Interview: Rael from Happy Eggs
Tuesday, 17 July 2007
Image Happy Eggs lead singer and guitarist Rael Jones was a good egg (sorry) and
agreed to answer questions from the garbled masses of the internet.













I'd quite like to be zapped into Bjork, as then I could say "Hey, I've been in Bjork's Pancreas".


Do you think Sean Connery will
ever do a film without a Scottish accent?

If it aint broke, don't fix it.
Moped or Motorbike?
Walking. Cheaper, better for the environment, less chance of death,
more places to park....and you can
stop and talk to people.

Fancy Dress? - What shall I go as?
Gandhi. He's really hot right now.
Or maybe Donatello from the
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
I'm going out to buy a new car.
How do I know which cars will transform into a robot or not?

Any car has the potential to turn
into a robot. The downside is, you
have to consume naughty mind
altering substances to realise it.
Or have a severe mental illness.
The two aren't entirely unrelated.
Remember the film "Innerspace"? Who's body would you like to be
zapped into?

I reckon everyone looks pretty
similar on the inside. Except maybe Keith Richards. There must be some pretty incredible stuff going on in there.
I'd quite like to be zapped into Bjork,
as then I could say "Hey,
I've been in Bjork's Pancreas".




What new songs do you find inspirational?
Very few new songs. There's a lot
of derivative crap out there, and
its hard to see a small number of
truly innovative bands going
unrecognised in favour of safer,
tried and tested options.
A more recent inspiration has been
the album XO by Elliot Smith.
There's a lot you can learn from a
guy so fucked he'd stab himself in
the heart.


Can you name at least one Celebrity that actually has
looked better after facial
plastic surgery?

No. I can't. But then, plastic
surgery successes don't make
very good news stories.
Should logical thinking be
banned?

This is the stupidest question I've
ever heard.

What is the biggest secret
in your life?

I don't keep secrets anymore.
People make secrets of horrible
things they're ashamed of - I find
its much more fun to do horrible
things and be entirely honest about it.



I saw you peeing in the Coffee Carafe.Admit it?
See above. Also, if you caught me
in the act, it'd be pretty dumb to
deny it.
