Gotta say, she's 19 in this video...From a journalist perspective, I think he's just trying to do his job in what's an awkward situation and she's giving him nothing to work with...
And :O I wish I was as talented as her... Maybe I should start singing gigs and try making my own folk music... I'm 17 and I feel old, because she started from such a young age -.-'
I was afraid to watch this because of everyone slagging the interviewer off (I thought he'd piss me off too), but he wasn't so bad. Plus she could handle his forwardness. It's all good.
Normally I can tell if someone is speaking with a british accent or an australian accent but when they start talking together I basically go instant deaf LOL!!! Took me quite some time to realize he's aussie!!!
"urtextfilms" did a shit job of editing this, the contast is so high you can't even see laura. and their interviewer is a knob. but on a brighter note, laura dealt with his questions beautifully. mad love. :) x
WANKER!!!!! laura is such a lady for putting up with him. he spent most of the time accusing her TELLING HER whats what and asking the most stupid questions EVER!!!! i love Laura Marling xxx
"i'm not incredibly bright or academic" - I don't believe that at all. From her songs I think Laura Marling is insightful and intellectual, perhaps she just means in the 'schoolroom' sense of the word. I love her, she's so lovely and handled this tough interviewer really well!
@Cahillbrazier WOOOOW. Thanks a lot bro. You see some of us Americans aren't fatties who spend their lives eating and being terminally douchey. Common misconception, really.:)
@clemiwaki I don't know if you're being sarcastic but it's fairly well documented that the whole of Noah and The Whales second album was about Charlie Fink's break up with Laura Marling.
That was pretty rude. To the people saying that Journalists are supposed to ask hard questions, this is some guy from some online magazine (as far as I can tell) interviewing a 20 year old semi well known singer. He's not interviewing Obama for the New York Times for goodness sake.
@sirrahandapraul Apparently she's ended it with Mumford now, he cheated over xmas apparently. might just be gossip though. only found one reliable-ish source
Laura Marling is brilliant and takes every idiotic, uncalled for, and inappropriate question with such grace. She absolutely glows. I wish to be like her someday. :)
@yvranx I think what people don't like is that he's taken what is clearly a very personal topic for Laura (her break up with Charlie Fink, and the album he made about it) and turned it into some sort of cheap joke, as if she would do some sort of tacky revenge song, like Eamon and Frankee or something. If a journalist wants to ask personal, probing questions, then fair enough. But he didn't. He wanted to make a crap joke about he very difficult part of her life. Low rent interviewing I feel.
@yvranx And if you want to interview people, then try asking reasonable questions. That can mean probing, personal ones or lighthearted jokey stuff. As this guy demonstrates, trying to combine the two doesn't really work. It ends up sounding like you are taking the piss a bit. He probably didn't mean any harm by it, he's just not a very good interviewer. Likewise, I'm sure Laura wouldn't have lost any sleep over it. Worse things happen at sea, and all that.
@philipknowles1 Just saw it again, I can't see anything wrong with the interview. Yes, there is a 25 second segment about her former boyfriend. He was not rude, he did not press, and the relationship is already public knowledge (which makes asking about it reasonable), so I don't see anything wrong with the interview. For that he is called "jerk", "arse", "cunt", "asshole", "prick", "dick head" and is repeatedly threatened with violence.
@yvranx It's only that question which I think's a bit out of order. Like you say, it's public knowledge but I think it's also fairly well known that she is quited sensitive about it. In those circumstances I think that it should be brought up in a delicate way. Not making a silly joke out of it. He can't seriously expected her to be happy about it. Peoples reaction to it is pretty over the top, but thats the internet. I'm amazed we've replied this many times without wishing death on each other!
@yvranx I think if he was trying to pick her up he would have failed even worse than he does at interviewing! Not seen the Kalowski interview. What do you search for that one?
She was very polite, but I'm glad she did say something when he asked such a rude question. The interviewer didn't really seem to notice she'd been offended though.
those were really horrible questions, he could have asked her something about what inspires her etc, rather than her personal life?
