Yay! I never clicked so fast. Love The 69 Eyes, First song I heard by them and fell in love with was Perfect Skin. 🙂🖤
Thank you! Ooh great song! I think the first one I heard was lost boys on viva la bam! So glad we finally got to see them live after all these years! And Jyrki was such a sweet dude! 🧛🏻♂️
@@RandomGothCouple I agree ! Lost Boys is amazing ! (also the movie) also Brandon Lee. Damn. They have so many great songs ( before the hair metal era).
My first 69 Eyes piece was "the chair" off some compilation. I quickly thought he sounded like a much MUCH deeper version of Dave Vanian...!
Just like the moon does, we rise & shine & fall, for you I rise & shine and crawl, victims aren’t we all.
Great interview guys, and thanks Lynn for asking about Brandon Lee & Lost Boys, I love hearing the story behind my favorite songs, and not many interviewers ask such questions.
Thank you! And I agree, I'm so glad Lynn asked that because his answer was amazing! Glad you enjoyed it 🧛🏻♂️
Great interview my darlings, the interaction was so comfortable and flowed nicely 🖤 🦇 🖤
Thanks! He was super down to earth and nice so immediately put us at ease! Plus we're so used to doing these interviews backstage at concerts it was a huge difference doing it in a quiet dedicated room! Glad you enjoyed it 🦇
Thank your for this captivating chat with one of the artists that influenced and mesmerized my life the most!🦇🖤🌙 You don't get to hear this typical old-school sound that often anymore, and it always makes me beyond happy that there are bands like The 69 Eyes who entrance modern times with the nostalgia that means so much to many people and with the melancholy only art can set to music and clothe into words. I agree that "Brandon Lee" is one of their most spellbinding creations, but I have to add "The Chair" and "Dance d'Amour" to my personal favourites!🖤🥀🩸 Anyways, thank you for asking such unusual and profound questions, especially those about his inspirations and his view on the subculture really intrigued me and made this interview so much better than most ordinary interviews you get to see somewhere else. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!🖤 Whenever I see people like both of you, and Jyrki of course, it makes me smile because it shows me that our spirit will never die, no matter how much the world around us withers in consumerism and superficiality.🙏🌹
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it! I agree, it does seem like the 'rock band' sound is going away in the sense that it's evolving in modern bands to incorporate so much of other genres. It's refreshing to see a band like the 69 eyes that just focuses on being a real rock band. And he gave us such incredible answers he really was a gem and a delight to spend time with! Seeing Dance D'amour at M'era Luna was truly an experience! 🧛🏻♂️
Very much enjoyed your Cemetery Confessions! Hugs.
Oh thank you so much! It was so much fun and they were a joy to speak to 🪦
@@RandomGothCoupleYes! Very glad you finally were able to do that. 😊 I'm glad I recommended them.
@@sgr1888 thanks so much for doing that! 🖤🦇
In 2019 my band served as an opening act for The 69 Eyes in Mexico city, after the sold out show i went to their dressing room and they all did the Lost boys "Michael" ritual but shouting my name until i finished a wine bottle and the party lasted all night, this is something i'll tell my chlldren if i get to be an old vamp 🍷🫀 new sub!
I just found your band dude! Hopefully you guys play the states soon! “Memories” has been on repeat for weeks!
@@Rikkrtreat glad you liked it man, we are recording new stuff, cheers 🍷 🦇
Cool to hear him say about not having much life experience yet,
And so used movies as inspiration
Reminded of how Robert Smith often used books as inspiration for particularly the Cure's earlier songs like Charlotte Sometimes or Killing an Arab
I agree! Incredibly endearing of him to be so open about it and to use his interests to fuel his art!
Such great movies and they inspired them to make such great music! 🦇
Yeah I feel like it's something alot of artists forget you can do! It's so exciting to think about writing a song about a movie you love it even your own take on a movie since people can take away different meanings from movies and songs 🦇
@@RandomGothCouple oh yes, for sure. Using the song to show your own unique interpretation of the story!
i found this band through cradle of filths dani filth came up in my search bar 69 eyes two horns up amazing band
Hearing a lot of association with cradle and the 69 eyes. Never expected that 😅 would have loved to see their Co headline tour! Thanks!
So nice to hear his point of view on some of the subjects like the outfit and song inspirations, you guys killed it again! 🦇🖤
Awh thanks Peetz! He was such a cool guy, extremely thankful he took the time to speak to us!
Just saw his concert in Gramercy Theatre!!!
i saw this band in hollywood, ca, back in 07. they opened for cradle of filth, my first time seeing cradle. i remember liking their performance. i kind of forgot about this band. im going to check out more of their music now.
Cradle and The 69 Eyes is such a random pairing! They just released a new album this year and it's great! Blessed be and Devils are my personal favourite albums but their whole catalogue is great!
Very cool interview. I've noticed that your guests really seem to be comfortable and open up.
I would like to give all the credit for that to Lynn. I think it helps that they see we're goths and we share interests and it's not a standard journalist speaking to them. But Lynn does a little Pre interview chat with all our guests while I set up equipment etc and I think that really helps set the vibe 🦇
He gave a good idea of what it means to be gothic, great interview.
And such a down to earth dude too. So nice to see. Thanks! 🪦
11:47 I think the same. I've watched Jyrki talk in many different interviews etc. And I have to say, he's a vibe. The kind of person I would like to know and have great convos with. It seems he's very down to earth.
I love this interview, the question about the story behind the songs from Lynn was so beautifully answered! Glad I could finally belatedly get to see this interview! I wanted to give it the reverence it deserves without interruption. What a beautiful person and a beautiful soul Jyrki has!
Fabulous interview! 🤘🏻
Thank youuu 🦇
Great interview❤
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! 🦇
@@RandomGothCouple i’ve watched basically every Jyrki interview under the sun and this one offered something new with the questions.🫶🏻
He is such a cool dude!
He was awesome! Super chill, very funny, a joy to speak with! Thanks for watching 🪦
I agree that we need more rock in gothic rock.
Yesss! There needs to be an in between gothic rock and death rock. And I think the 69 eyes perfectly strike that balance!
Thank you for the great interview! I am also from Finland, it would be great if you could have an opportunity to visit Hellsinki! I kinda found 69 Eyes while I was living in Japan, and their music has comforted me in the darkest hours... Great band, ❤
We definitely have to get to Finland one day. Can't belive we've gone this long without visiting tbh! So glad to hear that, they're an awesome band with beautiful music 🦇
Thank You Random Goth Couple!
Thank YOU 🧛🏻♂️
I love your outfit Lynn!!!!!!!
Awesome interview, I had to put a thumbs up to that, love this band’s music
That was amazing. I got yo see yhem when they came to to Portland Oregon USA. It was one of the best shows i have ever seen. I'm very happy that you guys got to interview him he is absolutely amazing. I love you guys very much❤
Awh thank you so much! He really is an awesome dude. Within seconds it was like chatting to an old friend!
Interview was fantastic..enjoy gothic history 🤟🏽
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it 🦇
Best interview ever both, I remember when Angels came out on preorder my mum surprised me by preordering it for my birthday. I still own that album and all the cd’s & dvds 🖤🖤🖤🖤
That's amazing! 🖤🖤🖤🦇
Congrats on 100K I love you guys🖤
Thank you so muchhhh! We will be doing a Livestream soon to celebrate so keep an eye on the youtube community tab and our Instagram! 🪦
Congratulations on the 100k! I absolutely love the Intro for this Series, the Road to 500k Begins!
Such great energy in this interview! Relaxed, but enough drive to keep things moving. Brilliant
He was so cool that it immediately put us at ease and it felt like just chatting to a friend. Such a great guy. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching 🦇
Its so awesome to watch this channel grow and take off and really see you guys develop your craft as content creators and get AWESOME opportunities like this!
Keep up the awesome work and looking forward to so much more!
(PS. Fingers crossed for you both that perhaps one day an interview with Dani Filth could come to fruition ❤️)
Maybe! It could happen! Cradle haven't been to Ireland in awhile so they're due a trip her.
But genuinely thank you 🖤 We appreciate every day the amazing opportunities we get because of our viewers. Crazy to think talking to a camera in our bedroom got us here but we're so thankful for it 🪦
Great job guys: it’s the perfect gift for all the lost boys on this channel! 🦇❤
Ahh we are so glad to hear that 🖤🦇🦇
I love the 69 Eyes. They are my favorite goth band. Lynn, you always look so fabulous! How do you do it?! 😻
This is a fantastic video! Goth vibes in motion! Love love love! Thank you Random Goth Couple for showing this amazing interview. Your outfits are incredible!
Awh thank you you're too kind! Happy you enjoyed it. They're a great band! 🧛🏻♂️
Enjoying these interviews. Well done, guys! 👏🖤🦇
Thanks so much Johnny! Have at least two more lined up this year (2 so far have fell through 😭) so there will be more coming! Glad you're enjoying them! 🪦
I’ve never heard of this band and I’m def checking them out after this interview.
It is so informative hearing about the band beginning.
Connor and Lynn you guys look fabulous as always.
Def enjoyed the M’era Luna fest video 🖤.
Thank you so much! I recommend checking out their album blessed be and then their new album Death of Darkness 🧛🏻♂️
@@RandomGothCouple thank you for the recommendation.
Pretty much enjoyed your interview. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Seeing Darkness as Beauty he said! Wonderful insightful statement! Thanks to you from OZ! 🖤🦘
He has such a fascinating outlook on life, even off camera he told us some funny stories about his time in Dublin and he really finds joy in small things. Such an awesome person! Thanks for watching 🧛🏻♂️
You guys look amazing!
Awh thank you! I was sweating so much during this interview idk how my makeup stayed on 😅
I think exactly the same way as Jyrki 69! Goth is seeing beauty in the darkness 😊
🖤🌹⚰️
Great done, thanks for this video❤
Thanks so much 🖤 🦇
"We are like two fingers...On the same hand"
We played a cover of "Still Waters Run Deep" in a Halloween festival here in Portugal, Santarem.
That was a great era of 69 eyes! brandon lee, wasting the dawn songs
Great interview again good on you both for looking out doing great interview for real goths always keep it real never be fake
Thanks so much! We have some more artists lined up for interviews so we hope people enjoy em! 🦇
I love your interviews and passion for all things from the darker shade of pale. Would be great to hear from Virgin Prines and De Press if poss. Hope to be at Mera Luna one day. Have reawakened 10 years now after doing the whole bitter pill paradox parent thing, and so its good to see the green shoots of revival having been so depressed trying to reawaken before when it seemed things had all but 'died' in the early 2000s. I digress and will shut the stuff up now. Love n lite Gzy.
thanks for uploading. i know nothing of this band other than someone wearing a 69 eyes shirt made fun of my friend for having autism. unfortunately that experience stuck with me and every time i think see the 69 eyes anywhere i think of that moment. it's nice to see they are people and to now be able to associate the 69 eyes to something other than that shitty experience.
That's awful but we're very glad to give you a positive association to replace that with!
Thank you guys for bringin this amazing artists and congrats on 100K greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷 🖤
Thanks so much! Live stream celebration this Saturday 🎉
I love the dark artists series. I get to learn more about goth music older and newer. I'm so glad this is here.
I’m go happy you guys interviewed him, the 69 eyes is truly what made me love goth music
That was awesome 🦇🦇🦇
So so glad you both are doing this.
Its golden. Very important and impressive youre dping these interviews in one location, on your channel, and with groups people may not know when yheir getting into the scene. Very happy for you finding and taking these opportunities.🖤
What a great guy ❤😎
We love him 🖤😎
My favorite band ever 🖤
nice and great interview, i enjoyed it, Jyrki 69 always a gentleman, i had the oportunity to meet him in 2010 when they played in Argentina and he was really nice (like the rest of the band)...cheers from Buenos Aires.
Super Interview, viele Interessante Fragen und tolle Antworten von Jyriki69.
Cool!
Thank you! 🪦
I have The 69 Eyes in My TH-cam playlist. They're PRETTY okay! The lead singer sounds like Peter Steele. What country is he from? He has an accent. 🤔🥰🤗💖😎🤘🏻🖤 My two first songs were Jerusalem and Gothic Girl! Thank-you, Conor and Lynn, for the interview! When I first saw Gothic Girl, I, LEGIT, thought it WAS Peter Steele from Type O Negative.
Jyrki and the rest of The 69 Eyes is from Finland 🙂
I wish it would rain. Here, I'm from Virginia, It's been a huge problem for the farm land. Everything's dry. It's been warm in Virginia for a few years now. It seems like it's getting worse. I truly missed the days. That we had rain and snow.😥
today is my birthday your videos all ways makes my day
Hope you had a great birthday!
He's right about the ost for the Lost Boys. It needs more "OOOPH". saying that though It's an incredible set piece for the era and goddamn it's got an oiled delicious, Tim Capello lashing that sax out of it. (His stuff with Gunship is glorious).. Also agree with the sunglasses aspect. I wear them probably 18 hours a day, everyday. Viewing a world though a darker lens with a reflective lens opens up Approachment of 90% people more entertaining. seeing themselves under a stone face of beard and well pampered hair they'll see their own guilt and f*ck off :P
p.s Conor reach out to me. I got some stuff for you and Lynn
The Lost Boys is my all time favorite movie and fun fact, it was released July 31st 1987 which is the day I was born
I love the video!!!!
Thank you Isaiah! 🦇
🤘
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
funny thing about "Gothic girl" the song was made as a joke at first i think Jyrki mentioned that in his own book "Kulkurin valssi" the record company liked that song so much they wanted more similar songs from them that's pretty much how they went from a "Glam rock" band to a Gothic Rock band.
Love you Jyrki 🖤
All the love for Jyrki 🖤

🤘
Hey random goth couple
Yeah, drummers are not into Goth stuff. We suffered that. One of the reasons we have almost no shows now. Venues want drummers. Drummers dont want this.
Jyrki 69 proves you don't have to wear make up to be Goth
I'm still waiting for her onlyfans 🤐
