I loved her interview and the fact the host didn't make all about love affairs or sensitive womanhood. He actually made deep questions on her creative process.
this is actually a really good interview. i am impressed because usually in this kind of talk shows musicians are not really allowed to articulate what they really mean. and he really seems like knowing about the music, unlike Fallon or letterman, who just say great, great and that's all.
So agree! A lot of thoughtfulness on both sides of this interview. And a lotta listening on the host’s side (as opposed to just throwing in jokes non-stop). Reminds me of when Dick Cavett would interview great musicians.
it makes me so mad that people don't get that she is in control. she's a stunning lyricist, singer, composer, etc. and it's cringe that anyone thinks she's not already the cowboy.
@@danitiwa true, but I'm speaking mostly about how people perceive her as a sad, depressed, lovelorn, struggling person, when that's actually the image she's constructed. she's the boss, she's the director of the show that is 'mitski'. obviously she's a flawed person and no one besides those intimate with her really knows who she is, but she is masterful.

And speaks as if she’s literally the 1st person on earth who’s ever recognized that there’s an American cowboy ethos/style. Oooooooooh that some deep shit. LMFAO she needs to get over herself.
@@LindsayWare-vb5py i feel like you need to chill and open your mind. I always feel like this kind of disdain comes from a fear of being "cringey" or , like you said, "pretentious", but once you get over that theres so many interesting things out there.
I love the way Mistki described being seen as a vessel for music instead of getting the credit of being the creator. She's a genius damn it. She deserves ALL the credit.
I’m not even rly mixed race but my parents are from polar opposite cultures and i grew up internationally so i feel that on a molecular lvl as well. No matter where you go you are weird or exoticized
im not mixed but i grew up very whitewashed because kazakhstan is a post soviet country where internaalized racism is considered a norm when i visit my relatives i cant fit in with them even though i really want to
@@MrWalker1000 woc who feel they have to apologize for existing in white male dominated spaces because they are met with harassment doesn't come from a book, just experience and looking around ones self.
I can't stop smiling that this interview exists, I listen to Mitski every day (that's not a joke, I literally have listened to her every day for the past three years) and just adore her music, I love that she's getting more recognition. If you haven't listened to her music, pleasse do.
@@shafiat5603 I'd say Puberty 2 or bury me at makeout creek (these are probs my fave albums from her, but tbh all her albums have songs i cant live withput, so none of the albums are not worth a listen), I love my body's made of crushed little stars, a burning hill, and a loving feeling off of puberty 2. My fave songs from makeout creek are Last words of a shooting star, I don't smoke (god the emotion in that song gets me everytime), and first love/ late spring. Her early albums are great too off of lush I love bag of bones, liquid smooth, and brand new city, it amazing to see the change in her music style when you compare lush to be the cowboy, I love the loudness and rawness of this album. Off of Retired from sadness, I recommend goodbye, my danish girl, strawberry blonde, and Humpty, this album is probably her saddest, it's a great album for when ur 19 and have no clue what ur doing with ur life.
she is so profoundly articulate; i love how effortlessly she conveys thoughts and ideas that are often easier left unsaid but in such a graceful way. she is such an interesting person and i adore her. also gotta hand it to trevor because he is a fantastic interviewer, you could really tell that he cared about curating questions that were actually pertinent to her and let her speak authentically
Kiki-san lol right?! like tell me more about that cowboy myth/Marlboro Man mystique cuz no one has ever even realized that was a thing. GTFO with all the comments about how “enlightened” and “spiritual” she is. Maybe if you’re in high school. Like wtf why did this even happen.
@@LindsayWare-vb5py mitski never said she was the first person to use this to express herself creatively- ppl are asking HER to explain why she chose to. You're mad at her for what?
Mitski inspires me to be the cowboy of my life, not apologizing for existing and being who i am, she really does dig out her lyrics from her soul, it’s beautiful 💕
So it's entirely normal and expected? That is, this is a universal trait as there is no place at any time in history where minorities are the most favored.
John Anderson Stop complaining, whites died by the millions in all the wars. They worked to their death in factories and mines. Don’t come to me with, withes never had it hard....
Asians are discriminated against look at all those small penis jokes. Asians are so discriminated against not in a blatant way but in hidden ways. So ya she is a victim.
I always clap back at those who try to fictionalize my reality. Some do it out of naivety and are easily forgiven. However, I have no such patience with those who spray rose water over dung. It still stinks.
Elegast wow, you whites died in wars you whites started or intervened in and then later claimed it had nothing to do with greed. Save your pity party for your country clubs, “cowboy”!
the way she manages to put such complicated concepts into words... it shouldn't be surprising considering she writes for a living but shes just so fantastically articulate and witty! i hold her so close to my heart
I liked this interview. Fallon, letterman and others usually don't give this level of nuance and respect unless you're quite popular. Good going mitski! Please get more popular and show everyone how lyrics are Really written. I love her because she's just raw talent and no pretence.
Alexander K not really, Bjork has always been more charismatic and bubbly. Mitski is great though, so articulate and well spoken. Both very classy ladies and forerunners of the alternative genre
i’m very different from mitski i’m a white woman who has lived in the midwest her whole life but i find her extremely relatable in the sense of feeling like an outsider, not feeling the freedom to exist as you are, being lonely i know we’ll never experience these things in the same way but she still reads my mind with her music
oh my god i love her so much especially her explanations of being the cowboy and her experiences with loneliness. thank you for digging deep and sharing your soul with us.mitski!
I love how his questions were so thoughtful and tailored to her & her music and how genuine her answers were-as interesting and intelligent as her songs suggest
I love how his questions were so thoughtful and particular to her and her music and how genuine her answers were-just as interesting and intelligent as her songs suggest
I'm so happy to see her growing! Also, the "be the cowboy" thing is so true... Only recently I came to realize how a white, mildly successful man, feeling so fucking confident, being able to walk down a street and having absolutely zero fucks to give and I'm like... Wow, if I had half of that confidence.
expecting to be welcomed after wrecking shit is a good summary of america's international relations. what she said about her critics writing about her as if she doesn't know what she's doing really struck me, they can't fathom an asian woman having agency. mitski is an amazing composer and lyricist and many would rather write her off as hysterical woman
Interesting thing though, One of the most iconic "Cowboy" Movies, the Magnificent Seven, is based on a Japanese Movie (The Seven Samurai by Akira Kurosawa)
a lot of Star Wars drew on those very same connections between eastern action films and western, well, "westerns"! i've noticed a lot of commentary here where people have confused the mythos of the cowboy with the portrayal of samurai in fiction and your comment doesn't do that. :) Darth Vader is more akin to a historical samurai in his servitude to Sidious (villainous that it is) than the image many have of samurai. the mythos of the samurai is of a very different sort in eastern imagination - which is more akin with Darth Vader - than that of the western image of stoic action stars. there is a resemblance, certainly, but the emotional backgrounds are very different - something that is only really felt in all those shades of nuance when one is a recent(ish) immigrant of mixed heritage who has had experience of each version of those mythologies.
I love Mitski so much! I saw her in concert last weekend, and she was so genuine and seemed like a real person. I know that's odd, but I often seem to forget that celebrities are actual people too. I go to a lot of concerts and Mitski was so human.
Great interview. Mitski is brilliant. I love her answers to everything and how she is so unapologetically herself through her music and who she is. Respect 🙌🏻
She isnt wrong. I am a mixed lady. My father is a 6foot white man who embodies all the freedoms described here. He is also a cowboy who sells and ships livestock. Truly the last of his kind. I grew up wanting to be just like him, confident and strong...and he would teach me the white man way. I learned that education/ english-is my only weapon against rascist. My capacity for self defense is a result of using the same tactics of the cowboy..the key is to think like a white man. Than you can be two steps ahead of their evil.
Thank-you, her comment of being structurally alone resonates more with me after your comment. I know that feeling of seeing their evil and working against it. It is a lonelier existence than embracing the evil.
Calling an entire group of people evil is... evil lol. Most problematic white people come from a lack of understanding or empathy and the way people think to help them change is to call them evil or berate them? Sounds legit
This interview came out before Jia Tolentino’s “The Misreading of Mitski” profile for the New Yorker…that blew my mind. That article is basically a summary of Mitski’s own amazingly perceptive analysis of her own media coverage
I really have such much more appreciation for Trevor Noah and his work on The Daily Show. I really haven't heard much about Asian American and Amerasian musical and literary artists until I encountered Mitski and Michelle Zauner of Japanese Breakfast and the Book Crying in H Mart on his show. He really covers a broad spectrum.
individualism breeds a kick down/suck up mentality ... no need to go from "invisible serve only others" to "bull in china shop" . She's got great analysis re her work!
"The idea of a man riding into town, wrecking shit, and then walking out like he's the hero is just so..." *American.*
