1
00:02:05,358 --> 00:02:08,226
We're rolling.
Rolling, Richie.
2
00:02:08,294 --> 00:02:09,694
Rolling, Danny.
3
00:02:13,099 --> 00:02:16,069
Did we not
just pull off a high school play
at Madison Square Garden?
4
00:02:16,136 --> 00:02:17,798
It was awesome.
5
00:02:17,871 --> 00:02:19,396
Dude.
6
00:02:34,053 --> 00:02:36,045
That was the last show.
7
00:03:14,327 --> 00:03:16,489
You have 15 messages.
8
00:03:16,563 --> 00:03:19,123
James, it's Keith.
Well, you knew that, didn't you?
9
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:22,567
Um... So, uh, I guess you're sleeping.
10
00:03:22,635 --> 00:03:25,969
Well, I hope to fuck you're sleeping
after last night, man, that...
11
00:03:38,051 --> 00:03:40,043
Do I have to get up?
12
00:03:49,195 --> 00:03:51,130
Do you wanna go out?
13
00:04:06,713 --> 00:04:08,579
My guest tonight...
14
00:04:08,648 --> 00:04:12,415
is the leader of the band
LCD Soundsystem.
15
00:04:12,485 --> 00:04:13,851
Please welcome James Murphy!
16
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,254
Whoo!
17
00:04:17,323 --> 00:04:20,452
Whoo! Boom!
18
00:04:20,526 --> 00:04:23,826
Hey, Mr. Murphy.
Thanks so much for coming on.
19
00:04:27,433 --> 00:04:29,095
Seriously?
20
00:04:34,274 --> 00:04:38,143
I got a beef to pick with you here.
Can I get up front at the top?
You ready for this?
21
00:04:38,211 --> 00:04:42,046
- Yes.
- Okay, you are a pretty
successful rocker.
22
00:04:42,115 --> 00:04:45,017
Moderately successful.
Moderately successful rocker.
Still.
23
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:49,318
You're walking away
from fame.
24
00:04:53,259 --> 00:04:56,093
This is your last appearance
on television, correct?
Yes.
25
00:04:56,162 --> 00:04:57,824
As LCD Soundsystem.
Yes.
26
00:04:57,897 --> 00:05:00,128
Okay.
27
00:05:00,199 --> 00:05:02,759
No, that's all right.
I'll have another show tomorrow.
It's all right.
28
00:05:02,835 --> 00:05:06,829
And your last show is coming up
at Madison Square Garden.
29
00:05:06,906 --> 00:05:11,640
Yes.
Why walk away
from the rock world?
30
00:05:11,711 --> 00:05:14,340
You didn't start until you
were in your 30s, right?
31
00:05:14,414 --> 00:05:16,940
But you've never been,
like, "youth rocker."
32
00:05:17,016 --> 00:05:19,110
You've always been kind of
doing your own thing.
33
00:05:19,185 --> 00:05:21,051
I mean, you're popular, man!
34
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,351
Because it started later,
I had a life beforehand...
35
00:05:23,423 --> 00:05:25,221
and there's a lot of things
I want to do.
36
00:05:25,291 --> 00:05:27,954
Like what What do you
want to do afterwards?
37
00:05:28,027 --> 00:05:30,929
I really like...
I like making coffee.
38
00:05:39,806 --> 00:05:42,298
There are only three ways
to end your career as a rocker...
39
00:05:42,375 --> 00:05:44,276
overdose,
40
00:05:44,344 --> 00:05:46,370
overstay your welcome...
41
00:05:46,446 --> 00:05:49,109
or write Spider-Man: The Musical.
42
00:05:49,182 --> 00:05:52,346
I didn't think rockers
get to walk away like that.
43
00:06:09,502 --> 00:06:11,266
Jesus-fuckin'-Christ.
44
00:06:19,946 --> 00:06:22,438
We're just doing this
for sound check, so...
45
00:06:29,155 --> 00:06:31,090
Sounds really good.
46
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,328
Maybe we play without?
47
00:06:50,009 --> 00:06:52,501
How you doing, Nancy?
I'm okay. How are you?
48
00:06:54,847 --> 00:06:56,509
Good.
Good.
49
00:06:58,184 --> 00:07:00,813
- When's doors?
- I don't know. 7:00.
50
00:07:02,288 --> 00:07:04,189
It's not gonna be possible.
51
00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:06,488
We want some of this time back.
52
00:07:06,559 --> 00:07:11,224
Yeah, I know.
And I feel like
we were told something,
53
00:07:11,297 --> 00:07:13,198
and we were not allowed
to make it go faster,
54
00:07:13,266 --> 00:07:15,292
so they gotta take responsibility.
55
00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:19,772
I think we can push it till,
I think, like, 6:30 or something.
56
00:07:19,839 --> 00:07:22,502
It's kind of a bit close to doors.
It's just, like, gettin' it goin'.
57
00:07:22,575 --> 00:07:24,567
You know, I...
All right.
58
00:07:31,250 --> 00:07:33,651
Christina?
59
00:07:33,719 --> 00:07:35,347
Nancy, did you get a bracelet?
No.
60
00:07:35,421 --> 00:07:36,912
Do you want one?
Of course.
61
00:07:36,989 --> 00:07:38,218
Do you want one now?
Do I?
62
00:07:38,291 --> 00:07:39,589
Yeah.
Are you wearing one now?
63
00:07:39,659 --> 00:07:41,491
Yeah.
This is all right, you know.
64
00:07:41,561 --> 00:07:43,928
This is our time.
65
00:07:46,899 --> 00:07:49,130
... a couple of things clear
66
00:07:49,202 --> 00:07:52,570
If you're afraid
of what you need
67
00:07:52,638 --> 00:07:56,473
If you're afraid of what you need
68
00:07:56,542 --> 00:08:00,809
I'm afraid my children are gonna
think... because this is the first time they've
seen me doing anything musical,
69
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:05,511
'cause they're so young...
that they're gonna think
that now when I go away,
70
00:08:05,585 --> 00:08:08,077
what I do is
I come to a place like this.
71
00:08:08,154 --> 00:08:11,613
I get painted white
and I go up in a fucking, like...
72
00:08:11,691 --> 00:08:13,387
talking to a guy in a spaceship.
73
00:08:13,459 --> 00:08:15,428
There's gonna be
a lot of people here.
74
00:08:15,495 --> 00:08:18,659
I think there's going to be,
like, 18,000 people here.
75
00:08:27,707 --> 00:08:29,437
Hello.
Hey.
76
00:08:29,509 --> 00:08:31,444
Hi.
77
00:08:31,511 --> 00:08:33,309
I'm not late, am I?
No.
78
00:08:33,379 --> 00:08:35,439
I got lost coming here.
Welcome to weird.
79
00:08:35,515 --> 00:08:38,383
Ah. You've got a tie on today,
I see.
80
00:08:38,451 --> 00:08:40,818
I'm wearing...
I didn't anticipate that.
81
00:08:40,887 --> 00:08:43,118
I'm making an attempt to, uh...
82
00:08:43,189 --> 00:08:47,126
Is that okay?
Yes. Making an attempt
to dress better in my retirement.
83
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:49,355
In your...
84
00:08:49,428 --> 00:08:52,660
Uh, is it okay
if I tape-record this?
85
00:08:52,732 --> 00:08:54,223
Yes.
Okay.
86
00:08:56,002 --> 00:08:58,494
Huh. Well...
87
00:08:58,571 --> 00:09:00,369
Uh...
Is it okay if I take notes?
88
00:09:00,439 --> 00:09:02,431
You're taking notes as well?
I'm kidding. No, I'm kidding.
89
00:09:02,508 --> 00:09:07,446
Well, you can if you want.
Working on my...
on my stuff.
90
00:09:07,513 --> 00:09:10,813
Well, tell me this then...
This might be a good way to start.
91
00:09:10,883 --> 00:09:12,875
This is the end
of LCD Soundsystem.
Yes.
92
00:09:12,952 --> 00:09:16,548
And it's ending in
a strangely controlled manner.
93
00:09:16,622 --> 00:09:19,490
It's, like, there was a record.
There was an announcement.
94
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,393
There's a last show.
Everyone's aware that it's ending.
95
00:09:22,461 --> 00:09:25,920
When you start a band,
do you imagine how it will end?
96
00:09:34,607 --> 00:09:36,667
I didn't start a band.
97
00:09:36,742 --> 00:09:38,734
I made a record,
and then we had...
98
00:09:38,811 --> 00:09:41,371
People were asking us to play,
and it seemed like a cool opportunity...
99
00:09:41,447 --> 00:09:43,973
to go to London
and play this cool gig.
100
00:09:44,050 --> 00:09:46,781
I mean, we'd always call ourselves
the LCD Soundsystem cover band.
101
00:09:46,852 --> 00:09:49,845
We were the best LCD Soundsystem
cover band in the world.
102
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:52,323
Because we were doing essentially
what a cover band does.
103
00:09:52,391 --> 00:09:54,519
There was a record made
and then we would listen to it.
104
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:57,530
In fact, I was very adamant about,
I will never tour,
105
00:09:57,597 --> 00:10:00,658
will never do the bullshit,
like, you know, go away
for a really long time...
106
00:10:00,733 --> 00:10:02,861
and tour and all the stuff
that everybody else does.
107
00:10:02,935 --> 00:10:04,597
'Cause I didn't want to.
It seemed stupid.
108
00:10:04,670 --> 00:10:07,663
So there was no conception of, like,
"We're starting a band. Will it end?"
109
00:10:07,740 --> 00:10:10,710
And at that time, you're playing to
how many people in most shows
110
00:10:10,776 --> 00:10:13,211
I mean, our first show
was a couple thousand people.
111
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,145
Like, who... I mean...
Was it here?
112
00:10:15,214 --> 00:10:16,705
That was in London.
113
00:10:16,782 --> 00:10:19,308
We started by playing parties.
We didn't want to play shows.
114
00:10:19,385 --> 00:10:22,844
We'd all been in...
Pat and I and Tyler,
we'd been in punk bands...
115
00:10:22,922 --> 00:10:26,222
and didn't want to go
fuckin' play shows.
116
00:10:26,292 --> 00:10:29,456
We wanted to play at dance clubs.
We wanted to play to people
who were having fun.
117
00:10:29,528 --> 00:10:32,965
We didn't want to do anything
to do with, like, the whole, like,
118
00:10:33,032 --> 00:10:35,695
you know, standing-around bit.
119
00:10:37,737 --> 00:10:40,605
- Hey!
- We gotta rehearse. Quick hug.
120
00:10:40,673 --> 00:10:42,403
How's it going?
You gonna rehearse?
121
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:47,311
Yeah, we got to rehearse.
We're doing a show in between
when we go on and now.
122
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:50,583
Hi.
Did you guys just get here?
123
00:10:50,650 --> 00:10:52,346
We just got here, yeah.
Awesome.
124
00:10:52,418 --> 00:10:55,684
We just ate dinner down the street
while everyone in their white suits
was walking by.
125
00:10:55,755 --> 00:10:58,247
It was pretty awesome.
Yeah, this is what
I'm talking about.
126
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:00,259
Jeremy showed me his.
127
00:11:00,326 --> 00:11:03,160
You look so dashing, Keith Wood.
128
00:11:03,229 --> 00:11:04,925
But no tie though, Keith?
129
00:11:04,997 --> 00:11:08,365
No, because
I haven't had time to go
and fucking buy one, have I?
130
00:11:08,434 --> 00:11:12,997
I wanted a black and white tie
or even a bow tie, right?
131
00:11:13,072 --> 00:11:15,234
But I haven't had
a fucking minute.
132
00:11:15,307 --> 00:11:16,935
And then, check it out.
133
00:11:19,612 --> 00:11:23,674
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake,
rattlesnake, rattlesnake, rattlesnake
134
00:11:23,749 --> 00:11:25,809
I'll see you guys later.
How much time do we have?
135
00:11:25,885 --> 00:11:28,377
Not very much.
About five minutes.
Five minutes.
136
00:11:28,454 --> 00:11:30,355
Ow.
Let's try and enjoy this.
137
00:11:42,268 --> 00:11:43,896
Are you guys good?
138
00:11:43,969 --> 00:11:46,029
- Do we have everybody?
- Yeah.
139
00:11:46,105 --> 00:11:48,904
We were just saying that, right?
140
00:11:48,974 --> 00:11:51,910
Has anyone looked round?
We have everybody?
All right, let's go.
141
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:14,997
Don't you want me to wake up
142
00:12:16,235 --> 00:12:20,070
So give me
just a bit of your time
143
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,733
Arguments are made
from make-outs
144
00:12:25,745 --> 00:12:29,580
Then give me just
a bit of your time
145
00:12:29,648 --> 00:12:33,483
You've got to
bring the results in
146
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,316
You're gonna play it
till the time comes
147
00:12:39,492 --> 00:12:43,122
Forget your string of divorces
148
00:12:44,296 --> 00:12:47,789
?Just go and throw
your little hands up
149
00:12:48,968 --> 00:12:50,630
It's like
150
00:12:54,774 --> 00:12:57,141
No
151
00:12:58,544 --> 00:13:00,103
Honey, it's me
152
00:13:04,116 --> 00:13:06,142
No
153
00:13:09,388 --> 00:13:12,517
I miss the way the night goes
154
00:13:13,726 --> 00:13:18,528
With friends who always
make it feel good
155
00:13:18,597 --> 00:13:22,398
This basement has a cold glow
156
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:27,338
Though it's better
than a bunch of others
157
00:13:27,406 --> 00:13:30,399
So go and dance yourself clean
158
00:13:31,811 --> 00:13:35,805
Hey, go and dance yourself clean, yeah
159
00:13:37,216 --> 00:13:41,176
You're throwing marks
into pieces
160
00:13:42,021 --> 00:13:46,584
You're winning arguments
to pieces
161
00:13:46,659 --> 00:13:48,389
Oh
162
00:13:51,430 --> 00:13:52,921
It's your show
163
00:13:56,468 --> 00:13:58,630
It's your show
164
00:14:01,006 --> 00:14:02,838
It's your show
165
00:14:05,845 --> 00:14:15,844
It's your show
166
00:14:16,255 --> 00:14:26,254
Put your little feet down
167
00:14:32,838 --> 00:14:36,900
Hey, oh-ho
168
00:14:54,660 --> 00:14:57,152
We should try a little harder
169
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:02,899
In this tedious march of the few
170
00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:08,601
Every fucker's getting younger
171
00:15:08,674 --> 00:15:12,736
And there's a part of me
hoping it's true
172
00:15:33,032 --> 00:15:35,592
Thanks very much.
173
00:15:39,538 --> 00:15:44,101
So, this is... this is
a very weird experience for us.
174
00:15:44,176 --> 00:15:47,340
Uh, in keeping with
the history of our band,
175
00:15:47,413 --> 00:15:52,909
we're hoping it will be a relatively
weird experience for everybody.
176
00:15:55,387 --> 00:15:57,822
Uh...
177
00:15:57,890 --> 00:15:59,791
We do... We...
178
00:15:59,858 --> 00:16:02,623
It feels weird 'cause
we were gonna play this one...
179
00:16:02,695 --> 00:16:07,395
We played four shows last week,
and they were really good for us
and fun and important,
180
00:16:07,466 --> 00:16:09,526
so...
181
00:16:09,601 --> 00:16:13,538
And it's sort of like we just have
this one big last party,
182
00:16:13,605 --> 00:16:15,301
and it's just gonna keep going.
183
00:16:21,613 --> 00:16:24,981
This is kind of a pretentious question,
but I think I'd be interested in your response.
184
00:16:25,050 --> 00:16:26,951
When does art begin?
185
00:16:27,019 --> 00:16:30,353
Okay, this is a constructed interview.
All interviews are construction.
Right.
186
00:16:30,422 --> 00:16:32,914
You can say that all conversation
is a construction.
Yeah, that's okay.
187
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:35,223
So at what point does something
start becoming art?
188
00:16:35,294 --> 00:16:39,061
When do you feel like you are making art
and not just making something?
189
00:16:39,131 --> 00:16:42,101
Um...
That is a pretentious question.
190
00:16:42,167 --> 00:16:44,762
No, but it's like...
191
00:16:44,837 --> 00:16:48,501
I know you're a fan of pretension,
so I thought I could ask
pretentious questions...
192
00:16:48,574 --> 00:16:51,339
No, totally.
Because you like
pretentious ideas, right?
193
00:16:51,410 --> 00:16:56,144
Pretension is, like,
a way to not just play football.
194
00:16:56,215 --> 00:16:59,276
Like if I think about myself as a kid,
I was kind of a pretentious kid.
195
00:16:59,351 --> 00:17:02,810
I read so much shit
just because I wanted to seem cool.
196
00:17:02,888 --> 00:17:05,881
So I would read all these books,
and as I got older, I'd be like...
197
00:17:05,958 --> 00:17:08,450
"These books were great,"
and they actually informed
my world view...
198
00:17:08,527 --> 00:17:12,396
and, you know, like,
became part of my personality
in a totally different way...
199
00:17:12,464 --> 00:17:14,262
once I got older
and was not so, like,
200
00:17:14,333 --> 00:17:17,394
panicking about image maintenance
and all that sort of stuff.
201
00:17:17,469 --> 00:17:20,871
So, like, if being pretentious
got you to read Gravity's Rainbow,
202
00:17:20,939 --> 00:17:23,534
you still read Gravity's Rainbow,
203
00:17:23,609 --> 00:17:27,137
and as, like, an older dude,
that's part of your makeup.
204
00:17:27,212 --> 00:17:31,081
When you're reading Gravity's Rainbow
as a 16-year-old to seem cool,
205
00:17:31,150 --> 00:17:33,210
who are you attempting
to seem cool for?
206
00:17:33,285 --> 00:17:37,985
Who, in your mind,
is the audience for you as a person...
Right.
207
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:41,050
that would be impressed
or somehow changed...
208
00:17:41,126 --> 00:17:44,893
or would appreciate the fact that you
were reading this difficult book?
209
00:17:44,963 --> 00:17:46,989
Was that even something
you're conscious of?
210
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:49,626
I don't think you're conscious
that you're trying to impress anybody.
211
00:17:49,701 --> 00:17:53,297
You know the guy who...
212
00:17:53,372 --> 00:17:55,739
dressed like
he was in The Clash...
213
00:17:55,808 --> 00:17:58,334
in, like, Louisville...
214
00:17:58,410 --> 00:18:00,641
You know what I mean?
The guy who says, like,
215
00:18:00,712 --> 00:18:03,443
"Everyone here is an idiot.
I gotta get out of here
where it's real."
216
00:18:03,515 --> 00:18:05,484
So you were that person?
You hated where you were at?
217
00:18:05,551 --> 00:18:07,577
I hated where I was.
I wanted to just bomb it.
218
00:18:07,653 --> 00:18:12,648
I was, like,
"Man, if I lived in London, I could
go see these bands all the time."
219
00:18:12,724 --> 00:18:16,525
Or, "If I lived in New York,
I could meet Andy Warhol."
220
00:18:16,595 --> 00:18:20,259
But here it's, like, you know,
kids calling kids faggots
and stuff like that.
221
00:18:20,332 --> 00:18:22,164
You just feel like you live in hell.
222
00:18:22,234 --> 00:18:26,228
I guess a lot of kids feel that way,
but you were actually projecting
a life in London for yourself...
223
00:18:26,305 --> 00:18:29,298
and you thought...
you were constructing in your mind
what that would be like,
224
00:18:29,374 --> 00:18:31,866
and it seemed completely alien
from the life you were having.
Yes.
225
00:18:31,944 --> 00:18:34,709
It's just like when you think about
rock stars and you'd think about,
like, David Bowie.
226
00:18:34,780 --> 00:18:36,715
You'd be like,
"He's from fuckin' Mars."
227
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:39,411
In my mind,
he was from outer space.
228
00:18:39,485 --> 00:18:41,249
Like he's not a person.
229
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,256
This isn't a person that would, like,
wake up and whose foot would hurt...
230
00:18:44,323 --> 00:18:46,292
because they kicked a couch
the night before.
231
00:18:46,358 --> 00:18:49,817
What I liked about these guys,
and thought they were
just unattainable...
232
00:18:49,895 --> 00:18:52,364
and that the best you could get
was just to act like them.
233
00:18:52,431 --> 00:18:54,662
And you'd never be like them.
It was impossible.
234
00:18:54,733 --> 00:18:58,226
But you could, like, if you liked Lou Reed,
you could wear sunglasses
and a leather jacket...
235
00:18:58,303 --> 00:18:59,931
and not talk much.
236
00:19:00,005 --> 00:19:02,372
But, like, you couldn't be that.
237
00:19:23,028 --> 00:19:26,465
It's like a movement
from a small place to a bigger city?
238
00:19:27,766 --> 00:19:31,362
Or it's a bigger bag
to strap the ego of a tiny baby?
239
00:19:32,437 --> 00:19:34,497
It's like a discipline
without the discipline
240
00:19:34,573 --> 00:19:37,042
Of all of the discipline
241
00:19:37,109 --> 00:19:41,240
It's like a movement
without the bother of all of the meaning
242
00:19:41,313 --> 00:19:43,839
But you're history,
and I'm tapped
243
00:19:43,916 --> 00:19:46,181
Yes, sir, I'm tapped
244
00:19:46,251 --> 00:19:48,516
You're pillaging,
and I'm tapped
245
00:19:48,587 --> 00:19:50,351
You're so chic, I'm tapped
246
00:19:51,690 --> 00:19:54,717
It's like a rock show without the rock
and all of you show up
247
00:19:55,861 --> 00:20:00,231
Or it's a cum shot without the cum
and all the inevitable throw up
248
00:20:00,299 --> 00:20:04,327
It's like a fat guy in a tuxedo
doing all the singing
249
00:20:05,437 --> 00:20:08,430
Or it's a couple of dads
and a few friends trying hard to...?
250
00:20:09,274 --> 00:20:12,301
Stay in, and you know,
you're history, and I'm tapped
251
00:20:12,377 --> 00:20:14,437
You're history, and I'm tapped
252
00:20:14,513 --> 00:20:16,448
You're history, and I'm tapped
253
00:20:16,515 --> 00:20:18,984
You're pillaging, and I'm tapped
254
00:20:19,051 --> 00:20:23,716
Here come the rich now
and the rich start singin'
'bout how poor they is
255
00:20:23,789 --> 00:20:26,020
It's like a disciple
without the discipline
256
00:20:26,091 --> 00:20:28,458
Of all the discipline
257
00:20:28,527 --> 00:20:32,931
It's like a fat guy in a tuxedo
doing all the singing
258
00:20:32,998 --> 00:20:35,797
It's like a couple of dads
and a few friends
259
00:20:35,867 --> 00:20:37,460
Trying hard to stay in
260
00:20:37,536 --> 00:20:39,232
You're history, and I'm tapped
261
00:20:39,905 --> 00:20:41,931
You're history, and I'm tapped
262
00:20:42,007 --> 00:20:44,101
You're history, and I'm tapped
263
00:20:44,176 --> 00:20:47,203
You're so chic, and I'm tapped
264
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:51,478
It's like a rock show without the rock
and all of the show
265
00:20:51,550 --> 00:20:53,610
It's like a discipline
without the discipline
266
00:20:53,685 --> 00:20:55,677
Doin' all the discipline
267
00:20:55,754 --> 00:20:59,850
It's like a culture
without the culture of all the culture
268
00:21:04,529 --> 00:21:06,964
You're history, and I'm tapped
269
00:21:07,032 --> 00:21:08,864
You're history, and I'm tapped
270
00:21:09,735 --> 00:21:12,034
You're history, and I'm tapped
271
00:21:12,104 --> 00:21:14,869
You're history, and I'm tapped
272
00:22:21,306 --> 00:22:23,298
I forgot to turn my phone off.
273
00:22:23,375 --> 00:22:26,868
Since 7:30 this morning,
I've been having people calling...
274
00:22:26,945 --> 00:22:29,505
saying how much they loved it, um,
275
00:22:29,581 --> 00:22:33,074
saying how come
they got such crap seats,
276
00:22:33,151 --> 00:22:35,211
they couldn't get into the party.
277
00:22:35,287 --> 00:22:37,552
You know, listen,
I couldn't even get into the party.
278
00:22:37,622 --> 00:22:40,990
Anyway, listen, are you coming
into the city later on?
279
00:22:41,059 --> 00:22:45,019
If you do, it would be
really nice to see you,
see if you've survived.
280
00:22:45,097 --> 00:22:49,125
Um, there was an e-mail here
from Matt Thornley saying,
281
00:22:49,201 --> 00:22:52,035
um, did you want to see the gear...
282
00:22:52,104 --> 00:22:57,805
which they put out in the middle
of last night in the storage place.
283
00:22:57,876 --> 00:23:00,539
Did you want to see the gear
before it gets sold off...
284
00:23:00,612 --> 00:23:03,411
and dispersed to the winds
kind of thing.
285
00:23:03,482 --> 00:23:05,781
I think he thought
that you might like to do that.
286
00:23:05,851 --> 00:23:11,620
So, look,
drop by the apartment later on
and I'll see you then.
287
00:23:11,690 --> 00:23:13,352
Bye.
288
00:23:17,162 --> 00:23:20,758
What's the difference between who you are
and the perception of you?
289
00:23:20,832 --> 00:23:23,768
From what you can tell
from talking to others.
290
00:23:23,835 --> 00:23:28,102
People seem to think that me or we...
the people in the band...
291
00:23:28,173 --> 00:23:32,201
like, we're exceptional,
differently exceptional
in some way...
292
00:23:32,277 --> 00:23:35,304
or, like, more talented...
293
00:23:35,380 --> 00:23:39,476
or... there's something special.
294
00:23:39,551 --> 00:23:42,180
Where, for me,
the whole goal of the band,
295
00:23:42,254 --> 00:23:44,849
a big, huge point of the band
was just, like,
296
00:23:44,923 --> 00:23:46,516
being very, very...
297
00:23:46,591 --> 00:23:48,526
getting rid of as much
of that as possible.
298
00:23:48,593 --> 00:23:50,960
French bulldog...
whatever the hell you are.
Yes.
299
00:23:51,029 --> 00:23:52,691
French bulldog?
Yes.
300
00:23:52,764 --> 00:23:55,165
How you doing there, baby?
She's good.
301
00:23:55,233 --> 00:23:59,796
Rather than being a bad person,
you're just, like, "I can't be David Bowie.
That's crazy."
302
00:23:59,871 --> 00:24:02,841
People are, like,
"Well, I can fucking be that dude."
303
00:24:02,908 --> 00:24:05,036
But I don't think
that's how it works though.
I know.
304
00:24:05,110 --> 00:24:07,102
It's not the character
that makes people feel that.
305
00:24:07,179 --> 00:24:10,672
It's the place they are
in the culture.
That's what I've come to realize.
306
00:24:10,749 --> 00:24:15,244
That's, like... That's
the wildly, significantly...
307
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,347
We were really ambitious
and competitive,
308
00:24:18,423 --> 00:24:20,153
but that wasn't the ambition.
309
00:24:20,225 --> 00:24:23,525
What was the ambition?
I don't know. To be like...
310
00:24:23,595 --> 00:24:25,461
To leave a mark, I guess...
311
00:24:25,530 --> 00:24:27,465
To leave a stain.
312
00:25:28,326 --> 00:25:30,693
That's how it starts
313
00:25:34,266 --> 00:25:37,498
We go back to your house
314
00:25:41,706 --> 00:25:44,266
We check the charts
315
00:25:47,812 --> 00:25:50,475
And start to figure it out
316
00:25:55,453 --> 00:25:58,946
And if it's crowded, all the better
317
00:26:00,292 --> 00:26:03,524
Because we know
we're gonna be up late
318
00:26:08,366 --> 00:26:11,461
But if you're worried
about the weather
319
00:26:13,772 --> 00:26:17,607
Then you picked
the wrong place to stay?
320
00:26:22,113 --> 00:26:25,709
And so it starts
321
00:26:35,927 --> 00:26:38,158
And so it starts
322
00:26:41,666 --> 00:26:44,363
You switch the engines on
323
00:26:49,074 --> 00:26:52,636
We set controls
for the heart of the sun
324
00:26:53,845 --> 00:26:58,249
One of the ways
we show our age
325
00:27:02,754 --> 00:27:06,156
And if the sun comes up,
if the sun comes up
326
00:27:06,224 --> 00:27:11,561
If the sun comes up
and I still don't wanna stagger home
327
00:27:16,101 --> 00:27:19,594
Then it's the memory of our betters
328
00:27:21,706 --> 00:27:25,199
That are keeping us on our feet
329
00:27:28,446 --> 00:27:33,077
You know, you spent the first five years
just as fast as you can
330
00:27:33,151 --> 00:27:37,486
And the next five years
trying to be with your friends again
331
00:27:43,061 --> 00:27:46,589
You're taking 45 turns
just as fast as you can?
332
00:27:46,665 --> 00:27:50,966
Yeah, I know it gets tired,
but it's better when we pretend
333
00:27:56,908 --> 00:27:59,343
It comes apart
334
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,644
The way it does in bad films
335
00:28:10,021 --> 00:28:13,185
Except the part
336
00:28:16,428 --> 00:28:18,693
When the moral kicks in
337
00:28:23,535 --> 00:28:28,530
And we're running out of the drugs
338
00:28:28,606 --> 00:28:31,542
And the conversation's
winding away?
339
00:28:36,981 --> 00:28:40,440
I wouldn't trade one stupid decision
340
00:28:41,820 --> 00:28:45,985
For another five years of life
341
00:28:49,994 --> 00:28:54,625
You know, you drop the first 10 years
just as fast as you can
342
00:28:54,699 --> 00:28:58,568
And the next 10 fuckers
who are trying to be polite
343
00:29:03,708 --> 00:29:07,338
You know, when you're blowing
85 days in the middle of France
344
00:29:07,412 --> 00:29:09,313
Yeah, I know it gets tired
345
00:29:09,380 --> 00:29:12,782
Only where are your friends
tonight
346
00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:46,518
To tell the truth
347
00:29:50,388 --> 00:29:53,381
This could be the last time
348
00:29:57,562 --> 00:30:00,054
So here we go
349
00:30:02,534 --> 00:30:07,063
Like a sales force into the night
350
00:30:08,239 --> 00:30:10,731
Night
351
00:30:10,809 --> 00:30:13,870
Yeah, if I made a fool,
if I made a fool
352
00:30:13,945 --> 00:30:17,404
If I made a fool on the road
353
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:19,007
There's always this
354
00:30:23,988 --> 00:30:27,618
Yeah, and if I'm sewn
into submission
355
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:33,596
I can still come home to this
356
00:30:37,435 --> 00:30:41,429
And with a face like a dad
and a laughable stance
357
00:30:41,506 --> 00:30:44,101
You can sleep on the plane
or review what you said
358
00:30:44,175 --> 00:30:47,407
When you're drunk
and the kids leave impossible tasks
359
00:30:47,478 --> 00:30:50,573
You think over and over,
"Hey, I'm finally dead."
360
00:30:50,648 --> 00:30:54,016
Oh, if the trip and the plans
come apart in your hand
361
00:30:54,085 --> 00:30:56,850
You look contorted on yourself
your ridiculous prop
362
00:30:56,921 --> 00:31:00,483
You forget what you meant
when you read what you said
363
00:31:00,558 --> 00:31:05,053
And you always knew you were tired,
but then where are your friends tonight
364
00:31:06,130 --> 00:31:08,429
Where are your friends tonight
365
00:31:09,467 --> 00:31:14,929
Where are your friends tonight
366
00:31:15,006 --> 00:31:18,909
Tonight
367
00:31:18,977 --> 00:31:22,277
If I could see all my friends tonight
368
00:31:22,347 --> 00:31:25,613
If I could see all my friends tonight
369
00:31:25,683 --> 00:31:29,620
If I could see all my friends tonight
370
00:31:29,687 --> 00:31:32,350
If I could see
all my friends tonight
371
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,672
Thanks very much.
372
00:32:02,053 --> 00:32:04,921
Let me just quickly explain
how this is going to work.
373
00:32:09,694 --> 00:32:12,562
We, uh... We have a...
374
00:32:12,630 --> 00:32:14,929
We have a really long show tonight.
375
00:32:19,871 --> 00:32:24,104
And to do that for us and for you,
376
00:32:24,175 --> 00:32:26,167
we're just gonna take
a couple of breaks.
377
00:32:37,188 --> 00:32:43,651
Last one keep me going
378
00:32:52,103 --> 00:32:55,437
Lars.
Jesus, I called you Lars.
379
00:32:55,506 --> 00:32:57,907
Jesus Christ.
You know what?
380
00:32:57,976 --> 00:33:01,413
That's what playing
in a big place does...
it makes you into Metallica.
381
00:33:01,479 --> 00:33:02,970
I'm not done.
382
00:33:03,047 --> 00:33:06,779
I mean, we're done as LCD,
but we need to do some amazing shit.
383
00:33:06,851 --> 00:33:08,820
It will be tremendous, yeah.
384
00:33:08,886 --> 00:33:11,549
Arcade Fire is wondering
which mike they go to.
385
00:33:11,622 --> 00:33:14,592
The singer is gonna go
to the far... that side,
386
00:33:14,659 --> 00:33:16,287
the singer side.
387
00:33:16,361 --> 00:33:18,728
Horns here, singers there.
The same way it has been?
388
00:33:18,796 --> 00:33:20,287
Yes.
Okay.
389
00:33:22,967 --> 00:33:25,061
Have you met Keith?
Yeah, yeah.
390
00:33:25,136 --> 00:33:27,731
We have.
Hello. Thank you.
391
00:33:27,805 --> 00:33:31,936
I'm just saying that when you signed up
and then when Spike signed up,
392
00:33:32,010 --> 00:33:33,672
it made me so happy.
393
00:33:33,745 --> 00:33:35,338
Right on.
394
00:33:35,413 --> 00:33:37,882
Oh, my gosh!
395
00:33:37,949 --> 00:33:39,975
Hey, little man.
Hi.
396
00:33:40,051 --> 00:33:43,249
Can I get a high... Oh.
Yeah, you don't care.
397
00:33:43,321 --> 00:33:45,381
- Hey.
- Hi.
398
00:33:45,456 --> 00:33:47,823
- Nice seeing you.
- So nice to see you.
399
00:33:47,892 --> 00:33:52,057
Wait, wait. You need a wristband.
You need a special wristband.
400
00:33:52,130 --> 00:33:54,964
You guys sound so fucking good
out there, man.
401
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,691
I'm so honored.
402
00:33:57,769 --> 00:34:00,170
We're just standing around like
20-year-olds losing their minds.
403
00:34:00,238 --> 00:34:03,470
We have the background singers'
stand with two mikes,
and then we have the band...
404
00:34:03,541 --> 00:34:06,670
They're gonna share.
They're gonna be on the vocal mikes.
The horns are playing the horns.
405
00:34:06,744 --> 00:34:08,440
Right, but...
There's three mikes.
406
00:34:08,513 --> 00:34:10,175
The background singers have...
There's three mikes.
407
00:34:10,248 --> 00:34:12,240
And then we have Reggie
and Nancy's if they need it.
408
00:34:12,316 --> 00:34:14,512
Where do you want them to be?
409
00:34:14,585 --> 00:34:16,315
Background, Reggie, background.
410
00:35:03,835 --> 00:35:06,828
The time has come, the time has come
411
00:35:06,904 --> 00:35:09,601
The time has come today?
412
00:35:10,408 --> 00:35:13,776
The time has come,
the time has come
413
00:35:13,845 --> 00:35:17,077
The time has come today?
414
00:35:17,148 --> 00:35:18,138
Bells.
415
00:35:31,362 --> 00:35:34,389
The time has come, the time has come
416
00:35:34,465 --> 00:35:37,230
The time has come today?
417
00:35:38,369 --> 00:35:41,339
The time has come, the time has come
418
00:35:41,405 --> 00:35:44,739
The time has come today?
419
00:35:44,809 --> 00:35:48,177
And all the good people wanna rescue
420
00:35:48,246 --> 00:35:51,307
From all the terrible people
who wanna talk to you
421
00:35:51,382 --> 00:35:55,012
And all the smart people
wanna tell you
422
00:35:55,086 --> 00:35:58,420
That all the little people
wanna dance, it's true
423
00:35:58,489 --> 00:36:02,153
So the time has come,
the time has come
424
00:36:02,226 --> 00:36:05,822
The time has come, the time has come
425
00:36:05,897 --> 00:36:09,231
The time has come,
the time has come
426
00:36:09,300 --> 00:36:12,532
The time has come,
the time has come too
427
00:36:12,603 --> 00:36:13,593
Shit.
428
00:36:55,446 --> 00:36:58,610
The time has come,
the time has come
429
00:36:58,683 --> 00:37:01,346
The time has come today?
430
00:37:02,653 --> 00:37:05,817
The time has come, the time has come
431
00:37:05,890 --> 00:37:08,951
The time has come today?
432
00:37:09,026 --> 00:37:12,326
And all the good people
wanna rescue
433
00:37:12,396 --> 00:37:15,730
From all the terrible people
who wanna talk to you
434
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,532
And all the smart people
wanna tell you
435
00:37:19,604 --> 00:37:22,665
That all the little people
wanna dance, it's true
436
00:37:22,740 --> 00:37:26,268
So, cloud
437
00:37:26,344 --> 00:37:28,677
Block out the sun
438
00:37:29,981 --> 00:37:33,440
Over me
439
00:37:33,517 --> 00:37:36,510
Over me
440
00:37:37,688 --> 00:37:40,590
And spoil
441
00:37:40,658 --> 00:37:42,957
Spoil all the fun
442
00:37:44,161 --> 00:37:48,496
Won't you please
443
00:37:48,566 --> 00:37:52,469
Yeah
444
00:38:20,464 --> 00:38:22,899
Cloud
445
00:38:22,967 --> 00:38:25,061
Block out the sun
446
00:38:26,937 --> 00:38:28,929
Over me
447
00:38:29,974 --> 00:38:33,775
Over me
448
00:38:33,844 --> 00:38:36,837
And spoil
449
00:38:36,914 --> 00:38:39,383
Spoil all the fun
450
00:38:40,584 --> 00:38:44,817
Won't you please
451
00:38:44,889 --> 00:38:47,654
Yeah
452
00:38:47,725 --> 00:38:51,162
If you please
453
00:38:51,228 --> 00:38:53,720
Please anyone
454
00:38:54,799 --> 00:38:56,233
Talk to me
455
00:38:58,235 --> 00:39:00,397
Talk to me
456
00:39:02,073 --> 00:39:05,134
All you boys
457
00:39:05,209 --> 00:39:07,303
Lonely and drunk
458
00:39:08,813 --> 00:39:13,046
On your knees
459
00:39:13,117 --> 00:39:17,054
Yeah
460
00:39:44,882 --> 00:39:48,046
Us v. them
461
00:39:48,119 --> 00:39:50,588
Over and over again
462
00:39:51,889 --> 00:39:55,053
Us v. them
463
00:39:55,126 --> 00:39:58,619
Over and over again
464
00:39:58,696 --> 00:40:01,757
Us v. them
465
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,266
Over and over again
466
00:40:04,335 --> 00:40:06,133
And again
467
00:40:06,203 --> 00:40:08,729
All the good people
wanna rescue
468
00:40:08,806 --> 00:40:12,004
From all the terrible people
who wanna talk to you
469
00:40:12,076 --> 00:40:16,275
And all the smart people
wanna tell you
470
00:40:16,347 --> 00:40:20,079
All the little people
wanna dance, it's true
471
00:40:20,151 --> 00:40:22,382
Us v. them
472
00:40:23,387 --> 00:40:26,824
Over and over again
473
00:40:26,891 --> 00:40:30,521
Us v. them
474
00:40:30,594 --> 00:40:32,825
Over and over again
475
00:40:33,998 --> 00:40:37,298
Us v. them
476
00:40:37,368 --> 00:40:41,135
Over and over again
477
00:40:41,205 --> 00:40:44,300
Us v. them
478
00:40:44,375 --> 00:40:47,470
Over and over
and over again
479
00:40:48,412 --> 00:40:51,507
Us v. them
480
00:40:51,582 --> 00:40:53,744
Over and over again
481
00:40:57,121 --> 00:40:59,454
Because you had mentioned,
you know,
482
00:40:59,523 --> 00:41:02,891
if you liked Lou Reed,
you could wear sunglasses or whatever
and all these things.
483
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,452
So how did that apply
to LCD Soundsystem,
484
00:41:05,529 --> 00:41:11,093
in the sense that when people
who are fans of your band
are at your show,
485
00:41:11,168 --> 00:41:16,232
is the experience mostly musical
with just a little bit of cultural, sort of,
486
00:41:16,307 --> 00:41:18,503
kind of melded through?
487
00:41:18,576 --> 00:41:21,603
Or is it sort of a shared 50/50 thing...
488
00:41:21,679 --> 00:41:23,773
where the culture is
as much as the music?
489
00:41:23,848 --> 00:41:25,510
It's gotta be a 50/50 thing.
490
00:41:25,583 --> 00:41:28,314
I think, experientially,
it's gotta be a division
between those things...
491
00:41:28,385 --> 00:41:31,844
because I didn't go
to shows that I loved...
492
00:41:31,922 --> 00:41:35,086
I've never gone to a show
and loved it...
493
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:39,096
without believing something
about the people that are doing it...
494
00:41:39,163 --> 00:41:43,863
whether it's belief that I carried in
and they confirmed by their performance,
495
00:41:43,934 --> 00:41:47,928
or a belie fin them
that they got me straight
from the performance,
496
00:41:48,005 --> 00:41:49,496
I didn't know them.
497
00:41:49,573 --> 00:41:51,633
Like, if you go see Nick Cave...
498
00:41:51,709 --> 00:41:56,272
He's one of these last
sort of mythic guys.
499
00:41:56,347 --> 00:41:58,646
He's like a real mythical guy to me.
500
00:41:58,716 --> 00:42:00,708
Like, growing up,
listening to The Birthday Party,
501
00:42:00,784 --> 00:42:03,379
like, he was terrifying to me.
502
00:42:03,454 --> 00:42:08,415
And in becoming
a recording artist,
whatever,
503
00:42:08,492 --> 00:42:10,484
and getting older,
I'm starting to realize,
504
00:42:10,561 --> 00:42:12,860
there's no way...
I'm still in this position
where I'm, like,
505
00:42:12,930 --> 00:42:14,922
I have to let go of some...
506
00:42:16,300 --> 00:42:18,769
I have to recognize he's just a dude.
507
00:42:18,836 --> 00:42:22,068
He's gotta go check his e-mail,
and he's gotta check in for the plane.
508
00:42:22,139 --> 00:42:26,133
Um, but up there, there's just
something else happening...
509
00:42:26,210 --> 00:42:29,078
that, like, I, as, you know,
not a 16-year-old,
510
00:42:29,146 --> 00:42:30,808
am still transported by.
511
00:42:42,893 --> 00:42:44,555
Ooh
512
00:43:25,436 --> 00:43:30,374
Ooh
513
00:43:46,724 --> 00:43:48,215
Shame on you
514
00:43:54,565 --> 00:43:57,194
Shame on you
515
00:43:59,603 --> 00:44:01,538
Hey?
516
00:44:01,605 --> 00:44:03,699
Your love away from me
517
00:44:03,774 --> 00:44:06,107
You can't hide it
518
00:44:06,176 --> 00:44:07,235
Hey?
519
00:44:10,147 --> 00:44:11,513
Your love away from me
520
00:44:11,582 --> 00:44:13,414
Shame on you
521
00:44:16,654 --> 00:44:18,680
Hey?
522
00:44:18,756 --> 00:44:21,521
Your love away from me
You can't hide it
523
00:44:22,826 --> 00:44:24,488
Hey?
524
00:44:26,330 --> 00:44:28,196
Your love away from me
525
00:44:28,265 --> 00:44:30,200
Shame on you
526
00:44:34,571 --> 00:44:36,597
Your love away from me
527
00:44:36,674 --> 00:44:38,336
You can't hide it
528
00:44:39,343 --> 00:44:43,007
- Hey?
- Ooh
529
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,413
Your love away from me
Shame on you
530
00:44:51,021 --> 00:44:52,956
Your love away from me
531
00:44:53,023 --> 00:44:55,390
You can't hide it
532
00:44:55,459 --> 00:44:56,518
Hey?
533
00:44:59,530 --> 00:45:01,226
Your love away from me
534
00:45:01,298 --> 00:45:02,926
Shame on you
535
00:45:06,136 --> 00:45:08,196
Oh, no
536
00:45:08,272 --> 00:45:11,401
- Still you can
- But I'll be lonely?
537
00:45:14,311 --> 00:45:16,439
Oh, no
538
00:45:16,513 --> 00:45:19,574
Still you can
And I'll be lonely?
539
00:45:20,718 --> 00:45:21,811
Hey?
540
00:45:24,455 --> 00:45:26,117
Your love away from me
541
00:45:26,190 --> 00:45:28,250
You can't hide it
542
00:45:29,059 --> 00:45:30,721
Hey?
543
00:45:31,862 --> 00:45:34,491
Your love away from me
544
00:45:34,565 --> 00:45:36,397
Shame on you
545
00:45:40,738 --> 00:45:42,570
Your love away from me
546
00:45:42,639 --> 00:45:44,232
You can't hide it
547
00:45:45,409 --> 00:45:47,275
Hey?
548
00:45:47,344 --> 00:45:49,404
Oh, no
549
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:55,647
Still you can tell
by the way I walk
550
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,813
New situation
551
00:45:57,888 --> 00:46:00,289
Got your love light
552
00:46:02,726 --> 00:46:04,456
Swing to and fro
553
00:46:04,528 --> 00:46:08,192
It's a love
that can never hold me
554
00:46:10,334 --> 00:46:12,132
No time
555
00:46:16,673 --> 00:46:18,835
I'm gonna do what it takes
556
00:46:18,909 --> 00:46:21,879
To be lovin' like you do
557
00:46:21,945 --> 00:46:23,607
Not what you told me
558
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:25,672
But I've got to let you know
559
00:46:25,749 --> 00:46:28,275
But can lead me through lovin'?
560
00:46:28,352 --> 00:46:31,288
I don't feel like it's one note
561
00:46:31,355 --> 00:46:33,381
And I know that it's in me
562
00:46:33,457 --> 00:46:36,291
Symphony, symphony?
563
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,194
All by myself?
564
00:46:39,263 --> 00:46:41,789
It's lucky?
565
00:46:41,865 --> 00:46:45,324
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
566
00:46:45,402 --> 00:46:48,634
Givin' you some information
But I'm done tryin' to move
567
00:46:58,081 --> 00:47:00,676
Yeah, oh, oh
568
00:47:00,751 --> 00:47:03,016
Sound of silver, talk to me
569
00:47:03,086 --> 00:47:05,749
Makes you want to feel
like a teenager
570
00:47:05,823 --> 00:47:10,022
Until you remember
the feelings of?
571
00:47:10,093 --> 00:47:14,189
A real, live emotional teenager
572
00:47:14,264 --> 00:47:16,062
Then you think again
573
00:47:17,668 --> 00:47:19,159
Come on.
574
00:47:19,236 --> 00:47:21,364
Hello.
575
00:47:21,438 --> 00:47:22,929
Hello.
576
00:47:33,317 --> 00:47:34,808
Hello?
577
00:47:37,020 --> 00:47:38,955
I'm at the office.
578
00:47:39,990 --> 00:47:42,687
Well, I have a bunch of shit.
I have, uh...
579
00:47:42,759 --> 00:47:46,855
Nancy left clothes
at the, um, Tribeca Grand
at the after party,
580
00:47:46,930 --> 00:47:52,130
and, uh, I left my computer
at the...
581
00:47:52,202 --> 00:47:56,902
Yeah, I put it in a record bag.
I'm a fucking idiot, so I deserve it.
582
00:47:58,775 --> 00:48:01,335
It feels disturbingly normal.
583
00:48:03,714 --> 00:48:06,741
No, I don't feel, uh...
584
00:48:06,817 --> 00:48:09,719
I haven't had time.
I'm still running around like crazy.
585
00:48:11,889 --> 00:48:15,291
I know. Dude, I haven't
been here in a year.
586
00:48:16,326 --> 00:48:17,919
We're gonna have dinner at Marlow.
587
00:48:17,995 --> 00:48:21,488
I hope. I can't get in touch with Al.
I can't get in touch with Tyler.
588
00:48:22,866 --> 00:48:25,597
That's why I'm trying to see everybody,
before everybody just disappears.
589
00:48:30,741 --> 00:48:32,471
Hello.
590
00:48:34,912 --> 00:48:37,313
You're awake.
591
00:48:37,381 --> 00:48:40,010
I... I got your thing.
592
00:48:41,585 --> 00:48:44,919
No. I just... I'm at the office.
593
00:48:44,988 --> 00:48:46,752
I know.
594
00:48:47,724 --> 00:48:49,215
I know.
595
00:48:50,394 --> 00:48:53,330
I'm trying not to think about it.
596
00:48:53,397 --> 00:48:58,199
I have to fucking go
to the storage space
and look at all the shit.
597
00:48:58,268 --> 00:49:02,000
I mean, it's, like, a fortune
to store it there.
598
00:49:02,072 --> 00:49:06,066
Well, just look at the list.
I don't have to look at
the fucking funeral pyre.
599
00:49:11,048 --> 00:49:13,074
Okay.
I'll see you in a little bit.
600
00:49:14,418 --> 00:49:17,013
I know. I just have to
go deal with the gear.
601
00:49:19,856 --> 00:49:22,451
Okay. All right.
602
00:49:23,193 --> 00:49:25,355
I love you.
603
00:49:25,429 --> 00:49:27,364
Bye, little person.
604
00:49:33,070 --> 00:49:36,404
I don't know
if you'll take this as a compliment
or as a negative thing,
605
00:49:36,473 --> 00:49:40,911
but sometimes I do think
"Losing My Edge" is the most brilliant
thing you've done...
606
00:49:40,978 --> 00:49:43,311
and that that might stand alone
separately...
607
00:49:43,380 --> 00:49:46,111
not because it's the greatest song
you ever made,
608
00:49:46,183 --> 00:49:49,676
but it seems like the ideology
and the sentiment of that song...
609
00:49:49,753 --> 00:49:52,518
is not only very timely
for what was happening in the world,
610
00:49:52,589 --> 00:49:56,651
but I don't really think...
I can't think of any other songs like that.
611
00:49:56,727 --> 00:49:58,719
But I'm losing my edge
612
00:50:01,898 --> 00:50:04,060
The kids
613
00:50:04,134 --> 00:50:06,467
Are coming up from behind
614
00:50:09,606 --> 00:50:11,768
Yeah, I'm losing my edge
615
00:50:13,910 --> 00:50:15,845
And I'm losing my edge
616
00:50:15,912 --> 00:50:18,313
And the timing of it was really good...
617
00:50:18,382 --> 00:50:22,513
because the Internet was causing people
to have a different relationship with history.
618
00:50:22,586 --> 00:50:27,786
And a young person
could suddenly be as fluent...
didn't have to have the life experience.
619
00:50:27,858 --> 00:50:30,851
And I feel like that song...
which is why it's so interesting to me...
620
00:50:30,927 --> 00:50:35,456
is that your awareness
that this was happening to you, I think,
was very unique.
621
00:50:35,532 --> 00:50:37,524
Yeah, I'm losing my edge
622
00:50:39,669 --> 00:50:41,661
I'm losing my edge
623
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,773
I can hear their footsteps
624
00:50:47,010 --> 00:50:49,172
When they get on the decks
625
00:50:52,149 --> 00:50:54,641
I never took exception,
but I always found it very funny...
626
00:50:54,718 --> 00:50:57,711
that people saw this like... you have
these funny songs, "I'm Losing My Edge."
Then you'll be serious.
627
00:50:57,788 --> 00:51:00,087
I was, like, that song
is as serious as a heart attack.
628
00:51:00,157 --> 00:51:02,422
That song is really sad.
There's funny parts in it.
629
00:51:02,492 --> 00:51:05,189
Yeah, of course.
But there's funny parts
at a funeral.
630
00:51:05,262 --> 00:51:07,788
Yeah, I'm losing my edge
631
00:51:09,766 --> 00:51:12,292
To the Internet seekers
632
00:51:13,003 --> 00:51:14,995
Who can tell me
633
00:51:15,072 --> 00:51:18,008
Every member of every good group
634
00:51:18,075 --> 00:51:21,443
From 1964 to 1978
635
00:51:21,511 --> 00:51:24,071
Y'all wake up
Losing my edge
636
00:51:24,748 --> 00:51:28,276
At that moment, I was, like,
very aware that that was, like,
a really weird place to be...
637
00:51:28,351 --> 00:51:30,183
to be 30...
638
00:51:30,253 --> 00:51:34,987
and have never really succeeded
at being cool,
639
00:51:35,058 --> 00:51:37,857
and then suddenly
it's like the world slowing down,
640
00:51:37,928 --> 00:51:40,659
and me seeing my way in it...
641
00:51:40,730 --> 00:51:44,792
and realizing how easy things are,
just playing the music that I like.
642
00:51:44,868 --> 00:51:46,928
All these other deejays are playing
all this boring shit,
643
00:51:47,003 --> 00:51:51,737
and they're terrified...
they're terrified to mess up their mix
or lose the dance floor.
644
00:51:51,808 --> 00:51:55,540
And I can come out
and, like, already be on Ecstasy
before I'm playing...
645
00:51:55,612 --> 00:51:57,774
and just start playing,
like, The Stooges.
646
00:51:57,848 --> 00:52:02,343
And all it would take is there
to be a couple people that were just,
like, "This rules. This person's insane."
647
00:52:03,353 --> 00:52:05,151
Now I'm losing my edge
648
00:52:06,356 --> 00:52:09,190
The first inkling of, like,
the sun going down on that moment...
649
00:52:09,259 --> 00:52:11,023
I was going to see a band
at the Brownies,
650
00:52:11,094 --> 00:52:14,496
and I looked over,
and someone's playing
"Mind Your Own Business" by Delta 5.
651
00:52:14,564 --> 00:52:16,123
And I'm, like, "What Wait a second."
652
00:52:16,199 --> 00:52:19,328
Then they played Liquid Liquid,
and I'm, like, "Wait. "These people
are playing my fucking records."
653
00:52:19,402 --> 00:52:23,533
And I suddenly got panicked
that all my great new life would come...
654
00:52:23,607 --> 00:52:26,873
It's like a sad hipster deejay
Revolutionary Road.
655
00:52:26,943 --> 00:52:30,744
Right I'm, like, "This little dream
is gonna come to an end."
656
00:52:30,814 --> 00:52:33,215
And I... I wrote a song from it.
657
00:52:41,424 --> 00:52:45,589
Whoo... hoo... hoo
658
00:52:52,702 --> 00:52:54,603
I heard that
you have a compilation
659
00:52:54,671 --> 00:52:57,869
Of every good song
ever done by anybody?
660
00:52:57,941 --> 00:53:00,843
Every great song
by The Beach Boys
661
00:53:00,911 --> 00:53:03,278
All the underground hits
662
00:53:03,346 --> 00:53:05,645
All the Modern Lovers tracks
663
00:53:05,715 --> 00:53:09,709
I heard that you have
every seminal Detroit techno hit
1985, '86, '87
664
00:53:09,786 --> 00:53:13,348
I heard you have every Niagara record
on German import
665
00:53:13,423 --> 00:53:15,722
I heard that you have
666
00:53:17,629 --> 00:53:19,564
A CD compilation
667
00:53:19,631 --> 00:53:21,566
Of every good '60s cut
668
00:53:21,633 --> 00:53:25,126
And another...
a box set from the '70s
669
00:53:25,203 --> 00:53:28,105
And I hear you're
buying a sequencer
670
00:53:28,172 --> 00:53:30,300
And an arpeggiator
That's the best move
671
00:53:30,375 --> 00:53:31,809
And throwing your computer
out the window
672
00:53:31,876 --> 00:53:34,812
Why Because you'd like
to make something real
673
00:53:34,879 --> 00:53:37,405
What would you like to make?
Like to make a Yaz record
674
00:53:39,484 --> 00:53:42,648
I hear that you
and your friends
675
00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:45,747
I hear that you and your friends
676
00:53:45,823 --> 00:53:48,224
I hear that you and your friends
have sold your guitars
677
00:53:48,292 --> 00:53:50,284
You bought turntables
678
00:53:51,996 --> 00:53:55,091
I hear that you and your friends
have sold your turntables
and you bought guitars
679
00:53:58,169 --> 00:54:00,161
I hear that
everyone that you know
680
00:54:02,240 --> 00:54:04,402
Is more relevant
681
00:54:04,475 --> 00:54:07,912
Than my favorite fuckers I know
682

You can't hide
697
00:54:50,488 --> 00:54:51,979
Your love away from me
698
00:54:52,056 --> 00:54:54,457
You can't hide
699
00:54:54,525 --> 00:54:56,050
Hey?
700
00:54:58,162 --> 00:54:59,653
Your love away from me
701
00:54:59,731 --> 00:55:01,427
But shame on you
702
00:55:07,305 --> 00:55:08,967
Oh, I love the unity, man.
703
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:10,508
Unity!
Unity!
704
00:55:10,575 --> 00:55:12,737
The knuckle that Juan has.
705
00:55:18,483 --> 00:55:19,974
Are we on?
706
00:55:20,818 --> 00:55:24,016
Am I here?
Over here, spotlight.
707
00:55:24,088 --> 00:55:25,681
Hi, everybody.
708
00:55:26,758 --> 00:55:28,488
Well, well, well.
709
00:55:28,559 --> 00:55:30,858
Madison Square Garden.
710
00:55:31,562 --> 00:55:33,053
Guess who I'm here with.
711
00:55:33,131 --> 00:55:34,963
This is James Murphy...
712
00:55:35,032 --> 00:55:36,523
his older brother Tom.
713
00:55:36,601 --> 00:55:38,593
Everybody say, "Hi, Tom."
714
00:55:38,669 --> 00:55:40,570
Hi, Tom!
715
00:55:40,638 --> 00:55:43,301
Tom, how do you think
your little brother is doing tonight?
716
00:55:43,374 --> 00:55:45,400
I'm not gonna be critical.
717
00:55:45,476 --> 00:55:47,672
I think he's doing pretty well.
718
00:55:47,745 --> 00:55:49,839
How about you?
719
00:55:49,914 --> 00:55:51,712
That was...
720
00:55:51,783 --> 00:55:55,083
That's pretty good.
I think that was a pretty good response.
721
00:55:55,153 --> 00:55:57,179
So you're enjoying the show
so far, everybody?
722
00:55:57,255 --> 00:55:58,883
Good.
723
00:55:58,956 --> 00:56:02,222
I think what we should do now
is thank LCD Soundsystem...
724
00:56:02,293 --> 00:56:04,262
for making all this amazing music for us.
725
00:56:04,328 --> 00:56:08,356
So, on the count of three, let's all say,
"Thank you, LCD Soundsystem."
726
00:56:08,432 --> 00:56:10,560
One, two, three.
727
00:56:10,635 --> 00:56:13,730
Thank you, LCD Soundsystem!
728
00:56:13,805 --> 00:56:16,934
And now back to you, gentlemen.
It's all yours.
729
00:56:17,008 --> 00:56:19,500
Thanks, guys.
Have a good night.
730
00:56:30,988 --> 00:56:32,980
Something really quickly.
731
00:56:33,057 --> 00:56:37,722
You might think this is a big show
and we're putting on a big show.
732
00:56:37,795 --> 00:56:41,732
Um, there's a lot of people
who just volunteered to do this with us,
733
00:56:41,799 --> 00:56:44,860
like, flew themselves here
and performed with us...
734
00:56:44,936 --> 00:56:47,906
and who live here
and just put their time in.
735
00:56:47,972 --> 00:56:51,932
And I want you to know
that there's a lot of people...
736
00:56:52,009 --> 00:56:53,910
who just dedicated themselves
to doing this,
737
00:56:53,978 --> 00:56:58,143
to put this weird thing on
in this totally...
738
00:56:58,216 --> 00:57:01,311
in a boxing arena, basically.
739
00:57:02,954 --> 00:57:05,651
We had a tour a couple years ago...
740
00:57:07,325 --> 00:57:10,261
with our friends, with a band...
741
00:57:12,129 --> 00:57:14,894
who is, I mean,
742
00:57:14,966 --> 00:57:18,061
technically from Canada,
but there's two Americans.
743
00:57:18,135 --> 00:57:20,297
North and south.
744
00:57:20,371 --> 00:57:22,135
There's two Americans.
North... Southern...
745
00:57:22,206 --> 00:57:24,732
Well, you guys are like...
You guys are like Bush.
746
00:57:24,809 --> 00:57:27,176
You know, you've got the Maine... Texas...
747
00:57:27,245 --> 00:57:29,111
There's Central America too, technically.
748
00:57:29,180 --> 00:57:30,978
Yeah, you've got both.
749
00:57:32,416 --> 00:57:33,907
So we did a...
750
00:57:35,086 --> 00:57:40,252
We did a tour, and weirdly,
there was a song that thematically worked...
751
00:57:41,726 --> 00:57:44,491
as well as musically worked
to have people play with us.
752
00:57:44,562 --> 00:57:46,326
Shut up and play the hits!
753
00:57:47,231 --> 00:57:48,790
Ladies and gentlemen,
754
00:57:48,866 --> 00:57:51,859
for our live record called
Shut Up and Play the Hits...
755
00:57:51,936 --> 00:57:53,461
Whoo!
756
00:57:57,475 --> 00:57:59,808
Nah, I'm not going to...
Fuck you guys. Know what I mean?
757
00:58:01,746 --> 00:58:05,581
And we have two...
Aw, man, this is like a history trip.
758
00:58:06,517 --> 00:58:08,315
Two horny horns,
759
00:58:09,420 --> 00:58:12,686
one kind of flatulent drummer...
760
00:58:14,025 --> 00:58:16,017
and three troubled souls.
761
00:58:16,894 --> 00:58:18,988
Three troubled...
Four troubled souls.
762
00:58:23,701 --> 00:58:26,136
Huh, huh, huh
763
00:58:27,672 --> 00:58:29,766
It's Australia, 2008!
764
00:58:30,341 --> 00:58:32,606
Huh, huh, huh, huh
765
00:58:36,714 --> 00:58:39,081
Huh, huh, huh
766
00:58:43,187 --> 00:58:44,985
Huh, huh, huh, huh
767
00:58:45,056 --> 00:58:46,581
Oh, I don't know, I don't know
768
00:58:46,657 --> 00:58:48,649
Oh, where to begin
769
00:58:48,726 --> 00:58:51,127
We are North American
770
00:58:51,195 --> 00:58:54,825
And for those, for those
who think that we're from England
771
00:58:54,899 --> 00:58:56,390
We're not
772
00:58:57,101 --> 00:59:00,697
We've been on planes and on trains
till we think we might die
773
00:59:01,272 --> 00:59:03,332
Far from North America
774
00:59:03,407 --> 00:59:06,809
Well, your buildings are old
and you might have lots of mimes
775
00:59:09,981 --> 00:59:13,577
I hate the feeling
when you're lookin' at me this way?
776
00:59:13,651 --> 00:59:16,211
'Cause we're North American
777
00:59:16,287 --> 00:59:19,314
But if we act all shy
it'll make it go away?
778
00:59:19,390 --> 00:59:21,256
Makes it okay?
779
00:59:22,326 --> 00:59:25,922
Oh, I don't know, I don't know
oh, where to begin
780
00:59:25,997 --> 00:59:28,057
'Cause we're North American
781
00:59:28,132 --> 00:59:32,263
But in the end
make the same mistakes all over again
782
00:59:32,336 --> 00:59:34,931
Come on, North Americans
783
00:59:38,275 --> 00:59:41,302
Fuck, yeah, North American scum
784
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:44,771
Yeah
785
00:59:44,849 --> 00:59:47,080
We are North American
786
00:59:51,956 --> 00:59:54,187
Shout, shout, shout it
787
00:59:59,196 --> 01:00:02,860
And all the kids, all the kids
they want to make the scene
788
01:00:02,933 --> 01:00:05,300
Here in North America
789
01:00:05,369 --> 01:00:09,101
And all your kids
get to read it in your magazines
790
01:00:09,173 --> 01:00:10,732
We don't have those
791
01:00:11,275 --> 01:00:13,835
So where's the love, where's the love
where's the love
792
01:00:13,911 --> 01:00:16,176
Where's the love
Where's the love tonight
793
01:00:17,548 --> 01:00:19,244
But there's no love, man
794
01:00:19,316 --> 01:00:21,876
There's no love when the kids are uptight
795
01:00:21,952 --> 01:00:23,716
Uh, uh, so
796
01:00:23,788 --> 01:00:27,486
So throw a party till the cops come in
and bust it up
797
01:00:27,558 --> 01:00:29,618
Check outta of?
North America
798
01:00:29,693 --> 01:00:34,927
- Oh, you were planning it
I didn't mean to interrupt
- Sorry?
799
01:00:36,100 --> 01:00:39,400
I did it once
and my parents got pretty upset
800
01:00:40,071 --> 01:00:42,165
Freaked out in North America
801
01:00:42,239 --> 01:00:46,142
And then I said the more I do it
the better it gets
802
01:00:46,210 --> 01:00:48,202
Check out North America
803
01:00:52,383 --> 01:00:55,251
We are North American scum
804
01:00:58,522 --> 01:01:01,185
We're from North America
805
01:01:04,495 --> 01:01:07,158
We are North American scum
806
01:01:10,067 --> 01:01:13,333
Check out
We are North American
807
01:01:25,249 --> 01:01:28,048
New York's the greatest
if you've got someone to pay for it
808
01:01:29,587 --> 01:01:31,283
North America
809
01:01:31,355 --> 01:01:34,985
And it's the furthest you can live
from the government
810
01:01:37,728 --> 01:01:41,221
Some proud American Christians
might disagree
811
01:01:41,298 --> 01:01:43,699
- Hah!
- North America
812
01:01:43,767 --> 01:01:47,135
New York's the only place
we're keepin' them off the street
813
01:01:47,204 --> 01:01:48,365
Oh!
814
01:01:49,573 --> 01:01:53,476
We can't have parties
where they go all night
815
01:01:53,544 --> 01:01:55,877
Shut down in
North America
816
01:01:55,946 --> 01:01:57,574
Or like Berlin
where they go another night
817
01:01:57,648 --> 01:01:59,640
All right!
818
01:01:59,717 --> 01:02:01,709
Uh, uh
819
01:02:01,785 --> 01:02:05,313
You see, I love this place
that I have grown to know
820
01:02:05,389 --> 01:02:08,018
- Come on
- North America
821
01:02:08,092 --> 01:02:11,085
And, yeah, I know you wouldn't
touch it with a 10-foot pole
822
01:02:11,162 --> 01:02:14,189
- Come on
- North America
823
01:02:17,968 --> 01:02:19,960
We are North American scum
824
01:02:24,041 --> 01:02:26,374
We're from North America
825
01:02:30,247 --> 01:02:33,081
We are North American scum
826
01:02:36,187 --> 01:02:40,056
We are North American
827
01:02:40,124 --> 01:02:42,457
Take me back to the States, man
828
01:02:43,027 --> 01:02:45,087
North American scum
829
01:02:46,197 --> 01:02:48,757
Where we can rock
830
01:02:48,832 --> 01:02:51,495
To North America
831
01:02:51,569 --> 01:02:54,437
Where the deejays are so much fun
832
01:02:54,505 --> 01:02:57,498
Spinnin' North American scum
833
01:02:57,575 --> 01:03:00,636
And don't blame the Canadians
834
01:03:00,711 --> 01:03:03,044
Let's go, North America
835
01:03:09,787 --> 01:03:14,919
So you strike me as somebody
who is acutely aware of your age,
836
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:19,522
that your age seems to play a role
in a lot of the things you think about.
837
01:03:19,597 --> 01:03:21,623
Not just the years themselves,
838
01:03:21,699 --> 01:03:24,032
but the amount of experience
and stuff like that.
839
01:03:24,101 --> 01:03:26,400
And, you know, if you were a writer,
you would still be young.
840
01:03:26,470 --> 01:03:28,336
That's why I've always wanted
to get into that.
841
01:03:28,405 --> 01:03:31,705
And if you were an actor,
you'd be kind of right in the sweet spot.
Yeah.
842
01:03:31,775 --> 01:03:35,871
But when you're a musician,
a rock musician...
843
01:03:35,946 --> 01:03:38,745
or an athlete or, like, a mathematician...
844
01:03:38,816 --> 01:03:43,254
the assumption seems to be
you have to succeed early.
845
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,949
So how much is your motive
for quitting the band...
846
01:03:46,023 --> 01:03:50,256
solely a product of,
you feel too old to be doing it,
and it feels weird?
847
01:03:52,363 --> 01:03:56,801
I was 38 years old and I said,
"I'm going to make a record."
848
01:03:56,867 --> 01:04:00,326
Um, you know,
"Going to make another record."
849
01:04:00,404 --> 01:04:03,135
And then I blinked and I was 41.
850
01:04:03,207 --> 01:04:06,575
And I don't have any kids,
and I want to have kids
and I want to have a life.
851
01:04:06,644 --> 01:04:08,135
And I feel like
that's, like, a genuine thing.
852
01:04:08,212 --> 01:04:10,807
It's, like, I can't...
I blink twice more and I'm 50.
853
01:04:10,881 --> 01:04:13,316
Every time I go on tour,
I get new gray.
854
01:04:13,384 --> 01:04:16,013
When I don't go on tour...
I didn't go on tour for two years...
855
01:04:16,086 --> 01:04:18,419
I got no extra gray.
856
01:04:18,489 --> 01:04:20,583
I didn't age at all in two years.
857
01:04:20,658 --> 01:04:21,887
I saw pictures.
858
01:04:21,959 --> 01:04:23,689
When I got home
from Sound of Silver tour...
859
01:04:23,761 --> 01:04:26,390
and when I got ready to go on tour,
and it's the same.
860
01:04:26,463 --> 01:04:31,697
And then a month or two into tour,
you know, a big patch on my neck.
861
01:04:31,769 --> 01:04:35,570
And I'm like,
"Well, that's the visible, funny sign."
862
01:04:35,639 --> 01:04:38,837
Like, I'm getting gray hairs
on my face.
863
01:04:38,909 --> 01:04:40,901
But what the fuck's
going on inside?
864
01:04:40,978 --> 01:04:47,646
What's going on in my liver
or in my lower intestine, or...
865
01:04:47,718 --> 01:04:51,485
You know, I don't want to die.
I don't want to die.
866
01:04:52,489 --> 01:04:54,924
How you feelin'?
867
01:04:54,992 --> 01:04:57,052
I'm fucked.
Fucking hell.
868
01:04:59,463 --> 01:05:00,522
What...
869
01:05:02,166 --> 01:05:04,465
I am absolutely fucked.
870
01:05:05,369 --> 01:05:07,167
Smells a bit like gas.
871
01:05:07,237 --> 01:05:09,570
It does. Actually, it's this...
872
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:11,700
It's this new addition and it's, like...
873
01:05:11,775 --> 01:05:16,338
It's spewing gas,
but not enough to kill you.
Is that bad?
874
01:05:16,413 --> 01:05:18,507
I feel like somebody
put my head on the desk...
875
01:05:18,582 --> 01:05:22,019
and hit me with six bottles
of champagne.
876
01:05:22,086 --> 01:05:24,282
That was me.
I think it was me, actually.
877
01:05:26,357 --> 01:05:28,189
Good champagne though.
878
01:05:28,258 --> 01:05:30,250
Yeah, I'm absolutely whacked.
879
01:05:30,327 --> 01:05:33,092
I spent the whole morning
just staring at the wall.
880
01:05:33,163 --> 01:05:35,894
Kind of like, "Am I here?
Am I there What the hell?"
881
01:05:35,966 --> 01:05:38,731
You know,
27-hour day and all that.
882
01:05:38,802 --> 01:05:42,204
But seriously,
how fucking amazing was that?
883
01:05:43,474 --> 01:05:46,410
How fucking amazing
was that?
884
01:05:46,477 --> 01:05:47,740
I feel great.
885
01:05:47,811 --> 01:05:49,939
I feel super weird,
but I feel good.
886
01:05:50,013 --> 01:05:53,211
It is super weird,
it's completely weird,
887
01:05:53,283 --> 01:05:58,847
but it's, like, we fucking went out
on a total fucking high.
888
01:05:58,922 --> 01:06:02,324
I didn't feel great this morning...
889
01:06:02,393 --> 01:06:04,055
but I feel pretty good now.
890
01:06:04,128 --> 01:06:06,893
There was backstage booze,
I think, that I want to make sure...
891
01:06:06,964 --> 01:06:08,796
Believe me, you...
892
01:06:08,866 --> 01:06:11,961
From what I saw,
you had your fair share, dear boy.
893
01:06:12,035 --> 01:06:13,367
It's a long show.
894
01:06:13,437 --> 01:06:15,030
It's a long show.
895
01:06:15,105 --> 01:06:17,768
Thank God you weren't drinking
Irish cunt, is all I can say.
896
01:06:17,841 --> 01:06:19,332
Exactly.
897
01:06:19,410 --> 01:06:21,208
Oh.
898
01:06:23,247 --> 01:06:26,581
Uh, London.
899
01:06:26,650 --> 01:06:28,881
Don't recognize it.
900
01:06:28,952 --> 01:06:33,151
Uh, I think we'll say bye-bye.
901
01:06:33,223 --> 01:06:35,124
Just wait till you see this.
902
01:06:35,192 --> 01:06:36,854
You now have a weird one for me?
903
01:06:36,927 --> 01:06:41,365
This is kinda like Monty Python
meets LCD Soundsystem...
904
01:06:41,432 --> 01:06:43,162
at Madison Square Garden.
905
01:06:44,535 --> 01:06:46,902
I'm going to leave this with you...
906
01:06:46,970 --> 01:06:49,599
and go to the little boys' room
and have a pee-pee.
907
01:06:53,110 --> 01:06:54,942
Dude, what is this thing?
908
01:06:57,014 --> 01:06:59,449
It's your trophy, mate.
909
01:06:59,516 --> 01:07:01,542
This is a sad object, dude.
910
01:07:20,037 --> 01:07:24,202
There it is.
LCD Soundsystem sells out.
911
01:07:24,274 --> 01:07:26,072
It literally says "sold out."
912
01:07:26,143 --> 01:07:27,372
Sold out.
913
01:07:27,444 --> 01:07:30,573
I've got a perfect solution
for your giant bottle of Scotch.
914
01:07:30,647 --> 01:07:33,617
- What?
- Bring it to Marlow tonight for dinner.
915
01:07:33,684 --> 01:07:35,312
Ahh.
916
01:07:35,385 --> 01:07:37,513
Well, here's the thing.
917
01:07:37,588 --> 01:07:41,184
I'm trying to keep
my marriage happy and intact.
918
01:07:41,258 --> 01:07:43,727
Um, Laurie has to go away tomorrow.
919
01:07:43,794 --> 01:07:44,784
Right.
920
01:07:44,862 --> 01:07:50,426
And I need to be upstate
to look after the dogs,
take care of the farm.
921
01:07:50,501 --> 01:07:53,300
Keep the serfs in line?
922
01:07:55,005 --> 01:07:59,101
And to be fair, Marlow's
is kind of a young person's hangout.
923
01:08:01,945 --> 01:08:03,436
You know...
924
01:08:03,514 --> 01:08:05,176
You kind of...
925
01:08:05,249 --> 01:08:08,913
You dress them up,
you put them on fucking
Madison Square Garden's stage,
926
01:08:08,986 --> 01:08:12,081
you sort it all out,
and what do you get Abuse.
927
01:08:55,198 --> 01:08:58,066
Yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
928
01:08:58,135 --> 01:09:01,594
Yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah
929
01:09:02,272 --> 01:09:05,572
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah
930
01:09:05,642 --> 01:09:07,736
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
931
01:09:09,346 --> 01:09:12,646
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
932
01:09:12,716 --> 01:09:14,981
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
933
01:09:15,052 --> 01:09:16,281
Whoo!
934
01:09:16,353 --> 01:09:20,085
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah?
935
01:09:20,157 --> 01:09:23,025
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
936
01:10:06,570 --> 01:10:08,334
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
937
01:10:08,405 --> 01:10:09,600
Yeah, yeah, yeah
938
01:10:09,673 --> 01:10:12,336
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
939
01:10:13,477 --> 01:10:15,070
Yeah, yeah, yeah
940
01:10:15,145 --> 01:10:17,011
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
941
01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:20,812
Yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah
942
01:10:20,884 --> 01:10:24,013
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah
943
01:10:24,087 --> 01:10:26,818
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
944
01:10:27,724 --> 01:10:29,659
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
945
01:10:29,726 --> 01:10:31,058
Yeah, yeah, yeah
946
01:10:31,128 --> 01:10:34,656
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
947
01:11:44,134 --> 01:11:46,194
The red place used to be a...
948
01:11:46,269 --> 01:11:47,999
It was something else,
wasn't it?
949
01:11:48,071 --> 01:11:50,631
Yeah, it's a French restaurant,
and it's been, uh...
950
01:11:52,409 --> 01:11:54,435
But all these places,
they've all changed.
951
01:11:55,345 --> 01:11:57,177
It's New York.
Everything changes.
952
01:12:05,255 --> 01:12:07,451
What?
"It's New York, darling.
Everything changes."
953
01:12:07,524 --> 01:12:09,891
Well, it does.
Perpetual state of flux.
954
01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:11,451
Including us.
955
01:12:12,562 --> 01:12:14,053
Including you.
956
01:12:20,237 --> 01:12:22,069
So this is weird,
but I've got to roll.
957
01:12:22,139 --> 01:12:24,131
I've got to go.
958
01:12:24,207 --> 01:12:25,368
Take care of yourself, huh?
959
01:12:25,442 --> 01:12:27,809
Love you, dude.
Love you, James.
960
01:12:27,878 --> 01:12:30,143
I'll give you a call tomorrow, all right?
Yes, boss.
961
01:12:30,213 --> 01:12:32,045
Look after yourself.
Yes, boss.
962
01:12:32,115 --> 01:12:33,674
Drive safe.
I'm retired.
963
01:12:50,300 --> 01:12:52,895
Do you like talking about yourself?
964
01:12:52,969 --> 01:12:55,632
Like, is it fun to have someone
ask you these questions...
965
01:12:55,705 --> 01:12:59,574
and basically say,
"Consider your life
and put your life in a context...
966
01:12:59,643 --> 01:13:01,373
"that other people will understand"?
967
01:13:01,444 --> 01:13:04,380
I wish I could say, like,
"No, I find it so hard."
968
01:13:04,447 --> 01:13:07,542
Why would you want to say that?
I would think you'd want to say,
"I love it."
969
01:13:07,617 --> 01:13:10,314
No, because it just seems like,
again, you know...
970
01:13:11,555 --> 01:13:14,753
I know you think that you
should say you don't like doing it...
I don't like...
971
01:13:14,825 --> 01:13:17,818
but you seem
very comfortable with it.
I don't like boring interviews.
972
01:13:17,894 --> 01:13:21,592
So when I have to do interviews
and it's just like,
973
01:13:22,432 --> 01:13:24,401
"So did Daft Punk really play
in your house?"
Yeah.
974
01:13:24,467 --> 01:13:26,368
And it's, like, you know what...
975
01:13:27,437 --> 01:13:29,599
And we call that talk...
You gonna go talk about yourself?
976
01:13:29,673 --> 01:13:32,541
That's what we always joke.
"I gotta go talk about myself
for a half an hour."
977
01:13:32,609 --> 01:13:35,010
Um, that I find really boring.
978
01:13:36,079 --> 01:13:39,948
But I think
that underlying loneliness,
979
01:13:40,016 --> 01:13:42,713
or that underlying desire
to be understood,
980
01:13:42,786 --> 01:13:46,587
like to clarify, you know,
this endless kind of like...
981
01:13:47,891 --> 01:13:49,359
is pretty real.
982
01:13:50,360 --> 01:13:51,953
And...
983
01:13:54,865 --> 01:13:56,561
explaining...
984
01:13:59,736 --> 01:14:01,728
I want to...
You know what I mean?
985
01:14:01,805 --> 01:14:04,934
I want to explain sometimes.
Like, not everything.
986
01:14:05,008 --> 01:14:07,500
I don't want to get into, like,
"What's that song mean?"
987
01:14:08,745 --> 01:14:13,706
That stuff drives me a little bit crazy,
but explaining why,
explaining the position...
988
01:14:13,783 --> 01:14:16,685
I'm obsessed with the position,
like where this stuff is coming from.
989
01:14:16,753 --> 01:14:19,313
Like songs I like...
I like when songs are from a place.
990
01:14:19,389 --> 01:14:22,416
Not about something,
but from a place, from a moment.
991
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:34,128
I wake up and the phone is ringing
992
01:14:35,338 --> 01:14:38,934
Surprised, as it's early?
993
01:14:39,009 --> 01:14:43,572
And that should be the perfect warning
994
01:14:43,647 --> 01:14:47,584
That something's a problem
995
01:14:47,651 --> 01:14:51,144
To tell the truth, I saw it coming
996
01:14:52,022 --> 01:14:55,982
The way you were breathing
997
01:14:56,059 --> 01:14:59,291
But nothing can prepare you for it
998
01:15:00,864 --> 01:15:06,098
The voice on the other end
999
01:15:21,751 --> 01:15:24,949
The worst is all the lovely weather
1000
01:15:25,555 --> 01:15:30,118
I'm stunned it's not raining
1001
01:15:30,193 --> 01:15:33,493
The coffee isn't even bitter
1002
01:15:34,431 --> 01:15:38,198
Because what's the difference
1003
01:15:38,268 --> 01:15:42,399
There's all the work that needs to be done
1004
01:15:42,472 --> 01:15:46,910
It's late for revision
1005
01:15:46,977 --> 01:15:50,209
There's all the time and all the planning
1006
01:15:51,147 --> 01:15:55,710
And songs to be finished
1007
01:15:55,785 --> 01:15:59,586
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
1008
01:15:59,656 --> 01:16:04,185
And it's keeps coming
till the day it stops
1009
01:16:04,260 --> 01:16:08,163
- And it keeps coming
- And it keeps coming
1010
01:16:08,231 --> 01:16:12,498
And it keeps coming
till the day it stops
1011
01:16:12,569 --> 01:16:16,529
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
1012
01:16:16,606 --> 01:16:20,839
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
1013
01:16:20,910 --> 01:16:25,507
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
1014
01:16:25,582 --> 01:16:29,349
And it keeps coming
till the day it stops
1015
01:16:29,419 --> 01:16:32,218
I wish that we could talk about it
1016
01:16:33,423 --> 01:16:37,793
But there, that's the problem
1017
01:16:37,861 --> 01:16:41,093
With someone new I could have started
1018
01:16:42,332 --> 01:16:46,702
Too late for beginnings
1019
01:16:46,770 --> 01:16:49,569
You're smaller than my wife imagined
1020
01:16:50,807 --> 01:16:54,767
Surprised you were human
1021
01:16:54,844 --> 01:16:58,645
There shouldn't be this ring of silence
1022
01:16:58,715 --> 01:17:03,551
But what are the options
1023
01:17:03,620 --> 01:17:07,455
When someone great is gone
1024
01:17:07,524 --> 01:17:11,586
When someone great is gone
1025
01:17:11,661 --> 01:17:15,826
When someone great is gone
1026
01:17:15,899 --> 01:17:20,098
When someone great is gone
1027
01:17:20,170 --> 01:17:24,767
When someone great is gone
1028
01:17:24,841 --> 01:17:28,744
When someone great is gone
1029
01:17:28,812 --> 01:17:33,182
When someone great is gone
1030
01:17:33,249 --> 01:17:37,118
When someone great is gone
1031
01:17:37,187 --> 01:17:39,315
We're safe
1032
01:17:41,658 --> 01:17:44,958
For the moment
1033
01:17:46,596 --> 01:17:48,292
Saved
1034
01:17:50,033 --> 01:17:53,435
For the moment
1035
01:18:23,466 --> 01:18:27,130
I've always had this belief
that people or bands...
1036
01:18:27,203 --> 01:18:29,672
or whatever entities,
whatever you want to look at...
1037
01:18:29,739 --> 01:18:36,111
they're sort of remembered
for their collection of successes,
1038
01:18:36,179 --> 01:18:40,947
but they're sort of defined
by whatever is their singular failure.
1039
01:18:41,017 --> 01:18:44,044
This is kind of a sports example,
but Michael Jordan is remembered...
1040
01:18:44,120 --> 01:18:46,589
for all these great things he did
as a basketball player...
Right.
1041
01:18:46,656 --> 01:18:49,888
but I feel like
his singular failure was,
1042
01:18:49,959 --> 01:18:53,953
you know, his inability
to distance himself from competition.
1043
01:18:54,030 --> 01:18:55,623
That led to his gambling problem,
1044
01:18:55,698 --> 01:19:00,033
