i think that Chris is so pressurised by the interviewers to tell somethings which he don't want to speak,because of which he tries to be sarcastic sometimes.I like his subtleness and sarcasm trying to hide things.Infact if you want to live in this world being in that position you need to be like that only which he does.There is no need to tell every truth to others.

 

If you are truthfull you can't be so happy then.

 

Its nice to hide things.

 

Even i also like to hide things than to be open with others when it comes to "certain" things.

 

i am a vegetarian too and i was asked n number of times by people why are you not eating meat and i skipped all those things.i never even cared to answer it.But for Chris he's just getting stressed everytime because he's truthfull to the world.:(

 

whether a person eats vegetarian or non vegetarian is his own thing why others are bothered so much to make it a big deal or fuss.:thinking:

thanks so much for posting these !!! :nice:

Chris is so handsome he doesn't agree with it.He don't want to give himself a credit.

He looks so good in the photoshoots.

 

But he's more sexy than handsome!

He didn't sound that stressed really, maybe a little quiet, but he was eating. He was probably just in a bad mood.

 

He was still funny and polite. Answered the questions he was given. Even if some of them were completely stupid! I hope it wasn't one of our lot that asked the baby name question :dozey:

Or the question "you know how I know you're gay?"

 

We get it already. That movie wasn't even that great, stop it. :dozey:

I think the interview went well overall. We can't expect him to be bubbly and happy-go-lucky at every single interview. It must get old after a while.

asking questions is some sort of skill really it can't be done by all the people though.:confused:

Blender should have the skill to pick out the good from the bad though.

the bad quality makes it difficult to understand :/

plus the reason that i'm not the best in speaking english...

I'll do it later maybe. Am home alone anyway. :)

thanks!!

Where was the oral sex comment. the audio was so bad I didn't hear that. But a friend of mine mentioned it as well and I didn't hear him say anthing abuot it. Which part was it in?

It wasn't, nor the stabbing part. Am thinking they want you to buy the magazine to hear all the juicy stuff.

I can't get the audio to work on my computer - what was his answer to the Radiohead question?

I'm working on the answers now :D I'll post them in a min :)

some one has to post this magazine scans after buying it.

 

i'll see whether its available online to buy.

Right, I've done four questions and it's taken me bloody ages! :lol: I'll do the rest in a bit.

 

Producer Brian Eno had you hypnotized while you were recording the new album. What weird stuff did he make you do while you were under?

74Oblique, Morehead, KY

 

Chris: He made us sign over all our royalties to all our previous records.

Interviewer: Now that's why he's a genius.

Chris: Yep. What was the stuff he made us do?

Interviewer: Yeah

Chris: You name it, we tried it. Playing in different outputs and different instruments, obviously. Trying to plagiarise the most random, weird stuff.

Interviewer: Like what?

Chris: There was a morning where we listened to a Donna Summer song called 'State of Independence' and we listened to 'Rollin' by Limp Bizkit and then we went out to play in the live room, see what happened.

Interviewer: To cover those songs?

Chris: No just to see what the influence of those two things did and it ended up in a song called 'Sleep Chant' which is untitled on the record.

Interviewer: It's wordless, it's hard to make out the words.

Chris: There are no words, it's kind of a...

Interviewer: I like that, it comes at the end of Yes

Chris: It comes at the end of Yes, exactly. So yeah....sometime he...he brought us in with a hypnotist and..there was less weird stuff it was more just like childish exciting stuff, you know? He just made us not worry about what we were doing.

Interviewer: So you were under hypnosis for like...

Chris: Only for like a day (*can't make that bit out*) it just gave us a sense of freedom so we weren't constrained by all the things we'd done in the past.

 

The new album was originally subtitled Death and All His Friends—what’s the closest you’ve ever come to dying?

Jefferson.Miller, New York

 

Chris: A couple of times on aeroplanes we've been under heavy sniper fire. Hang on. Someone else used that. No, a couple of times on aeroplanes...we were coming into land one time in Ghana in a desert and there was a dust storm so you couldn't see fuck all and so this aeroplane didn't have any instruments or anything and so it wouldn't just guide you in to land like a big jumbo jet would. So we were descending pretty fast and we couldn't see anything and then suddenly the plane just like dropped to the right and then dropped to the left and the ground was right there and everyone was like 'oh shit, that's it' and some how the guy...

Interviewer: You were like freaked out

Chris: Yeah, I just remember thinking 'oh shit, I didn't finish Fix You' that was the first thought that went through my head.

Interviewer: That was like the last glimmer of consciousness

Chris: I was like 'fucking hell, I didn't get that chorus right'

 

I tried to be a vegetarian, but bacon cheeseburgers were too hard to quit. What dish do you miss most?

Magalag, Port Washington, NY

 

Chris: I think after I saw 'Babe' that film about the pig I could never eat pig again.

Interviewer: How many years have you been off of meat then?

Chris: Eight

Interviewer: Eight

Chris: Yep. I don't like eating things with hooves.

Interviewer: Sure

Chris: I don't like eating anything that if their friends heard about it they could stampeded me, you know? I'm less worried about a flock of mackerel

Interviewer: So really it's all about who can get you back?

Chris: It's about who has got (*can't make out the word*) that's why I'd never eat crocodile soup.

Interviewer: Sure

Chris: Or shark fin soup, because then I'd be worried. I don't know what their cellphone (it's mobile phone Christoper, you're British :P) technology is but I don't want to meet this shark's cousin.

Interviewer: So those are all very good reasons for not wanting to eat meat, but what would mine be? Mine would be barbecue chicken, that's one that I really salivate for. I was wondering if you have a dish like that?

Chris: Same thing probably.

Interviewer: Barbecue chicken. Do they have barbeque's in the UK? (what the eff? of course we do, seriously :rolleyes:)

Chris: Oh yeah, yeah. Not quite as good as yours. Not as good as Texas barbecue. Also I don't like eating cows because there's too many cows on the planet because we're all obsessed with eating beef and it's not good for deforestation. There's also that reason.

Interviewer: It's wrong if you want to live incredibly greenly if you're financing big cow or big chicken, there's all sorts of environmental strains that that sort of diet puts on the environment for sure. So barbecue chicken. And so have you been strict or have you broken it?

Chris: Oh I've broke it all the time yeah, not very often (not my bad grammar by the way, his :P)

Interviewer: What was the last meat you ate?

Chris: Erm probably in Sicily on a photoshoot, never anything with hooves, but I probably had some chicken just because there was nothing else.

 

Don’t lie: Just how much did you pay for Radiohead’s In Rainbows?

MorningBells, Pittsburgh

 

Chris: Well the truth of it is I paid ten pounds for three copies, like thirty pounds, ten pounds each and I never got them.

Interviewer: No shit

Chris: The download thing didn't work so I bought it on vinyl and gave them to some people.

Interviewer: So you tried it three separate times...

Chris: Yeah, I'm not very good with computers so I think I must have done something wrong, but I don't mind that.

Interviewer: You're not blaming Radiohead

Chris: Well I owe Radiohead a lot more than thirty pounds, lets face it, we owe them a career really.

Thank you Mich, you're an angel :kiss:

 

I'm disappointed with Chris tough, how can he say he's vegetarian and then eat chicken, I'll never vote for him as sexiest vegetarian cause technically he's not :P

sorry to say that you did a bit of needless work haha but the last link from the original post is the transcript :)

Oh crap they've updated the page! :dozey:

 

They hadn't posted that when I started :disappointed: Oh well :P
