez's around me run casinos and make millions, but you don't hear about all the others that don't have that. Families living in roll-off storage containers. But you don't hear about the GOOD stuff either, the musicians and artists trying to make a name for themselves, the styles and jokes. All that's really going on, it's just so 'apart' and unheard of by anyone outside the circle. When people don't know much about Native culture anyway, who knows what they'll believe by merely hearing some rumor?
Nathan Foss most red's don't have much support, and I've found the ones with casino's don't always have a good rez because of it, like all people of all races there can be the greedy ones who are wealthy and the rest that are impoverished. I much agree with you.
Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.
Bears. Beets. B.Y.O.B
I agree with Serj about the importance of justice and freedom for everyone. I would love to see all people, young and old, fighting and standing up for those who are trapped in human trafficking. We need to proclaim freedom for all the millions of women and children who are stuck in this underground mega industry that exploits people for money. Let's all be a voice and use our talents to help in any way that we can!!!
serj is such an incredible human being. serj, if you ever read this, i think you're really awesome
Serj Tankian is a fuckin awesome man
Universal access to the necessities of life. Most of the world's effort is wasted on simply trying to survive.
This is Beautiful.
Just discovered this show. LOVE THIS!!!!
I agree. I use my writing to show my opinions about whales and whaling. I think that by encouraging students to use their talent, a new world is opened up to them. I can't sing like Serj Takian, nor am I very artistic. However, the gift of words and paper can be a method used to have your thoughts and feelings reach the hearts of many.
Woah that tax idea is certainly something to think on. Makes me think of Stranger than fiction when Maggie Gynenhaals character purposefully doesnt pay the amount of her taxes that would go towards military spending etc.
God bless Serj. I love soad I hope he keeps making music
Oh yeaaasss!!!! RAINN WILSON AND SERJ 2 of my favorites
