I adore this woman. A life well lived full of many ups and downs. A tremendous artist.. Her later albums are glorious and she is extremely intelligent also. Of course a beautiful woman also.🥀🥀
An icon of the rock scene from the sixties (now 74) and beyond. She is also an accomplished writer, actor, song writer and singer. At least once week I listened to the Ballard of Lucy Jordan; a masterpiece.
I was just going to comment that I feel deeply sorry for the interviewer who is so earnest that he's falling all over himself; God bless Marianne for seeming to understand this and giving a terrific interview - in spite of him ;-)
Broken English is a classic. Love that album. Her voice or accent is posh yet, relatable. She comes from, or is of stock, born from out of high-society who just happend to fall into the music scene as a young woman. I'm sure her family did not intend for her to make a career of it, nor lose herself as she did during the height of the 60's (*see the last song in the video recording of the Stones "rock n' roll circus" where Mick grabs her hat off of her head, very funny). Hence the irony is not lost in her excellent cover of Lennon's working Class hero. For here is "a lady" who wanted to have fun with a capital F while experiencing life from all sides of the class system. Bless her heart.
She's forgotten what it's like to be young. She has little patience and seems uptight and reprimanding throughout the interview. The interviewer is young and nervous. He could have been treated slightly more gentle.
+coffeebeansism She seems polite enough to me. This is a man she is talking to, not a 2 year old. It would be disrespectful to speak to him like he's a baby.
She is an idol to me.. Loved the sixties.. Look who was drawn to her.. ? And me to.. A true icon of the times.. Loved how she said "No Stones Questions".. they were drawn to women that changed their course in the world they thought they created.. The Muse and the other Muse.. Bravo girls.. You made the band with your love of the "humanities" and knowledge of history which propelled them into icons of the music industry and fashion..
SHE IS ONE STRONG VOICE WOMEN , TELLS YOU WHAT IT WAS LIKE , HER WAY , THERE SEEM TO BE NO BULL SHIT ABOUT HER.I NOW WE KNOW WHY MICK WAS SO UPSET , BUT I THINK SHE WOULD OF WORN THE TROUSERS ,BETWEEN HER AND MICK. WOW LIVING ON THE STREETS , NOW LOOK AT HER .BLESS HER HEART .
She is amazing. Never realized out intelligent she is. And he is such a big fan and was trying not blow it too much. I rather like him, like a cute pet. haha
Her autobiographies make good precautionary tales. I like her 60's performances. And she became a good business woman. An interviewer would have to good research to come with good questions other than the obvious ones about her salad days. She is honest about having a limited vocal range.
Ok...the interviewer takes a little to adjust to, thanks to Marianne who managed to stay cool. She will have met hundreds of such seemingly starstruck interviewers in her impressive career who can't resist to ask about "Mick"......
Could've asked more about her solo career & it would be mildly insulting to have a seemingly inexperienced reporter interview her, but it turned out okay.
bonanzatime she is a multi talented influential person of the 60’s. Read about her. Groupie? Oh please, she’s far more than a term invented in the 70’s
Could have Tages Woche have found a Journalist that spoke worse English than this guy?. I mean Germany in 2011 it would have been VERY easy to find a German that spoke English as well as Marianne.
All this negative stuff about the interviewer. He did a fine job here. M.F. is not the easiest person to interview and English is not his native language. Still he his questions were clear and he was polite and got some good responses from her.
The journalist did a good job. He was nervous and who would't be - interviewing this great icon? Marianne made some interesting comments here, especially about "The Seven Deadly Sins". Thanks for sharing.
@@Methilde The statement refers to her coming through the rough times with the drugs, etc. Having been a teenager in the sixties a lot of people I knew did not.
@@BARRYPLANK was teenager in the early seventees in Paris. With high school friends we smoke and having some others drugs experiences but not so rough than her, and naturally stopped. But survivor for me come from an accident, a war, a desease or about the age and it's not very polite, no more.
She doesn't wan to talk about the Rolling Stones. But why didn't she ever want to talk about Jim Morrison and his death.She was there and knows something but never wanted to talk about it.She and her then lover and the drug dealer Jean de Breteuil instantly escaped to Morroco to get their asses out of that . That's why I don't have respect for this woman.
She obviously wants to remain friends with them because I'm sure she could still thr beans if she decided too on a lot. If Morrison actually did die it was heroin and in a Parisian rock n roll night club. I can only imagine the things she knows first hand
@@jonesy2111 @ well if she knows something we can only hope she will say something about it before she passes away no one will lock her up she is an old woman and that happened 50 years ago.
She was involved in Jim Morrison death. Her boyfriend Jean, the drug dealer gave Jim a fatal dose of Smack. Knowing he killed Janis Joplin some parts make me wonder if he worked for our government. They didn’t like Jim at all especially because Eid his ANTIWAR stance. Jim’s father was in the ship or was a commander on the ship which was allegedly been hit or struck via the Gulf Of Tokin incident - so, Jim’s father was involved in the conspiracy and he kept hushed about it. So, he basically worked for the government. He might have even known that they were or would target his son. Sad
Reading these comments I am surprised this woman is called a icon and self made, etc. have only considered her a stones groupie and drug riddled mediocre artist. Would have stopped the interview when she didn't wanna talk about the stones. Maybe I missed something.
Maybe you did. Clearly you have missed the last thirty years of her career which includes probably half a dozen stellar albums that would match ANYONE'S best work. How many artists that were around in the sixties managed to make quality, meaningful recordings during the eighties? Certainly not the Stones but Marianne sure as hell did and left most of her contemporaries eating her dust.
every interviewer cos she'll get up walk away refuses when asked it true if her drug dealer bfriend at the time use to sell to jim morrisons woman he went to the apartment sayin he wanted to kill jim cos pam jims girl got heroin from him but said rumor she got drugs free for blowing the guy even years after jim died is said m faithful bf did but by mistake kill jim fighting him jim on coke and heroin powder he did thinking it was coke they after he died heart attack they put him in bath tub yet none of it adds up on why pam had dr no one ever found even with name no autopsy plus biggest oddity his coffin was sealed she refused anyone opening it....hmmmm....sad way in the few ways he is said to of died i know is cover up by pam in her dealer why she got the hot shot nearly 3 years later high she would not stfup had guilt!!
I think there is a difference between being respectful and being nervous, scared, overwhelmed… i miss the eye level, i guess. But at some points I’ve found him adorable and other times.. I don’t know how to put it..he knew exactly what he wanted to ask and why, like the Zionism at the end. It shows a lot of respect that he prepared so well. Mixed feelings about it.
I think that the reason that she sounds a little irritated is because the interviewer is not that intelligent and asks her a lot of stupid questions. When people asks people stupid questions then it´s very natural to get stupid answers back. I myself cannot handle stupid questions. When people ask me questions that they have not thought a lot about, then I get a little irritated. Marianne is an intelligent woman, she has fought against her drug abuse, her anorexia and being homeless for a while. She is a brave and strong woman to have come back and never stopped making music, even when the press turned against her after her relationship with Mick Jagger. She deserves respect for what type of woman she is.
I think she had no patience because he (and this is my gut feeling) was trying to use this nervous attitude to get her to answer things she didn’t want to talk about. And i think she did very well at saying plainly “I don’t want to talk about the Stones”. Again, just my own interpretation, but i think she’s very intelligent and she could see through this attitude. And I don’t think he was being stupid. On another hand, I’ll be nervous if i had the chance to talk to her, specially because English is not my first language, like it’s not his. And come on, you have Marianne Faithful on front of you and you really don’t want to be short on vocabulary.. How great she is!
Creepy interviewer with inane questions. It's no wonder that being surrounded by these fawning sycophants sends these (yawn) celebrities into ego meltdown.
She is an artist herself, but she does not like to be treated like a groupie to the bend. I have an impression that as much as she loves Rolling Stones, she was also slighted by them and it left marks. She was probably still in love with Mick (or Keith) when she “sat on the wall” powerless and indulging into addiction while they were on their stellar path, and God knows if any of them turned back and wondered what happened to that girl. Don’t know, but she is certainly survivor and her story is interesting.
Yes,i agree with you 100% and i would like to read her book,do you know the name of her book?I come from Germany and i like the Stones,the Pistols(Sid Vicious) but that is not important now,i hope you can help me dear KEITH RICHARDS ROLLINGSTONES
I do admire her intellect and she was just such a beauty... she became a highly respected artist in her own right. When she came back with Broken English it was quite astounding and the album still gives me shivers
@IwannisCh and everyone who gave it a thumbs up; now, now, I'm sure you were all better brought up than that, let's keep our mean-spirited comments to ourselves shall we? You may not agree with the way he conducted the interview, but you also want to publicly criticize his laugh? Poor guy, maybe he was nervous
Wow has her voice changed over the years. Just listened to an interview of her from 1968. Not the same woman. Kids, stay away from drugs! How she's alive today is beyond me!
5:44 - The Beatles and the Beach Boys were competitive, but we're the ones who win. Pet Sounds-Rubber Soul-Revolver-Smile-Sgt Pepper. How great is all that. Yes I know Smile was released 45 years later, but I've been a Smile fan since 1994, albeit illegally - or I would like to say "unofficially".
Her voice will never be beautiful again; she ruined it with drugs during the 1970s, and her 1987 remake of her signature 1964 hit penned by Mick and Keef proved that.
Who was otherwise perfectly healthy person, c'mon. Can you offer an evidence for such an accusation? I think no one killed Jim but he himself he was already in a poor medical condition, his liver if you left it on the street neither animal would eat it it was most likely that damaged.
I can not stand her attitude. Yes, she still acts like she can sing. But believe me at this point and time it is not tolerable. Because of her past folks seem to feel sorry for her, and still want to see her from sentiment. What a piece of work she has developed. She is like the walking dead.
❤I thi k she could speak about Mick and Keith❤❤She was in a realationship with Mick❤❤buth she say he hade a littel todger??😢😢so thats way she was with Keith and be unfaitful and she never hade so good love in a hole night with Mick as she❤❤hade one nigjt with Keith..I heard her before say that Mick have a Tiny Todger ❤❤buth he get 8 or 10 children and so lot off men and women in his life❤❤❤❤❤❤she dont want to talk about that now when she is old women she live a very wild life herself with much drogs LSD and Mick get love to Anita they part on her Brian ❤❤first then keith❤ and Mick the ladt one .❤my god i say they have a real wild life in 60this😂❤❤
Dude that's why I came to this video, I was looking to hear her say something more about that. What do you know surrounding it? I'm trying to piece together everything here.
Just because she had a horrible ending....there was some young people who really believed in love and peace. It was not just a media invention. It was real up to Wood Stock, and The Stones having the Hells Angels come in to take care of security helped a young person get murdered in front of them during their concert.. After the reality hit more and more of Vietnam awareness that also chipped away from the hope of a revolution of love. It was a strong dream and seemed possible for awhile. But there was a type of the Summer Of Love not just a media invention. She could have been a classical singer? She really believes that? Haha. Her voice could not have been an opera singer by any means. Does she really believe the words coming out of her head? Wow. On top of that What a temper and ego she still has. It’s self evident.. She is still bitter and anger. But she is so self defensive she denies it. It came out while she was talking and with her behavior just during this interview. My she is hardly aware of much now. Plus what an ego. She is so full of herself I did not quite finish the interview though I really tried. I can tell she is not very like able.
