Yes, reminds me of this guy I used to paint houses with. We called him pistol Pete. He was a big alcoholic, he would have the shakes every day, all the time yet when he was ready to paint a straight line his hand was perfectly straight, steady and accurate.
As a fellow scouser I'd like to add that Ian has definitely had a few bevvies before this interview. Honestly you can actually understand most of us, most of the time.
so the jist is he did an interview years ago and morrissey was there. Ian bunny was leathered and ordered duck while veggie morrissey ate fish ? and mispronounced chasm
With some additions, a fuller transcript, for historians of the future:"Here's another one for the Morrisey fans. I had to do an interview with that chump. ...uh, I'm larruped again in this one. We did it in the Adelphi, funnily enough. [inaudible] 82, 'who's this [forhesion??] get?' talking in an extremely rare accent. So I was larruped on the ale big time, pissed like a bastard. And I was being interviewed by this interviewer for... I'd ...never heard of this fellow, you know. And uh, waffling on (all night). i said, 'if I do this co-interview with this no-mark - and in those days, he was. He was on the up, you know. and I ordered the biggest piece of meat. like, I think it was duck. I think that's from the thing on the mouth [Mimes duck's bill]. And he ordered fish, and I'm thinking, '___, that's hardly vegetarian... Unless...even if you stuff it with full of peas. And it had it's head on, the fish. It was made up, and the tail. and I said to him, 'is it alright if I eat duck?' and he went, 'yeah, it's alright.' I said, 'do you want a pint?" and he didn't want one. And we got out of the interview and we...and I was asked about Liverpool and Manchester, and I said I love Manchester groups. I think the Bunnymen were always more suited to the Manchester kind of thing. And then he goes, I hear him - I'm all over the shop, bladdered - and he goes, [attempts accent] 'there's a kind of terrific chasm between Liverpool and Manchester.' Chasm! It spoils it for me. You know. I can never read any books with chasm in it ever again....Which is handy because I don't read books."
I'm from Lancashire and I can just about make out what he's saying. His song The Cutter ('spare us the cutter') was about him cutting up the phonetics in words and him not sparing us by doing it.
I saw the Bunnymen a few times in London in the 80's - none of us knew what he was saying to the audience between songs - the other guys in the band were laughing - I think it's Mac's idea of a joke !
Oh Mac. I´m a fan but really? It feels like one of those stories that get riper with time, like a good cheese. Three pints later it was probably: "Morrissey tucked into a bleeding steak, mispronounced loads of simple words and admitted the Smiths were shite and that I was the greatest singer in the universe."
This is really funny. I love when Mac the mouth does his best Morrissey impression. It goes from Scouse accent straight to a kind of posh snobbish style of Morrissey.
I was able to make out just barely, that Ian does eat food and that he and Morrisey have spoken. I admit I could be assuming too much, I had to fill in a lot of blanks!
Ian, he goes to Ozzy's speech therapy classes 🤣 but I think he's a genius any way. Why? Because you can understand every fluke'n word out of him when he sings. And that is some deep, compassionate, manic street preacher rambling right there my good people. 👍👌🙏
Marco Salgado just what I said....what the fuck.....there's them that breed tha come form there....i think he was speaking english to is that yorkshire accent...oasis and and johnny marr and the rest of them talk like that to..the dude from the jam..
It was kind of a funny interview. Even if I only understood 25% of it. I'm Mancunian and I usually have no problem understanding Scousers. I think it was a bit naughty of Morrissey to talk about the 'chasm' between Manchester and Liverpool given that MCulloch had been quite nice about Manchester. I _suspect_ Mozzer was being somewhat dismissive...
@@warmswarm is new wave even the right term? I consider his music post punk, or at least certainly those classic first 4, though I guess even on ocean rain that’s less the style of it. I mean, I know it can get a bit BS to talk like these genres are set in stone, but I at least consider post punk and new wave to not be the same things.. it’s arguable that new wave isn’t a genre even, but then I’m saying all this as someone born in 1987, so I wasn’t there when these things were actually happening. At any rate, he’s not even the best post punk innovator, even if I think they’re responsible for a couple of the absolute best post punk albums and singles. They didn’t innovate, so much as they perfected some things. That’s my opinion, anyway..
Let's just take a moment to appreciate whoever figured-out where to put the beeps.
Brilliant!
Im a Brit but I think he just invented his own language.
Lmao!
It's alcoholism language
i used to think i could english...
Spilshin Achmi Oone
He's making fun of Morrissey I think even though I barely understand lol
How can someone sing so beautifully but I can't understand a word he's saying?
TOTALLT
TOTALLY!
Liverpool
He is a scouser. It is worse than some Scottish dialects. ✌️
Your fault, for not speaking Scouse.
"That's hardly vegetarian even if you stuff it full of peas." 😆
There's no point in censoring this with beeps because nobody understands a word Ian says anyway.
agree!
canuck21 Right. That's hilarious!
lmao,, I was thinking the same thing watching that, They should beep everything he says, because no one knows what he could be saying
🤣🤣
"....and, of course, I was very, very drunk !"

What???!!! Yet when he sings, his English is crystal clear. Strange, indeed.
But he's not singing he's talking
Jazz Purr that was the point, hence the YET when he sings.

@@jaspurr77 - You don't seem to understand anything do you.
Rough voice.
If he would sing what he wants to say in these interviews, I might actually understand him.
I didn't relaise Ian McCulloch was Norwegian.
Okay, that was funny, I'll admit.
Swedish...
Danish I'd say.
All Scousers are Vikings, you silly sausage
What in the hell is he saying? Sounds like the duck is still in his mouth.
Scousers rise up
No shit!!
And stuffed full of peas.
Duck or?
@@Daniel-lh2zg ya that’s it!
I'm a Scouser and i hav'nt got a clue what he's on about either!
😂😂
I can understand and I'm from Manchester.
😂😂😂😂
That is funny. After murdering some language for several minutes the punch line is he didn't like the way the guy pronounced "chasm".
Thanks for pointing out the irony.
"Chasm Dave ? "
“The guy”.
🤦🏻♀️
Thank you! That's rhe word I was trying to understand above all that gibberish 😅
Not only the pronunciation but the nerve of anyone using the word 'chasm' in his presence.
A cautionary tale, kids.
As a fellow scouser I'd like to add that Ian has definitely had a few bevvies before this interview. Honestly you can actually understand most of us, most of the time.
This is EPIC.. I'm crying right now... Could not get a word of what he said... Love the Bunnyman!!!
Think you uploaded this video backwards, buddy.
I adore Ian, I do....but that made me laugh out loud.
It's like he's talking in cursive
"And I was very very drunk"
My oh my, last time I've ever heard such mumbling was when I saw Brad Pitt playing a gypsy boy in Snatch. Bewildered.
Greatest interview ever
All I heard was “biggest piece of meat” and “peas.” Got it.
Even my star trek universal translator can't assist here.
It;'s not just because he's Scouse. He's hammered
Definitely usually is! Cheers to Mac!
so the jist is he did an interview years ago and morrissey was there. Ian bunny was leathered and ordered duck while veggie morrissey ate fish ? and mispronounced chasm
Got it. I'm still trying to work out what the problem was.
I listened again - it's a story about a big piece of meat, some duck, and peas. I've got in now, never mind.
Ahahahahahaha
Pretty much.
You missed out Morrissey's fish.
That's 2 minutes I'll never get back.
'He ordered Fish, that's not vegetarian, even if you stuff it full of peas'
"Fish is hardly vegetarian, even if you stuff it full of peas..."
The gods have seen how high he flew. And have turned him in to Rab C Nesbit as a punishment for audacity.
😂
Ian truly is a gem.
Brilliant
Absolutely true!

Thank you! I was very curious about the transcript!
Thank you! Marble mouth talk translated.
"get" = git 😂
Just been to see them and had to look up this interview again. Classic
I think he calls him a "phoresian git" haha, what a creative insult
I have no idea what he just said, but it was awesome.
I guess those beeps are covering up dirty words ? As if most of us could tell the difference ?
I'm from Lancashire and I can just about make out what he's saying. His song The Cutter ('spare us the cutter') was about him cutting up the phonetics in words and him not sparing us by doing it.
aye, "by the happy laws"
I find this really amusing lol
(larruped = really drunk,
no-mark = useless person,
all over the shop bladdered = not thinking straight, very drunk) !

The Scouse is strong in this one.
I heard the word fish at some point

Wtf did he just say? Was he speaking English?
He is speaking Liverpool,. It is it's on dialect of English. .
This is really funny. I love when Mac the mouth does his best Morrissey impression. It goes from Scouse accent straight to a kind of posh snobbish style of Morrissey.
Thanks for the translation Bunny Man!!
"closed captions not available" - you don't say...
I didn't know Ian spoke German.
I don’t know what he’s saying but I love him so much 🥺
Same here since I first saw videos & hear him sing! What a fox!
I was able to make out just barely, that Ian does eat food and that he and Morrisey have spoken. I admit I could be assuming too much, I had to fill in a lot of blanks!
must be permanently bladdered
He admitted the Bunnymen were self-consciously cool. He got that right.
Depends on your definition of 'cool' i guess , they're no cooler than other bands
".....An accent exceedingly rare". Love that reference to "In My Liverpool Home"
Bluar, blaur, blaur.......MASSIVE PIECE OF MEAT!........bleaur blauer blaur......
Um..well said, Ian!
This is hilarious.....think Ian may have had an ale or two.
I wish we had a transcript. Would love to know what he thinks of Morrissey. From what I gathered, it would appear he's not much of a fan..
Now who among us could argue with that?
I understand him. He said "Ahoodah suh vah lasha ah moh doh sut lundun shazam kasbah corn flakes lucky charms cantgitdisdickouta mah mouth"
The comments are the best😂😂😂
Ian, he goes to Ozzy's speech therapy classes 🤣 but I think he's a genius any way. Why? Because you can understand every fluke'n word out of him when he sings. And that is some deep, compassionate, manic street preacher rambling right there my good people.

Ian McCulloch - The true influence for Rowley Birkin QC.
Bloody hell! I just wrote the same thing, almost.
Um...even my Rosetta Stone app just gave up.
what did he say?
Lmfao!!!!

69crafty, interviewed Ian after a gig few years ago. On the piss
yet still gracious with fans.

I think it was a bit naughty of Morrissey to talk about the 'chasm' between Manchester and Liverpool given that MCulloch had been quite nice about Manchester. I _suspect_ Mozzer was being somewhat dismissive...
So basically, he's telling us Morrissey ate a huge fish. I wonder if Moz (zealous vegan) ever denied this.
@Cherry Red Indeed: but Morrissey has claimed for decades to be a vegetarian, or vegan...he never used the word "pescatarian".
I’d understand if he just sang what he was saying the whole interview
😂😆🤣
Same here! That’s a great comment!
Well that was insightful
I appreciate the transcription (or was it translated?). Perhaps someday it could be dubbed into English.
Best to let him speak with his guitar. Incidentally, he was the very best of the New Wave innovators
Notta Victim - No he wasn't.

I got almost every word this time….lmao. Love you Mac. 😂😂😂
Thanks for the translating. Otherwise I wouldnt have understood a word other than "bastard".
Morrissey was eating fish was he now? - yeah Ian still like you say you were bladdered....
I'm laughing so hard. They actually beeped out some of his words when you can't understand any of them
That’s his Scouse comin in e de wordin ey mighty accent Gwed Ian ❤ u loved mate
"Subtitles/closed captions unavailable"
Lover lover...un temon de Aian mcccullon
Can't tell if it's Morrissey he dislikes or just his use of the word 'chasm'?
He called him chump. What do you think?
I like him. He's honest.
....well that was anticlimactic.
I'm brazillian and had some difficult to understand...
Is this like the Twin Peaks episodes where they are in the Red Room and speaking backwards?
Thanks for the transcription! :S
I turned on subtitles and it just displayed question marks.
This heartwarming story is the real meaning of Christmas....
Subtitles on the video thought fuck this
Could listen to Mac all day
"i asked for it with the thing on its mouth"
...love it...
I completely agree.
I'm Ian's twin brother and roommate of 40 years. I have never understood him. Except when he sings in the shower.
Love this 😂
I was able to make out Morrissey ate fish other than that I need a translator.🤓
Can someone transcribe this please? He’s speaking Vulcan
never met jim morrisson to know but i did meet ian mac , and he was sound very much so
He just seems like an old drunk now
saw him/the band 2 years ago and it was still killer
Do what now? Stuff it full of peas? Shazzum spongiform what?
At the end of the day Mozza was claiming to be a veggie and should not be eating fish so he may sound pissed but he's right in what he says.
So does he like Morrissey? Did he mention anything interesting?
There IS a chasm between Liverpool and Manchester...... Liverpudlians can get proper drunk!
i thought my english level was extremely poor listening McCulloch, but guys, your comments below made me feel much better
I'm an Oklahoman, and I understood nearly every word he said. It wasn't that difficult.
That's because they don't speak English in Oklahoma.
Bull Shit! I'm British and I can barely understand him. This guy can't talk very well.
going to see the Bunneymen on 14th May at the Ritz In Manchester
