@@drumbeard I get the impression he is anxious at first, unable to find the words in Danish, etc., but as soon as he sits on the couch, he looks comfortable and relaxed.
@@Proranis No way! No chance is it the worst sounding language. There are far more unbearable languages out there.. at the risk of offending people, I won't mention them. Spanish would be up there as one of the worst sounding ones. I don't mind offending them. Danish sounds like music to my ears compared to that gross language.
@@no_problem8023 Yes, the way he pronounce some of the danish words, are quite "americanized". Some words he also struggles to remember it seems. But that is usually what happens, when you spend most of your life overseas. His second language has replaced his first langauge.
This a new side of Lars i have never seen. So down to earth and cool. It´s nice to hear him speak his native language. I am a Swede but i can translate pretty good. 🤟
I absolutely Love hearing Lars speak Danish like that. It gives a whole other look, presentation to the personality. Regarding Swedish and Danish- how much can you understand? How different are they from eachother, and does it depend on dialects, areas of Sweden/Denmark which can help the communication and understanding of the languages?
@@kylereece1979 Well. Swedish and Danish has some words that are about similar but other are a guess what they mean.. But i can understand in general what they talk about.
@@kylereece1979 I live in Sweden right next to Denmark, used to be Danish territory but turned Swedish 1658, and I understand this dialect of Danish perfectly well.
I was today years old when I realized Lars actually is not only from Denmark, but can actually fluently speak the language! This shit is beyond trippy.. he never highlighted that ... he almost hid it.. I just figured he was American with foreign origins like most of us... this is so trippy
For many many years Lars were always playing with a Danish flag hung on his drum set somewhere. Look at pictures from the majority of their concerts and you will be able to find it.
I was just in the Copenhagen airport lounge when this came on the TV. I was like “wait isn’t that…?” And then they flashed his name. I don’t speak danish but seemed like a really mellow exchange. First saw him play live in 1985.
@@misguidedangel6550 In 1984 Metallica were in Denmark for almost a half year recording "Ride of lightning" and later "Master of Puppets" at Sweet Silence Studios on the island of Amager that partly are part of Copenhagen. Metallica have a strong connection with Denmark.
Lars Ulrichs father was a competitive trnnis player and represented Dammark in Davis cup during the 60's and 70's i think... He played instruments, too and there came Lars love for the music from...
Thank you for sharing this! Amazing interview, I love heard Lars speaking on his mother tongue. Such an amazing Language. Very interesting and entertainment interview. A world famous drummer turns to be so down to earth, maybe now more than ever. 🤘🤘
As an Icelander that moved to Norway at an early age I always found Danish to be a hilarious language. When I first heard it I bursted out laughing, killed me. That being said, the danes are one of the most lovely people I have ever met, I always have a great time in Denmark - We forgive you for ruling over our country for 500 years, after all, we got our independece over 80 years ago. Let bygones be bygones. Hold nu kæft og hav en dejlig aften =)
Maybe he's observing the Scandinavian code of conduct called the Law of Jante, which could be summed up as "You're not to think you're anyone special, or that you're better than us."
Hatten af.. det gjorde han godt. Han var sympatisk, glad og taknemmelig mange gange gennem programmet. I min optik den bedste medie-optræden vi nogensinde har set fra Lars. Hér, i dette program, var hans rolle naturligvis også en helt anden end når han filmes og optræder med resten af bandet. Han var bestemt et behageligt selskab. Ros herfra
@@SpaceCattttt Yeah, he's talking about not walking in his father's footsteps and becoming a Tennis player and how he basically just eats Yoghurt with blueberry and egg whites every day and the cook is making that, but I'm only about 10 minutes in though.
I’m an American who has spent some time in Denmark and it’s wild to hear Lars speak his native tongue because he’s been speaking English for so long that his Danish accent is weird. What I mean is, he doesn’t have the typical Danish accent though he speaks the language fluently.
People who say Lars is a bad drummer is just jealous, you don't accumulate a bank account with more than one hundred Million dollars by being a bad drummer before or now you just don't.
Костлявость прям старческая, либо, не дай Бог заболевание. Да по-любому здоровья, ему да и нам всем тоже. Но выглядит очень нехорошо, действительно. Это я как медик говорю.
У моего бати на обложках всех винилов Метлы из его коллекции кроме 72 Seasons есть автограф Ларса (как и всех остальных мужиков из группы) ... По мере возможности проплачиваю его поездки на их концерты ... Не часто, но 2-3 раза в год точняк ...
Didn't understand a word but I love their old school style of recording TV Denmark seems so Happy. I also Love how much they Love an English spoken Band!
Pretty nice seeing him with Danish talk show hosts. Danish people are usually very different from Lars. As in, not overtly aggressive, loud, arrogant and so on. He seems to adapt to the Danish vibe while there. He's really appears a nicer person in this smaller place. He probably gets his own groceries and stuff, don't need security etc.
Ha! He speaks English on regular basis, as his first language. Hard for him to speak Danish without turning to English constantly. I know the condition.
Zaskoczył mnie ten majowy poranek z Larsem w telewizji śniadaniowej w niczym nie przypominając tego drapieżnika ze sceny muzycznej dającym upust swej siły i fantazji na koncertach której jak widać nabawił się za sprawą jogurtu z jagodami .
@@Nichwar19 He always seemed like that in Danish even on BA tour. I think in 1992 he was more rock n roll, there s a phase for everyone in life with that journey. But in Danish he seemed always more natural and cool.
Such cynical coment! Shame on u! In USA u need to be pretentions to survive! To be kinde is sign of weakness what is sick! Danes ,Swedes, Norwegians, Finnish are all cold and withdrawn , but not cynical and pretentious!
Han er mye mer hyggelig og sympatisk her enn som amerikaner. Alltid syntes at Lars har vært litt grumpy, men ikke i dette intervjuet. Takk for at du lastet opp :)
Because Danes are much more down to earth than Americans. American always loud and total different mindset. When Lars talks danish he switches also to danish mindset.
Han fortjener hver en skilling fordi han fik James til at udgive Nothing Else Matters. I øvrigt en fed version af den med Miley Cyrus kan klart anbefales!!!! ❤
As a swede i have a much easier time understading Lars danish than the host because of his now ''less danish'' dialect, few times I get to skip subs when hearing danish lol
It sounds so close to German too. Spiele/play sounds just the same in German. I could catch a few other words. I bet many Dannish people in addition to English as a foreign language must also learn German due to the similarity and economic importance of Germany. Pretty sure too Norwegian and Swedish must also be pereferred foreign languages due to the similarity and cultural links.
Jeg er imponeret over at han stadig ser så godt ud og veltalende osv i en alder af 60+ år.. Tænk på at de sidste 40 år har han givet den MAX gas, iforhold til heavy metal.. Mange falder i fælden med seriøs alkohol problem, sex og stoffer. Men Lars ser ud til at ha' kommet godt ud af alle de fristelser i den livsstil.
Lars is looking a bit thin here. Probably aging but also eating healthy. Edit: Lars is eating with more etiquette here than that Some Kind of Monster couch sandwich.
It's quite strange and amusing to hear him in his native language when you hear him speak in English most of the time. He lived in Denmark for the first 16 years of his life and then moved to the US. Of course, language skills improve over time, but I think he always sounded American early on and never had a Scandinavian accent when he spoke English.
@@herbertwest9626 Fair point. I've watched enough foriegn movies with subtitles to know what's good. It's all jumbled with zero punctuation. No delineation between speakers. Barely makes logical sense. Granted, they are speaking lightening fast and conversationally. Mostly I can tell the words Lars is choosing aren't the best way to say it. Like I said elsewhere, it's clear he was a child native speaker.
@@hadara69 You are right, the subtitles are auto generated and I that are Danish tried to put them on to see and a lot of points and funny exchanges got completely lost.
