I gotta respect and admire the fella. He's never wallowed in the sanctimonious BS. He's the one that has truly never "sold out". Not to "the business" and not to the holier-than-thou brigade. A true gem.
this guy has a vast vocabulary and in every single interview I've seen about him. hes always well spoken and has a lot of culture. very intelligent man. respect
Ian Oliver because he grew up seeing n living poverty n was strengthen by it...gets alot respect from this Irish man...we need more honest straight foward humans,not lying plastic cheating greedy animals...(no offense to animals mind you)..
yes so do I , it's not a bad thing and he is you have to say, but he does not always get it right , you have to think for yourself as well, don't take what he says as the truth , it's not always .
@Midnight Dreary a bit over the top millionaire ? I doubt that very much, if you put all his assets together house and so on, you might get somewhere near it, he's well off , and playing in a band can be very hard work, it's not a coal face , but it's grueling and stressful and difficult at times, few of us in our working life ,have to deal with trying to keep your mates off smack and so, but yes , I do agree with you , that in this interview clip nothing much was discussed , honest is cool, but truth is better and he doesn't always tell you what is true , just what he thinks is ...
I absolutely love Johnny! Out of all the stars, he is my favourite and the best! famous person! Admire his honesty and integrity. Such an intelligent and fascinating man with a heart of gold! Respect! ❤❤❤
Johnny boy ,it doesn’t take the brains of rocking horse to work out the biggest crooks are, have and always will be in high office .When ordinary folk make money unfortunately it is often accompanied by hypocrisy. The poor have existed since the beginning of civilisation, there is more inequality trying to make something which is unequal equal ,man has for the most part been a selfish bastard .
michelle88960 - Bono in front of 50,000 people at a concert, slowly clapping his hands: “Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies!“ Voice from the back: “Well stop clapping then you cruel fucker!“ Was that the time he left his hat in Australia and had it flown back first class in a jumbo jet to America?
A lot of rich people and celebs evade taxes, yes, but giving money to charities isn't the wisest way to 'evade taxation' as that money is still spent and there are still rules around how it is being claimed for deductions. It's not that simple. I fucking hate how complicated the tax systems are, frankly, but that's why we have accountants, I guess.
It’s not always evasion it’s a charitable tax deduction. And every U.S. citizen is allowed to deduct for taxes. The rich just have more to do it with. 🤷🏽
YOU have to LOVE his honesty ..........awesome how fresh it is too hear an pure honest person With common sense who is grounded .....much respect for this man
Mr Lydon, my humblest apology to you. In the 70's I didn't understand you and now I realise you were years ahead of your time. Talking sense. Not many do. Thank you.
Love and respect this mans honesty... I live the same life and people tell me I have no filter... I tell them if u don’t want the truth then don’t ask me the question ❤️❤️ xxx
Totally agree can’t stand Bob gelded bono and sting now this man speaks the truth to please no one he speaks the truth those ads demonstrated a great sense of British humour
Rock on Johnny for PM and true what he said about those live Aid thieving mongrels like Geldof & company who stole all the cash for themselves none landed for the intended poor.
A lesson to us all about being grounded and having morals. I was never really a fan of the SP however I think P.I.L was/is a brilliant vehicle for conveying things John and other members wanted to.
To be fair to Phil Collins, he initially believed the idea of performing in both continents to be a bad one, but was told he wasn't the only one and that several other artists would be joining him. Given that, it would've been a big deal and raised further awareness of the cause. He found out too late that he was the only one doing it and was of course very angry about it.
BONO OPEN YOU WALLET, ITS BIG ENOUGH LIKE YOU EGO! It's like things like this, in a world full off plastic fake shit, it's more important than ever to serish people like this, frontal, honest and simply who don't care about money that much, just to survive. It's my all time hero, and when he dies I will cry almost as much when my dad did. His honesty, his bravery just to say wherever e sis to do it. NEVER CHANGE JONH LYDON, the world need your honesty
Love him. Fuck the world. He is real. He rebuffed the criticism for the butter ads by saying he used it to get P.I.L. back touring. Fair enough. How can anyone down that??

A Trump supporter, though.
Very loyal too it seems, an unusual trait these days.
@Anderson Cooper You couldn’t wash John’s gym shorts 🖕
@@Imnottapinata But it seems like you definitely wash John's gym shorts with your tongue.
@@damienholland8103 so what? He can support whoever he wants
I love him. The more I learn, the more I love. God Bless John Lydon, a purveyor of truth with such a big heart.
Respect to John Lydon. A real man.
I just love John - he's open, down to earth, no bullshit, says it as it is. Well done, man, you're the best! Much respect!!
Ian Oliver because he grew up seeing n living poverty n was strengthen by it...gets alot respect from this Irish man...we need more honest straight foward humans,not lying plastic cheating greedy animals...(no offense to animals mind you)..
He is truly one of a kind and the best of kind.
One of the few transparently honest people in the entertainment business - ever.
Respect to John Lydon. Tells it as it is.
except when he doesn't , he tells it how he thinks it is, which isn't always the same as, how it is.
He is a smart guy
I love his honesty.

One of my favorite people. Brutally honest; you have to respect that
He's on point about celebrity charity work .....And he wrote satellite poss the most wonderful piece of noise ever put on vinyl !
Honesty always prevails. Plenty of truth in this interview!

Blimey! You are so correct Johnny!!!!
Totally agree with Johnny, celebrities who give to various charities make a point of it being a PR thing and the money given is a tax evasion.
all wealthy people
michelle88960 - Bono in front of 50,000 people at a concert, slowly clapping his hands:
“Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies!“
Voice from the back: “Well stop clapping then you cruel fucker!“

@@Johnny-sj9sj Pity he didn't leave his fucking ego in Australia.

Authentic John.... always a breath of fresh air!
The more I listen, the more I like him
What an incredible man. He changed the world no matter how disillusioned we be become today. He did his part.
YOU have to LOVE his honesty ..........awesome how fresh it is too hear an pure honest person With common sense who is grounded .....much respect for this man
Too right about Phil Collins and Bono..well done Johnny!!
Mr Lydon, my humblest apology to you. In the 70's I didn't understand you and now I realise you were years ahead of your time. Talking sense. Not many do. Thank you.
I agree, I am the same....
Yeh . Jonny has a vast rhetoric. And his experience and opinions too . He stands out in interviews . His mind is vast and eclectic x
He's got it 100%
I love you John, I discovered this yesterday
Well said Johnny boy absolutely superb
If Bono really wants to save the world in that dreary way he puts. Bono, open your wallet!
he is just so honest
so honest so true,,,,,awsome
As usual, a very honest and straightforward man.
Much respect for John...
LOVE John Lydon. He is the real thing.
The best, what a guy.
I love this !!
Hi from Italy.
Bono has made near 100 million in charity work and given less than 2% of it to charity.
Holier than thou image? LOL
Some proper truths spoken here by John (Y) Great upload, thanks for sharing
Love and respect this mans honesty... I live the same life and people tell me I have no filter... I tell them if u don’t want the truth then don’t ask me the question ❤️❤️ xxx
Great interview
Bravo!!!!
Totally agree can’t stand Bob gelded bono and sting now this man speaks the truth to please no one he speaks the truth those ads demonstrated a great sense of British humour
He is the GOAT. He has just expressed everything i've been trying to say for years. But was unable to get it out. Great!!
This man is fantastic
He is fabulous
I like what he’s wearing. He looks good in this interview.
Great to watch as always. Go easy on the Strummer comments but. Respect is key to great minds - and both Strummer and Lydon fall in there.
My favourite person 💕
I love you John !
He is just great!
Honesty really is the only policy...God bless Mr Lydon:-)
I love you John
I love him ❤️🌻
Top top man, has a beer and a chat and talks sense 👏
Every word spoken by John is factual
A lot of truth
The actual truth spoken
Speaks the truth
Love the comment of Irish band
John for prime minister, awesome guy
I fuckin love this guy, man
So much sense from John
Rock on Johnny for PM and true what he said about those live Aid thieving mongrels like Geldof & company who stole all the cash for themselves none landed for the intended poor.
He swings his balls and knocks over Bono and Bruce Springsteen.
A lesson to us all about being grounded and having morals. I was never really a fan of the SP however I think P.I.L was/is a brilliant vehicle for conveying things John and other members wanted to.
John for PM
God Bless John Lydon
So agree !!! Especially regarding Bono !!!!
Johnny speaks the truth.
He speaks Johnny truth.
Good honesty is what I hear.
John Lydon = The Best
Such an erudite, articulate and likeable man.
Something about this gi I like.
What a guy!
“Why didn’t he just play the drums down the telephone and save the money?”
I’m dead! F*cking hilarious.
Go on John :)
Crazy man
hounestly i take his opion over anyones haha just the best mindset for anything
Bono open your wallet lol
'Its at least as big as his ego' Shots fired by John! Bloody honest man
respect!
Dale Cooper - Bono! You must be having a laugh! He’s worth $400 million and leaves it in the bank. What a total hypocritical wank-stain.
Jon Hill - And put those children down !
@Dale cooper bono just wants to be another geldof oooo look at what I've done
@@guylawrance2216 Yes, bit worrying given John was so outspoken about uncle Jimmeh! maybe they first met at an orphanage?
❤️
Go Johnny!
He's a smart guy
As he Been Knighted?
Ere, ang about, da rest of em ave!
Dear me - Rambo 💖
Where did you get that Dr Evil jacket mate?
where can i find the full interview? thanks.
He's so intelligent. Hope him and his wife are doing well.
John "Rambo" Rotten IS a wice Guy.And very sarcastic as always. Thats for sure 😎
This is a very big human being.....the real deal
Johhny Rotten became the most thoughtful man in all of Rock, who would of thought all those years ago?
yes you could be right but, his thinking is not always correct .
@@heighwaysonthewing is he guilty of wrongthink?
Wow
Make a new hit John...
He is not boasting about his charity giving. He merely mentioned it. Hardly the same thing.
Gawd he’s an old geezer just gratuitously waffling on now, I miss the youthful Lydon who kept it short & sharp

John is…fuck?? What word? He’s Badass. His anger still feeds him. He’s honest.
He wrote a book about it, I’m reading it now, it’s titled, Anger is an energy. Aloha
This bloke should be an Aussie, would fit in so well
Johnny Spotten
Love him. Fuck the world. He is real. He rebuffed the criticism for the butter ads by saying he used it to get P.I.L. back touring. Fair enough. How can anyone down that??
