Been to a few Shane & Popes back in ‘99-2001 as well as Pogues- To this day I haven’t been to a show matching the energy and commradery in those rooms. It took Shane an hour to get on stage, but once on, he was off the hook. Still don’t know how he kept up the drinking for so long! I needed a week to dry out after each show!
It ain't water ..its gin......haha Shane you legend .....5 % blood ..95 % gin...100% heart n soul...his band mate put his head through the window for the interview..what more ya want
Trying to exploit the drunken condition of Shane McGowan. His genius outwits the "journalist" who is "interviewing" him, despite Shane being three-sheets to the wind.
@stigmaweb If somebody believes they are Shane MacGowan when drinking, then they obviously have bigger problems. This interview is certainly not a "bad thing". It's a fun interview with a great poet!
liver disease through poitin Tommy ?......if that's so I've already drank my death warrant this past 30years !......but still here ....it's a still life for me !.
I fucking love this guy:)id say hes a very sensitive man ,when the interviewer said to him it was a hard interview its like shane thought about it and was wondering why.he went into trance.just my take on it.maybe hes not sensitive at all maybe he jus dosent give a fuck...
Anyone would be annoyed getting interviewed straight after a concert and getting told to sit down. Shane never grew up and was treated as special since he was a kid and was a prodigy even got a scholarship for one of Englands most poshest private schools
I am so glad this full clip existed! Haha, that's such a great interview, god how I love Shane, and Tom of course! R.I.P. Tom! The interviewer seems like a prick though...
Maybe this was a tough interview for you Luke but, boy, I had pissed mi self laughing more than ever. No stand up comedian could match these guys. Wonder if they're still alive, are they?
when he smashes his head through the window on his way out to puke had me laughing like crazy haha i think shane is still alive but tom, the big guy, died a few years ago
funny man, just maybe where I come from, floor-to-ceiling windows aren't lining every room so listen here hun collector, i'd prefer to spend time with Atilla. don't know who he is? hmmmm
The Person Interviewing Shane Shouldn't Have Been Near Shane While So Drunk,It's Shameful Because Shane McGowan Is A Loving Person,A Song Writer That No One Can Claim In Truth Isn't The Best Song Writer In The Last 100 Years, He Has Garbage Bins Filled With Brilliant Songs That Have Been Written And Never Song Nor Produced, Shane Made It Big In The Music industry And After He Is Long Gone People Like Myself Will Listen To His Music,Watch Thd Great Interviews And You Can See The True Shane McGowan, A Brilliant Song Writer And Musician, And So Loving To Everyone. I Hope He Lives A 100 More Years,And This Interview Was Terrible Because Shane Is A True Christian And Even Says It On Stage Once And A While,I Remember When He Was In Japan He Said He Isn't Worried Because He Won't Fall From The Grace Of God While Singing. God Bless Him And His Wonderful Mom And Dad Are In Heaven Now I'm Sure Watching Over Their Loving Son.
Who picked the idiot for the interview ? Jesus Christ ! Its Shane McGowan ! No secret he's been drinking since birth ! Lol ! Love ya , ye' ol' chap !! Carry on Shane ! Carry on !!
it's a sad thing to see someone so fucked up and pouring more gin. Harsh on the body, It would have been better if he was never interview and just told call us when you sober up. I think the world stood by and watched his self destruct
Now he's gone. I finally realise the sadness this man so evidently carried within his vulnerable, beautiful soul. He loved to party and have a sing-song, but when everyone went home or grew older, there was Shane looking for his pint of gin, staring into nowhere. No one can tell me he was happy. He was lonely, shy, scared, and troubled. Who will ever know the source of his troubles. People drink as a side effect due to a problem. Rarely, is it the actual problem. It almost always comes along secondary to the problem(s). Sad.

OMG how did I only find the full interview now. My god pure fn gold. Bless Shane
Greatest video I ever seen!!! That man wrote pair of brown eyes what a legend
I'm Scottish 🏴 Shane makes me proud to be Irish 🇮🇪
Shane won in the end. It's his stage and always was.
1:28 best "WHY!?" I've ever heard.
Idc if he’s still a drunken old man, he’s still the best songwriters I’ve ever known.
He was a drunken old man when he was a wain
Shane u are great man 🏴🇮🇪🏴😎👍
''us and the blacks is the master race'' that's class
Nice! Been waiting to see the whole interview.
RIP Tom..
I love how you can see Shane get progressively drunker as that big gulp of poitin hits him

"of course I'm proud to be Irish"
"Why?"
*Shane snaps out of it for a second* "WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHY???"
"..Because we're the master race"
@@HaplessHypnagogic the blacks and the irish

God bless Shane
R.I.P. Tom McManamon

Shane McGowan is a hero!!!
Do you really know what a Hero is ? I think not
We Will Always Love You Shane💚Forevva N Eva😊💚
Seen him at Edenborough ! Drunk and roll baby !! Guy is a all around good dude !!
Shane's not a 'pop star' - when you're long gone and buried, they'll still be singing his songs...
It ain't water ..its gin......haha Shane you legend .....5 % blood ..95 % gin...100% heart n soul...his band mate put his head through the window for the interview..what more ya want
whenever ive gotten this drunk it just feels like ive been lethally poisoned
So true!
after a long of Googleing -> THE MODERN LOVERS- GIRLFRIEND
Damned good song!
How is this dude still alive????
How is Tom McAnimal so drunk, like, he's on a whole new level of drunkenness. He dont know where he is lol
Trying to exploit the drunken condition of Shane McGowan. His genius outwits the "journalist" who is "interviewing" him, despite Shane being three-sheets to the wind.
The "song" Shane sings at the end is called Girlfriend by Jonathan Richman. This version is a bit different though (but much better in my view).
It's a kind of magic!
funny! I love all that refusing to leave when the interviewer is taking the piss
Happy paddy's day my irish blood brother and sisters across the world
god this makes me wanna drink
continue to sing good songs Shane . Never mind the media.
@stigmaweb If somebody believes they are Shane MacGowan when drinking, then they obviously have bigger problems. This interview is certainly not a "bad thing". It's a fun interview with a great poet!
3:40. awesome. hahahhaa. and yeah that song at the end is great :D
yep they buried him with his banjo in the coffin !...I remember !
Long Live Shane! Maybe he just needs alcohol to breath instead of fresh air, as we normal people do. :)
buen viaje, borrachín inofensivo. reservame un lugar a tu lado. nos veremos pronto!!!!!
It is very sad to see someone like this, great talent sad existence being out of it all the time.
I hurt my head im goin ow tha door i needa spew up hahabahahaha rip tommy mcanimal

Im goin outside i needa spew up
Ti Di ding Ti Di ding Ti Di ding
Comes back in with poitin
Ah, the Poitín!
Che pietà
You're drinking water right now? Haha!
Could the amount of alcohol that's passed through Shane's brain even be measured?
NASA couldn't even calculate it
Luk Alloo is a worm!!! Hope he will remembers that for the rest of his life!!
Doesn't get much more rock n roll
The Irish are the most powerful people in the world! Only the people who are enlightened Know this .. ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️💪💪💪🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️
who is the interviewer?
anyone who celebrates shane's alcoholism is pathetic, hes an amazing songwriter with a terrible flaw dont glorify his alcoholism
Tommy says they’re drinking Poitin. A near psychedelic Irish potato moonshine
Rip
@Silknitter87 oh baby thanks for sayin that!!
RIP
Legend's RIP lads 🍻
liver disease through poitin Tommy ?......if that's so I've already drank my death warrant this past 30years !......but still here ....it's a still life for me !.
What song is Shane singing at 2:28?
Dr. Swoovermarker Jaggerwinston Danny Boy
@@davidoftheglen3447 With some alternate lyrics, I suppose.
Well, the inverviewer is Belgian. and it there wouldn't be an arm wrapped around shane, he would collapse. :-)
Why would he mind? the interviewer isn't german.
Shane is taking the piss out of him. And he doesn't even know it.
did he bash his head through a glass wall?
strokesfan1107 yep
Thinking it was a mirror actually
I fucking love this guy:)id say hes a very sensitive man ,when the interviewer said to him it was a hard interview its like shane thought about it and was wondering why.he went into trance.just my take on it.maybe hes not sensitive at all maybe he jus dosent give a fuck...
"The master race" to a German interviewer. That's precious.
the interviewer is belgian
I love how the interviewer keeps on embarresing him
whats the name of the song shane sings in the end?
Danny boy
@@kjelllagerqvist9204 That's the middle song. Also dunno the one in the end.
They got really a bad slosh.
Anyone would be annoyed getting interviewed straight after a concert and getting told to sit down. Shane never grew up and was treated as special since he was a kid and was a prodigy even got a scholarship for one of Englands most poshest private schools
th Poguses, it's un veritable group !!! a = tradition, this is a verity !

Shane is still with us although his health is in question.He will always be alive in my heart............
+Patrick Callahan is shane still drinking? like hes been drunk 24/7 since the 80's.
Should have asked him how many beds he's pissed over the years
You tell me how many you have first
Sorry ma hehehehe muttley laugh
As great a songwriter as Shane was in his day, that doesn't justify him being a boorish drunk now.
funny man, just maybe where I come from, floor-to-ceiling windows aren't lining every room
so listen here hun collector, i'd prefer to spend time with Atilla.
don't know who he is? hmmmm
the POPES?
Pogues?

He’s 💯 correct! Ireland is the Aryan Race 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
I concur
Don't think you understand what an Aryan actually is mate

Bye Bye!
Is it just me or does Shane sing better when he's drunk?

What's the difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish wake ?
One less drunk at the wake.
Doesn't look like fun type of drinking, drinking 10 points is fun but drinking pints of gin turn you into a invalid
Machtig!! Hell satan!
