Razorlight Popworld Interview

[WillSkillz0]

Not really a big fan of Borrell, but if he doesn't want to talk about something then he doesn't want to talk about something. I see no problem with that!

[Cla900]

jesus, johnny is the axl rose of razorlight.

except..worse. what a cunt.

[ClickChase]

rubbish interviewers

[julesbroemusic]

Johnny Borrell wasn't good enough for the Libertines and he is simply a prick..which is a shame because Razorlight are alright

[inculoalbalena]

he's actually really nice. they were shitty interviewers and he gets a hard time.

[xeloraxyeahx]

The Strokesssssss yayyy.

[kolwood]

Christ he's a pretentious dick

[ELCNUmorFnaMehT]

Borrell = self important cunt

[deadmandanny88]

Johnny Borrell a failed libertine...

[johannaGreiff]

okay.. not so good interview... But strokes on the end yay :D haha . But i do love razorlights music :)

[arcticboy94]

Well, that got a bit awkward :S

[AlexGoodwinDrums]

The best thing about this video was seeing The Strokes at the end.

[TicksnSticks]

what did he say at 2:54?

[inculoalbalena]

@TicksnSticks 'I'd much rather you didn't, to be honest'

[TicksnSticks]

alexa's "where did you get your cardigan" was comedy gold

[yassymeeny]

3:14 - this is why people hate him. Up until then he seems like a right bloke

[deadmandanny88]

Borrell is just a libertine reject!

[imcharlotteee]

lmao... i remember watching this and cringin xD that poor woman :')

I don't blame him for not lettin her ask him that stuff though... I'd get so miffed if I was him with some of the stuff people write. :///

[mycharlotteromance]

very bad interviewers...

[wdsa8d]

@mycharlotteromance they're nothing compared to simon and miquita

[Pixieamy]

What an awful dull interview.

[ripponutd]

razorlight kick ass

[lecmontes]

me importa un coño lo que pienses de Borrell!

pedazo de mierda!! RaZORLIGHT sin Johnny no es nothing

te ahogas n tu propia mierda!

[Ulmeyda08]

The drummer is a horse face.

[ELCNUmorFnaMehT]

That Borrell is a right cunt

[teadogdog]

Andy is so f**king bitchy. He said a lot bad things to the press about Razorlight and Johnny when he left. He even said that being in Razorlight was the most horrible thing happened in his life! F**king bastard!

No Johnny, no Razorlight! Coz he's the soul of the band!!!

[thepixie01]

The band has no soul :(

[ciaracustard]

Isn't the frontman supposed to be? You've got to admit, Johnny's got a fucking ego on him.

[jostspaceship]

Razorlight are just another bunch of shit bastard, indie boy, let's go to topman and buy clothes, talentless arseholes...indie music is so bad, they barely play their instuments and when they do its like watching a child on guitar hero. It's bands like these that are ruining the music scene of Britain by pretending they're something new when they're not. They're all so far up their own arse about the music they write but its hard to see why, because its crap.

[nadinesmoczynski]

wtf

razorlight have some of the most expressive lyrics,...

who gives a shit if the singers ass its the music ur listening to....

[Leguitar1]

Borrell is a dick.

I actually hate him.

[undeadcyberfreak]

fist band on the moon..hahhahhahaha johnny's a legend

[thrips91]

That Johnny Borrell, with his focking ego..

He thinks he's a better songwriter than Bob Dylan, that Razorlight is better than The Arctic Monkeys, and says he is the best songwriter of his generation...

[ciaracustard]

Awh, poor Alex and Alexa that looked well awkward at the end! Glad that wasn't me!

[sineadx11]

ahahaha, what a twat!

[isseyhatestom]

hahahahahahaha!!!

[mineminemine124]

pretty funny how they have razorlight on and show the strokes right after

[rgwrhys]

What the fuck is going on with the neck of Johnny's top?

[emilyth09]

I think that Richie above is the twat! come back when u have half the talent that johnny has!! you dont sound like you know anything about music. Admittedly nothing will top Up All Night, but there new music is still great, i saw them live last week and they were one of if not the best live act i've seen!

[Richie1989A]

A band that had potential but a combination of a twat of a frontman and increasing cheese factor just about killed them

[ciaracustard]

Omg, Andy's left now :(

[bummwicked]

he did????????? why??????

[ciaracustard]

"Personal reasons". But everyone knows they've been going in different directions. I think Johnny pissed him off.

[bummwicked]

oh...i forgot that. :(  thanks.

[oneminutetomidknight]

that is too funny

[whatkatdid]

Ha ha, good on him. I think sometimes the likes of Alexa Chung (although admittedly not too bad here) get a bit ahead of themselves and get a bit cheeky... like they think they are better than the celebrities they interview.

They totally didn't know what to say when he said not. Well done Razorlight!

[jonmufc07]

he doesn't like music to be 'cheesy'

erm. 'burberry blue eyes' and 'tabloid lover' are two of the cheesiest songs in the world

[jonmufc07]

come on, they are. don't get me wrong i love(d) razorlight, up all night is the best album of the decade. but you must admit that their standards have dropped, they've changed their style to become more popular

[trixitwist]

Razorlight go to Paris and use Take A Dress 4 support

[ciaracustard]

Honestly, Johnny's fucking ego! I love them but he's such a twat sometimes!

[dsloveskc]

i hate bands at interviews, i love music and ahin but its just they seen so bored and look away all the time, kinda rude:L

[theinck]

NICE TO SEE YOU.... YES IT IS. its alex zane

[x3AlbinoxPrincessx3]

BORING

[5entid0s]

soooooooooooooo boring

[unbelievablechops]

shhhh

[HollowGround1]

Sweet Jesus, Mary and Joseph. That was awkward. Awful, awful band.

[PsychosisFire]

Lol well said.

[Damyhanna]

Tbh Borrell is a legend you know why? he doesnt give a shit. At Reading people hated him arebit he was playing after KOL which is a task as it is. But he fucking loved the abuse. He doesnt care if you love or hate him. THATS rock and roll imo. but yeh flame me all you want x

[NikiBale]

I won't! Love Johnny, Love Razorlight. People just need to remember that they must get asked the same stupid questions over and over. They are all about the music, not some crap in written about them in the papers. None of us are in their position,keep being hounded. So peeps, cut them some slack!

[lloyd8893]

johnny is a total twat.

[andwhataboutme]

horrible interviewers

but borrell is also a tit, yes

[PadrethePio]

The interviewers are meant to be horrible and make their interviews uncomfortable, that's what the show was kinda famous for. Unfortunately, these hosts were not as good as the previous hosts, Simon and Muqita.

[andwhataboutme]

yes i know:)

but they do it in a non-funny way, therefor they're horrible interviewers

the irony should be clear

[elleisimo]

eek, that must of been uncomfortable

[coS1x]

Danny jones got better teeth!!!!

[laurie162]

borrell, what a tit

[awaywiththefairies16]

stupid johnny. I hate artist who take themselves too sesriously. Why couldn't he just go along with it. But he's still wellll fit.

[mickosabian]

And the drummer looks like the guy from the film Mask with Cher.

[mickosabian]

Borrell needs a good beating! And thats that. Arrogant little prick.

[savorations]

MCFLY IS A BETTER BAND..

[mohaha88]

well that was an awkward interview. lol

she handled it quite badly as well...

but i do like what Borrell is wearing!

[Hughezy]

poor Jonny Borrell, it likely wanted to go home to write the same fucking song over & over again.

wanker.

[sgtLambLung]

what a self important little brat.

they have had a small bit of success and he thinks hes bob fuckin dylan or something.

in the morning we wont remember a thing about about razorshite, 1 or 2 more albums and these fools will drift into obscurity.

the sooner the better

[01stursa]

what do you think of the new one "wire to wire"

[booshulator]

wow i really liked johnny b4 i saw this,.. but i dont know now... but then again i wouldnt really when people are saying shit about me i never want to talk abou it... so i guess i understand... is it true what

hogger91 said... does e think he is better then bob dylan.. that upsets me a bit, i dont think anyone can say they r better then bob dylan

[Kalsillian]

wow seems everybody hates this band.

[rachel10131]

lol i cant belive johnny answered that whole units shifted question seriously.

[hogger91]

johnny thinks he a better lyricist than bob dylan, i think hes a twat

[whump123]

Really?! What a knob.

[mytubeusernamerocks]

they luk lk mcfly with the hair n'the outfits. I actually thought they were tryin to make fun of them...

owell...

[lottie1914]

the presenters are awful and razorlight give off a really awful vibe. they are so into themselves its embarassing. all the crouched overness.. the messy hair..overdone and unoriginal.

[19echo07]

johnny is a cunt.

that is all.

[zkagtrendy]

does any one know what the hosts were gonna ask Johnny at the end?, the kind of press questions he refuced to talk about???

IS IT jsut me or was he a arseghole at the end?????? he left the presenters in a awkward

position, the women tried to be polite but the other host kinda got pissed

[rachieh93]

I love razorlight and Johnny but I just wish he didn't come across as a bit of an arsehole, he should have just answered the questions. Then again I suppose things the press have sais have obviously upset set him so I don't know.

[rosswoof]

The things is popworld can be funny but they tend to do so at the expence of their guests.I personally wouldn't read much into the band from this.

Other interviews on pop world have been just rude; they either like a band or they don't... If they don't they will go out of their way to make them look like arseholes, which is what happened here.

[olavtrygve]

HAHAHAHAHA!

[alexatyou1]

they are all that is wrong with bands today. losers

[mik11325]

this show was only good when simon was on it after he left it just flopped

[immadeofplastic]

johnny is hot.

they could have just spent the last minute with the camera on his pretty face. that would have made good tv.

or bjorn's boots. they are cool.

johnny's brother has taste.i like fullstops.

[backupnameplease]

who says they have huge egos? or are you just taking whats been fed to you by the press?

seriously, it just seems like johnny is sick of all the bullshit in the press. good on him for ignoring it

[justthatchapLC]

RAZORSHITE

[heno8888]

johnny, what a legend.

[cheekytext]

you get two types of guests on popworld, those who take everything with a pinch of salt and those who don't. just because some are not very good at dealing with the presenters who are blatantly trying to take the piss out of them on national tv doesn't make them 'twats'.

[KeepingUpPretences]

bring back simon and miquita!

[immadeofplastic]

simon yew, miquita; never again. i hated her.

[xerinx14]

how enlightening that wass

btw johnny borelly your so much funn

sarcasmn ent funny

, but u had to say that

[xerinx14]

nah tbf the interviewers are pretty good usually

i think thyere tkaing the mic rofl

cus razorlight are so unbelieveably boring

i liked their 1st album,but then they gott way too cockyyy

[29248855]

can't wait for the third album, just praying its better than the second one

[VANTERHEYDEN]

Those 2 interviewers really don't have any talent

[Jess9239]

omg shut up all you johnny borrell haters ffs, you just hate him because he's not going to sit there and listen to things that have been said by the press. i dont think someone has an attitude problem and is a 'shithead' for that come on get a life. you all really annoy me, he's absolutely great and i think in his shoes you would all do the same !!!!!!

[yesyesjuicy]

if they were a good band, i'd be more inclined to accept their mahoosive ego

but after two awful albums they have nothing to justify it

[IgzJ]

jesus johnny borrel just doesn't want to hear boring shite from interviewers. bob dylan did the same thing. why would you watch the interview if you don't like the band

[JoeParkerAndThePower]

weeeeeeell cos i DONT like the band. i was evilly hoping they looked stupid.

not disappointed...

[Welcome2Loserville]

Johnny borrell is up his own fucking arse!

fucking twat!

[enigma19833]

Johnny Borrell is such a cunt. I actually hope he dies soon.

[xxindiexxcindyxx]

stop sayin they're borin. wat else cud they say!

x

[afalope]

johny borrell is an inarticulate, morose, dead-end, pig-fucking shithead!!!!

and he makes shit music with his boring band

[xxsianyxxxbabyxx]

you are clearly a complete whopper!!!

[enigma19833]

You are 100% correct. Borrell is a fucking waste of oxygen. Razorlight are MOR wank.

[AlbertMustang]

Christ...you are so right!

[madelinzo]

these guys are the biggest fags ever pffff LOSERSS

[twinklemepink]

i'm not from the uk, so i don't know how they're seen over there, but they're definitely perceived as this "amazing" band by teen vogue and stuff. i like them, but they need some serious help with interviews!

johnny seems kinda mean. :(

[den123mate]

such prick

[Shoopdelaang]

alexa is so beautiful!

johnny borrell i the biggest jackas, though i love razorlight and carl dalemo

[PhillyDickinson]

Razorlight are so boring, so average, so mundane.

[dizzywhore1804]

Razorlight are so cool.

:-s

Awful.

[wayimate]

What a mess! Fucking idiots one and all!

[Shade0312]

Lmao @ the end of this interview.

[twigglesz]

I love Johnny Borrell!!111111

[fellaaakalaa]

This should show everyone that the borrell is, evidentally, not cool.

Listen to him. He stumbles over his words and lacks charm and charisma, something which is paramount for a real rockstar to have

[Shade0312]

Who cares? He makes good music.

[enigma19833]

That's the thing though, he does NOT make good music!

[fellaaakalaa]

Borrell is awful

ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[licklebitofjoy]

i feel quite sorry for alex and alexa coz you can see them tryin to talk more and i think anyone whos gonna be on popworld has to not care being made fun of and borrel should have just answered those questions coz you knew they were gonna all b false

[fritzenberg]

rock stars are aloud to be arrogant but borrell is no rock star

[squarli]

Oh my god, what a bunch of twats.

[yakkitori]

haha. johnny borrell is such a tosser.

[donorleone]

bob dylan, roger waters, john lennon, marvin gaye, chuckberry...johnny borrell... no.

[xsavemyheart]

Argh I love Johnny's smile at the end when he realises quite what sort of comedy questions they actually had in mind!

[acidmaniac]

oh. it's the new guys. *clicks off*

[sophiejanebailey]

I love it when the guests on this show actually play along and understand the whole point of the presenting style. It's a shame can't be said for the likes of Beenie Man, The Kooks (Luke PRICKtchard) and the Strokes.

[mrcrimp89]

Johnny is such a twat.

[kalcaron]

He writes his lyrics with crayons.

[newaccountforfilms]

On mirrors so he can still look at himself

[heno8888]

johnny's a legend

[OGDonJuan]

he's an arrogant prick

[LiaTyson]

why do they have to force him to do what they want, if he don't wanna talk about it it's his choice, and then they make it into a big deal by making out they don't have any other questions, where did you get your cardigan, twats! they could have asked him before!

[mug3000]

johnny borrell is a dick

[Raevholl]

haha i went to the mandela-concert in Norway, and i was walking over a bridge with my best friend, and johnny and the drummer (sorry i cant rememberhis name) started talking to us! and said that we should go with them to a bar and stuff like that,and how we were so cute. they were really cocky haha! but i couldnt go tho, and i was only 15 so it was kind of strange haaha

[thisismylifeline]

i'm only 15 too! i would totally go to the bar with them...tell all my friends about it...they would probably not believe me...

[Raevholl]

yeah well, in norway, you cant get into bars if you're only 15! ahaha

[iamjohn89]

johnny borell is a twat

[southstar66]

near the end was well akward johnny's gettin well seriouss

lol the question ws well random

was razorlight the first band to perform on the moon

[BananaCo12321]

the drummer looks like rocky dennis hhahahhaha

[tieroll]

Did they break up?

[GirlAfraid1854]

wish they had...

[loztab]

well tbh he said he was the best song writer to live

[Asphalthabitat]

he said he was better than dylan....

[loztab]

no he said best song writer to live and then later he was better than dylan which made me laugh!

[dazovboro2]

Alexa Chung mmmm. Johnny Borrell's a prick, Couldn't make it as a Libertine coz he was a junkie

[Tod3]

Coz he was a junkie he couldnt join the libertines...I dont like the man...but think that through.

[dazovboro2]

he was part of the libs, got shot out for the same reason they froze doherty out when they made it big

[Tod3]

Theres about a million different stories on why he got parted company. Nearly as many for as why Doherty left. All I know is Pete and Carl even at that early stage were well known drug users and Pete was dealing on the side. Would they really chuck someone out for using? Especially given that they declared themselves 'libertines'?

[dazovboro2]

mate, well said, all i know is that that borrell was the first crack head, then doherty thn barat, i need to more read of that book i've got

[Tod3]

Think Doherty and Barat did heroin together...they kinda moved pretty similiarly along together once Barat introduced Doherty to pot. I know Pete Doherty helped Borrell clean up which is a perfectly normal English sentence.lol.

[dazovboro2]

Borrell was unreliable, never turned up for sessions or gigs, buy last of the rock romantics

[ronaldo2734]

He went on tour with another band leaving the libs in the lurch

[eigenaar24]

Johnny Borrell is a musical genious. respect him for that :)

[samop001]

are you having a laugh =|

razorlight are hardly the beatles are they,

there was a reason they were getting chanted razorSHITE at leeds/reading :)

sorry but borrells a dick 'ed

[sak868]

lool shittest interview

poor alexnalexa

[emilyjellybellyleaf]

he's got a silly cardy.

[stopher69]

wow! I find it quite funny how all of a suden its cool 2 h8 johney borrel! how many twats posting negative comments actually know him?! hmmmm.... thought so!!

[ladylusciouz]

popworld was so much better with simon amstell and maquita they would have cu the tension

[marchini87]

u bein sarcastic?

[MakePieNotWarPlease]

I REALLY hate Johnny Borrell.

[ayani10]

Whys that

[MakePieNotWarPlease]

Because he's up his own arse!

He called himself a genius and that if he got 10 minutes with a guitar he could write a number one hit and that Razorlight are the best band.

[emilyjellybellyleaf]

WOW!

He isnt wearing white drain pipes/ t-shirt.

:) Twat.

[mzpunkjunkie13]

where is this band from lol

[marchini87]

with mainstream commercial shite like this, it's not just about music. Razorlight aren't famous becasue every song they do is brilliant, it's just about people wanting 2 like a band like razorligh that consider themselves 'indie', therefore making razorlight fans indie and cool

[badfex]

Speaks the truth you do =]

[shaneanu]

exactly, so these people spend their money on music they don't like just to look indie and cool..

[marchini87]

u bein sarcastic?

[marchini87]

how can u defend this guy, he's a fuckin idiot

[marchini87]

listen u fussy little shit, apparently u don't understand that we're not all 12 year old girls with posters of dear johnny all over the bedroom walls

maybe when u grow up ul learn that overdosing doesn't necessarily mean dying and that there's nothing admirable or 'creative' in a man dressed in tight white clothing and that band members tend to want the lead 2 do a solo BECAUSE THEY FUCKING HATE THE FAG

when i saw johnnys pose trying to look like jim morrison it made me fuckin sick
