Thank you for so many great songs, Paddy. I'm 22 years old and I don't know the era when Prefab Sprout was active. I'm a Japanese and I can't understand the lyrics well. But I'm so happy that I meet you. So beautiful pop songs. I love you.
Nozomi what a wonderful post. I'm so glad Paddy and Prefab's music touches you. My parents used to play Prefab Sprout all the time. My dad is from where Paddy is from, North East of England. But love and music are international. Irish in Spain sending love to Japan
What a legend, he may look like a wizard now. But his magic touched the hearts and souls of so many and left a feeling that when you hear it. It all comes back # I remember that.
It's incredible how underrated these guys were..Padddy seemed to have shunned the limelight..they could have been massive..still the music speaks for itself,a great band💯
Unbelievable,I have all the albums paddy penned,I saw he’s worth 13 million dollars,all the years he’s been at it,then a singer like Robbie Williams who hasn’t got a tenth of the intelligence and songwriting ability of paddy gets £80 million from Sony,unbelievable,some of paddy’s intelligent lyrics get you reaching for a thesaurus!!!!,Robbie would think it came from the Jurassic period!!!!!
I've got a theory that having a really silly name might have held them back a tiny bit. Ok The Beatles was a silly name too but they were on another level musically to all their peers. Prefab Sprout had a few worthy contemporaries with catchier/cooler names. I also apply my theory to Limp Bizkit!
@@chelseapoet3664 Well look at 'Inspiral Carpets'..that was a weird name that was plucked out of hat with different words written on bits of paper..none the less they were are great band💯

The brilliant album "Swoon" was one of the soundtracks to my undergrad years in Manchester in the mid-80s. Working late into the night in a freezing cold terraced house in Rusholme, sitting in a sleeping bag at my desk and listening to it on cassette. "Her husband works at Jodrell Bank, gets home late in the morning" still sticks in my mind. Those harmonies and melodies felt strange but somehow accomplished to my ears. Thank you Paddy and the other Prefabs, I hope you're all prospering.
Listening to Prefab Sprout yesterday I was reminded how Swoon was one of my Xmas presents in 1986 as I was catching up with their music, having bought Steve McQueen earlier in the year. I know they were released in 1984 and 1985 respectively. Swoon was a revelation as it was quite different to Steve McQueen. Elegance is a great song, probably my favourite. It is the sort of album that gets under your skin and draws you in the more you listen to it, not unlike many others, of course! I really think they evolved their sound to hit the heights of perfection with the three albums that followed, especially Steve McQueen and From Langley Park To Memphis.
You nailed it. Swoon is the deepest for me and I don't think that is the case for many people.* The strange was the most interesting. When Bobby Fischer's plane (PLANE PLANE) touches the ground (PLANE PLANE). Paddy said he wanted to get away from the cleverness and that's fine, I love the others, but the capacity and the inclination to be eerie was a very special moment. * OK OK, Swoon and "Cars and Girls" and "Prisoner of the Past" and...
Where have all those years gone? Paddy, your a genius. Easily my favourite group, just ahead of Talk talk. Down to the sheer volume of endless brilliant tracks. 👏
I owe you a few beers Paddy for the many moments of pure unadulterated bloody joy you've given me over many years through my youth and into the creaking joints years. I love you man.
At 18, I was listening to Pixies or Led Zep with my buddies, and Prefab Sprout with my girlfriend ;) 30 years later, i listen to these 3 bands with everybody ;)
Paddy is a musical genius - timeless music & lyrics - not the throwaway dross forced onto the listeners by the radio stations today. Would have loved to see him sing live once - never had the chance!
Wow This hits you hard! When you still listen to these incredible tunes of Pf S its like a time machine it makes you feel young again which only seem like yesterday. Then Paddy's appearance only confirms there is no escaping time we really do get older. Crazy this may sound but nostalgia is virtually keeping me alive!!
Love this man's laugh. Makes him sound really happy and not bitter at all. Love that jolly laugh and that giddy attitude to talk about his work like he needs to spread the news because he knows someone's listening. Very proud and satisfied, but humble about it.
I found "I Trawl the Megahertz" by accident through "unofficial" channels many years ago. It has been a work I have returned to from time to time. It is a great piece of music. It is great that it is now available on Spotify (and other official places) so that it is only a mouse click away from my ears.
I love this guy so much. He just looked like Colonel Sanders and now he's a Santa. It's been 7 years since last Prefab record and I still have hope for the next one
Great to listen to prefab sprouts music after so many yrs , I lived in Witton Gilbert and had a house just up the road from McAloons garage where they practiced, great days before life got serious , all the best to paddy and the band , cheer Mitch 👍
I feel so sorry for kids now. The music that was avialable to me then, is still with me now and it's just as meaningful when I hear it now. We were so lucky to have people like this, even if we didn't know it at the time.
33 years ago, I saw Prefab live at the Aston Villa Leisure Centre during The Comeback Tour and they were superb live. For me, their albums on vinyl are timeless and unique and one of the most creative bands of that era.
I went to see Prefab Sprout in 1986 the lady singer (sorry can't remember her name!)was ill with a bad sore throat & Paddy seamlessly sung his parts and then sung her parts in a higher voice much to the amusement of the audience he did a great job 💖 wonderful band up there (on their own unique way)with the smiths x
I love Paddy; he's a genius, a talented, sensitive artist and a nice, profound person. Glad to see him around after the challenges he had to face in his life; It would have been nice to see the whole interview, which doesn't seem to be that good though; anyway, thanks for posting.
I saw them at Sheffield Uni or was it the Poly, anyway it was when they toured Swoon.They blew my doors off.They were fantastic live.One of the best gigs I have ever seen.
The 80s for me were just basically Power Corruption and Lies, The Stone Roses, The Queen is Dead, Soul Mining and Steve McQueen...didn't know how lucky i was!

'Billy' from Prefab Sprout's Crimson/Red 2013 Album is another truly great song. One of my very favorite songs in my 50 years of having favorites! Grateful for your genius Paddy.
Great interview, shame there is not more of it, hearing Paddy saying he did not tour much makes me so glad i saw him and Prefab Sprout live many years ago in Cardiff, i had a standing ticket right next to the stage, it was the best live concert i have ever been to and he forgot the Hot Dog Jumping Frog lyrics when they did King of Rock and Roll which made it more memorable :-)
He will always be up there with Lennon McCartney, Neil Finn as a song writer love the band got all their albums, good to hear from him, man he was a handsome sod, looks strange to see him now all beard and long grey hair, a truly lovely man
Ce monsieur est un pur génie , pas assez reconnu à mon humble avis ! Un mélodiste hors pair , arrangeur , auteur ...que de belles musiques il a offert au monde ! je le suis depuis le début et je peux vous le dire , en tant que musicien professionnel (batteur-compositeur) ces morceaux sont des merveilles intemporelles !

Appreciated that - these were such a great band, King of Rock N Roll I just love, Love Breaks Down great also, that old TOTP video just great. I had mistakenly thought they were Scottish - I don't know why.
What a band,great lyrics,two great singers,pin sharp drummer and bassist.....incredible orchestration.....I'm glad I saw them twice live,their music was sublime.
He is such an awesome artist. Thank God he is looking great and back. I remember before he had a condition something about his vision or eyesight not sure though...
A simple thought about Swoon on a warm summer day and the depth of you then that is still me outside of time bought me here. And so. I'm off to listen to Swoon. I'm still in love with Haley Mills.
I will never understand how "when love breaks down" wasn't a massive hit . Beautiful song .

you should listen fishmans from Japan!
If you study the lyrics to King of Rock 'n' Roll you will understand a truth about America, it is hidden between the lines.

Sweet stuff
A musician and songwriter of the same calibre as Brian Wilson and John Lennon. I Trawl The Megahertz is just such a fine piece of work.
I wouldn’t go that far…
An out of this world songwriter!
Still blown away by the lyrics of “The Sound of Crying.”
Paddy Macca and Paul Macca
Mmm ...2 wonderful musicians...??
Even faces are similar.
Even more relevant in the light of what happened at the Supernova festival and subsequent actions in Gaza.
It's incredible how underrated these guys were..Padddy seemed to have shunned the limelight..they could have been massive..still the music speaks for itself,a great band💯
He shunned his non existent limelight coz it didn't exist to start with.Brilliant pastiche though - similar to Brian Pern or David Brent.........

When Love Breaks Down, Johnny Johnny & Bonny are such amazing songs - dude is an incredible songwriter with an amazing voice
I have an appetite for all their songs.

Johnny/Bonny had to be turned off when put on at EVERY DJ event requested. Bloody awful...
I owe you a few beers Paddy for the many moments of pure unadulterated bloody joy you've given me over many years through my youth and into the creaking joints years. I love you man.
Paddy is a musical genius
The greatest songwriter and composer of his generation. The 80s' answer to Brian Wilson.
If you do ever see this Paddy take heart in the fact that you changed my life. Not just then but today and every day after. Absolute genius.
"Folks in the valley will look up and say
"You've finally built it can we come and stay ?"
Swoon as and still is an absolutely brilliant album.
Their absolute peak, imho.

Been a fan since I heard "Appetite" which to this day is still one of my favourite songs. Just adore this band, we'll never see their like again.
Hopefully not. This is a like a David Brent pastiche........
