I wonder why he’s sooo confident but on his other project we don’t see anything. If it’s only for the « magic » and lore of the projet or to protect his private life
His speaking voice. Wow. Immediately when he started talking, my mind was like “Yep, that’s him.” That’s the speaking voice that belongs to that beautiful singing voice. Thanks for uploading/sharing. ☺️
I understand the whole wanting to be “anonymous” for the sake of people respecting his privacy… but honestly, hearing him speak about his music makes me appreciate it even more than I already did… I feel a whole new level of connection to what he is conveying through his writing… love Gemma’s voice as well… both very talented
This is crazy. Especially how these are unearthing at this time specifically. Its almost like a reward for those in the know. Thank you for archiving all of this
@@darcystcorner2580 yeah and they dropped stuff on their Spotify page not too long ago too. There's definitely some elaborate thing going on and I'm so excited to see everyone piece it together
For those who may be thinking that he was acting like a jerk in this interview - I can assure you he was not. Here's what he was actually doing: 1. Obviously, we know very little about him, but what I do know from what I've heard/seen, he is very sarcastic and witty. This is his humor style lol and it fits him perfectly. 2. This BBC interviewer was being incredibly aggressive (in my opinion) and Vessel (Leo, I feel bad saying his name) took charge and set boundaries using humor. He actually handled himself incredibly well for how young he was here. Brilliantly done and I am very impressed. He is incredibly balanced, intelligent, and well-spoken.
I love this ❤ thank you for sharing this treasure. "and if you give us some love.. we'll give you some chocolate!!" 😆..bless him, he sounds so awkwardly cute! 🤭😍
Guys this is one of the most treasured pieces of audio. For my daughter will hopefully find this message. That I will love you forever know matter how far I am away from her I will always be in the wind running through her hair the sun that beats on her skin. The bird that squawk back. That’s me. The energy just passed on. Forever leaving you timestamps and trails of goodies. this one you better listen through. ❤ i love your mom just as much as you even though she won’t ever feel this way again for me.

You’ll find more lost within the depths of this account and these playlists but I hope you find this comment one day. 🕊️
Oh my, hearing his voice is so strange. I thought he sounded strong& confident, there is no mistaking that voice though, is there. Can you imagine the people there, what they will be thinking now 😳
Idk, I think that they both pretty young, shy and inexperienced. I can definitely hear that he feels uncomfortable, but the questions were kinda strange, very relationship-centered. now, through the years and thanks to his new stuff it is kinda painful to liten to.
I honestly would listen to them make a podcast years down the road when everything has settled and whatnot, maybe even talk about music at some point They seem like very chill people too which is nice, the kind of people youd bump into by a pub and have a little chat about mundane things, never to remember that interaction again
I don't know why, but I'm surprised at his speaking voice. different from what I expected, but it's really beautiful. Gemma's speaking voice is so pretty too. I can definitely see even more reasons for the wearing the mask now. first thing they want to talk about is the music and first thing they get asked about is their relationship...
yeah I really don’t get why the interviewers started with such personal questions right away… too in medias res, very unprofessional and it disturbs the flow of the conversation. maybe, if you build up the trust, you can lead the questions in that direction but this was a hard yuck.
"You're clearly not a depressed person" yeah cause you can TOTALLY tell somebody has depression just by LOOKING at them 🙄😒 have we learned nothing from Robin Williams? This interviewer is ridiculous
It’s true. I’m depressed and I appear as the happiest person in the room. It’s easy to put on a face and pretend it’s all ok. Then you realize this isn’t who you really are and it’s just a character you’re portraying. I recently moved halfway across the world and finally i’m facing the demons that always haunted me. It’s incredibly difficult but i’m learning so much about myself. Creating myself and letting that go out into the world. Finally being me.
@@SleepyHallow143 I'm not sure we are talking about the same person. Robin Williams suffered depression and anxiety and died as a result of asphyxia due to hanging himself. Regardless of that the point of my comment was to say that you cannot tell whether a person is depressed or not just by looking at them and it's ridiculous of the interviewer to assume so. Depression has many faces.
Ironically enough this is all available on the internet to everyone! I guess i just keep stumbling into the right corners of the internet lol Glad that everyone is enjoying the music as much as i do.
def why no interviews and anonymity are their thing now. obvi not counting drumeo but luckily that was focused on technicals and the art, not the person.
Ah, interviewers...they suck. But yeah, there's no hiding that they were together. She sounds very innocent and, yes, he's setting boundaries left and right. I see that he prefers to eschew interviews entirely. (PD I do want chocolate)
@@Ghostwith_themost I'm a very recent fan of you know who, and I've been wondering about that. Knowing that I'm just a few months older than him feels SO strange to me. Thanks for answering!
In conversation her voice sounds a bit childish.))) This is unexpected for me.😅 I don't know how old he was at that time, but his voice is just the bomb!!!💥👍🏻
I’m sure she’s been mentioned in SOME songs but definitely not all 😂 this was his high school/emerging adult relationship and he’s 30 or 31 now. He’s had at least one or two other girlfriends after Gemma. Gemma moved on and is married with children.
Despite popular belief most of his songs aren't about love or relationships. I get very perplexed about how people immediately go to that. If you really look at the lyrics it's easy to see what he is talking about and a lot of people have trouble interpreting them for some reason. It's always boggled my mind, and with that being said yes songs are open to interpretation you can make it about whatever you want, this the beauty of music, but i like to look at a song for what it is and feel the writers emotion, not reflect it on to me. Which is complete against what Leo has said he wants LOL but that's how i am.
@@Ghostwith_themostNice. I think great artists draw upon a whole wealth of experiences, both from their own lives and what they observe going on around them in the lives of their friends, family, and, no doubt, the wider world, to create something that will resonate with people. That this and 'other music' touches so many people on an emotional, and even intuitive level, reveals the artist's deeper sensitivities and reflects a more than average ability, or gift, to be able to connect with others and the world around them. I guess it's inevitable that listeners and appreciators will project their own struggles onto the artist, and maybe even feel a little disappointed if the artist does not really suffer as they feel they do, but art is art, and art is rarely THE truth - it's a reflection of many truths, shared with an intention to move and inspire those who enjoy it and, in majority of cases, are also comforted by it. In other words, 'depressed' sounding music doesn't mean that the creator is a natural depressive, for example. That's certainly not my impression of this particular artist at all. The same probably applies to relationships in a similar way. It's a reflection of all or many relationships. I am a huge fan of his work though, and continue to be moved by it. It adds something good and enriching to life. Thanks 😊🙏
@@a1rabidfox341 Of course there are a few. However a lot of the songs are about drugs, alcoholism, insomnia, loss/grieving, and relationship struggles with family and others. And he said it himself, he wears the mask as a barrier so you don't project his experiences on the to the songs, he wants you to make the songs have their own meaning to you based on whatever you have been through.
So many questions after hearing this……..will have to give it another go. Among other things…as much as I love Leo and everything he created, he came off sounding like a bit of a douche in this interview!? Maybe it’s just me! lol
@Bex101-sj8ec I think he was just annoyed with the host trying to dig into his personal life. The host trying to cause a bit of drama right off the bat to spice up the interview sort of. I could see why - I feel like he thought Gemma was being attacked and jumped in to defend in a way.
Too funny……..I just gave part 1 another listen and you are right! Definitely annoyed with host……good for him! Lol HOWEVER……..nah, I won’t say it! lol Great surprise to come home to when logging on after work! Thank you for continuing to find and share such amazing material with us! Much appreciated 😊
Well if I were to have a huge opportunity to promote the project me and my partner worked on and the only thing the interviewer is interested in is our relationship, I’d very much be annoyed
Leo: confident, sets boundaries, intelligent, well spoken, witty. And a voice like butter.
Interviewer: giant bellend.
Interviewer: twat
I wonder why he’s sooo confident but on his other project we don’t see anything. If it’s only for the « magic » and lore of the projet or to protect his private life
"We don't know much about you guys". Prophetic words indeed.
I feel like a victorian man seeing ankles for the first time
😂😂😂
Love your analogy!!! 🤭😁
I just snorted so hard at this fucking comment pahahah made my day
I’m blushing over here
Lol no that is what is feels like😅
"It's really obvious cause I'm so enthusiastic about life and everything it has to give." 😆I love that dry humor.
There are so many common themes in his older music, and his newer music. He's been writting about tragedy for a long time.
That got me thinking we all should know about blacklit canopy, so we can appreciate even more his art ❤️🩹
I now need him to do an audiobook. His voice is so soothing 🥺
His speaking voice. Wow. Immediately when he started talking, my mind was like “Yep, that’s him.” That’s the speaking voice that belongs to that beautiful singing voice. Thanks for uploading/sharing. ☺️
“You’re making it sound like we’re married, but we AREN’T.” Goodness…his speaking voice is better than I expected.
I was not ready 😳😳 I knew it was gonna be deep but wow.
That made me laugh soo hard, the poor girl sitting right next to him lol
God I love his dry sense of humor 🤣
this is the longest amount of time we have heard them speak ... kinda surreal to hear tbh very interesting comparing their speaking/singing voices
This is like witnessing the Big Bang
Exactly how I felt. I was like…oh…interesting. Very origin story-esque
I understand the whole wanting to be “anonymous” for the sake of people respecting his privacy… but honestly, hearing him speak about his music makes me appreciate it even more than I already did… I feel a whole new level of connection to what he is conveying through his writing… love Gemma’s voice as well… both very talented

The deep desire to show up to an ST show with a sign that says "Where is the chcolate??"

The way he sings Mud Angel. That's him.
That's my favorite Blacklit song.
You can tell he's very sophisticated and has a broad vocabulary

Strong and confident if he hides behind a mask? Come on, he's obviously an introvert, which is ok of course
Idk, I think that they both pretty young, shy and inexperienced. I can definitely hear that he feels uncomfortable, but the questions were kinda strange, very relationship-centered. now, through the years and thanks to his new stuff it is kinda painful to liten to.
@@sexandtheswissYes, I think he is an introvert. We can't always be the life and soul of the party!
I honestly would listen to them make a podcast years down the road when everything has settled and whatnot, maybe even talk about music at some point
They seem like very chill people too which is nice, the kind of people youd bump into by a pub and have a little chat about mundane things, never to remember that interaction again
Such a huge Bon Ivor influence to BC's music. That's a good thing btw.
Yes! I hear so much Justin Vernon in his falsetto

"You're clearly not a depressed person" yeah cause you can TOTALLY tell somebody has depression just by LOOKING at them 🙄😒 have we learned nothing from Robin Williams? This interviewer is ridiculous
Yes, the interviewer annoyed me with that silly statement.
Robin died of from late Parkinson’s disease and paranoia which led to depression. Depression wasn’t the sole cause but a side affect.
@@SleepyHallow143the point still stands
