The interviewer was professional. She did some research and had some knowledge ready for the interview. She asked the important questions and then let them talk. A lot was squeezed into those four and a half minutes.
Yeah considering how often the questions on these shows are nothing more than lowest common denominator, she actually put a bit of pep into her questions. Good job by her!
It's crazy how short lived their success as a band was. They were amazing, and I'm convinced had they been able to release Pull in 1990 (instead of 20 years later because of a shitty record company) it would have found an audience. They would have at least made some more music together afterwards, and it's a crime they were robbed of that.
They were a part of my youth in the mid 1980's.....the lead singer is immensely talented, as are all the members, but his vocal abilities really stood out to me.
Couldn't agree more Vance. I'll never forget the first time I finally got to hear "Pull". I stood in the middle of the room with my eyes closed, & I felt 23 again. It's funny, I've never seen this clip before & it's the first time I've ever heard Steve Farris speak.
While I was feeling overwhelmed and broken, wondering through young adult mazes of life choices, Mr. Mister's music and lyrics helped me accept my wings just in time to accept the Marine Corps unexpected offer first, and Las Vegas' NDOT offer second, after realizing I can fly better accepting, perfecting and using the unique skills God gave me. I wanted to be a musician and lead singer. I enjoy playing guitar and singing around the campfire. Church is a great way to have fun and sometimes be appreciated, doing dreams, while moving souls toward healed spiritual wings.
I watched & (VHS tape) recorded this interview as they aired it live - still have the tape, too! :D. I was already a long time Ardent fan of Pages, the group both Richard and Steve George were in prior to reforming as Mr Mister, so after they hit it big with Broken Wings, Kyrie, and Is It Love, I was SO Excited & happy for them that they finally got put on the map! Broken Wings is still my favorite song of all time. I was actually fortunate enough to see them three times in concert back in 1986 and 1987. We saw them two times at The Palace in Hollywood and once again at the Greek Theater. At The Palace, I was right at the stage both times and able to shake Richard's hand. I also caught them as they were coming out of the building at the end of the concert and got their autographs - well, all except Steve Farris. He was AWOL for some reason. I've also been able to communicate with Pat regularly since about 2005. He's a very open and engaging guy - very nice. Pat was even very engaging back in 87, too and smiled big time at me - just extremely friendly when responding to my request for an autograph. Richard and Steve George were extremely reserved, though when I approached them for an autograph and told them how much I loved their music from the Pages days. It's truly amazing they got as far as they did back then when gimmicky hair, image, and synth-driven music was the order of the day.... but good music will always last!
1985, actually was the year their biggest album success was released that continued into '86. Too bad the follow-up album flopped, it was musically just as good only lacked the immediate hit songs.
I was a teenager back then, and honestly, Mr.Mister was a bright light among lewd, god bashing, satanic music on the radio waves. I loved them then and I still love them. They're lyrics bring hope & godly thoughts with 'Kyrie Eleison"= (Lord have mercy). The lyrics of "Broken Wings" suggest a faithful marriage through sickness and health, commitment, monogamy, things that can only be found in the marriage covenant between one man, one woman. Marriage is worth fighting for. Wonderful encouraging music.
@@nagrabagra4924 That's fine, but are you claiming "faithful marriages, commitment, monogamy" are purely the domain of Christianity? ergo the foundation of morality is instilled by a creator?
@@nagrabagra4924 and now we begin the age old debate on ethics via creationism vs 50,000 generations of evolution. Remember that which can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.
Nice that each of them were asked questions and got to speak! I was so excited for the follow up after loving all the cuts on this album, and I was disappointed in the writing.
3:35. These guys, like Steely Dan and TOTO are music geeks, straight up. You hear them talk, and you realize they don't have groupies and drugs waiting, but are genuinely obsessing over chord progressions, tonality, timing, feel, and just getting it right.
The Cars were similar, really, but in the early days in the 70s the Cars did have groupies. Ric Ocasek really was and is a musical genius but also a huge geek!
I like the way he said we get a lot of fan mail , good old days of having to write and seal in an envelope and stamp and post 😁 these were big in Ireland in the 80s where I live , broken wings was unbelievable. Didn't know Andre Agassi was in the band then
as a school teacher (now retired) Mr. Mister's "Stand & Deliver" (the title song to the Jaime Escalante biopic) became an ANTHEM in my classroom, where i used Escalante stand & deliver techniques to engage my students ---- i thank you guys so much for your talent and inspiration
Back then when youngsters made amazing music! I say youngsters because they looked like that and they were very young. Nowadays in the music business lots of young people who only make lots of noise.
"MR MISTER" is one of THE BEST BANDS to Ever come out of the 80s and we're considerably Underated...and then somehow bands like Bon Jovi who wrote 2 songs and just changed the lyrics, keys and tempo for decades get Aclaim

That or they wandered into the Golden Girls' living room.... do I see the lanai in the background there??
Shooting stars for sure.
Richard Page is one of the best lead singers ever.
And good at Bass too.
💯🎯
And so very attractive…. Sigh…
so easy to look at as well. :).
Kyrie is one the most important song in my entire life. Glad to have lived in the 80's.

Broken Wings is quite possibly the greatest AOR track from the entire 1980's!
And an excellent video too.
its good but b w the british 80s music the best fact

Wish Mr Mister were still together.
So do I!! I loved the vocals, guitar,bass, keyboards and drums!! Please return guys!!!!
Always loved this guys. I was 16 in this interview. I remember their 15 minutes of fame. Kyrie one of my favorite songs.
He's so gorgeous and seems so sweet too.
Richard Page was a very handsome guy back in the day...
And he still is handsome!
his voice is like omggggg
He's hasn't aged well at all.
I think he still is but just older. His voice still sound young tho! Gemini baby!
He still is!!
Omg the mullet cam from the back is amazing

Great post, thank you for sharing Jonathan 🙂
One of my favorite bands. And Richard, one of my favorite artists!

Pages are an astonishingly good band, and criminally overlooked. The 3rd album should be considered a yacht rock classic!
They all look sleepy cute.
Page sounds like a genuinely nice dude
they were a great band but their success was too short...never the less their songs from 1986 are classics and defining sounds of that era in music.
CinematicMaj Absolutely! I still play all their CD'S all the time!
1985, actually was the year their biggest album success was released that continued into '86. Too bad the follow-up album flopped, it was musically just as good only lacked the immediate hit songs.
Steve George...MMMMM, yes please!! ;) That man gets me worked up. Beyond adorable!
Oh, yes! Awesomely adorable!
Richard gets me going...for me it's always lead vocalist/musicians that mesmerize me, inspire me
ann davis I love Richard he reminds me of Rutger Hauer and I am literally obsessed with Rutger!

They werent a Christian band.
@@mickeybowmeister1944 I never thought or said that they were. The Judeo/Christian words and intent is there though.

Oh, the mullets...
1986 great yeaar great band miss this kind of music sighhh...anyway thanks for sharing
Ty for this. God bless u & stay safe in quarantine 2020. I've always wanted to b in a band but its yet to be fulfilled.
Great band, Richard Page has such an amazing voice, I just love this man.
Nice that each of them were asked questions and got to speak! I was so excited for the follow up after loving all the cuts on this album, and I was disappointed in the writing.

Actually Richard Page at one time had a serious drug habit.
@@MissJensk1 Actually, you're right. Regardless, all those guys were still serious musicians. I respect that.
ToTo actually asked Page to join them...but was loyal to Mr Mister
💕 love me some Mr Mister! Love the voice that Richard Page brings to the group!! Keep doing what ur doing!! Joyce Carr
These guys are gods, especially Richard and Steve Farris 💕💕
I like the way he said we get a lot of fan mail , good old days of having to write and seal in an envelope and stamp and post 😁 these were big in Ireland in the 80s where I live , broken wings was unbelievable. Didn't know Andre Agassi was in the band then
Broken Wings truly rocks...💯
Richard and Steve George.... YUM YUM YUM!!!!!!
Oh, yes! Total sexy hotness!
Richard is dreamy!

wow those 80's blazers and haircuts!
Me encanta este grupo los 80 lo máximo
I'd like to see Sting and Richard Page share a song.
I would like to hear Phil Collins cover "Broken Wings".
I think it would sound amazing. Collins can take real high notes if he wants.
Richard’s beautiful blond hair 🥰
Check out Steve Farris blistering solo on Creatures of the Night by KISS!
I love Steve Farris. Such a cutie 💕💕😍

Steve Ferris looked very frustrated!!!
Steve Farris is a good guitar player but his role in the band is somewhat limited. Even his solos are quite limited or are too short.
Totally in love with Pat!
