Imagine Ray LaMontagne and Meg White sitting alone in a room with coffee, cigarettes and some booze. I would love to be an invisible person and witness the brilliant and awkward conversation that would ensue.
I love him so much. I don't say "humble" anymore, though, when I refer to him. I saw in an interview that he doesn't like that term because by definition, it sounds almost self-loathing. He said he tries to "have humility." I like that a LOT better :)
@natalieesmith1 I can see that. I've always thought of him as grounded...just a regular guy who happens to be a great musician but doesn't let the attention interfere with who he is at heart...it's admirable, I think
As much as it's interesting to hear what he has to say, this format is terrible. Everything from how close the interviewer is to Ray to the use of a microphone is too cluttered. Almost feel sorry for the guy, goddamn!
This man is truly a Gift from God. Humbled by life's trials and tribulations which has shaped and molded him into the true artist that he is. He sings from the soul and spirit and from the pain which he has been given. Very wise individual we don't get many of his kind I see him and Michael Jackson very similar characteristics. True talent not made talent true talent. That's not made it was created by the masters touch. But with great talent comes great sufferings that's why he is so humbled.
there is a void that a lot of western men have allowed themselves to slip into, where nothing holds meaning.. clearly one of these two men has lost his grip, and one has not, and if you can't tell the difference, then you're in real trouble. patience is a virtue. peace.
Lavigne and Lamontagne. They have the same ending, I was thinking Canadian and think about how the way Avril Lavigne name was spelled. I thought he was greek, but it doesn't matter.
Ray my dear friend, you are a very interesting man.

@kevo8t6 He's reserved from what I understand- not crazy about being interviewed.

@kevo8t6 yes, as a fan (and a fellow introvert) I really respect his attitude and the way he handles fame- love that he doesn't let the job make him

I heard he was shy, but I didn't realized quite how much. I admire him for getting through this since it's clearly so awful for him!

That interview is a prick. Ask him if he's shy and tells him he picked the wrong career? This guy has no tact, and is unprofessional.
