Yes. Two feet firmly on the ground. I imagine he learnt a lot at that time, and iit served him well for the rest of his days. He knew he wanted more. He got it. He would have gone back to "proper" work, if he'd decided to. He gave no fucks in all the right ways. Still think we'd have clashed. Good job I'm a no talent. Our paths never crossed.

A far more complex individual than the comments before tend to show. Mark E. Smith was not a nice man, this much is true. However, he was honest - brutally, so. His lyrical content was profound on many, perhaps most, occasions and he was, for better and worse, a true rebel - a true punk.

I met him in a pub in Devon one afternoon. He was due to play a gig nearby, and he was drinking a pint at the bar - I recognised him, and when I went to the bar to buy a drink, I said hello and I mentioned he was in the fall and playing nearby - but he just grunted something and seemingly didnt want to speak, so I said nothing more and waited in silence for my drink to be served and left the bar to sit down... I then realised all the stories were true of him being a bit grumpy! ;)
Many comments on this thread misunderstand him. He was a miserabalist, anti fashion, anti sheep mentality, working class git always and he always said, whether it pleased left wing cowards or right wing bigots what he thought. There is no left and right in honest social commentary or great art. We are all guilty of inconsistent bollocks. He was brought up working class. Pen and paper. Smith's off kelter remark about refugees was spot on. Feeling uncomfortable? Brilliant.
It's not like there are two sides in the Syrian war though, is it? You cannot compare that situation to the British army fighting Nazism...can you? Thank god we've never had to rely on Mark E Smith to fight any wars for us if he's going to get all righteous on us. If you're going to make great swooping generalizations about war, maybe he should have fought in Falklands!
I really wish I had the faintest idea what you are talking about. Mark E Smith is a kitchen sink school commentator/poet, someone who has sharp insights into the human condition. His comments on politics and society are his alone.Take it or leave it.
David B. is spot on about Mark E. Smith- Mark, was obviously a drunk poet, a true artist and maybe not a politically correct fellow- but his art was great, pay attention to that not the man.
Yeah, 'economic migrants', trying to escape from war to get something for their families. Why are there many men? Well, do you know what can happen to a woman on such a dangerous route? I wouldn't send my daughter nor would you.

Then again I'm American and we have a major 'news' network and political party 10x more inflammatory than anything said here.

We live in a social media world where people just create echo chambers and never hear anything other than their own narrow perspectives of the world, even sadder when so many of those perspectives are no more than force fed beliefs from the left/right paradigm.

Yep, gotta get those credentials established, early on in case people think you're just another untouchable caricature media celebrity with your cogent thoughts dulled by years of abuse...
Like most old people, he ended up believing what he read in the papers. He was a pretty vacuous guy, I don't think he had a strong belief in anything other than who was buying the next drink as long as it wasn't him.

Mark E Smith latest wife is really attractive. Yes he may drink a lot and his speech is incomprehensible, but one thing he sure knows how to get is attractive women as wives !!
Yes, he's some kind of voodoo. No small part of is his renown, and mystique as a rock musician/poet. . . but there's still something mysterious and envy making about his ability to attract such beauties.
Can anyone transcribe (or at least sum up) what he says about the refugee crisis? I always thought I speak good English (and understand well) but damn, I cannot understand a single word of what he is speaking.
He wondered why only young man came and left their family at home. The answer is simple, young mam are powerfull enough to survive the trip to Europe. Their idea is finding a job and than let their family come to join them. I am afraid the refugees have a to much positive idea of what Europe is. Most who will get a job in Germany will have to start at 1 Euro an hour, that will mean poverty and frustration
There are sound answers to all of Marks Questions, the interviewer is indeed quite lost. I dearly hope, Mark E Smith would have enjoyed to discuss real answers to his rhetorical questions, damn sad, that we will not find out anymore....
@willy vlyminck - Ok, but this massive migration will destabilisize Europe more and more, because we cannot generate indefinitely jobs. Every man, who isnt an idiot, should comprehend that. Notice: There are more than 4.000.000.000 poor people in the world
I only understood the part about all the refugees being men and why are the people afraid to ask why. So I imagine all the other parts were brilliant as well.
He did nice things..very thoughtful things..he did thoughtless things..alchahol is a nice thing and not a nice thing..life is a nice thing and not a nice thing..his wok and his ethic are way more important than nice and not nice..a pleasure to call him my friend..most of the time

God how we miss him. Such talent for a humble shipping clerk. His music and lyrics will live on forever
You will never pin down Mark E Smith on his politics. My theory is he just enjoys pissing off anyone with an opinion.
otherwise i'd just call him an old fart who once sung '' who makes the nazis''' ...

He's wrong. Footage of refugee camps shows plenty of women and children suffering alongside the men.
Then you should hide under your bed until it's safe to come out. I'll let you know when all the scary men are gone.
Most of the migrants are actually being brought over from North Africa and the middle east - only a very small percentage are actually from Syria.

A salutary warning for us all.
Can anyone transcribe (or at least sum up) what he says about the refugee crisis? I always thought I speak good English (and understand well) but damn, I cannot understand a single word of what he is speaking.
+Łukasz Wieczorek He is basically saying they should not be in the UK.
He wondered why only young man came and left their family at home. The answer is simple, young mam are powerfull enough to survive the trip to Europe. Their idea is finding a job and than let their family come to join them. I am afraid the refugees have a to much positive idea of what Europe is. Most who will get a job in Germany will have to start at 1 Euro an hour, that will mean poverty and frustration
There are sound answers to all of Marks Questions, the interviewer is indeed quite lost. I dearly hope, Mark E Smith would have enjoyed to discuss real answers to his rhetorical questions, damn sad, that we will not find out anymore....
He's pointing out that most of the migrants are fighting-age men
@willy vlyminck - Ok, but this massive migration will destabilisize Europe more and more, because we cannot generate indefinitely jobs. Every man, who isnt an idiot, should comprehend that. Notice: There are more than 4.000.000.000 poor people in the world
He was a national gem
I only understood the part about all the refugees being men and why are the people afraid to ask why. So I imagine all the other parts were brilliant as well.
He did nice things..very thoughtful things..he did thoughtless things..alchahol is a nice thing and not a nice thing..life is a nice thing and not a nice thing..his wok and his ethic are way more important than nice and not nice..a pleasure to call him my friend..most of the time
Not the answer Krishnan was looking for regarding the migrant crisis, his face was a picture! He's nearly as much of a "journalist" as Cathy Newman!
The Wealdstone Raider's on Channel 4. Where are his glasses?
Rest in peace, Mark
I can't believe the interviewer did not once ask him about A Brief History Of Time.
NOTHING LIKE TRUTH IN A CLIMATE OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

Me interesa este Artista y lo que significa en la cultura Britanica, me encanta la música de The Fall un estilo único y diferente el sonido de Manchester de los 70s 80s , Cantantes posteriores se inspiraron en el estilo de Mark E Smith. , saludos desde Argentina
