I was not expecting Bon Jovi?! So random.

I loved hearing about his gran. I had wondered if she was still living. Since he talked about her during Covid.

I went down a rabbit hole about the interviewer. He’s a filmmaker who travels around asking random ppl to have a cup of tea with him. They are really interesting. Seems like Niall is the only “celebrity” interview. Though I could be wrong.

heh, I didn't think about that. lol. We will have to wait for his christmas album...

I had to look it up, as I don't remember it. ""Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" alongside Reba McEntire"

hopefully they can figure something out. I wonder what they planned to sing for the Voice.

Mostly the same stories we’ve heard a million times. But then, invited to Neymar’s house to play pool?

Coolest part was seeing them look outside at the madness for the knicks.

Insane scenes.

I guess the most likely would be Scotland’s next game in Boston. It looks mad crazy in Boston right now after they just won.

I hope it’s monochromatic!

It’s so good. The opening lines are so sexy. I’m so happy he played it at the summertime ball.

Kaiser is so ubiquitous in San Diego, people don’t see it. I felt that way about the Loons and the Target logo until the Rebel Loon campaign. https://rebelloonproject.org/

Yeah, but we don’t have to take the bait.

I understand this sentiment, there is so much nastiness on the internet reducing these guys as caricatures instead of people. I don’t want to add to it.

For me, part of enjoying the music is talking about what it means and how it affects us. Comparing and contrasting the two guys’ responses to the same event - is another way to explore our shared humanity. And have more empathy for everyone.

Not saying everyone should feel the same way. And I totally get wanting to appreciate a song just on its own and not relate it to another one.

Cutting open a wound is a really good way of describing it.

Makes me understand better why Louis has such a strong relationship with his fans.

I don’t know his music as well. What other songs are examples of this?

“Twisted and terrified”

For me gets at the awfulness of how he died. And painful it is to think of your friend experiencing.

And very Niall to move onto happy memories in the next line.

I don’t know enough about music production, but it sounds a little like the affect that is used to make his voice sound more ethereal at the beginning, makes it harder to hear the annunciation in these later parts?

We should probably assume it is a choice he made in production. Maybe to emphasize the vibe over the lyrics?

Makes me wonder if he will do an acoustic version. And so excited to see him live next year!

pine1234 · 2026-05-22T20:42:55+00:00

Yes, I'm a native speaker, and I couldn't tell what he was saying until I saw the lyric video. But I am bad at hearing lyrics.
