Why this doesn't have a mill views and loads of likes just speaks to how bizarre the modern audience is. They truly dont understand what REAL TALENT is. Right here, ladies and gentlemen. This man is truly a living legend. One of the last great British songwriters. He has transcended time and space and just continues to act from his heart. And that is what makes his art GREAT. Show respect, everyone to this man right here! Don't make em like this anymore.
You are absolutely correct. If the Talking Heads, REM or Bob Dylan were a new band today, their albums would be DOA. The music business is now about identity politics more than the music. People are sheep when it comes to music. 90% would rather listen to Lizzo than RA. I feel bad for those people.
Love Richard Ashcroft! I am in USA & being in Verve Facebook groups...I feel RA is much more well known & famous here in America than people realize! There are thousands of us over here! ❤✌
I love Richard so much followed him for ever, and excited about going to the Kentish Town Forum tonight to see him in concert. What a great interview he is such an honest guy.
I Love Richard, since the Beginning with the Verve. He is a real Genius Musician, Songwriter and a true to heart Man. An amazing Person! Forever and You know it...🙏
I love that Richard is still wearing wallabies (shoes) like me. I've worn them since I was a kid. Love Mr Ashcroft. Beautiful man. Cheers from USA . Love Robin
Every single word it was said did happen in my life too . The way music changed my life was like that . The Carpenters was the first group that came across my life Sing A SONG
I’m sorry but nothing comes close to any Verve records! A northern soul and Urban Hymns is 2 of the greatest albums ever made. hard to top that really.
Can someone please explain what he means when he is talking about other band members saying one thing but he really knows the truth and what happend. Does he mean the reason for the band splitting up and personal issues within the band or something sinister?
Ask Ian Brown - He supported them in 2008, and mentioned Richard had his own dressing room and the rest of the band were squeezed into another. Says it all really.
I love the Verve and I love Ashcroft but his ego is off the charts. You can see why being in a band with him no matter how successful must have been a pain in the arse.
Thanks for keeping it real Rich, exactly mainstream has gone backwards, check out ma channel for a new indie artist, merry christmas to all the believers ;)
Richard, you're from Orrell. A solidly middle class, semi-rural area. It's frankly laughable that you constantly make out you're from a deprived background.
There are better singers out there, but there's something very authentic and real in his voice, and if you listen to the lyrics in albums like Human Conditions, he goes a lot deeper than many musicians. I'm like a fish with legs, I fell from the tree I made a rocket (check the meaning), I made a wheel I made a rocket (check the feeling), I swam the ocean (check the meaning) I saw the moon (say a prayer), I seen the universe (and beyond) I see you (check the feeling), I see me (check the meaning) That's my reality And while the city sleeps we go walking

It's criminal that he made the best album of the year and barely gets any recognition (especially outside of the UK) and the same goes for 2016!
He hasn't though has he. The lyrics are junior level and the songs are pedestrian at best. Hearing his songs puts in the mood to do the washing up.
Neil Tikva even in the UK he’s become severely underrated since his Verve days
Why does everyone keep saying his ego is too big..? I just see a very analytical and cool man...
Same here, never felt the ego comment. He’s highly intelligent .
He's as grounded as you or me the man is a legend
Bittersweet Symphony and Lucky Man are timeless tunes and my favourite songs 😉
Bellissima.. l'ascolto sempre💯
Best singer songwriter the country has EVER produced i applaud you 👏👏👏👏
I love Richard Ashcroft,he is highly intelligent!

Love this guy! Whether he's speaking or singing I love hearing from him. He gets it!
I love this guy...

Legend
richard ashcroft would give his right arm for charity. great bloke. 'judas' is me fave
Please tour in America
Hawaii needs you
Que brillante Richard, un genio, un 💎 con tu 🎵🎶. Thank you.💕😘
Absolutely true: music industry has been in wrong hands for too long these days 24:13 AND they just think about Money and not quality .
This guy should do stand up
@4:32 Richard has inside knowledge of this. The world needs more mainstream breaking stuff like "Love is Noise" (I'm being sarcastic). Total rebel.
Que voz maravilhosa ❤❤❤
I’m sorry but nothing comes close to any Verve records! A northern soul and Urban Hymns is 2 of the greatest albums ever made. hard to top that really.
No it's not.
totally agree ,this is music, on your own ,rolling people ,weeping willow, lifes an ocean etc i could go on
It’s like going to the moon if you’re an astronaut. How do you top that?
sorry?
His albums grow with time. Listen to his old albums. Make sense now
I CANT WAIT FOR THE BIRDS FLY FILM CLIP
Omg the sports direct thing and he sounded exactly like ian brown hahah
That was so relatable to 🤣
Serious
Please attempt to make yourself appear in Oahu, Hawaii.. xo
Can someone please explain what he means when he is talking about other band members saying one thing but he really knows the truth and what happend. Does he mean the reason for the band splitting up and personal issues within the band or something sinister?
Ask Ian Brown - He supported them in 2008, and mentioned Richard had his own dressing room and the rest of the band were squeezed into another. Says it all really.
Hey given the opportunity wouldn't you
Sure the verve drummer was his solo drummer for ages so cant all be bad feeling
As ever the Industry always discussing The Verve, Not RA
he the leader
Ashcroft’s ego...😂😂😂
I love the Verve and I love Ashcroft but his ego is off the charts. You can see why being in a band with him no matter how successful must have been a pain in the arse.

Richard, you're from Orrell. A solidly middle class, semi-rural area. It's frankly laughable that you constantly make out you're from a deprived background.
I don't think Rich is as funny as he should be is he sadly
You guys going on like this guy is a genius but the guy sounds like he'd struggle to count to 3
There are better singers out there, but there's something very authentic and real in his voice, and if you listen to the lyrics in albums like Human Conditions, he goes a lot deeper than many musicians.
I'm like a fish with legs, I fell from the tree
I made a rocket (check the meaning), I made a wheel
I made a rocket (check the feeling), I swam the ocean (check the meaning)
I saw the moon (say a prayer), I seen the universe (and beyond)
I see you (check the feeling), I see me (check the meaning)
That's my reality
And while the city sleeps we go walking
You either get it or you don’t. Most people can’t understand the depth of this man.
