00:00 Bonjour.
00:01 Bonjour.
00:02 Bonjour.
00:03 Oh, you speak French.
00:04 Un peu, un peu.
00:05 Not true.
00:10 I think it's…
00:11 They're all very personal.
00:12 This just doesn't have any heartbreak.
00:15 So it's a different style of personal.
00:17 It delves into different feelings versus just heartbreak.
00:21 I think it's my favorite.
00:22 It's definitely the best stuff I've written.
00:25 The production on it is my favorite so far.
00:27 Yeah, it's my favorite record.
00:28 Yes, it speaks of a couple of things.
00:34 It speaks of that, of her, and also enjoying now
00:37 instead of always listening to what society tells you to do.
00:41 And I try to have a balance in the song of both of those.
00:45 She agrees.
00:46 She was very happy that you have to write songs from personal experience.
00:49 I don't think I suffer-suffer.
00:54 I definitely have moments where I feel what I think is anxious.
00:58 So yeah, it definitely comes from that kind of spot.
01:01 And also being able to talk to people who do suffer big time with it
01:06 and just being able to tell them that I'm there for them or whatever.
01:10 That's where Meltdown comes from.
01:11 I also wanted to make it a very fast song
01:14 because it really gets across the actual tempo of how you feel.
01:19 Instead of writing a song, you know, most songs of anxiety are written from a ballad
01:25 or a slow piano ballad or whatever, where I was like,
01:28 I really want to get across how it actually feels.
01:31 And it's fast.
01:32 No anxiety when I was younger.
01:34 I just, I was having too much fun.
01:36 I don't know, for me anyway.
01:37 Like some people have anxiety early, some people, and grow out of it,
01:42 and never grow out of it.
01:43 It's relative.
01:44 But no, for me, probably in the last five, six years maybe.
01:49 And the pandemic was anxious, wasn't it, for everyone.
01:52 Not that I know of.
01:57 No one told me.
01:58 So unless they're planning something behind my back, I don't know.
02:01 You know, from a young age, you know, I had to learn a lot very young.
02:05 And that's, I feel like it's held me in good stead for now.
02:09 All of it.
02:13 Not the album in total.
02:15 St. Louis song or two maybe.
02:17 Yeah, when I get, I need to get the link off the record label.
02:20 Because I have it in like a song here and that message in the song there.
02:24 I just need to pull it all together.
02:26 No, not at all.
02:31 I'm happy for him.
02:32 He is flying and he works hard and he's got great music.
02:35 So good for him.
02:36 He's a good guy.
02:37 Yeah, I am indeed.
02:42 He likes to kiss me all the time for some reason.
02:44 We've been friends for one to about five years.
02:47 Just as he was getting his, I don't want to say his career up and running.
02:51 But very early on in his career, I wrote to him on Instagram.
02:56 Told him that I really enjoyed his music.
02:58 And then from then on, we met up for a beer.
03:01 And then that was it.
03:02 We were just really good mates straight away.
03:05 Yeah, we have a lot in common.
03:07 We have a very similar sense of humor.
03:09 We like to drink and we like to talk shit.
03:12 And we're very good at all of them.
03:14 We very rarely sing together.
03:16 The times that we have sung together were all public facing.
03:20 We usually just sit in the pub and we're not counting on it.
03:23 But it would be great to have a song that we both love to release.
03:28 We have written songs together before, but not very good.
03:32 I don't know if I'm confused.
03:38 My name might get confused.
03:40 The Priest, that's an interesting one.
03:42 He's an interesting character.
03:45 And the rugby player, no, I don't know if I would.
03:48 I wonder in what capacity I get confused.
03:50 Because have you seen The Priest, Neil Horan?
03:53 He doesn't look anything like me.
03:55 Yeah, I love selfies.
04:01 In the toilet, no way.
04:03 For obvious reasons, because it's very strange and weird.
04:06 And if I did that, I'd get arrested.
04:08 But no, I take selfies just outside the door of the toilet.
04:12 I'm used to it now. It's been 13 years.
04:14 So I've taken pictures in most places, apart from toilets.
