    Andrew WK is more than a role model for fun. He is a role model for how people should be. Imagine a world of people who wanted to make others happy and have a good time. What a world! Andrew, you are more than a role model, you're a hero. To me at least.

    This interview was quite a bit more philosophical than I thought it would be and it was pleasantly surprising. Andrew W.K. has a great insight into people and the world that I haven't really heard before.

    For the longest time I've been looking for some kind of motivational self-help approach that I can ascribe to without feeling like a total dick. Andrew WK's concise, almost overly simplified life philosophy is like an island rising out of the sea of contrived, guru bullshit from an industry that has done nothing but exploit the largest renewable resource around: Human desperation.
    Great interview.

    It is hard to player- hate on Andrew. I can see little hints of where this philosophy comes from. I get the sense that his desire to be able to connect on some level with absolutely anyone, is universally authentic and thus so, appealing. If you have your mind made up to not like him, you are going to be unable to do it. That is quite admirable. I think he has taken sour lemons and made the sweetest lemonade ever tasted out of these lemons.

    314 likes 9 dislikes 314/9= about 3% dislikes. This means about 97% of people watching this video or rewatching (23,326 views) so about 10k people if we assume eveyrone saw it twice, though some prolly 3+ and some prolly only saw it once(or osme only half way).
    SO yes Andrew WK you reached at least 10k with this interview. And I do say that your philosophy is grand, I'm not very used to motivating myself for fun as opposed to things I feel I ought to do. I feel I should strive better though, like the piano lesson stuff you did. But for me its videogames, as studies do show videogamers can be pretty smart and stuff, and I value my brain. But your music helps me rock out, its great. I'm still one of the more reserved people though, I hope that I pursue life as enthusiastically as you though.

    This dude is shifty as all hell. But he is still awesome.
    With the caveat that; to party is fine as long as it isn't the only thing you do with your life. Work hard, party hard. Few people in life can turn the full time party into a real living.

      ***** Me? Quite happy, but then I have a good balance between work and play. My statement is just a warning to those that think they can emulate him and be successful. Chances are that you wont be. But if you are passionate enough to make a go of it... party on.
