I appreciate that his music is not mysogynistic And, that he is a gorgeous man. Also, he's very smart , to say something really intelligent in a language that is not your first language is not an easy thing to do.
Most Scandanavian people do. In fact, many people outside of The Americas do , majoritively, but esp. The Scandinavian , Swiss , & Dutch/German/Belgium people. People in the Americas (with the exception of Portuguese and those that speak it in the Southern most part of S.America, are the WORST versed in language in the entire World out of all 1st and 2nd world countries...even worse than plenty of 3rd world countries. Take that on for size. People get so brainwashed to be arrogant, lazy, and unnecessarily learnt here in the U.S. & our 2 continents here.
@@lowamc , Dang, my bad for all those spelling errors above. I edited the mistakes. You are being serious, correct? I was saying that 🇵🇹 Portugal DOES have very highly-rated English Speakers. I think that you understood--i just wanted to make sure. Sometimes you can't tell through text if someone is sincere. ...& that is VERY SINCERE. Portuguese People speak English exceptionally well, majoritively. Honestly, it really surprises me just how well the whole World speaks English considering its not their first language ... they don't have to. Portugal doesn't have to either, but they do. Then again Portugal has many intelligent people there. So, youre welcome. Also, I mean no harm against those countries or people in The Americas that DON'T speak English well(I mean, geez, half of The actual United States and Canada doesn't speak English well and they LIVE HERE...FOR DECADES!!! [NOW the people in U.S. and Canada should def.learn English...but anyway...].... i don't mean anything bad about the countries in The Anericas that are poor at English,as I was saying, it just really blows your mind that you can go around The World and hear your own language(Meaning English) spoken so well, but then come back to home where it's the 1st language or even cross over to another border within your continent and not hear it at all! Lol. Oh well...it all started with history. If you really go back far enough, Portugal was very civilized compared to The rest of The Americas in the 1600-1700s and they learned English before The (then not born yet U S.A.) even learned it... British voyagers, sailors, and expeditionists came there before they went many places on The American continents and they traded learning languages with the people and the royals... that just translated through the years and people continued to speak it as a second language there. I'm sure u know that anyway, just sayin...sorry so long.
@@lowamc , look even through example. You understood my 1st comment, and most people from The U.S.A. wouldn't even understand what I meant. That proves how well you understand and speak English,plus how smart you are.
Janne-K my mom bought me tickets to go with my son’s mother to see them that same year. It was an amazing show and we sat on the wall sharing intimate stares and kisses. It was perfect.
It's too late for me. I heard Ville Valo sing in an Apocalyptica song called Bittersweet and he had an amazing voice. This was back in 2017. (Right now) In 2021 I actually looked up his band. I fell in love with it and the lyrics of his album, Razorblade Romance because it touched me. I was in love with this girl and I still am till this day. I have gotten closer and closer to this girl and we started to have serious conversations about life and eventually we started talking about our problems in life. I hope she is going to be a part of my future. Anyway the point is, it's too late for me to see them in a concert. It wasn't going to happen anyway because I am only 15.
I remember when I met HIM back in 2008 at the Hot Topic in Hollywood. It was a signing that they had since Venus Doom has just released. It was an amazing experience. I still have the poster with all their autographs.
Why is he giggling so much?! It's nice and cute, but somehow I'm not used with this "happiness" coming from him and from just one interview! I swear to God, this is the first time I see this man giggling so much.
I been a HIM fan for a long time I remember discovering them while watching Viva la Bam and right after the show was over I went on the computer and started listening to them and my first reaction was these guys are awesome I was even lucky enough to see them in concert during there Venus doom tour
IDK if he was half kidding, but my mom really enjoys this music--she even bought me HIM's albums when I was a teen. We used to listen to them in our car and had much fun =D My happy childhood was related to this music in a way, for which I'm really thankful. Thank you, Ville, for making your music like this
he is so witty, sagacious and a pleasure of an interlocutor i am amazed, i used to download lots of their videos and live clips but def should have seen more of their interviews in the 2000s (even though my english wasnt that good back then)
One of the few interviewers that doesn't annoy me! Anyway, it's so great to hear something relatively new from him. He looks happy, meaning I'm happy. Thanks for posting!
Ville should start to write a book! Of course i need his music like i need air,but it's so easy to imagine him as a great writer...and i would definitely buy it and treasure it :) He...IS.
Am I the only one that knows HIM before I knew who Bam was? I heard them when in Oslo and it was a friend playing a bitchen cover of Chris Issak. Was way better than the original and I thought this is seriously the best voice and band I have heard in ages. The CD I bought had a cover of don't fear the reaper also which was spooky and I kinda dug it but not as much as that song. Next album blew me away though. Then the logo started popping up everywhere and I start seeing it on the skate videos my sister watched and it was CKY and had a HIM video in it. Bam was a funny fucker back then. I seen him skate a few times with my sister and the way he fell off his board I found hilarious. He was so lithe. It's hard to explain his falls. I saw him a couple years ago and he looked like shit. He was fat, obnoxious and wasted. Was in a band now and I guess trying to be like Ville he had to go that route. Gotta say he was a better skater and even though I don't know him at all, I kinda felt sorry for him. He was surrounded by losers. Half of them were on heroin and looked like AIDS. People just don't know when to let go....I hope that Bam guy can get with it and cut that shit out of his life. He can still be Bam and have fun but man we grow up so fast physically. I am 39 now and was in my 20s back then. By 35 it's kind of downhill. I guess, at least Bam did something with his life that's pretty rad. He was paid to be a guy growing up and being dumb. Fun. And last time I saw HIM Ville just read a book onstage half the show. It was funny but also pretty boring. Whatever. Saw them in their prime many times. Been wondering what's up with them and was hoping they had a new album out. Maybe this year?
CaptainMyCaptain unfortunately they announced their break up about a month ago. They're doing a farewell tour but it seems it's only in Europe which is a shame for me living in the us.
He was so charmig, smart and entertaining, and most of all his voice and music were unique and great. PS: I'm a straight male 😁 Now I'm 40 years old still carrying a heartagram tattoo on my forearm
" I believe in emotions rather than the binary codes" I must quote that, oh being in love, he said its nice. I do hope he has someone that loves him for him.
1:53 WoW He is really right about that.. Im from Spain and my mother have 60 years old. She dont like any of this music of "today" and she dont know nothing about english language. One day I decided to show her a song of HIM (I think... In Joy and Sorrow) and she liked it. She also said that Villie is a good looking man.
@DarkxSekretxLove not really, that is the common way for the Americans to pronounce his name wrong. There are two l:s which always means that they are also pronounced as a long l (coLLaborate). Another thing is that the i is a short one (dIgital) E could be compared to the word bEg. I think there is no need for such precision but at least I got some time spent :p
I appreciate that his music is not mysogynistic And, that he is a gorgeous man. Also, he's very smart , to say something really intelligent in a language that is not your first language is not an easy thing to do.
yes it is
Oh really? Not even occasionally sadistic? Depends on how you listen to it, I guess.
nymfen No Ville is Finnish guy and we have own. language
he has the cutest smile
A true prince, really
Facts
No, you just idealize him and don't get the irony :p
@@Maria-sy7ej It depends on how you idealize him.
Beauty ♡♡♡
HIM are the most underrated band of all time.
HIM played too much satanism, the public did not understand this game
He has a very wide and experienced english vocabulary and pronounciation, and he has intellectual answers which I find very entertaining to watch

How does she concentrate with him looking at her like that
"we wanted to have rock'n'roll that mothers could enjoy"... well I'm a mother and I really enjoy your music 😅😜
Probably you enjoyed it when you were teenage back in 94!
My mother showed them to me because she likes them too while my father isn't the biggest fan xD
My mom loves this band.
Wonderful, intelligent, romantic and
that voice...🔥 Beautiful, beautiful always, i love you Ville!!! 🖤🖤🖤
my mother brought me to a HIM concert in 2010 when i was 16.
i love you mum
I'm so sad I'll never get to see them live. Unless they ever do a reunion...
Your mom is awesome!!!

Charming man of character, lyric and presence! Very gifted fella!
Love Ville's explanation of romantic,. "Magical thinking and expression,. but NOT candle lit dinners"! My thoughts preceisely
He's so angelical and a such beautiful man 😍♥️ My eternal love Ville Valo ♥️🖤🚬
i love the smiles and certain stares he throws every now and then -- cant help but love this man
people like him, Brandon Lee, Heath Ledger or Keith Flint have something similar in eyes, that clear consciousness, charisma some kind of magnetism.
Keith Flint - yes
For some reason he looks so good with this hair too... The most beautiful man
Er sieht Spitze aus aber sein langes Haar war einfach noch attraktiver....
Как же меняется Вилле когда репортерши бывают симпотными))Сразу таким игривым становится и обаятельным на все 100%))Котик
I remember when I met HIM back in 2008 at the Hot Topic in Hollywood. It was a signing that they had since Venus Doom has just released. It was an amazing experience. I still have the poster with all their autographs.
Ville is such a light and so cute :-)
Such a lovely appearance, his smile, his look, his handsome haircut.. He looks very happy and positive. Gothic Prince
As a mom, I can attest that it's rock and roll that mothers enjoy.
ItoshiiPanda he looks like Alan Tudyk
gross.
I just fell in love with him again.
He seriously gets better looking with age.
12 years that I love HIM and I can't stop! Good job..I'm growing up too with your music!
Why is he giggling so much?! It's nice and cute, but somehow I'm not used with this "happiness" coming from him and from just one interview! I swear to God, this is the first time I see this man giggling so much.
"I hear you hate when people ask about your genre. Can you describe your genre?"
GOD GOD GOD!!! His voice is so sexy, his face is so pretty, OMG, I wanna cry every time I see this guy!!! ♥ :'D
Ahhhhhh. I love how he acts.
He seems so happy and giddy now. I love it. n_n
Ville looks amazing in short hair.
😚
He does and he actually looks amazing in longer hair too lol
I been a HIM fan for a long time I remember discovering them while watching Viva la Bam and right after the show was over I went on the computer and started listening to them and my first reaction was these guys are awesome I was even lucky enough to see them in concert during there Venus doom tour
Loved HIM for 17 yrs, seen 3 times and have a heartagram tattoo 💗 will always be a fan
Ville with short hair
Adi Adichie 😍😍😍
He looks good in every hairstyle 😍
yeah, i know HIM because of bam margera, he is such an inspiration for kids who are skateboarders, and HIM is a great band!
Great personality. :)

1:19 his smile lights my dayy!
I still watch this over and over again
Well, he looks healthy and this makes him look good no matter how long his hair is ^^
he is so witty, sagacious and a pleasure of an interlocutor i am amazed, i used to download lots of their videos and live clips but def should have seen more of their interviews in the 2000s (even though my english wasnt that good back then)
his angel voice
i think he's humor is so smart :)
he's so beautiful
Did anyone else notice that Linde mastered the white girl hair flip?
One of the few interviewers that doesn't annoy me! Anyway, it's so great to hear something relatively new from him. He looks happy, meaning I'm happy. Thanks for posting!
he could be a great model...
I really agree with what he had to say. Especially about how he can't get all messed up like that anymore. It really has shown in their music!
Ville should start to write a book! Of course i need his music like i need air,but it's so easy to imagine him as a great writer...and i would definitely buy it and treasure it :)
He...IS.
A real and beautiful man... :)
I like the power of emotions which is outgoing from this juggler :D
I love you Ville. Yes here in 2020
he just makes me smile for some reason gives me the giggles...shh dont till my husband!
I enjoyed when I was 13 in 1999, and I enjoy them still now, and I am a mother too 😅
These guys musically write some damn good stuff. Their lyrics I sometimes don't always care for but overall they're damn good.
What a wonderful man 💔
"Rock and roll that mothers can enjoy!" lol bless him 😂
What a loving man a true prince
Awesome interview. How amazing is finish music.
If I ever have children, I as a mother will continue to listen to HIM lol I love him!

No - and thankfully I saw them once in concert in 2005 I think - but I listened to them years before that.
I was listening them at 1997
Yes,actually my dad introduced me to HIM.
I knew them from reading Kerrang when I was like twelve. I don't even think I found out who Bam was until I was about fourteen.
God he is so amazing.
I am so in love to this day 3
Какой же Вилле красавчик, обожаю
Wow first time I'm seeing this Interview. Awesome :-)

Whaaaat?!?!?!? This is amazing!!
Plus his English is sooooo flawless.

not really, that is the common way for the Americans to pronounce his name wrong. There are two l:s which always means that they are also pronounced as a long l (coLLaborate).
