Not a doctor I'm sat watching this from a hospital bed after a suicide attempt since i woke up all iv done is listen to Sam fender soon as I'm out I'm off to get me guitar n sort me shit out. You are a Dr mate to so many people
Saw him play when he was 18 for Southampton (1988) Newcastle had knocked him back, there was a real buzz about him. I'm a Gooner btw went with a Saints mate as we were in Bournemouth for the weekend.
@No More'Brain dead zombie'....oh wow, a keyboard warrior. 'Eh?' means you need to elaborate. How is he slandering his ancestry, and how is he evil and effeminate?
Sam is so down to earth what lovely guy, his music is so sincere and powerful, dead’s boys is a beautiful song first song I ever heard of Sam’s and I’ve never looked back since, captivating voice, sincere well written lyrics great on the guitar, amazing band ..can’t wait to see him next year in concert
Shearer is a legend, I walked past him in Hexham golf club car park an just said "alright Al, good game? " he smiled, said "terrible, enjoy yer day" then I nearly got ran over by a parked car, Sam is on the up an will end up another famous Geordie
Have to confess that I only came across Sam’s music a couple of weeks ago. My excuse is I’m late 40s and just not down with the kids these days. Anyway, what a voice, what a musician, what a writer, what a gent. Bravo Sam. Keep doing what you do.
Dead boys is my favourite song but I can't listen to it haha because It snaps me in half, I lost a best friend and I relate so much to that song, thankyou sam and the boys keep blessing us
Newcastle is like Glasgow in the sense of loving their football teams. Aye and Leo the Lion - Legend Alan Shearer was born 3 days after me lol. I'm a Celtic fan and I appreciate this totally.
Massively late to the Sam Fender party, but saw him supporting Bruce Springsteen in Rome last week - thought he was great and have downloaded some of his music. And I've always loved Alan Shearer! What a lovely interview this is 😊
Lovely chat. Very important. That would’ve been very difficult for Shearer too, knowing that friendship he had with Gary Speed. Fair play, both chaps. True pride for the Toon.
This is the best, most genuine interview I've ever seen, so brilliant to see two lads who grew up working class and did so incredibly well. Plus Sams humility about his job but still understanding the effect he can have is so mature and incredible of him
Absolutely crackin interview, what a really down to earth lad, 3 years ago on benefits and look where he is now, credit to him. 👏 Just goes to prove, if you keep trying and aiming for something in life this is where you could possibly get.
This lad seems very genuine and sincere and just a nice likeable decent person.. As a typical 50 yr old I Don't listen to much modern music I'm prob stuck in the 80s and 90s But Started listening to his music recently and he's brilliant very gifted and his songs are very relatable Hope he keeps a level head and good people around him... All the best Sam
3 years ago: ‘I can’t fathom what’s going on’ when he meets Alan Shearer in a small clubhouse in North Shields. This past weekend, c.2023: TWO sold-out nights at St James’ Park, to around 100,000 people, where he casually brought AC/DC’s frontman and fellow Geordie Brian Johnson on stage to sing a few songs amongst his own banging set list. Boy has done so good, top work Sam 👏🥹
Genuinely nice kid, with so much talent and passion for music. I’ve only really discovered his music in the last 6 months. Best singer/songwriter around and shits all over the talentless Ed sheeran
Excellent musician, I'd totally agree with Shearer about people in Newcastle only wearing Toon tops, but being from Burnley its exactly the same, never ever see any other top but clarets one. I think that is how it should be, you should support your local club regardless of how good they are, that's the whole point to be proud of the team and town...I just can't understand people supporting Man Utd and living in Surrey, why? you simply can not have the same dedication and passion no matter how long you support them.
First Album I have purchased in years. Heard Sam on XS Manchester and told a friend about him, and he told me about this touching video. Took me back years, as being in Western Canada, and just learning about footie, I had friends proselyting me with ManU, Arsenal and Newcastle jerseys. Suffice it to say, I sided with the Geordie lads at the time of Shearer. Nice to see the planets align in this video.
Two great Geordies together, love it Sam is just an amazing young musician, and what can you say of Alan Shearer, a football god.. Love Newcastle, the city the people and everything about the place, moving there soon............can't wait. A dream come true.
@@neilt7145 Geordie is a nickname for a person from the Tyneside area of North East England, and the dialect used by its inhabitants, also known in linguistics as Tyneside English or Newcastle English. There are different definitions of what constitutes a Geordie. The term is used and has been historically used to refer to the people of the North East.A Geordie can also specifically be a native of Tyneside (especially Newcastle upon Tyne) and the surrounding areas.
Sam Fender ....For a lad so young ....This interview has proven that your care to issues facing people is legendary ...Well done...You are a top bloke, with a top band making great tunes
There are fewer worthy folks than those who have the beautiful and due success as this fella. I grew up on the streets of the north east, the age of despair, no prospects, dead end job. Questioning the future. None understand it all like Sam, he speaks of resilience but it's spoken from experience. But he is living proof that talent and hard work wins in the end. I'm chuffed to bits for ya Sam! Keep shining that light, carrying that torch for the North East! Meeting your hero and idol is just magical haha! Love ya pal!!!
Saw him in Leeds recently, asked the crowd to chant shearers name and he recorded it on on someone’s phone because his died, he said he’d send it to shearer afterwards
What makes me happy in these crazy times is that young people like Sam, true musicians who love their craft, will keep music alive and well. Not just existing but thriving. Wonderful.
The story about the guy in his car hit me completely. I know what he means because i mostly work with cancer patients. A lot of them have not much time left.
Sam saying "Michael Owen is a twat" and Alan pissing himself laughing, floors me every time
Just got into his music recently. He's an outstanding musician, Newcastle should be very proud.
We are
We are mate
Not to be one of those "Well, actually..." twats BUT... he's from North Shields.
I just saw him and his band live last weekend-one of the best gigs I've ever been to! Still smiling - he's a special one.
Nevermind Newcastle being proud. I'm from Middlesbrough and the whole North East should be proud. He's absolutely brilliant.
Love Sam he’s such a genuine lad
This Sam Fender geezer looks like a healthy Kurtan from This Country
Hahahahaha yea he does
That’s accurate 😂😂😂
SPOT ON
Sam is a genuine working class hero. Talented, brainy, modest, authentic. An amazing role model.
How do you know he is working class?
@@DigitalDaffodil oh, he's not? My mistake.
@@PaulCarr1 is he? I don’t know? How would you know ? It’s odd that you have assumed that about him
@@PaulCarr1 he was he’s talked about it many times on how it was hard for him growing up without much money :)
@@DigitalDaffodil he is if you look at his interviews he’s talked about it quite a lot how he’s grown up in a working class town.
Not a doctor I'm sat watching this from a hospital bed after a suicide attempt since i woke up all iv done is listen to Sam fender soon as I'm out I'm off to get me guitar n sort me shit out. You are a Dr mate to so many people
Stay strong. Wishing you all the luck getting things sorted. Hope you have a happy life. 🙏🏼
Hope your strumming that guitar 💕
sending you my best wishes + yeah hope you're playing guitar!! love Sam Fender too
How you doing Samuel ? Hopefully good. I’m
Only from RUclips. 👍👍
How’s things now Samuel? Hope you’re way on the up🙏
I love that he went straight in for the hug. If you were watching Shearer as a kid as Sam and Myself did he's practically a mythical figure.
Saw him play when he was 18 for Southampton (1988) Newcastle had knocked him back, there was a real buzz about him. I'm a Gooner btw went with a Saints mate as we were in Bournemouth for the weekend.
As a Sunderland supporter and if you know the fierce rivalry....this lad is unbelievably amazing
Wow! That’s the biggest complaint to us geordies lol xx
That means a lot mate, we're not that different
He deserves every single scrap of respect on this planet and more
Why?
@@DigitalDaffodil why the fuck are you all over these comments telling people to justify themselves
Bllloorrrrrrrrrrr whaddyatalkinabeet!?!
Totally agree my fellow Sasquatchian.
@@DigitalDaffodil Why are you such a butthead?
Love how shearer is just listening really appreciating what Sam's saying
Sam Fender is a real guy.
No More Eh?
@No More'Brain dead zombie'....oh wow, a keyboard warrior. 'Eh?' means you need to elaborate. How is he slandering his ancestry, and how is he evil and
effeminate?
@@krisoli1218 he's "slandering his ancestry" just because he tells the truth in his song "White Privilege" 😂 bellend
i agree
Thought he was a hologram lol
Sam is so down to earth what lovely guy, his music is so sincere and powerful, dead’s boys is a beautiful song first song I ever heard of Sam’s and I’ve never looked back since, captivating voice, sincere well written lyrics great on the guitar, amazing band ..can’t wait to see him next year in concert
What a beutiful fucking interview. When he explains the meaning around 'dead boys' everything he speaks is honest and true.
Newcastle is the greatest city on earth
It sure is ❤️⚫️⚪️
Daniel James piss off
The greatest and the worst at the same time, I really miss it
You clearly never left Newcastle....Just kidding.
Daniel James 1-0
Nice of Alan Shearer. This channel is really awesome when it comes to footballers.
Shearer is a legend, I walked past him in Hexham golf club car park an just said "alright Al, good game? " he smiled, said "terrible, enjoy yer day" then I nearly got ran over by a parked car, Sam is on the up an will end up another famous Geordie

Two Geordie legends ❤️
The reaction to Shearer walking in is fantastic
One of the coolest video's I've seen. Sam's the real deal.
The juxtaposition of him being a hilarious lad, and his absolute geniuous as a songwriter and artist.
Sam being such a fanboy is so adorable. What a lovely interview. Two lovely blokes having a chat.
Sam fender you legend. Cant wait for your Dublin gig
Love ALAN SHEARER. Newcastle united legend.
leeds united fan 💛💙
Snap! MOT

Im not a Newcastle fan but I have hugh respect for Alan Sheerer.
3:42 absolutely incredible
i love how genuine he is, he’s not here for money he’s here because he likes what he does
Who isn’t genuine
@@DigitalDaffodil You pal!
Honestly what a bloke Sam Fender is and wore Alan. ❤
This makes me smile
Class. It’s hard to understand how much shearer is adored up this way, almost universally adored. Was lucky enough to go to his testimonial.
I was there too
6:58 first that laugh and then his sweaty little hands aaaawww he's too cute
*w h a t*
he's such a genuine bloke
I have never seen a singer get so excited seeing someone else who is famous
Lovely chat. Very important. That would’ve been very difficult for Shearer too, knowing that friendship he had with Gary Speed. Fair play, both chaps. True pride for the Toon.
Oh Gary, Gary! Gary, Gary, Gary, Gary, Gary Speed!
This is the best, most genuine interview I've ever seen, so brilliant to see two lads who grew up working class and did so incredibly well.
Plus Sams humility about his job but still understanding the effect he can have is so mature and incredible of him
There has been some great strikers in the Premier league and Alan Shearer was and always will be the king
Absolutely crackin interview, what a really down to earth lad, 3 years ago on benefits and look where he is now, credit to him. 👏
Just goes to prove, if you keep trying and aiming for something in life this is where you could possibly get.
Alan is so kind and awesome

"I'll never underestimate the clout of me job." Ahh the North. Every man a legend.
Sam is now an official legend in the North East. Two number 1 albums, and now a Brit! Get in there, lad! Enjoy your pints tonight.
I love celebs helping make a wish
100% hardship makes people come together what an incredible inspirational fella
His reaction the stunned silence speaks volumes
Love Sam....such a genuine dude

What a couple of legends! As a Leeds United supporter, Alan broke my heart a fair few times but I still love him to bits.
“Mate, three years ago, Alan”. Fantastic… ❤️
Love the grin on Sam's face as Alan signs his guitar! Priceless!
He's such a lovely bloke
What a nice surprise for the lad, both come across as still very much grounded even with how they're lives have become
His face when Shearer walked in was and is priceless! 😎😎😂😂😄😄
I'm a manc but supported Newcastle my whole life. I'd have shit my knickers if he walked in.
What a lovely lad Sam is.
