- Dennis Hunt Interviews Grammy Award winning Feminist Icon Helen Reddy in 1983. Best known as a recording artist, Helen Reddy had more than a dozen Top 40 hits in the United States. She was the first Australian to win a Grammy Award and to have three #1 hits in the same year. In television, Helen was the first Australian to host her own one-hour weekly primetime variety show on an American network, along with several specials that were seen in over forty countries.
I just think Helen Reddy was an awesome singer, as a young girl hearing "I am Woman" just made me smile and cry at the same time. She was amazing! R.I.P. Helen Reddy 🙏
I know most of Helen Reddy's music originated in the 70's but remember hearing her music more in the 80's as a young boy when my Mom would play her records. Now I hear of Ms Reddy's passing and it makes me sad yet, her music brings me back to my innocence. Prayers and condolences to her family. RIP Helen Reddy
I admire Mr. Hunt's interviewing style. He's respectful towards his guest, he's a good listener, he asks intelligent questions, and you can tell he did his homework. And you can tell Helen Reddy appreciates the fact that that he's a real gentleman.
With the exception of the knee jerk "you lady" which is so diminishing.
Really? Maybe at the time but geezuz..
For example the part on womens right to vote...HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS?
Knobjockey .
Rest in Peace Helen ,I wish i knew more about your ..awesomeness and life before today.
Any woman watching has a different view.. Men dismiss so much, he wasn't listening to half of what she said.... typical.
Now this is an intelligent First Class interviewer.
I'm not even sure if I've ever heard of Helen before today, came across news of her passing, and decided to look her up on UA-cam, how beautiful inside and out. Love her voice and her expressions when she sings. RIP beautiful lady.
I am so pleased you did ! I agree about her expressions :-). Such a strong voice :-).
excellent interview very classy and respectful not to mention the iconic helen redddy
Helen was so gracious, apart from obviously her huge talent.
That awesome, unique voice!!
9/29/2020 RIP “She was a wonderful Mother, Grandmother and a truly formidable woman. Our hearts are broken. But we take comfort in the knowledge that her voice will live on forever.”
Soundtrack of early teens.
RIP Helen Reddy...

May She Be Most Happiest In Paradise!
I adored her!! I have so many great memories with her music is woven right into those memories. I treasure them and her. Rest in Peace. You are the epitome of class!
R.I.P Mz Helen Reddy
Hard the new today, . . I'm broken hearted!
Wowww, ... What an enlightening, poignant and wonderful interview!
What a beautiful woman and gorgeous voice, with a strong empowering message!
So glad she made it to the Sands. A great place to make money.
Ms. Reddy a truly special artist who beat the odds with great talent became a major recording artist. RIP lovely “Woman” you earned and deserved it.
An Aussie to be so proud of. No bullshit about this lady.
RIP Helen . You have now entered Rock and Roll Heaven. Enjoy your time there. It will be the best music ever. I can't wait to go. 🌈🦋😇🙏❤🌹 From a Canadian fan 🇨🇦
Always loved her... Rest in Peace, lady.
Helen Reddy is so well poised, sincere, and confident as well as she should be. She does a lot of justice to women and shows how a an interview should be done with honesty and grace. And boy, can she sing....
.
Incredible talent!!! Her total honesty may not have been wholly appreciated at the time of this interview.
Man she was gorgeous!!!
RIP
What a lovely interview! Thank you so much for sharing, she's such a great lady.
She was so beautiful and so talented.
Love her ❤. I'm so glad clips like this are made available to us!
Thank you for your comment. I always felt it was a real honor to have had the privilege to meet and interview her.
+Dennis Hunt It was a very nice interview. Looks like she may have made you feel like it was just the two of you having a casual conversation between friends - good eye contact, great smile. I love it! Meanwhile, look how handsome you are! Thanks for posting, Dennis 😊
She my best friend in my heart helped me through many trauma
Seems like a down to earth person,no big ego,good for her.
What a great interview. Thank you for posting this video & shared with all of us.
It's sad...when nice people ,pass on...we want them to live for ever...or a longer time.
Great interview of a talented singer!

Just watched movie 🍿 “I Am Woman” - I loved it! She’s an incredible inspiration.
A Pure Legend!!
Wow she was great!

RIP Helen Reddy
Helen Reddy, singer behind feminist anthem 'I Am Woman,' dies at 78 . September 29, 2020
Wow I didn't know that about the contest that Helen won. Terrible. Helen was so talented and this was a fascinating interview.
R I P Helen ready love your songs inspired by your songs
What a sweetheart..
Agreed ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 🌹🌹🌹🌹 😭😭😭😭
RIP - 'HELEN REDDY - 3 US No 1 hits in one yearr!!!!!!' The name of my Playlist for you, if you would like to be reminded of Helen's amazing music career. Copy and Paste it into YT search.
An Aussie to be so very proud of. I loved your genuine Aussie authenticity, Helen. Thanks for what you gave the world - especially in your last amazing performance, for the Women's March, after Trump was voted in. What a Blessing for you, and for us - that was.
Actually, it was two #1's. I don't know why they mislead the public stating it was three. "Leave Me Alone (Ruby Red Dress)" only made it to #3 on the Billboard chart.
Love Helen's straight forward honesty in this interview. She confirms what I always thought about how the Midnight Special was filmed. The only exception to this was that she did perform live with Hamilton Joe Frank and Reynolds on the show.
Captain Nice Yes she was not accurate that information. Now James Taylor said he met every act when he did The Midnight Special .
And with the Bee gees singing 'To Love Somebody"
Glad there are woman who support other woman...as man have always stuck together...very refreshing!!
OMG! I looove her! an icon! thank you so much for sharing!!
Marlena Dietrich...wow...quite interesting and a brilliant show business perspective of entertainment from Helen Reddy to take notes.
great woman
I've seen this interview before. It's a favorite of mine, Helen looks so at ease with him. She looks great. Would love to see the captain and tennille interview he mentioned earlier
Beautiful woman , i had a young boy/man crush on her in the 70s, Angie Baby my favourite ❤️
What was so displeasing about this old clip to 5 people that they wanted to show their displeasure by giving it a thumbs down?
Watch it again,, pay attention to the patronage and dismissive attitude of the interviewer. It was like he wasn't even paying attention...
I didn’t know she was an Aussie. She was great.
Class all the way. He seems nice too.
A Pioneer!
All these years I thought I Am Womam is just a song she sang. I didnt know she wrote it and lived her life like that. "Dont tell me what to do"
She wrote the words - sort of. The music was written and arranged by Ray Burton, who also shaped the lyrics from Reddy's notes. And it's the music and the brilliant arrangement that makes the song anthemic and memorable. Interestingly, Reddy never gave Burton credit. And the movie I Am Woman, which is all about the song, never mentions him. It's what feminists would call "erasure".
@@joshdrayton1230 Reddy wrote the lyrics and added that third verse as she discussed in the interview. Secondly, it is those lyrics which render the song empowering. “I am women, hear me roar.” was a ubiquitous rallying cry following the song’s re-release. Some, including misogynists, have the propensity to suppress this. That is what could be called “erasure”.
Good interview
Thank you, Mike. I appreciate your comment.
Looks so much as my wife’s aunt Janie. Yes she was that beautiful.
Your welcome.
Awe tell you something my favourite song by her is erm wdyamacallit
This is interesting..
Hello had started to pick up a very definite American twang. ‘Haf’ instead of ‘harf’.
Thats how i feel about elton john... he lied. We PAID..he performed beautifully...and then had ANOTHER tour...kinda like Rod Stewart...
Name the damn record company
The record company that rejected her was Mercury Records. She went on to record hits records with Capitol and MCA.
Beautiful lady and voice. She had terrible posture.
THIS INTERVIEWER SHOULD TALK TO SINGER SAL RICHARDS WHOS WIFE WAS ASSAULTED BY HELEN IN NEW YORK WHEN HE WAS ASKED TO OPEN FOR HER.ITS A WHOLE NASTY SIDE TO HELEN WHO I LOVED YEARS AGO BUT NOT NOW.
How odd. I saw a video tonight that had an autographed photo of Helen Reddy in the montage. I was very shocked to see the words To Bev FUCK YOU from Helen Reddy ( or something like that!) It struck me as very peculiar- she seems very nice and wholesome.
yeah, he wrote about it in his book...shameful
we all have a dark side so what
i read that story listened to it very carefully the way the information was presented, i dont really believe it.....
One negative story wow I guess that discounts all the talent beauty inspiration this women shared. Wow. Way to judge.
Even her speaking voice is pure and clean. But what an awful interviewer he is.. She deserved so much better.
She and other left wing harridans took great care not to promulgate feminism in African and Middle East Countries.
Would have met with a very hostile and aggressive response, I dare say.
Instead, this ill conceived and misguided concept was visited on white Christian countries ...with disastrous effects.
In the UK, we have sprawling council estates crammed with single mothers dependent on welfare benefits,...self
sustaining family units, a proven success for hundreds of years swept aside by these dangerous and foolish
experimental notions.
Civilised society is all the poorer for it.

On the cover of her Greatest Hits album, she posed braless. Quite brave and not a bad rack....
Could she be any more bored?? LMAO. Love her tho.
michaelj1962 I think ahe liked answering the questions myself.... didn’r seem bored at all.
michaelj1962 SHES NASTY WHEN YOU MEET HER .
PeeCee Yes she wanted to be somewhere else for sure. PeeCee you need glasses
Interesting what we see through our own distorted lenses. The “meaning” we appt to things, creates our own version of reality.
The less connected/awake you are, to yourself, others...and have false narratives running your subconscious...the more likely you are to project some sort of twisted reality.
She’s not bored, but you might be 😁
@@spectrumlocalb191 i recommend existentialism and authenticity, by Jordan Peterson.
You need to wake up.
That, or Eckhart Tolle...but I assume the latter is far too evolved to resonate with your unconscious self, just yet.
She has lost her Australian ,accent,...only hear it a little..
Never took to that fake american accent
What are you talking about good lord....
Eric Clapton should quit giving interviews and putting on that stupid fake American accent and just play guitar
ffs
Good singer but I didn't like her personality or politics
