Mazzy Star TV INTERVIEW, UK, ITV, The Big E 1993-94 (VIDEO)

- TV Interview segments with Hope Sandoval and David Roback, plus part of a TV ad for the album So Tonight That I Might See.
The Big E was a late night British TV show on ITV Network.
My source for this video was another youtuber's channel called "Doing It For The Vids." Their original upload is here: • Mazzy Star (The Big E)
As the original yt uploader says, following the interview, there is, QUOTE: "also an advert for So Tonight That I Might See, which I expect was shown during the breaks in the same program, since they were next to each other on my old VHS tape."
The original uploader gives no date for the broadcast. My guess is it's likely from 1994 because the TV ad for the album So Tonight That I Might See says "The Album, OUT NOW, Includes 'Fade Into You'." The album was released in 1993, but 'Fade...' became an unexpected hit in 1994. I believe Capitol Records would have been using the belated hit "Fade..." to promote the album in ads in 1994, as we see here. Also, Mazzy Star's tour of Europe in 1994 was in June and July, and they did some dates in England both those months. So this British TV interview likely occurred June or July, 1994.
A helpful Facebook group member alerted me to the video's existence.
The original upload at "Doing It For The Vids" yt channel is longer because it intersperses clips from the official colour music video for the song Fade Into You, as did the original TV broadcast.
Unfortunately, yt won't allow my own upload to contain content from that same "Fade..." video. Yt blocked worldwide my first upload attempt because of a copyright claim forbidding my upload to contain that content. So, I've made an edited version that includes all the interview portions but removes the music video scenes.
The TV ad for the album after the interview also contained clips from that "Fade..." music video. I removed those scenes too and retained just the shot at end of the ad that mentions the album. I also cropped the video to remove visible VHS tape tracking error images that appear at the bottom and top of the original video's frame.
I've re-upped the interview to my own yt channel because fans are not finding it at its original channel. As of today it's been there 6 months and has received only 61 views total. To ensure more fans will find it, here's a re-upload. Be sure to check out the original upload too with the "Fade.." music video scenes intact.
I also made my own second edit, one that includes all the "Fade..." music video scenes. I cropped the video to remove VHS tape tracking error images that appear along the bottom and top of the original video's frame. In the original, after the interview segments end and before the TV ad for the album starts, there are a few seconds of unrelated video I removed. Yt and FB won't let me upload my complete version. But it's been upped to Google Drive where anyone interested can DL it, here: drive.google.com/file/d/1HsBI...

[Transcript from video recording of interview]:
HOPE: I think it, it is pretty difficult for us to do promotional stuff. We're sort of introverted people, so, it is pretty difficult.
HOPE: We like to experiment a lot, so-. I think if you gave us three years to record a record, to write, record it, produce it, we would take the three years. That's what I think.
DAVID: Yeah, but we would, we would probably end up recording several records in that time, and just selecting, you know. See like any-
HOPE: Changing our minds constantly [chuckles]
DAVID: Yeah, we did, we do a song, you know. Given a different day, you know, we'd probably do it differently. I think anybody would, anybody really would
HOPE: I like to sing. It can be a problem 'cause when you're, it, it automatically makes you the, the front person for the band, even though you might not want that. Even though your, your partner's just as responsible for everything. But, you know, everybody seems to focus on the singer.
HOPE: We've had bad reviews too, um. I mean, of course, you know, when anybody gets insulted
in any kind of way, you know, it affects you, so, in that sense, yeah, you know, it does affect us, but-
DAVID: I don't think we take it too seriously
HOPE: Yeah
DAVID: You know, because that's not really who we, you know, we're not making music for the critics. And, um, it's not very, really ultimately very important to us whether they like it or not. I mean-
"We're sort of introverted ... ... ... people." Understatement of the century. Having said that, Hope works hard to deal with her introversion and still perform on stage. What a truly great work ethic. Thank you Hope and David.
Just now found out David passed away.They made beautiful music together.It will surely live on.
What do you mean with understatement of the century?
@@sr.rodriguez4816 I mean, considering their work is in front of the public, they are very introverted people. Awesome music.
We live in a world where extroversion is often promoted as the ideal. This video makes a stunning rebuttal.
I absolutely agree!!
Correct!
introverts have more depth.
@@xymoxkat exactly
The ideal is always somewhere in the middle
She has such a gentle sweet voice and she’s so shy and can barely look at the camera she’s adorable lol
she senses that somebody is stalking her , it is painful to see , if you notice they are being interviewed in a coffee shop with no camera , the camera is hide in the outside , it is really disgusting to know that you accept an interview with no cameras and they come with this shit .
Omg I didn’t realize that that’s so creepy
@@carsonjones6479 A grown ass man using the word creepy like a teenage girl is bizarre
@@StMichael7what are you yapping about
@@SuperFoxGamingx English must not be your first language
There's something very special about when introverted people talk. You want to listen to word they say because you know it will be deep and of value.
no , it is you who thinks in that way , introverted people is the same as you only they like silence and not being the center of attention but they can be so selfish and superficial as anybody , it is a false assumption , to thinks that one person's opinions are more valuable for being introvert
i always suffer that stigma , i never liked to talk and people always tended to think that I was smarter than I really am , the truth is really sad to see how people reacts to this , it cause me a lot of problems without even open my mouth , to the point that you choose to avoid interact with people , just your closest and that's it .
Sometimes seeing artists in interviews can jar your perception of the music when it doesn't match, but after watching this interview, Mazzy Star seems even more Mazzy Star to me.
You said it, man!
Hope
Hope is precious. An introverted, angelic beauty 💜💜💜
I love how vulnerable she is, makes her music seem more real, and Dave's guitar chugging away is the perfect accompaniment 🎶🖤
All the years the band was on the charts.... We never got to know much about her . Really really added a mystery to the music... Her eyes are so beautiful
they are so genuine and just speaking their minds, it is so lovely to see real people giving their real thoughts
I love her timid beauty ❤
silent people are not timid.
They don’t have many interviews so thank you for sharing this with us
I saw them as a student in London Islington Chapel in 1996. The biggest crush of my youth was on Hope Sandoval - peaking that very evening as she stood there, very still on the stage, bathed in a spotlight, singing with her head slightly bowed. An ethereal creature. Years later I saw her again with the Warm Inventions. Ever so slightly less ethereal to my more mature self, but still exquisitely beautiful and still playing wonderful music.
Hermesacat delivers again. And again and again and again. This is so incredibly rare. Man, I wish so badly that Dave was still with us.
I have others to thank for 1) Uploading their own 1994 VHS recording to yt; 2) The FB Group member who found it on yt and told me about it. But I'm pleased I'm able to share it further!
Thank you Hermescat! Love your uploads and feed. Great stuff!
The thought that this group had a major deal just amazes me! The 90s alternative had its moment in time and I’m glad younger generations keep on listening to them!
I don't know where you get these from but it's a delight to see them interviewed
On camera...thanks.
They epitomize how it was to live in the Southwest at the time, Arizona/California. A very dreamy period of life with long summers. I remember it all. ❤❤❤
Oh yes! Being fron Phoenix, I remember it well ❤
That sounds wonderful. Can you say more about how it has changed since then? I've never been to the US but sometimes I'd like to visit.
What a darling. Humanity must support her, and people like her, or else we are less human.
They don’t really, unfortunately
She is such an infp
They are the true and tortured artist that everyone can and cannot not understand. ❤❤❤
rip to one of the legends
My goddess and... a legend named David!!!
angelic
heavenly voice
Hope Sandoval is such a treasure. Truly a universal heritage of humanity.
This confirms for me that Hope Sandoval is in fact an Angel. We miss you Hope ❤.
Wow I’ve never seen this before. Thank you!
Hope is just so damn cute. Damn i love her
I admire hope so much,and relate to her so massively as a very quiet girl myself. So so special ❤
Wow, this is absolutely amazing, what a fantastic found!!! thank you!
Cool I’ve never seen this interview. Must be rare
Breath taking....
What a humble person.......nothing but love for Hope n David
Whether you spend a weekend, a week, a month, years, or a lifetime with her, Hope Sandoval is the kind of woman you immediately fall in love with. I couldn't imagine growing tired of her or being unkind to her in any way. It just seems easy to gently fall in love her.
sweet speaking voice
beautifully shot gem through the looking glass, capturing hopes elegant gestures and daves cool
I am so in love with this girl
great interview. thanks for this!!
Her sheer talking can make me emotional and cry, she is so special and precious 💕
Thanks for this keep em coming!
The black and white film just adds to the mystery of Mazzy Star.....RIP DR🙏🕊🌌 .Luv-ya HS 💋🧚♀️🌈.
thank you!!
I love how, unlike many other girl artists. Her break up songs are very pure and kind
yay! thanks for the new interview! big fan of your account! hope and dave are the coolest
Wow epic thank you for this fantastic video
You are F'n awesome bro, thanks for this
Thank you, Hermesacat!
Great jawlines and cheekbones on these two
They are exactly as they seem from their music. He said it best because if they had made the music just worrying about how it would be received, it would never have been so compelling.
I wish I can't find at least 1 hour version of this interview without music behind. Would be so ASMRy🤗
Angel. Love her.
The loudest people you will always see. The deepest you will never see.
Gold!
I absolutely love you Hope
“It does affect us.”
“Nah, we don’t let it bother us!”
I would have liked to have seen more well lit videos of Mazzy Star cause I loved their music. Since I am a introvert I understand the difficulty they must have went thru.
she's adorable
all the people would be hope sandoval. I love your style low profile

that black and white looked hard
It's for the heads that get it
subtly filmed from outside the window
Now I see why they called it Paisley Underground, RIP David
Does this energy even exist anymore?
Oh my God how did you find this
Check "show more" under the video to read all about it!
Alguém poderia traduzir por favorrrr? (Brasil)
she looks like a classic movie star a similar delicate beauty as Ingrid Bergman / Isabella Rossellini / Nastasja Kinski
She's a cross between Audrey Hepburn and Sophia Loren.
Were sort of....CUTE!
RIP
More like Anti social.
Fake acting.
hey ink, i just posted something just now. you are right, the whole thing is staged. i believe they have taken it to a parody of shyness and self doubt. it seems a little disrespectful to people with real issues. but it is show business and it sells. capitalism trumps all. thank you for realizing what a sham she is.
god, what a poser. i like her and the music, but what an act. but it works. the whole shoe gazer persona is for the media and fans. she is on stage with thousands and she can barely mutter a few words for an interview.
She also insisted on playing on darkened stages in the 1990s when ever possible, so she could barely be seen, and still does that today, She says playing live has always been difficult for her, and stiill says that in interviews. She said interviews and shooting music videos were both difficult for her. She came out of her shell for interviews in more recent years though. Check out my yt upload of a 2018 Australian radio iinterview. She's very forthcoming, in it and laughs often.
