John Lennon said Ringo would have been a star without the Beatles, and I agree. He has such a natural charisma, a great sense of humor, and a passion for music.
I mean his name is Ringo Star even without the Beatles he would always be a Star
David Roberts IIRC he was the first Beatle to have a hit. Had plenty of hits. Didn't vanish right away.
The interviewer asked " why did this happen ? " The response should have been because of the MUSIC.
Lennon and McCartney wrote over 200 songs and Harrison wrote some great ones too. They also added great vocal harmonies. Ringo is a great drummer and personality but .....
@@powerpopaholic876 name the hits .
Vinny D
Haha doing what. He was a mediocre drummer at best. Had the looks of an overdone pizza and will be remembered for his two fingered salute rather than his drumming. He would still be in Liverpool on a council estate sipping his glass of mild every day and in and out of the bookies he was just a passenger along for the ride.
1:35, man ringo was before his time, he knew all along..
lmaoo
Fun fact (not so fun for Ringo) he is now a germaphobe after catching so many viruses and diseases as a young kid and young adult so he was probably doing that to avoid germs spreading.
He knew there'd be wimps like you hiding in your mommy's basement over a mild strain of the flu, huh?
@@rmartin7558 A mild strain of the flu that killed 500,000 Americans
"but he still has his trademark"
That nose
"his sense of humor"
Ooooh. that.
Sense of smell
Have seen the recent Beatles Doc Get Back three times now. Ringo is the best kept secret. Never realized how much went into drumming and he was a drumming god. The beat channeled through him. He was (is) so intelligent, responsive, hilarious, loving. The scene with him playing with Linda McCartney's 5 year old daughter while recording is priceless. Too sweet. He is the starr of that documentary.
agreed
"I LOVE to Play." This is what makes a good musician.
This is what makes a good whoever.
Roger that.
YES -that's right.
John
yes
im glad that he is still healthy
He had very bad health as a child, nearly died. he has been a vegetation long before Paul.
me too
~ "Vegetation?"
So is he!
I mean yea, Paul and Ringo are invincible. They are vegetarians, how bad can their health be? And Ringo looks freaking forty years old, NOT 79!!!
I sat next to him in Studio City, CA. He turned to me and shook my hand, saying, "Hello, my name is Richard." I was utterly Gobsmacked.
T Rohan but he doesn’t shake hands
Bs
T Rohan ...strawberry malingerer forever!!
T Rohan Gobsmacked with a capital "g"? 😱
Hard to believe that.. he does not shake hands with anyone. He is an elbow bump
Ringo hadn't been inducted into the Music Hall of Fame. Paul found out about that and told TPTB that "that just won't do" and promoted Ringo to get the respect he deserved a long time ago. He' in the Hall of Fame now. (about time they corrected their error)
*William found out about that. Still doesn't make him a good person.
Ölsk Zeri bro ive watched multiple different interviews and videos about the beatles over the past couple of hours and you are always in the comments section telling someone that Paul is William. why do you feel the need to tell everyone that? just let it be. Anytime i see a comment talking about Paul you always jab into it saying it is William. Why is it such a big deal to you that people need to believe what you believe?
@@zarnold3409 hahaha you just schooled him so hard
@@olskzeri2723
Hi olsk, who killed Kennedy? All the Beatles died in a car crash in 1962, not '66, okay. Get it right, troll. You really got a hold on me when you get it wrong. Release me.
Ölsk Zeri
You again?
Still spreading your stupidity. Conspiracy nut.
Amazing to watch this I was lucky enough to be on the production crew during this interview...at exactly 14:10 you can see my hand in the background waving!! After the interview Peter Mansbridge fired me on the spot!! It was bloody worth it! Peter, if you are reading this you are a hoser!
Yea, and before that there's someone on the right on frame, looks like adding up the money on the cash register - who was THAT?
I actually noticed that the first time around
Why did you get fired
@@lucassmith15 because he waved his hand..
Another thing I wanted to mention: I had just arrived in the US alone from Cuba at a very young age- I was sent to live with distant relatives that, let's, just say, it was not a picnic- Shortly afterwards, our beloved President was assassinated- The country was truly in mourning and we all knew that life as it was once was would never be again. Then, on February 6, 1965 you guys arrived in NYC, and eliminated all the sadness and darkness! The fabulous Beatles! You brought such happiness, joy, unity, peace and love! You gave us the feeling that nothing was impossible to achieve! What a wonderful childhood you and your music gave me and all I knew! Love you, Ringo, George, Paul and John forever! Best to you, your beautiful wife Barbara and all your family and loved ones! Thank you!
64
I don't know why, but I thought JFK died later in the decade. I never realized that important timing! I'm sorry for all you've had to go through, but jealous you were able to witness the Beatles phenomenon when it was happening.
The Beatles toured America in 1965 but arrived for the first time in 1964, less than three months after the president's assassination. Like you said, wonderful timing.
Can't Believe he was Narrator of first Thomas the Tank Engine series.
+Links595 Why can't you believe it?
It's a colloquialism - he means he appreciates the fact.
Here also narrated Series two of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends.
Mr. Chopsticks I don't know about him but I grew up with Thomas the train and I loved the voice of the narrator. I became a full beatlemaniac about a month ago and today I found out he was the narrator so I was extremely supprised.
Believe me i can, my kids where around the time he was doing it lol
For a man who had a sickly childhood you could say he has beaten the odds.
This man has lived through Michael Jackson, Elvis, Freddie Mercury, Whitney Houston, Madonna, Journey, Stevie Wonder, Quincy Jones, James Brown, Chuck Berry, Frank Sinatra and hundreds more. He has seen it all. What a life.
I love how the beatles went from being One Direction to Pink Floyd in a span of just 5 years
More like 2 or 3 years if you compare the Ed Sullivan era with say Tomorrow Never Knows and Revolver album.
Hard to believe Ringo is 75,man.He looks great,for a guy his age,maybe 55. :)
+Foolishpleazure Like he said in the interview "Everyone over 40 was like a grandpa when i was young,and you don,t know until it you are there".Just goes to show that when"normal" older folks use their age as an excuse for something.....I mean it,s less about how Ringo looks than the vitality and the agility he has. No amount of money ,or fame or cosmetic surgeons can buy that.
+ThE WEeK iN ReArViEw! You have to redefine what is JOB means to you. You mean 9-5 or 8 hours daily job? Of course, he didn't. He works as a musician.
oo1ooo1oo
I know what I am watching it in.and i know what age he looks,to me,anyway.mayve not to kids who dont know any better...
He never held a job? Gosh, you are so fucking stupid. It was one hell of a job to be in the Beatles, you have no idea how hard they worked, you fucker.
relax
So down-to-earth, so humble, so genuine. And he's 79 almost 80, I can't believe he doesn't look it still!
Ringo said I love John George and Paul I can't leave tonight I'll leave Saturday
What a dear sweet human.
Ae! Sweet! What a dhruman!
fnutboy yeah , agreed !! Peter Mansbridge is the best
Anyone else notice the Yoko Ono book right behind the interviewer next to Ringos book?😂
Bruce Wendell No I never noticed the obvious book in the video.
Bruce Wendell no not until you pointed it out! How interesting
Yuk, Yoko.....the only thing she ever accomplished was to marry a Beatle....
No, but I was McCartney on the wall!!! Appears he may or may not be dead. Or not...
Yeah I did notice the Yoko thing that looks like it's been knocked up on a photocopier lol
Ringo is the "beat" in the Beatles!
Nice one!
And The Beat Goes On
i always thought it was john lmaooo
Ringo is a real Starr
he looks like a man in his 50's... he takes care of himself.
behave. 60s
djKally son cash is one hell of a nutrient
He had gray hair in his 20s, so try to imagine him with solid gray hair now. I think he would look his age then.
Yeh I agree. He looks his age. His brown hair and beard is out of a bottle which does take at least 10 years off people who would otherwise have white hair. I notice that Macca has started to let a little white hair show now - good thing, he was starting to look like the mother in the chair in Psycho.
lol, Macca from Psycho. Too much black dye doesn't work on anyone's aging look.
I met him yesterday. We shook hands for 5 minutes straight, talked about the Beatles, and he signed ALL my Beatles albums and bootleg albums!!
I'm Jeleous
That's a lie because Ringo only bumps elbows lol
I met him as well. He invited me to dinner, told me all about the beetles and signed my entire record collection. Then he invited me on stage to sing with his band and asked me to join his all Starr band.
Lol to all of your pathetic encounters. When *I* met Mr. Starr, he not only shook my hand and signed my bootlegs, but he took me to the Island of Sodor to meet Henry the Edgar-Allen-Poe-ed Engine, and then gave me a personal tour of the Octopus's Garden!
@@lizzychrome7630 Man, you should've seen them kicking Edgar Allen Poe!
No one :
Ringo: ✌️ 👁 👃 👁 ✌️
DEAR RINGO. I HAVE BEEN A BEATLE FAN SINCE 1964>> YES WE PLAYED MANY BEATLE SONGS> GOD YOU FOUR JOHN,PAUL, GEORGE ,RINGO WAS OUR IDOLS IN OUR BAND DAYS EVEN TILL TODAY>> YES I HAVE VERY FOND MEMORIES OF THE BEATLES* THE BEATLES Music ERA that lasted less than ten years> TODAY AT 66 years of AGE* I CAN STILL SAY WE LOVE YOU BEATLES> MY TEARS FLOW DOWN BECAUSE WE LOST JOHN AND GEORGE, AND OUR MEMORIES ARE ALL GOLDEN> IN MY LATER YEARS AT 19>> I WAS WISHING* THAT YOU GUYS WILL COME TO MALAYSIA> AND STILL TODAY I WISH TO MEET UP WITH YOU AND PAUL> THIS WILL BE MY DREAM> IN LIFE> GOD BLESS YOU AND PAUL>. AND GOD BLESS THE SOULS OF JOHN AND GEORGE , BEATLES FOREVER* >>>
Lawrence Kedz, wrong, you can meet Pete Best; he was an original Beatle.
person: So do you listen to the beatles?
me: no actually, we're just good friends.
Freddie mercury is that you lol
How’d you find America?
@@judycation turn left at Greenland.
Quick, before our zany president tries to buy it, again!
He and George were the most straight across and real.
Well some fans (on Tumblr and Fanfic. net) aren't so sure about the "straight" part.
@@lizzychrome7630 well, that's really fukin absurd.
As they were both water signs
No. John told everything to the media. The bad and the good things. Thats why a lot of people hate him cus the others just hid the bad things
idk ❤️ John
Ringo seems like the "nicest" Beatle
+Secret Secretsson He is.
Secret Secretsson Nicest living one. Him and George were the nicest of the beatles, but Id say George was the nicest
Sympatisk and nicest.
Tough call, people often say it is George. Then again they were the very best of friends. Goes to show
George was the nicest and most fascinating Beatle.
Ringo is my favorite Beatles followed closely by Harrison, imagine meeting these guys in the early day pre 66, what a true treasure this guy is.
Ringo, day-um, life has held you in its arms well. I'm one of the original fans...and admire all the work you've done since. Thank you for all you've created and done, and sharing your history. Ta!
Ringo says it all when he says"l love to play!" It doesn't matter what you do in life,what matters is that your happy with what your doing!🎸🎶🎧🎙️🎹💕
9:14 what the hell was that? 😂
Vincent Adriaanse 😂😂😂
That should be a meme
I'm laughing so hard and it's night😂😂
Now that you've said that, I've listened to it 332 times. :)
Vincent Adriaanse It was a laugh
What's not to love?!? Ringo gives the answers you want to hear with real candour. Thank you Mr Starr- you are a star
Ringo has always been my very fav Beatle. He’s ‘79 now & still going strong, always witty, bright & smiling. Luv Ringo.
great interview. lovely photography
Great interview? When an interviewer asks any "What's your favourite...." questions, they get an automatic fail. It's lazy and it's not journalism. It's something a grade fiver would ask.
Ringo, and I say this with great affection, was, is, and always will be the ultimate hippie!
He's the Last of the Hippies!
'They were exciting times.'
Isn't it sad to think that no one will ever be as incredible and legendary as the beatles?
looking back, their music might seem pretty normal to a lot of people but they were so talented, charismatic and way ahead of their time!
you wouldn't thing the interviewer is 67 here, and Ringo's 75.
It depends how old are you
Nah man Peter mansbridge is less wrinkled
Thank you Ringo, because of you I play drums!!! Peace and love!!!!!
I remember after the Beatles broke up he did some interviews and was obviously drunk so I'm glad he got it together and lives a healthy lifestyle.
David Stutz
Alcohol-free since 1989!
I love Ringo. First interview I have ever heard. Who knew how important he was to the others. His sense of humor really made an old lady smile. I will order your book today! I love photos like that! Keep drumming!
What an artist, gentleman and legend! Loved this positive interview- thank you!
11:50 I love how blunt Ringo answers "No."
Some people have already forgotten how blunt John Lennon could be; but maybe that’s good
...the way he should've worded the question is " so some of your favorite songs ....what comes to mind ? "
Excellent! Instead of getting angry, that's much better. Just like we Germans.
Me too. That was so sweet❤
Because he had the least to say.
In 2015 they said that guy never shakes hands. Ringo was a visionary.
I don't hate or dislike the other Beatles, but I've always thought Ringo to have the best and most genuine sense of humor.
Ringo looks good for his age! Broccoli and blueberries.
David Roldan broccoli is posionous
All that peace and love.
Nadeska Hairline Tell that to all the body builders and UFC fighters...I’ll wait
@@nadeskahairline4333 not really though
😭
SO DOWN TO EARTH, LOVE HIM.
Trying to imagine growing up sans Beatles. No thank you. "Rain" is a MasterClass. One of the sexiest guys alive. What a sense of humour. Smart.... Have never met him, but he seems to have a lot of integrity. Thank God for the 'All Stars', etc. etc. etc. Hope to see you in heaven Ringo, I have a coupla questions that only you can answer. I love John and Paul, but for me it was you and George. You two held down the fort.
Nice interview. Sobering up really helped bringing Ringo back. This is fun ❤️
Ringo has been sober since around 1979.
He looks incredibly young for his age. Great sense of humor.
loved him back when they took the world by storm...still do. peace and love to you Ringo.
One of the best people ever. People don't know how much he innovated drumming. Grip, tuning, timing, placement (on a stand front-and-center). His timing was perfect without a metronome. And just the sweetest soul in rock-n-roll. When Ringo dies: Gandhi Ji Status. International Treasure. Oh, and Ringo was the first Beatle Americans embraced. We got him immediately. He hasn't changed that much.
Great stuff Ritchie.. We Love You..!! Keep playing 😁
The Beatles are legendary and will be remembered forever!!!!! GREATEST BAND THAT EVER LIVED!!!!!
Totally right!
And the greatest band that ever will! I became a teenager (13) in the week that the Beatles appeared on Ed Sullivan. It has defined my life. All 4 Musical genii. And all 4 from the same grubby blue-collar town, when Britain had saved the world but was still an economic basket case. They single-handedly (quadri-handedly?) launched the post-war world. Elvis was amazing, but didn't change average people's lives like the Beatles. The threat of nuclear annihilation didn't even change people's lives like the Beatles. It still amazes me.
Queen is
Hannan Ducky 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
awww the girl at 10:49. I would probably react the same as her if i ever met a beatle tbh.
I am so glad that at 75 he is still to mentally sharp and still has that wonderful sense of humor because laughter can carry you into a longer life with much happiness. I hope that he will go on many more years and will always have that wonderful smile. Peace and Love Ringo.
I love Ringo. He's an amazing person.
Still love Ringo Starr!
it's time for Sir Ringo
MartinIDavies Saint Ringo
yes it is high time
long overdue
MartinIDavies curious what deems one to be called a sir like paul , elton, cliff richards
Royalty, Sheri For. But it happened this year. Prince William knighted Sir Ringo a month or two ago.
He was and still is my favorite drummer of all time. Peace and love every body
The master of the “understated” drum fill. He was perfect in his contributions and fit the drums in just as perfectly as the other instruments and vocals.
Love love love Ringo, if it wasn't for the man I probably wouldn't have been a drummer and I'm still playing at 63 years young.....Peace Ringo. Oh and I am Canadian
gord gibson
And youre probably a better drummer. Keep it going
Ringo: (Breathes)
Interviewer: *wHEeZe*
Ringo steals other men's life-force to stay young.
Just saw him in Windsor. He looked and sounded fantastic! Thank you Ringo for a great show!!
Love him... I play drums because of him. I go to his shows when I can afford to and they are always great.
Matt Josephson ....dont ask him for an autograph!...the grump will curse you off!
“I loved that front line” ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Ringo for such a great interview.
I love his accent and sense of humor, I could listen to him tell stories all day. Great ingerview.
4:41 I knew I wouldn't make it through this without hearing him say Peace and Love
Saw him in concert last night. He was in great form, and he has the perfect house band. Highly recommended
I sooo LOVE Ringo. He's so real, unpretentious.
My favorite musician, by far. His answer to top ten favorite songs was spot on. I have about 500 top ten songs in my list ! I was lucky enough to see Ringo back in the 1980's at the national 4th of July celebration concert in DC with the Beach Boys. I'd love to see him in concert with the All Star Band. My 3 favorite Ringo solo songs are the No No Song, Sixteen and Photograph. I need to collect his solo stuff again - I used to have it all on vinyl. I guess he's beyond the No No stuff if he's into the twigs and berries diet. Good for him ! I hope he lives to see his century mark.
Great interview, he was always underrated in the early going. It wasn't til later on, after the breakup that he was even thought of as an artist. He's still going strong, I really hope to see him perform again at least once more before there's no more touring. Long live Ringo, "Peace and Love".
10:49 lmfao😂
“...and I kissed him, and ʰᵉ ʷᵃˢ ˢᵒ ᵍᵒᵒᵈ ᵃᵇᵒᵘᵗ ᶦᵗ”
9:13 - That squeaky laugh!
I don't blame Ringo for not shaking hands. Shaking hands should have gone out with the last century. It's a wonderful way to pass germs from one person to another. The Beatles were all so funny and quick. So smart.
Love the inspirational story about the woman giving him a drum. It shows that even a small gesture of kindness to a young child can make a world of difference.
"If I needed money I wouldn't be in Canada."
Why not use Ringo's song, Photograph in this piece?
Tony Haines, because the show probably couldn’t afford buying the rights to the song, even though it’s one of his
Look at this photograph!
I saw another interview where Richard said he really loved to take pictures with his smartphone
God bless you Ringo. you have been and still are a class act. wishing you many more years of playing and happiness
A very nice interview! Long Live Ringo and the Beatles! ✌♥️🎼
Ringo is and always will be the best drummer ever to me. I'm trying to find some full concerts of his since his tours never come anywhere near me. Any ideas?? I pulled one up but it wouldn't play. Using RUclips, do I need to search some other place?? Help me if you can, I'm feeling down but I do appreciate you being 'round !!
You'd be better off just buying his DVDs. If you're hellbent on having the shows being in full, I'd reccomend beginning with 2006 and going up from there
Best drummer ever? You got that right! For anyone who doubts, listen to the CDs - remastered or not, you will be convinced.
At the risk of sounding like a creeper, I love that he's got lighter glasses so you can see his unique eyes here! And more to that point, I overall adore Ringo for never getting a nose job or changing his accent.
I agree--he's so cute & charming just like he is!
Beautiful blue eyes
Such a wonderful human being he is adorable !
Gotta love Ringo 💗
Living legend. There aren't many left now...
Kutta Kyte
Whats it like living on mars
Humorous, thoughtful, real.... Ringo
Great interview. The old Ringo ( Beatles ) humor is still there.
I love Sir Ringo's drum style. Others have tried to follow some a little but Ringo is my favorite. His use of the top-hat... Wow. Love his photography Thanks Ringo....
From the beginning, Ringo was always my favorite Beatle.
Merry Christmas and peace/love!
Such a Great Man ! My wife and I were in NYC 2005 early morning 8:30ish walking around and wandered into a park after hearing music , not too many people , Stage Set Up - The Today Show I believe & it was Ringo & Band Live on TV !! we stayed , saw the whole thing , A Very Nice Surprise !!
Happy Birthday Ringo Peace an Love ......
The cool Beatle.
*****
Without him they would not have made it.
Pete Best could not keep the beat.
Opportunists usually go for what is already successful and The Hurricanes were bigger than the Beatles at the time.
They we’re all the cool Beatle. But when he joined the band, he had left the biggest band in Liverpool, he had a nice car, a beard and he was older than even John. Pretty cool Beatle.
@@wildsmiley John and Ringo were the 'coolest' Beatles. Imho. 😎✌
Ringo was the classiest Beatle
Howlinblind Muddyslim
LoL, really !! Lol
I love Ringo so much. He is my idle and always will be. I am a drummer too and would love to meet him, I honestly would do anything in my power to meet him. I know I’m only 15 but the Beatles changed my life. Love them so much and changed the world of music to this day. LOVE YOU RINGO PEACE AND LOVE MAN
Great interview! Even got a hand in there waving in the background at 14:11. Gotta love Ringo Starr!
Ringo was the key. The last piece in the most charismatic group in history.
Tell RINGO thank him for tagging my poem the weeping willow tree and the Rose May God talk care of my babies !
Such a great vibe surrounding anything about the Beatles
WHAT A TREASURE??? (At 75, he looks and sounds like a man in his 50s!!!) So self-effacing, (or at least not egotistical...) so normal, confident, relaxed, HAPPY??? SUCH A NICE GUY!!! (More importantly, as a SINGER, you can get away with having a bad day if you're a singer, guitarist or bassist... YOU CAN'T if you're the drummer...) Drummers are what EVERYTHING in a song is built upon...) Ringo is a ROCK, in every way... AMAZING artist and musician... xx SF
