Talking YouTube finds

A thread for YouTube oddities dredged up in the 21st century

MTV Manics Day interviews/favourite songs, 1998: https://youtu.be/hjWOJEehhdw

Sometimes I think they come across as a bit rude in modern interviews (come on lads, sit up and speak up a bit, stop looking at your shoes) but some of these older ones are cringeworthy in their lack of energy.

I do love James's quiet intellectualism. He can talk the same game as Nicky or Richey but his body languages betrays that he doesn't completely buy into it.

I completely agree with what you're saying.

I also think Richey is so adorable in interviews. I love his voice and he's just like no other.

Never rude. Self conscious sometimes, a little anxious, out of place, tired....Nicky sounds like he could do with a nice lie down here....but that's why I like them so.....they are themselves rather than bunnies on speed forever 'EXCITED' about everything...and AWESOMED and just God so amaaaazing I'm gonna be touring this year with the album oh my god it is so tote amazeballs I can't tell you, oh God!!! I love you all by the way and want to thank you so so sincerely for hearing me on this album, God your'e just so AMAZING.....
think on it that way....I'd rather talk to Nicky, James n Sean anyday....coffees all round and we don't even have to talk just sit and chill.....AMAZING

This is true but I suspect there was some strong coffee in that mug....or more whiskey....hair of the dog n all

I forgot about this interview which purely consists of someone stalking James around Berlin...

All we need was Nicky Wire refusing to leave his hotel and it's the video for empty souls...
