  • The Script! Yay!

  • Woo woo woo lads. Did you ever think that you would have sold 20 million records?

  • No, I think it dumbfounds us every day that the success - from our meagre beginnings to

  • where we are today. I mean, I remember us having 20 CDs to give away at our very first

  • show, and we didn't even sell them. We just gave them away.

  • We were left with 19.

  • I think we were left with 19. Yeah, they all got returned. It's just been fantastic, you

  • know, and again for all those people who invested in us, we're back. We're back with a new album,

  • and just to show that we're in this for the right reasons. We absolutely love music, and

  • we're back with No Sound Without Silence, and the first single is Superheroes off that as well.

  • Really super positive song because we're feeling great right now.

  • And by the way, the single. I'm not just saying it. It is ridiculous. You've absolutely nailed it.

  • Thank you.

  • In fact, I wanted to sing you a little bit of a song.

  • Go on. Go for it.

  • Every day, every hour Turn the pain into power

  • Well, I want you on my team.

  • I mean, that is... Is that kind of because your surname's Power? Is that a bit of a punny?

  • Or is it just like

  • It is me.

  • Irish Power, yes.

  • Power is the pain. He has a tattoo of them. They met me, and his name is Power. You know

  • what I'm saying? So we had to put it in the song.

  • Glen Power!

  • Yeah-ha! Superpower.

  • Yeah yeah.

  • So the super thing, the superpower thing, is because you went on stage and you realised

  • that you had lots of power?

  • No no. I think it's we get to meet an awful lot of fans, an awful lot of people up the

  • road. We're one of those bands that we are a lifestyle band, which is quite different

  • to an awful lot of bands out there. People turn to The Script music because they may

  • be going through a break up that's usually when you find us, or like in Hall of Fame when you

  • want some motivation. It's nice to have an escape, but it's also nice to have a song

  • that empowers them a little bit, and for us it's the average people doing extraordinary

  • things that are our superheroes. I guess the song was just a tip of the hat of us creating that

  • energy coming off stage, but also wanting to say to people, you know, if someone's going

  • to knock you down, knock you down, knock you down every time. You're just going to get

  • stronger if you can stick through it.

  • Okay, so going cliché. Superheroes. If we could take two and blend them into one to

  • make some mega-heroes super thing.

  • I'm blending Catwoman with Wonder Woman to make some kind of Wonder Cat. Yeah.

  • Oh, I'm just thinking this.

  • I'm thinking this as well, yeah.

  • With Wonder Woman, you take the bra off, you wonder where they've gone.

  • Clever.

  • It's Wonderbras. It's Wonderbras. Isn't it that you take them off, you wonder where they've

  • gone? Isn't that what a Wonderbra is?

  • I've got to touch on it. It's probably really boring, but The Voice. Is it a little bit

  • like watching your ex-girlfriend with a brand new boyfriend on TV?

  • Only the boyfriend's uglier than the last one, so... Yeah, I know what you're saying.

  • Do you know what I mean? With Ricky all sitting in your chair.

  • Like I said there was uglier than the last one.

  • Not at all. I genuinely am really... I enjoyed it this season as well. I enjoyed getting

  • Saturday nights back in fairness. Do you know what I mean? They did a great job on the show,

  • and oh what a move for Will as well winning this year. Totally. I texted him straight

  • after literally as it was going on.

  • You only won because I wasn't there.

  • It's exactly what I said.

  • That's the way the text went.

  • I've met Will before, and he's just a little bit woah. He's kind of a little bit like a robot.

  • Does he text like a robot as well?

  • No. Well kinda yeah. He's very short with them, so they'll be like one word answers.

  • Thanks, smiley face. Or you don't get that. You just get a smiley face. If I went through all the texts

  • I have with Will, probably about half of them would just be smiley face.

  • I wonder if you add them all together, would you get a whole email out of them?

  • Probably.

  • A sentence.

  • You'd get a full sentence.

  • It'd be quite cool to put that together.

  • But congratulations as well because he's number on this week. Smashing it.

  • It's my birthday.

  • Smashing it.

  • With America by the way, you're absolutely killing it. You must have got some cool selfies

  • along the way. Can we have like a favourite selfie?

  • Favourite selfie. Jennifer Aniston I got one.

  • That was cool.

  • Paul McCartney was amazing.

  • She looks lovely in person too because some don't. She looks really good.

  • She is lovely in person.

  • Can you tell me who didn't look so nice, or is that really mean?

  • That would be mean if I did that.

  • It'd be honest.

  • No, we can't really.

  • Who didn't look so nice?

  • You don't have to think that hard about it.

  • Who?

  • Or do you know of someone off the top of your head or something?

  • I know exactly. I remember when and all.

  • Go on you may as well tell her, break the news first.

  • Ah yeah, don't say that, she will definitely see this.

  • Don't say that.

  • OK, don't say that.

  • I want to get a selfie with Obama. That's what I want. That'd be awesome. Or the Pope.

  • I bet he's probably got one of those long poles he carries around with him.

  • Yeah, just to get the distance yeah.

  • It's so like the Pope, the Queen or Obama. Just one you'd never ever expect. Like me

  • and the Queen. Selfie!

  • Has the Pope done a selfie? I wonder, has he?

  • No, but I saw the Dalai Lama do one the other day. It looked awesome.

  • He did. He did a selfie the other day with somebody in the audience. It was wicked looking.

  • Cool, and guys, we touched on it a bit earlier. Come on. Give me your best accent, your London

  • accent. I want to make you look good. Come on.

  • What a geezer.

  • Where are you going, love?

  • Why is it that everyone turns into Oliver Twist when they do this?

  • Because you have to do it. it's the only one we know.

  • You start to sound like your man from Mary Poppins. What's his name?

  • Dick Van Dyke.

  • Dick Van Dyke, yeah.

  • Mary Poppins!

  • Give me your best Irish.

  • So anyway, I was just really tired right now, and I really want to go into bed and have

  • an Irish coffee.

  • That sounded American.

  • Not quite sure why I turned into a stretch armstrong right there.

  • Say potato once even in that, and it might sound Irish.

  • Why did your tuck your chin in like? I want to know why this happened. You have more chins

  • than a Chinese phonebook. No you did when you did that. You look lovely, and then you

  • did that.

  • She actually sounded American.

  • Well you know, it's kinda similar.

  • Well thanks so much guys. You're going to be brilliant and love the new single.

  • Thank you so much.

  • High five Script!

The Script! Yay!
