Mark E Smith German TV Interview 1989 

Marki you wehre so great, miss you

fantastic clip, love it love it love it

hahaha that's brilliant. Gotta feel for the guy. Also, never ask MES a question that can be answered by "yes" or "no". They never learn. Great post. "Let's walk over here as if we're really walking over to see him"

"You are the man with the problems."

i am german and i feel really sorry for this interviewer like for many other things from germany

mark is in awe at his clothes and hair crimes

LOVE HOW DIRECT MARK WAS NO FUCKING ABOUT-RIP MARK E SMITH SALFORD'S FINEST R.E.S.P.E.C.T 2 YOU 🎼 🍺 👍 ✌ 💖

"you'll have to ask the dance group ABOUT T-H-A-T" Just when you think it can't get any better...

"yeah let's go over christian like we really are going over there.."

Don't be hard on the German. That's as good as you'll get trying to interview Mark

Longer version including the Fall's gig: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F-GzNvvs-lU.html

Wot?

I would guess that Mark has got at least a little bit of time for the germans, considering his oft-documented love for the music from over there. I think he's bothered by them when they look like they are in Roxette and they are asking stupid inane questions.

“Iya fella y’arlight?” RIP MES

If we wanted nudity, we wouldn't be watching a video of Mark E. Smith. What were you thinking?

Phillip who I couldn't understand the interviewer!! Anyone know?

I agree with seosoul of (4 monts ago). Yes, I agree with this.

singing?

Your right I feel bad for the guy LOL ! Woulda been better to do this somewherelse..

"what??" ha ha ha ha

HAHAHA

I don't think marks even doing that much wrong here

Yeah, and on both them he gets asked about Philip Boa. Who the fuck is Philip Boa??

@bntw82 aye right calling him a kraut is clever,admit it as much as we may like the Fall mr Smith is hardly the most helpful interviewee

This is hiliarious.

Don't like the interviewer RIP MES 🇬🇧✊

Unusual? You bet! The interviewer is, unlike his "cool 80s outfit" suggests, so damn nervous that he makes an utter fool of himself. He stumbles through this non-conversation so much that he tries to "save his skin" by making sloppy translations and finally changing his subject about the Curious Orange ballet to Philip Boa. A total disaster, and Mark has the last laugh!
