- La conférence de presse filmée de Robert Smith sur le plateau de la WebTV des Vieilles Charrues le vendredi 20 juillet 2012.
His comments about life outside of stage, getting older etc. So deep ❤ No Robert, it wasn’t stupid, it was full of wisdom.
hes so turned off by the media its awesome
A trilogy concert of the Top, Head on the Door, and Kiss Me would be amazing.
It’s important to remember the context of this video. Clearly Robert Smith (who has always been uncomfortable in the interview chair) was not prepared for a crowded press conference and (as he says in his last comment) he obviously wanted to be outside listening to the other artists. It was 2012, still the beginning of the transformation that smartphones would make to society. The very idea of social media was still quite a “young people” thing. TikTok didn’t exist. Very few adults were used to the idea that everything we say could be immediately broadcast and accessible to anyone. And it was the band’s first performance during a very sensitive time (as he describes at the end). He was also likely taking heat for both performing at all and especially with a new guitarist. This video gives a better sense of the fire that clearly burns under the surface of his skin and I’m sure it was awkward for everyone there and it’s a bit hair-raising to listen to at the beginning, but it makes a lot of sense given the context of the time and the situation for the band and for him. Thanks for sharing.
What happened?
He disdains interviews but the nature of interviewing pop groups is that there really is little to ask. The interviewers have to cough up questions, many of which sound vapid. But what else would you ask? This isn't about a cure for cancer.
So much is being lost in translation or an (edit: a) lack of. Robert’s slight of humor is going beyond this crowd making the laughing, light and funny reactions being sent out to space with blank faces. Still, I love listening to his mind and honesty and chuckled throughout. Deep love ♥️ and respect for This creative human human.
Robert didn't joke about what music he listened at that moment. He joked that she is a new artist.
It was a good press conference, I like its vibes. And Robert was interesting.
Thanks for posting that.
I love a drunk and salty Robert! ❤️😜🔥
I think he’s just really tired, he said he just played live before
@@AristocrateBienEleve yes i'm sure. Well, I love me a bit of grumpy tired Robert too. 😁
He really doesn't like having a conversation with a room full of people - I remember in an interview he said he thinks it's unnatural. I reckon he wasn't told just how many would be there - so his embarrassment/awkwardness I think is coming off as anger/annoyance.
I enjoyed Robert’s insight about the relationship with his current Cure lineup, as well as his former members.
He also didn’t sound like he wanted to be doing a press conference and would rather be listening to other bands performing and be drinking with his bandmates. Thank you for posting!
I love his bit about producers. Also wtf is that music at the start
@@thunder_heads yeah, I loved his bit about producers too. You prompted me to watch this again - it is so rich with his “classic Robert " blunt sarcasm which I love so much!!
18:00 Love his response when asked what new artist he is listening to now and his answer is the 1930,40,50’s female American Jazz and Swing singer “Billie Holiday, she is a new artist, you should check her out.”
This is so epic Robert!
by the sounds of things he had been drinking lmao
@@alexsmith5511 yeah I think he was on the beer
My heart hurts for Robert so much. Hes terribly uncomfortable. What else can he do but be sarcastic? What an awful environment for the interview, too. Hes forced into these situations which is to be expected as the lead singer but oh how anxiety ridden he must be. If he could crawl into himself he would. Then these questions are appalling. I love him so much and respect his need for privacy. Bless u, Robert! The fans appreciate so much u have to endure. ❤🤗
omg, he was so pissed off :)
Toujours vivant Robert 🔥👌
"Mixed Up 2" - yet another thing that never happened lol. He did all the remixes on the bonus disc. I WANT TO HEAR THAT MOGWAI REMX OF FAITH FFS.
Yes, i agree with you. I was the man who asked this question, just in front of Robert. I was surprised of his answer and I was waiting for this album which is never came since that interview...
That music in the background...WHY is it there?
It was during a big festival and in front of the area of the interview, Metronomy was playing music !
I completely understand Robert's demeanour. You are told there will be 4 people in a room to talk to only to walking into a room filled with people just staring at you expecting something. Its off putting and annoying. You feel lied too and trapped and then have inane questions fired at you. It's horrible. I thought he handled it well enough. He stayed composed and endured it.
He surely wasn’t comfortable, but feel quite obligated to be there and give those reporters an insight about his band , however robert definitely did not like the environment he was in , but for some reason he had no choice but to confront the situation, he did his best according to his mood at the time.
Interview intéressante malgré le fait que l’intervieweuse n’écoute pas les questions et ne puisse pas traduire
Oui, sur place, j'avais gardé une impression de "trop peu" pour la partie traduction et animation des questions. Et je n'ai jamais eu vraiment la traduction compréhensible à ma question concernant le virage électro que le groupe aurait pu prendre dans les années 90 à la sortie de cet album de remix "Mixed Up"
La seul chose qu’il répond à ta questions est: “c’est une question improbable”. Puis il enchaîne directement sur le fait qu’il veut sortir Mixed Up 2 a Noël. Il ne réponds donc pas à ta question car, et la j’interprète ce que je ressens, c’est juste inimaginable pour lui ce “virage electro”. C’est pourquoi il dit que la question est improbable.
There is a shit ton of stuff you haven't finished editing, Robert. We have been waiting on a ton of stuff...
He seems very tired and a bit drunk...
He litrally just came from doing a gig and the rest of the cure where at the bar having fun and he had to do this....
@@thunder_heads there’s pros and cons of being the front man. And i think for Robert, doing interviews is something he’s always ‘hated.’ But i love most of his interviews, esp ones that he enjoys
What is that music at the start lmao
I think it's Metronomy. The band was playing at the same time in the festival
Lol Robert was in a weird mood here.
Very nostalgic mood
Quel masacre ces traduction ... une honte...
Oui, la nana qui fait les traductions est complètement dépassée… 🙄
@@jeanfrancoislac Comment avez-vous pu récupérer cette vidéo ? J'en gardais un souvenir assez vague mais la sensation d'avoir mal vécu ce moment de traduction et d'animation des questions effectivement...
This was a bit cringey tbh... Robert sounds a bit off mood and buzzed.
So grumpy !!!
poor interviewer which does not even hear what he says 2 meters away from him...
deserved much more than this amateur !..she is as much as a journalist as i am a surgeon...being French as i am that is...
21ST CENTURY AND THE FRENCH NEEDS TRANSLATION...21 ST SENTURY AND THEY STILL DONT SPEAK ENGLISH SOME OF THEM
I think there are more French people who speak English than English people who speak French...
Faire une interview en anglais alors qu'on ne parle visiblement pas anglais... quelle honte et quel manque de respect...
Oui, on la sent complètement dépassée au fur et à mesure de l’interview. J’ai de la pitié pour elle.
just learn fucking english like everyone else in the world. Why should Robert speak french?
Robert has consistently repeated over the years how much he hated being the centre of attention. The adulatiion, the obsession with fame and celebrity is "just junk" ; "it's a vacuum. There's absolutely nothing to it.", i remember him saying in an interview. No wonder he felt terribly out of place and uncomfortable in front of these people staring at him, not even understanding a word of what he was saying.
As a French person, i am appalled by how awfully bad my compatriots are when it comes to speaking English. That woman was fucking useless! And the people asking questions were barely understandable. You see interviews in any country, and although the questions aren't necessarily always smart, at least the journalists seem to make an effort to speak proper English, whereas the French are generally hopeless. it's pathetic!
I saw a video of that same interview with French subtitles and the translation was so bad, it was embarrssing. RS is a sensitive, humble and very profound person. Watching him try to express what's on his mind and heart with his usual wit and sense of humour to people who don't seem to get any of it is almost painful.
