I love how happy hour never feels like an interview, more so just friends having a conversation.
Couldn't agree more mate👍🏻
Justin is such a good speaker. He’s so intelligent. No wonder Happy Hour wanted him to come on
My best mate’s (who I’m in a band with) sister opened for the darkness a few times and remains in good contact with Justin. She’s always telling us about how cool and down to earth he is.
Gaga has always brought in opening acts that people really wouldn't expect a pop act to have. Usually it's just other up and coming pop artists that labels break deals with the bigger pop artists, she's had guys like these and an actual japanese digital singer, a really out there alternative DJ and stuff like that.
True!
@@flazeda8743 darkness was around before gaga lol
@@Fa5Squad Who said the opposite? 🤔
@@Fa5Squad
The point that @arturo435 made has clearly gone straight over your head and has been lost on you.
It's not about who was around first.
It's the fact that Gaga doesn't restrict herself to only one genre of music or one type of support bands, etc.
A great artist can appreciate ALL genres of music and all sorts of people in the industry (whether established or not).
Despite LG physically struggling with fibromyalgia she puts so much work into her show, so glad I saw her with Darkness as support
proof LG is a class act, everyone shes worked always point out how down to earth she is.
She?

Congrats on making yourself the biggest 🤡💩 in the comments section of this video.
Justin Hawkins rides again is one of the best TH-cam channels, glad to see the man the myth the legend on happy hour
I've only just recently discovered his channel and I'm really enjoying getting to know him and what makes him tick.
Along with hearing some of their music that I'd not known about in more recent years.
He's a really funny and deep guy, and The Darkness are a seriously underrated band.
Confirmed. Robbie Knox and Justin Hawkins are long lost brothers. 👨🏻
Your teeth are hilarious 🤣🤣🤣😭
@@KS-jn5pv and you're not funny
@@KS-jn5pv?
Touring with Gaga has been a long-standing dream of mine... Just wish she needed a violist. The player on the 5 string violin in the Born This Way Ball tour was fantastic!!
Didn't expect to see Justin on the pod. He's looking well :)
Gaga worked her ass off for her success
Right she had the passion and determination something I lack and she amazes me because I know most people would give up midway and she just keeps going and she inspires me so much.
Didn't she steal it from Lana though
@@kookytoots6755 she definitely outshone Lana
Still a narcissistic ingratiating mouthpiece.
@@kookytoots6755
Lana is clearly just a bitter, jaded woman.
funny Guns N' Roses being the diva and Lady Gaga being the rockstar lmao...
well, gaga is a rockstar if u know what i mean
@@andrelego99 for sure, the true rockstar of pop music!
@@inma5665 she can sing MANY genres
@@melisagalvalizi6982 Unfortunately she doesn't sing the ones that use her vocal talent nearly enough.
Yeah a rock star looks for her favourite paparazzi picture to retweet while out for a fancy meal...
Omg HIMMM!!!
He was the opening act here in Brazil in the Born This Way Ball, right? That's so cool
in south africa too! damn, those were the days.
JACK! Please try to get Brian May on the podcast now!
I saw you guys when supported Lady Gaga! Great opening
Glad to hear Brian May was nice to Justin.
Why wouldn't he be. Brian, like Gaga, is someone who appreciates many different artists and is a really cool person in general.
Plus, Rufus Tiger Taylor (son of Roger Taylor) has been the drummer for The Darkness since 2015.
Love that theirs 2 mainshows this week again, absolutely brilliant. Maybe a tiny bit more effort/structure is needed tho just feel with the confessions maybe a tiny bit of making the confessions readable in a way, like some were just not readable which is FUNNY but I feel the podcast ended and their wasn't exactly the funny debate of whether they should've been forgiven. Or at least have a confession where it was 50/50 on whether forgiveness should be given
absolutely phenomenal.
Didn’t know Hawkins was even on the pod!! I need to catch up and listen to this
There's me seeing the thumbnail and having heard new (I think) The Darkness on the radio a couple of days ago, thinking then that this was a new upload (to promote the new material) until I realised on playing that it was the old studio set-up and an eleven month old upload the algorithm has swung my way (probably because I played a few of his vids/shorts from Rides Again recently).
NO WAY JUSTIN HAWKINS ON HAPPY HOUR! I love his TH-cam channel and love the pod ❤️
Justin Hawkins is a legend I love his YT channel
He seems so down to earth and he’s funny! Also a badass guitarist
In this interview, Justin Hawkins says...... really nice things about someone, because he's cool af.
I believe in a thing called loooveeeeeeeee!!!! the darkness had some good tunes! and they made the last ever good Christmas song.
Stephanie ( Lady GA GA ) is worth her salt ..... I don't know anyone that doesn't recognize her virtuosity
I'm guessing there was a memo circulating for which outfits to wear on this episode
He last worked with Gaga a decade ago though. She's very different now. Wayyyy more private and she's made it now. She's an Oscar winning artist. She rarely gets papped these days unless it's at a work event.
He opened for her in 2012 she already had 6+ #1 hits on radio won grammys and etc. She was the biggest pop star in the world at the time while still struggling with her mental health and etc.
She was already huge in 2012 bro LOL how old are you
@@MetalizedButt where did I say she wasn't huge in 2012??
Perhaps because Gaga has finally learnt how to manage herself and her life in the spotlight, without having to stress over it 24/7.
Much less stressful for certain artists/celebs to just keep to themselves in the world we live in nowadays, where every public appearance, every outfit, every little word, every little moment is CONSTANTLY scrutinised by the media, the press and the court of the web.
By the way, she had already made it back in 2012. Which is the point being made by the others.
Thought that was Robbie Knox for a minute
I’m amazed at Joseph Quinn’s patience with his fans, including being impaled on a couch for over an hour’s Q&A
wherever he goes…adorable!
But I really take exception to the idea of women standing in line to be photographed with their hands on him…I don’t know why, but I think it’s gross!
I’m off-topic, but as the discussion was about personal space, I wanted to mention an example from my own experience:
A very nice interview, thank you for sharing!
Am I the only one that saw this title and instantly thought of that Kanye Polaroid clip
Justin is a legend
Robbie long lost brother
Fuck yes Hawkins is the king

Why no subscribe
you’re not going to answer bros question?
My experience as a subscriber is so satisfying, that I don’t really have the words to describe it!
🙏🏽💔🙏🏻
How do I watch full podcast
Spotify
You can’t watch it tho
you ever find out?
As the idles say never fight a man with a perm
who be Justin Hawkins ??
He looks so different to how he looked
Jacks teeth are fuckin hilarious😂😂😂😂
Do you feel better about yourself now? Pls be kind to ppl or just don’t say anything at all, it’s not that difficult really
@@AmberWoodMusicx calm down
@@nickchivers9029 it’s not alright tho
@@AmberWoodMusicx are we watching the same person? He made a career out of taking the piss out of people for little to no reason, he can handle a bit of banter
@@aaaa-xf3hx nah, he’s said on Instagram that he had to turn off the comments on one of his posts bc it was just not good, words still have meaning and ppl forget that there’s pure bullying online which can’t be covered as ‘banter’ or where’s the accountability? Are ppl not bored of taking their unhappiness out on others? I mean, come on
When hearing bands and actors talk about fellow artists, they always become, 'really good friends' .. how many really good friends does GaGa have then?? 🤣
I guess if you don't have many (or any) really good friends, it's probably something foreign to you and something you'd childishly mock others for having.
Justin is a dude - this was a great ep.
Jack with the Barry Gibb gnashers
Jacks teeth 😂
Teaching: sit still hawkins you will get back problems if you carry on
Being an A List celebrity sounds kind of terrible.
cor blasss me oi can ear the narrrrfuk
Justin Hawkins' take on Lady Gaga: "She didn't pay attention to me at dinner."
so it's never real ....
I could care less I'm just wondering who is taking so long to upload today's podcast, is someone dead or just lazy? Come on
is this just a snippet of the whole podcast?
gaga sounds like a total narc lol
You clearly didn't listen to (nor understand) what Justin said about Gaga and what her life was forced to be like at the time.
