Met Nicky and James in the 90s, nice down to earth chaps the Manics. If I was choosing then Motorcycle Emptiness would be up there.
"- Is James the boss?
- Sometimes. I like to make him think he's the boss."
Hilarious!
Nicky is such a sweet and intelligent person, absolutely love the video and his choice of the songs (and it's so nice to see him without the glasses as well).
Really looking forward to the new manics' album!
What a brilliant interviewer this kid is
yes. who is he? mr.wire enjoyed speaking to him
@@hyllaf yep. Completely agree. And the woman who interviewed Paul Weller was just as good. Used both leading & open Qs in the right ratio. Both clearly did their research re Weller & Wire, their preferred artists and songs, but didn’t flag-wave it - just used the knowledge it to engage and nudge the interview fwd without ever taking over. Great to see/hear this approach rather than the YT vox-pops where the interviewers think they’re the centre of attention…
@@Shelsight aaaaaannnndddd manics are #1! :)
Nicky Wire I LOVE YOU
Mcalmont n Butler. U r spot on Mr Nicholas Jones. YES!
The image of " The Setting Sons " Was completely incongruous with " Going Underground " !! As the single " Wasn't " On that album originally!! But that aside good choices From Nicky Wire and an enjoyable interview!!! From Adrian Browne 1965
Thanks 4 Reply 2 my post !! From Adrian Browne 1965
Thanks 4 your feedback re my post ! Take care From Adrian Browne 1965
Thanks 4 Your response re my post !! From Adrian Browne 1965
60s: She Came In Through The Bathroom Window (The Beatles)
70s: Bodies (The Sex Pistols)
80s: The Unforgettable Fire (U2)
90s: Columbia (Oasis)
00s: LSF (Kasabian)
10s: Saturday (Sam Fender)
20s: In My Sleep (Inhaler)
Would be my picks
Solid list! Here’s mine:
60s: anything from abbey road side 2
70s: Heroes or Drive in Saturday
80s: How Soon Is Now
90s: Disco 2000 or Everything Must Go
00s: Barely Legal or Rehab
10s: RU Mine
20s: My Honest Face
Going Underground wasn’t actually on the Setting Sons album. In fact it wasn’t on any album.
Not originally but it was added to the album when it was re-released.
@@absoluteradio er... no it wasn't.. it was available on an extra disc with the deluxe edition but not to the actual album.
@@absoluteradio No it wasn’t !!!
Who cares what album it is, my pedantic friend?
@@tonymccann7445 Sure, just post any misinformation you want!
As soon as he said it was a collaboration in the 90s I knew it was going to be McAlmont and Butler. What do I win?
A copy of Sonic 1 for the Master System.
Same, that song popped into my head yesterday too 🤔 haven’t heard it in years…away to listen to it now 🙂👍
And makes sense because that song was so clearly a huge influence on the sound of Everything Must Go!
It's 'braying sheep on my TV screen'
Up the bracket
Never heard anything By Lana Del Rey but can't argue with the rest of the choices
How Paul Weller wrote the lyrics and songs he did at the age he was with The Jam was pure genious. I don't think the Jam had any bad lyrics but an example of greatness is Private Hell, how someone aged 22 could write that is amazing. Not my favourite Jam song musically but the lyrics are brilliant. Good choices here Nicky.
the libertines!! my favourite all time band
Apart from the fact Nicky looks like he's 30, I can't believe the Manics have been going for 37 years now !
Wow… difficult…. First songs that come to mind that I like today:
60s Stand be Me
70s Sweet Virgina
80s Dancing in the Dark
90s This is Music
00s Time for Heroes
10s How much a Dollar Costs?
20s Ode to the Mets
Would change tomorrow I’m sure
Dressing like Wayne coyne and David Essex must be in in vogue
7:00 - libertines talk
Is it very sunny in that studio?
Another Spurs guy? Heck yeah.
what the song in the background when chatting about simon and garfunkel, generic or a real tune ?
not a real song. just a tune that randomly generates whenever he speaks about simon and garfunkel. think it's called "water under the bridge" or something
By,2025 the manic street preachers will be going for 40 years ❤😊😁🎤🎸🎸😃😃😁😃🎤👍🎤🎤🎤
Have you heard Love in the afternoon by Human Approach ? It’s on UA-cam .
Is that a 'Syrup' 😯
More please
@@eightiesmusic1984 paul weller 🔥⚡
No Billy Bragg for the 80’s Nicky?
2010's: FFS Collaborations Don't Work
2000's: The Killers Read My Mind
1990's: Manic Street Preachers Nostalgic Pushead
1980's: Ultravox We Stand Alone
1970's: Queen The March Of the Black Queen
1960's: A Beatle Song (Hey Jude?)
Great choices
Going Underground I bought as a kid and played, and played, and played, and the dreams of children!
Flying Sheeps? WTF 😡
Chump.
If you tolerate this your children will be next.....
Stopped watching at 10.46. Save the children I say.
Will be next will be next will be next!
Woulda been beautiful had Weller called in to put that misinformation right
Picking your own song?
Don’t get me wrong, I could name a few manic’s songs worthy of getting close to this list, but that’s not one!
It’s like the MSP’s 89th best tune 🤔
Valentine’s Day is indeed over.
Manics. No apostrophe... 🙄
Pete Doherty sounds like he is being sick down the toilet when he sings
Nah man he's great man true poet
Why is he wearing sunglasses indoors, thinks he’s a rock star lol
Pure shite choices for the 70's and nineties
Mott the Hoople shite choice???😂
70's The great gig in the sky
90's You do something to me ,,,Paul Weller since he likes The Jam , Style Council for me is way better than The Jam
Apart from The Libertines, superb picks!
Awww I love The Libertines...
