- Filmed for Dutch TV in a freezing cold New York City in 2000, which explains why Matt is sporting a large Russian hat - bearing more than a passing resemblance to a tea cosy!

When he sings this is the day...An uncertain smile in a beaten generation.
From the vantage point of 2024, watching this great documentary shows that Matt Johnson is a great writer and musician, a keen political observer and also a prophet: Beaten Generation, Global Eyes, and his comment about the danger of corporations.
I`m so grateful for this docu.
I like Matt Johnson so much - Been listening to his music for over 40 years now and feel quite attached to him - He`s like a mirror or my higher self talking to me in his music & lyrics.
"Soul Mining" is still my all time favorite album ever!
💘💘
❤
Ever since Soul Mining I’ve been following Matt’s fantastic music. It has always been a part of my life from teenager to middle age now. What a gift to see HIM this year in Amsterdam, can’t wait !
Matt’s a complete one-off, always producing quality music & thought provoking lyrics which are often prophetic.
I’ll never forget the MindBomb album which was released in 1989 when UK pop music hit an all-time low with omnipresent Stock-Aitken-Waterman type crap polluting the airwaves. I was already into decent Indie stuff back then but he opened my mind to many things at a time when I was studying GCSE’s & A-Levels, but he taught me so much more 💙
I thank the Lord I found Matt... he's kept me sane, it's good to know other's are out there that are the same... I'd love to spend time with him... I've got tickets to his ensouled concerts... I pray he stays healthy, safe and blessed... always and amen.
How could anyone know me ? When I don't even know myself ?
I found The The in 1984, since then I'm amazed how true Matt's music has been to the male experience of life over the years is as I grow older. The The is the music sound track of my life.
Some people mention the Fab-4 when talking about quality music….so do I. The Fab-4 are four albums released between 1983 & 1993: Soul Mining, Infected, Mind Bomb and Dusk.
Great upload👍🏼👏🏼
Matt... such a talented man. Awesome music, phenomenal lyrics. Thank you for sharing your life.
Seeing The The in November 24 - last saw him in 1991 in NZ for Mindbomb - My god how experience has accumulated in the interval. But The The has been a constant over all those years.
I can't say strongly enough how much I agree with the views of Matt. Perhaps more than any other artist over the years, The The has influenced me and my world view.
Great documentary of a great artist.Amazing to hear Matt say he feels he has yet to achieve his potential,when he has written songs like Perfect,Lonely Planet ,.Good Morning Beautiful,Heartland etc etc.Was listening to Mindbomb yesterday,amazing how he predicted World events of today 35 years ago with such accuracy.Never heard any other artist with such hard hitting lyrics,allied to instantly catchy rhythms.
New York Dates? There is a need for The The more now than at any point
I came here to write the same thing. Brooklyn Steel was a great show!
WOW!! We all are so exquisitely happy for you!! I'm a true fan and have been listening to the music for years. My favorite of all time songs, " Uncertain Smile " !! You look great and y'all sound fantastic!! ( I'm from Texas )!When Myspace first appeared, I went to your page. And I wrote to you how f'k'n awesome you are. And you wrote back!! I am a musician and song writer. Blessings to you and yours!! 🤠💘💮🏵️ Jo 🌟🍀🪷🌺
Thanks for sharing this! ❤🎸✌
The the have been with me throughout my whole life starting at the age of 13 ,now 51 and they're still as much, if not more relevant in my life than ever before . Love you Matt 💞
24 years later, 9/11, 2008, 2016, Boris, MAGA, pandemic.... Matt is still a very relevant artist.
Thanks for sharing....I continue to find MJ's music and lyrics thought provoking, beautiful and deeply personal which have given me enormous joy over the years....Thank you!
My pleasure!
Hi Matt...Can you please add a date or two in Singapore?🙏 I'm a New Yorker living in Malaysia and will definitely come to see you.
Thank you Matt for being Matt❤
Yessss...Matt❤
This documentary is a great mix of live and you explaining your process. I find it fascinating how humble you are...but yet so comfortable in being who you are and not fitting in. I have felt that my whole life, and I have embraced it, but will embrace it more fully after hearing your words... thank you😌 You are an inspiration in my life. You have been since I discovered your writing in 1983.
Can’t wait for the gig in Brisbane later this year. Haven’t see you live since 1989.
05:00 = Spot on.

He's right about the difference between melancholy and depression and their effects on creativity.
Actually, he appears to be right about a lot of things he's mentioned in this documentary 🙂
Booked my ticket and can't wait for September.
I can relate spent 20+ years looking out of one country and have spent 30+ years looking back into the old one and don't like what I see.
All roads lead to Rome..
So awesome, to be reminded. Saying out loud; Oh, yes! The The! Like a light being turned on! Thank you
More please Matt ❤ 18:18
"Empty headed but open minded" - great title for a song!
this guitarist can do it all, 12 string, baritone, electric acoustic. big shoes to fill and he nails it.
Excellent. Looking forward to Edinburgh... it's been too long since Glasgow Barrowlands

Thanks for this upload
Sickest band name ever 🤘🏽
Please come to Helsinki
I’ve forgotten about The The and I was playing giant and stuff All last summer
Man’s a genius
Wish there was another Manchester date on the tour...:(
Thanks Matt, is From Dusk Til Dawn coming by chance??
Just heard his new song Cognitive Dissident and its a real grower, his commentary reflect the times we live in as always which is why I wish they were a bit higher in the mix....
I want an extended version, tbh - could really get into that groove.

Back playing gigs in Sydney
I seen a poster
Is this true ?
👀🇦🇺👀🇦🇺
It is
See ya in Portland, right next to the American elections.
First
An artist who got worse with every record, but still interesting...
Mind Bomb worse than Burning Blue Soul? Surely you jest.
