- Siouxsie Sioux was invited to Graham Norton's program and the d!ckhead didn't please her desire to see kittens there. It is not very enjoyable to see our Ice Queen being treated like that. Siouxsie's presence makes it worth a watch. Enjoy.
Video originally from "Erasercuts" thanks!
PS. I appreciate all the supportive comments and I can see both sides (I really do). I heard a lot about them being friends and all, but there is something really odd about this interview. I think he over-did-it a little trying to make people laugh. I am sure Siouxsie was being an awesome sport about this. Just please don't assume the "negative" comments below against Graham Norton are all homophobic, as I love gays very much (I am sure most people who love Siouxsie would NOT be homophobic). He could've/should've treated Siouxsie better regardless. Watch this in comparison from around the same time 2002 (and you be judge): • Video
Siouxsie needs to be in the rock hall of fame , often impersonated never equalled.
Yes. They're too influential to be left out
Totally agree with you, great music and never heard music like that since.
She's a star and need including in THOF.🤞
A woman sidelined by cock rockers
It would be a horrible insult to place her in the "Hall". No way, no day. She's the bloody reason the "Rock & Roll Hall of Fame" sucks! She's the golden thing to compare the shit to!!!
While everyone was laughing, I love the fact that Siouxsie was actually listening to Curtis's music and digging it.
Fr everyone was laughing but siouxsie was invested and also I think his song was great but if he learned to tune his voice a bit I'd be better.
He like..he didn't bring out a cat! I mean, he's a cunt!! What kind of a bloody moron??? Dude, she's the closest thing we have to Cleopatra, and this daft wanker can't bring out a single bloody cat for Siouxie Sioux?! Is he mad or retarded??
She looks awesome. And she's goddamn patient.
@The Death March Correction: A fookin' ejit!
She's fucking Cleopatra!
Hearing the names Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez in a conversation with Siouxsie Sioux is surreal.
such a beautiful woman.
her face (structurally) reminds me quite a bit of Marlene Dietrich.
emma duncan More like Liza Minelli or Ellen.
Indeed!!!
@@emmaduncan2991 OMG I'm not the only one who thinks that!
Yes
He is terrible!! Horrible situation happening to a beautiful angel. She is so gracious. Such control not leaving the stage. She is amazing.
I can't bring myself to watch it.
He's unwatchable.
Yes. He has such little personality so he feels the desperate need to ham it up every second. It makes me cringe, this campy act.
FFS, seriously people!? It's Graham fucking Norton! This is his schtick. Everyone knows this. He has the best chat show on television. And all his guests have the best time.
@@dcrobclark He's a big fan and I think they know each other. but I think this was during the coke years. His show is so much better now.❄👃🏻🤪
So cool to see her smiling and laughing, even if it’s to be polite. I always loved her, plus she loves cats wow
She loves cats, shocking
I love and adore this woman. So talented and raw and still going against the grain.
This interview is about Norton's gimmicks and nothing about his guest.
A fucking self absorbed bell end always was a fucking twat of the highest order, still is, tosser
Glad to see her enjoying herself, but unfortunately an awful show to be on.
A bit childish interview, but interesting for Curtis experience in participating.
A bet She felt embarrassed about it all 😾
Honestly that seems to be the case for most of these shows. Same for Kimmel. Maybe Colbert is better? I'm not from the US or UK
Exactly. That's not an interview. What a wank
Absolute insult to his guest, who pisses all over his abilities any day of the week.
Loved when he called Curtis and was like "it's Siouxsie Sioux" and she mouthed "who" very playfully
she is absolutely beautiful
“I’ve waited such a long time to interview you, Siouxsie; now we’re going to watch cat videos!” WTF!?!?
Loved her before but the fact that she likes cats makes me love her even more.
I can totally understand why Siouxsie has a thing about cats. She was probably an Egyptian queen in a past life ;D
She's beautiful and talented and she also loves cats. My Queen!!. 😻😻😻😻
Siouxsie is a legend and rarely on chat shows - and he shows her a book of sock cats and calls some idiot on the phone.
In 1976 punk rock was the shot in the arm rock music needed on both sides of the Atlantic. Siouxsie should have been bigger here in the States but she is greatly loved.
Siouxsie is so humble and beautiful! Love her
I love Siouxsie so much!! Her music, and lyrics are truly amazing. She defined what the REAL Gothic culture was. Not this emo shit you hear now. She got through this interview so gracefully considering how rude the interview was. Siouxsie is in a class of her own. ❤
@dorothysboy1 I bet they have to deal with this kind of stupidity all the time in interviews.
Love your comment.
I was a Goth in Brisbane in the very early 80's when the scene was just starting here.
Its been a huge upset for me to see something I truly loved go to Emo.
We used to get the crap beaten out of us because of how we dressed and to see any of it go mainstream is just sickening.
Nose rings, tattoos, Doc Martins etc have all gone over and it makes me ill. Seeing yuppies wear full sleeves, I just want tyo punch them. My tats represented my class and the hard life I come from NOT JUST DECORATION.
I still have my piercings but never wear them now because they mean nothing.
For me we dressed that way because we wanted to be outcast from a society we did not agree with.
We were street kids back then so it was a hard life for us.
I have buried so many of my friends that died along the way through drugs and the hard life we led.
Im in my 50's now but it still means something to me. Love your comment.
@@elysabethpoodle6234I second everything you wrote, wish I had written it myself, same story here but in Rome, Italy, late eighties (we've always been behind, which by the way is often better for many things)
"Song For Mother" has got to be my new favorite song, well I guess song excerpt. Siouxie's face, her reaction, so funny!!!
Siouxsie is an attractive and intelligent woman. And anyone who loves cats is okay by me. Pity the sound quality on the video is crap and pity about Mr Norton making it all about himself.
ploody shit ok?
Siouxsie barely was interviewed. Too much time spent on the guy on the phone or talking about knitted cats!
he couldn't do it any other way, if he wasn't that self centred then he wouldn't have this type of show. He knew jack shit about siouxsie/banshees/punk etc.
I never watch this because it puts my teeth on edge. Even if a hero of mine (like Siouxsie) was on, I'd know they wouldn't get a word in or be allowed to talk about anything serious or interesting. It's all just a vehicle for Norton's high-camp, bitchy humour, which is absolutely not to my taste. (Same with Jimmy Fallon in the US - he's a funny guy, but it's not a "talk" show. He has some great guests on but the "interviews" are just a lot of p*ss*ng about)
What a fucking idiot ( him ) worst "interview " I've ever seen . Can't believe the audience think he's funny or entertaining
Poor guy. Made to humiliate himself in front of his idol
Yeah, that was deeply uncool.
That kind of thing can make sensitive people very depressed and perhaps do something drastic.
Totally agree. You should never knock someone who's actually putting themselves out there and making music that's real to them. The best I can hope is that he was somehow in on the joke or crazy enough to just not give a shit.
But that wasn't very nice at all. I think Siouxsie was very supportive in her reaction. If Graham let her speak a bit longer, I think she would have had a chance to be more encouraging.
Because he wasn't even that bad (for people that like real raw punk music). I'm sure a lot of famous musicians were much worse than that when they started out
Yeah I think there was a film about that
I believe a clown was the main character
7 years before TV programme was recorded I'd named one of my cats "Siouxsie". And round about the time of the TV interview I saw Siouxsie her in concert in London Just as the concert ended I had strong urge to get out the crowd before the rush leaving. I took a wrong turn somewhere and then I bumped into her near an exit on the way out, we would had wedged in the doorway had we not both stopped in our tracks. Sorry Siouxsie, I honestly didn't recognize you at that moment until the moment you'd spoke and thanked us for coming.
Look at her body language in the TV program in places - it speaks volumes.
Siouxsie is and always will be a goddess. She’s stunning. Love you my dear.
I really wish Sioux would re-emerge and do an interview.
no wonder she looked so bored. so much more intelligent, in depth things to discuss.
I hadn't seen her without the heavy eye makeup before, she has very pretty eyes.
1976 was the year I was born. No wonder Siouxsie are probably my favorite band.
I love you, Sioux! The Band was so excellent for years!
A non-interview. That fool Norton has a legend on his show and he hardly talks to her. Too busy being campy...
Why is everyone getting so pissed off about this, it's not an interview, she's a "guest" on an entertainment show that he hosts..they have a laugh and she gets to plug her tour dates/album or whatever! She might have even told him beforehand to not ask probing question's. He has some of the biggest stars in the world on his show, they have a bit of fun. Lighten the fuck up people.
Adore her utterly. Can't stand him. Utterly. What a quality mismatch...
Siouxsie has the most engaging smile.
Curtis either is oblivious to how unintentionally funny his songs are, or he's brilliant. Can't tell which.
Brilliant
I love watching her in interviews. She carries herself in a way that's youthful and wild without sacrificng sophistication and she's very articulate. On another note, K-Mart fucking slaps! I sincerely wanna find this guy's CD.
Thank you! 💜 - I used to watch G'N all the time but somehow missed this completely! Maybe not the interview some expect, despite such a rare & wonderful guest, but that was the show style, & Siouxsie's still as mesmerising as ever 💜
she is as genuine as her song ' spellbound ' sexy , articulate, and a fantastic presence, a true icon of British female artists.
Hardly sexy.
Wow! Watching Siouxsie in this interview was awesome. i wish the host would have shut up long enoughto hear more of her. What a smile😍😚.
I didn't think I could be a bigger Siouxsie fan and then she started talking about cats...😍😍😍😍
Look at Norton's hand grabbing the phone when Siouxsie was trying to talk to the guy
It's the Graham Norton Show, people. I adore Siouxsie, but I bet she knew what she was in for.
Of course. If she didn't like him we would all know it.
The negative comments on here are really perplexing. They obviously know each other and anyone who's ever even heard of Graham Norton knows what his show is like and knows what they're in for when they go on. This would be different if she was sitting there honestly perturbed. She's in on it. She's laughing and it looks genuine.
exactly!
I only know Graham Norton from a few TH-cam clips, and even I picked up on what his show is like. People need to get a grip.
Fuck off big nose
No one goes on his show without knowing what it's like. It's pure publicity, and good (as in widespread) publicity at that. But I can understand people who haven't seen him (especially from other countries) finding it annoying.
His show was completely crap then it got better and actually did include proper interviews later.
if you promise siouxsie kittens, you better give her fucking kittens.
Yes I agree!
She will turn you into a mouse for her kitties
That part with Curtis' music was just hilarious. Brought tears to my eyes:-)
I thought he was going to interview Siouxsie....?
This prick hasnt got a clue!
Her eyes even without the stage make up are just sublime 🖤💙🖤
My favorite part of the interview is when Siouxsie says "Polydor" and wriggles her hands and makes that face! LOL
Iconically legendary in the music world.
Those knitted kittens would have made a an absolutey fabulous cd cover for new Sioux music, IMHO!!
I have lived in France for fifteen years now... With many cats and it has been a nightmare.
But at least the locals have the honesty to tell me to #### off back to England!! Which is all I admire them for.
But... If this super-cool very feline creative cat-lover likes it then I think I need to check out Toulouse before I consider returning to England.
Respect to Siouxsie Sioux, she seems awesome. Best wishes from an Englishman making armour and music in a French forest. 🇬🇧😸⚒️
I recorded this on VHS and watching it the next day to find the tape chewed up - Thanks for loading great to watch again
It was great to see Siouxsie, but the host spent way more time focusing on himself than even letting her speak! He seems on speed.
All British TV talk show hosts do this. It's all about _them,_ not their guests. Jonathan Ross is the worst offender, sometimes his guests don't get to complete a single sentence without him interrupting. But they're all offenders, in this respect.
They are all offensive in that respect
@@aerialkate On speed - perhaps. Up himself - for sure.
Quite the paradox for a punk icon to be the one exuding class in this sad precursor of everything that went south with entertainment and social media. Siouxsie is in a category of one, way above the fray.
He was so nervous because, after all, it's Siouxsie😍
09:04 Norton only phoned up that guy to take the piss out of him and humiliate him! Totally shocking behaviour!
That happened every episode, to a different 'victim', it was a part've the show that made me cringe, hoping it'd be OK for the person on the other end - some of them did seem to enjoy chatting - rather than cruel, at their expense; Ugh :/
I don't get why everyone is hating her long-time friend. She used to spend a lot of time in Substation South, the gay club in Brixton where she was unpestered and drank with Graham and many others. Leave her mates alone.
Substation south was brilliant.
Graham is fine in this, but do remember - this is quite early on in his talk show career and he was still finding his feet. These days, I think he has the right balance of letting the guests shine, and intervening to keep things moving when needed.
True, and they were also old social friends so there is a degree of familiarity between them that we are not party to.
One of my favorite bands ever.
He is annoying and stupid but siouxsie is so elegant and composed just will always love her
Saw this years ago, forgot about it, then YT brought this up today for Siouxsie's birthday and it's just kinda perfect. Gotta love our Ice Queen!
He really is just awful. Fair play to Siouxsie for maintaining her dignity and poise throughout.
She's a goddes of goth music. I have been listening Siouxie since I was teenager and I am 55 years old and still listen. She's very intelligent, charming and talented musician and singer. Greetings from Brazil.
Quando vedo Siouxsie Sioux che allontana con il piedino la mano del conduttore del programma televisivo intento a leggergli le domande che avanza verso di lei mi fa' impazzire perchè molti dicono che la vista periferica e camaleontica appartenga a persone fuori dalla norma poi' quando fa' quella smorfia alla Polydor alla Johnny Rotten' è grandiosa perchè dietro c'e' ancora il retaggio della filosofia punk che in principio disprezzava le case discografiche perchè appartenenti a quel sistema conservatore Inglese che loro invece volevano combattere per questo Siouxsie Sioux sarà sempre una meravigliosa creatura frutto di quel movimento che dal 1974 al 1980 ha incendiato il mondo della musica moderna con il suo messaggio di protesta ed insoddisfazione giovanile.P.s. grazie Siouxsie passano gli anni ma la tua anima ribelle non cambia mai.
What a time, what a show. Did not know the value of the late 80's and 90's, but even 20 years ago and still today Siouxsie is great.
She looks amazing in 2002, I haven't seen her recently, I'm gonna assume still aging gracefully.
I thought I might find out something I didnt know about a very special lady.Instead mr Norton made the whole "interview" about himself.If he was witty or engaging fine but hes a total drag.Poor Souxie politely smiled and tolerated the ignorant git.
What a missed opportunity not to actually interview Siouxsie!! Graham was better when he got older.
I knew there was a reason why I have always loved her music
2002 was such a fun year.
I worship her
Me too
"No time Toulouse..." that's from Monty Python.
She is a very incredibly talented and smart chick. I still love her music and personality.
My goodness she is amazing.
That “K-Mart” song sounds amazing and also like Siouxsie a little.
Kmart has to be seen to be believed. It deserves it's own angry goth song, and now it has one.
OmG I love me my Siouxsie Sioux--The Very SWEetest ChILL...
What a disappointing "interview". Norton spent most of his time trying to be funny and mostly ignoring his guest.
Eh, is a comedy show. Well done.
Absolutely F all about the guest, at least she looked absolutely amazing which is more than can be said for him, this was complete focus on bollox instead of the lady who was in at the beginning and is still there, still killin' it. Mr Norton let's hope your career doesn't last half as long as SS cos you got f all talent.
He's an absolute moron of the highest proportion. I don't understand why someone like Siouxsie herself would put up with this display of juvenile behaviour bordering on psychiatric from this basket - case delusional twat. !
Just been listening to a tape of the Banshees' gig at Sheffield Uni the following day, 06/07/2002.
I agree with many other comments there's no interview going on here just Graham fooling around for ten solid minutes , hardly a question asked to the megaStar Siouxie. What a wasted opportunity .
Whenever Siouxsie is vulnerable in an interview it happens when she talks about cats.
Hilarious that interview is .Siouxsie had a truly an amazing time , she’s was definitely truly welcome …
Zappa said once that most pop music was made for 12-year olds. Those who know very little about 'rock' music think along very similar lines. In fact BBC luvvies like GN (nowadays) operate at the intellectual level of 12-year olds, usually in the guise of 'fun loving people'. Ditto jerks like Chris Evans, Jonathan Woss etc., no different from Brucey and the pantheon of light entertainment. Just think what GN could have asked Souxsie about. Like how they developed that very distinct music style, or how did they come to write a song called Metal Postcard? Each providing insight and information. But no, let's talk about fucking cats.
The things a Muse has to put up with this damn century...
What a nice woman to put up with this nervous tricky brat is just tiring
The Philly fan segment was great!
Siouxsie was invited on the show but she wasn't treated with the utmost respect. I doubt it if she ever returns. Seeing the sport that she is she was cool therough this interview!
Her patience is astounding
he is shocking, well done for not walking off, ❤ Susie x
By this point she has clearly aged and wrinkles have started to show. And yet she remains breathtakingly beautiful with them. Great counterargument for the issue some of society has with the looks of older people
A true lady, very easy on the eyes indeed.
I wonder what she's up too in 2021?
this GN guy has to have the attention on him.
What a buffoon.He could at least have some sense of decorum for this royal papal visit.Siouxsie looked magnificent as ever.
AHAHAHAH what kind of pathetic panty sniffer are you? She's just some middle aged gal. Get over it dude.
Well she s better looking than your sticking mom that s fir sure
Grew up with my Siouxie. Absolutely epic xx
It’s so mean how the crowd was laughing at him :/
he's certainly improved
Look at Graham! So young! And the frickin Devil Wears Prada phone.... But calling Curtis with Siouxie is just awesome!
IDK. How many times does Siouxsie get questioned about her career? She’s said so herself that she dreads talking about the past. She seemed to thoroughly enjoy her time with GN.
They were having a few laughs.
Damn she's still hot
Used to have a massive crush on her...
join the club.
Still do.. but used to, too.
Still do!
