You can see how annoyed Fiona is by Quentin lmao

[@foljs5858]

She's an introvert with social anxiety, so she has to struggle to be in the conversation. But she is not really annoyed in the list...

[@thatshot9743]

she doesn't look annoyed at all , that's literally her friend , people like you are the annoying ones

[@belloutdoors5217]

​@@thatshot9743Tinos on the cocaine

[@FionaAppleRocks]

You know Quentin could have sung ANY lyric from ANY song, but he had to choose _"Im certainly not shopping for any new shoes..."_ 8:01 - _RUN AWAY Fiona_ - he only likes you for your feet!! {Also he got the lyric slightly wrong, so now he must die}

[@phoenixocm]

HELP FEET

[@Nabil-yh1dz]

LMAOOO

[@edzielinski]

What a joy watching Fiona and Quentin nerding out about the power of being your unapologetic self and daring to explode that inner truth to the world in music and film. Don't ever let the naysayers and haters hold you back! 😊💖

[@adagiobreeze8493]

I really think Fiona’s misery early in her career worked for her cuz she fit in really well with that Riot girl movement in the mid-90s. I could see how she was miserable though cuz she was very mis marketed by her team cuz she’s more of a jazz/ soul singer that was pushed to an alternative crowd.

[@kalimile1917]

it worked so well for her. she transitioned into more alternative sounds on later albums so I think that helped a lot.

[@zimzimzalabim]

Very interesting take. I do think that this perception helped her market her music and give her more credibility and the MTV / alternative audiences. The jazz/soul influence was always there, and her oldest fans know it. Artists in the beginning don't have a lot of control over their careers but it does seem like she was given leeway to create most of her music on her own terms. It would be naive to deny that having connections in the film industry (dating PTA, being fiends with QT) didn't help her though. Fiona never got a bad reputation, as far as I remember. She's been reclusive and open about not liking fame but is smart and media-savvy enough to understand how to market her art, which has led her to a steady, fruitful career spanning 3 decades that allows her to make the music that she wants to make, taking her time to experiment and release albums when she is satisfied with the final product. All in all, I don't think she has much to complain about.

[@saucedupbat]

This is actually so fucking wonderfully human

[@charl3418]

This is the craziest video I've ever seen and I'm not even a minute in

[@jeannetpierre1]

This was everything that I thought it was going to be and more. I'm a total fan of both of them and I love what Quentin said at the end. I'm just not going to repeat it. Thank you for making this sort of collaboration together...

[@dylanarthur5526]

For real I love them both, huge fan. This is awesome!

[@davidhayter1179]

I never thought I'd see one of my favorite artists and one of my favorite directors together. So cool to see how you 2 were just enjoying each other's company.

[@dylanarthur5526]

Damn my favorite director and favorite singer-songwriter praising each other.

[@billyalarie929]

Fiona’s story about her best friend 🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@redpepper75]

I saw this video, like, last decade. Yesterday, I was singing along to fast as you can and it reminded me of this video. One hour ago, Fiona posted the very video.
We’re all connected and all separation is illusion 🌈 ☀️ God loves you

[@SpookyStoner88]

I kept this episode on my TiVo back when it aired for a year !! Lol....my two favorite people 😍

[@matthewomalley6834]

Hi, Steve. 😈

Hi, Steve. 😈

[@cassiecarpenter]

I remember when this aired! He’s so tender with her… PTA’s ghost haunting both of them… I really want to see that bat bridge someday… thanks for sharing 💕🦇💕

[@lvnz2689]

They both remain friends with PTA to this day. He isn't haunting anyone

[@phoenixocm]

@@lvnz2689is fiona still? in a more recent video of her answering questions she called him parent teacher’s association 😅

[@Cr8z13]

I got a content strike for uploading this back in the day, it was when the max runtime was 10 minutes lol.

[@anava84]

haha me too!

[@rinoanniebern4098]

This us gold. Thanks for uploading this. It's been so long since I first saw this.

[@danielleteixeiramatt]

Thank you Fiona Apple Rocks

[@user-ft6yi6op5s]

True originals.I didn’t know he was so into her.Makes me like her more.

[@chrisbarnette7137]

He needs to cast her in a role.

[@djinnmagik6867]

I'd love to take that tour of Troublemaker Studios with Quentin and Fiona and PT 🔥🔥🔥 That's a super fun 😊 day for us.

[@656rntndj]

Thank you for uploading this whole feature! They're such cuties

[@CAB1701]

good job Simon.
Fiona, such a pure soul with the scariest most beautiful eyes. U can get lost in those eyes & combined with her angelic voice tone, hypnotic & spell binding.
then comes the smile, a beam of light, fire!!
Fiona should come to sunny Melb Australia.
Maybe this town ain't cool enough for her. But her presence would be such a jewel, an amazing asset.
El Naturel. Pure beauty. So real yet unbelievable brilliance 👌
🤠❤🤸‍♂️

[@RickyDidham]

Love this! I would love to see Fionas interview and performance on Jimmy Fallon too?

[@FionaAppleRocks]

I have those but Jimmy Fallon content always seems to get taken down on RUclips, the only place to find it is on torrent sites.

[@jamestangoace2193]

I thought I dreamed this video haha

[@DoctorRevers]

Could he talk all day everyday? Curious

[@lecia3834]

LMFAOOOOFOOO

[@francescalewis7357]

Now people can stop using Fiona to be mean about Quentin - keep seeing people quoting her story about getting sober after that night with him and PTA in the context of “see, Fiona can’t stand him” and always would think “but on Iconoclasts it was clear they have a really special friendship…” I like them both - Fiona more, I have an extraordinary machine tattoo - but I like Quentin’s work and I think he’s not as much of an asshole as people think. When she said that night was “excruciating” my interpretation is that she is mainly thinking of PTA, and also just of what people who are already intense are like on coke!

[@FionaAppleRocks]

I have no idea where Fiona is with Quentin, but my own thoughts are that Tarantino started out making movies that were just violent exploitation films but over the years have gotten better and better. People who hated his early movies should give him another try. PTA's movies on the other hand have just got worse and more boringly populist over time, probably because he is running out of ideas he can steal from old Robert Altman movies.

[@cassiecarpenter]

@@FionaAppleRocks savage 💀 nobody blinked when PTA directed a love story between a woman and a 15-year-old boy. He hasn’t made a good movie since Magnolia… and we all know how much Fiona inspired that one 💪🏻

[@amgm1996]

@@FionaAppleRocks "id like to chiose right, take out the things that i said and he stole"

[@FionaAppleRocks]

You are thinking of this lyric, not sure it fits here:
"But I'd like to choose right
Take all the things that I said that he stole
Put 'em in a sack
Swing 'em over my shoulder..."

[@jordynmcallister8676]

I saw her interviewed by Zach Galifianakis and she just seemed so much more herself she was laughing and much more comfortable seeming

[@nadyacherry]

Both genius!

[@randomanton]

two of my favorite writers..., but i'd rather hang w/ miss fiona

[@MeiMeiMeiGGZ]

Her coked up era 💗💗 she was making bops upon bops upon bops… i love sober fiona but its undeniable that this era was her peak imo

[@CrispyShine]

I disagree… I think her latest to the date album (from 2020) is her best

[@desireandfire]

Her music is still really good

[@marianacantale769]

You mean 2005 2006?

[@katdujka4760]

this is what cocaine feels like.

[@user-dz1rc4wk2t]

so pretty

[@maxfrank13]

Poor Fiona. Quentin is the single most annoying person on planet Earth.

[@FionaAppleRocks]

I have this pet theory that every PTA movie has a thread of narcissism running through it, usually one of the lead characters, while every Tarantino movie has a thread of nihilism running through it. Am I over-analysing this? probably, but I think it fits.

[@TryMyMartini]

How does this exist and no one told me????

[@KrystleIrvin]

He is very good.

[@joanna-222]

Quentin scares me

[@dalexisb]

he's so loud and way too coked up, couldn't finish the interview

[@kaisersozay2217]

Imagine you got out at night to the mean eyed cat, and you see Quentin and Fiona 😮

[@AgentQQ8]

… never would have put them together, LoL.
