Thanks for this. I don't think this is a new interview. This YouTuber interviewed Hooky back in 2020 (I think) and has periodically posted parts of the interview in various uploads. This is from the same interview, I think. Not sure if he keeps using new bits or not but I think there are five or six videos which use the same interview. Good to see anyway. Thanks for posting, as I would've likely missed it.

On the one hand, Rashford has been very disappointing. On the other hand, look at that tracksuit!

Apparently X and Pearl are superb films ( also featuring Miss Goth) and Maxxxine is the final part of the trilogy. But all involved ,(including Elizabeth Debicky and Kevin Bacon too) with Maxxxine should be ashamed of themselves. I think Perspex raised it first and then I had a look and reported back here. There is a vacuousness and a sleaziness about it that reminded me of Paul Verhoeven's Showgirls. i didn't hate it, but it was difficult to like the main character - which tends to make things tricky. Fair warning: If you didn't like Maxxxine, you might not like X or Pearl either. I must admit, athough I've seen all three, I wouldn't rush to watch any of them again.

This guy kicked off his article about EV ownership with a quote from "Slow Jam". I'm guessing he's a New Order fan: CarSales.com

Unsure of the vintage of this. Apologies if it's been posted before: Bernard Sumner's Favourite Indie Songs: FarOutMagazine

Bernard did The Tracks Of My Years for Ken Bruce on BBC Radio 2As far as I can see, this article has just cherry picked 4 tracks from the original 10 chosen. With the possible exception of the Killers (who I stopped liking after Hot Fuss), this is a pretty good list, albeit there's nothing to make me say "Who? What? I must investigate further!". When Steve does these sort of things, there's usually something I wasn't aware of before... Pretty sure either Fotz or Perspex posted about this back in 2016, and I could probably use the search function to find it here. But I haven't!

Far Out Magazine seems to have a history of lazily reusing old material. The fact that it was incomplete, and nothing was in Bernard's words, didn't exactly fill me with confidence.

watching the movie flight risk, there's a part where a pilot of a small plane is listening to blue monday.
later on, he also sings some verses of it.
