Bollocks. I cry when I see ridiculous comments like this. If people genuinely cry when they see videos of celebrities whom they didn't know and never even met, there's something wrong somewhere. 😆
I dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
In hindsight it went brilliantly... but imagine it was a nightmare staring into Mark's eyes... Been there and it's not fun when he turns in an interview
I love how Mark always turned the questions on the interviewer if he smelt a hint of preconception in their question ("I can already imagine what you'll say about this"). It's as though he instantly wants to answer on the contrary and throw them off so as to not give them the satisfaction of feeling grounded or comfortable, his entire being was dedicated to being anything but predictable.
Watched this a couple of years ago and was listening to New Facts Emerge today. Such a shame it ends just when he's moving on to talking about Arthur Machen and libraries. Sadly we'll never have another album but fuck he's left us quite something to keep going with. Britain at one of its most radical, sublime and intense moments of art, genius and noise! Renegade worth a read as side splitting funny in parts and dark and twisted in others. As is the man
Fuck it Clear Spot IS a great Beefheart album! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UB6N4y1ZB-Y.html .....I can live with being a bit judged by Smitty for it.
Watched this years ago and great to do so again for some reason. The wit and take downs are sublime. Such a shame there wasn't more when taking about Machen at the end.
Oh my! I’ve known his death because of the messages in my video. One of my five favourite bands of all time. Y un personaje en toda regla. Very sad day. DEP.
this is amazing. thanks for the upload. too bad mojo didn't film the whole thing. It's always funny to me how people seem to think he's an ass hole from these interviews meanwhile he always comes off as being pretty likeable. He's always joking around. Has a hilarious genuine laugh. I think his reputation precedes him in that regard. He just doesn't tolerate stupidity which I've always found admirable. I just wish I could make out more of what he's actually saying.
+Mackenzie Bowles In fact, even with my limited listening-english understanding, I was wondering why he did not leave the stage before... It seemed like trying not to be an asshole for leaving too early, most of the questions were plain stupid, most of the people there would have understood him escaping from that.
the reason you probably cant understand what he's saying is because he's nearly deaf (35 years of live music will do that to you) , thats why he had to have the bloke asking the questions repeat shit over and over. I listen to the fall really loudly in my car for like an hour every day and Im nearly deaf imagine hearing the real thing night after night lolo.
About the crisps question - He means 'Focus groups' not pressure groups I love how he says _"The example I like to give is....CRISPS!"_ - Then gives the interviewer a look like ' need I really say more? surely this is all too obvious' @__@ 14:07 🤣 - I like this interview a lot - I met Smitty a bunch of times, he's a genuinely funny guy when he's relaxed.
"The budget Bill Haley" lmao this interview is full of gems, MES coulda been a successful stand-up comic The part with Jonny Vegas' question always makes me crack up. "No, that was Jesus." "God, you just said". I think maybe MES played up the "drunk tramp" part sometimes (no shit, Sherlock)
@13:38 Mark E. Smith walks into a bar and asks, "Two pints of lager and a packet of helicopter flavoured crisps, please.." Barman replies, "Sorry, but we've only got plane."
I remember Bernard manning on top of a fire engine in heaton park, squirting water at us. early/mid 80's. something he did every summer. not sure what the event was called, anyone?
Funny Mark laughing at Johnny Vegas laughing at having a ghostwriter, considering he did just that, though it reads like Mark in Renegade...can anyone shed light on the extent Austin Collins edited it
I don’t remember. There was plenty of shows ahead and I don’t bring infinite Gb on the run. Just attending shows. And avoiding people in the middle was tiresome. The filming was done from the crowd, seated behind people.
@@thomasminarchickjr.7355 Bragg used to be good over 30 years ago and has since lost all his left-wing credibility when he swapped Barking for a £ million+ converted hotel on the Dorset coast (whilst happy to praise the merits of multi-culturalism).Smith on the other hand attracted way too may people who were happy to like the Fall without ever paying much attention to their music !
Having met him, downed a pint with him on several occasions and had a laugh together and liked him and now miss him, what does that say of me? Perhaps I always caught him in a good mood
I liked the obstruction and the blurs! It made it look erratic; just like Mark's body language and mood. Made me feel like I was there as well.Thanks for the upload!
A singer who we have never heard of from a band we have never heard of whose songs we have never heard has died. Sad but a cultural icon I don't think so. Not for most people. Most people I guarantee could not name a song from the band. R.I.P
Jemima Craig You're interviewing the most awkward unprofessional man in pop because none of your colleagues have got the guts, put it this way, you're not in your comfort zone.
