Ian's intelligence is so under estimated. Lovely to see him being interviewed by another musician who is on his level, rather than the normal condescending interviewers who just piss him off.
Love how jools interviews brown with respect and not downplaying him and making him out to be a sham, brown was so honest and about the music not the fame and the publicity, proper rooted love him
....''Me and John Squire havent spoke for 8 years...so its unlikely...highly unlikely''..............3 years later The Stone Roses at Heaton Park becomes the fastest selling concert in British history!!!
William Gray Sean Ryder said it was instigated partly because he had a costly divorce bill. They've split up again now anyway, and it seems to be acrimonious again.
One of the reasons the Roses got back together was Brown and Squire meeting up at Mani's mother's funeral. Events like that put everything else into perspective.
A lot of comments about Ian Brown's intelligence on here, which is interesting. It seems to me there are a lot of people who are media savvy these days who play well to the camera and appear to be intelligent, who may or may not be. Meanwhile, there are (as I interpret it) quieter, less fame-hungry people like Ian Brown who create some of the most glorious, iconic art that has ever existed - and I don't think I'm being hyperbolic there, I believe that's true. If you disagree, good for you, but what have you done - especially those who are questioning how intellectual someone with an accent may be?
@@davidhenderson9707 Big time , he's getting some unwarranted hatred from so called fans for going against the status quo, the same people that allegedly loved him for it to begin with, Ian is being Ian and thank God for him. :)
Where are those comments? I've scrolled down and all I can find is compliments. He neither needs nor wants to pretend to be anyone or anything but himself; behind that laconic laid-back style and dry humour, which is all genuine, this guy is a highly intelligent, original and creative gift to the world.
Ian Brown And John Squire opened my eyes to music in 1989, Im on my 3rd Stone Roses album because of the amount of times i listen to it. Great man, hail Sir Ian Brown.
Legend - I was 15 in the late 80s and we used to swagger about Manchester thinking we were Ian Brown. Love the fact he doesn't sound American when he sings. To be fair his row with John squire was bitter and lasted ages - it was only at Mani's mams funeral that they saw each other again and talked. Sure the money was attractive but they'd had huge numbers thrown at them for years already.
so cringey when he says he smoked a spliff with dre and then you just hear the crowd go "Errrrrr" wtf lol , so what man? ians a rockstar, dr dre is a fucking rapstar you think they're just gonna sit there and drink melon juice ? nahhh I like how Jools doesnt give a shit and talks to him about weed, jools is a cool guy man
He’s one of my musical heroes. He’s not perfect, nobody is, but The Stone Roses album changed my life and I still listen to it over 30 years later. That band changed British music forever. His solo stuff was fine, when I got to see them in the Etihad stadium in Manchester I felt like I had completed a journey. True musical genius can affect you that deeply. For that I’ll always be grateful to this guy.
" they defined music like no other " that's a bit over the top!!! ,haven't you listened to any other music??? I was 17 when there first album was out brought it and yeah they have a few decent tracks ......they were a stepping stone to other music, there definitely not the best!!! You diehard roses fans have lost touch with reality!!!!
@@willyc.8141 what??? THIS IS CALLED HAVING A OPINION!!! The best band to come out of Manchester is 8O8 state........facts ( I live 10 miles away from Manchester, so stop being over dramatic)
I'm glad the Roses did sort it out. Seen them with my Mrs at T in the Park in 2013/14I think 🤔. No sure when it was Took my then 10 year old son(18 now😮) down to the Etihad to see then on Father's Day wknd 2015...... Brilliant memories.
"What has he written?" I Wanna be Adored, Fool's Gold, Sally Cinnamon. He's f%^$#ing brilliant. What I love is he's so unpretentious, i'm not even sure he's particularly clever. He's just so honest and has such incredible natural gifts. he's a genius.
I read somewhere he was given a scholarship to study at a prestigious college when he left school, but he decided to form The Patrol instead...the rest is history :)
Ian Brown seems so chilled in this interview. Like he feels really comfortable with Joel's Holland although Joel's is the best. Never comes across as someone who thinks he's better than anyone however he must be the GOAT when it comes to pretty any genre of music.
Never ever, ever say "never", unless you are literally on your death bed. Life is strange and short, you will find yourself doing things you never expected to be doing again once you realize you may never be able to do it again. Don't let it go to waste while you've got it. Old friends are always friends, forever.
He put Dr Dre on blast, he was meant to have quit years ago if I was dre I'd make him phone the wife and say it was a mistake. For someone who went to grammar school he isn't that bright.
I'm a big stone roses and ian brown fan. I went to wembley to watch the roses before they split up again. I like the fact he said he like rap cos i love my hip hop like cyprus hill and beastie boys i just wished they'd done another album. It would've been the cherry on the cake👌
Heaton Park was the best gig I’ve ever been to, and it was so poignant for a lot of Roses fans who were too young to see them first time around, a proper bucket list gig.
"me and the gang 'ant spoke for 8 years". but luckily when they did they realised they were best friends. Which reminds me I must find the numbers of the old friends I've lost touch with.
Just came from the Madison Square Garden show, and Ian sounded AWESOME! I really didn't know what to expect given his track record with live shows, and I had the greatest time sweating my ass off dancing. Ps there was no one there under 30. :D
Well Ian mate - you were wrong about yer former band mates. Thank fuck !! Long live The Stone Roses. Manchester band and PROUD !! Yaay. Peace & love. Rx
mate I am a hardcore oasis/noel/liam fan but you are 100%bang on there Ian is very cool nice guy whilst being very much true to his own nature "a true indie rock n roll star".
I basically never gave a fuck about any kind of music,went to empress ballroom with my mates who told me about this band,from that moment on I thought this will fuckin do me,the mighty stone roses,then oasis came along and from then I wanted to become a mancunian instead of Scottish 😂love the mancs,they changed British music for ever,LIVE FOREVER OASIS,STONE ROSES
Ian: I smoked a spliff with Dre jools: did he give you much of it or was he bogarting it Ian: No, he give it' me, he wasn't bogarting it at all.... These are gentlemen who understand and appreciate the ethicate of sharing....
@VinylHigh Na they got back together because Renni finally said yes, Ian and John had been talking about it for some time, Manni was obviously game, but they weren't doing it without Renni, pretty sure even after a divorce settlement he'd be doing alright regardless of a Stone Roses reunion...
I love this bloke. It's rare in this day and age to be able to respect a musician, I have nothing but unconditional respect for Ian Brown.
him and Henry rollins are definitely upthere as goats
Ian's intelligence is so under estimated. Lovely to see him being interviewed by another musician who is on his level, rather than the normal condescending interviewers who just piss him off.
..yeah deep conversation........had trouble keeping up at points.
I still wish he gave that Jones dude a crack!
It's incredible how you reached that opinion from this video, as I left it feeling like he had the brains of an 8 year old.
@@TheHungryPigeon Perhaps you are not on the level to see it
@@harveysmith100 LOL I guess not. Y'all must be on a completely different level to me.
Ian Brown, Legend, wordsmith, visionary & truth speaker, Respect.
100%
Love how jools interviews brown with respect and not downplaying him and making him out to be a sham, brown was so honest and about the music not the fame and the publicity, proper rooted love him
He's got cheek bones for days
I want his cheek bones ..!
....''Me and John Squire havent spoke for 8 years...so its unlikely...highly unlikely''..............3 years later The Stone Roses at Heaton Park becomes the fastest selling concert in British history!!!
to be correct this was 2004 roses reformed 2011
Yeah he ran outta of money
William Gray

William Gray I doubt that.
One of the reasons the Roses got back together was Brown and Squire meeting up at Mani's mother's funeral. Events like that put everything else into perspective.
The best interviews are when Ian respects the interviewer like her with Jools
Ian Brown seems like an awesome guy
Hmmmm
Apparently hes actually a bit of a Dick head. The new tore he is doing is an absolute joke it's just a money grab in such shame.

Defo!
Spot on. I'd like to see the BBC invite Ian back for a rendition of his new tune "Little Seed Big Tree"

Steve Jones this is now interview a guest Jools a musical genius always shows and gets respect from all his guests .
I'm glad the Roses did sort it out. Seen them with my Mrs at T in the Park in 2013/14I think 🤔. No sure when it was
Took my then 10 year old son(18 now😮) down to the Etihad to see then on Father's Day wknd 2015...... Brilliant memories.
What a legendary legacy this guy has
Never getting back together my arse
We literally have the same picture 😂
Biblical

I just discovered his song "F.E.A.R". WOW! He's Amazing..
UltraRockSounds I actually think his solo work as far as songs go was better than anything the roses done, no disrespect to Reni and John
David Winger 'I'm not sure he's that clever'... 'he's a genius'.. Geniuses are quite clever 🤔👍🏻
Nottalot1 Come on now, he's a bit dim. You can't honestly believe he wrote his own stuff. Must have been a relative of George Gershwin or someone.
met him on saturday morning on the way back from the isle of wight fest, top bloke and as genuine as expected
Fucking Legend 👍🏻
Standing up for TRUTH through words & music
love Ian Brown. he's fantastic.

Ian Brown is a fuckin’ CHAMP’ of a man!💯🏴✊🏼
smoked a splif with Dre fuckin ell how cools that haha
He put Dr Dre on blast, he was meant to have quit years ago if I was dre I'd make him phone the wife and say it was a mistake. For someone who went to grammar school he isn't that bright.
"if they make scarface 2 and change it to maijauna, I'm your man" THIS FILM NEEDS TO BE MADE.
And thankfully he did get back with the Roses. Just a shame no new album 😔
"smoked a spliff with dre"
damn now I see where liam gallagher got his appearance and everything from
I'm a big stone roses and ian brown fan. I went to wembley to watch the roses before they split up again. I like the fact he said he like rap cos i love my hip hop like cyprus hill and beastie boys i just wished they'd done another album. It would've been the cherry on the cake👌

7 years later and they're back
I would say Ian’s sharp as a tack. Highly intelligent tbh.
Dude's a legend. Freaking love IB.
"I love the rappers me"
They had Public Enemy as support act back in 2016 I think it was when I saw them at The Etihad
I am from Longsight! what a top guy Ian Brown is :) plus he is a red which make him even more of a class lad haha
He’s from Warrington
@@michaelbennett6925 he was mainly raised in Altrincham, Greater Manchester
Manchester 2016 - I was there
Seems to keep it very real. I like him
"me and the gang 'ant spoke for 8 years". but luckily when they did they realised they were best friends.

I'm 19 and I was there lol
Are you a hipster?
+Domenica Sebastian liking the stone roses doesn't make you a hipster it means you have good taste in music
It's a joke. Calm down. Obviously I like The Stone Roses, too.
Domenica Sebastian when I was there in Manchester it was mainly teenagers
brilliant geeza
Also good to hear his musical influences:-)
Two legends...
Well Ian mate - you were wrong about yer former band mates. Thank fuck !! Long live The Stone Roses. Manchester band and PROUD !! Yaay. Peace & love. Rx
Refreshing honesty ......
pleased you was re-born , roses smashed heaton park !!
I like wrappers to, My favourite being MC Twix and Wrap Master Penguin.
This is a great interview!
i never used to like jools holland....but after watching him a few times hes a cool guy :)
Thank god he reviewed his standing on the roses reunion. ..
So fucking glad Ian and John made up their differences and that all of us who love the roses music could celebrate the music together at Heaton Park.
Jools Holland
Handled this interview brilliantly
Brownie warmed up to him
Not easy
Very Naturay
Ian manages to be cool and interesting whilst at the same time amiable and humble, something pretenders like Liam Gallagher will never accomplish.
Longi1974 I love Liam but are completely spot on with that comment.
mate I am a hardcore oasis/noel/liam fan but you are 100%bang on there Ian is very cool nice guy whilst being very much true to his own nature "a true indie rock n roll star".
Longi1974 he does now. He didn’t used to that that. The interviews when he was in the roses ( the first time) were dire.
Still rather go to the pub with a pint with Liam then Brown
H1RFULT Maybe. I wouldn’t turn down a drink with either!
I bet Ian Brown subscribes to Cheekbone Magazine.
LEGEND.
"Would you ever get back together with The Stone Roses" "Not in my lifetime". Hahaha.
“would you get back together?”
“Not in this lifetime, music is an intimate thing (unless I get offered millions in which case I’ll play with anyone)
I’ve watched Harry Potter so many times and never noticed that was Ian haha small world
smashed it? i should fucking say so. brilliant gig, never thought i'd see the day but ecstatic that i did!
He wasn't saying he's from longsight, he's saying that's where the band came out of
the greatest manc
He’s a tin foil hat crackpot. Stuff he’s been spouting about covid is disgusting
Lust for Ian. Briliantasf$@. Adore him and the guys oh Lord.
haha too cool, great attitude from a great musician
Legend
Thank God you've gone back on your word Ian.
Smoked a splif with Dr Dre... nuff said
What is a dr dre
I hung backstage with Rakim and his crew.
I basically never gave a fuck about any kind of music,went to empress ballroom with my mates who told me about this band,from that moment on I thought this will fuckin do me,the mighty stone roses,then oasis came along and from then I wanted to become a mancunian instead of Scottish 😂love the mancs,they changed British music for ever,LIVE FOREVER OASIS,STONE ROSES
Nothing wrong with a bit of weed.
There is nothing wrong with in if you are an anti social low life scumbag
Liam could give him half of his money. Because that’s the man Earned it😊 for him.
Never getting back together, eh? OK, Ian
it was 7 years ago
He comes into my work all the time, HES SUCH A NICE GUY! :) X
There is God and there is the peaky blinders and the stone fukin roses Ian brown lucky boro fc liveforever 🎉
Jolly,funny,colorful,bright thoughts.
ian brown 👍🏻👍🏻
Ian: I smoked a spliff with Dre
jools: did he give you much of it or was he bogarting it
Ian: No, he give it' me, he wasn't bogarting it at all....

Spose I shouldn't be surprised he smokes weed when he puts out music like his .. Definitely wouldn't mind smoking with him
“If they do scarface 2 & swap it for marrywana im you’re man” LOL
Never say 'never', fella.
....and he's come to the door and Reni's let him have a full 5 litre tin of fucking gloss.
Broony
Fuckin Legend in his game
"Would you ever get back together with The Stone Roses?"
"No, not, not in this lifetime I wouldn't have thought so."
Thank god he's fickle eh.
its like new York, Chicago, paris , longsight.....
top bloke...
Top lad!
It is this way,when people loose sight of things,and lower themselves into unknown territory.It makes me sick!
Ian brown is cool
Drop your popcorn and you'll miss me. HA HA HA :)
LEGEND,cool as fuck
Steve Jones - this is how its done
Manchester in the area!
