Im watching all of his stuff. What a really nice guy. A true entertainer. You know what I like is when someone can just pick up a guitar and play and it sounds just perfect and Colin is one of those people who does that so effortlessly.
I saw him in a venue in London in 1995 playing to about one hundred people, most of whom didn't seem to be paying attention to the music. It was an acoustic gig but Colin played really well to a disinterested crowd and was completely professional. I remember thinking at the time that it was hard to credit that he had fronted up MAW who played to huge crowds of up to 250,000 at their peak in the eighties, and yet he still cared enough to play to a somewhat smaller crowd and give it all he had. The measure of the man. He always comes across very well in interviews.
I saw him 2 years ago to probably the same size crowd and there wasn't a whisper in the room. Just pure heaven. Goes to show the respect he has gained and why all his shows are sold out.
I saw him in 2009 in a large club, with maybe 150 people there. He played an incredible set and met fans afterwards. Great musician and really nice guy
So far my favourite interview of Colin Hay! The man is charming, humble and has a wonderful sense of humour and the interviewer is lovely and authentic!
Everything everyone is saying here about him is true. I met him in Oz just over 5 years ago and we had a chat afterwards. He was genuinely interested in talking to me partly because I'm Scottish and he wondered what made me go to Oz. A very nice and sincere guy who played a great gig. Everyone should see his shows while he is still performing.
What a guy🤣, No pretensions. Love his acoustic guitar sound and that voice... I have sung along to his songs since down under hit UK chart no. 1 spot, I'm getting good... but I'm no Colin Hay. Thank you Mr Hay for so many great songs and the good memories they bring back 🧡
The more I see of this guy the more I admire him ! He is a musical genius who could easily have been an equally great comedian :o) Brilliant stuff ! Please dont ever stop Colin :o)
That episode rekindled my love of Overkill so much so I included it in my set from that day on. Still listen to Business as Usual. Great band, great album and Colin Hay is such a great talented guy.
To be still working at 80 pretty impressive. Keeps your mind active. His voice is the same as with men at work ; didn't know he was with toto. A brilliant Scott. Drunk people- you play that better than the original.
Vraiment cool Colin Hay, un vrai talent, bravo... Si vous voulez rire un peu, allez faire un tour directement à la neuvième minutes de l'interview, vous ne serez pas décu !!!
Yes he did . I will probably upload it at some stage, I missed the first part of the song,only the first couple of lines, but it still shows his brilliance on 12 string. The song was "I haven't seen you in a long time" Keep watching this space.
She talks about him having the "Aussie" sense of humour. As good as that may be, Colin has more of the typical Scottish sense of humour, I think. Whatever, he's a very funny and talented guy.
Seems to happen to a lot of the Scottish imports. They learn to speak aussie as a kid to stop being beaten up at school then it filters back as adults.
I don't know if he is purposely controlling his lazy eye, if so I wish he wouldn't! I adore that lazy eye and in my eyes it makes him sexy and alluring. Eyes of the beholder. I prefer corks in people, like Pam Griers slanted mouth, Mila Kunis two different color eyes etc.
I never knew he was scottish. Man thats mental because Acdc, arguably Australia's biggest band, were mainly made up of second generation Scottish immigrants.
Colin was on comedian Pete Holmes podcast "You Made it Weird" recently. 2 hours of Colin sharing stories and songs. A great listen if you appreciate Colin's work. soundcloud.com/youmadeitweird/colin-hay
@@officialclairegmusician No Problem. There is also a song he played as an intro to the interview. This is also on my page uploaded at much the same time. Just scroll to the bottom of my videos.
What a wonderful interviewer. She let him tell his stories without interruption, she was calm yet adoring.
I interviewed Colin and I still recall the honest, sincere and direct answers. He is great!
No words can describe the love I have for this man and his music and Men at Work. Their music literally saved my life.
That's a lovely tribute bro.
Im watching all of his stuff. What a really nice guy. A true entertainer. You know what I like is when someone can just pick up a guitar and play and it sounds just perfect and Colin is one of those people who does that so effortlessly.
"Im watching all of his stuff." - So do I. ;)
I'll never tire of this. Colin Hay is one of the most charming men I've ever met. Oh, and one of the most talented as well! :)

Went to see him,in Bern 5 years ago. With my wife. He hugged us after the show. Love him

a very fine compliment
@@thomaselliott573 Thank you.
This interviewer is simply elegant and so skilled to bring out the best of her guest. Wonderful interview!

Absolutely loved this interview. Two fantastic people at the top of their game. Thanks for posting.

Thank you Mr Hay for so many great songs and the good memories they bring back 🧡
I could listen to him forever
All great comments..nothing to add really...oh alll right then, I am in absolute awe of this hugely talented, humble REAL man 🤩
WOW
Wonderful interview of a fantastic musician.
Kerrie Ann sure is a beautiful lady & a great interviewer.
From a 71yo Aussie fan.
Thank God he’s still with us.
The more I see of this guy the more I admire him ! He is a musical genius who could easily have been an equally great comedian :o) Brilliant stuff ! Please dont ever stop Colin :o)
I just saw him for the third time last week. He is a wonderful presence on stage.
wow hes such a humble guy
Wow, that chemistry between Colin and the interviewer. The Lady is top notch.
Such a charming witty lovely soft and talented singer and musician
what a lovely , lovely bloke !
Watching that just lifted my whole day.
He a natural comedian. This was absolutely hilarious. The interviewer was in stitches.
One of the best singer songwriters ever.
Colin is way funnier than most stand up comedians!
he still is now. he used to have a full blown aussie accent in the 80's did he put on?
Harlan Mayor I love his anecdote about the friend who was singing "It's a Beautiful World" when he encounters a shark.
He mentioned once that he took on an Australian accent to blend in at school. He apparently spoke in his native Scottish accent at home
a humble, lovable genius
and Kerry Anne's legs, whoa
Dude is a lover of music, not someone who got into the art to be a "rock star", and it shows in the quality of his music.
Absolutely ! !
I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of missing another great colin hay video
His cameo on Scrubs t.v. show
doing "Overkill" was really good
I thought.
A cool, quirky show and Colin
was amazing on it.
That episode rekindled my love of Overkill so much so I included it in my set from that day on. Still listen to Business as Usual. Great band, great album and Colin Hay is such a great talented guy.
Man, that is some mullet you had goin on there Colin. Legend!!!
True Scotsman ❤
Love his guitar playing and his music. Learning his tabs is awesome
“Waggin’ a flave” 😆😆😆 Classic Colin! Good on ya, mate 😉
Love this guy! Wish I could meet him, so funny!
El
El
Awesome...badass...honesty...he will be a star forever.
Indeed! in fact he spent the first 14 years of his life in Scotland.
People in Morwell appreciate great music. And glass eyes, real or imagined.
Superb!
great guy love him !
Colin is a hoot. Lovely chap. Great musician. 👍
That's some fancy guitar work!
thank u for uploading this! what a fun interview! miss the 90's :]

He is 69
what a great warm guy
I thought you said, 'what a great warm-up guy', LOL
What a funny talented musician...
Holy shit had nae idea this guy was Scottish
love it .,,,,

I wish they would put Kerrie Anne back on the TV - she really was a phenomenal interviewer
this dudes from my home town :)
Bloody genius.
He is so funny 😂😂😂,
She talks about him having the "Aussie" sense of humour. As good as that may be, Colin has more of the typical Scottish sense of humour, I think. Whatever, he's a very funny and talented guy.
What a guy... It's so easy to relate to him as a regular guy who made it pretty big. Cudo's...
truly a class act all the way....
I came here because I share a birthday with him (or so the internet tells me).
"Where did you get your glass eye?"
"I don't have a glass eye."
"Then what's it made of?"
I'm an American and even I think Colin haye is funny as shit hahaha especially the bit abt drunk people and glass eyes
I wish I could have my hair like him :)
Legend!
Seems a great guy.
Great Colin Hay
Essa entrevista faz tempo em? 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Só ricos tinha acesso à esses videos dessa época ocasião década. 🕴
Genius! and funny!
he looks cool with the long hair
Great talent this guy .
Colin man you should be a comedian!
Never knew he was Scottish
9:02 Lol so true hahaha!
This dude is the coolest!
Colin is very funny! lol
Good job....
I didn't realize he'd already reverted back to his Scottish accent as early as the mid 90s.
Seems to happen to a lot of the Scottish imports.
They learn to speak aussie as a kid to stop being beaten up at school then it filters back as adults.
Master Hay
King Colin
I don't know if he is purposely controlling his lazy eye, if so I wish he wouldn't! I adore that lazy eye and in my eyes it makes him sexy and alluring. Eyes of the beholder. I prefer corks in people, like Pam Griers slanted mouth, Mila Kunis two different color eyes etc.
Colin. You legend.
He's great
Hes funny and talented. Great Aussie treasure.
I never knew he was scottish. Man thats mental because Acdc, arguably Australia's biggest band, were mainly made up of second generation Scottish immigrants.
what a nice man
Another Australian Treasure with good Scottish Blood :)
Angus Young?
@@stuartmenziesfarrantDon’t forget Bon Scott who formed the band was Scottish 🏴
😍
How fun!
Colin doesn't sound like an Aussie , sounds like a Scotsman .
Sandy Sandy Keen ear. He is actually from Scotland, but he moved to Australia when he was fourteen.
He's from Ayrshire, Scotland
Classic Colm Hay.............
great guy, really enjoy his singing and songwriting but I wish he had stayed an australian citizen and kept his aussie accent
2021
6:52. The story of my life.
A bit? Holy Shite!!
AT 9:21 he says COVER ! thats to funny.
He sounds like he still has a bit of a Scottish accent.
@0:16 Did he just flick off the interviewer?
I see Colin has lost his assie accent well he did come from Saltcoats in Scotland
😂😂😂😂
2020
Colin was on comedian Pete Holmes podcast "You Made it Weird" recently. 2 hours of Colin sharing stories and songs. A great listen if you appreciate Colin's work.

What year was this
1996
🆗️ How do you know that
@@officialclairegmusician Because I recorded it off the TV and the tape is labelled.
It's my upload. You asked for the date. I replied.
Hahaha 😂 Sorry 😁
@@officialclairegmusician No Problem.
There is also a song he played as an intro to the interview.

I'm thinking Kerri Anne is quite taken away by Colin's charm
