she is literally so beautiful
Was then, still is
Very much so.
Liz Phair deserves to be young forever.
She still looks pretty good....
Yeah man, she is aging quite well.
she looks amazing
Christ, she is smart!
How you think she writes this stuff?? LOVE her she's one of my top 2 fave writers.
Whip-Smart
She is a true artist. She really cares about what she puts into her form of art, and I wish there were more people like her today!
There is. Introducing Lizzo.....
lizzo?? fuck no.
lizzo?? fuck no.
lizzo?? fuck no.
I love her so much. Rarely do I ever love all of the songs from one album, first took to the upbeat one and now really dig the weird slow burners
Sean Nessman I just found her ‘Exile In Guyville’ at a thrift shop, got home and each song is just awesome. 🥴 I love all those inner book photos, too. Would like to find the boxed set from her. Fun artist.
I really, really, love & appreciate this Album. It's like listening to the voice in her head talk to herself. It's like her brain recorded a record, I love it.
Such a great archive find! Really cool to see into her thinking and the development of it all.
I miss the raw feeling of coming into your own after college
I just graduated, trying to find this raw feeling myself haha
Good point, and I don't have a chip on my shoulder but some people don't need to go to college to find themselves.
What if you never went to college despite your middle class upbringing , what then
I graduated into a YUGE recession 🙈
@@jerrygarcia4390 lmfao, great response to a truly great comment... this thread is one of the only places that comments can endure time and evolve in their responses. This interaction makes me happy....
I love you, Liz Phair.
She’s a great interview. Never at a loss for words and answers any questions with charm and honesty.
Gosh she was a knockout huh? Beautiful and fucking brilliant.
She will always be
She's a poet and an artist.
@@TheTrouserPuppetsOfficial The whole package is an impressive. ;)
God I love this album, she’s great
9:40 She's actually an amazing guitar player on top of a songwriter. Incredibly tricky arrangements and chords.
Yo for real
An underrated guitar player
Ugh, still in love with Liz.
God, I saw her live so many times, and she was great. I just found that first album at a young age, and was obsessed. Every. Word.
6'1" is an excellent tune. One of her gems
I have always loved that song. It always takes me mind back to the 90s. The song is one of the most "Liz" songs to me.
Divorce song
As a 5’2” woman, I relate to it a great deal.
"A panel of critics and judges". Wait till social media arrives, Liz!
Good one 👍🏾
Her 2019 autobiography "Horror Stories" is terrific.
well shoot, dont leave us hanging ... dish some dirt .
I can vouch for this. I’m 4 chapters in 👍🏽
I remember watching this back in the day, thanks whoever posted this!!
I love this interview, it's fascinating and as usual Liz is witty and eloquent. Thanks for the upload!
I love how a guy is interviewing a girl and understnding that she has things to say that he doesn't get
For real, we need more interviews like this now
Welcome to the 90s. We were doing pretty good for a while there.
Way to look past the first question of the video lol
Good to see.
Women say all sorts of stuff all the time that men don't get.
Most if not all of the songs on Guyville came from her self-produced Girly-Sound cassettes, which I believe were recorded in 1991. As she says here, the concept of doing a response to the Stones' Exile album came later, and she just chose from the songs she already had. Not that she needed to write new material, because the songs on the Girly-Sound tapes are pretty much the best she ever did. Still, the connection between the two albums was going to be loose at best, because Guyville was not actually written as a response to Exile, just assembled that way. It was a conceptual device for putting an album together, and, perhaps even more important, a good media hook. It served its purposes well.
Exactly about how the album concept was created out of her girly tapes catalog of songs. But along with being a great sales hook, the concept was a perfect framework, song selection and sequencing method. There was just a lot of magic that came together with Guyville
you sound like a real fart smeller .... i mean smart feller ...
@@thanx01 hahahahahah
Kinda wish she wrote more songs like that
I remember listening to the album when it was new, thinking "Liz Phair was born older than her years." This interview makes me think I was correct, she is confident and intelligent in her speech here.
I hung around some art school students in the early 90s and so few of them projected an artistic temperament to me, through quite a few interactions & talks, compared to Liz Phair here.
I suspect she intimidated quite a few guys when she was in her late teens and 20s.
great interview. there was so much mystery around how liz came to be, burst on to the scene, obviously the girly tapes/sound, but liz explains how that all came to be. she is a great artist, the music is holding up well.
God, she is dead gorgeous
This is such a good album. Found this album at Goodwill. I saw her name and then was like, oh, gosh. A bad word in the song title. Have to buy this one. Great interview.
It is so funny how 120 Minutes amd MTV were once such a big part of my week, bit now that is all gone.
In the future all lyrics can be found on the internet.
So sad music doesn’t have this energy to it anymore
she's intelligent polite talented and good looking I'll say that for her
I love Liz Phair.
She’s perfect and amazing. I’ve met her three times through a friend (unbelievably) and we played thumb war all three times. I’m winning 2 to 1.
pics or it didnt happen ..
“It’s the 90s Stevie Nicks, it’s fantastic, it’s brilliant.” That was awesome to read because back when Guyville came out and I was listening to it obsessively, I also had Fleetwood Mac in regular rotation on my CD player and the album cover for Guyville gave me this “indie Stevie” vibe and I liked it.
Such a great idea for writing.
I do this all the time in my head while listening to songs in the car.
Liz is so good looking
Especially at a time when famous musicians like the grunge musicians looked and dressed like homeless people.
Yes
I don’t usually watch celebrity interviews, but I’m so fascinated by her & what she’s created for us. I love Lou Mahlnati’s but she is the better Chicago export.
See? Mtv used to be cool.
barf
Echoes Myron Yes boomer. We know.
@@shecklesmack9563 Yes moron, thanks for your irrelevant opinion.
See? Artists used to write their own songs.
Maybe it's just because the artists were cool back then.
God I love her
I watched this when it first aired.
So did I, and I was (and still am) smitten.
I know everyone's here for Liz and rightly so but I must add that I totally enjoyed Lewis Largent on MTV.
smart & gets it. love this woman
Great to see this - thanks for posting
Little point, but the live song is 6'1 not Never Said
She sang "Never Said" later.
great album👍👍
Her performance is really good
Ok, we all know why we're here. We all had a big crush on her!!!
She says no one knew she played and sang until she was living in San Francisco, but that's a narrative, not literally true; she used to play at the student union when she was attending Oberlin College.
i used to think oberlin was in germany.. ..
@@thanx01 Oh,. ha
But no one paid attention to her then.
He SORT OF understands the relationship between the two albums, but he DOESN'T understand it AT ALL (his words). Bravo Lewis!
We love you
30 years ago. Wow
I'm a sucker for her lucky pretty eyes.
Goddess in every conceivable way
let me burn the candle right down
That-s a live performance of the album opener 6'1", though.
Liz is so cool....i dont recoginize the host but then again i didnt watch much 120 minutes in its day..he sounds a bit like rachtman but he was too rock oriented to be the host of 120..anyone have a clue?..thx
The interviewer in this video? Lewis Largent.
She was the Grace Slick of the 1990’s.
She's still pretty in her 50s now
They don’t make em like that no more.”
6:14 Name checking Tae Won Yu (of Kicking Giant!) Tae Won Yu continues to be a creative giant to this day.
She got much better within 5 years .
"women think I'm tasty/Always tryin' to waste me/help me burn my candle right down"
are these lyrics.... (😍)
Yah...I was kind of disappointed that she didn't even seem to know which song was Tumblin' Dice at first, and didn't know the lyrics but appreciated that she was honest with saying she was as much listening to the sounds and vibe as she was literally listening to all the lyrics.
"I kind of understand it but I don't understand it at all...." #Life
Louis Largent is that you? Also the Rainbow is still there. Probably the only thing left in Wicker Park from the 90s.
Can't believe this is the same girl who made Funstyle
Every great artist is entitled to at least one wtf album.
@@michaelgraham9774 all but two of her albums are wtf albums, unfortunately. I do like “Hey Lou” off the new one.
@@ooglemonster Looking back, her two pop albums are technically competent and well made. Funstyle is the only thing she's put out that is completely irredeemable in my eyes
Idk I like whip smart whitechocolatespacegg AND funstyle...the self titled is fine
Matador whipsmart and exile in guyvile are gold
LOVE THAT KNUCKLE CRACK LIZZZ XD 3:22
HOT!
boy this guy did MUCH better with Liz than Stephen and Bob from Pavement
Liz, your so funny
It's not all "Mick's lyrics" Keith writes them too.
A Walkman??
5:04
8:55
vs mork ??
God shes hot
all ex
who is interviewing Liz? Reminds me of Joe Rogan
Lewis Largent. He was a moron.
Let's hear it for Oberlin. Also went there: Karen O of the Ya-Ya-Yas
Kurt should have married her...or Kim Deal or someone else besides Courtney.
She would have been perfect for Kurt, minus the heroin.
@@reallyretro Liz did heroin? DAMN
@@cinematicpassages8884 NOOO I meant if Kurt didnt have the heroin in his life, they would have worked out good together.
Joe Rogan had so much longer hair in 1994. He's almost not recognizable!
You think that's Joe Rogan?
HAHA.
😂
There are no rules for you
OMG
LP: "I think im doing it ti prove i can play guitar"
ITW: "well you do ok with it.... but you're a good songwriter though"
I MEAN IN WHAT WORLD do you get to say that to her. gtfo of here lil boy.
Wow, Joe Rogan looks so young!
Women think I’m tasty but they’re always trying to waste me and make me burn the candle right down
I thought it was women seem to curse me but they’re always trying to worse me
How come your....whip smart
Oh, the days when men didn't act flirtatious, condescending or threatened when interviewing an attractive, smart woman --especially someone close in age. I didn't even notice how scarce this was until seeing the opposite happen here. It's no one's fault --I think subtle misogyny is just a trend right now. Let's hope it gets uncool soon.
He totally condescended to her when he asked her if she was grateful that she had Brad Wood and Casey Rice to cover up for her shortcomings as a musician. "But you're a great songwriter, though." Meanwhile Brad Wood at the time was effusively praising her abilities as a guitarist (and those abilities are in ample evidence, not just on the early records, but in live videos from 1995 on RUclips).
IN the 90s female were pretty much on par with the males in almost every genre
Nah pretty much every conversation is steeped in rape culture/misogyny/patriarchy since they've become such accepted parts of American culture
You think people were more respectful in the past than they are now... but you don't think that about this interviewer? But misogyny is a trend now, in the present? I'm confused trying to work this out.
@Rose Redd - it's not just about the interviewer. It's also about how Liz Phair comported herself---which was just pretty much in the way as we (women) did at that time. She was simply being a calm normal person, not like she was furious or "feeling unsafe" or "marginalized," expecting to be disrespected and therefore on the defensive, nor over-the-top exaggeration of being "badass," nor being manically provocative, or out to prove anything. She's just a smart, talented, thoughtful, funny, artist talking about her work and process.
YUCK!!! WHY ONLY LEFT SPEAKER!!
Love the album but the claim that it's a song by song response is clearly made up. Made for a good promo though.
That was total horseshit just to sound high minded. Quite feeble, actually.
That drummer should not have a microphone. He sounds so horribly off key and ruins an otherwise great performance.
The band sounds out of tune on this live performance, though. 🥴
Way overrated in every direction
The host is sooooo 'low-key' misogynistic
Funny this is 1994 and things haven't changed much. LOL! We are very good at criticizing history but very bad at learning from it.
Please. What an idiotic statement.
@@beartoffoli9820 Yeah, everyone is so misogynistic now. Sure.
anything past girlysound is such sad and cringey. sad..
Wrong.
This girl talks in circles.....bad music
we all like this Liz better than u. Try and understand why.
Maybe then you wont die completely clueless. Cheeeeeeeerio
Her music is good. But her life before Exile was miserable. Being drunk in Chicago and walking this streets from bar to bar, and dude to dude? No wonder it’s called ‘Excile in Guyville’
