So this Thursday at 11.25pm (Belgian time) on Canvas.

Thanks! Looks like it'll be subtitled rather than dubbed too! :nice:

Nice! Thanks for posting this :)

The question is, does Chris know that the "We want sex with Chris" poster is being used as part of the promotion for the program? LOL

thanks for the info! :D

Thanks! Looks like it'll be subtitled rather than dubbed too! :nice:

 

Of course! I don't understand why in other countries foreign languages are always dubbed.

 

Thanks a lot! I didn't even know that, and I watch Canvas... :thinking:

 

Not sure about his explanation about mixing all types of music to please all types of people. I haven't been convinced of this strategy. But I'll give them one last chance to prove me wrong next week.

:awesome:

'k zat erop te wachten van de moment da Kirsten da zei op de radio :lol:

Oh great, didn't know this either! Will program it now :D

 

Of course! I don't understand why in other countries foreign languages are always dubbed.

Yeah, I'm so glad they never dub in Belgium, it's so annoying (well Flanders anyway, the french part is a different story)

^:nod: I'll do the same :P

 

yep I hate dubbed programmes, hate to watch it

I don't get dubbing either, it's so annoying. Why wouldn't you want to hear someone's real voice?

 

I think it will only be a short interview btw, but still nice. :)

The Canvas site says it will be a one hour show. So I think we can expect a interview with some of the coverage of the Werchter gig last summer. So can't wait, especially because I was at the Werchter show :)

 

 

According to Canvas:

 

''Kirsten Lemaire had naar aanleiding van de release van het nieuwe album ‘Mylo Xyloto’ een exclusief interview met Coldplay-frontman Chris Martin. Aansluitend volgt het concert van Coldplay dat werd opgenomen op Rock Werchter 2011.''

 

Translated:

''Because of the release of the new album 'Mylo Xyloto' Kirsten Lemaire had an exclusive interview with Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin. Followed by the concert of Coldplay recorded at Rock Werchter 2011.''

Awesome! Let's hope they get asked something other than what does Mylo Xyloto mean, lol.

Awesome! Let's hope they get asked something other than what does Mylo Xyloto mean, lol.

 

Chris asked about Pukkelpop :nice:

Interview by HUMO with tonight's interviewer:

 

 

Muziek: Coldplay Special

Afgelopen zomer de passage van Coldplay op Werchter gemist? Om u hun vijfde plaat 'Mylo Xyloto' (West-Vlaams voor 'Ik zie je ook graag als je zat bent') onder de aandacht brengen, zendt Canvas het vanavond nog eens integraal uit.

 

Het voorprogramma wordt verzorgd door Kirsten Lemaire, die laatst Chris Martin en gitarist Jonny Buckland exclusief voor Vlaanderen mocht opzoeken.

 

Kirsten Lemaire «Het was in hun eigen studio te doen, The Bakery, waar ze maanden hadden gebivakkeerd om de plaat op te nemen, tot de dag voor dit interview. Ik was de eerste journalist van de dag - en dus wellicht van de hele promoperiode - en dat was erg aangenaam. Je merkte dat alles nog vers in hun hoofd zat, ze waren ook de hele tijd naar elkaar aan het loeren - zo van: 'Hoe zit het nu ook weer?' Of: 'Mag ik dit wel zeggen?' Ze waren nog niet platgeïnterviewd.

 

»Viel ook op: de mensen van de platenfirma zagen er behoorlijk gestresseerd op toe dat alles strak verliep. En net voor het interview zag ik een assistente nog uitvoerig borstelen aan de schoenen die bij de persfoto-outfit van de groep horen - maar Johnny en Chris zelf zaten er zeer relaxed bij. Voor hen was alles 'fine'. 't Was ook eerder een gesprek dan een interview.

 

»Halverwege vroeg Chris bijvoorbeeld ineens: 'Dit heeft niets met het interview te maken, maar jij bent van België: hoe is het nog afgelopen op Pukkelpop? Komt dat nog goed? Wat zijn de gevolgen? Et cetera.' Heel oprecht, uit niets dan bezorgdheid. Aangenaam om te zien dat hij nog niet de behoefte voelt om voortdurend de Artiest uit te hangen.»

 

HUMO Naar verluidt gaan zijn nieuwe teksten over 'verslavingen, obsessieve stoornissen en werken voor mensen die je niet kan uitstaan'.

 

Lemaire «Dat had ik ook gelezen, en ik heb hem gevraagd, al lachend: 'Veel last van de wereld, tegenwoordig?' Nu, het blijken inderdaad de voornaamste thema's op de plaat, maar ik heb de indruk dat het met hemzelf uitstekend gaat. En ook dat hij tegenwoordig een fitnessabonnement heeft. Vroeger was dat toch zo'n schriel ventje, nu had hij zo'n heel toned lichaam. Euh, dat was mij dan weer opgevallen.»

 

HUMO Zijn er onderwerpen waarvan men jou vooraf had gezegd dat ze off limits waren?

 

Lemaire «Gwyneth (Paltrow, mevrouw Chris Martin, red.). Enfin, men zei: 'No personal questions.' Ook al omdat er net in die week van alles in de pers was verschenen over dat ze zogezegd niet meer samen zouden zijn. Geen probleem voor mij; ik was daar toch alleen om het over de plaat te hebben. Iets wat blijkbaar gewaardeerd werd, want op het einde zei Martin nog: 'Thank you for talking about the record, and not about older rubbish, as usual.'»

 

HUMO Heb je achteraf nog voor de kop geslagen omdat je iets was vergeten te vragen?

 

Lemaire «Ja! Ik had willen vragen wat The Beatles op hun wc deden.»

 

HUMO Excuseer?

 

Lemaire «Ik ben nadien even naar het toilet geweest - op zich een ervaring, want mijn billen hebben dus de bril aangeraakt waar ook hún billen zich al die weken op hadden neergevlijd (lacht). En daar hing aan de muur een heel mooie, oude zwart-witfoto van vier nog zeer jonge Beatles. Nu, het interview was op dat moment al voorbij. En ik durfde de persverantwoordelijke niet om extra tijd te vragen 'omdat ik nog een wc-vraag had'.»

Which means something like:

Sorry if there's mistakes

 

 

 

Music: Coldplay Special

 

Missed out on Coldplay at Werchter this summer? To bring you to the attention of their fifth record 'Mylo Xyloto' (West Flemish for 'I also love you when you're wasted'), Canvas broadcasts the whole show again tonight.

 

The pre-show is taken care of by Kirsten Lemaire, who got to visit Chris Martin and guitarist Jonny Buckland the other day, exclusively for Flanders.

 

Kirsten Lemaire "We did that in their own studio, The Bakery, where they remained for months to record their album, up until the day before the interview. I was the first journalist of the day - and probably of the whole promo period - which was very pleasant. You could tell everything was still fresh inside their heads, they kept watching each other as well - like: 'How was it again?' Or: 'Am I allowed to say this?' They hadn't ben interviewed to pieces yet.

 

"Also remarkable: the people of the record company were pretty strained and made sure everything went according to their tight schedules. And just before the interview I saw an assistant comprehensively brushing their shoes which were part of the pressphoto outfit of the band - but Jonny and Chris themselves were very relaxed. To them everything was 'fine'. It was also more of a conversation than an interview.

"For example, halfway through Chris suddenly asked: 'This has nothing to do with the interview, but you're from Belgium: how did things end on Pukkelpop? Will everything be ok? What are the consequences? Et cetera.' Very sincere, just out of concern. Pleasant to see that he doesn't need to act like the Artist all the time."

 

HUMO Reportedly his new lyrics are about 'addiction, OCD and working for someone you don't like'.

 

Lemaire "I read that as well, and I asked him, laughingly: 'Is the world getting to you, these days?' Well, it seems like those are the main themes on the record, but I feel like he's doing very well himself. And also that he has a fitness membership nowadays. He used to be such a skinny boy, but now he has a very toned body. Er, that's just what I noticed."

 

HUMO Were there topics about which they told you were off limits?

 

Lemaire "Gwyneth (Paltrow, Mrs. Chris Martin). Well, they said: 'No personal questions.' Also because in that week, there had been press rumours about them not being toghether anymore. No problem for me; I was just there to talk about the record anyway. Something which was appreciated apparently, because in the end Martin said: 'Thank you for talking about the record, and not about older rubbish, as usual.'"

 

HUMO Did you punch yourself in the face afterwards because you had forgotten to ask something?

 

Lemaire "Yes! I wanted to ask what The Beatles were doing on their toilet."

 

HUMO Excuse me?

 

Lemaire "I went to the bathroom afterwards - an experience at itself, because now my butt has touched the the toilet seat which their butts had been sitting on for all those weeks (laughs). And there on the wall was this very nice, old black and white picture of four very young Beatles. At that moment, the interview was over. I didn't dare to ask the press representative for extra time, just because I 'still had a toilet question left'."

Thanks for that :nice:

(West Flemish for 'I also love you when you're wasted')

 

:wtf: :lol:

Great article, thx for posting!

Can't wait for the actual interview

 

Lemaire "I went to the bathroom afterwards - an experience at itself, because now my butt has touched the the toilet seat which their butts had been sitting on for all those weeks (laughs). And there on the wall was this very nice, old black and white picture of four very young Beatles. At that moment, the interview was over. I didn't dare to ask the press representative for extra time, just because I 'still had a toilet question left'."

:D :D Would have loved to read the answer to that question :p

(West Flemish for 'I also love you when you're wasted')

:laugh3: typical Humo

 

they kept watching each other as well

 

:jbcm:

 

"For example, halfway through Chris suddenly asked: 'This has nothing to do with the interview, but you're from Belgium: how did things end on Pukkelpop? Will everything be ok? What are the consequences? Et cetera.' Very sincere, just out of concern. Pleasant to see that he doesn't need to act like the Artist all the time."

 

:wacky: and this is what I like about them

so sweet and just human, like they still know they played there

 

Lemaire "I went to the bathroom afterwards - an experience at itself, because now my butt has touched the the toilet seat which their butts had been sitting on for all those weeks (laughs). And there on the wall was this very nice, old black and white picture of four very young Beatles. At that moment, the interview was over. I didn't dare to ask the press representative for extra time, just because I 'still had a toilet question left'."

 

:lol:

since I have a long day ahead tomorrow, is this an interview I can watch online, or will somebody tape it? :smiley:
