watching this makes me realise that when i think my life sucks, it really doesnt. when i think that not having friends, or that my parents are never home, or feeling lonely and worthless and thinking that life is pointless, is bad. it's nothing compared to what she has gone through. living on the streets. that mustve been hard. :(
@xCowsCanFly That's such a genuine thing to say :) I visited London recently and made a point of visiting the same alley in which she lived and was thinking the exact same thing.
@xCowsCanFly She came from a troubled and essentially broken home, and was terribly mistreated by her first husband, a drug person, and was worked like crazy.
Read her book. Fascinating stuff. She's not a symapthetic character, and certainly no victim. She admits her lifestyle ruined her looks and voice.
She was not a very nice or responsible person. Stone's record executives urged Jagger to leave her, fearing her instability would somehow impact negatively on the Stones.
The oddest statement is, that while she slept with everyone and anyone, she said she wasn't interested in sex. Huh?
Marianne doesn't look bad at all here. People age, differently, genetically. It's all about weather one finds her attractive or not. But, men, on average, age a little better so even the prettiest gal in her youth gets old before her time, in, my, humble, opinion.
i fucking love this women. she british like me and i love her she real and this women have laid out her burden and gone on with her life. shes true blue. she's real. i wish more people were real like her. so the jack and coke is getting to me. but this women is true rock and roll and she dont fake it. i wish we had more stars like marianne faithful. i met the rolling stones but to meet marianne faithful would be so mucb better
What a stunning woman who's been through hell and back, seemingly over men? It's never that simple though is it, I mean there's always more to the story. It Is her story to tell however she likes. I'm so glad I've found her though as I'm truly mesmerized over her beauty and her talent.
I'm sad that beauty is a double-edged sword. Men f*ck up beautiful women with their lust and desire - I'm not judging, it's human instinct - but many have no self-control. No wonder so many attractive women run away spiritually and mentally. Being an object of unrelenting desire is a killer.
AND, everyone is going on about how her voice went to pot, but her speaking voice in this friggin' interview isn't much different from miley cyrus' singing voice, and the world can't get enough of THAT little poptart!
and i had no idea how good-looking mick jagger was as a young man - wow - i never saw what girls ever even saw in that guy! i guess at one point he was pretty hot.
so her voice got wrecked. people age, whaddya expect? she was extremely beautiful (wow, almost perfect!) at a young age, but even the most beautiful woman in the world ages and loses that stunning young beauty. at least she's not a brainless bimbo like britney spears or miley cyrus and all the stupid poptart wenches of today. she seems like a very wise, confident gal. i like her.
If the interviewer had REALLY read the book he would know that she makes it perfectly clear that she didn't resort to prostitution whilst 'living on the wall' (or infact at anytime)...he's lucky she's nice & didn't walk out....what a lying jerk
Such an exquisite beauty in her youth....so sad to see what the ravages of time and drug use have done - BUT she's a survivor, and got her head sufficiently together to make a comeback. Gutsy!
Her singing voice, which was never very exciting to begin with, has been completely destroyed by drugs, cigarettes, and alcohol and has been for many years.
May God guide you after having saved you several times. I am a fan through my parents who listened your songs whole my youth. I liked it and you make part of my memories. But remember that you will turn back to Him and be prepared at that time...A good soul who thinks about you and wishes you a safe trip, amin
As a German I didn't know her, just found this by accident now on YT. A very interesting interview, and a very interesting person. She seems to have kept a certain air of innocence and positive naivity through all these years.
@ColdCaseSweetHeart Please don't forget Nico, I know that she was a model once and supposedly died of a heroin overdose, but her voice has an amazing range and is truly haunting, for instance in the song:
It was a pleasure, then . . . I going to check her out on wikipedia. peace .
I saw her one evening in 1985 sitting at the bar in The Cherry Pit (West Village) talking to another woman and i was too shy to intrude - it was after "Broken English" was released and i was so happy to see her - i will always admire her

What a whore! This Peshotanu don't know the word remorse. She had a husband at the beginning and a child but even so she left them because of that DRUGJAGGER. Now how lovely is that!? Her misery were rightfully her curse.
I love her, she's very talented. Even though her voice is quite ruined, I still find it very beautiful. I'm into this rough, scratchy element in it, not only in her voice. I even like Tom Waits' voice sometimes.
What I think is that in her case, and I hear it whenever I listen to "post-crisis" records of hers - espacially live records - this roughness gives her voice something dramatic to it, a lot of feeling. And I love it.
His infedilities is one of the reasons. Also, she lived in Jagger's shadow. Jagger didn't want her to spend too much time on her career when she with him. She explains why she left Jagger in her autobiography. Also, after she left him, she had gained weight (about 50 pounds) because she was drinking . Jagger tried to win her back but was appalled by her appearance. That's when she realized that Jagger valued the women he took as his girlfriend for superficial reasons.
Tom Waits and Lou Reed Can't "sing" either- I'm 28 and prefer her later work. PJ Harvey and Nick Cave say that her album Broken English was the 1sy album they heard using adult language to talk about adult themes. American Idol has ruined what people think of as artistry.
@Ponyboy1 I would agree that Lou Reed's singing is very weak. On the other hand, I feel strongly that Tom Waits can sing, and sing well. He's on key, stylized, and emotive.
i read in a magazine that when they were in australia filming ned kelly and she went into hospital mick was by her side when she woke up and the first thing she said was "wild horses couldn't drag me away" and then he wrote the song, i guess it makes sense "i watched you suffer" like he watched her suffer, i dont know how true it is though, i mean its a good story and why not make up and awesome story for a beautiful song? its better if you believe it i think
technical ability does not a good singer make. look at Dylan, an amazing singer. same thing with Johnny Cash. i find her voice incredibly vulnerable and affecting.
You don't fall in love with someone based on physical appearance and I think Bianca was beautiful but actually its been said he didn't love Bianca the way he loved Marianne.
Thanks Valentina for ur info...I meant I know he loved Marianne the most of all his girls as Ive heard and he loved Bianca cos she was different just why he married Bianca and not Marianne..that was my question and I think he didnt married Marianne because of her troubles with drugs..I think...
It was Marianne faithfull who left Jagger . He runt a lot after her but she was deep in the drugs (all of them , but she more) and she had a joung child .
Bianca , well , the bad thongs sad she was a very luxury call girl (but she pretend she was a dauther of a diplomate ).Them marriage from the beggin was bad.
He was very much in love with Marianne . She camed from a very reach aristocratic family.

Anita Pallenberg beautiful? lmfao she was a disgusting ho in need of a bath with a sh*t eating grin to boot, yuk! the stones must've been high to bang her
A women can sleep with whomever and how many she wants and always has been allowed to. The only difference is that history has dictated the levels of public discretion.
If a women does it like Britney Spears and hangs her ass out in public like a mangey dog, however she is going to disgust people.
CLASS is a result of the measure of intelligence a women has.
Despite the haughty British accent (uuuurgh) this one whory baby-boom slapper.
In spite of all the drugs and drama, she has aged well. Ever noticed how heroin addicts get really long faces and deep, raspy voices? Well, it just makes her more sexy...
I don't think she aged well. Her face and voice reflect decades of drug addiction and heavy drinking. I never was an admirer of Marianne Faithfull. She was always pretentious and haughty, even though she was a hard-core junkie.
You mean she got addicted, tried to kill herself, was dumped by Mick Jagger, and STILL HAD SELF ESTEEM, A SENSE OF HER OWN WORTH. I can see how that would offend a self-righteous uptight person.
If she only had EGO, she would have crumbled long ago. She talks like a human being, about learning about the kindness of people, about how she got well, about needing help from others, even about being lucky. She learned to value herself, as a mere, mortal, human being. She's survived the loss of her looks and her youth. You can call it ego strength, but I think it's positive.
Dont know...the only reason I think it could be true is because she also went into a bit of detail about how surprised she was when he said it...who knows (though I've kinda cringed at the thought of Keith knowing that bit was in the book!)
hi there i wonder if somebody could please tell me the name of one of her songs ...i have the lyrics in my head here they are and from which album. please.
" Don't fly to high my little bird"
Excuse the ignorance but i just can't seem to place it or find it
It seems as if i will just have to continue my search. The lyrics are more in the line of " Don;t fly to high my little bird, because if you do you might get hurt, you can spread your wings when we reach for the stars" dont know if that helps a little more, if not thank you for the comment i appreciate
I think that's the name of the song - "Don't fly too high my little bird". I don't know if it was ever sung by Marianne Faithfull. One of the songs she's singing in this video is called "This Little Bird". She's singing it in the very beginning of the video.
Marianne Faithful co-wrote "Sister Morphine" (uncredited, I believe) and was in Kenneth Anger films. She cool as cool can be. A true 60s legend, not a just a pretty face but a great deal of talent.
I think he's just shocked at how casual she is about everything. She's casual about her SUICIDE ATTEMPT, for God's sake. She took 150 pills, and was in a coma for days. And she's like, la de dah, I was just having a bad day.
She did everything that was available at the time..heroin,cocaine, pot, LSD & alcohol..she was so fragile, but turned it around & became an Iron Butterfly..She's Great.
You can get the movie on DVD and also its soundtrack on Amazon. I'm noy sure if it can be shipped outside of North America. The UK has its own version of Amazon. I haven't checked the UK Amazon website yet for the film's availability.
I don't get it. The lady used to have a decent voice. But when you take out the bit about being Jagger's girlfriend, you don't have anything. I do like her version of As Tears Go By, much moreso than The Stones' version. But apart from that, I don't get it. I....I am sorry, but I don't get it.
I'm trying to answer my own as why to Marianne's friends may not have been looking for her when she on the streets. In show business, you can be famous at one moment and a has-been the next day. I used to sing at a small club and when I was younger and I had a lot of fans at that time. When I stopped singing at the club, my fans completely disappeared. Unfortunately, it's a line of work in which you have very few real friends.
Actually she did stay with friends from time to time, and the guy that got her to record "Rich Kids Blues " literally found her on the street, and gave her a place to live. I hope that helps some. I read her biography and watched her dvd. Really interesting stuff.
I read her autobiography too. Didn't she say that when she was on the streets, she would go to stay with her mother from time to time? In an interview, Marianne said that her friends wouldn't be able to find her when she on the streets.I guess they didn't hang out in the part of town. Also, in another interview Marianne said she borrowed money from her mother during that time. I'd really like to see the "Dreaming My Dreams" dvd. Her life is quite fascinating!
Yep , all that is true. Also, one guy found her and recorded "Rich Kid Blues" and got her kind of back on track. I agree , reading about her is fascinating !
Producer Mike Leander found her on the streets and helped her record "Rich Kid Blues" in 1971. That album was shelved until 1985. Her voice had changed a lot during the time the album was made because of cocaine abuse and smoking (according to Wikipedia site). With her album "Broken English" in 1979, she found success again. She could have been a major recording artist/actress but she lost so many years because she was either playing housewife w/Jagger or heavily into drugs.
oh pleez she left her husband child for mick; dont blame him. we all have choices in our lives

Bianca , well , the bad thongs sad she was a very luxury call girl (but she pretend she was a dauther of a diplomate ).Them marriage from the beggin was bad.
He was very much in love with Marianne . She camed from a very reach aristocratic family.

Marianne Faithfull was descended from aristocracy but she actually came from a comfortable middle class home she didn't grow up in wealth.

Men talk openly about who they have sex with and want to have sex with without being judged as lesser people for it.
Actually there are women who discreetly have sex with who they want but still get labeled as whores or whatever when someone else reveals it.

A women can sleep with whomever and how many she wants and always has been allowed to. The only difference is that history has dictated the levels of public discretion.
If a women does it like Britney Spears and hangs her ass out in public like a mangey dog, however she is going to disgust people.
CLASS is a result of the measure of intelligence a women has.
Despite the haughty British accent (uuuurgh) this one whory baby-boom slapper.

No she is not candid here....but she was very candid in her original autobiography where she said Jagger told her he wanted to such Keith's cock

And Mick was watching her while she was doing a blowjob to Keith ?
Why not ! That is what I called a good friend.
I bet Anita did the same to Mick...

In spite of all the drugs and drama, she has aged well. Ever noticed how heroin addicts get really long faces and deep, raspy voices? Well, it just makes her more sexy...

I don't think she aged well. Her face and voice reflect decades of drug addiction and heavy drinking. I never was an admirer of Marianne Faithfull. She was always pretentious and haughty, even though she was a hard-core junkie.
cynthiacher 3 years ago
You mean she got addicted, tried to kill herself, was dumped by Mick Jagger, and STILL HAD SELF ESTEEM, A SENSE OF HER OWN WORTH. I can see how that would offend a self-righteous uptight person.

She doesn't strike me as someone with a lot of self-esteem. A lot of EGO, but not self-esteem. There's a big difference.
cynthiacher 3 years ago
If she only had EGO, she would have crumbled long ago. She talks like a human being, about learning about the kindness of people, about how she got well, about needing help from others, even about being lucky. She learned to value herself, as a mere, mortal, human being. She's survived the loss of her looks and her youth. You can call it ego strength, but I think it's positive.

girlonone 3 years ago
Dont know...the only reason I think it could be true is because she also went into a bit of detail about how surprised she was when he said it...who knows (though I've kinda cringed at the thought of Keith knowing that bit was in the book!)

hi there i wonder if somebody could please tell me the name of one of her songs ...i have the lyrics in my head here they are and from which album. please.
" Don't fly to high my little bird"
Excuse the ignorance but i just can't seem to place it or find it
thanks
trishmusic 4 years ago
not sure...it would seem these could be lyrics from her 'This Little Bird', however that line is not in the song.
The band Hellfire also has a song called 'Little Bird', which has the line 'Don't fly so high little bird'.
chuckfinn 4 years ago
Thank you, but it is not This little bird,
It seems as if i will just have to continue my search. The lyrics are more in the line of " Don;t fly to high my little bird, because if you do you might get hurt, you can spread your wings when we reach for the stars" dont know if that helps a little more, if not thank you for the comment i appreciate
trishmusic 4 years ago
any luck finding the song?
chuckfinn 4 years ago
I think that's the name of the song - "Don't fly too high my little bird". I don't know if it was ever sung by Marianne Faithfull. One of the songs she's singing in this video is called "This Little Bird". She's singing it in the very beginning of the video.

She's an indirect descendant of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. Apparently, masochism still runs in her family.

Marianne Faithful co-wrote "Sister Morphine" (uncredited, I believe) and was in Kenneth Anger films. She cool as cool can be. A true 60s legend, not a just a pretty face but a great deal of talent.

I think he's just shocked at how casual she is about everything. She's casual about her SUICIDE ATTEMPT, for God's sake. She took 150 pills, and was in a coma for days. And she's like, la de dah, I was just having a bad day.

You can get the movie on DVD and also its soundtrack on Amazon. I'm noy sure if it can be shipped outside of North America. The UK has its own version of Amazon. I haven't checked the UK Amazon website yet for the film's availability.

I don't get it. The lady used to have a decent voice. But when you take out the bit about being Jagger's girlfriend, you don't have anything. I do like her version of As Tears Go By, much moreso than The Stones' version. But apart from that, I don't get it. I....I am sorry, but I don't get it.

I'm trying to answer my own as why to Marianne's friends may not have been looking for her when she on the streets. In show business, you can be famous at one moment and a has-been the next day. I used to sing at a small club and when I was younger and I had a lot of fans at that time. When I stopped singing at the club, my fans completely disappeared. Unfortunately, it's a line of work in which you have very few real friends.
wintergreen88 4 years ago
Actually she did stay with friends from time to time, and the guy that got her to record "Rich Kids Blues " literally found her on the street, and gave her a place to live. I hope that helps some. I read her biography and watched her dvd. Really interesting stuff.
timquinn66 4 years ago
I read her autobiography too. Didn't she say that when she was on the streets, she would go to stay with her mother from time to time? In an interview, Marianne said that her friends wouldn't be able to find her when she on the streets.I guess they didn't hang out in the part of town. Also, in another interview Marianne said she borrowed money from her mother during that time. I'd really like to see the "Dreaming My Dreams" dvd. Her life is quite fascinating!
wintergreen88 4 years ago
Yep , all that is true. Also, one guy found her and recorded "Rich Kid Blues" and got her kind of back on track. I agree , reading about her is fascinating !
timquinn66 4 years ago
Producer Mike Leander found her on the streets and helped her record "Rich Kid Blues" in 1971. That album was shelved until 1985. Her voice had changed a lot during the time the album was made because of cocaine abuse and smoking (according to Wikipedia site). With her album "Broken English" in 1979, she found success again. She could have been a major recording artist/actress but she lost so many years because she was either playing housewife w/Jagger or heavily into drugs.
