STEREOGUM: Anytime you mention a new project or some possible new collaboration, people seem to jump all over it. The recent mentions of you working with Ke$ha on a album, for example …
WAYNE COYNE: I don’t really pick and choose projects, I just feel like what I’m interested in, I can make happen. And I’m not really worried about how much time it’s gonna take. I mean we’ve already done a lot of music with Ke$ha … Ke$ha and I had just texted about it again. I’m always urging her, look come on lady, we gotta make this weird record! And then finally she’s like, “I know we do, when are we going to make this?” We already have some cool music and I can’t wait for the world to hear it because it’s so cool. And I’m not even thinking about her image or anything. To me anybody would hear this music and go “Oh **** what a great song!” and then maybe they’d think about it for a minute and go, “That’s ****ing Ke$ha and the Flaming Lips?! ****! Now that’s weird.” But I think anybody will hear it and go, “whoa that’s cool.” And that’s why I’m always pushing her; I mean she’s pushing me, too. She’s got more production-related responsibilities than I do. I don’t have anyone saying, “okay we’re gonna release a record now.
I feel like I should know this already (): do we have any photos of Harold? Do we know who he is for sure? Or anything about him beyond what K$ has told us, basically.
