I think its cool of him being "ok" with gay marriage, but i dont like his condecendent way of talking about the subject, "alternative lifestyle", "dominatrix" and on...probably im getting it wrong, the argument is so much simpler. If this guy can get there, i think you can get there too billy.

I've been waiting since friday for someone to finally post this. thanks.
either
this place has slowed down a bit or i'm moving too fast.

I enjoyed this interview alot.
You should definitely check it out.
I wont spoil the ending for you but
like the movie Titanic, you will want to stick around in the end.
(its worth it)lol

Billy looks like he is in a peaceful place.
Glad to see him like this.

I like the fact that even the interviewer acknowledges
how times have changed and people are not as negative as they used to be before(he must have hanged around these parts)
but the negativity still exists. (it highlights the best in us) -THE GOOD-
No fans like Spfans.

Its nice to see Billy embrace the internet.
(I always used to hear him complain about it)
Embrace it Billy, you have no other choice (let it work in your favor)
Flow with the changes. Use it to get to places you never have before.

The internet has become the streets now.
Instead of lighters in the air at a concert, its cell phones/iphones now. (the times)

bad set of clothes; ha!
You're an innovatr when it comes to fashion Billy.
I got the same problem too.

I love the part when the interviewer says: "and you workout" and Billy stares at the camera
after that. Simply something you all need to see for yourselves.(it made me smile)

Billy has gained some pounds. 20 pounds overweight aint bad, if he gains more after that
then he better start picking up the dumbbells and put down the subway sandwiches.
Health is the first priority not looks though Hollywood tells you otherwise.

Seems like my prophecy will come true if he does a double album next.
re-read this as I say it SP, The new SuPergroup needs to establish some street cred,
(make albums) The next double will be a big one.
make 3 more albums after that.

When the interviewer speaks about SPs fans Billys eyes spin around his head.
All walks of life come here with histories of their own.

Its nice to see Billy change from the Billy who would always complain about the fans
to now who someone who finally gets it.

I found it odd when he spoke about the 30-40 year old demographic fans
and then started to talk about Kobe????
I wish he would have not lost his train of thought.
("what good a wish is for"-Glissandra)

Its so hard for people in the spotlight to say the right things at the right time
and not offend anybody. (happy to see he cares)
Billy has evolved so much in the past 3-4 years.
All for the better.

Billy is in a great position to impact the world,
I cant wait for his book (if it comes out)
maybe he will wait til he passes away for the book to come out.
I hope I am alive to read it.
We are all going to learn so much from him,
I just hope his book doesn't come out with so many curse words.
(its a bad rap to talk about God and Love and then turn around and say a bunch of curse words in the pubic eye)
I'm only telling you something maybe your circle of friends wont because they are afraid of losing you.
Find a spiritual teacher to assist you in worldly matters.
It must be hard to establish good friendships with people when most come off like the interviewer and say "yes" alll the time like a bobble head.
(i am aware its an interview-i am not knocking on him)
I just cant begin to imagine what Billys life is like in that sense, or any celebrity for that matter,

The part where Billy
says "you gotta ask yourself what are you still doing here"
is a very dep spiritual question I ask myself all the time,
We all should always asks ourselvs that.

I wonder what proffesion he would have been doing instead of SP
and what he would do after SP??

Billy, all is worth it if it comes from love.

Billy what message will you leave behind Billy.
(start focusing on that)
I dont know why I have the need of telling you this now.
but God knows.

As far as gay rights are concerned,
as long as there is love and noone is getting hurt (i am all for it too)
I like the fact that you bring up Compassion.
(We can never have enough of it in this world)
its an extremely important component to have.

Nice to hear how much Billy has evolved from his racist uncle/family.
(it goes to show if he can do it, we all can)

From SP selling Ice Cream to Tires, I'd start with Action Figures (i'd collect them all)
The ending is too funny and clever to give away.
You have to hear it for yoursself.

I wonder if it's me that found the embarrassing high school pictures hahaha :lol:/>

I really enjoyed this interview too - makes me proud to be a fan. I loved the break down of same-sex marriage in both legal and social terms.
