  • For the record I am not the BBC nor did I conduct the interview or operate the slide show. I did, however, record edit and upload it to share with fellow Waterboys followers.

    As no one has said so previously, thanks RedSquirrelCrossing for taking the time to share this with us.

  • the worst interview I've ever heard,,,,,,no research,,,,,daft questions and to add insult to injury she call him Scott at the end,,,,,,,MIKE SCOTT,,,,,HIS NAME IS MIKE. HONEST TO GOD!!!!!

  • @wendalrheinhart I don't think it was personal, all their interviews are this bad if not worse. As for the other pair - Bill and Sian........

  • Why the picture of Roger Daltrey at 2:37, Beeb?

  • @UliJones The photo slide operative perhaps missed the 4 hour BBC meeting the day before when the slides were approved - lol

  • Interviewers = twats

  • @RedSquirrelCrossing Many Thanks. Not sure what people were expecting from vapid morning show presenters but they should all be thankful that this kind of music can get a hearing in the UK at all. Us Americans have to spend thousands of dollars to get over there and see Mike play.

  • at least the girl tries to understand where Mike is coming from ,, the male interviewer is not fit to polish the shoes mike is wearing..

  • @wendalrheinhart "Thank you Mike Scott, thank you very much indeed" is what I heard at the end.

  • @TheRooneyTune there is a lot of stupid comments on utube, but thats up near the top

  • @wendalrheinhart SHE ACTUALLY DIDN'T CALL HIM sCOTT...SHE ACTUALLY SAID "MIKE SCOTT THANKYOU VERY MUCH INDEED"

  • Great in-depth interview. Not. But what can you expect on Breakfast TV?

  • is mike suffering writers block that he needs to use another poets words to resurect his career ?

  • It's an amazing album . I think it's prob his best work to date.

  • Mike what are you doing...even talking to these monkeys is not you...you even dressed up for them and they had the offence to slag off your shoes....jesus Mike..have you lost your soul?
