  • Yeah, the magic world of plastic surgery.

  • is it his own hair or a wig ?

  • Wish he would do a 3rd Oxygene album. The 2nd one from 1997 was actually better than the first in my opinion.

  • omg do you ppl realize he is 60 years old here? wtf,,,????

  • ♡ P~ UFO -=0-0=- Wooh..!

  • His musical powers comes from his...HAIR! lol

  • Will this guy ever age? He's 60 in this video. It's scary.

  • @Tony32 Yeah, and looks like 35 :)

  • @Tony32 Just makes you want to kick him, really, doesn't it?

  • live in your living room is fantastic to hear and watch. I don`t care what other people say about his music, wether you listen to Kraftwork, jean michel or tangerine dream they have one thing in common, in my ears they are all masters in what they do and they have a relaxing element to it and they are enjoyable to listen to. plus if you have seen any of them live in concert ( i`ve seen JMJ live in London in 93` he was brilliant!)

  • Really good-looking man. I must say.

  • No, Edgar Froese is the father of electronic music!

  • Here is 2 reasons why this man is not from this planet

    1)he does not age nor his music.

    2)his music cannot be made by a human being.

  • I have the unbelieveble luck to see one og his shows in Budapest lately from a VIP place. The guy is brilliant.

    The instruments and the show was very impressive, I had a feeling, that some alien found his way into there in the music and is trying to communicate with us.

    He also talked a bit about writing music - that really stuck in my head, as I hve no idea how one can write that type of music into a piece of paper...

    Did he actually invent the special instruments he plays on??

  • baqhahaha Pop Music? hand me another crank of tHe shit chain! THIS is not pop... THIS ma friends... is pure brilliance... and the foundation of the music we hear today... unfortunately the emo sadists have NO clue who this legend is! sad sad sad! luv this man...he saved me from a DEFINITE SUIDE AT 17...EMOTIONALLY SUPERB! SUCK MY DOOODLE TEENAGERS OF 2010....this MAN FOUNDED YOUR MUSIC :) respect!

  • @jalarida

    Now THAT'S spiritual healing :) Good thing you made the right choice.

    Some more spiritual stuff :D :

  • He's an ubermensch, that's why he doesn't age. Listen to his music - it sounds like it's from either an alien civilization, a parrallel universe or a few thousand years into the future.

  • PTDR comment il a un vieille accent

  • live a spiritual life or be very creative and you will also be looking yong like him. When you are busy with something and the thime goes by very quick without you noticing it you actually age slower. Its just my opinion dunno if it's a fact

  • Jarre es el mejor me gustaria que viniera a chile seria cool

  • you should now that on tv they seem to be much younger ;D lots of make up

  • remember : JEAN MICHEL JARRE OSLO 2010, august 28

  • I love this video, Jean Michel looks, 10 times better now, than 20 years ago!!. , This is not only the result of technology or advances in medicine, but his personality and genius. Musicians like him, are beautifully eternal. Well done Jean Michel!! Thanks very much aljazeera english por posting this great video! Lucy from Argentina

  • The Master Jarre!!! Good Work

  • I am really looking forward to go and listen him in Cardiff in October...

  • @adek81 i wish i knew sooner... was he good?

  • wow he looks like hes 25 or 30 years old but hes almost 60??

  • seen him live in bratislava. i was like :O i never seen something like this before

  • I've always liked his music, so please don't get me wrong... but I look at the live performance, and all I can think of is a bunch a guys who should be giving massages to rich, spoiled women at some silly resort somewhere.

  • Jean Michelle Jarre, what can I say, the man and his music has inspired me in so many different ways, evoking emotions which in turn have fine tuned my abilities as a professional chef de cuisine. I bought the Album equinox with my first pay cheque, my whole pay gone... but in return I got what can only be describe as heaven on Earth. Thank you Jean.

  • That sounds like a interesting tale

  • Mad creators in 60s and 70s. I hear ya. :)

    And he looks like 35. He's 60.

  • He look like one on 900

  • thats one hell of a studio

  • He must be a vegetarian to look like this at the age of more than 60.

  • EXELENTE!!!!!!!!

  • EntertainmentERA i would like to give me some instructions then:) i am very sensitive person...

  • IT IS INTERESTING!

  • The god father of techno. :D

  • I thank for all his music

  • As a teenager, I used to love Jarre, but moved into other areas of music afterwards. I still admire what he's done, and it brings back lots of memories. I've never seen an interview with him before, so it's quite interesting to see him.

    He was 59 when this was done! He doesn't just look good, he looks unnervingly good - I'm some 25 years younger than him, and I don't look as good as he does! :)

  • J M J great allways...

  • I can't imagine the bliss of dropping acid at a Jean-Michel Jarre concert.

  • Ich glaube er ist der schönste Mann den ich je gesehen habe. He look so fantastic. His Hair is wonderfull, his Eyes, his Voice, he is perfect !!

    Er ist einfach genial in seinem Aussehen und in seiner Music.

  • This guy does not age at all. You would think if the goverments put money towards research about music and our health and their connection but no. It is obvious  that Jarre's music satisfies him spiritually as it does to us and therefor it satisfies our other healthes. Maybe we are uncovering the fact that spiritual health is the most important kind of health.

    I believe stress, depression etc. are the real killer. If you are happy then your body will be happy too :D!

  • @EntertainmentERA Surgery

  • @EntertainmentERA , yes, but there is something strange about him....a 60 year old man cannot look like that, even if he is in perfect peace with himself...dunno...

  • @EntertainmentERA Your body will actually get literally sick if you're going through some emotional troubles.

  • @EntertainmentERA well, stress does damge the immune system and high blood pressure...it's a fact that depressed people die younger

  • @EntertainmentERA GOOD WELL SAID!!

    

  • Il faut qu'il refasse un concert comme à la Défense! ça fait plaisir de voir quelqu'un de connu qui sait s'exprimer en anglais

  • Es gibt doch einen Song von ihm der am anfang so trompetenklänge hat und meistens in filmen gezeigt wird wenn etwas langsam und gefühl voll ist.... zb bei Sex Up- Jungs habens nicht leicht. fast am schluss bei der show. wo die kontrahenten ein video von sich zeigen.... weiss jemand welchen Song ich meine und kann mir jemand sagen wie dieser song heisst?

  • @Sunnebeck  Oxygene Part II

  • But remember, Jarre is French :@. So try not to criticize other people's accent when they speak english, specially if they are genious like him!!!

  • He looks so young because he takes care of himself. Remember kids: cigarettes, alcohol, bad diet and lack of exercise are bulls**t.

  • ¿Pero qué te has hecho en la cara, padre?

  • He is kinda cute... I love the hair :P

  • @SonatinaGirl

    He's 62 but looks like 35. I guess, no alcohol, no drugs (smoke, antidepressants ect), no lack of exercise. He will live long because of music.

  • @MaBu888Sur-ge-ry

  • he is cool...and THE FATHER OF ELECTRONIC MUSIC.

  • @sam4malaysia ....he is very cool, but definitely not the father of electronic music...

  • @sam4malaysia

    not THE father, but one of the fathers. Another "father" would be Klaus Schulze. Search for him, try ("Friedrich Nietzsche" by Schulze , its on youtube).

  • @sam4malaysia Don't forget Kraftwerk and Stockhausen. ;-)

  • @PanicPictures hei guys..check out Tim simenon and gui boratto.

  • @sam4malaysia I think that would be Ralf Hütter

  • @sam4malaysia

    Not at all, but he was one of the first to successfully commercialize it. There`s a big difference.

  • @sam4malaysia No it is Kraftwerk who is the fathers of electronic music

  • @sam4malaysia Well... One of the Fathers. ;) Others also come to mind, be it Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk or the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, Isao Tomita... But Jarre definitely belongs into the group of the important pioneers. :)

  • @commanderkruge Thanks for the info.

  • @sam4malaysia And before all them you had the *real* pioneers like Stockhausen, but there we are in the realm of music that really isn't too masses-compatible. ;) For me personally stuff starts with the electronic popular music of Jarre&Co. :)

  • It's cool listen English with French acent :D

  • yes indeed. Its so cute the accent

  • Jean-Michel Jarre is a genius. We are proud to have him in France. He allows the french music to beam around the world, and to reach the universal sounds

    Regards from France

  • Is the guy really 58 years old at the time??? ... He looks late 30s

  • how old is jarre?

    he looks like 35

    he was 5 years old?

  • He was born on 24 august, 1948...

  • congratulation for this anniversary to the grand pioneer of musica electronica :-) from a fan thanks for showing !

  • anyone know what type of 3D it was filmed in?

    eg blue/red or real d or imax?

  • Je taime Jean Michel!!! your music is not possible to put into words!!! we love you here in Argentina!!!...

  • Jarre Forever!

    Genius indeed :)

  • Istenem! Miylen jóképű, kedves, és helyes! Imdánivaló, pedig van már vagy 60éves!

    És a zenéje! Hm.... szeretem, nagyon-nagyon!!!

  • 2mucchi : How come u be so hateful and ignorant !!

    Jean-Michel is a great Artist and whether u like it or not he is FRENCH and proud to be it !

    So, get a life ' Turkish ) loser ! And LONG LIVE ARMMENIA !!!

    Anyway, regards from France.

  • Ecellent chance to see an interview with the Great French Musical Genius!! Thank you for posting and Thank you Christel for sharing!!

  • yep! the age difference between them is mere 10 years...

  • 0:35 was ein park

  • Honestly. You can keep your britney, black eyed peas, miley cyrus and other crappy commercially non challenged groups to your slef. I'd pick Jarre any day of the week over your "new talents".

  • genius!!

  • it has a voice like a 30 years old man

  • his head looks to big with that haircut ¡¡¡¡¡

  • "not me... him" LOL!!! Pure class

  • JMJ: 61!

  • this guy is one of the unique people that understands the true language of music

  • hey hyperdrive, is that the ONLY question you have for this brilliant composer, who brought us cutting edge brilliant new age music in the 70s ? you want to know why he doesnt cut his hair like a hip-hop criminal?

  • so soo true!! :D

  • He has had his hair short, but he looked like an extra from a boyband. I personally, think his hair's brilliant.

  • me 2

  • maybe he wants to hide his hair loss

  • great artist,but i dont like all of his works but,he is the grand father of modern music.

  • I'm so pleased I have been 3 times in Oslo watching JMJ there and 3 times I have greet him and shaked his hands :) I wish he could come to my hometown Aalesund in Norway and have a concert here :) That will be my great dream and great wish :) JMJ love still you music <3 I will not stop listening to you music before you die or stop playing New Age/Electronic :D

  • you must like your ass coz your speaking from it though i,m sure you,ll hit the same magnatude of global success spanning three decades and i,m sure you,ll bbe remembered for all your works in years to come yeah so like your ass coz its all you got mate

  • Can't believe you took my comment seriously. In the last week I noticed a wart on my left cheek. What does that represent?

  • he does what he loves hence his youthfull looks i pulled out of my degree to follow in my passion of writing my music is a hobby maybe one day but i do it for me mainly thats the thing money and executive stress is fucking pointless let this guy be a good example of that

  • Czarodziej muzyki elektronicznej.

  • on jest geniuszem

  • Nie przeczę geniuszostwa i chylę czoła

    przed tobą jestem 43 letnim człowiekiem

    i słucham JARRA od 25 lat niewątpilwie

    geniusz nazwałem go czarodziejem

    bo najciekawsze są jego światło i dzwięk

    Pozdrowienia

  • I bought the Cassette Live in Houston Texas with a lazer light show and a bunch of TV news crews were all over it and part of the news made its way onto the tape.

  • i too... but he's 61. (but seems younger)

  • the best after Vangelis!

  • These geniuses (Vangelis and Jarre) are not comparable. They both play synthesizers but not the same style of music. They both are the best on their own style.

  • Congrats Jean - Michel with His "KID"

    30th Birthday .... All stared from Oxygene ! ! ! Real MASTERPIECE !

  • 1.000.000.000.000.000.000...st­ars rating !

    1000 of masterpieces....!

    ONE JARRE ! ! !

    Genius,Super,Gifted MUSICIAN !

    Timeless CREATIONS !

  • Meni je on prekrasan ja bih se udala za njega, iako sam vec udata

  • Sto jes jes :)

  • I saw him in Latvia....it was fantastic!!!

  • His musical intelect cannot be underestimated....it is not only surperb but is also unique....thats what makes it so great.....

  • Damn! I hope I look that good at 59 (he's 60 next month I believe)

  • It must be all the time he spends indoors out of the sun (on his synths). The only time he goes out is every few years to do a massive concert and even then he wears asbestos gloves and mirrored shades ;)

    Legend!

  • HA HA! LOL :o)

  • amazing what some botox and hair dye can do :)

  • No kidding, he looks like he is 30....i saw him live in Houston and he signed the "Oxygen" album, which i still have.

  • He's like his music: timeless. ;-)Seriously, I think his music is good for health.

  • What a fucking legend.

  • Jean-Michel Jarre..papacito!! He's beautiful..but he needs to tour South America!!

    Super, ça c'est magnifique!

  • ...para que, para que alborote el gallinero Latino?

  • Jean Michel Jarre is cool this is the first interview I have seen he is a electronic legend and a very interesting person.

  • he is trying new stuff but what ever he does he is style a legend his stuff is great

  • He used to be so cool - now he is just ok! Loved his older stuff

  • Only just!

  • I am going to a JMJ concert tonight (in Denmark). I am soooo excited... going to experience to world of Oxygene.... whooohooo.

    Perfect music!!!

  • U were in Musikhuset? I was there too :D

  • JMJ is so hot!!!And I am 22 yrs old

  • You 're right.... Jarre is my first erotic dream... i want to f... him all night long!!!!!!

  • Me too ... definitely. To be married to Jarre must be heaven.

  • surgery may be involved

  • I just came back from ultra music festival and I was transported by underworld, not the same stuff not the same music but I think he could be a great add up to the over all festival some people would love it, some other would rediscover it, some would discover it but overall I think he would let a great impression on people as he always does... I'm 25 and that guy reminds me my childhood with my parents vinyls with vangelis...awesome I can't wait to hear his new stuff

  • 59Y 7M

  • Oh he has. But around this time,he was using a lot of styling and makeup I believe. Trying to recapture his youth.

  • Świetny muzyk. Byłem na jego 'sighning session' w Warszawie (24.03.2007) gdzie podpisywał swoj najnowszy album Teo & Tea który oczywiście mam ;)

  • Agree. First time I actually see JMJ being intervjued (maybe I havent paid much attension) and he seems quite nice. And must I say much better to listen too him and his english than to Sir Forst`s! Ha ha.. I can hardly understand the old man, thats how well spoken he is. Thanks for the upload.

  • frost is a famous and respected interviewer from the UK. but he appears to be getting old now and i feel he struggles to talk sometimes, hes a bit slurry. also maybe entertainment doesn't click as well as doing politics

  • JMJ seems like a normal decent person - I like the cut of his jib. Interesting what he was saying about the old electronic instruments. Thanks for the upload.

  • Jean michel is a legend and a pioneer

  • Poor man's Klaus Wunderlich.

  • dude are your deaf?

  • i hasten to add, i am 26 not 16!!!

  • ohhhh seems so wrong, but Jean Michel Jarre is hot!! I'm 16 and remember hearing oxygene at age 5, have been a fan of electronic music ever since, am a huge fan of Air, who are also french, i defo believe the french are pioneers of electronica

  • Indeed a he says in a way, the old instruments still have there potential compared to the new plastic stuff of these days. Vintage usage of instruments, put jean michel behind them. And you got a piece of music that is unsurpassed. Passion,simplicity,feeling..as music should be. Emotion, jean michel is the man together with vangelis, klaus shultz and more. That are the true artist of the entire world. 5 stars...what a honor to hear these men still play these days.

  • The whole world needs some OXYGENE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • At least he knows what he's talking about and he's got something to say, unlike maaaany musicians.

  • My inspiration.

    Hats off to analog !!!

  • thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxx

  • OHH our Jean mimi...He speaks so well english with his french's accent:)))))))))This man seems always young.Oxygen is his best album!!!!

  • science in to the  music - Jarre ...

  • lets make music

  • niiiice he is coming to denmark i can`t wait

    :o)

  • Great stuff.

  • fuckin awesome

  • Awesome! Thanks!
