With all the stupid interviews I have seen, I can understand why Mark Hollis retired from Music Biz...I would have quit. Dutch and Swedish presenters of the 80s are so...I have no words, but if there was a legal limit for stupidity, they would probably get a life sentence! :P
@arale1402 oh an before someone gets upset, I do apologise, and yes, true...other countries have stupid TV presenters too...it's just I only got to see Dutch and Swedish ones.
Did they play another track by any chance ? Every time I see this video makes me laugh how Mr. Mark and Mr. Webb try to make MR. Brenner do all the talking... By the way those hosts are pretty much big jerks specially the one interviewing Mr. mark...
He wasn't actually drunk, he was pretending for some fun. If he was drunk he wouldn't sing well like he did. And he was acting normally when the camera wasn't on him.
Just after world war 2! ww2 ended 1945? Sweden went Anal after ABBA! as great as ABBA where it created a musical snobbery amongst the pop music fraternity! not bjorn n bennys fault!.
looks like schoolboys all of them, very funny. yes, he is drunk, but otherwise he probably wouldn't cope with those compeletly fucked up TV hosts.....
Don't be embarrassed,journalist are more or less same everywhere in the World,they don't represent a country or people... I think Mark and the band managed this assholes quite good...
I´m from Sweden and embarrassed about how stupid those televion-journalists are. Mark and the guys just wanna play their song, for gods sake. Love Talk Talk!
why the first keyboard player left the band?

TV presenter: "You are not allowed to advertise on Swedish television"
Mark: "OK it isn´t called Mirror Man"
Snappy answer :-)

No wonder Hollis hated giving interviews! Also, they didn't appear to be using the tape machine - I wonder who they hat it? Great band! :)

That's true. Maybe an inside joke. At least I don't get it. But it's Simon Brenner no doubt. It's definitely him in all the early videos.

Brilliant performance! Does anyone know who the keyboardist is?

it's Simon Brenner on the keyboards. He was an official member of the band. I'd like to know what he's doing now.

That program was the only one in swe at that time that had new great artists.
But they still had interwievers who just didnt get the new era.i really cant watch it now coz i feel so ashamed.
One must remember that this is just after the world war 2 xD
But i remember TaLk TaLk being the best.

I absolutely agree-best performance of Mirror Man! Regardless of anything. Including enormous costs:)

In a situation like that I too would have gotten as hammered as possible.
What better way to get through all that. :D
Even the parts that are spoken in swedish aren't very clever so no defense for the guys interviewing.

Excellent ! Du grand Talk Talk et sans doute l'une de leurs premières prestations télévisées...
L'interview est excellente et les présentateurs allemands semblent frustrés... tu m'étonnes !
Et en plus ils appellent Simon Brenner "Harry" !
