It's a shame they hated me or you as it's one of my faves of theirs but I can understand why they hated it cos it wasn't organically grown as much as made to pacify the money men but that's the dichotomy art will always have with business, to make the art you need money but then money pressure can stifle the creative process.
The interviewer is putting his own take on the questions and glosses right over loads of great singles which is disappointing. I love A New Day, Me or You etc as a rare more melodic side to KJ. Even though they probably came about from the record label pressure, they’re great songs and not sell out singles. And Adorations is beautiful (shame the label were trying to package the band’s changing sound as a kinda lame pop thing at that time)
@@redherronrecords I remember MTV playing "Eighties" pretty often. Still don't know how that happened. Programmers must not have understood what the song was saying.
I think they're being modest 80s typifies more than just that particular decade you could rename it for any decade and it would still apply cos it's less about the decade as much as man's commercial greed and destruction in general
I have loved this band since 1979, nothing has changed except my love and respect has grown.
What an amazing display of honesty! KILLING JOKE!!
killing joke- my fave band and friends of 42 years
"Youth was a bit confused, he'd had a few". Bloody hilarious!
I have been falling in love over and over for this band since the 1980's.
wish i could hear the questions :(
Superb
Just realised it's 'The Death And Resurrection Show'
Can't wait for that to be released, it's looks amazing...
I’m really critical of bands but Killing Joke are definitely in my top 5.
Hilarious story.
fucking love these guys

Anyone know what 'movie' Jaz is referring to @ 9:19 & 10:36 in this clip?

Love Of This Land ?

@Strange Strange Yeah, I was really hoping to hear some discussion of Birds of a Feather, for one...
6:09 Seems as though Geordie maybe disagrees?
I think Eighties typifies THIS era.
For realsies.
