Mike Patton - MR BUNGLE in Bologna 09/02/2000

[NinaEle5]

Intervistatore: "una domanda semplice semplice, descrivi il suono dei mr Bungle" Semplice?????? ma che ..... ????

Mike Patton: "fiuuuuuu questo è difficilissimo".

[Cassyan]

Damn. I thought Mike couldn't get any cooler than he already is and dang! now he speaks italian! I'm in Italy myself for some 9 months now and I still mumble.

As far as I'm concerned, I've come to the point where Mike could as well fart on the mic and I will still get extatic.

That's why you'll never be as cool as him.

[taddarita75]

Uno dei pochi artisti veri del rock (e non solo) contemporaneo.

[mirjetagjika]

@fra84bs perfect translation ...:)

[PeerGyntTheOnion]

AHAH ha un accento migliore dell'intervistatore!

[nizudotit]

i was there.

[sarduspater01]

[fra84bs]

@sarduspater01 yep!

[zreticoli]

peccato il saluto fascista alla fine.. ma sicuramente era ironico...spero..

[dubbertrouble]

Grandissimo Mike! Your italian is near perfection, I want to speak english as well as you speak italian.

[specialxbitch]

This is such an intelligent man... who can't love him?

[sublimistica]

i'll be in my bunk.

[boygalak]

im a celtic fan but i love mike patton

[onehandlukeband]

THis isn't retrovertigo....

[Poppaea6]

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu sexy!!!

[N1Njaclaws]

molto benne magnifico!

[krikiki0405]

2:01 It's not Retrovertigo it's Air-Conditioned Nightmare!!!!

[Crackerkiller5]

@krikiki0405 that was an epic facepalm moment

[rakasmurras]

Wuow, this man doesn't exist!!

[MultiIlari]

cavolo parla italiano davvero bene.. oltre ad essere un eccezionale artista

[Nordavind1709]

eccezionale Mike

[chiara65chiara65]

e' pure simpatico :)



[powdersnowhead]

Is there anything this annoying bstrd can't do? I feel stupid compared to him and I speak 3 and a half languages myself... ;)

[KillerDrummer88]

Great ;) He's Italian si so funny, what a huge man... anyway why does this vid call this song Retrovertigo, while it's The Air Conditioned Nightmare? :O weird

[reezlaw]

I was there and I'm never gonna forget that night.

[lyceeee]

he's cute when he speaks italian.

[rockforchoicee]

@lyceeee He's always cute =P. Speaking italian just makes him (even) hotter.

[ghostwhiskey]

at the start

[ghostwhiskey]

none of them knew they were robots

[ter50]

Cazzo! Credevo fosse doppiato invece sa parlare bene l'italiano, anche nella pronuncia! Che genio è quest'uomo!

[residualbill]

It has been said already, but the song is "The Air-Conditioned Nightmare".

It's one of my favorites from the album "California".

[goosebasket]

great show!! I was there...

[jarawatube]

his italian it's better than the interviewer!

[IAmKrow]

@jarawatube

That's right. When he says questo è difficilissimo (that's very hard) and sta andando abbastanza bene (it's doing pretty good) he sounds exactly like an Italian.

[fuckabledude]

@jarawatube the interviewer sounds american too

[jarawatube]

@fuckabledude english. i think was clive griffiths

[IAmKrow]

His Italian is incredibly good, I like that

[jameshippiekid]

that isn't retrovertigo!

[camironcha]

"Air conditioned Nightmare"

¬¬

[fra84bs]

He says that it's hard for him to describe mr.bungle's sound, people should buy their records to find out themselves, that they're happy about the new album, that they like playing many covers live, especially movie soundtrack themes, to add some spice to their shows cause after a while their songs become boring to them, that there's a lot to learn cause the more he spends time in music biz the more he realizes he knows nothing about music.

his italian is better than my englis...lol

[fra84bs]

oops....englisH....cheers

[keeelane]

@fra84bs wow, it's been ages i studied italian and i find out i can understand it!

[robbiereindeerlover]

I havent got the slightest clue what he's saying but he sounds lovely anyway! :)

[FetalMetalRicky82]

Mike ti adoro!!!!

[itsbeadyeyes]

ye gods, could he possibly be any cooler? I just wish I knew what they were saying.

[marion1fan]

so cool!

[eamamitipago]

In certi passaggi non si sente neanche l'accento inglese...!

[aaiissa]

si in effetti per essere americano l'accento/cadenza non si sente affatto!eppure loro ce l'hanno molto forte (vedi l'intervistatore!!!)!

[SpaceCadet1]

Subtitles please! :)

[fogliolinasullacqua]

thank u guys ^_^

[DespiteMe]

is this mike patton speaking italian, or did just someone synchronized him?

[francescobiglia]

He speaking in italian..

[DespiteMe]

[fogliolinasullacqua]

where did he learn italian language? he didnn't live there?

[KillerDrummer88]

ha vissuto 7 anni a bologna

[francescobiglia]

si è sposato con una italiana precisamente bolognese..

[anuskaleok]

he was married to an italian woman, they separated in 2001

[Zarcophagus1]

he actually had a house there, so he must of lived there for awhile. read wikipedia :)

[Elisanomorenimoins]

He sings very weel in italian too! In Rock en Seine Last week end He sung Evidence FNM in italian! Great!!! this man is amazing!!!

[olenmiikka]

LOLWAT he sung it in spanish in finland O__O

[Prizak1]

Last thing, Mike says that the longer he stays in the music business, the more he's aware that he still has a lot to learn about music & he doesn't know anything at all, & he still has to experiment a lot...Mike Patton is damn cool, I love Faith no More.

[leezyknoxville]

I think I may be going out on a limb here, but is there anyone on here who speaks Italian who can tell me what they're saying in the interview please?

[HighwayNegative]

Has anyone got a time machine so I can attend this? :(

[rustytheginge]

i believe that is NOT Retrovertigo!!! deary me, tis Air Conditioned Nightmare. Wow, Mike Patton speak Italian is... strange but cool

[zebonaut]

Wow , what a mistake! It is INDEED! And the track in the background is "None of them knew they were robots".

Gosh, i´m so glad i saw this show back then two times in Cologne and Karksruhe..maybe the only show i HAD to see twice during the same tour..apart fromT HE MUSICAL BOX ;))

[peepingjo]

[pachinko32]

[Blancasantino666]

[Wanderlustus]

Cat has the gift of gab . . . in several languages.

[livianesa]

Beautiful, nice, sexy ... until men admit: he's talking Italian hot. He is hot in any circumstance. Yummy !!!

[gotcha1980]

Oh god is italian is perfect, like he was italian for real! Incredible

semplicemente un mito!!!!!!

[malenaxpl]

not retrovertigo ... air condition nightmare

[juaneco1980]

[zreticoli]

mike parla un italiano qualsi perfetto!

ha inparato o e' mezzo italiano?

[kaliVAFFANDAY]

mike vive anche a bologna...è sposato con un'italiana

[gspahr]

È ormai da un bel pezzo che si è divorziato. Resta da dire che il suo italiano è ottimo, l'interviewer parla peggio di lui.

[15Surprise]

E'italiano..

[leezyknoxville]

He sounds hot as when he speaks Italian :)

[RothMan18]

Oh yea.....

[Andre2010]

never knew patton knew italian wow

[RubyTwilite]

Didn't he live in Italy during his marriage? That aside, it makes sense that a person with genius level music and voice skills would also be able to learn languages really quickly.

[Diogenesrules]

That's true. His ability in all that is amazing. Italian with almost no accent, that's pretty good! I wonder how many other languages he may speak? I heard him sing in french and germa... ??

[Fossick]

because you're not a hardcore patton fan.

[Walexo45]

Lol they're playing The Air-conditioned Nightmare, and the Italian TV Wrote the title ''Retrovertigo''.

[LittleRedMenace]

OH - and I'm going to Italy in September, so I might have to stop by Bologna just to check it out. I hear he used to own a house there?

[WarnerAge]

Dannazione. Quest'uomo è un genio.

[ChucknMcNuggets]

It is rumored that Patton speaks fluent Italian, Spanish, German, Russian, Portugese, and Jive.

[Fossick]

and Mayan...lol :P

I keed

[MastaBlasta2008]

Wow. This is weird. Cool but weird.

[shuckslbj]

I'm a very straight man, but I have to admit it's pretty hot when Patton speaks Italian.

[LittleRedMenace]

I second that.....coming from a straight girl! ;-)

[halusky]

Same, coming from a straight man as well...for any native speakers out there, how's his accent?

[reezlaw]

Very good. My boss is Irish, he's been living here for the last 27 years and still no match! Mike really tries to sound like a real Italian, and to a certain degree, he succeeds.

[nuclearlost]

ke mito!!!

[pattonisgod26]

Geez..Already 8 years ago..Where does the time go? I miss Bungle, too:( xxx

[balimoon06]

Of course he speaks Italian. He wrote "Squeeze Me Macaroni"

And he married an Italian stripper...

[Diogenesrules]

A stripper? NO! I heard on several occasions that she was an artist, though I don't know what kind of artist. He said in an interview that he's been married to an italian for 15 years... so I don't know wheter he's still married to her or not. I heard he's divorced now and that he used to be still begging her...

[MsMalpractice]

hum, where did you hear that rumour? I'm Just being worldwide curious :-)

[kurtisblow3000]

it just sounds like it.

[MsMalpractice]

ok. according to wikipedia he's divorced but is also hinting that they're still together. I read somewhere that she's credited as "Lady T" on several on his later records. The latest I've seen is on "peeping tom" from 2006. well. who knows... :-D

[SophieCalifornia]

He's divorced. There's a video of him onstage with Faith No More at a festival speaking to the audience about what they've done in the 12 years during FNM split, before a performance of "Caffeine" and he asks the audience, "Is anyone divorced?" and he puts his hand up.

[anrreagp]

carep...tras de que es cool, habla italiano..jueputo!!!!!

fuckkk, he so cool tht ever speaks italian....ooh envy!

[KineticFrenetic]

Eh, Spanish and Italian differences are only superficial. If you know one, it's easier to study/understand the other. Oh, and Patton rules.

[kurtisblow3000]

i wish bungle was still together.

[mryellow123]

Trey and Mike aren't talking anymore are they? I've heard something happened between them but never the details......

Secret Chiefs 3 are still doing things :-D

[dargis49]

I didn't know he spoke fluent Italian. Mike Patton is the shit.

[rokktaropunk]

cazzo, ma se siamo in italia e lui sa l'italiano, perchè dovrebbe parlare in inglese!

this video was of the italian television, mike patton know the italian, why he wish don't to talk in?

[colonelschvatz]

It says they're performing Retrovertigo, but isn't that Air-Conditioned Nightmare?

[colonelschvatz]

I just realized there are like three other posts that have noted this.

[MattiaGagliardi]

Ma parla in un italiano perfetto! Pazzesco!

[NightIsAlive]

Hahah, Retrovertigo?

Try Air-Conditioned Nightmare.

[arstyfairie08]

Whenever I see this video, I swear his eyes look so freaky like in the first 7 seconds.. just plain creepy..lol..

[inhha]

retrovertigo? :D

[XboxLive13]

i hate it when they put a wrong name on there...

[robbby11]

english please che roba?? Cosa vuoi, uno che doppia Mike Patton in inglese? E' un intervista in Italia, lui parla in italiano e... STOP! Ops, ho scritto in italiano :-P

[gorf1812]

english please!!

[amindbody]

What kind of hair product does he use to get his hair slicked back like that without moving?

Patton is the man.

[evilempire96]

Well Patton has got very straight hair which is very fine, so it's easy to slick it back. I reckon he just wets his hair and puts some sort of wax/gel product to hold it and some kind of oil to keep the wet look. That's my guess haha.
