classic James Dean Bradfield interview from EMG era

[UHT000]

What the german guy's second question?

[AndPlus]

Haha

[MattieBax]

He was drinking quite heavily at the time so he's either probably had a rough night or a rough morning...

[theoneeyedbear]

Yeah shut up Davena. You racist cunt!!

[vikingmog]

just getting to the point when it's needed.

[DarylJCheetham]

typical MTV idiots. James was epic though

[birdy47]

Oh man she is so shit at this. The guy did it perfectly, and when she came on she screwed up every time

[necklacing]

What a cokefest

[TorysApollo]

Also was James *joking* when he called her racist?

But serriously anything that bint says is offensive, she's so annoying!

[TorysApollo]

The interviewer sounds like he's a kid being forced to read out in class, but I do like the way he says "and really rather devilish"

James looks as if he's losing the will!

N'aww

[OToMb]

ha Davina the Racist, but he's right

[owletc]

I don't know about being coked out, but JDB looks like he's genuinely and involuntarily cringing at the first interviewer...

[simonpenum]

My adolescence incarnate- sadly blighted with that vile logo in the corner of my TV screen

[13710MJ]

I love all these crazy out of place Manics interviews on YouTube.

[MCILROK11]

james is goin off his head! he was really off edge seeing how this was '96ish .. he misses richey probably

also,davina got owned!

[msgr33nday]

"everything must go is a wonderful work of art - yaaay!" JDB: (i know, i know...whatever....) xD

[peterpage244]

How did someone with so little talent get so far (Dvina is shit)

[Supaduck0]

its funny when she says "james doesn't like me anymore" then looks at him, probably hoping he'll reassure her he does like her, and all he does is laugh

[richeymanics]

James looks so uncomfortable, totally out of his comfort zone, in the belly of the beast and its horrible!! pop culture is dire!

[jkthemod]

I would assume that if you have an intellect like JDB... that events like this would be the epitome of BORING... a "required" visit for promotional reasons. Clearly he DOES have better things to do- but that's one reason to love them so much- they have always worn their hearts on their sleeves.

[TheIkaraCult]

i never realised i hated Davina from her inception

[sleepflower84]

Oh my, that was sooo awkward! And James clearly doesn't want to be there, he seem at times completely bored and annoyed. But gosh, he was cute! And original; you don't see people behaving like this in interviews very often ;D

[kitto42]

james is pissed!! :)

[musicsnobtobe]

Didn't anyone else find the German bloke (second one on the phonelines) a bit of a twat? A funny one, but a twat nonetheless. I live in a small village far away from any city but I don't whinge about it.

[jimmykboy]

what was the name of this show?

[Manics1989]

RACIST!

[huthut91]

That's Mr. Bradfield!

[nickftm]

Yes! somebody who finally has told Davina to shut up.

[tommykopite]

Funny when James calls that neckie twat a racist lol

[eamonharvey]

James was funny! Used to wonder why Richie and Nicky did all the interviews! I think id be the same in his position! He is a star, and he just looks fidgety as he is bored! Like waiting in a long queue!

[braddersthemod]

haha what a trollope

[romikthegreat]

I really don't understand why people "thumbed" me down, he definitely has a form anxiety disorder.

[KanesMethadonePretty]

"Shut up, I'm answering my question"

x] owned

[diehardjoe2]

I hate all these shite 90's music journalists. They were some of the most irritating/feckless bunch of bastards around at the time.

[TheMilanista89]

Davina McCall - you bloody twat!

[coldoptfc27]

Davina McCall is a stupid bitch.

[rm009z0858]

Bradfield has intellect. McCall has Fuckall.

[RandyPrincePhilip]

bradders has completely hairless legs

[attentionaddicts]

wow, brillaint! he's sooo nervous..

[romikthegreat]

i think he may be on speed or whatnot.

still amazing!

[rm009z0858]

He has stated he has never taken drugs because he is scared of his "heart packing up or my brain turning to mush" However a lot of his influences were full of drugs.

[romikthegreat]

I know that but I've read somewhere that Manics took speed sometimes before gigs.

Anyway, looking at this video, I think James may have Anxiety Disorder

[cdchantler]

i think having that twat interviewing me would prob make me fidget a bit. I think he either wanted to jump out of a window, or twat her in the face. Or both

[mychematthedisco]

Poor james lol. Urgh, davina has ALWAYS been a bad tv presenter. she cant put guests at ease, she always makes them more uptight, you can still see it today on big brother and similar atrocities...

[darlingcitrus]

"shut up and answer my question" 3:04

hahahhaha

[redrabbit84]

the best! xD

[cdchantler]

"say fish and chips in welsh"

says it all really...

[bstrdmissed]

Just goes to show what a fucking hopeless presenter Davina McCall is!

I bet James wanted to leave in the first minute,truly cringeworthy.

[ASININIUS55]

haha hilarious James is really intrested

[mydoghassplitendsinh]

James is so hot and cool, Davina is a cunt

[dickdixon]

lmao @ James' total disinterest between 1:48 and 2:00! :)

[petemusic23]

LOL thats quality... mega awkward!

[perpitbla5]

Deary me...

[lashtastic]

Poor James...he literally couldnt give less of a shit about being there, lol, and he has to put up with Davina McCall

[tigergirluk]

Oh sweet Jesus, some TV was so bad back then! I am empathising with James' visible squirming as i watch this....and yes he is admirably cute in this 'interview/torture' thing! I'd ask him some godamn interesting questions hey hey!

[heyaevery1x]

Hes so lovely! :D James is a genious! the manics are alot better and have acheved more than oasis!

This is just so sweet :D this is very strange :S

[icecreamscuseme]

Hear hear at AwesomeNoise.

[AwesomeNoise]

Yeah, hear hear at me. Ain't I bloody astounding? :)))

I know it was too much for youtube but I tend to be scholastic when I'm pissed. Usually I'm just all surface, no feeling. :D

[manicloz]

That comment was aimed at 21mooncrystal btw

[21mooncrystal]

Are you seriously comparing these geniuses to this bloke? Totally missing my point of modern day media hungry idiots.

[manicloz]

The guy is a musical genius.

And I think that's a bit harsh...I'm sure Davina McCall isn't the easiest person to put up with

[21mooncrystal]

Love the manics but I think he was a bit of a wanker here - I think he's grown up since :-)

It's TV and media honey - without it you'd be nothing! think about it.

[AwesomeNoise]

"It's TV and media honey - without it you'd be nothing" - you've got to be joking! So, according to you, Palestrina, Shakespeare, Machiavelli, Michelangelo or Da Vinci were nothing before TV and media were invented. Think about it.

PS: All of the above lived and created before Gutenberg.

[manicmacintosh]

Honey? You're a cunt.

[BettieRazorblade]

Lol 3:39, bless.

[heyaevery1x]

ha ha! 2.48-3.08 :P he is a legend! :D

[kirsikkasuu]

i think he's pissed!

[abbyaddictionx]

Aah christ.. XD

The question about escaping aswell.. What is this? 1996? Ouch..

Racist. :P

Love him.

[heyaevery1x]

ha! this is the best ever!! where did u get this and wheres the rest?? hes cute!! :D ..

[Clemen79]

"4:10-4:15" I was laughing!!!!

[nigeyboy101]

he's a legend....the manics rock

[redrabbit84]

he's gorgeous! :P

[FlowerPotKey]

haha, he is so bored x)

[NewArtRiot18]

The looks he's giving her are priceless - and when he told her to shut up! Ha!

Bow down to the man, JDB is a legend!

[sophiemurray92]

didnt davina start her tv career on mtv

[TheKarmaPoliceman]

Fucking mtv XD

Good on James

He's the man :)

[21mooncrystal]

Without MTV he'd be sod all nowhere! People like him hate the media - yet without the media - who the fuck are they?...

[0008dz]

Shut the fuck up

[manicloz]

Wrong.

[chichappens]

this is the funniest i've ever seen someone behave during an interview...

[04gtaylor]

Is that Davina McCall interviewing James?

I loved it when he told her to shut up! Ha!

Good on him!

James is a legend

[raycharlesfan]

Aww he's so cute. ;)
