I met Marianne when she and Mick Jagger visited Frank Zappa at his log cabin in Laurel Canyon, Hollywood. They sat in the kitchen and discussed politics with Frank and his wife, Gail. Mick spoke and Marianne, not about to be out-done, spoke too, he spoke, she spoke, he spoke, she spoke, about politics, like a double act. But like most women in 1968, Frank's wife, Gail, sat in total silence while her husband held court. The contrast was remarkable.
They were still young an if you watch interviews of marianne or any of the stones they seem so inmature ,of course when you are young some people think they are very bright and more inteligent than anyone and you want to eat the world ,but zappa wife was probably more wise not to spoke,and you have to remeber they were even arrogant ,and feeling that his sweat was better than anyone else, when people praise you in a ridiculous way thats what happen ,If you can't control that better don't be famous,imagine a boy and a girl in his 20s talikg about politics, hahaha come one its just like that, ridiculous
I like her and I think that the press treated her like trash back in the 1960´s and 1970´s. I think that it takes a strong woman to come out on the other side from many years of drug abuse and yes her voice sounds very different from when she was young, because of her lifestyle back in the 1960`s and 1970`s. Back in the 1960´s she seemed very innocent and naive, but as she got older and had her own demons to battle, she became a stronger woman because of her experiences with her drug abuse, eating disorder and the fact that she was homeless at one point in her life. I respect the fact that she got her career back on track and right now she makes the best music that she`s ever done before. I have listened a lot to her new album and its a great album from start to finish. :)
😇 I have been a fan and a great admirer of Marianne Faithful since her first great hit As Tears Go By. I wore my hair like her and I dressed like her. I memorized all the words to all the songs on her first two albums. Marianne Faithfull has been with me forever for I am forever faithful. 😎 I would love to meet you.
Skeeter NYC agreed, she had a fresh vulnerable innocents that she valued as well as her opinions on what life was bringing her. This whole package has been in charge. Of her life from the beginning even if the choices were few. Love this woman.
It's true all these girls claiming sexual harassment for a touch on the leg and things like that it's a joke. If they were actually raped I can understand but a touch on the leg come on.
It's to easy to forget the reality of all those women destroy by experiences of rap, living alone with kids cause the father vanished and often beat them beforr, it's like if you said that black ain't got no maters in USA.
@@dollyrawlins5470 An uninvited touch on a woman from a man is uncalled for. Who the hell do they think they are that they can go around putting their hands on women whenever they feel like it? Men need to keep their fking hands to themselves, period.
ome of her 60's recordings are totally underrated.Check out Sunny Goodge St /Something better/Is this what i get for loving you/Tomorrows calling/In the night - baroque pop production classics - i think better than Nico stuff...
I love you Marianne, so completely, & am so glad you haven’t succumbed to the Brexit racism and isolation that too many in England have. But as a once ‘pretty clever girl’ like you were & like you referenced here, you would do well to actually read the stories connected to what’s being called #MeToo. Perhaps your being a “pretty clever girl” that had, despite your addictions, the power of fame & power of powerful people, it protected you from certain powerful predatory men. I love men, I love & have had the good luck & brains to have primarily surrounded myself by “good men”. But I think that’s what makes some women of a certain generation having a knee jerk reaction to dismiss the MeToo movement. That’s unfortunate. You see it as a fundamental rejection of MEN period. But it is NOT. The men I surround myself with have ALWAYS been an ally and do not treat women the way too many men in power positions have. It is naive to say that a smart ‘clever girl’ can just SWAT AWAY horrible predatory men in power. This is an untruth. Smart & clever girls DO get destroyed by power predators. I hope you reconsider this and do not stay locked in a defensive posture about the very real horrors that too many smart clever girls have faced.
@Quincy Breed Totally agree with you! #MeeToo was a movement only against white men, who do not engage in mass harassment and mass rapes against women and children. A completely insane movement that was typical of a cultural Marxist attention gathering campaign. Does Faithfull think that the EU is the same as Europe? Really? The EU is a process of destruction and developmentalisation in Europe. Modern colonialism and imperialism aimed at demographic change.
You have probably never met anyone who agrees with Brexit and choose to get your opinions from the BBC who go out of their way to find extremes in order to divide us . Brexit has nothing to do with little englander mentalities or 'racism' ...you dont even know what the word means . You should pay a bit more attention to what is actually happening with in the EU and what they have planned for the future instead of worrying about your holiday arrangements
@@marmite2500 yeah I understand the EU is planning to do horrible things like fighting climate change and improving consumer rights. So glad we’re out (sarcasm)
WHO WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT THAT WIDE EYED BEAUTIFUL CHILD REALLY ,WOULD GROW AND EVOLVE INTO ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING ARTISTS BE IT MALE OR FEMALE WITH AN ICONIC VOICE HONED BY LIFE EXPERIANCE TRULY AN AMAZING ONE OF A KIND ORIGINAL ,LOVE HER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She even looks more and more Austrian as she ages, Lotte Lenya all over again, in talent also. I can't say enough about this woman, I first saw her perform in Boston at the Paradise in '83...
Disgraceful to be so hateful towards 18 million 'people like that' just because they had a different opinion. Shallow, arrogant and dismissive of her. Shame.
Oh dear Marianne.. Not "out of Europe" but out of the EU Govt. Also, "an age old prejudice"? From some Brits, but there's also prejudice from some French towards Brits. EU (Govt) is not a country Marianne. Her head will be spinning after Frexit!
Gosh Citizen you are a bore! It was a terrible mistake Brexit. The biggest Brexit fan Farrage got married to German and got himself an EU passport - how genuine l!
Not being part of the EU does not mean we are not Europeans . Europe was there long before the EU which is a political construct. Please Marianne get the facts ...and not from the BBC or Guardian
4:15 How much did they pay her to say that I wonder? Or are people in the music industry under some kind of stranglehold - tow the Common Purpose line or else?
Joss Ambrose - Most of us, you also I think, are not paid for our views. You reduce your integrity when you immune others, it's a cheep easy shot. Please stick to facts, not implied insults.
Jesus….why do you have to say “old lady?” How rude. She’s still human. Women are still beautiful and vibrant at any age. You could’ve just said “she looks like a nice lady.” 🙄 Some people have no freaking tact
Jorge Gomez ....so, there are no people of other nationalities who live outside their place of birth or land of their own ethnicity?.....what bullshit!!
@UCGsEMN-zUHP2K2AZAQRmBqQ - In all honesty, you could vote for Lord mother fucking Bucket Head ,and the same draconian,Orwellian politics will be placed upon us.

Only to be struck with , the familiar, foreboding lies that engulf all of politics ,perpetually. Whether you are Left or Right ,and all inbetween,your vote counts for very little. Unfortunately, the government plays the divide and conquer strategy,very effectively. We as a united people, have the power to shake politics to their very foundation's. Alas, we are too busy fighting between ourselves,Left to Right,fascist to Bolshevik. Unfortunately, the population is so indoctrinated and entrenched in their views that I can see very little changing. I don't think it matters who you vote for,the hidden hand of governance will always prevail in it's nefarious ways.
@@victoriagodley5277 - Thank you Victoria, for your perspicacious and erudite comment. Your vote means nothing,politicians are all the same,corrupt and governed by external influence which they have little control over. There is no Left or Right,in reality,it's just one amalgimation of all parties,giving you the illusion of democracy and a meaningful vote.
Renata Ostertag Really what is an elderly person supposed to look like? I'm Marianne's age and and haven't had the fortune to be quite so " debauched " but I,m not an Oil Painting either. Get over yourself.
I adore this woman ❤️
I don't
Adore her, too

But like most women in 1968, Frank's wife, Gail, sat in total silence while her husband held court. The contrast was remarkable.
I think that Mick has always been unfaithfull but in an other way respect women, it's a very paradoxal man.
@@Methilde Indeed. I hope Jerry Hall is happy.
@@paulinebutcherbird It's seems she is strong enough and she stays in good relations with Mick about the children.
@@Methilde Pleased to hear it. In fact, I don't think I've heard a bad word spoken about her anywhere anytime.

she had/has great style
She has turned into a wise old lady. I love her.
Ha ha ha wise ha ha ha
I like her music since the early 80´s and I think the english Press treated her nasty in those days.
That started in the late '60s after the famous Redlands bust.
Skeeter NYC agreed, she had a fresh vulnerable innocents that she valued as well as her opinions on what life was bringing her. This whole package has been in charge. Of her life from the beginning even if the choices were few. Love this woman.
The UK press was and still is absolute pond life.
She looks like a nice old lady.
@@glamsky3257 omg, how about saying just “nice lady?” Calling her an old lady is fcking rude. God some people can be so ignorant and tactless
How did I reach 62 without knowing anything about this woman but her name, Marianne Faithfull?
A true artist. Wonderful woman.
A phenomenon. Respect.
Thank you, I find Marianne utterly interesting and very smart.
love how she comes back from 1979 broken English with some bloody good Albums Give my love to london And that
iconic Classic Broken English
Interesting. Her insight about the "me too" movement. Her comment about a "clever, interesting" girl could handle it.
It's true all these girls claiming sexual harassment for a touch on the leg and things like that it's a joke.

A true lady of culture, and open mindedness. I live too abroad and agree with her about.

Did she have a stroke? There is something different about how she is speaking?

She has many health problems.
