He seems so much less weird than I thought he'd be. He's just like so chill and I love it.
Get a grip. Seeming weird is the only ticket in life for talentless clowns to attract brain dead 15 y.o. groupies.
😂😂😂😅😅
kinda my thoughts too.
He’s a Perth boy. I remember years ago when I worked at a Dick Smith on Scarborough beach Rd ( that’s basically radio shack for Americans ) one morning he came to buy a bunch of random leads and cables. Bare foot in a two piece suit. Huge infectious smile, I have to say he was the nicest bloke.
Haha
He's fine to me
Wow that's going back I remember dick smith shops been a while since they've been around
Nice
I love how humble he is. He's just a real good guy. I wish him continued success.
humble ??
Is it chasing money, or getting paid to share their art and talent?
JadenEntridius JadenEntridius you mean nick littlemore?
@@thewiseguy3529 I know what humble means. Get a dictionary and look it up.
Comfortable with himself is what you're looking for.
He looks like someone in the Hunger Games
Salman Farizi watch there videos there straight from the capitol
ha! love luke and The Hunger games! He could be Cinna's side kick with that eye shadow, and he and cinna could probably make a great album together!
Close it down folks! - hilarious.
or Guardians of the Galaxy
@@robvoyles I mean Cinna is played by Lenny Kravitz so that would be hella interesting.
This band is aesthetically brilliant
I'm glad to hear that he loves Japan. I truly love their music as one of Japanese. So honored.
ok
@Raw Sauce this guy is just expressing his appreciation to the artist, why are you being an asshole about it? Let him enjoy it.
@Chris Kaufman period Chris, get em’ !
@@chriskaufman7542 ok
He even looks Asian 😂😂
I love this band so much and they're so DIFFERENT and unique! 'Way to go' and 'on our way home' are on replay right now... SO GOOD!
They are doing exactly the same gimmick with no good voice or music, but hey, can't stop one from being a lobotomized moron
It's crazy how fast 10 years goes. Seems like yesterday...
Точно
.......
4 years later
For me it felt like 20 years
walking on a dream.... we are the people
walking on a dream.... we are the people ..... Way to go
u can tell I'm a true fan
We are the people walking on a dream. ;)
the sleepy jackson is where its at, young steele
We are the people much better in my opinion
Love his voice
@mad dog ???
im a 16 yo in 2022 and i just found these guys and i really appreciate their music.
Im 61 and found them about 6 or 7 years ago and they totally changed my mind about there not any good music being made this century. I think they are fantastic and rock....i was raised by brothers who were diehard beatles guys so i really appreciate his love of the beatles.
I was your age when they first came out and made it big back in the 2000's better late than never check out their older stuff if you haven't yet it's so good
So this video is six years old, and the title is talking about the previous 10 years?! Yeah. There was one of those hits that you probably heard in passing even if it wasn't your channel, but then maybe because of being in Australia you start hearing it again, or imitation versions or knock-offs in television commercials. So you somehow dig it up and realize there was almost an entire career that you didn't pay attention to or notice... But I'm old, so I've been out of touch with the music scene since the 1980s or 90s. And a lot of it was nothing special.
18 in 2024 and they’re music is just it makes me speechless
He has got the prettiest eyes
Yes he does
Glad there are lots of us who appreciate these. Not always commercially accessible to most but I think they’re brilliant.
Last group to hit me the way they do was Jamiroquai back in the 90s. Just a group that stands out doing their own thing. Really great band
Such a great interviewer, well prepared. Luke is top of the list of artists I dream of meeting someday.
Luke seems like he has other things on his mind lol
I think she's annoying him with the over-enthusiasm and the constant stream of woooows.
Why
Sandra look at him , this conversation to him isn’t natural . His music is about being true
@@oscarmiddleton1592 Yeah she seems sweet but you can tell she's not very seasoned. Or just extremely nervous. Fumbling over her words, fake enthusiasm, and at 1:37 she even peaks at the next question on her cue card with the person she's interview seeing it. For a brief moment it actually distracts him from what he's saying.
I'm no expert but it's pretty clear she was not great at being natural
Ginyu Squad ywah probably , still
He is my fave person on the planet
zet walter I so much agree with this. I honestly think he's the coolest person alive.
What about your parents?
theyre dead
have you actually met him? hung out? helped him move?
He was actually a bit of a douche . He and his sister moved to melbourne years ago and he walked around like he owned the place . Our band and other local bands thought he was a toss .
Luke Steele, you have an impressive voice. I'm so glad you exist in my world. In one song you've managed to get to the level before perfect, and that's the best an artist has done in my hear. Alice :D is on here way up.
When he talks about the business part and the money he reminds me of David Bowie, He had went through the same thing when he was Ziggy and with the Spiders from Mars. Their shows were elaborate productions when they toured and as long as the band had everything they wanted and needed on the road and the productions went well they didn't think about the money. When tour was over and all was said and done Bowie was broke. If there was anything left over after it all their manager took it. That was a huge eye opener for David as well as many other artist who have ended up in the same boat. I think that is what Luke is saying here.
similarly with Pink Floyd, the only person who made money playing The Wall shows was Rick Wright, because he'd been fired by Roger, but hired back to play the shows as a session musician, divested from his interest in the band. Everyone else lost millions on the shows.
I know Luke is classed as an Aussie but I can totally here a hint of the Kiwi in his accent too. He is so comfortable in who he is, I love that so much ❤️
Can't wait to see them again....new music I'm so ready.
Interviewer: are you trying to be careful not to give away too much?" Luke: no... lol
luke you better make a new album man please
tom lorance he’s done an album with Daniel Johns (from Silverchair). It’s called Dreams - they played at Coachella this year czcams.com/video/bUc_3GzTc2c/video.html
he has it's two vines and it gets better, too.😀
he has..his album sounds even better it's called "Two Vines"
Omg I’ve never heard him actually talk…hes a beautiful and awesome and talented person. ❤ 😮
This is such a great interview - you can tell that he relaxes after a while as the questions are actually interesting for him.
Soy muy Fans de Empire of the Sun. Sigo a ese duo australiano desde el 2012 porque Amo Su musica. Saludos desde Honduras!!!
Q música insipradora
Ok
I have their 2 albums on CD, still blown away.
"Ice on the dune" is a classic album!!
i literally love luke steele hes the best and his character/humour is a vibe
How does he have SUCH A GOOD STYLE?!?!
I just discovered these guys and stumbled on one of their videos. Love stumbling into rad art. I so it a lot and find more and more that I stop and recognize the moment I am actually falling in love with a band, I love you CZcams for how you somehow feed me what I want and then once in awhile you introduce something new.
I loved their first 2 songs and have just discovered their others. Hooked also!
Exactly how I felt when I discovered them late 2020 😆
i love their music :)
Oh my god he looks amazing.
jackrabbit jes,soo sexy😍!
Yes he does
if i had a dime for everytime he says" ........yeahhh.." and gets away with it....HAHA
millions
Buckingham, McCartney, Japan... you guys are awesome!
Anxiously waiting Empire to come back to Colombia, for a third time. Love your music Luke!!!
LOL all my characters I create online have Steele as their last name .😁❤✌ .. Luke is such a inspiring musician I love anything he creates. 💯
Heather Silk 😘😘😘😘 Ty darling !
The girl doing the interview was really good. Unlike many reporters, she really knew what she was talking about.
I think we have yet to see the best this guy has to offer.
Love his music so talented
If this hasn't been discontinued, it likely means a realease in 2022 when things get back to normal. Quite understandable not releasing an album this year or last year, not to mention they've taken this long before anyway. Please let it be true! I want to hear new music and see them live next year!
_when things get back to normal..._ the optimism in this comment!
@@Smorgasbord. Yeah things *were* looking up, at least here in Sweden as you might relate to. This reality check hit me like a truck :(
As Luke would say, I'll leave a light on
@@cherrytofu8939 Fingers crossed that life will get a little easier despite the chaos. 💕
sadly in 2023 no new music from them
He really became animated after she mentioned Sir Paul. Quite honest about meeting Paul as well.
i love luke steele omgggg his music & voice is the best
I love how awkward luke is hahaha
Carla Arancibia Suazo it's like he's super awkward one on one but on stage he shines. You can tell interviews are out of his comfort zone. And I love how he starts to answer a question and you can see the thoughts in his head are so much deeper than he can put into words.
yeahh...
I thought he had kind of a rockstar vibe. He looked pretty smooth to me.
Awkward? How?
He’s being thoughtful about his answers. You may be projecting. :)
Acá en Lima Perú. se escucha sus canciones de Empire on the sun, por radio doble nueve .99.1fm.
He is an original and magical musician. There is no one else like him in the world can compare. Very good looking too!❤
He’s trying to explain that they’re broke. So unfortunate for these incredibly talented blokes
lol cage the elephant in the background
Amaury Lannes auzzies
That's awesome
UT now I can't focus on the interveiw haha
@TheBlackestImp Trouble
I was about to ask who is that playing in the background lmao!
Loving every minute cause you make me feel so alive
Alive
So unique so original so full of feelings and beauty and art and dance and WAHHH!!! I love EOTS love the make up love the costumes love the performance art love it all worship it all
Love his music!!! Great artist!!!😊
I'm still kicking myself that I didn't get to see them back in 2014 when they came to Puerto Rico, the one and only show they've ever done down here.
Them eyes and voice very awesome n unique! I love these guys!!!!!
Luke the force is strong in you, i luv your Music and you have a brilliant mind so rule it !! yeahh !!
Wow that voice of his something else amazing
they are such a great band love it
I love his energy!
Music is beautiful.
Luke's a real artist. She's a cute interviewer
Charisma overload
I met them in Cancún, Empire of the Sun.
Make another album I have been here since the beginning.
I came on CZcams to see if there was any new music 😪
Until than I will have walking on a dream and standing on the shore in my phone🤣
Updated: way to go was one I had not heard yet💃🏿
I like how they didn't put any music over the interview its good
He is so handsome. ❤️
I think he is going bald
He is not like other guy. He is cool and good mind😊
And sexy ... like, born with it sexy.
Looks like a gay guy from shrek
@@WarthDader74 Ya think?
Wish he'd make another Sleepy Jackson album
I love him...greet music awesome voice. ...!!!!
Okay can we all appreciate that in the background Cage The Elephant is playing “Punching Bag”?
Great band. They do their thing ❤
They made a new album. It is called "On Our Way Home (EP)".
Clark Clements it's AMAZING!
its not an album.. you even wrote its an EP.. xd
i love luke and the good songs
Even with no hat I still picture him with it. He’s just sooo cool looking... he’s the future and the past at the same time
Su voz es poderosa
I’m a super fan boy from the USA 🇺🇸
Come back please. World tour. If so thank you. If not . Thank you for what you have done. I'll always be a fan .
His parents raised him well. They should be very, very proud. I am 61yrs old, influenced heavily by an older brother 9yrs my senior. So to me there are the Beatles and then way down, down is everyone else, so i know he was influenced and inspired by the best there ever was. I am very excite by distant rumors of a new Empire of the Sun album or song possibly coming, but im really just hoping to get the chance to perhaps see them live....bucket list item for this old classic rock guy. Fingers crossed...a tampa fla, show maybe....???? Best band since the new milinium i think...even though i just found them not many years ago. CZcams....put that old Ibizza video back up....walking on a dream/we are the people. That video change my life and my thinking about new music. Peace everybody
In Afghanistan they say when someone is kind; they had a lot off love
"Way to Go" has to be one of the best sounds ever. from the lyrics to the sound.. Brilliant.
Mi amor platónico
Love him, and he's very handsome and even more the older he gets. #weloveluke 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Something special about this one. ❤
That was really cool
Love the music
I was just finding about this band! Holy shiit
This is actually a really great interview. Good questions.
Cool! Ich liebe seine Stimme und seine Songs!!! 😘
Funny coincidence, but the video I watched right before this was Luke in 2006 while he was still just in The Sleepy Jackson. He talks about music being a business and not an art form. Clearly an idea he's been marinating on for a long time.
Jim Henson studios! Can this guy get any cooler!? Love their creativity! Blows me away!
Es un hombre diferente m.encanta su estilo ❤los amo🎉
We need more music
I hear Cage the Elephant in the background, nice.
I FEEL SO LUCKY BECAUSE I HAVE EMPIRE OF THE SUN AND BTS AT THE SAME TIME AND IT FEELS LIKE SO MUCH GOOD MUSIC IS COLLABING IN MY MIND I'M HAPPY THANKS GUYS
I can’t stop playing living on a dream. 🎉
He is so interesting to look at !
Walking on a dream album
I knew was some n special
Would love to see a podcast with him.
legend!
I love your videos Empire!!!!!
Talent this guy has.
I am happy for them they made it to the top
Damn, video uploaded on my birthday
Love how he quotes Joe Walsh.
I would love to hear his non-business version of music, would be awesome!
You can, it’s called The Sleepy Jackson
