@Sister

I found some long lost interviews, they were removed from youtube for some reason.

So here they are

 

plus this funny thing:gaycat:

 

 

 

@poison girl where are you? we miss you. :staymad:

Where has everyone run off to?!! :giveup:

These interviews are great! That first interviewer, he was good with the questions and getting Ville to answer. He asked such personal things, but Ville answered. lol. These interviews are some of the best, really.

AND Wow, that is the perfect song to watch clips of Ville to, Dancing With Myself! Heavenly, fun and it compliments all of the footage.

Great post~

@YourSweet666 I noticed that the first interviews were by the same guy, he's great. I liked the second interview best, the one without a hat.

That song is great! The Street Team Greeting video doesn't work for me.

@poison girl are you on twitter?

for You grrrls

The German guy does ask so personal questions, he is in both purple beanie interview and the other one without a hat, where he talks about Tim Palmer AND I think I recognize his voice in these too

 

 

 

"what is the most tasteless thing you've done on stage?"

"I took my shirt off." :air:

This interview has to be fake. :wtf:

http://valo-daily.livejournal.com/4414441.html

 

 

"I DON'T CARE, Ville shouts, who's tired of defending himself. - I am a regular human who vacuums at home and goes to the super market to buy toilet paper, he sighs. - **** people, he suddently shouts into the phone. - I watched a lot of horror movies when I was younger and yes, HIM's music has got a lot of that gloom and melancholia, but it hasn't got **** to do with religion. And if anyone out there has a problem with our music, they can just **** off! Ville cuts off the interview and hangs up."

 

 

This doesn't sound like him at all. 

Besides the toilet paper mention. :emma:

New radio interview 

 

about the rehab and other things... I'll try to translate soon

he's on the phone 

http://www.radiorock.fi/#!/post/573eef53934aea030070b8b9

 

 

Tomorrow at 12pm is the full thing.

 

 

I wonder if this is new stuff or just old. Maybe this was recorded that day when he was seen and did the "**** off"?!! Remember the picture was taken by a radio personality.

Please listen and tell us. I will listen, but won't know what they are saying, of course.

I know some people who have done that fast for acting jobs. I didn't get that part from Google Translate when I went to it, see we need someone listening for sure. It worked, Ville looked stunning!

Oh my God, his addiction has been bad :( I have not listened the interviews yet, but according the news in Iltalehti, he only went to rehab when there came blood from his mouth and ass all the time! :( It's about the years in 2007, when he had to go to rehab in California in between the USA tour. He says that it's not that much about alcohol, but stress and depression, mental problems. He says "So many negative things happen in the same time, and you just must go on: have to make a cd, have to go to studio every day. When you must do everything by force long enough, everyone breaks at some point or finds a way to control it. I couldn't find any other way than to drink beer. In some point, my body and my brain said "poks" (meaning the physical and mental breakdown, dont know how to translate this).

Another news above on Iltalehti: people have voted that they want Ville Valo to be in Vain Elämää show in tv, he has gotten over 10 procent of the votes :D But there also is stated that he will propably not be seen there this time. It's a show where there are musicians, who do stuff and cover each other's songs. It has been a hit here, but I got sick of it a long time ago, maybe just watched a few songs from youtube. It just seems so fake, I don't think Ville would want to be there. If he ever went there I would watch it of course. But it's so that I'm not sure if I wanted him to be there... Even though he could do justice to every song there, I couldn't take other singers raping HIM's classics....:saladga:

About the videos  I did a flop translation. Not that much new to the Iltalehti news, I did not include it to this.

In the first video clip, the interviewer asks: at what point it did it came out that you cannot go on like that? (drinking)

-"I believe that it was more like "henkiset ongelmat" (mental problems), it's stupid thing to say but, like hengelliset (spiritual problems), as a satan worshipper as I am (laughing), satan didn't come when I wanted. It eats a man. (laughs) but it was when we had had a long album, one relationship had went to **** and many other things... Everyone breaks at one point."
-"I said to Seppo, their manager, if there is a place where I could go, just because... of course it was a good thing I was not drinking there but also one of the most important things was that my phone was not ringing and I could not use it. I couldn't handle all of that- everyone calling and saying to do this and that which was in itself sweet. But it has always been hard to me to stop in time. It has been my good and bad side. Patience takes to make stuff if it's a good thing. But who's to define that."

-But also, as the band profiles to you and you are in the album covers, do you have pressure about your looks?
-"Of course, but doesn't everyone have, like us semi-middle age one's should have pressure? Of course, people want to look good, it has nothing new or wrong about that. But everyone defines the line how much you want to do about it.

-"When you think about women, especially young women, it's insane, the energy, has been always but now.. When I look as an older guy, it's so.. like the internet and social media, it has became like this in my opinion through social media. You have so many people to compare yourself to all the time. Especially the selfie stuff. People start to walk on a street pouting their mouth, which is insane. Billy Idol didn't do that all the time, pouting half his face, he was a normal guy. (laughing, the interviewer: though it would be kinda cool) Yeah, but that would eventually lead to a stroke. But.. anyway, you try. When we did the ABBA video shoot, I did one and a half week maple syrup and lemon juice. I don't know if it's much or not, but anyway. I try to look good. Men cannot hide that much with make up... perkele. :D
