I'm so glad I'm living in the [Eb] USA
[N] My name's Gash.
He's one of the hardest rocking musicians in the world and in his spare time
He's a motivational performer.
Let's take a look at him in [Bb] concert
[Eb]
[F] [Bb]
Yeah, and [B] that's a ballad.
Please [Eb] welcome Andrew WK
[Db] [Ebm]
[Eb] Uh now we'll [Gb] get to the uh motivational uh performing in just a little bit
But the first thing I want to ask you you've been on the show a couple times I believe and you're a fantastic performer
Thank you.
Uh and and no one rocks harder I think than than Andrew WK.
Thank you
How many I want to ask you how many party songs have you written because I was looking through your catalog of songs and I
Was realizing that partying is a theme with you.
How many party songs do you think you've written songs with the word party in the title?
I guess so.
Yeah
It's time to party right long live the party right party hard right party till you puke right?
Big party big party dance party dance party and a newest one is called party party party
So taking it back to basics you're going back and you're adding more parties
Do you think you'll ever write party party party party and just you know, kick it up a notch?
I think they'll leave that one to you
Okay.
Yeah, that's a party.
Everyone wants to go.
Yeah
Uh, yeah, so, uh, what is the key do you think to writing a good party song because it is a whole genre of rock
What's the key?
So yeah, well every song to me is really a party song in the terms of in terms of celebration
Yes in terms of enjoying yourself and having fun and that's what I have looked for in making music
Uh, but I don't think that there's any particular
Aspect to having fun that is necessary.
I think it's up to each individual to find their own way, right?
And that's been my main focus
Personally and and communicating with other people is to say what do you want to do to have fun?
Well, you know, I've you know
I've watched you here on the show obviously and and then today we were watching a video of a lot of your
DVD of a lot of your concerts and there really is this insane
I don't know how you do it.
You have that kind of [D] energy.
We just saw in the clip
You'll have it for like two hours on stage, which is just pure madness.
I don't know how you do it
It's uh, there's a will there's a will to do it
Yeah, and I I I focus on that it's the same will that makes me get up in the morning
Is the same will that makes me spaz out?
Yeah.
Yeah, see but I don't many I don't see how you could I mean
Yeah, there's a will to do it
But at a certain point you must have like three different hearts pumping in your [Gb] chest, you know
I mean, it seems impossible to me that you can just maintain that level of intensity
Maybe when you say that three other hearts, I think it's the hearts of the people in the audience that end up
Coming together and giving me energy.
That's disgusting.
Uh
That totally creeped me out.
So you rip their hearts out of their chests
And stuck them into your own perfect frankenstein super hard.
Yeah, great
Uh, that's horrible.
Um
You okay motivational performer.
What what is your message?
Tell us what's your message now to people and i'm guessing young people the song party hard
For example, the one of the main lines and that is is is we must party now.
Well, we do what we want
We we we party we do what we want.
I my message is first of all love
Yes, and to emanate love in every direction through music through talking through whatever it is
But with that love in mind and feeling that empowered state that love puts you and I want people to do whatever they want to do
and I think that there sometimes can be confusion or i've noticed in even my own life that there's
Moments of confusion where you feel like you can't do what you want.
For example conan
Yes, I imagine you coming in here every day.
There may have been times when you thought wow, it'd be great to not
Come in today and do the show because you're here five days a week for years and year after year and it wears down and
There might be a time
When uh, the perspective gets lost and you feel obligated and you feel like you have this responsibility that you're trapped in this show
And you can't break out
And i'm here to tell you that you can you didn't have to come in today
And neither did I
[Eb] No, you're right.
I quit [N] i'm getting out of here
Totally getting out of here.
No, no, I see I see what your point is.
I see what your point everybody
I mean, this is my dream job.
I love this job, but occasionally there are moments say when a cat over there's hands come on
There are moments where your soul leaves your body for a minute and you think I wish I was digging a dick somewhere
Uh, I wish I was a professional prize fighter or a street urchin anything else or sailing the high seas in the 17th century stealing gold
Uh, the fact is you still you still came in and that is what makes this special everybody here chose to be here
I chose to be here.
You chose to be here.
That's the energy.
A bunch of these people have left
Are these the the prisoner
We ship them in yeah, no, uh, it's it but it's true.
So that's what you're saying is you you uh,
It's it's uh, it's finding those moments realizing that you have the will that you choose to be uh, who you are
You choose to do what you do exactly now why?
Motivational performer most people say motivational speaker.
What makes you a motivational performer?
Well, there's certainly there's been talking much like i'm talking now
I'll talk when i've been doing these lectures and these appearances, but that's too limiting to say just speaking
I I want to perform motivational performance
Enables me to to get up and and stop talking, right?
incredible
I
Just had that moment again where I wanted to be doing something else
If you move you're saying if you move you get your whole energy up, is that what you're saying?
Yeah, you break free
You gotta break free
You gotta [Ab] break free
[Gb]
[N]
We both came I broke [E] free
I feel like in that moment.
I tore [Gb] everyone's brains out of their head to the audience and stuck them into my head
That's the idea.
It's a spontaneous
quality of it
So you'll do that and that helps actually that [Ab] changes that that makes it all right
I want everyone to be in a state of empowerment and yeah and out of breath.
Yeah
And feeling ridiculous.
Yeah, that's all good
Well, andrew wk will be giving a lecture at carnegie mellon university in pittsburgh, pennsylvania
