      He's weirdly Dutch. I mean his surname is. But I doubt that his heritage is recent at all. He is so down to earth.

    These guys are cool because they own their coolness. They aren't afraid of it. And they're aware that it's just a role to play like any other role. Queens are on of the few authentically cool bands around.

    Great interview! Personable and unforced. I liked your questions because I think it's pretty easy to sense disingenuous pokes at information to try and get 'original' questions from popular figures, but I feel like they sensed your fandom, clear appreciation for the band and music so they gave something unique back!

      @@startervisionsThis is going for way longer than it needs to, but yeah, our comments on him mean something if we were 12 year old boys. But to stand in awe because of another man's coolness and project that feeling of "i wish i was like him..." is kind of a turn off for, nevermind a girl witnessing it, but another man watching.
      Anyway, i'm not hating or anything, it's just an observation.

    Josh - I know you'll never watch this interview back, I know you'll never read this comment, but "Perception is truth, right?" is a phrase only a villain would use in such flagrant a way.
    If I could sit, sip tea & hold a discussion with you on that point, I think we'd both find it enlightening, but we'd end up coming to no better true understanding than the centuries of global philosophy already unfurled before us.
    "Perception is truth, right?"
    Man, that's 7 years of philosophical study that would earn an education - and ultimately drive one to insanity.

    It feels good to follow the rules (ww2 reference) such a deep answer to villains and how evil exists in normal culture and with covid lockdowns rings true even more in 2020 and 2021 (prob 2022 at this rate). Evil persists when good men sit idle. Stand up and live free in the life you are given.

    Homme is annoying seriously. The guy is so full of himself it's almost comical to watch. He's one of those guys who thinks every single thing that comes out of his mouth is worthy of getting tattooed or to be thought over deeply. It gets tiresome after the first couple of minutes. I know personally I could never hang out with him he's too into his own shit, doesn't really care or listen to others opinions and always has his own. It must be exhausting to always try as hard as he does.
