Dans le topic de l'Urgant show

J'espere qu'il restera comme ça, on dirait il a rajeuni de 10 ans. Incroyable.

    Ca vaut quand même son pesant de cacahouettes rien que pour entendre Brian parler avec cette voix grave !!!

Sinon vous pouvez trouver la VO et une retranscription écrite sur la page facebook de PlaceboFansPeru 

Merci les copaings !

Brian ce serait bien de laisser la parole à ton collègue de temps en temps 

Oui désolée je me suis un peu laissée emportée et emmelée les pinceaux !!!   
Il va falloir se contenter de ça pour le moment.

C'est moi qui rève ou l'interview n'est pas complète ? C'est l'impression que ça me laisse en tout cas.

Je n'arrive pas à faire abstraction de la voix en russe...

Transcript :

Brian: He made the same video? It’s okay. For me it’s like, y’know, okay, he has good taste, y’know? … Can you imagine? Joss Stone stole my lyrics from Pure Morning… Zappa said… Frank Zappa… He said: Good artists borrow, great artists steal.

Hi, we’re Placebo and we’re on MAXIM

FAVOURITE MUSIC
Brian: It’s… [a very interesting subject] … because everything is influenced by everything, y’know. We were influenced by Depeche Mode, Sonic Youth, the Pixies, Nirvana…
Stefan: everything from A to Z – from Abba to Zappa.
Brian: I’m inspired by the Stooges, y’know, Iggy Pop’s band from the 60s and early 70s. And then his Berlin period, the two albums that he recorded with David Bowie. We were inspired very much by David Bowie. David Bowie played a very important part in our lives. We were lucky enough to know him, to spend time with him, to learn from him. And then there’s Lou Reed. He is just an incredible poet and songwriter. And of course there’s the Beatles. Starting from Rubber Soul… Revolver, Rubber Soul and Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band… from late 60s onwards. For me, the Beatles changed music forever. The same way that Nirvana changed music forever. Things will never be the same after these bands exist, with their level of innovation… There’s always an argument between who’s better – the Stones or the Beatles… Y’know, the Stones, they’re a good blues band, y’know. But the Beatles became like abstract expressionist painters, they became like Kandinsky, or Tchaikovsky, y’know?

NEW BANDS
Brian: Oh, there’s a very good new band called The Mirror Trap. Hey guys! Say hello from us.
Stefan: Good luck! ….
Brian: Wish you luck, wish we were there! … We miss you!
Mirror Trap: oh god! fuck!

SERIOUS MOVIES
Brian: There’s a movie which I think should’ve won an Oscar. It’s called The Room. Most of it takes place in a room which is half the size of this one. And this young mother with a six-year-old son stays locked in this room for seven years. It’s incredible. It absolutely blew my mind. It got me*snap* from the moment it started until the moment it ended. It’s amazing, an amazing film. There’s also a German film called Victoria. It’s like a crime film. But the entire movie is shot in one take, no edits, all in one take…… Cheerful? They’re both cheerful!

BLOCKBUSTERS
Brian: I went to see the latest Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. Because I have a little boy. Normally we go to see superhero movies like Captain America or Batman vs Superman or X-Men, things like that. But he really wanted to see Alvin and the Chipmunks. I… I’m a big fan of science fiction. For me to see a movie like X-Men it’s cool, because it’s escapism, but it’s a crazy world, so, yeah, I see a lot of superhero movies. And I go to see them with my little man and then I watch documentaries with my girlfriend.

VIDEOGAMES
Brian: Yes, I play Plants vs Zombies. We play together, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Me and my little man, we play Plant vs Zombies together, yeah.

RUSSIAN WRITERS
Brian: Wow. I mean, everybody knows Dostoyevsky and everybody knows Leo Tolstoy. I like The Idiot. It’s fantastic…. I haven’t had the courage to try to get through Crime and Punishment, ahahah, y’know. Seems like it requires a lot of commitment.

A FEW WORDS ABOUT RUSSIA
Brian: When I was at school I was very-very interested by the… y’know… by the Russian revolution. And as I was growing up… from a teenager… from the outside, y’know, I saw perestroika and the fall of the Berlin wall. And then a few years later we started travelling and that’s when we were able to come to Russia…, we could come to former USSR countries. And we kept going back and we’ve seen the evolution, how things changed. Especially since the birth of the Internet. But I’ve noticed that there are a lot of Internet sites in Russia that are blocked.

RUSSIAN ARTISTS
Brian: All the artists or activists they say “No, we don’t want to leave Russia, we want to stay here and we want to provoke change with our art, cause we’re Russian. So we don’t want to run away to another country. We want to stay and we want to make art about real people and about real things and about real Russia and not the one that you see on the news”. It’s not only what you see about Russia on the news is bad. Everything you see on the news is bad. Everything about England, everything about the United States, it’s all bad. News is bad news.

RUSSIAN MUSICIANS
Stefan: I remember one Russian musician I met, he was a very interesting musician ‘cause he was a throat singer and at the same time he plays something like a flute. The way he played was absolutely new to me. I haven’t seen anything like that before. So with music it’s always very important to keep an open mind. Cause there is so much music out there that must be heard.

DOCUMENTARIES
Brian: Well anything by Alex Gibney is very good. He made a documentary about Iraq. He made a documentary about the church of scientology. A documentary about Lance Armstrong, the cyclist. He’s a very very interesting documentarist in my opinion.

MUSIC DOCUMENTARIES
Stefan: Yeah, if we speak about music, there are several classics among music documentaries like Radiohead’s Meeting People is Easy and also about Scott Walker called 30 Century Man, which for me as a musician is very inspiring.

ART
Stefan: The feeling that I got from artists that I met… there were also street artists… as I was speaking to them… When they talk about what they do, they speak about it with such a way that I am drawn into what they’re saying and I start to see their way of seeing the world, cause essentially art is a form of expression and every artist has their own way of expression. It’s a very personal language. So for me just to spend time with them and experience … the process of sculpting or their … hanging up of paintings in the street with me… to be part of that process, this experience, it enriched me. And I think that it’s probably the most important part of any art form, that it allows you to see things in a slightly different way that maybe you never thought of before.
