Hello.
- Hello! - Hello.
Hi. I've had a lovely morning skiving and watching your DVD at my computer.
Have you? Oh, right, as research?
Yeah, as like working. I went I can't come to that meeting sorry... Just like watching it.
- I like it. - Did you enjoy it?
Yeah, yeah. It's really good.
You know, I don't want people to go away thinking, oh, wow aren't they great musicians. I just
want them to go away thinking we had the best night ever. That was such a good, fun night.
I hope they leave with the same kind of feeling I leave with.
So I've decided, for reasons that I'm not that sure on, that we'd do this like a job
interview.
- Fair enough. - Great.
So can you tell me as a collective please, what is your greatest strength?
Our greatest strength?
- Our scent. - Like physically?
When we formulate... That's our strength.
- I think Harry's our strength. - We're like transformer.
We're terrible individually, but put us together and we're kind of alright.
- Yeah. - Yes.
On my own, I don't have much to offer. Dance a little bit, drum a little bit but no-one
wants that. Matt can sing, but no-one seems to want that either, do they? Danny tried
it on Popstar to Operastar. That obviously didn't work.
- I'm a lucky guy! - You went on I'm a celeb, but-
I'm an okay singer, an okay this and whatever but in a band I somehow get away with it.
I would say you're better than okay, James.
I think you're better than okay.
I think you're all great.
This chili smells incredible!
Have a bite!
So, united, you are stronger?
-Yes. - Extraordinarily stronger.
I hope that people that come and see this go away as as excited about this as we are
because I really see this as something kind of special.
What is your greatest weakness?
- Greatest weakness... - Our farts.
Farting.
Is you dunno what you're gonna get.
We're unpredictable.
Quest bars and bananas.
I think all of us can be slightly unpredictable, apart from Danny. Dann'ys always-
You're so predictable Danny.
You're pretty solid.
James has his phone out, which is quite unpredictable. That's not a normal interview scenario.
James could just suddenly answer his phone right now.
- Might just phone someone or text someone. - No, i would never do that.
And it'd probably be David Guest.
Yeah, hi, sorry I'm just in an interview. I'll call you back.
- Our unpredictability. - We're on live television, James.
Or Jermaine Jackson.
Kanye West.
Do you call Kanye West?
Yeah. All the time.
You do not!
- BFFs. - BFFs.
BEA.
James has got BFFs all over the place.
We make beats together but no-one would ever know that, he wouldn't want anyone to know
that because it'd ruin his cred.
I think every day you don't spend doing it, it just feels like a wasted day.
I can't describe the feeling but it's- your adrenaline's going and you know as soon as
you get that little smile, that little 'that was awesome, that was awesome,' you know that
you've done an amazing job.
How do you handle stress as a group?
Kanye West.
Just call Kanye West. 'What do we do?'
How do we handle what? Stress?
Stress.
Whenever I feel like I'm getting a little stressed out by something, I always talk to
Dougie. 'It's alright mate, it's alright mate.'
I've got a twitchy eye and a bunch of ulcers!
You then put the stress onto him and he comes to me coz he can't sleep! 'Oh my god, I can't sleep.'
Matt's freaking out.
Why's Matt freaking out?
Rats are falling on me!
We're a quite a dramatic band. We're quite a dramatic group of boys.
Who's the most dramatic?
We're all pretty dramatic.
I think Harry's probably the least dramatic.
I'm the least. Drames-
- James. - Drames?
- Drames. - Oh, Drames.
I like Drames. Makes me sound kinda urban. Drake. Drake and James. Drames.
Like, Doctor Drames.
Doctor Drames I like.
Drames.
Drames Braun.
It's something I'll be able to sit back on the bench press when I'm 80 and say,
'That was epic.'
That is another night I spent on planet earth doing what I love the most with five of the
people I love the most.
Can you describe a stressful situation and how you overcame it.
A stressful situation was, when we were going up in a lift at the back of our stage and
it caught the bottom of the walkway in the air.
- I thought you guys were so overdramatic about that. - This is not a lift, it's like the bottom of an air balloon.
It's like a basket
It's like a little basket and they winch us up on it. We're in the darkness.
There's crocodiles underneath.
If we fall, it's over.
I don't even understand this mode of transport.
It lifts us up.
We have to get to a B stage in the middle of the-
Is this a famous person thing?
- No, it's from our tour. - You know our UFO.
How we get to our UFO.
Oh, okay, yeah.
We have to go to a walkway in the sky.
Don't tell them about it, shh!
You know that UFO just there.
We're up thousands of feet in the air.
Well, it felt like-
Enough that you would die.
Who's the most dramatic? Thousands of fee tin the air.
And the thing starts tipping us out of it and we're inside it.
It wasn't like that!
- It went like that for about a second. - And would you land on the fans?
No no, we would have fallen to our death.
Well, I'm glad that didn't happen.
But that was stressful.
And how did we overcome it?
We sort of went like, 'Agh! Oh my God, we're gonna die.'
And then we winged and moaned about it and nothing changed.
You know this kind of thing doesn't really come along very often. We're grabbing it.
Every night, we pinch ourselves and every night we don't take it for granted because
every time we go on stage, I feel like that's- I've spent the day doing what I would most
like to do.
Okay, the final one.
The final one.
Which, I can't ask this one because it doesn't work at all. Why did you leave your last job?
Why did you leave your last job?
Well, it kinda works.
I suppose so.
Because you left your job as an actor to be in McBusted. We left, well, we didn't leave but
we stopped doing what we were doing in McFly to join McBusted. You, what did you start?
James changed countries.
I changed countries, yeah.
Left Kanye behind.
Left Kanye behind. Got back on the plane, flew over here.
It was good decisions all round.
Good decisions all round.
Because it sounded like a good idea at the time.
And it was!
And it ended up being pretty rad.
Well done guys.
Cheers.
