Favorite album John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band Favorite artist Haruomi Hosono First record Weezer - Blue Album Next record Steely Dan - Pretzel Logic Catchiest tune right now: The Great Escape movie theme Hottest newcomer: Kirin J Callinan Alex Cameron The Garden Guilty pleasure: Coldplay - A Rush of Blood to the Head Best music video: Blur - Coffee And TV Best concert: Jonathan Richman Favorite song of all time: Greg Phillinganes - Lazy Nina (written by Donald Fagen of Steely Dan)
Man, Mac's sure got a great taste in music. Fantastic picks regarding Weezer, Coldplay and Blur, Coffee and TV is also my favorite video of all time. And actually, if you listen to tracks like Hold on or Look at me on Plastic Ono band, you can certainly hear where Mac sort of picked up his jangly, beautiful guitar sound.
Mac just showed how he could be a great radio DJ in this interview. His calm demenour, well spoken delivery and extensive musical knowledge makes him a good fit for it :D
parachute and a rush of blood are both really cool albums, nothing guilty about it in my opinion. coldplay making shitty music now doesn't reduce the quality of their earlier stuff - i don't understand why so many people shit on coldplay altogether nowadays.
I love this man hah. A rush of blood to the head is such an amazing album. Got it on vinyl and there's nothing better than smoking a blunt and belting out the tunes.
If you pause at about 3:32 you can see that the video editor split the screen's color grading to make the window darker and the room lighter, great detail bud =)
Plastic Ono Band is legendary. No other album I’ve heard has the emotional impact of that album. It’s not my favourite ever, but I wouldn’t blame anyone if it was theirs.
I had to come by to see who's this guy after reading a few comments about him. I'm 24, but it's very nice to hear another young person talking about Greg Phillinganes, one the premier Los Angeles studio keyboardists since the 70s, especially Lazy Nina which is a great track, and of course, Donald Fagen, one my musical heroes, part of Steely Dan, a band that will never die. 1970s-80s music is the best!
literally just bought a beat up copy of Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic at a thrift store today, gave a little fist bump here in the library when I heard that haha
Whenever I listen to Mac demarcos music, I think of depression, but after this video, he should start a damn asmr channel because my god his voice so nice/smooth, and he sounds like a really nice dude or a friend that everyone should have

He's like Damon Albarn's countryside cousin
Seba Aguilar lmao truee
lmao
Seba Aguilar COUNTRY MAC, COMIN' TO THE BIG CITY
Holy shit. What a fantastic simile, I hadn't thought of that before.
Yes!

And actually, if you listen to tracks like Hold on or Look at me on Plastic Ono band, you can certainly hear where Mac sort of picked up his jangly, beautiful guitar sound.
interesting dig.. thank you sir
I'll actually have to pay closer attention to the Steely Dan stuff, I'm not too familiar with it.
Am I the only one who hears a lil John Lennon in Demarcos singing voice?
Sharlenn La Yeah but their first two albums are gold
I might have left the oven on
Mac just showed how he could be a great radio DJ in this interview. His calm demenour, well spoken delivery and extensive musical knowledge makes him a good fit for it :D
scaredypicker nice profile pic
such a chill guy! Mac should have a podcast after his album so you can just listen to his voice and fall alseep!
makes sense.
always heard Lennon in Mac's vocals.
I love him rocking in the chair like a sweet old lady.
damn, mac mentioning blur. shit just made my day
O man'! It's getting real. New album hype train.
It's been so long since I've watched a Mac interV.
h

staxstix even x&y had some great material
Coldplay is great overall. They're new EP is Quality
Viva was the best one tbh
Its simple... they're sellouts... I mean common they collabed with the fucking chainsmokers...
Rhea B I hate to tell you this, but every band is a sellout.
I love this man hah. A rush of blood to the head is such an amazing album. Got it on vinyl and there's nothing better than smoking a blunt and belting out the tunes.
Man i'am so agree !! Best Coldplay album (after Parachute :) )
rush of blood is the true masterpiece, parachutes is a clear second
Those first three albums are all beautiful, but Rush of Blood to the Head and X&Y are both tied for my favorite Coldplay album.
What do you guys think about a moon shaped pooled, it comes first if you ask me
I wish I had Mac demarco's voice.It sounds so calm
what a beautiful and wholesome young man
I see Mac Demarco and Coldplay in the same title, I click. I’m a simple man
Same.
They ask him that guilty pleasure question all the time and answers always with Coldplay
If you pause at about 3:32 you can see that the video editor split the screen's color grading to make the window darker and the room lighter, great detail bud =)
Listening to Mac DeMarco just plain talk is therapeutic
The youtube recommendation algorithm fucking LOVES Mac Demarco. I don't even listen to his music and it recommends me his videos.
Plastic Ono Band is legendary. No other album I’ve heard has the emotional impact of that album. It’s not my favourite ever, but I wouldn’t blame anyone if it was theirs.
Love him mentioning Jonathan Richman. You can tell he’s a huge influence on Mac and his stage presence.
Mac demarco is legit the chillest, coolest guy
He's goofy but mature and weird but cool, definitely proof there isn't only shit music these days
You should see Chris Martin in interviews he is so amazing
I love that he loves The Garden. I love all 3 of them 😭
I’ve been depressed for sometime now. Something about this video gives my soul a little bit of my color back ❤️
I love how he thinks before saying "blue album" like he hasn't said it in every other interview same with the Coldplay question
seeing this amazing soul in 3 months time. there are no words to describe my utter love towards him.
The song "Jealous Guy" by John Lennon sounds very much like a DeMarco track to me.
JadenK check out the Roxy music version
Hold On too
DANCING CHEESE Productions yes LITERALLY everytime I listen to hold on, when John says “COOKIE” it’s sounds identical to Mac
DeMarco sounds like Lennon get it right
JadenK sounds like it could’ve been on this old dog or maybe even hctc
He always talks a lot about Donald Fagen's work in his interviews. Good musician to hold as an inspiration
Man, A Rush Of Blood To The Head is an awesome album, there is nothing guilty about it Mac, I love to hear that record while im driving too.
i only just noticed this was uploaded today damn
I read your comment and then saw what time every comment was posted, I don't think I would've noticed otherwise. I feel lucky lol
A Rush of Blood to the Head is my absolute favorite record, and Mac liking it just boosts his respect levels in my book
love him for mentioning the garden ❤️ my boys
Good on Mac, shouting out The Garden!
Such a good band. Love their new stuff but I’ll listen to all their discography in one sitting.
The reason I was hooked was because his voice reminded me so much of legends.
I love these short interviews with him.
mac got to play with his favorite artist so proud of him ❤️
The garden, omg their audience is so small I didn't think he knew about them ahhh
AvgJane19 they just opened for him a couple months ago at the McKinney plaza!!!
They opened for him back in AZ a few months ago they were funny as hell.
Wow! He loves Mr.Hosono!!! Impressed!!
he is so interesting i've been watching his interviews all day
Didn't expect Mac to give The Garden a shoutout. Hell yeah!
I'm in love with this man
Thankyou Mac
*A Rush Of Blood To The Head* is a masterpiece.
he almost said "it's not really gay" lol 4:23
Not really guilty
i guess I need to clean my ears my often.
thanks for the correction!
2:55 Holy shit!!! I’ve been whistling that song to my dog all week!!!
Plastic Ono Band is a DAMN GOOD album
Aw how sweet is he, he had The Garden open up for him last Friday at radio city music hall and they killed it ❤️🙂
Can't wait for the album.
Respect on The Great Escape reference, such a good movie
I feel like Mac and I have a lot of music that we like in common. Weezer, Blur, Lennon, old Coldplay. Awesome.
Mac.. love this NICE person. the way he talks and hilariousness reminds me of Haruomi Hosono.. yes you're just on your right way. love from jpn.
That Plastic Ono Band pick makes SO MUCH SENSE. Can't believe the influence never occurred to me before...
he makes me so happy
Really well made video. Loved the questions
good stuff, all together, good stuff..
Plastic Ono band! If you listen to hold on you can really hear the influence 😍
I had to come by to see who's this guy after reading a few comments about him. I'm 24,
but it's very nice to hear another young person talking about Greg Phillinganes, one the premier Los Angeles studio keyboardists since the 70s, especially Lazy Nina which is a great track, and of course, Donald Fagen, one my musical heroes, part of Steely Dan, a band that will never die. 1970s-80s music is the best!
My favourite music video is Coffee and TV too, what a guy
I love Mac so much
I died of laughter when the camera switched angles and he re did the intro aahaha
two more weeks until I get to listen to you live!! I'm scared for it to get here because then it will be gone D:
I have the milk cartoon tattoo. Yes! Thank you! Coffee and Tv and Beetlebum are awsome songs!
I fucking love the garden ❤
I could listen to him talk for hours on end
Increíble escucharlo decir que su artista favorito es Hosono😮
So soothing
Perfect favourite album choice
literally just bought a beat up copy of Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic at a thrift store today, gave a little fist bump here in the library when I heard that haha
Love that he plugs The Garden
his voice is so soothing
i love this man so much
I love mac for loving Steely Dan
Im in love with his eyes
Took me 10 extra years to come close to his level of music appreciationisticism. He knows what is up.
so smooth
I love this guy
I obvi love his singing voice but his speaking voice is SO SOOTHING IT’S LIKE SMOOTH JAZZ
this guy can make me smile just by spinning in a goddamn circle
A rush of blood to the head is actually a legit ass record. I can't say the same for the newer stuff
Good interview questions! Simple and easy!
Kindof a relief just watching a kinda normal interview. This was interesting!
Ya gotta love mac
Plastic Ono Band is honestly one of the greatest albums ever made. If you haven't listened to it, go do it right now.
I LOVE MAC DEMARCO ❤
I was random playing coffee and tv on guitar and then he mentioned it haha
Bullshit artist
Pls be a night radio dj Mac you have such a soothing voice!!
That was one of my first albums too, Weezer's Blue Album, from a flea market.
love the shoutout to kirin j and alex cameron
Hosono & Yellow Magic Orchestra? Yes! I love you, Mac.
Great flick, nice n long!
Plastic Ono Band is a great album, 2nd best solo Beatle release after All Things Must Pass
Love this guy
Whenever I listen to Mac demarcos music, I think of depression, but after this video, he should start a damn asmr channel because my god his voice so nice/smooth, and he sounds like a really nice dude or a friend that everyone should have
dude i found aja by steely dan on vinyl at goodwill, so crispy so good
Worlds colliding!! A Rush of Blood to the Head is definitely Coldplay's best album. So awesome that he's into it
mac rocked so hard in this vid
man i love jonathan richman
blue album was my first cd too aww
