Transcript
00:00How does it feel to be here tonight as a Grammy nominee?
00:04Great, and it feels like a big one for me.
00:07I've got a few, so it feels like a celebration.
00:10I feel like you can't really lose at an event like this.
00:13You feel like a winner just being here, so I feel like great.
00:16Yeah, it feels awesome.
00:18Now, both Harry Styles and Lizzo, who you worked with,
00:21they are both performing tonight.
00:22Are you excited for those performances?
00:23What do you think we're going to see?
00:25I mean, I'm not going to lie,
00:26I've maybe seen a little bit of Harry's performance,
00:28and it was amazing.
00:31But I can't wait to see it because he always holds,
00:33he always keeps a little in the tank,
00:35and then when it goes, what I love is you get to see him,
00:38you can see what he's been planning in his head,
00:40so he'll go full tilt for it, so I'm really excited about it.
00:43And Lizzo's always, I mean, that girl can sing,
00:47so I can't wait for that, yeah.
00:49What's one thing about working with Harry Styles
00:51that you think might surprise people?
00:53I think it might surprise people.
00:59I mean, I think I'd probably say just our friendship
01:04is the most unique thing about that relationship
01:07and working with him.
01:08It's like, it's no holds barred.
01:10There's no politeness.
01:11I mean, he's a very smart, calculated, together guy.
01:15When we're together and we're working,
01:17so passionate about what we're doing,
01:18sometimes it's very like,
01:20no, we should do it like this, and we'll get into it,
01:22and we'll argue and fight over things,
01:24and there's a lot of that that you don't see,
01:26you know, the struggle in making things work behind it.
01:28So I think that's kind of surprising,
01:30but we have that because of our friendship,
01:32so I don't know.
01:33Now, you've worked on so much of the music
01:35that we were listening to in 2022,
01:38but what were you listening to?
01:39What was on repeat for you this past year?
01:42Band called Fontaines DC, who are from Ireland,
01:45probably, to me, one of the best bands
01:47in the world right now.
01:47I love them, and I was surprised
01:50they weren't nominated for anything, actually,
01:51but I love Fontaines DC and a bit of Little Yachty.
01:56I love Little Yachty, so I was listening to a bit of that.
01:58Poland he brought out, it was incredible.
02:01But I'm always in the studio working,
02:03so it's a bit of a busman's holiday
02:04listening to music sometimes.
02:05Sometimes I just want to go home
02:07and listen to older records that aren't so new,
02:10so I do a lot of that.
02:11If you win a Grammy tonight,
02:12where will you put the trophy?
02:15In my toilet.
02:16In the toilet?
02:18Yeah, that's one of the trophies and awards,
02:19in the toilet,
02:20because everyone uses your bathroom, right?
02:22And they have to look at it.
02:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:24It's too much pressure in the studio,
02:26so toilet, great.
02:28I love that.
02:28And what are you going to do tonight
02:29after the show's over to celebrate
02:31if you win big?
02:33Get drunk and party, yeah.
02:37I feel like Harry Styles is probably
02:38a great person to party with.
02:40What's your take on that?
02:42Yeah, I've seen him party.
02:43That guy can party, so yeah.
02:45I'm just glad, you know,
02:47I'm just glad we'll be around people
02:49that can help contain him,
02:51because I'm tired of doing that.
02:52So I'm going to do my own party.
02:55That's too funny.
02:56I love that.
02:56Have a great night tonight,
02:57and good luck.
02:58Thank you so much.
02:59Thank you so much.
02:59Thank you so much.
