00:00I want to be unpredictable, but then I'm predictably unpredictable.

00:04That's the problem.

00:06Oh, here's Richie's here, the black clouds above his head,

00:09and he's going to be annoyed.

00:11And it's like, no, I'm not.

00:13I'm very content inside.

00:15I just give the impression that I'm annoyed.

00:18Because it keeps people off my back.

00:21If I come in on a scowl, people go,

00:24oh, we won't talk to him now.

00:27It's a protection thing. It's a cover.

00:30It's like, don't talk to me because I'm a monastic guy.

00:33Leave me alone.

00:34I've seen pictures of me at five, and I remember distinctly my mother saying,

00:37smile for the cameraman.

00:39And I'm going, no.

00:41How many people can fake a smile?

00:43I can't.

00:45And I kind of wonder about the people that do.

00:50He often says that he's never really happy,

00:53but to get content is more what he's in search of.

00:56Happiness is fun.

00:57He thinks it's fleeting.

00:59So he doesn't do the, he doesn't do happy.

01:02As the rest of us know it.

01:04I think happiness is superficial.

01:08I'm a bit of an enigma.

01:10I tend to be, I thrive on friction with rock and roll.

01:15And sometimes even this music.

01:18I thrive on rebellion and hating people.

01:21And I can love people, but I thrive on the rejection.

01:27You know, if I see somebody in the audience going,

01:31I'll show you.

01:34And then I'm all over playing really hard.

01:37Whereas if everybody's really happy, I'm like, oh, I'm happy.

01:41And I won't go anywhere.

01:43So I thrive on friction.

01:45And that's been indoctrinated in me for a long time.

01:51I don't even know where that comes from.

01:53Maybe I'm not going to blame my parents.

01:55It wasn't them.

01:56I loved horror films.

01:58I loved Christopher Lee.

01:59I loved all the Hammer horror films.

02:02I thought, wouldn't that be great to have a band

02:05that had that effect on people?

02:08People went, oh, oh, what's this?

02:11This is the dark person.

02:12Instead of being Paul McCartney going,

02:15everything's fine, everybody.

02:18Yeah, he's a great musician.

02:20But you know, that thumbs up is like, that's boring.

02:23I don't think smiling comes naturally.

02:24Even in personal pictures.

02:26He doesn't, he just doesn't come naturally.

02:27But smiling doesn't come naturally to people.

02:29It's not a normal thing.

02:30It doesn't come to you.
