What are some of the positive sides of busking?
That's a good question.
There aren't any, really.
Because you're illegal, you're a piece of shit when you're at busking.
Can I say that? Can I say shit?
Can I say bottom?
You are just the lowest of the lowest in music.
You're a beggar.
And so people treat you, that guy has taken something.
You've just been robbed.
You see, you're still rolling, that's Barcelona.
What do I personally think of the other musicians?
As musicians, some of those people.
You gave us a choice word earlier.
Will I say a bunch of heartless, money-grabbing crooks?
That's how many words, that's too many words.
In one word.
I would say capitalists, serious into the money.
Because after all, in the seeds, you can make 500 euros in a couple of hours.
You've got something that connects with people.
There's a lot of people here.
So you can make a lot of money.
As you've seen, if you've been seeing the play, I make very little money.
People are just mine.
But they sell.
You know, they make a thousand euros a day.
Because people are incredibly stupid.
I don't know if you've noticed this.
In the world, most people want shit.
I think you said I can say that word.
They want that.
People say, yeah, I don't know.
I just want the crap that a guy is playing with a playback.
I want Abba Maria to play badly out of tune with some playback.
That's a terrible thing for me, being the sort of person I am.
Which is uncompromising.
Now, the thing is, and people hate me for this, how you think you're a great artist,
and that's what you know.
You've got to...
It comes back to the idea of what is success, you know.
And street musicians are street performers.
I talk about musicians, I'm a musician, but what kind of street performers
need this kind of ego massage constantly.
And they see it through...
When I make a lot of money, I'm somebody, I'm good.
So street performance is no different to anybody else.
It's more capitalist than the average person.
I just want a nice place to live.
I want a family, I want to have a holiday.
I just want to, you know, have a nice life.
But street performers...
No, me. I want to be the best one that makes the most money.
Thank you.
