Did I not see Brian in his teen years in a photo wearing a Rush T-shirt? No, I did. No Mandela effect. Makes me like him even more!

UNDEFEATED.

so sexy and charming

Love Waits but I hate the video quality here.

props to bill on a few things. His questions truly reflect what concerned parents thought of manson at that time, they seem silly now but this is good journalism. He got manson to try to counter every general concern about him. He also doesn't go at manson himself and instead talks about the potential ripple effects of his music. He seems to understand the difference between manson's intent and what people are hearing. Hes not throwing any gotcha questions either. Love or hate him, this interview shows good principles of journalism only with a conservative bias (which is the audience that would even watch this). We all found out more about marilyn manson because of this interview.

MANSON Is such an intelligent man. Bill you can't hold a light to this guy!! G.o.a.t

Peter Cook , the funniest human that ever lived.

I hope this guy is in heaven

Thats what ali had

Why is his name Parkinson

Hmm, I always thought MM sold waaaaay more than 5m records. AC superstar came out when I was in 8th and it was massive. Very good interview. So intelligent

He speaks very well.. and I’m sure that really bothers alot of people

TIME TO TELL THE TRUTH. Ali was a great boxer and a charismatic figure. But his racial views were toxic. He believed in segregation and opposed miscegenation at a time when mixed race couples faced real discrimination. He was an outspoken member of the racist Nation of Islam. Excuses are made for Ali's racism - 'it was the context of the time, he was a black man in America etc' - but why did other prominent black fighters not also spout out the same divisive race-baiting? But try telling these truths and you get shouted down by those who would prefer blind idolatry to objective and empirical truths. Parkinson was a great interviewer and I am pleased he put Ali on the spot with some of this stuff.

Both proper tripping out of their heads on here and can't speak properly lol🤯😇

I had a crush on him as a kid 😭

1:17 His friend was Anton LaVey.

Idk why they’re treating Tom as if they’re so much better than him…its simply not true. Ughh. How horrible!

I owe my life to Muhammad Ali since 1974 when I first heard him speak on the BBC Michael Parkinson show , and now I fight Parkinson’s disease in his honour.

I called Ali a big sissy once!!, and, then I knocked him out cold!!!, Then when I challenged him to a rematch!!!!???, he was absolutely terrified folks!!!, THEN!!!, I WOKE UP!!!😂😂😂😂

He hit a nerve with Ali, as great as he was, Parkinson' should not have been looking for a headline and upset Ali, which he did because Ali was extremely easy going

"We don't want you to become a shambling wreck" We really didn't. What a horror show. RIP Ali and RIP Parkinson.

looks like billy shears!

Peter cook really was a genius

Time passes fast. RIP to the greatest and sir Parkinson.

He fought again after struggling to touch his nose? Bloody hell...

They both died from Parkinson's disease.

Yeah infact I do have photos of him Mohammed Ali,

Only sportsmen to outgrow his sport. Truly a great, watched this over 10 times and I can keep watching this. Muhammad Ali’s life story is truly a remarkable story. Legends never die

Such an influential TV figure, who interviewed all the great movie era stars, and inspired so many journalists. You are missed already, Sir Michael.

"A bloated caricature" .. cruel very cruel

I Loved watching how superior Ali was to the entire human race ..during these interviews with Parkinson

RIP Sir Michael Parkinson (March 28, 1935 - August 16, 2023), aged 88 And RIP Muhammad Ali (January 17, 1942 - June 3, 2016), aged 74 You both will be remembered as legends.

A gift to the world

Rip Parkinson ❤

They both up there now having a laugh. Rip Paul❤️

RIP MICHAEL PARKINSON 😢

R.I.P. Sir Michael Parkinson .. the best interviewer ever on TV

RIP Parkinson. Their next interview will be in the afterlife.

Rip to both these legends

Just heard of Michael’s passing too. RIP. Two great men.

My family said I made it up when I remembered having a comic strip bible for Christmas one year!!! Finally! At 70 lol! I can show them I hadn’t lost my marbles lol! Thanks for sharing! 😋😂

Honestly, the Fox narrative at the time didn't do Bill O'Reilly's calm intelligence and humour justice. Dude deserves way more respect than people give him IMO

Every interview with a mancunian artist all have the same vibes. Chilled and dont give a fk

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.❤❤ I Pray this blesses you in Jesus name amen

Wow! I wanted to see this specific clip tonight, part of a Tom Waits look back I have been doing lately. I remember the "seamy" accusation, saw this when it was originally broadcast. I knew it was a daytime talk show, but couldn't recall the host's name. So, I looked up talk show hosts of the 70s and 80s. I saw Mike Douglas then did a YT search for an interview with him. Presto! Thanks for sharing this gem! Peace.

In the 1970s the university my late father taught at had an annual Faculty Follies where he played the deputy head in this sketch. I wish it had been recorded.

Still my favorite line: “The great train robbery in fact involved no loss of train; merely the contents of the train …” 😆

Man this is the wrong place to get tired 😂

Everybody's loved him,I'm sure he was an Angel,it so sad to look at🙏🙏♥️
