- Indie music legend Liz Phair rocked the music patriarchy back in the 1990s and in her new memoir she describes what it was like to be a young female musician in a male-dominated industry. She sits down with “CBS This Morning” co-host Anthony Mason to discuss how she feels about her first record, all these years later.

Man, I love her music. So honest, raw, unapologetic. I hope she can love herself as much as we love her.
Exile blew me away. I was 14 when it came out & was the 1st time thinking women could be badass! (I know there were badass women in music before her but that wasn't my adolescent years lol)
"I am like a bookish, nerdish introvert who just doesn't want to be invisible or irrelevant." Wow. So well put, and I bet most of her fans can identify with that.
Exactly.
I have seen Liz Phair perform and met her a couple of years ago in Chicago. Liz is a very good musician and is very nice and humble too
Liz is one of the most underrated singers of the 1990s.

Wrong. Dead wrong
@Igloo Zoo
Wrong is objective.
@@robertcubinelli4961 since when is wrong objective?

Always....didn't you know ??!
With Liz it's always been about her songwriting but I will say her singing now is better than it's ever been.
I always adored her "awkward warbly voice." It communicates intensity.
Even through her insecurities, horrible experiences, self-doubt and all else, to me, Liz has been a SUPERNOVA from the second I got my grubby paws on that first album. I grew up in the 80's, listening primarily to hair bands, hard rock and metal. I had a crush on the girl who worked at the local music store who knew my taste in music and was watching me suffer through the downfall of that genre. She suggested I give Exile in Guyville a listen to see what I thought, since I wasn't really feeling the whole grunge thing at the time. Yes, this was literally my first indie album! I'm still to this day a huge indie fan. My music store crush may have moved on to memoryland, but Liz is still jammed in my house!
The song "Super Nova" (from late 1994 "Whip Smart") is a great song!!!
Exile In Guyville is an all time classic. 5 🌟 LP.
That is undeniably the understatement of the year! An absolute classic - it’s my desert island album. If I had to listen to one album for the rest of my life it would be ‘Exile in Guyville’!
Its a great CD, but its no Rumours or Song Remains the Same. Lets give credit where its due. 20 years from now, few will remember it. In fact, Liz sorta fell off the face of the earth for nearly 20 years.
I second that emotion.
@@alexnutcasio936 They sold truckloads of Rumours but it was not long before you could find piles of them at the used stores along with "Frampton Comes Alive". I think the earlier versions of the Mac stand the test of time better, how many songs like "Jewel Eyed Judy" are there or the simpler, pretty tunes Christine did like "Remember Me".
She’s still gorgeous!
This is what the Me Too movement is trying to get rid of - age shaming women or in your case, immediately going to the physical and superficial and praising her looks. People don't lead a compliment to a man of a certain age "you look great!"
Trey I mean my goodness! A “simple” compliment gets taken out of context! Absolutely unnecessary....
Trey tell me about it!
@@OasisEnLaLunna She IS still gorgeous. She's like the MIA of this music.
I dont think praising her looks objectifies her, how could it anyway.
She is Liz Phair goddamit. I dont think anyone's here for the gritty side of the story.
We all connect to her through harsh lives and powerful music that transcends it.
We're here to see how human she is. How can you then charge with such motives.
This is irrelevant. And yes people comment on men of that age the same way.
This is a social thing. Peace to you.
@@OasisEnLaLunna yeah okay whatever
I really loved the songs on Guyville when it came out. Tried to turn about ten people onto it, but not many of them liked it. Seems like that was in the early days of CDs, which was cool for this record. Pop it in and go straight to my fave song for that day. Pleasant memories of a rockin' album!
I just adore her.
Her art and her honesty.
I want to mate with her.
You adore her farts?
Omg I’m sooooo excited for her book I love her music I’ve been a fan since 1998..
French Fries I don’t know if you’ve read it yet or not but it’s fantastic!
Robin Parker I actually met her 2 months ago in Hollywood!
French Fries she was very cool, right? I met her at the vintage vinyl show in 2003 (somehow someone actually posted the entire 55 minute set on RUclips, I’ll put the link down here for you) and then once again backstage at a little venue in Philadelphia. She was very sweet, as I’m sure she was with you.

Robin Parker here’s a clip of my friend at her autograph signing enjoy ruclips.net/video/Z3a2-GJd8DY/видео.html
I love the fact that she's so nerdy and bookish talented and beautiful total package
I feel the need to read her book after watching this. She’s a pioneer in music- and I only have one of her albums in my collection. What a true artist!
She's aged like a fine wine. Both her looks and her voice.
It's crazy I could relate to her as a 16 year old then reading her book I could relate to her now. She was always herself as hard as that was. My idol always.
I must have listened to both her first 2 cds like a thousand times. When she performed in Amsterdam it was epic.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her !! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful as ever 😍
Big blue eyes! Gorgeous and talented too!
The book is fine with some remarkably honest passages, but not much about music. She has a two-book deal, so I look forward to the next one with hopes we hear more about her life in music.
But Liz Phair is a wildly talented singer songwriter who is sadly underrated, so any way she can perhaps reach a wider audience is good.
I always loved her since high school and college in the 90s.
Nice time. She is clever and deep. And I like the way mr. Mason does his interviews, insightful with a class
Great interview.
Yes it was Sean. I have seen other videos of celebrity interviews and truth be told some of those interviewers could learn a thing or two from this guy. This is how to conduct a proper interview. Be courteous and respectful to the person you are interviewing like he was to her and don't ask them questions about their personal life or things they regret doing in their past. Keep the focus on their work and career accomplishments. More importantly, do a little research ahead of time so that you will know something about them.
Beautiful.........still........4 ever......
I'm excited to see liz and Alanis in September.
I saw her in 2004. She put on a damn good show!
Waiting for her second book ... because Horror Stories was so good. LP can sing and, girl, can she write.
LOVE LIZ, always look forward to her next recording. Fun songs. Uncompromising music. Nobody sings songs like she sings. It's awful hearing what happened behind closed doors. She's a survivor.
Been a big fan since " super nova ". Have had this secret little crush for her for years. Thanks for the memories Liz
I love Liz Phair, her entire discography. I came to Exile in Guyville a little late. I was in college in the early 2000s and I discovered all kinds of music I had missed by being just a little too young when things came out. I mean I was 10 when Exile came out so I couldn’t have listened to it then. But I love Liz Phair still today, all of her music.
Liz Phair is great - I am a longtime fan. But I want to give credit to Anthony Mason, who has become, IMO, a really great music interviewer. This is a great interview because he asks great questions.
Just an amazing talent. The music industry is toxic. Keep going, Liz.
She'll always be my star.
I love memoirs I buying this now
Jesus, Exile in Guyville was the best record she made, Whipsmart 2nd. One of the best records of the 90s. Sometimes the polish and professionalism doesn’t make great rock ‘n roll.
Absolutely love her work.
Didn’t know the book existed but just ordered it, before the 2 minute mark of the video.
Amazing
zzz Amazed that you’re amazed
STELLAR
I’m ordering it now
Was…is…and shall remain…AWESOME!
Happy Birthday Liz Phair
I love her and her music
What are the songs featured in this segment?
I LOVE YOU LIZ!!!!!
The jargon is off but she's one of the few women who have aged really really well
Somehow I think she's hotter than she was in 1993.
In the most polite way possible I would def smash
This version is hotter like u said
Known liz since grade school.
Dont see much of each other nowadays.
Been acouple years, and decades before nola.
Liz is like a fine wine.
Better withage, to be nerdy cliche'
Her voice doesnt record well, her looks dont photograph well.
Glad to call spazzy old Liz, mine own.
"Polyester Bride" was on the mic CD we gave to our wedding guests in 1999. Exile blew me away in grad school
Yay! Girl power!
Liz is awesome! Let her do her thing!
The humble and the meek are the best. She is so far beyond me I can never grasp.
Love love love her
So beautiful and so talented
Wow, shocking moments that she shared.
Was Liz born in Connecticut or in the windy city of Chicago??
IIRC the former.
It was THE greatest album of the '90s.
Getting into Exile In Guyville this week, so I'm still at that fantastic stage where, to me, it's great new music. I'm gonna enjoy it while it lasts.
Who are these appalling fuckers that offer career advancement in return for a feel-up? You almost feel embarrassed to be male sometimes . . .
I have an LP collectoin of all the "classic rock" from the 60s/70s but I listen to that less and less frequently. I find her tunes more accessible and emotionally engaging than anything else from her era. Along with old-school rockabilly, Buddy Miller and some of the gals reviving country recently, her songs stay cued up on my player. The business is weird, to my ears most of the "big stars" put out high-gloss candy that gets old pretty fast. Well-chosen, simple guitar chords, nice melodies, can't beat it. He's from a different "school" but check out Buddy's "Love Grows Wild" for instance.
Love Liz! Music of my 90s. #ImaGenXr
Way to go, Liz!
Very honest assessment of herself.
Liz had an a Phair
you're a genius.
I'm going to like your comment THIS time, but don't let me catch you doing that again.....lol
Does she have anything to say about Jim Ellison from Material Issue?
Interesting pn many levels.
2:12 to 3:30ish is a very important
She reminds me of Nancy Wilson.
Interviewer looks so much like Bob Saget!
She plays on Fender Mustangs … that’s hot
I find myself forced to grudgingly admit that I deeply admire this woman.
Oh...
I have questions...
B e s t songwriters and singer and writes
the greatest album of the 90s
When will I fall out of love with her?
Nobody like her - she came out with something unique
In the shadow of Alanis Morrisette but, more talented
There would have been no Alanis without Liz Phair
An advertisement for a book. Could have been a better interview.
They were handing out record contracts to anybody who wanted one.
It becomes concrete.
Never heard of this girl
Debut was a huge splash but has been MIA for years now.
@@I_Have_The_Most_Japanese_Music yeah I’ve listened to some of her music since to see if anything jogged my memory but for some reason I completely missed her back then!🤷🏻♂️ I’m blaming alcohol 😜
@@wexfordrob LOL. It would be easily understood tho because she was an underground indie phenomenon. Later on "Supernova" got some play on MTV, and then her most commercial album (which destroyed her career) put two singles ("Why Can't I" and "Extraordinary") on the charts.
She’s still hot.
FFS, Liz is so cool, but CBS just makes rock so pretentious. Her stuff is powerful AF, and they're just peeling onions.
Lol I love when the say male dominated ooooookrrrrrr
The world is cold and complex but with the mind and heart of Christ and the power of God. Some how he helps us come out clean and better
imagine writing such a pavlovian comment on the interview of one of the greatest independant geniuses of modern music. I just feel bad for you man. But you're probably happy as you are so i feel better, bye.
“Indie music”?? That’s a thing?
Was in the 90s
Wah Wah wah... go count your money and enjoy the fact you never have to work a real job.
Watch out Gentile women
Why do I feel like she brings upon herself?
Who titled her memoir? I enjoy celeb autobiographical titles with puns or are at least a little clever. My Phair Lady or the Phairest of Them All would have been cool.
One hit wonder with pedestrian good looks
Could everyone stop using the word underrated!!!! So sick of it. It says more about the commenters lack of knowledge than anything else.
Same. She was big back in 90s and got lots of positive attention and amassed a lot of fans (myself included) who adore her. She's definitely not underrated. I think he word they're thinking is somewhat "forgotten" and when I say that, I mean by the new generation (gen z).
I know! I get so sick of seeing that damn word so misused and overused. It's like "literally," "racist," and my personal favorite (not) --- "fascist."
Invisible? Never....
what da got for a quarter ..
I think most of the music in the last 30 years is by people who are full of S.
5k MONTH AINT BAD LOL
zero f***s given
I want to read it,the weinsteins
She skipped the Funstyle chapter of her life when her music started to be unlistenable.
Yawn.
"musical patriarchy"😂
you've never read the context of exile in guyville? Pretty much the scene was dominated with males in this pseudo clique known as guyville, where they thought to highly of themselves, sang about their hookups/sex and constantly demeaned phair and other women. Phair wrote the album, her "Exile in Guyville" while singing about similar subject matters in a more ironic, brutally honest way.
That's what they meant with musical patriarhy.
I like to be discreet about personal issues.....
She looks..... different.
Shes aged naturally andblooks great
It might just be that she's older, but I think I get what you mean.
She's in her 50s now
She has always been a badass. Gorgeous af too but mostly badass
