I love hearing people say in interviews, "well, what I've learned is..." HONESTY. rare.
Yes, Danny's honesty is remarkable when he could easily pretend to be above it all. He's always been very willing to be candid about his weak spots..haha, such as the "Weird Science" video (also a Huff Post interview clip)
danny been hitting the gym
Yup noticed that as well. Looks like he's been in the gym consistently.
i bet the gym probably helps with the writing a lot.
PapiDarko Danny's been like that sense Oingo Bingo.
@@gabrielproteus3172 yes he has, hes really built in the US Festival video. Check it out on UA-cam.
really? and where do you see that? Just because he's thin?
danny is ripped from holding up tim burtons entire career
where?
Nah. Burton’s a genius now though
@@Zzzk23 because he learned from Danny
Danny has been ripped since his Oingo Boingo days,.. i thnk he was one the the kids that got picked on for being small and then got jacked in his teens and 20s, cause the dude has always looked like he could bust boulders with his palms lol
On his Instagram you can find some videos where you get a peek of his bare chest. He STILL looks good without a shirt on?!😵
I've loved Danny's art since the earliest days of Boingo but I particularly love his kind, self-effacing honest way of expressing himself.
I imagine Danny getting mad at you would be terrifying and intense, like he would be able to just rip you to shreds verbally and knock you totally out of place.
It's also weird to think of Burton getting mad.
I would be so scared lol
Yea and Tim getting mad at you would be sort of the opposite probably. He wouldn’t talk and be cold lol and silent. And stare lol at you
Hopefully he does that to the homewrecker who’s accusing him of sexual assault.
Why is Danny so buff, he is a fucking film composer. I just imagine someone being like “aw man i forgot my piano” then Danny is like “np i got ya” then carries it across his shoulders like a water bottle case from Walmart
He’s a health freak. He wants to stay alive for as long as possible so he can continue to make as much music as possible. Probably takes loads of cognitive supplements as well, judging from his IG he’s a fan of lion’s mane mushrooms. Plus he’s a rock star as well as a film composer and rock stars have to look good when they take their shirt off.
This comment made me laugh out loud
Watching him speak is somehow so oddly satisfying
“Calm down and deal with it better” That’s a mantra that is both fantastic and practical.
Danny elfman be like you even lift bro?
Deep, dark, secrets: sounds like an Oingo Boingo song.
🎶”nasty habits...”🎵
THIS IS HIS PRIVATE LIFE!!! THIS IS HIS PRIVATE LIFE!!! PLEASE TAKE HIM OUT OF HERE!
Probably one of the best speaking and singing voices in the history of music
I couldn't be a bigger fan of Danny's. As a small-time composer, he has single-handedly inspired me more than anyone, ever. Thank you for the interview, and wow, Danny, you are looking fit!
+Eric Watkins Yeah, right? Wow, he's like 62 and his body still looks great.
He's truly an inspiration for many ppl for different reasons. Even though I want to smash his face for not doing a boingo reunion lol. Dammit
This was around the time that Nomi Abadi got horny for him and tried to steal him from his wife and now she’s accusing him of sexual assault because he wouldn’t dump Bridget Fonda for her.
that's the deepest voice I've ever heard 😂 I imagined something entirely different coming from Danny Elfman lol 😂
Pretty effeminate sounding too.
yes!
He's a natural baritone with an incredible range.
Ditto!
@@twinsmm1actually you're right
I just learned something insightful! You never know where you land on the internet when it comes to hearing something that will help you grow alittle bit more!
+Matt Donaldson same here, the taking a step back to see things from a different persoective made me reflect on many things...
Same. :)
What a brilliant human being.
yes and yes
Hot damn Danny's been lifting. Fantasticly clever and talented guy, his music literally shaped most of my life. Love this dude!
Also what he said about stepping back from a situation is heckin real. Repect
@@milorodriguez3739 Ironically he should have stepped back from Nomi Abadi around the time that this happened. She tried to wreck his marriage and now she’s trying to assassinate his character.
I love his voice!
I love Danny’s sort of dark themed compositions.. anything from nightmare to scissor hands
His realization is correct: Certain falling-outs with friends can seem less important once you’ve had enough years and distance from them.
Dude made the Spider-Man theme. Enough said.
Spider-Man theme? You sure went to the bottom of the barrel for that one.
@@corvusdelicti8853 And they said that a hero would save us...
Danny Elfman - More like ‘Daddy Elfman’ AMMIRITE 😎💜⚡️
Brilliant man who should never be embarrassed ever.
Couldn't help but Notice that Danny's Smile looks like Jack Nicholsons Joker
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed he has a Joker smile.
Danny has a ton of emotional intelligence. Would love to see a side project with Maynard!
You just blew my mind
He's got those "I'm way, WAY smarter than you" glasses. And ya know what? They work!
1992 - I was working for pianist Mike Lang as his administrative assistant.......I was gone one day from the office (at the funeral for drummer Bob Raitt) - got back to the office, called the service - I had missed a call from Danny Elfman
love this guy!
would do anything to see one more show
I'm so glad they reconciled because 'Mars Attacks!' is one of his very best scores.
Did they purposely put that book behind him? Behind Danny Elfman, there's a book titled, "Enemies." LOL
Danny is such a great and awesome composer!
Of all the films to have a falling out with, it had to be Burton's best: Ed wood. Howard Shore did a great job, but what a disappointing coincidence.
danny i love you music
Nancy Lopez Reyes same here Nancy
Man his old 80s videos look like he’ll play a great Joker !!
I had heard that they had a falling out around the time of Ed Wood which explains why Howard Shore did the music instead (another great composer) however I didn't know the details of it until watching this.
He went into it more recently: Danny was supposed to do Jack's singing AND speaking voice in Nightmare Before Christmas, and Tim agreed. Disney pushed back and didn't want Danny doing Jack's speaking voice and Tim capitulated to Disney and didn't have Danny's back, so Danny felt hurt that Tim didn't support him and the speaking voice for Jack was dubbed over by Chris Sarandon.
I love this man
I like you, Danny.
Danny composed the most badass Batman theme because…he IS Batman, lol
Imagine Burton and Elfman marooned on a deserted island together....then Tom Hanks washes up. DOH!
@@blaineedwards8078what?
good man
3:30 great, unique advice
Danny Elfman is cool. He does a great job writing music. Though one thing i don't get is that when Elfman had a falling out with Tim Burton, they patched up their working relationship between each other right away and continued working together. But when Elfman had a falling out with Sam Raimi on Spider Man 2, the two did not work togther again until Oz the Great and Powerful. They're currently working on Doctor Strange in the Multi Verse of Madness. But I wonder why it is Elfman and Burton patched up their working relationship better than Elfman's working relationship with Raimi. Elfman and Raimi did not work with each other again until a decade later verses when Elfman had a falling out with Burton.
Danny is a Gemini, Tim a Virgo and Sam the Scorpio...nuff said
Don't forget, he did the Fable soundtrack.
What a Career
Danny Elfman should write a score for Ed Wood, even though it’s been a billion years since, I mean, could you imagine??!
He knows Steven Spielberg,John Williams,Robert Zemeckis and Alan Silvestri?...that's Awesome
Danny Elfman also fell out with Sam Raimi after Spider-Man 2.
Wow I’m going to use this advice for my current relationship
Imagine Nightmare without Danny. It would be shit.
This is really wise.
Alice and wonderland and other things is great collaboration
When composers go to the gym
David Lynch and Angelo Badamalenti
I like Elfman's music, but I can't imagine Ed Wood without Howard Shore's score. It is some of my favorite music.
Sounds like Dexter
Good fact checking there.
MONEY is and answer
So soft spoken but the stuff that goes thru his head ,WOW ! have you listened to his latest music ?
Jerry Goldsmith and Star Trek
explain to me why this guy isn't as revered as mozart or beethoven?
Some people claim all his music sounds the same, which I don't get. Like any form of art, everyone has their own distinctive style and there's nothing wrong with that. But even then, how does the Spider-Man theme sound even remotely like The Simpsons theme or Edward Scissorhands' score. Honestly, those people are hypocrites IMHO because if I said the same thing about Hans Zimmer or John Williams, they would freak out.
@@fanime1 i disagree. i can tell a hans zimmer or john williams score just as easily as a danny elfman score. they all have their unique signatures and fluorishes
@@fanime1 All of his music has this sort of hyperactive quality that makes it addictive. Maybe he even found a scientific formula for it.
Sam Rami pissed him off on spiderman 3 that's why no 3 music by him
He looks like Jed the Fish from KROQ
What's this? What's this?
Joel Astorga there's colour everywhere
Saffron Pinfold what's this? There's white things everywhere.
There's magic in the air
whats that
@@adamnqueen3644 @Ohh Yesss @Corvus Delicti @The Internet Astronauts the monsters are all missing, and the nightmares can't be found... and in this place there seems to be good feeling all around!! (one year later hahahah)
If anyone wants to know what the following our was over, apparently Danny wanted to have his name in the title for nightmare before Christmas due to the fact he spent so much time working on it (the final film is titled Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas, but he wanted it to be Tim Burton and Danny Elfman’s)
Makes sense it would be about that, they've given interviews about how there was no story, just an idea about characters living in Halloween town. Danny wrote all the songs straight away, based off how he felt as apart of his band. I love knowing more about all the people to were involved in making this. Also well done to Henry Selick 👏 Bravo all!!!!!!
He's adorable
You Don't Know About The Tulip Tiptoes This Halloween And The Tractor Is Gassing Up For The Hubers Farm Hay Ride
Danny was of a mind to make him a moogie, but then a Purple bandit stepped in.
I wish I could do that ...i'm so bad with anger, resentment, and imagining the worst of ppl. I *should* take a cue from Danny, heh
Two scary guys to be playing bury the hatchet with.
he's such a devil!
he sure does have the smile for it
Didn’t he play a devil,....
@@BJ-mb2ug yes, he did ;)
Tell me your secrets...
it sounds like a yo yo
What a idiotic line of questioning, as though men who work together for a number of years or projects end up BFFs, confiding secrets in one another and cuddling.
eh it's something the clueless general public always thinks when 2 public figures are business partners.
@@lilmrscutsie4524 - It's a chick thing. It's like the same sort of stupid "feelings" questions they ask professional athletes
Wow this interviewer is not interested in an interview that is nuanced and respectful. It is more gossipy.
The Forbidden Zone!!!
Descendant of the Sacred Clown
tell me your secrets! tell me your name! i wont tell! i wont tell!
I didn't think the music in Ed Wood was bad at all.
Please go back to working with Timmy even if it's with social distance through zoom calls
I’m afraid Tim’s gonna get cancelled because his movies are too white
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 That's something I noticed, yeah. I didn't want to say anything. But now you have so you ruined it! Just kidding.
@@msd5808 I mean, can you blame him for not wanting to go out of his way to blackwash traditionally white characters seeing that a lot of his movies take place in like Victorian England or similar? On the other hand I recall that one of the heroes on Mars Attacks was a black guy.
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 I think Samuel Jackson is in Miss Peregrine but he has scary eyes, so that could be interpretted as a microaggression of some sort. Also the Oopma Loompas were Hispanic, and the mayor of Gotham black
@@msd5808 So Black people can’t ever be villains, they must always be portrayed as perfect angels or something? That’s pretty racist.
Burton had to be the bigger guy and reach out first. And this after Elfman snapped from stress.
1:32 I used to joke about this. I just assume he's doing the same here. Or should I view this in another light? I'm not so sure in this current day and age. These Hollywood types are so sus.
You know, there was a time when we think Elfman rocked. And he looks normal here. Look at him now. Something is off.
These people all should be embarrassed of themselves and if they have integrity and revoke the whole industry. No one did. None.
I would say he was talking about Nomi Abadi but this video took place around the time he had just met her and before any of the inappropriate behavior she claims had happened.
Looks like Joe Maddens brother
Holy shit that is a gorgeous woman. Someone please get me her name.
:)
He needs a new wife. Me! I’m a trade up.
😭😭
He already turned down a film composer half his age to stay with his wife and he’s even getting accused of sexual harassment in revenge because of it.
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 DAMN NN NN WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT
@@TimBurtonsSkeleton Rolling Stone article
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 oh i dont trust those💀 thats the same company that promoted CP
Generally speaking I am a Huffington Post supporter though I don't always agree with their point of view. Huffington Post just announced that they will no longer publish Donald Trump stories in their Politics section and will instead publish them in their Entertainment section. I am not a Trump supporter and there is very little he could say that would change my mind. That is a very dangerous move and a monumental mistake. If they do not retract this position, I will no longer support Huffington Post. He is a United States presidential candidate who is leading in the polls and deserves a fair voice. What Huff Post has done is unAmerican and should not be tolerated by any credible news corps. You have the weekend to change your stance Huff Post and then the BOYCOTT is on.
John Kaitlyn I understand what you're saying. But they are still giving him a pulpit to stand on and not censoring his speech.
+John Kaitlyn What you don't seem to get is that Trump only wants publicity, he doesn't want to become president, even he knows he doesn't have the political skills or the means to become one therefore I agree this is just all a media stunt
Risk Romer I think that definitely was the case months, if not weeks ago, but I wouldn't be surprised if the lead he's had in the polls has changed that. He does have a chance, of course there's still a lot of time for him to completely alienate his base.
If you are a HuffPo supporter, that's your first mistake. The second is thinking Trump isn't doing this for attention.
I missed the part where you had something to say about this interview with Danny Elfman.
What a puncheable gob.
