      On all grounds? You are either very young, very stupid or very easily influenced.

    Great man and conversation, I like how he says that "Its interesting that people connect with previous generations accross large barriers of time" , We need to remeber that.. these were his choices:
    Neil Young - Helpless
    Ryuichi Sakamoto, Jaques Morelenbaum & Everton Norton (Babel Soundtrack) - Endless Flight
    Leonard Cohen - Bird on a Wire
    Chet Baker - My Funny Valentine
    Ray Charles - Georgia On My Mind
    Giacomo Puccini - E Lucevan Le Stelle (from Tosca) sung by Franco Corelli
    Billie Holiday - God Bless The Child
    Gustav Mahler - Symphony No. 5 in C sharp minor - 4th movement (Adagietto)

    Mate, he's English. He was born in Surrey and schooled in Cambridge. All the other members of Pink Floyd were from Cambridge, also.

    I was impressed that he close a Bosendorfer for his grand piano - most people would have asked for a Steinway.

    'All the Pretty Horses' a masterpiece. First of the 'Border' trilogy, however.

    I hate when a rock star picks all rock tunes, so it’s nice that Roger Waters chose such a varied and open set of recordings.

    I lived with Thin Lizzy's Roadies in west London 1973 and speaking of groupies the door never stopped knocking with beautiful hip girls wanting to come inside (Pun intended)

      He was saying he didn't sleep around a lot and dated, then married the girl who stayed next door to him but he did stray from time to time meaning he seen other girls behind her back and he regretted doing it to her.

      @@alexisbuchanan2028 thank you! I thought he meant the opposite, that he regretted not having lived a more rockstar life in that sense. At 25:04 for my life I cannot decipher his words, does he say "it wasnt a serious love"?

    Nope...definitely Scottish, it was a parody of the same accent he did for "The Happiest day of our lives" and as the interviewer is Scottish this is why he does it...you didn't listen closely enough.

  • @CLAudio-pn6qf
    @CLAudio-pn6qf Před 2 lety

    It's pretty disrespectful, especially coming from a composer/musician, when he chooses "Endless Flight from the movie Bable" (7:30) without bothering to mention who the composer and musician of the piece is.
    It's like Ryuichi Sakamoto choosing "The Great Gig in the Sky from a TV advert".
    Class always tells.
