Genuinely one of the most underrated bands in British rock history and both Charlie Simpson and Alex Westaway are unsung geniuses.
Alex Westaway is famous, thanks to the band - GUNSHIP . she has millions of auditions
@@sbxdkjth She?...Alex Westaway is a man 🤔

The most frustrating thing about trying to be in a band, is needing to find other people that want the same thing at the same time.
:/
Oh yeah.... so many relate
miss Fightstar soo much
I genuinely feel like Fightstar was almost a way for Charlie to have a complete blow out. A heavier, darker way of letting out alot of emotions, thoughts which (may?) have built up. I absolutely loved them and it's a massive shame they don't really get the recognition these days...
Its a shame.......but Fight Star need to come back!!!!!
Great interview, glad you've all found a happy medium in your career, so long as you keep coming back with fantastic music we as fans can have no complaints.👏👏👏👏
Great interview!...I love Fightstar and Charlie's solo career too. It's awesome to see interviews like that!
Keep the good work! =)
She said, honey does this road Lead anywhere? Cause anywhere is fine, If I'm with you - omg, damn fucking good lyrics
An inspiration to us all
CHARLIE IS A BEAST!! :D
Is that the Manchester Ritz? I was right at the front in the middle of the balcony. Such an awesome view and sounded great there. Epic show.
+Mike Oxlong Yup sure is!
Awesome :D
He’s just so cool 🤟🏻
Charlie rules
I want to have a career in music in the future so this is really inspirational!
+J2OE Same but Charlie only managed it cos of his lucky streak in Busted. It's not really an option nowadays unless you know someone who will force your music into mainstream media (e.g. Royal Blood. Good band but nothing special and only famous because they know Arctic Monkeys personally and someone high up in the BBC who pushed them out there a lot). Not saying don't do it though, you never know. Just better to do it for the love of it and work it around something else.
+Mike Oxlong Sure, Charlie had Busted and did remarkably well for himself (allegedly), but disregarding that, he raised an excellent point that every single other person in Fightstar can't sustain themselves financially with just the band alone, and they all have separate jobs (Charlie's being Busted, i'm assuming). So, anyone wanting to have a crack at music should definitely, DEFINITELY do it, but will realise that they need to sustain themselves in alternative ways too.
Glenn Rice Exactly my point :)
Mike Oxlong I enjoy your thumbnail profile picture, is it the bear from that skiing game on Windows 98?
Glenn Rice It is indeed the skiifree yeti. Only difference is he has a raging boner.
Does anyone know how to find that cover they did of Am 180 by Granddaddy?
Literally spells out why he re-joined busted, i.e for money. Don't blame him though and he has fightstar for creative output.
To be fair though as commercially viable as it might be in terms of the Pop-Rock / Pop-Punk field Busted's latest album is actually rather respectable, certainly sound alot more authentic then they did in their younger days.
Nah if he wanted money he would have joined McBusted. Fightstar are awesome but Charlie rejoined Busted to finally right the creative wrongs he experienced when they first started out. Half Way There is the sound he always wanted Busted to be back in the day.
@@adamknight7041 I fucking love that last album, think half way there is a bit outdated and doesn't bring anything new to the table in terms of pop rock.
Had he joined McBusted he would have earned millions and they'd have done 2 albums before going back to the two band format but Charlie had to genuinely enjoy what he was going to do and that would have decimated the respect he has built. He's not a sell out, he just makes the music he wants to play at the right time. Also he did have a son coming along the way. He can't be an absentee father. If he loves the music and has the opportunity, why should he say no? He still works on his solo projects and can provide a comfortable life for his family. He has finally come full circle and said when he was younger he used to get so worried about other people's perception of the music he plays. Now he doesn't care.
Also I know someone who worked with Busted on their production team of the label in the early 2000s. He confirmed that all three wanted a heavier sound.
I think Charlie's issue was with the record labels more than his band mates
@@dassteam I disagree I thought Half Way There was like a breath of fresh air because of the fact that it sounded like a late 90's / early 00's record which is now considered old-school. It was like an anti Pop record against the type of popular music in the contemporary market.
I love some of these songs but don't know their names. Can someone help?
Sink with the Snakes
Dive
Overdrive
All from their last album before the reforming of Busted.
You waited about 6 months too long to post this video
+Brandon Lewis Sorry, had to get approved from all the right folk!
