00:00Be there or be square, and if not, we'll see you in another 25 years.
00:04Maybe!
00:05Has time gone quick?
00:08I feel like we've lived a thousand lives,
00:11but it's great to be back together after a 22-year hiatus for sure.
00:17What's the most 2,000 thing that you guys miss?
00:19The most 2,000 thing? No social media.
00:23Why don't you have a gig when no one uses their phones?
00:26When we were gigging together, people didn't use their phones, it was lovely.
00:30They were in the moment.
00:31So have you guys always been in touch the whole time throughout everything?
00:34Yes.
00:34So what's been happening?
00:35Have you all just done your own thing, and then one day you're like, shall we?
00:39How did it happen?
00:40Well, basically this year is the 25th anniversary from when we released Licking on Both Sides,
00:45you know, our first ever album.
00:47And so we wanted to do something to mark that and celebrate that with the fans.
00:50Yeah, unreal.
00:51And so, you know, we're going to do a one night stand at Wembley, why not?
00:54September the 12th.
00:55Alright, unreal.
00:56And the tunes, when you hear them back, are you just a bit like,
00:58Oh!
00:59We're creating.
01:00We're creating.
01:02Soundtracked.
01:02Our lives.
01:03We've been talking about it.
01:04Oh, thanks.
01:04Just like, when you listen back, you're like, we were ahead of the curve.
01:07Like the music, unreal girls.
01:08You must be so proud of what you made.
01:10We're so, like, we're so happy that the music has lived and the fans have still loved it.
01:18And all those years down the line, it's still standing still and strong.
01:22Yes.
01:22And we're thankful and we're grateful to fans.
01:24We love them.
01:25We love you all.
01:26And yeah, we're finally back.
01:28And we're so happy.
01:29That is so exciting.
01:30Why only one gig?
01:31Can we do a gig of a week?
01:32Can we do loads more?
01:33I think with Mystique, you know, it's always about doing our own thing, you know, in our
01:38own way and not following what everybody else does and keeping people on their toes.
01:42Yeah.
01:43And of course we wrote it.
01:44It was premeditated.
01:45A one night stand with Mystique.
01:46Yes.
01:46So we had to do a one night stand with Mystique.
01:48What about new music?
01:49Can you tell me anything?
01:50There's no new music.
01:51Nope.
01:52If people want to come and see us, it has to be in September.
01:55Be there or be square.
01:57Love.
01:57And if not, we'll see you in another 25 years.
01:59Love.
02:00Maybe.
02:01Maybe.
02:01Love.
02:02If Mickey and Steele runs.
02:04If we still look like this.
02:06I love it.
02:07And what about the talent that's here today?
02:09Have you been chatting to anyone back there?
02:11Are you fans of the blind love today?
02:13We saw Take That.
02:14Obviously great friends with Gary.
02:16Yeah.
02:16The boys.
02:17We love them.
02:17We saw December 10 and congratulated those young boys on all their success.

02:30This time next year?
02:31I will be back in Australia where I live, lying on a beach, sleeping in a pot of town.
02:36I'll be multitasking as I usually do.
02:38You're a good multitasker, babe.
02:39I am.

02:57me.
