it's so strange to hear her speak. I've loved Portishead since puberty, and it's the first time I've heard that. If only they let her think and speak instead of interrupting.
They are doing a good job there. That "interrupting" is what actually makes footages like this happen. Singers are not talkers. so you need talkers to help singers talk. Otherwise, forget it.
@@kiritanJNope. Singers out of all artists are the most extraverted. And they definitely love to talk and think deeply. And they will with you, if they like and trust you. If a singer needs "interruptions" to keep going, then interviewer is shallow. With a good interviewer a deep questions and time to thorouhly answer them is the best variant for interviewing an artist.
Been captured by Beth and Portishead since their debut album and never have I seen her talk I don't think, but I also realise its the first time Ive seen her eyes. I always noticed them closed but its the first time I see them clearly open. And they are nice and shy
at the first question, it's already clear that she doesn't want to speak (or she can't speak), so they try to make it easier for her by asking questions that need short answers, and not letting her "alone".
Beth Gibbons says 5 or 6 words and the Frenchman takes 20 or 30 words to translate it. I suspect he's more interested in the sound of his own voice than he is in what Gibbons has to say.
I know she's a bit shy and gives very few interviews, which is why I was interested in what she thought and what she had to say. But the interviewers ego wrecks things because he speaks over 80% of the words in the clip and we don't get to hear much from Gibbons. That's bad technique and poor journalism by any standard.

She hates interviews and these 2 d-bags did nothing to lighten the mood or put her at ease. She was getting barraged with questions and being pulled in different directions. Probably the worst thing you can do to someone like Beth.

Did you meet Paul Weller at unemployment agency? (A Yes/No Question) Its your first album this one? (A Yes/No question) Did you sing before Portishead? (A Yes/No Question) Are you fan of bands like Total, Cock two Twinz, Talk-talk? (A Yes/No Question) Those were the questions asked..................................erm............
Not many spoke English back in 94. My family used to holiday there as a kid in the 90's, and we had to learn French to get about. Can you imagine? Disgusting. Now, thankfully, English has become the universal language and the shame is on them, not us. But it was a different time back then.
What??! 😂🤣😂 It doesn't even look alike. lol Anyway That guy is simply not funny. Layne 🕊️ was such a sweetheart and I say I wish he had been there. I'm sure it would have helped Beth. Although it's also true that this is 1995. Staley also started to hate interviews, unfortunately you can't find anything about him after 1996 around this time. Two fantastic and unique talents, Layne Staley (RIP)♾️ and Beth Gibbons💜❗
@@dickmonkey-king1271 She's absolute precious nowadays,and released lately a New album; check it out: 'Beth Gibbons - Lives Outgrown' you'll find a couple live performance for sure. ✌🏻
Quand la belle Beth Gibbons s'en va (surement) pour fumer une clope avec ses potos. L'audience reste avec Stephan Eicher et là tu sent le mec qui veut vendre sa came absolument. C'est la différence entre le talent pur et les amateurs.

Thank you very much for this footage! I've been looking for Beth's interviews for ages but couldn't find any until now! Thanks again :)
Tamta Ghvitidze it's because she won't do them she said. This is super rare and I think probably one of her only ones.
@Sheels1976 Here is one more interview by Her: ruclips.net/video/tPr81oqAOXg/видео.html

She's so cute, sweet, and lovely. Absolutely adorable!
Beth Gibbons has a really infectious smile, and I never realised that before. She seems really shy here, too, but handled it like a trooper. Respect.
I don't think they really liked having to perform live,and yeah she seems like more of a private person.
it's so strange to hear her speak. I've loved Portishead since puberty, and it's the first time I've heard that. If only they let her think and speak instead of interrupting.
Same here! I'd never seen an interview of her! and I've been a fan for...22 years?

They have to translate for the audience, but it is a shame.
I was post-pubic when I got into them. I wonder at what stage of puberty other Portishead fans got into them...?

Beth needs to be protected at all costs.
Brilliant you said it like a poet. Thanks for your insight.
@@leonaltmark2852it's an unoriginal comment
She is protected by higher instances. She is Goddes itself
She must have hated this.
What do you mean?
@@madddog2487super shy. She pretty much has done like zero press apart from few things like this
Especially with stupid french
I would loathe talking to these skunks as well
This is honestly the first time I have heard Beth speak in a complete sentence.
I wish she knew how much her singing voice caught me.
Will they ever understand how impactful this album was? They captured ether. I am devestated by this album everytime. Still. Since childhood.
I couldn't have described it any better. Years later the songs are still ingraved in my brain.
Beth is so far out her comfort zone here. Love her.
I never thought she would have such a joyful and beautiful smile. I mean, the tone and the lyrics of Portishead are so down (wich I freacking love).
she's adorable
Clas K. Very. It's almost too much.
@@TheDreamingJune OMG I can barely take it!
Beth Gibbons is the greatest singer of all time. Never have i heard anyone hit high notes like she does
She always performs with her eyes closed so I never realised I’ve never seen her eyes. She’s gorgeous!
Ohh my goodness, she's adorable.
Beth is so beautiful and shy and no make up. Amazing woman with everything angelic about her.
Ok, I didn't think I could find Beth Gibbons even more awesome and adorable than I already did. But I just did.
She is so humble. There is no one like her in entertainment. ❤️
Been captured by Beth and Portishead since their debut album and never have I seen her talk I don't think, but I also realise its the first time Ive seen her eyes. I always noticed them closed but its the first time I see them clearly open. And they are nice and shy
Somewhere in another universe, these two french blokes are still chatting each other up, ad nauseam.
She's my hero
WE NEEDED this. You are god's gift.
what´s the point in interviewing someone if you won't let her speak...
at the first question, it's already clear that she doesn't want to speak (or she can't speak), so they try to make it easier for her by asking questions that need short answers, and not letting her "alone".
It's called interpreting.
Typical French media btw
It is so rare to find these. I know it is a year later but thanks for uploading!

This footage is a perfect example why she does not like to give interviews

Apparemment vous ne comprenez pas un mot de français ! car il n'y a pas de superflu
He's also repeating the question he first asked her in English (translated back into French, for the French Audience), don't forget.
Dave Sisson Agreed. He may not mean to be, but he’s annoying.
Faut avouer qu'en 2021 elle a pas perdu en beauté.
Must admit she's still beautiful 26 years later.
such pretty eyes
she just wanted to run away as soon as he said thank you for coming lol.
Beth! You rock!
Perhaps the first and last Beth Gibbons interview I'll ever see and it only lasts a few short minutes. I'm both ecstatic and devastated.

Beth avoiding the limelight the right way is something Sia & her various social media accounts could take a lesson from.
i'm not here to drag other artists but yeah, there's actual introversion & insecurity vs gimmicks for image & publicity's sake
la amooo!
Adorable ♡
She is beautiful introvert)
Needs more Beth
She barely spoken more then 3 words
Mostly the interviewers doing all the talking
i love Beth Gibbon
Gosh, I wonder why she hates interviews. She was trying to say "I can't get a word in edgewise" and she couldn't even say that. Fuck.
i do love this wooman🫂♥️♥️♥️
She seems like a beautiful woman inside and out you can't help falling in love with her
Tan tierna ❤
She is so adorable!
they literally dont let her speak at all lol

Does that guy ever shut up?
The french accent is nice of course, but the way she speaks is really lovely.

I can understand peoples' frustration because we all want to see Beth speak, but they have to translate for a largely French-speaking audience.
NO

Translate after the full answer, not by interrupting halfway through it.
