This man is more beautiful than you can ever realise.
He's so right. I've loved his music and song writing from the start, but now I'm into my 50's, so much of the soundtrack to my life touches me on a much deeper level and I've found myself increasingly shedding a tear as I truly feel the emotion and the meaning in my favourite songs. Thank you Richard and all the great musicians for giving me those gifts.
Mate, I was just saying this to my wife. Like you I’m in my 50’s and I can’t listen to any track of Urban Hymns without getting emotional. Not that my youth was traumatic, it’s just us as a generation.
Seen him in Malahide castle 2018 he was unbelievable, that voice was quality, he was supporting Liam Gallagher and the minute he came on stage he lit my world. He was the only 1 I hadn't heard from that special decade I grew up listening too, being an oasis fan all my life it completed me. Truly Truly a special talent and preformer, so thank you RICHARD ASHCROFT
Im also a huge oasis fan and i agree that the verve completes oasis. Oasis and the verve are my favorite bands, period. Even a band like coldplay with such talented musicians dont have a sound like Lucky Man or bittersweet symphony.
@@ducoh2093 same here plus i would agree with noel gallagher and include the brilliant songwriter morrissey....female would be beth hart..worth checking out
If you think that was good you should have seen the verve. On another level when they all played together.
Urban Hymns is a masterpiece!
I listened to that album so many times and smoked copious amounts of weed to it (not that it needs anything to enjoy it).
I would give my left teste to be back in my mams garden in my teens with that album cranked up just chilling with my mates... good times.
absolute oracle. Thank you Richard for everything, all the memories, the tunes and the soundtrack to our lives
Sonnet touches my heart every time. I hear it and afterward, it's in my head for weeks. My friend and me looking through her red box of memories, faded I'm sure but love seems to stick in her veins you know...I love that song so much! Thank You Richard we are feeling it! Sonnet is one of my very favorite songs and that says a lot because I love music.
The man with a God given talent
for verse & melody. My favourite
Verve album has always been
"A Northern Soul".
Love that the Stones recognised the brilliance of Ashcroft and signed it over
Bittersweet. Better late than never.
‘‘twas never their decision, it was their old managers that also screwed then over as well hahaha.
Wasn’t it their brilliance they he recognised and used on his track ? lol
@@benfrost124 yes, but andrew oldham owned all the rights from the years 1963-1971 so it was never their choice to give them the rights in the first place sadly lol
@@iheartcicada
It wasn’t Oldham who tried to sue, it was Klein ! I think …..
No need for a click bait title for an interview with Richard Ashcroft. Proper legend!
Omg, I love Richard Ashcroft even more now if that's even possible. Very nice to hear him as an older man say that he is blessed because of having his children and his wife, and the fact that he can still talk about his passion for music after all these years. Terrific interview!
Best song ever written by the best singer of all time. Glad it’s back in the right hands 🙌🏼
Words CAN.NOT .describe how much I love this man! Happy to have been here since day 1.
Great man and exceptional songwriter. He really truly gets the power and meaning behind music.
Richard Ashcroft is my favorite solo artist of all time.
Hope he comes back to America soon.
I love and respect R A as the best artist there has ever been. I really do mean that. Someone who can reach and connect with you the way he does is a miracle.
ever !!! ffs
Brilliant songwriter and performer - looking forward to seeing him next time he plays Scotland 👍
Self taught Gem of a Man.
He is such a great musician writer singer has such a heart its unreal. He really does touch my heart and my husband loves him too. He is awesome. God bless him and all his family with peace and love and protection always.
Best Voice of all time!
The Verve's "Urban Hymns" (1997) and "Forth" (2008) are my favorite albums. However, when it comes to Richard Ashcroft's solo material, I absolutely love ALL of his albums. From "Alone with Everybody" (2000) to "Natural Rebel" (2018). I'm always waiting for his next masterpiece. So fucking excited for the release of his new album "Acoustic Hymns, Vol. 1" (2021). If the first volume is as phenomenal, then imagine just how smashing volume two can be. Music is Power! Thanks Maestro Ashcroft!
"A Northern Soul" (1995) is also a masterpiece
@@gastonmartinez6033 Not to mention A Storm In Heaven...
"I can't change my mode" would seem to have been one of Richard's most sincere lyrics. The Verve were the band of my formative high school years in the mid to late 90s, and for better or worse, it doesn't seem like Richard has changed since then, in terms of his outlook and horizons. It seems like most of his answers have been practised over and over in his inner monologue (dialogue?!).
Urban Hymns was the first Album I bought. The Verve was the first band to really grab my attention & my introduction into music. When we all grow old, sitting in our favourite arm chair, pipe, slippers and all that…
It’s US & our generation who’ll look back nostalgically reminiscing about proper music, “When I was a kid ..😂”
Just like my parents with The Stones & The Beatles in the 60’s
We had The Verve & Oasis in the 90’s… and I’m absolutely fine with that.
The new version is even better! Can you believe that he can make his own perfect songs more perfect....like what? Crazy. It does so many things this song, yiu can like reconnect with it even though yiu haven't disconnected from it? It's total madness. You can connect with it on another level but in a different way, it's crazy.
Coming full circle 💜💜💜 love & peace
I'm so glad he got Bittersweet Symphony back! He says the new version is very Stoney!lol
Nice to cu Chris. Loved you on radio one. Was the best.
Space and Time is my # 1 on Urban Hymns
It’s a beautiful song in every way
One of the greatest! Absolutely the greatest.
He is a true Northern soul 🖤
your songs are my prescription...they save so many people. thank you richard and thank you for putting velvet morning on it
Rock n Roll star 😎
Bravo .. voce stupenda💪👏Ellis❤
there is no space and time without our Richard
Ele simplesmente é d+adoro esse cara
Es tan amable y bello❤
A kibosh! He's such a true Northerner 🤩
Yes Richard........Yes our friend. God bless you. Amazing. Always has integrity if heart. Humble misunderstood highly intelligent emotionally. Love velvet morning love weeping willow. You said it once you listen to that album the others songs are truly something else too. God bless Richard and thank you for being you.
Stoked for the new acoustic album. Also so happy to hear the Stones have given you your song back. That whole thing kind of made me hate them for being so greedy. Glad to hear Mick and Keith have souls.
Iirc it wasn't Mick and Keith, it was the management and lawyers. They didn't even know about it for a long time
@@dmtsimms it was mr. Klein who is hated by both fans and musicians
Для Ричарда это победа!VICTORY!👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑🌹➕🐲
@@markstrekalov8156 Indeed, he was one of the main reasons The Beatles split up.
Top man ❤️
Genius.
Richard, You are so beautiful and right to think about Your music! ❤ You are maybe oldscool but You are the coolest in making Music and Life You are incredible - I mean it Hurts You're emotions  🙏 🐬delphins singing... b.t.W.
What a cool bastard
Richards work. 💖
very class he included the "ooh ooh"
brilliant rich
Saw him in Edinburgh a few years ago, was blown away, best gig ever, absolute legend
Nice🏴
................🇩🇰🇫🇴🇧🇻🇫🇴🇫🇮🇸🇪
Cool. Just pre-ordered the turquoise 2x LP indie record store copy. Repress vinyl of Northern Soul pleeeaasse! Also come play Detroit soon. Peace ✌. Great show!
Happy Birthday Richard. Happy Happy Birthday. Awwwwww God bless Richard. Its gonna be a great album this. Song in head syndrome very deep. Love that melody too. There were songs out there that just went off somewhere.
I’ve got same birthday 💪
A poet
When is this man gonna tour back in the US. I wanna see him so badly.
With his stance on the Jab can't see it happening anytime soon mate, unfortunately.
I liked when he said "Ive got a big prison yard, bigger than most"
Hope he uses that as song lyrics
Legend saw him live twice 😎 new album please 🙏🏻
I would love to see him live
@selinakyle2368 Unreal pal I saw loads of musical legends in my time Noel Galagher, Liam Gallagher, Eminem (twice) but this man is the greatest
Was this pre-recorded? Didn't feel like it was live.
officially the best album ever made in my opinion
What a great interview, never seen an interview with him before, seems a really great bloke. Nice one.
The messiah 👊🏻
God chris u wermr wrong he does love a good chat. Good to.see
The fact that he has covid & he still managed to go on the show,he absolutely smashed it, good lad!
He didn't have a ficticious disease, richard himself knows what's really going on
@@lightninggornall killed my uncle. I guess that's fiction too eh? Cretin
@@bargepoled based on what ? They just told you that unfortunately
@@lightninggornall Muppet.
@@jimi1119 absolute sheep, baaa
Oasis at Knebworth:
Noel: 'this next one's for Richard'
[Pause]
Liam: 'Ashcroft'
Noel: 'Get yer shit together'
Was hoping he was gonna say he will be supporting Liam at Knebworth 😬😬😬
Love his dry humour 🤣
What dya expect, He's a genuine , Northern lad ? He is so genuine ❤
Acoustic Hymns Vol. 1 ❤waiting for Nr. 2 that's it , Grandmaster Flash 😉⭐You are beautiful in this Interview-love You more, sorry....
That first part was a bit weird...
Chris: "How are ya?"
Richard: "Yeah, Bittersweet was the catalyst for this album..." [talks nonstop for almost 5 minutes about his process]
Chris: ".....so you're good then"
There's no edits on his feed, maybe they asked a question beforehand that was cut and I guess Richard just wanted to get straight into it.
Sorry but... "the Divinlies"??!!!! 😂😂 So cute!!!
It must be well sunny in there.
Richard Ashcroft is more Liam Gallagher than Liam Gallagher!
Noooooooo !!! 🙄
like voices maturing and sounding better, Johnny Cash, sounding better toward the end of his days, NIN , Hurt, , etc etc x
Fair play to Moyles, he let the man speak, so many interviewers want to hear themselves talk.
Wearing sunglasses in his own house like an ABSOLUTE LEGEND
ha ha, yea
As he should!
Glasgow Celtic 💚💚💚💚💚💚☘️☘️☘️
Good thing about a solo artist the band will never end due to fall outs.
Let’s go Ashcroft….. get your arse over to Manchester.
I prefer his earlier more psychedelic Verve work on A Storm in Heaven and even on the folky A Northern Soul to some degree. Urban Hymns was too commercial for me....
Let loose a creative shark
Humble man Humble man
Whisper he is the test real best
Others so second
Humble man Humble man
Interviewed himself
Richard Ashcroft is far more cool than Liam Gallagher and I love Oasis.
Urban Hymns is a masterpiece
Weeping Willow has a different feeling this year with lockdowns, have a listen to a lyric video 👌🏻
What do you remember about Knebworth... The bits I can say :)
Can’t wait for Vol.1 but Vol.2 is gonna be epic…
- Are You Ready?
- Keys To The World
- So Sister
- On Your Own
- Virtual World
👊🏼
He would never put On Yer Own, 'istroy or Virtual Whirl on a release now bc he'd have to share royalties with his 'lesser talented former sideman, ERRR bandmates'.
@@everymandan4176 he would never put anything pre-urban hymns on vol.2, he hates anything that McCabe was involved in, even though the Verve discography shits all over his.
Although I'd like to put in a request for "GRav-IT-EEEE GraVY" "6 O'COCK" & also "StoRM CLoudS & HeaVY ShowERS"
Are You Ready is without doubt the worst song he's ever done. So corporate and commercial sounding. Yuck.
The greatest song this man ever written was I Got my beat.
wont have anyone tell me different.
Can somebody explain what he means about The Stones giving something back? I’m confused.
Maybe the song, the rights and the millions they stole from Bitter sweet symphony
@@JCisclass who stole
@@jameswyer772 Rolling Stones owners
He lost all the royalties from the song, because the Stones claimed the rights due to the sample they used. They've now signed over the rights to him after raking it in for years.
Richard Ashcroft is built like an X-ray he couldnt box eggs 😂😂😂
Richard Ashcroft John Squire and Jason Pierce are the same person.
Richard Ashcroft could do all the parts of each member of the verve and doesnt then need them anyway. When I think of the verve I think if richard ashcroft. I dont even know the names of the other guys because he sings everything and he is the verve and richard ashcroft. Human Conditions Keys to the World the list continues.
Nick Mc Cabe was very important for the sound of The Verve.
'Richard Ashcroft could do all the parts of each member of the verve...' ??? Thats utter bollocks. You need to educate yourself.
Never gives a thought for the other members of the Verve :(
Well that's what's happens with music and money. Verve were amazing love every thing they have recorded and Richard is greatvon his own. Some of his music isn't what I would listen to daily. But there are many that I do.
He's absolutely shat on them. He regards them as session musicians on Urban Hymns. The man is a tit
@@bargepoled Yes. I agree. He hasn't said anything about them in a positive sense
@@matthewjdouglas6471 do they say anything positive about him? Mccabe has slagged him off, said drugs don't work sounds like bon Jovi, why do you think ashcroft should go out of his way to talk about him?
@@russelljames1016 I don't care mate. I have the music. Not interested in there spats
Chris hasn’t even got a word in yet 😂
Yeah, it's great.
Good
Superbly edited.
Way it should be, interviewers talk too much, interrupts people mid convo
Makes a refreshing change 😌
😴
I'll just go and stick your albums on tbf
Was hoping he'd say summat bout convid..stand up like Ian Brown✊
I have no doubt that he knows the truth. I would also love to hear him take a stand.
He's very much against the tyrannical measures, however it looks like they edited out what he was trying to say.
Million 👏👏👏 to Richard for taking the stance he has, conveniently completely bypassed by a mainstream DJ
He treats the legacy of The Verve with such contempt its laughable. They broke up 3 times for a reason: Him.
The fact of the matter is ANY Verve record beats his own 2x over. Richard was best when he was part of a group, co-writing with McCabe, rather than this Ed Sheeran type solo career he's embarked on with his record company yes men.
That's a fair comment.
Facts
He knows who he is and what he can do and he does respect them but he loves music more and meaning behind it. Plus has made better music on his own. Human Condition Keys to the world. Plus he sings the songs anyway so it's a no brainer. He could just do all of their parts anyway so he wouldn't even need them. I will always defend Mr Ashcroft that's just the way it goes. When I think of the verve I think of Richard Ashcroft. I dont even know the names of the other guys........
@@rainbowrose9299 That's ridiculous, he has not made better music on his own. That's simply not true. I'm not even being subjective, The Verve records are objectively better than his solo output.
Show me how Richard Ashcroft could play guitar like Nick McCabe, or play the drums as skilfully as Peter Salisbury
He didn't co write history, drugs don't work, bitter sweet symphony, lucky man, sonnet, on your own, weeping willow, space and time, one day, this time, so sister, I see the door, you and me, the crab, Lord I guess I was right did he?
Richard get your sh!t together - Noel knebworth - it happened 🤣✊🏻
Keep that man away from my cocaine!
nowt in my sock officer...
Just checked out the acoustic version. Actually prefer it without all the bells and whistles.
Does Richard express a view about Covid19 & all that surrounds it?
He’s said he won’t perform for segregated audience.
God bless him for that. I'm pretty sure he's awake to the lies, but I haven't heard a clear statement either.
At his gig tonight he was saying ‘it’s your body’ ‘don’t lose control’ ‘we don’t know what the maniacs will do next’ ‘breathe it in’ ‘we are free’
@@EnglishforFOOTBALLFANS good to hear
milky coffee man
Fucking legend
God don’t he drone on. I thought Noel was bad.
He only did b.s acoustic so he never paid out.
He lost his shit after alone with everybody. Not the same after
Rubbish!
Realise unplugged
Would love to hear him sing some Oasis tracks
one of the very few that have stood up against the covid nonsense
It looks like they edited out what he was trying to say about that.
He doesn't half talk bollocks
