Tinted Windows at SXSW 2009 (Interview with SPIN)

[roguechocolate]

Oh, I love them.The fact that they are just doing this for fun.Awesome...Just guys doing what they want to do-all for the music

[guyanaboi122]

james doesnt look so different now but billy does

[skullface89]

The Hanson guy kinda looks like Corgan actually.

[skullface89]

@skullface89 And he kinda talks like him too.

[vitaminC7657]

Good ol' John Norris...still trying to look young. He WAS MTV in the 90's.

[psychgyul001]

Is that guy for real with that hair colour? No, seriously...

[TheEdwinrosadi]

Mega Group! yeah like they said :D way to go!

[urangaclaudia]

Por dios santo , ese oriental... jajajaj. it's a disaster

[chocolytesprynkles]

is that guy's silver hair suppose to be funny? XD

[justalinkooh]

HAHAHAHA!!

[lonemilkman]

this is why i'll never move to NYC.

[michalrytel]

john norris : take that stuff off your head!!! he's wearing a wig there!

[fadednite]

James is such a classy guy. Never bashes anyone.

[commando]

he did once give a snarky "no comment" in regards to Zwan, though.

[catbus87]

I'm kind of freaked out by John Norris' hair...

[ritter89]

@catbus87 it's a wig

[platnium1811]

james iha is a legend

[PennyRoyaleTea]

Looks like James has a piece of Darcy on his head. She must still be on his mind. Aha. Get it? On his mind? I crack myself up.

[CheatasticChea]

El oh El HIGH FIVE !

[dustyglass]

I heard about this today, and it was a mixture of WTF and squeels of glee. Pumpkins and Hanson were my 2 favorite bands as a teen (yes, weird mixture). So this has had me smiling all day =) Also, I love the singles! So catchy! And for those of you complaining it's too poppy: IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE POWERPOP! Like Cheaptrick! THAT IS WHAT THEY SET OUT TO DO!

[djmixmind]

More power to you James YOU ROCK!

[paigeloveshanson]

i knew taylor was going to do all of the talking HE ALWAYS DOES but thats ok cuz i like his voice lol

[ElleDTee]

I love you Taylor but what's with the sunglasses?!

[utbrottstjuv]

it's hot! haha

[paigeloveshanson]

Hey lol i have those sunglassses well ones like it dont u own a pair of ray-bands they come in all colors!!

[Maria2blue]

The glasses aren't half as bad as Kurt's haircut. He looks pathetic still trying to look young. :)

[CATZIy]

know why taylor has those glasses ? bc there corection .. there perscrition

[Ninjanikkies]

Correction...he has 4 kids now. lol

[eyelinerofgloom]

How is Taylor Hanson not a homosexual? I love Hanson, but how is he NOT gay?

[colemann76]

because hes married with the three kids

[ninchen84]

four kids actually

[colemann76]

well there you go

[UncleCaptainMidnight]

john norris has a wig

[ivehlk]

God damn it, James.

[stacyviacomsucks]

wow john has a diffrent hai style.

[junkmailboy1000]

It's great to see a group of artists not motivated by money or fame (like they need it) try something new for themselves and do something fun. And why do people keep trashing James because he's not part of some emo band? The man's an artist, just let him do what he wants.

[kellyizzl]

This is so great. cool people. I love their music!!!

[HansonGurl33]

You know? They don't like Taylor...I'm just saying. He talks too much, and Ike and Zac were used to his talkiness and now...it's just wrong. This is sad...

[stacyviacomsucks]

i agree that tay loves to talk.

[dianedlj]

Let James speak.

[ihaXsakito]

he's used to it I think, but still I do like hearing him speak

[lboughto001]

Wow. I love Taylor and glad he is branching out....but i dunno...if i like it...wish is it was more rockish than pop

[sunsetblvd20]

Taylor's rockin' the Robert Pattinson hair.........sortof.....

The album is AMAZING though. Go buy it!!!

[BatALash]

Tay needs to find glasses that fit his face properly.

[KCVROCKS2008]

john norris, i didn't know he was still out there doing music/tv.

[Rockchick984]

James you can do better than this, seriously. GO BACK to the pumpkins or join a real rock band

[stacyviacomsucks]

who the fuck said that he stoped doin the pumpkins band?try no one. they said they are still doing there other bands.

[lauramcclean]

Love it. <3 love ya Taylor!

[gorgeousmia]

james looks so fresh with the hairdo.

[limori84]

they really are cool. so different and uniq!!

good luck guys!! :)

[buikurama]

man james should go back to his mellon collie era hairstyle. that was sick.

[ihaXsakito]

I know, but then again, would we want to see him with mcis hair at 41?

[kfranco145]

yeah, james needs to go back to the pumpkins

[psychodeathmonkey]

i really wish james would go back with sp now. or go to manson

[patopanget]

John Norris you are better than Godwin Alexander....he he he...nice into...

[patopanget]

[noneofusareok]

[suzy83]

[livelovelearnlife]

i really wished you hadn't had done this.

[bigorange95]

SHAMEFUL......

[ihaXsakito]

what is with the JonasBrothers tag, they've got nothing to do with another

[erinlynn]

Oh wait, haha, James and Adam now has to find out how you can't really get a word in with Taylor talkin.  Yesssss. Other victims.

[corleonex]

its a good project, i hope it results in great music

[oliviahull]

Take those stupid glasses off Taylor!

[wolfsign0111]

he is stupid as his glasses!!!

TINTED WINDOWS - LOOOOOSERS

HANSON - the BEST

TAYLOR made mistake, his voice not for this kind of music

[noneofusareok]

agreed, stupid glasses!

[AdamWalshMusic]

4:04 - James is thinking "Oh god - here it comes - the Pumpkins questiosn...."

[djmixmind]

I SUPPORT ALL PUMPKINS PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE.

I am happy to see James enjoying himself again and Melissa rocking out LOVE THAT WOMEN!

Also proud of Jimmy's decision to move on you cant stay where you don't want to be we all have a choice we all have one life we cant live it for someone else.

I will support ALL PUMPKINS PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE all of you stuck in the past WAKE UP.

Its a NEW DAY IN PUMPKIN LAND.

InBetweenFiction-

[AngelicaBlueeyes]

Taylor Hanson wore that JAcket when I saw him in 2000

[sillylilmonky]

it was like 85 degrees when they did this interview. i saw him walking down the street in that jacket and i had to wonder "WHY taylor??"

[gnr4life23]

James will never be back in the Pumpkins, so I'm definitely excited for this and some solo stuff.

[joao1988pedro]

james is crazy

[lefthandrighthand]

john norris is completely in love with taylor. it's cute.

[djmixmind]

You rock James!

mm*

[Floskeknosk]

I have never seen James smile as much as he does here. He must feel great, with all right! James kicks ass!

[Sepuloren]

Its nice to see james smile when they mention the pumpkins

[VioletSkyes]

john norris looks like he's wearing a shaggy costume

[Teej212]

James sounds like hes gone through puberty. deeper voice since the last time i heard hiim speak, which was probably about 9 years ago

[commando]

uhh.. that's the exact voice he's always had.. check the vieuphoria dvd.

[Teej212]

lol. look at this, a kid acting like he knows more about smashing pumpkins than me. LOLLLLLLLLLLZ

i was just saying that james' voice sounds deeper. i have vieuphoria VHS PRomo VHS and DVD ive heard the voice. its  deeper here.

[commando]

I'm confident i know more about sp than you, and also that you are a huge douche for trying to name drop the "exclusive" merch you have. I've got that shit too.

[Teej212]

you want to bet on that

[commando]

what kind of dork brags on youtube about how much he knows about sp? What are you, 12?

[rachaelsiriusmarie]

Taylor he gave you the perfect opportunity to talk about Hanson for a bit lol, why didnt you?

It was nice John said it was always nice to see Tay lol

I wonder if Hanson are going to tour when Cheap Trick are touring in the summer

[drummenator]

He did talk about Hanson. He said that they are still together and working on a new record. What else should he have said? "We're also planning to have more kids."

[noneofusareok]

right, there's nothing else to say about the BAND now, unless he wanted to mention the walks and stuff.

[drummenator]

Yeah, but that would be bad form. They're there to talk about Tinted Windows, which most people watching probably hadn't heard of yet. He's not going to start talking about how his other band is involved with charitable endeavors in Africa. It would take up five minutes of an already short interview.

[SpaggitSP]

supergroup is not supermusic

[noneofusareok]

taylor's stuffed belly is pricelly there and james' girl tee oO man ... gotta love this band ^^

[Zoe1416]

LoL. He is getting a bit of a belly there, huh?! That's one of the first things I noticed too. I'm like No....! You need to lose some weight! But he looks hot, as always!

[noneofusareok]

Impossivel not to see that big big belly showing up oO Ok if you thing he's hot or something, I am a guy =] but I do not like the leather coat and black tight Tee making his belly so evident oO

[Hanson97]

Yea John Norris has always had a funny hairstyle. The funny thing about this interview is.. I have a tape of a Hanson concert on MTV (MTV 10 Spot Concert I think its called) and John Norris was the host. haa now to see him and Taylor here 12 years later is funny and cool :)

[buckleyisgod]

John Norris really needs to stop leting the MTV fashion department do his hair! He looks terrible! He should cut his hair back to how it was a while ago or somthing else....Anyways Tinted Windows are great!
