I almost cry when I heard Vince telling that relationship through all thesse years with Andy is made by an mutual and reciprocal respect. Love these guys. Constant part of my life.

[@Slambam73]

Yes; it was a beautiful testament to their friendship and work relationship!

[@BillAnt]

Well yeah, A Little Respect goes a long way (a lil' pun intended there). :) At 3:43 Andy's talking about how electronic music grabbed him in his teens, I can honestly say that I had the same experience when browsing through a record store finding Yaz, DM, then Erasure. It just grew on me, even though in the US at the time heavy metal ruled the airwaves. lol

[@metsot]

Andy mentioned "You Surround Me" - what a great song that is.

[@wallacelovecraft8942]

It's so rare to see band members still be genuine friends for so long.

[@MA-iridium]

These boys are to be blamed for being part of many happy moments in my life and to always provide so many joyful meaningful times I have gone through!!! God bless Vince and Andy.... always!!!!

[@stiffmeister0802]

I’ve noticed that all videos with Erasure have very few or quite often zero dislikes….such great guys and such a good band.

[@MrTheunivideo]

Sweetest, most wonderful people. Andy is totally on his own planet. I love them so much.

[@SimonLeeds]

Love interviews where it feels so open and natural where people don’t seem to be hiding who they are or are just there to promote or sell.

[@MattBridger]

Great to hear them acknowledge the obvious Soft Cell influence.

[@ianfielding6840]

I'm absolutely in awe of Andy and vince there are so natural and down to earth no heirs and graces I utterly love the music got all the albums seen in concert countless times they songs are true to life especially the track hideaway from the circus I swear to god that song saved me first time I heard this song the lyrics hit me like a steam train ripped through me like a knife Andy literally gave me the courage to come out as he sings you don't have to hideaway Im now so happy I'm now with my boyfriend who I adore

[@santiagosebastiansuarez]

Amazing interview. I heard the story of Andy's audition a hundred times but they told new things here. I edit my comment, this is one of the best Erasure interviews ever.

[@Synthematix]

The first ever electronic track i heard as a 9 year old was Yazoo - Only You, as soon as i heard that in the pub where my dad used to take me i was absolutely hooked on the synthesizer, and still am.

[@angelakelly339]

[@JoeyXSmith]

29:20 - 29:32 Andy look like that he was about to cry when talking about gay scene in San Francisco. You can see pain in his face, remembering all the people that had gone.

[@SimonLeeds]

❤️

[@micimaca80]

I hope he doesn't shave for a while. I like bearded Andy. So cute 😍

[@steveharaslin3822]

Nice beard Andy.

[@noratapia4401]

Q linda entrevista. Me gustaria verla en español o subtitulada. Algo entiendo, pero pierdo algunas cosas

[@daveevans2812]

Amazing job hi guys David T.O. x

[@daveevans2812]

X

[@videomaster8580]

Bong!

[@Leoborgesgato]

O tempo foi cruel com eles.

[@eumesmo2381]

Kkkkkk...Quantos vc acha que eles tem.

[@brincandocommp9568]

O tempo fez muito bem eles cantam melhor que antes

[@vanessankcellnobtchute9120]

O Andy tá com 59 anos (fez anivérsário dia 25/04), e acho q ele tá ótimo. Por ele sempre ter tido o rosto gordinho, acho q ele envelheceu menos que o Vince. E o Vince deve ser meio descuidado com proteção solar... Mas ele é rico, se quiser pode fazer um preenchimento com ácido hialurônico ou gordura pra recuperar um pouco o volume.

[@natsumusachihiroaki]

As musicas bacanas mas vejam depois de anos a idade chega e o cara ainda rosca sozinho todo maney que ganho vai para os novinhos kkkkkkk e o cumulo da hipocresia morrer sozinho sem familia sem ninguel por perto amor verdadeiro deve ser muito triste ne

[@parasutadiguma]

Gay , he prefer boys....

[@nathanfarias1051]

Andys voice is tired and sour .. too much touring .. production is muddled .. songwriting stale.. nightbird violet flame and self titled album erasure still best

[@ianfielding6840]

How dare you slag the boys off there are amazing down to earth people no airs graces at all best band ever I fucking love them
