I hadn’t dropped one in so many years, that I really don’t know how long it had been, then I picked up my acoustic, after Justin did it, and dropped my pick in within less than a minute. 😄
You are missing out big. Look up Love is only a feeling, Easter is Cancelled, Motorheart, Nobody can see me cry...Speed of the Nite time is lush and beautiful and that Epi is ♡♡
It's so weird that as a teenager I really disliked the darkness because I just a moody kid who took life too seriously. now I'm watching every video of yours on TH-cam. Apologies from past me .your video and music is great 💜
Dude. These podcasts got me through a bout of COVID, recently. So, thanks for that. I dipped in, and just loved the analysis of music, and songs that I love. Or hate. I fell into a delirious black hole of sick...and woke, delirious, to you periodically. It was like living in a Dali painting, man. Very cool.
Congratulations on 200k subscribers. Your channel has certainly been a delightful discovery for me and I’ve been binge watching your content since, so thank you for the entertainment!
First thank you so much for doing this. It's absolutely delightful! Second: someone asked about Beato but would you do a be nice with Pat Finnerty on a "What makes this song stink?" Much love from the PNW.
@@JustinHawkinsRidesAgain thank you for your reply. Totally know that but I meant a longer and more in depth back and forth between the two of you. Anyway cheers!
Rick Beato would be great, but I really want to see a What Makes This Song Stink crossover, with Pat Finnerty. Now THAT would be entertaining. You could talk about newer Coldplay and Weezer songs.
I’ve been listening to The Darkness most of the day, today (while sorting out other records - long job!) and being the geek I am, they were played in order. It’s quite the listen, seeing how the band has progressed and dare I say matured. I absolutely adore The Darkness… and Justin Hawkins Rides Again. Good health to you and the band, Justin. Cheers!👍🏻
Justin. In about 2010/2011 I was working at an Advertising Agency in London. For our Christmas Party we recorded a version of Band Aid's "Will They Know It's Christmas?" in a studio in East London. Low and behold you turned up! (Because I think you were a friend of our Creative Director Andy). Can you remember? I regret not saying hello now...
Thanks; I love Taylor’s music, Red Light Fever was what I was listening to none stop around when I got married, which contrary to everybody’s dream-like ideas of a wedding is (or can be) just about the most stressful thing a couple can do aside from maybe moving house, and songs like Hell to Pay were just absolutely epic and in part summed up how my wife and I felt, and the relief of when it was over and we finally got to just enjoy a bit of time going away alone. Get the Money was also a great album that deserves wider recognition. But, really really hope you can do ‘Bob Quit His Job’ from the KOTA EP! My son loves that song 😎
This is my new favourite channel! Our opinions are aligned Justin. PS when The Darkness came to NZ a few years ago, it was sensational and I was partially deaf for days…just the way it should be! 🤘
G'day Justin, I'm really enjoying the channel, you are a very interesting and engaging person. How do you see the future popularity of rock/metal/punk? Most rock festivals these days seem to be of bands of 10+ years or older, is this just a poor observation on my part or a sign of a decaying genre?
Reminds me of the Billy Joel quote “when he realized he was making dinner reservations in his head when he sang Just the Way You Are, he stopped performing it.
Hi Justin, I just found out from the old ball and chain you guys are coming to Melbourne. Two tickets to Tuesday night have now been purchased. Can't wait to see you and the boys rock our socks off.
Congratulations for 200k+ subscribers. OF COURSE! Your knowledge of music (writing, arrangement, technique, production, rock history, I could go on...) is outstanding and I enjoy your careful, kind, and spot-on humorous delivery. You speak of things contemporary and also historic. I am around your age and am thankful for growing up with my parents' rock - Led Z, Jimi, Fleetwood, Doors, Prog bands and such; am also thankful for us 80s skater/arty kids discovering NOT our parents' rock and going back a few years and getting into the Misfits, Stooges, Bad Brains, Velvet Underground, Wire, etc. while also getting into what kind of rocked for us at the time (Cult and Fugazi come to mind). Of all of the contemporary bands I listen to while running at night (mild-mannered child psychologist zooming through the neighborhood with Idles, Viagra Boys, King Gizzard, Wet Leg, Oh Sees, etc. in zee earbuds), you seem to have similar notes and delights in the discovery of them. Excellent channel and so happy to have found your unique voice on rock things present and past!
It's impressive that you are able to bend 11s on an acoustic guitar to that degree. Also playing solos on it as well with the speed and ease you do. Good job Justin 👍🏻
Everyday, your cheeky videos make someone's day better. And I reckon, a LOT of someone's. I love how you talk posh and then mix it up with 'ere, why are you dressed like.....' in a Mick Jagger meets an "On the Buses" kinda way....day made.....again....Happy 200k!!
This channel snuck onto my youtube suggestions and hell yeah glad the darkness are back, glad you are doing well and the rest of the band are good, loved you guys with the first album, then I admit I thought you split up. so you slipped into my nostalgia brain, like golden eye on the N64, then you are back. :D awesome...i've also subscribed.. ok bye take care :)
You're an incredible person. I love what you do. If you start selling t shirts I think you should have one that says "What would you do?". Thanks for all of the great content.
So glad I was not slurping my tea over the work laptop when the plec dived down the sound hole 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Done it so many times and I can never get the bugger out. I always have to ask my other half to do it. She has the knack!! Great stuff as always Sir Justin of Hawkins 😊 (PS Not even seen the rest of the video yet)
Hey Justin, just to let you know my daughter got married at the weekend ,great day ! The wedding band finished with " I believe in a thing called love" a rockin`` version it was too !
You have made me laugh incredulously today, I just watched your wonderful video about "Killing in the name of" and you lost a plectrum in your sound hole and proceeded with your marvellous King Kong impression then too. Epic stuff!
Hey Justin, I absolutely love what you're doing. I really enjoyed "I believe in a thing called love" when it came out but I was a kid back then and didn't think to look further into your music. A couple decades later I find your youtube channel and it turns out your band is exactly what I've been looking for. I'm just starting to get into your albums now but I'm having a lot of fun doing so. Thank you for doing this and keep up the great work. P.S. I'm a drum teacher currently teaching my city's children how to play your stuff and it is going over extremely well!
That’s actually sinew and gristle from the faces Justin melted with the additional flourishes he’s been adding to the end of his intro jingle. Respect.
Before i watch todays video i saw the original believe in a thing called love music video. i didnt realize how much was in the remake. still to this day one of the best songs for me. love the guitar licks. you guys rock and thanks.
and now i see the its relevant to todays video haha. i was like ohhhh thats why he holds a sausage the older video... epic. even when he comes out of the door like when he came out of the closet. also how you came out of the bath lol. so funny
Speaking of Rick Beato, he just did an interview with Maynard who spoke all about keeping your body healthy in order to preserve your voice. You might find the interview quite interesting if you haven’t watched it yet.
OMG! HOW have I missed the FNM episode?! Sacre Bleu! Thank you for your daily updates, Justin, it's a lil ray of light in The Darkness of 'these days' (see what I did there?!) 😸
Plectrum retrieval tip: stick some Blu-tak on the end of a pencil then you can easily reach, grab and retrieve the plectrum from the sound hole. Job done.
Hey, Justin! First things first. Sorry about my english. I'm a spanish professional musician. In 2003 I listened to "I believe in a thing called love" for the first time, I was on my twenties then. I loved Queen, Zeppelin and all that Rock music. In my 16th birthday my parents gave me Queen's "Innuendo" as a present and that is my favourite LP even today. I remember hearing about Freddie's death in the news and feeling as bad as if he were a member of my family. I remember I was almost driven to tears. Since Freddie is dead I love to believe The Darkness is the perfect replacement for post-Innuendo Queen. I would love if you could have been singing with Queen at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. At the time I wasn't a fan of yours, but now I can say with pride I love you. Keep the good work, there's a lot of people that love you for what you are. Again, sorry about my english.
Justin.. I just wanted to own-up to having miss judged you! ** Great Video ** By the way, Still have my copy of Permission to Land. Hope to catch you live in the future 🎸🎸🤘🤘👍👍
Hey Justin, if I ever drop my pick in an acoustic guitar I use BluTack on the end of a drumstick to retrieve it, quicker than shaking it around for ages. 😊
Let me try this out...shake the guitar I already have in my hands for 10 seconds...or get up off the couch, find some blue tac and grab a drum stick, pull off a bit of blue tac, attach it to the stick, then dig around in my guitar for 7 seconds. As a drummer and a school teacher I'm usually not far away from a drum stick or blue tac but this still seems like a colossal waste of time.
@@kanesanders6669 You really get your pick back in ten seconds? Consider yourself lucky. BTW, as a school teacher you are a colossal waste of time, but it probably pays your bills. 🙂
@@marshallgibson8872 Obviously I said 'drum stick' cause he's in a band, I sometimes use a pencil, it doesn't happen that often to make a big deal out of it.
Love the channel, love The Darkness - willing to post you a tiewrap or a piece of velcro to tie that orange cable up to the back of the mic boom. Let me know.
I was singing along to "I believe in thing called love" in a mall store today as it was on the store's feed. Couldn't keep up to your range and said out loud, "wow what range". Then like a verse later this 25-year-old (ish) girl walks up to me, stares at me, and hits every note. She walked away and said nothing.
Hi Justin' , congrats on having so many subs, I love your show.,it's one of my favorite podcasts along with Emma Kenny's self coined Crime Cult, Count Dankula...and Jonesy's Jukebox which I wish I was famous enough to be on..especially as my band the "Art Gray Noizz Quintet" just did a west coast tour. Of course it's the public's fault we're not more popular 'coz not enough of them like us.They've kind of ganged up against us without realizing but we know ignorance is no excuse...Anyway, keep up the good work..Stu Art Gray...
Got this ldea in my head at the moment that everything is story people places things actions thoughts events prose poetry song all telling stories... Thanks for the stories.
WRT the 'Grid' question, I distinctly remember the Quireboys getting a new drummer in, around the time they were starting to get record company traction, because the old one couldn't play to click track in the studio \m/
christmas seems a small potatoes kind of thing for original music, how about partly covers of originals, like, bad news 'cashing in on christmas', spinal tap 'christmas with the devil'... could be almost as good.
@@kirkwilson8738 yah, but most people only have a few original seasonal songs as it is, trying to do a full album would be like trying to force a fart after several mugs of coffee. the other seasons and holidays perhaps... one a month for special days... can you imagine him doing something for international talk like a pirate day? maybe he can raid adam ants closet. doing one a month means less pressure for a whole bunch of songs for one holiday. maybe 12 days of a song a day, epiphany rolls around, 'on the 12th day of christmas i wish i hadn't agreed to this'.
Got a little excited when you said you filmed a faith no more vid. Faith no more are one of my all time favourite bands and Mike Patton is a god! Can't wait for that one. Thanks Justin 😁
Hi Justin, I'm a new subscriber and I really love your channel, mostly for revisiting songs from the time when I first started to really get into rock (and music in general). Congrats on your 200k subscribers! I've been thinking recently that I'd love to see your take on The National and why their music is so polarizing. I find it really confusing. To me, this band is a lot like bananas: they're there, you like them, but you're not overly crazy about them, they're your comfort food, and then suddenly you find there's an entire group of people who hate them with an unexplicable passion and you just don't understand why. Wonder what you think about them. Cheers
Hi Justin I was at the Dublin gig at in February and loved every second of it. Been a fan since I can remember and a big fan of the channel as well. Now for the question. What is your funniest memory from being in the studio over the years? Love the channel and your opinions on music. Keep it up!
These are great to watch while isolating!!. Justin -Re enunciation - you always come across very well educated. Did you have elocution lessons while waiting to become a 'rock star', or did you always have a good command of English? (If only I could be half as articulate)..!
What are your views on the vocal recording process nowadays? Do you think they should be all in one take? I saw an interview where page outlined the chopping of vocals as part of the issue with the new production. Great videos keep them up!
The trick with the old pick-in-the-guitar snafu is to first invert the guitar so the pick is at the top of the body Then, its close to the sound hole and you can jump it out easily.
![บังเอิญมันได้อ่ะ - แอน อรดี [OFFICIAL MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/9fwjammKY4A/mqdefault.jpg)
Two proposals for the drinking game: 2 shots for the word oeuvre and 3 shots for when Justin rolls the letter R at the beginning of a word.
5 shots for every diss of Chris Martin that is couched in a compliment to Coldplay’s ability to be mainstream successful.
1 shot for every ‘th/f’ inversion when he speaks 👍🏻
funny
@@bobbyroot6140 NOOOooooo!! We don't mention that! Lest he stops and that would be....truly awful.
Floor
Love Justin, he is brilliant and captures Monty Python and Mick Jagger at the same time!
No one can do this! David St Hawkins rides again!
The patron saint of quality fuckwear?
So happy to see that after 25years of playing I'm still bound to drop my pick down the sound hole. Cheers J
I hadn’t dropped one in so many years, that I really don’t know how long it had been, then I picked up my acoustic, after Justin did it, and dropped my pick in within less than a minute. 😄
That's why I learned to finger pick. Lol.
Haha, my 2 year old thinks that picks belong down that hole
@@R1zla that's so cute! Helping clean up lol
Leave it in there & grab another one, you’ll always know where to find one.
I don't know a single The Darkness song, however, I love the daily video from Justin! Thank you for all the love you put into our daily dose, Cheers!
you should absolutely go and give their first 2 albums a listen! they're true modern classics the whole way through :)
You are missing out big. Look up Love is only a feeling, Easter is Cancelled, Motorheart, Nobody can see me cry...Speed of the Nite time is lush and beautiful and that Epi is ♡♡
Listen to them, got some absolutely fantastic tracks.
Permission to land was one of my favourite records growing up.
Permission to land is a masterpiece. Seriously, have a listen. You won't regret it.
Bullshit....
It's so weird that as a teenager I really disliked the darkness because I just a moody kid who took life too seriously. now I'm watching every video of yours on TH-cam. Apologies from past me .your video and music is great 💜
"it's the Queen's English innit" 🤣
Dude. These podcasts got me through a bout of COVID, recently. So, thanks for that. I dipped in, and just loved the analysis of music, and songs that I love. Or hate. I fell into a delirious black hole of sick...and woke, delirious, to you periodically. It was like living in a Dali painting, man. Very cool.
Is that why you’ve not been on Talk TV ? 😉
Lol. I’ve been on…but I was off a week, hallucinating with Justin.
Congratulations on 200k subscribers. Your channel has certainly been a delightful discovery for me and I’ve been binge watching your content since, so thank you for the entertainment!

He's already been on an episode, one of Pat's first. That's how I discovered this channel, granted it was a minor cameo and Pat was very small then.
@@greensmithbackup6774 Ohh yes, you are right, I actually forgot about that... A full episode would be great though, rather than just a cameo.
@@greensmithbackup6774 which episode was that? If you remember I'd appreciate it :)
Awww, really? Zero love for Weezer?
@@jamesnoland3445 Pat loves Weezer's early albums... it's the Beverly Hills era he doesn't like.

What’s your favourite live performance of a band you’ve seen or heard?

Thanks AGAIN!! :)
Rick and Justin choose their top ten songs of all time and break them all down for us in an hour long bonus episode. There! I said it!
This is my new favourite channel! Our opinions are aligned Justin. PS when The Darkness came to NZ a few years ago, it was sensational and I was partially deaf for days…just the way it should be! 🤘
I want a plectrum hole in my electric guitar as well - it would give my picks a natural habitat where they feel safe.
So happy to hear you will be doing stuff with the coat tail rider's, how taylor would have loved it x
G'day Justin, I'm really enjoying the channel, you are a very interesting and engaging person. How do you see the future popularity of rock/metal/punk? Most rock festivals these days seem to be of bands of 10+ years or older, is this just a poor observation on my part or a sign of a decaying genre?
Reminds me of the Billy Joel quote “when he realized he was making dinner reservations in his head when he sang Just the Way You Are, he stopped performing it.
Hi Justin, I just found out from the old ball and chain you guys are coming to Melbourne. Two tickets to Tuesday night have now been purchased. Can't wait to see you and the boys rock our socks off.
I feel like you have the Midas touch!! 200k!!! Congrats to you!!! And to Bonnie too!!!❤💕😀
Thanks!
Thanks so much Chris!
I LOVE how he says 'absolute truth' in the beginning of the video, then instantly has an edit. Very snarky good sir!
"Responds to your comments in the only way I know how. With absolute truth"

Watching someone like Justin struggling to get his pick out the guitar is the best thing ever.
Hi mr Hawkins, good day to you too!
I’ve been learning all the different snazzy intro riffs and my guitar playing has come along. Cushty
Loving the captain sensible costume!!
Yeah congratulations on 200k from AZ

Hey, Justin!
First things first. Sorry about my english. I'm a spanish professional musician.
In 2003 I listened to "I believe in a thing called love" for the first time, I was on my twenties then.

Since Freddie is dead I love to believe The Darkness is the perfect replacement for post-Innuendo Queen.
I would love if you could have been singing with Queen at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert.
At the time I wasn't a fan of yours, but now I can say with pride I love you.
Keep the good work, there's a lot of people that love you for what you are.

Hey Justin, if I ever drop my pick in an acoustic guitar I use BluTack on the end of a drumstick to retrieve it, quicker than shaking it around for ages. 😊
But that's only viable if you have blue tack or a drum stick near by. Lol

That’s classic rock stars plectrum goes in the hole , made my day

@@kirkwilson8738 yah, but most people only have a few original seasonal songs as it is, trying to do a full album would be like trying to force a fart after several mugs of coffee. the other seasons and holidays perhaps... one a month for special days... can you imagine him doing something for international talk like a pirate day? maybe he can raid adam ants closet. doing one a month means less pressure for a whole bunch of songs for one holiday. maybe 12 days of a song a day, epiphany rolls around, 'on the 12th day of christmas i wish i hadn't agreed to this'.
@@felderup , Dude, If anyone can do it and do it really good, It would be The Darkness
The pick falling in was the funniest fucking thing 😂😂😂👏👏👏❤️
Saw a video of just ripping a crazy solo while on someone’s shoulders in the crowd. Blew me away
Got a little excited when you said you filmed a faith no more vid. Faith no more are one of my all time favourite bands and Mike Patton is a god! Can't wait for that one. Thanks Justin 😁
My favorite TH-cam channel as of late
Hi Justin, I'm a new subscriber and I really love your channel, mostly for revisiting songs from the time when I first started to really get into rock (and music in general). Congrats on your 200k subscribers!
I've been thinking recently that I'd love to see your take on The National and why their music is so polarizing. I find it really confusing. To me, this band is a lot like bananas: they're there, you like them, but you're not overly crazy about them, they're your comfort food, and then suddenly you find there's an entire group of people who hate them with an unexplicable passion and you just don't understand why. Wonder what you think about them. Cheers
Bit of a Captain Sensible look today , nice 👍
Hi Justin I was at the Dublin gig at in February and loved every second of it. Been a fan since I can remember and a big fan of the channel as well. Now for the question. What is your funniest memory from being in the studio over the years? Love the channel and your opinions on music. Keep it up!
I loved the way that you're say my name ( Eidileia) 😍😍😍
These are great to watch while isolating!!. Justin -Re enunciation - you always come across very well educated. Did you have elocution lessons while waiting to become a 'rock star', or did you always have a good command of English? (If only I could be half as articulate)..!
Rick Beato responded to the shout out on his WVH video.
Plectrum in guitar. 😂😂😂 Been there many times.
I am sure I am not the only one who laughed out loud but also cringed at the same time when the pick was dropped inside the acoustic! 🤣
Fenomeno!
What are your views on the vocal recording process nowadays? Do you think they should be all in one take? I saw an interview where page outlined the chopping of vocals as part of the issue with the new production. Great videos keep them up!
The trick with the old pick-in-the-guitar snafu is to first invert the guitar so the pick is at the top of the body Then, its close to the sound hole and you can jump it out easily.
For well over a decade Ive been thinking you say " get down" instead of "guitar" in that part of I believe in a thing called love
you should totally cover the Hoosiers, your vocals would match tracks like clinging on to life. anyway amazing vid yet again!
Nice to see a rock star drop his pick inside his acoustic guitar like the rest of us
Nice to know I’m not the only one dropping plectrums into my sound hole 🕳
