Global superstar Ed Sheeran and critically acclaimed actor Barry Keoghan link up to crown their GOAT rap album, footballer, and pop star before revealing their Worst of All Time purchase.
This is GOAT Talk, a show where we ask today’s greats to crown their all-time greats.
I love Get Rich or Die Tryin'.
I was listening to that with my dad the other day.
We were in Italy.
I was topless with a beer in my hand,
explaining to him how great If I Can't was.
I'm like, this is genius.
Hi, I'm Ed Sheeran.
Hi, I'm Barry Kilgan.
And this is Goat Talk.
This is Goat Talk. Let's do it.
I think you're going first.
I'm going first.
Have you seen this before?
I've seen some interviews, yeah.
They're funny, so we kind of have to match up now to it.
Goat English slang.
I love the word peng.
Peng.
Like peng ting.
Yeah, but for me it's just all nang.
You know when nang used to be the word that was cool, I guess.
But I don't know, it kind of shifted when really, really posh people started saying it.
Then it just shifted.
What is peng?
Peng, I think, is just good looking, I think.
Good looking.
I've been called peng a few times.
There you go.
Honestly, I just got called peng walking in here.
It's crazy.
Who called you peng?
I don't know.
Was it Liv?
Yeah, a few people.
You called him peng?
I think I say what we saying a lot.
What are you saying?
What are we saying?
Is that your chat up line?
It kind of is. What are we saying then?
What are you saying?
I have a mate whose chat up line is he literally sends an emoji of a slide in DMs.
What? Stop.
Emojis.
That's crazy.
All right, here we go, OJs.
Oh, goat Irish slang.
Darling is quite Irish slang, right, isn't it?
Yeah.
And then I'd say feck a lot and Jaysus.
Yeah.
Jaysus.
I love it.
People, when they say, call someone a ride.
A ride.
Jaysus.
Ad-lib in a rap song.
Wow.
I love early gigs.
Well, I mean, recent gigs as well, but early gigs.
Any ad-lib.
Like cheese.
Oh, okay.
And I got to make a song with gigs in 2012.
And being a huge gigs fan, sitting in the studio and just listening to him going.
Yeah.
Cheese.
Yeah.
I love that.
That's it.
That's gigs.
The best.
I think, yeah, you know what?
I'm with you on that.
It's such a stamp, isn't it?
Yeah.
Do you know when he does that?
You're like, you know what's coming.
I thought the question was, who would you, what would you ad-lib in a rap song?
I think I'd have to convince gigs to let me do that.
Cheese.
What would the sound be for you?
Oh, he's coming.
He's coming at you now.
What's splurge mean?
Like a big purchase.
I don't really buy a lot of stuff.
You know, I mean, watches would be, you know, something I'm really into.
You've never bought anything like stupid?
I have this thing of like this obsession about buying games and having the latest games and
Nintendo consoles and because my ADHD just doesn't allow me to focus.
I never actually play them.
You know, the lads out there go buy me the games and they're still in the packet.
I've got an account with a warehouse that creates those giant dinosaurs that you get
at theme parks.
You know, those huge vinyl dinosaurs.
And I've been sending them to people as gifts to **** with them.
Stop, man.
I sent Capaldi one and he had to go into town, hire a forklift truck.
And open it up.
And it was just this ******* huge dinosaur.
I'll be waiting.
I'll be waiting on that dinosaur.
Then I'll be like, what the **** is that?
I literally just sent one to Post Malone.
He's got a T-Rex.
I would love that.
What dinosaur would you want?
Do you want the big, the ones like the pterodactyl?
Yeah, I like them.
They're nice.
Are the ones with the long necks.
By the way, I'm not taking the piss when I'm saying it about 18 months.
No, don't say that.
My boy would love it.
You are getting one.
Don't want one.
Goat watch.
That one.
Gizzard.
Look at that.
You can say mine and I can give you mine and I can, you know.
I got them to make it for the next round of albums.
Love that, man.
But I sort of said I'd wear it on all the press as well.
Yeah, I've seen you as a big Butch fan.
Yeah.
I love Omega, you know.
I've got a good relationship with Omega.
There's a Moonstone Omega watch, which I actually got.
And it's like kind of residues of the moon.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like stuff that can move through any circle, if that makes sense.
Like I wouldn't wear this out in London at all.
So I think it would be like, IWC make a, it's called a Pilot's Mark and it's like 38 mil.
It's like automatic Swiss made.
It would last you for your whole life, but you'd never get your arm cut off for it.
It's crazy, like, because this watch doesn't even tell the right time.
Do you know how much they are?
It's 12 o'clock.
It's crazy.
All these watches, they don't have the right time.
I'm with you on that.
Omega ambassador, right here.
Sorry, Omega.
Please keep me on the contract.
Anyways.
Goat footballer.
Can't say anyone on Ipswitch.
Why not?
I don't know.
Just made that.
Wow.
Just made that real.
Fuckin' hell.
Apart from the obvious, obviouses of like Ronaldo, Messi.
I think Brazilian Ronaldo was always my favorite.
Oh, yeah.
Even Zidane.
Brazilian Ronaldo, yeah.
I think anyone from that era, 1998 World Cup was like my, the first.
He just had control, wasn't it?
There's something about Brazilian Ronaldo.
I just, he's like a rock star.
For me, I go way back to, yeah, I go back to Roy Keane.
He'd be one of my favorite, you know.
That's center mid.
I'm not only saying this because I'm a United fan.
Post goals and, you know, Verratti as well.
That's sort of center mid, the defensive.
Thiago.
But, yeah.
Goat footballer.
Goat excuse to bail on plans.
I'm getting into character.
That's a good one.
Do you know what I mean?
So I'm just like, I'm finding that right now.
I'm just like, hold on.
Barry's not here right now.
Method.
Have you done method?
Have I done method?
Like, it's method or something.
Have you done method?
Yeah, I've tried method.
Well, it is, it is, it is fuckin' weird.
It is fuckin' weird.
For me, then, my process is always like, you know,
when I'm eight, seven weeks out,
it's to stay in the accent and ask all the questions
and kind of walk the way, to do that physique
and the walk.
What's the toughest accent you've had to do?
It would be, it would be this one
because it's a voice, you know?
And it's not just Liverpool,
but it's like, it's such a way of delivering it
and it was such a,
there was just a different tone and pitch to it.
My excuse to bail on plans.
Oh, yeah.
Always kids.
Always, but it's usually valid.
That's a great one.
It's usually valid.
Like tonight, when we hang,
I'm going to disappear for an hour and put them down.
But you are, really?
No, yeah, because like, I want to be the one
that puts them to sleep, you know?
Yeah, love that.
Movie prop you've collected?
I buy a movie prop every birthday.
Do you?
Yeah.
My favourite, I got Robin Williams' pan costume
from Hook and Rufio's sword.
No way.
I should keep my props.
Yeah.
Definitely.
Yeah, because people like me buy them.
Do you know what I mean?
I've got some drumsticks,
do you want to buy them?
There you go.
Drumsticks sold to Ed Sheeran.
He gave me a dinosaur on the tour.
What's the most expensive one you've bought?
C3PO.
What, you bought that from Star Wars?
No way.
One of them.
Wow.
I'm not going to say.
Wow.
F***, man.
I'm saying it on my bad lips.
Did you keep anything from Love, Hate?
I kept the cat.
Did you?
I love that you love Love, Hate.
I love it.
Honestly.
When I met Ed, the first thing he said to me was,
watch all of Love, Hate.
I went, you did?
Wow.
Because you were on the season 2014.
Yeah.
So I've been following you from there.
I don't want to kiss your arse too much,
but there was something so compelling about you on screen
and I was just like, who the f*** is this?
I was just sort of like, wow.
That's insane.
I love that.
Thank you.
For me, it's Above Wire.
For me, it's Above Sopranos.
Wow, that's it.
I rewatch Love, Hate once a year.
Man.
What is annoying about it?
Anyone that's watching with the rights of Love, Hate
is whenever I recommend it to people,
there's only like three seasons available on Amazon.
You have to.
So I got into a habit.
You know Dave, the rapper?
He came down once and I was telling him about it.
I bought him the DVD box set.
Has Dave watched it?
Well, this is the thing.
He didn't have a f***ing DVD.
Dave, watch Love, Hate, man.
Come on.
What can I say?
We're revealing stuff right now before I get fired.
I love 65, 66.
I'm kind of going off what I've seen, you know, with movie prep and that.
You know, I love a good cardigan.
Yeah.
Good Gansey, we call it in Ireland.
A good jumper.
You know, I love that.
I think the Ed Sullivan suits.
I think there's something clean about them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're amazing.
There's something clean about it.
Yeah.
You know, and what I love as well,
like speaking to my grandfather about them,
is, you know, he was into Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra.
He thought they looked scruffy.
Really?
And you look at them now and they're all sort of like prim and proper.
Sophisticated.
I think because they had long hair, it was like, oh no.
But actually, it's like neatly cut.
Isn't it crazy seeing a band like that in suits?
Like, I mean, for Ringo, you know, he looks like a gentleman drummer,
if you get what I'm saying, in a suit.
So back in the day, it would have been like these, like,
some scruffy bags on TV.
And me?
Yeah.
Relationship advice.
Oh.
Honesty is the best policy.
Yeah.
For me, my marriage is just based on complete openness
and telling each other everything.
Well, I can't really go tell you relationship advice from me
because I don't have a leg to stand on.
Sorry, Cal.
I'm not the goat of that one.
So my relationship advice for myself going forward would be honesty.
Why do I say that with a smile?
Like, it's bad.
I'm being honest.
Honesty.
Anyways.
Goat conspiracy theory.
I ******* love aliens.
Oh, do you love aliens?
BBC.
BBC are writing about it now.
I believe in aliens.
They're writing about it.
Everyone called Tom DeLonge and Robbie Williams crazy
when they were making these documentaries.
Me included.
And then when the BBC started writing about it, I was like,
wow, it's real.
They're easing us into this ----.
I always wonder, like, you know, UFO sightings,
there's always in Texas and stuff.
I'm like, why do they go there?
Well, here was a military base.
It's probably just a drone.
Let's be honest.
In the 60s?
Oh, in the 60s.
Oh.
Anything's ******* possible.
Goat pop star.
Out of all the people I've worked with,
I think Beyonce was the most impressive.
I think seeing her up close and dancing and singing,
it was definitely like an otherworldly time.
Did you get starstruck?
Yeah, definitely.
Definitely.
Like the first proper time that I did the Grammys.
I'd kind of gone a couple of years before,
but this time I was like booked for all the things.
And I was performing with this person
and performing with this person.
And I got booked to play Stevie Wonder's tribute concert
with singing with Beyonce and Gary Clark Jr.
And then afterwards, Jay-Z was like,
come out for dinner with us.
And I was like 23 and just...
That's mad.
Just like real like rabbit in headlights.
It was a very, very surreal day.
Yeah, that's mad.
Anyway.
Goat actor.
I ******* love Daniel Day-Lewis, you know.
Another method actor.
He tried method.
Fave Daniel Day-Lewis role.
My left foot, you know,
there will be blood.
I'd say there will be blood.
He's just, he's incredible.
He really is.
Who's your favorite actor?
You don't have to say me.
After me.
I'm not lying though.
When I say that genuinely,
I watch everything that you bring out.
Everything.
I think you've seen more films of me
than I've seen of me.
You know, I'm not even messing.
No, I would say modern day
because also there's certain actors and actresses
that you just trust their taste.
It's kind of like Rihanna.
Like when Rihanna releases a song,
I'm like, I'm going to listen to that song
because I trust Rihanna's taste.
But I trust your taste.
So I watch everything you do.
Do you try and do,
when you do movies,
do you try and like do like one commercial one
and then two indie ones
and then one commercial one
and kind of balance it like that?
I do look at that sometimes,
but you know,
I tend not to try to fall into that.
It's directors I pick that I want to work with.
Also, where can I show my range?
I feel like you're very difficult to typecast.
Yeah.
That's why, mate,
I watched Saltburn about three times.
Did you?
The first time I watched it,
I had no idea what it was about
and I was sort of watching it
and I'm like,
what the **** is going on here?
He's mad.
He's fecking mad.
Did you get choreographed before you did it?
Oh yeah.
People say it's hard for the actor.
It's hard for the people around
because they don't know what to do
or where to look
and it's just awkward.
But I remember lying on this bed naked
having a hot water bottle on me.
So, you know.
Yeah.
Stepped in like,
oh, you're not ready.
Back on the bed.
Hold on, give me two seconds.
So all of that was going through my head
while I'm trying to play the character as well.
Anyways, this question.
Oh, song you wish you wrote.
Labyrinth, Jealous.
Oh, nice.
I think is,
modern day,
the song I wish I wrote
and back in the day,
American Pie, Don McLean.
So like, multifaceted that song.
Okay, I'm gonna flip it.
What is a role that you wished you'd done?
That's the next one.
How is it?
Wow, look at that.
Oh, wow.
Okay, goat movie you weren't in
but wanted to be.
So Cool Hand Luke, definitely.
Paul Newman.
To play that role.
Yeah.
But again, it's sort of like that thing of like,
you don't want to touch that
because it's been done
and it wouldn't hold that significance.
Okay, so what about goat movie
that you weren't in
because you turned down?
Wait, wait.
What I was gonna say.
Let's leave.
Lyric on your new album.
Oh, yeah.
I can't tell if it's pleasure or pain
trying to keep within my remit.
I was just saying to him
which I love that song.
It's a weird song
and it only came about
because I got sued.
That was the only reason.
Really?
Yeah, because I had to find
all my old devices to give in court.
Wow.
I was switching on old laptops
and old phones
and old iPads.
How did you get the passcodes?
It's not been the same passcode
for 20 years.
I change it.
I love that you don't use a phone as well.
iPad.
iPad, I know.
iPad.
No, I have email
and because no one expects
to reply to email quickly
and you know, I do reply quickly.
Yeah, you do.
But I'm...
I can picture you there with the iPad
like replying like that.
But you don't expect me to reply
and if I'm...
So like this weekend, for instance,
I had a weekend of homecoming gigs.
I just switched it off
and the iPad didn't reply to anyone
and then Monday morning,
they all come in.
I love that.
And then I sit down
and I do all of them at once.
Folders that say personal,
work, music,
too long, didn't read,
thing to do, urgent.
I'm in there.
Hey Ed,
just want to run this by you.
I heard a rumour
that Paul McCartney didn't,
maybe he does now,
but didn't have a phone
or an answer phone
and he said,
well,
if people want to reach me,
they'll find a way.
It's crazy
because I just texted him
before this
saying wish me luck.
Yeah, mad.
Goat rap album.
I mean,
I love Get Rich or Die Trying.
I was listening to that
weirdly with my dad the other day.
Yeah, we were in Italy.
As you do.
I was topless
with a beer in my hand.
Explaining to him
how great If I Can't was
because it's not a full eight bar chorus.
It's like six bars.
If I can't,
I'm like,
this is genius.
I'm trying to explain.
Anyway.
I mean,
you got Eminem on there as well.
It's all actually that world,
all the aftermath,
shady world.
I think it's Get Rich or Die Trying.
I think it's documentary game
or I think it's
Marshall Mathers LP,
Eminem.
I think those three,
I could put them on
in any scenario.
It's the kind of album
that you put on
when you go back
to sort of like,
this is it.
You know,
when you have the pressure
of people listening to your songs
and your playlist
and you're like,
all right,
I'm going to throw this on.
You can just put on,
yeah,
2001 Dr. Dre is another one.
Yeah,
everyone kind of
gets with it,
you know what I mean?
Yeah,
and it just flows.
Yeah,
great.
Goat rapper.
I love Dave.
I wasn't meant to answer that.
If you watched Love Hate,
I'd love him more.
Yeah,
you've got the box set
in your house,
brother.
I would say
my favorite rappers
are British.
Yeah,
same.
Stormzy,
Dave.
I think my favorite,
favorite,
favorite would be
more sort of like
the generation
that I entered into it,
like Wretch 32,
Devlin,
Skepta,
Jamie.
Yeah,
British rap,
yeah,
I'm with you.
Have you seen Skepta's
called out all the American rappers?
No.
And he's just like,
we'll wash you.
Let me come do a verse.
Ah.
Yeah,
yeah,
I do.
I think Irish rappers
are the best of all time.
Just saying.
Is that what he said?
No.
I think it's all culture.
I think if you go to France
and you say,
who's the best rapper?
They're going to say
a French rapper.
Yeah.
If you go to Germany,
do the same thing.
And I understand
British rappers more.
I can relate to Stormzy's tunes
more than I can relate to
whoever's.
Yeah,
I agree.
I can't relate to,
you know,
stuff that's in Atlanta.
I love it though.
I'll like,
I'll put,
this is the thing,
you put on
Get Rich With I Try
and you're,
wow,
I can relate to that.
So I'm impatiently waiting.
Okay,
Woat.
Here we go,
Woat.
I only figured out
what Woat was
on the way here.
Worst purchase
that you've ever made.
I bought a little doll
from Squid Game.
You know,
when she,
green light.
Yeah,
yeah.
The actual one.
But,
yeah,
she didn't really do much.
I was expecting like,
the whole
stuff.
Turn around,
red light.
I bought a
Aston Martin
DB9
as my first car.
How was it the worst
purchase?
Because,
it was a lovely car.
I was driving back
from the studio
and there's a country lane
to get to my house
and I was driving down it
and there was this big puddle
and I was like,
I'll just drive slowly
through this puddle
and I start driving slowly
and then it's going in
like this
and I can see the water
on my
windows
and I'm like,
oh,
****.
And then I see the water
going in the thing
and then suddenly
it just stops.
no.
And I'm like a mile
from my house
and I'm like,
oh,
well,
****.
You feel everything in it.
And I keep trying to start it
and then I open the door
all this water comes in
and I left it
on the road.
Is it still there?
Are we going to see it?
Someone picked it up
and I haven't seen it since.
Are you serious?
I just left it there
and that is why
it's the worst purchase
I've ever made.
All right.
Worst,
worst song of your career?
Worst song of my career?
I like every song I put out.
I think Galway Girl
is the most offensive
to people.
They're like,
I ******* love Galway Girl.
See?
Do you know what I mean?
Um,
no,
I feel like if there's
a like rallying hate cry
for me,
like I'm not critically loved
and whenever I'm,
whenever critics
write anything about me,
they always mention Galway Girl.
So I think that,
why?
What are they
complaining about?
Have they even
binned the Galway
these critics?
Oh gosh.
They came at you.
Worst advice
that you've got?
Gotten?
It's gotten a word?
Worst advice
I've gotten?
Um,
honestly,
plan.
Messed up.
Because you said
honestly right now.
Um,
you ever see
when you're getting
advice off someone,
usually it's from
taxi drivers like,
you know,
and they're always like,
ah yeah look,
you know,
and they're giving you advice.
What you should be doing.
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
And you're just kind of
politely saying,
yeah,
no,
I agree.
And it's like,
halfway through,
you're like,
what are you
******* even talking about?
I went to a music college
when I was like 17
and someone,
one of the teachers
at the music college
like was giving me advice
on my live show
and was just like,
what you need to do
is you need to like
not sing
and then make it like
a visual thing
where you've got like a video
in the background
and you're doing the pedal
and stuff and it's the,
and I just remember being like,
you're in like a position
of like,
real influence.
Yeah.
We're just gonna make our range.
Just encourage people.
yeah.
What the **** are you,
what are you talking about?
The thing that you're doing,
don't do it.
I remember being 17 at the time
and being like,
this is dreadful advice
for what you,
what are you talking about?
But yeah,
stay in school everyone.
Um, yeah.
We can sign off with that.
Great.
All done.
Brilliant.
Thank you so much.
Brilliant.
We will pick them up.
I reckon we have to pick
all these up as well.
Nah, we'll pick them up.
There's someone else.
For the next people.
You're the first
to ever help pick them up.
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
