@@culturevulturepapi8948 Fuck off - He stole some samples which he said he'd do. We've all done it. His second album was considered better. I actually prefer Original Pirate Material. Luv and Peace.
2004 was my favourite ever year! The MDMA levels in pills went up strongly again. I love The Streets and Blinded By The Lights is one of the best tunes (and videos) I have ever come across. Mike Skinner, you're a legend mate! ❤
He's right, huge parts of Manchester have been gentrified. And now they're doing it in Salford. The middle classes don't like looking at the working class though, which is why Manchester and Salford are being turned into metropolitan cities for the middle classes in their apartment buildings while the working class get pushed further and further out of the cities.
See this has always fascinated me. Why should the working class just have the God given right to stay in one place because they are on a lower income? Surely it's the middle and upper classes who pay more tax? Also there are thousands upon thousands of less than privileged people at uni. Your opinion is rather dated, I must say.
@bubbacalling the working class live in these areas for generation after generation and they were real communities with people growing up their cousins etc living in the same area. Then the middle class move in and gentrify these areas, and pushing the working class out and splitting all that up, for what? Cheap houses or because they want to live in areas that had a bad reputations, but they want a Starbucks popping up there now and somewhere to get avocado on toast.
Mike Skinner has never been comfortable during live interviews , especially daft morning interviews on national breakfast shows . Man’s a legend , why are people are so negative such as the first few comments on here
He doesn't have to do these kinds of interviews if he doesn't want to. He's here to plug his album. I don't know why people are so quick to defend someone from the mildest criticism. I'm sure there are radio stations he could plug his album on if he thinks morning TV is beneath him (and let's face it, it probably is. The typical BBC Breakfast viewer isn't his demographic).
Because the first two albums were good, but there's nowhere really to go with endless British cultural observation talk-rap music. I just don't buy into him being a 'genius' etc. More a moment in time really, filling a gap in UK music in the early 00's.
😂 I don’t think those interviewers were even listening to what he was saying! Mike Skinners a proper artist, I still regularly play the first 2 albums in full when I need to get shit done. 🔥
That's rubbish. He was awful. He wasn't listening to what they said. When they asked him a question he would answer something completely different. Something totally boring and nothing to do with the questions. It's a shame he was so bad because in the early naughties he was a genius, a spokesman for a generation and his book in 2012 was outstanding!!
I have never seen a great Mike Skinner interview, I get the impression his brain just works at 100mph and he flits from one thing to another. Absolute musical legend though. The frustrating thing is he came on to promote his film and didn't really say much about it.
@@Millennial_Mike how is it blatant ? Every man and their dog has some form of whatever nowadays 🤦🏻♂️🤣 I think he’s just trying to be clever and comes off like a div, everything doesn’t need to be labelled nowadays
Car crash interviews tend to go viral - it's the only reason I searched for it. Pretty good tactic to be fair. Does come across as a bit of an arse though
The questions these news reporters have asked him are absolutely rubbish. If your gonna go to the effort of having the legend on your show get better questions, as a fan of the streets from the beginning i could have written better questions/interview for you. Regardless of the rude hosts, its great to see Mike back on our screens.
he wasn't that bad and he was not harsh to interviewers who weren't bad either. This was the morning show FFS, it was fine. Probably he's not that comfortable talking in this format.
@@PaulMorrisseyIRL Why, because he didn't conform to the ideals of the framework? Just because you don't understand something doesn't mean it should frighten you
i know people who work for him. transporting him to gigs etc . they say hes got huge drug/alcohol problems. very rarely sober. you can definitely see here its taking its toll on him. physically and mentally.
TH-cam randomly decided to show me some The Streets Classics, still fucking classics: 'I make bangers, not anthems Leave that to The Artful Dodger The broad-shouldered fifty-one percent shareholder You won't find us on Alta Vista Cult classic, not bestseller You're gonna need more power Plug in the three-phase and the generator Crank it up to the gigawatt'
I think it was a jab at the BBC being part of a whitewash of Salford. It’s always been a very working class area and all of a sudden they want to pretend its a middle class waterside hub
Theyre trying to interview someone who bbc viewers dont care about at breakfast time. Mike doesnt wanna be there. They dont care who he is. Its never gonna be great.
What an absolutely terrible interview. He answers their questions with something completely different to what they were asking. He looks depressed and confused. He came across terribly. It's a shame because his book was a terrificly interesting and engaging read!
Used to think Mike skinner was the bollocks back in the early-mid 2000s, just seemed like he was one of your mates down the pub or that you’d meet on a night out, now he just seems like a weirdo 🤷🏻♂️
@@NelsonVanDweller nah I know plenty of blokes who were just same with the drugs and alcohol and none of us are weirdos, just older but still the same old geezers
First two albums and the tracks he did from 2001 - 2005 are masterpieces, he’s had some decent songs here and there since but definitely ran out of stuff to say once the third album came round

I am always happy to see Mike Skinner speak! The Streets make such great music.
Mike Skinner is a total genius. His jack the lad persona is so believable... but he's an eloquent, intelligent, polite and estute musical businessman.
He was absolutely awful in this interview!
you know he stole original pirate material, hence him never doing anything like that since......he had to payout for it

Brilliant its those two presenters who clearly dislike each other. And Mike is expected to be comfortable.
Nothing wrong with that he coped with poor questions well.

I love his first 3 albums and listen to them fairly regularly,he's had a few good tunes since but definitely dropped off
Definitely rocking the just got up eyes after a session, alongside the new teeth of his that aren't necessarily flattering.
Who cares
Blimey , Mike's put on a lot of timber.
Middle age spread 🤣
He is older, that’s what happens
Not sure these 2 were the best for Mike!

wake and bake Mike?
