    Genius interviewing. He put Andrew Lloyd Webber, who is awkward, in a situation where he was most comfortable talking.

    Aww that was so sweet! I know ALW is divisive for both his music and his politics, but The Phantom of the Opera is my favorite musical, love Jesus Christ Superstar and like a lot of the songs from his other musicals, too. And I love Stephen! So this was great.
    Heaven on Their Minds is also my favorite song from JCS!

      I would be too. Yes, he's probably not very popular politically (we all saw you vote to cut tax credits for the poor, Andy), he's super-awkward in his mannerisms, and it's highly likely he's lifted a phrase or three from other pieces that other people have written and put them in his own tunes, but the fact remains is that Andrew Lloyd Webber encapsulated my youth and was the backbone of my musical theater career all through high school, and love him or hate him, he redefined musical theater for at least two or three generations, which is saying a lot.
      _"I think Andrew's greatest musical idiosyncrasy is that he writes a jolly good melody, which is more than a lot of people do."_ -Tim Rice

    Contrary to popular belief, Perón was not a dictator, he won three free elections by overwhelming majority, and was actually the victim of a violent coup that dropped bombs on the city of Buenos Aires causing hundreds of civilians deaths.

    Surprised at all the hating about the singing of one guy, who never said, nor pretended to be a great singer. He is having fun--singing is for everyone, even those who sit at home, would never sing to anyone, and knock a guy doing his best. Grow up.

    Stephen. Juan Domingo Perón and his wife Evita were not dictators. JDP was elected in democratic elections in Argentina three times. 1946-1952; 1952-1955 (derrocated by militars) and 1973-1974 (until his death). I can't bealive an inteligent man like you make that mistake.

    • @lifegood1712
      @lifegood1712 3 роки тому +2

      Is there a chance that in the long run Peron did more good than harm for Argentina? Labeling him a dictator is too simple and a convenience for those opposed to his leftist policies (like paid vacations). The Heritage Foundation has a piece labeling Peron a dictator, but they wouldn't criticize Trump's dictatorial tendencies. U.S. conservativism has become dominated by unprincipled individuals that are focused on maintaining an economic elite while using conservative issues like abortion to sustain the needed political power. Peron shifted power from the economic elite to the working class. Maybe it was as unprincipled way to enhance his power but at least it provided hope for improvement. I guess that improvement was limited by Peron's corruption and more so by unprincipled right wing opposition. Maybe Peron wouldn't even work for progress with a principled opposition. At least he didn't use his power for war, so I see reasons not to associate him with Hitler or Mussolini. Instead, Juan and Evita are to me a flawed Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt. The Roosevelts had privileged upbringings and stabler political institutions to mask their flaws, leaving little to inspire Andrew Lloyd Weber and thus we have his "Evita", while "Eleanor" was left for others to compose.

    • @ignacioorona3458
      @ignacioorona3458 3 роки тому +1

      very interesting point@@lifegood1712 in regard to what @duketgg if he was or not a dictator. OK, so he was elected by an overwhelming majority and Argentina's democracy was working in full capacity (congress filled with opposition, justice system more or less independent). Argentina had nothing to do with the Third Reich in no way.
      So, there were people that didn't like him and called him a dictator, fair enough, but that does not make you into one. My guy feeling is that in the US the call dictator whatever leader doesn't play ball with the Department of State.

    Idiots in the comments don't understand British politics. Webber voted against having the house of lords going against the sovereignty of the house of commons. This is the political principle that has defined the English tradition. Regardless of whether you are for or against the liberal policies detailed in the law, to institute precedent for the lords to overstep the total authority of the commons would be direct despotism.
    Please, do not force your ideology, whether it is conservative or liberal (most likely the latter if youre reading this), in a fashion akin to a nondemocratic fascism. Let the people rule themselves.

    • @z4k4z
      @z4k4z 8 років тому +1

      +Nick “TNFox” Rhodes It isn't the function of the Lords' vote that people are commenting on here, it's Lord Webber's behaviour, flying over for the vote (and claiming he had other business in the UK).

    • @Quarter360
      @Quarter360 8 років тому

      z4k Why would so many liberals be so fucking pervasively involved in the context of transportation to a Lord's country to vote? And why does taking a plane back to his country constitute criticism? Am I expecting too much for people to be reasonable?

    • @z4k4z
      @z4k4z 8 років тому +1

      +Nick “TNFox” Rhodes Webber's return to the UK for the vote was the first time he had voted in years. He just "happened to be in the UK and decided to vote". As he said himself, he is not required to attend the House of Lords. Why did he choose to do so on that particular occasion?

    • @Quarter360
