Paramore

0:00Hey, we're Paramore and you're watching MSN Exclusives. I just have you in Canada. Yes. It's a giant world tour that literally is an actual world tour. Yeah. You've kind of already done that side of the...

0:45I'm looking at a map, you know how the maps are. Yeah. We're on this side over here. So I'm coming this way. Yeah. No one's getting over to the talk. We're just making our way across a flat map. Yeah, we started off over there. It's just... A flat map. Yeah. And everyone's kind of everyone's under the weather. You've got foot issues. You had to cancel the show last week because of your voice. How's everyone doing today? We're getting there. We're getting better. It's just, you know what I think it is? We didn't tour for three years. And now here we are and we're just like, we just threw ourselves into it and we're older. We're old now. You're pretty like 36. I'm 24. I'm 24. Yeah. But you know like... I can't hold now. It's funny how... It's funny how when we were like 17, 18, you could just go like 12 shows in a row. We would do it like now. It's like two shows in a row. And you're next still hurting like five days later, you know?

1:34What interests me there is the three years off. Did you do one offs or is this like the first shows in three years? You must have done a few here and there. Yeah. We did some festivals and some international things here and there. But spent a lot of time making our new record. And this is our first time touring back in the States and being able to come back in Canada for three years almost. Yeah. Other than the Warp Tour we did here. Yeah, we did a couple spots on the Warp Tour. That's just because we can't we can't stay off the Warp Tour. We love it. Yes. You probably have friends in every band. And it's got to be just like a party. Nonstop party all summer long. Talking about this tour though, adding these new songs to the setlist. It would be nice to add some new material in, change things up a little bit. So what are the setlist like? Like what songs had to go? Like what babies have left for this tour? There is now we're at the point where we do have so many songs

2:20that I forget we have a lot of songs. I think once we make the setlist, I'm like so one track minded. This is us right now. I didn't even know what we had before go. Well, we basically what we did for this tour was we looked at older sets. And we were like, how do we want to change this like what we've been doing up? And then we were like, are there any songs that we haven't played in a really long time that we want to add back and we did that? Because there were some songs we literally we hadn't played in years and years. Aside from the fact that we took some time off, like we just we hadn't we hadn't played them. So we thought this would be a good tour to do it. We're sort of introducing people to the new album, playing a few songs off of that and then pulling out some really old ones as well. Part two, I'm just going to name a tune off the new record

3:06because I found some interesting stuff. So it's part two to a song from like five years back. Yeah, from Riot. When you from Riot, when you write a tune that is a sequel to a song, are you going through the first the original song and thinking like, Oh, I miss talking about that feeling. I miss this lyric. I miss this lick. Well, kind of it kind of surprised us, honestly. Like when the music was written, I think it reminded us of the first version of that song, and what the fun's began. And it had like a very similar vibe and you know, it was just it kind of had a dark, eerie, like groovy theme, you know, to it. And I think we've all we like this band called me without you a lot, you know, and they've always done like part two's and there's other bands that we've always thought that was cool. We've always wanted to do it. And it just seemed like an opportunity to kind of update that.

3:52And live, you know, for let the fans begin, we kind of developed this whole outro that we do. And so it's just like really like passionate and kind of comes off its hinges. And I think we've always wanted to try to do that on the recording. We didn't ever have a chance. I think this was a chance to get to show that, you know, to try to recreate that in a new way, you know, on the record. So the music was written first and the lyrics you decided. It kind of fits with the theme. Let's just go with it and see what happens. Yeah, yeah. I borrowed some lyrics from the first version. Right. From what the fans began. And I don't know, I thought it felt, it's like Taylor said it was, it kind of, the opportunity presented itself and we like wanted to take advantage of it. I like the line, I question every human being that won't look in my eyes.

4:39Do you stare at people as you're walking down the street being like that, guys weird. No, I don't like that. You just stare at people? No, I'm not. People are like that. I wear a trench coat most days and I just stare. I keep people to stink. That's great. I got to let you guys go. So I know, I know super quick. So fast. Let me take a while. I know. We do something called Five Quick Questions, one more answers. Road or studio? Studio for me. Oh, it's so hard. I say road. Yeah, road. Landon and McCartney. McCartney. I'll go Landon. We go through the groove. Yeah, I'll go. When you hear a song that usually hits you first, lyrics, melody or rhythm. Lyrids. Oh, rhythm. Wow. It's like rhythm and melody. Yeah. Yeah, that's a combo. I'll go with lyrics, fine.

5:24The song you've written, you're most proud of. What? What are we the most proud? What's song we most proud of? Well, everyone might like a different opinion. Last time. Last time. That's two words. I like the arpeggio guitar. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Do you what I can? I don't know. Man, that's kind of like picking a favorite, you know, and I'm terrible at that. I guess right now I'll go with Still and To You because I kind of can't believe that we wrote. Like, that's one of my favorite songs. That's a pop song. I love that song. Thank you. That means a lot. So I'm proud that it's our song, you know? Cool. One of those ones just came and you're like, wow, this is me. Yeah, I love it. Oh, why am I looking? I know what the question is. In one word, paramour. Paramour. Paramour. Paramour. Paramour.

6:09That's really hard to do. No, I stick with paramour. Yeah, me too. Poppin'. Yeah. It's our record. I guess it's your record too. Yes. We don't know if you mean the record of the band. Exactly. We don't want you to know. I like it. You guys got to go. Thank you so much. Thank you. Have a good one. That was fun.
