Roger Taylor - Electric Fire Interview (1998)
/ queenofficial - Hudba
Roger aged like fine wine 😉
🤮🤮🤮
Vida Mitchell Girl imma vomit on you and see how you like it ♥️ thanks for existing and making the world a worse place
Vida Mitchell wth is up with the vomit emojis?!
Vida Mitchell ima fucking vomit on you
@@vidamitchell1529 what in the hell. Roger is the best looking man in the fucking world, periot
breaks my heart how he kept looking at the ground when asked about his childhood
It makes me happy that life has been good to you Roger. Thank you for all you have given back to the world. We are still out here listening to your music every single day. Blessings to you and yours.
protect rog at all costs🥺 he deserves everything
Queen is a touchy subject because Freddie and him were vast friends and it kinda hurts having that brought up specially since this is a solo thing
Just gotta love him. Love that wonderful dry witty sense of humor.
So good to hear Rog live - too many times he just smiles and mutters something obtuse and hilarious under his breath. Domestic violence is pandemic across the globe it's not unique to any one country.
I also love the way Roger doesn't tolerate fools. Love you Rog keep speaking up about lots of things that some want to keep hidden.
Some of us who are survivors would rather not be reminded or want to talk about it. It's not dismissive or kept hidden. It's triggering for many people. That's why people don't want to talk about it to other s or publically. Even Roger doesn't talk about his own experiences much.
That opening question... Since when is it weird not to have a track titled the same as the album? He asked as if that's like a normal thing. Oh yea, remember those great Queen tracks, 'News of the World'.. 'A Night at the Opera'.. etc? No. Remember the classic Pink Floyd song 'Dark Side of the Moon'? NO.
Conveying such an anecdote was probably just a means of asking what the title is about.
I think the interview is pretty good: the interviewer is well-prepared, and Roger's answers reflect this.
Really dumb question... this interviewer really sucks
i dont like this guy interviewing. As they talked about the song Surrender, he kept focusing on Roger's experiences with domestic violence--like the A-hole was trying to get Rog to share his private life no one really has any business knowing. The song told the world enuf of Rog's knowledge on the subject.
T Bear at what minute is it?
@@TheLaura04Ita Within the first 5 mins...so not long in...I can't believe that the interviewer went from 'Surrender' to 'Nazis' and then BACK to 'Surrender' again!!
Dollyfaceangel... He sure did and you can see the confusion (or annoyance) on Rog's face.
Indeed, poor Roger, during this intervieuw he sometimes was confused, the intervieuwer should have noticed that!!!!
He's trying to get some juice to talk about and he doesn't get the hint to leave rog's private life alone.
Miss his long hair day.
Lulu who doesnt?
Noow enjoy his long beard days! Hahahaa. Santa Rog!
You’re such a brilliant man Roger
He says he's no 'spring chicken'. Too bad. 'Cause when he WAS a spring chicken he was SOOO-O-O-O CUTE!
He's still got it... aged like fine wine
@@jonesy2111 Exactly right, a very, very fine wine.
oh those baby blues.....
I so love this incredible man who speaks his mind on every subject . Incredible personality.
Such a caring, loving , gorgeous
Human being ❤️
I like him , he speaks his mind!
Sometimes it can't be a thing of the past, why? Because people make sure they bring your past up and throw it in your face quite literally, and hours later it's playing through your mind over and over.it takes months years get over domestic violence but, I don't think you ever get over it especially when you've not been allowed talk about it, you think you've escaped it but it haunts you.
Sitting home in Singapore With my girlfriend, I just started four days ago listening to this CD and tonight I played it to my girlfriend and she loves it!!!! And that makes me happy!
Did you marry her yet?
@@HarekaTysiri wow, I deadass saw his comment and was gonna ask if they were still together when I clicked and saw your comment 😂
Hareka Tysiri...💁🏾♀️ My guess is no 😩
Anyone who's been in the music biz as long as Roger, has certainly seen their share of domestic violence. It doesn't have to be his personal experience. There's so much of it in that business, I'm sure it's been in the lives of his friends and loved ones.
Roger I can relate so much. My younger brothers and I would go to school with bruises, cuts, and black eyes. Occasionally a broken bone. It was obvious what was going on at home but back in the late 60’s thru 70’s nobody questioned anything. It was all considered a “family matter”. I tried to get us kids saved from the abuse. I was 15 at the time. I spoke up to a school counselor who called in someone from Family Services. I was told it was okay to tell everything. That it was just between us. By the time I walked home, my father and grandmother were called and told everything I had told them. I received my worst beating that day. I decided I was done. That night I ran away from home at age 15 and never went back. I eventually was able to get to Chicago to live with my mother.
So I may not have experienced the exact same sort of abuse, but I definitely can relate. Virtual hugs!
I'm so sorry you went through that. I hope that you are safe and with people who and care for you❤
He is fantastic drummer and still good looking, with sweet voice Roger Taylor.. All Queen member is very talented no one can replaced. ❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏👏
SURRENDER IS ON OF MY FAVORITE SONGS
SURRENDER IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS
She’s hiding, shamed by her situation - thanks for confronting this taboo subject that the majority disbelieve. All power to you beautiful, sensitive cutie pie 😘
We love you dearly, Roger!
Thank you for bringing awareness to domestic violence.
Not all victims are women. So are men and children.
There’s no shame.
6:49

Nice to see Roggie without the shades. Those eyes are his “big guns”
By God how I love this man no matter how old you are baby I will love you forever ❤️
Great album. Thanks Rog! Thanks
Brilliant album. Absolutely superb. Deserved some proper publicity which it never got.
Outspoken roger right on
he is the best member of queen and best drummer
I am glad to have someone to relate to. Right now I am sixteen so there's nothing I can do but there's only two years left until I can run away... thank you Roger
GREAT.
He is so cute
ROGER, HOW DO YOU KEEP FROM BEATING AN INTERVIEWER??
Roger didn't seem to like it when the interviewer brought up Queen.
Probably because he still was affected by Freddies death
I don’t see where
I don’t see how he could not mention Queen, he is where he is because of Queen.
@@nancyblumberg4612 but this is a solo thing
I mean yea, this interview was ‘98 and he died ‘91 so just shy of 7-8 he had been gone, I mean it still affects Deacy and it’s been what like 30years? I mean ofc it hurt him.
I kept getting upset when they zoomed out of his face😂😂😂
Very good interviewer
It’s 1:37 AM I just got a McDonald’s ad and now I’m hungry 😩😩
Wat's????
Um, okay? Enjoy I guess.
Hallo, thank jou!!!
@@nat_wood23 Hallo, not enjoy, i wish jou a happy day!!!!
Roger has such beautiful hands. I know it’s old fashioned to say, but I wish he’d never gotten the tattoos😔 wonder where that influence came from (I know the answer so don’t answer me luvies)😘
Uh- Idk where did that influence came from.
Can you please tell me? Lol
Sarina?
Victoria Jones he did say that he always wanted tattoos though
Jou are. Freddie!!!!
@09:45. I wonder if window glass can have an effect on the quality of recorded sound.
Sounds like Alan Partridge
"Roger you have a album called electric fire but not a track called electric fire"
estaria bueno si estaba subtitulado pero bueno gracias xd
I saw the cover of this and already knew…
Off topic but he is wearing a "jacket" with the norwegian flag on it, which is where im from 🥰
Interviewer annoying. He’s pushy
10:00 is proof roger is actually in love with his car
DID HE SAY KUALA LUMPUR OHMYGOD UM HI
I didn't realise that laptop's were around in the 1990's
Roger I would love to talk to you mr I'm in love with my car
wait.... was roger taylor a survivor of domestic violence???
Yes people actually believe that that's the reason why he has anger issues
@@moonlightgirly4285 omg.. I feel so bad for him! but then that means it must've happened when he was pretty young, right? because he's had his famous temper ever since Queen was Queen.. so maybe an early on gf??
@@emilie11291 I believe it was family related domestic violence but don't quote me on that
Just speculation but perhaps explains why his parents divorced when he was 14. He was the only member of the band with divorced parents. Quite unusual in England in the early 1960s, assuming the divorce laws were different then
His father was an abusive drunk.
Traducao p português
He kept looking at the floor when asked about when he was a kid 😭
We could use these songs again now. Anti Nazi anti domestic violence, police might take a lesson as well. 2022/23.
He looks vaguely like Lars Ulrich
“Why are you crying so damn loud?”
Scandal
Interviewer sounds like piers morgan
I think he has been drinking and maybe popped a couple Xanax. He is acting strange.
Hey Roger I would like to hear an apology for John Deacon!
Seriously, move on. He's spoken well of him since then, and it's weird that you're still ranting about it on this completely unrelated video. People say a lot of things in interviews. Plus the press loves to play up the drama, because they know the public does, as you're proving.
Vida Mitchell U mad bro?
Get over it dude.
I know what you’ve read but I think you’re not very good at understanding things. He didn’t insult him so shut up
Please, be normal for a second.
Is Roger dead?
No lol
@@ivybertram9347 😂 I was dumb asf
Oh Roger baby❤ you interview so well👑👑👑👑
He looks like he’s been drinking. I want to like him but just can’t get past him saying John Deacon was a sociopath. That is not cool, Roger! How would you like it if someone labeled you! It’s just not acceptable.
I'm sure they've all labeled each other many times. Plus very recently Roger talked about missing John's bass playing.
id have done a few shots too if i had to face this asshole.
The sociopath comment was odd. I wonder what prompted it?
KathyW2200
I’m not sure. He was talking about him not playing with them any longer and not really talking to them about anything but the business side of Queen. That hardly calls for him being a sociopath. I just thought it was totally uncalled for.
Vida Mitchell Agreed it's odd within the obvious context. I think there's more to this. I've always wondered why John stopped talking to them. Not playing with them doesn't pair with not speaking to them at all. I feel for all of them, as they not only lost a friend (after watching him die for years, a horrific situation), but their jobs as well, really, as the group as they knew it ceased to exist.
