I love that he thanked her for her time at the end. A simple gesture, but speaks volumes.

[@1075TheRiverNashville]

And he thanked me a second time after the camera was off! He was such a gem. - Ricki

[@youngdylan5083]

Thank you 🙏

[@juliette__]

I love him, he's always so genuine and real, no bs, no airs and graces, no rock star attitude, he has one of the greatest voices of our time yet he is just like the rest of us, he's very open about his struggles, his mental health, his life, plus he has the best sense of humour, so funny and sweet...........the lady interviewing him was awesome, she asked some great questions and was by far the best person I've seen ever interview him, she was sweet, adorable, funny and she did her research on him, she is wonderful and I hope she goes far in the industry, she has the best attitude for it, really lovely lady xx

She wants to be an actress so i have a bad feeling about it ... hope shes not usind him

[@forgottengold3861]

@@SN-so1prWhy do so many ppl love him greatly yet ppl also question someone genuinely loving him. 😑 Not cool.

[@irenedemarco1354]

I had 4 years of silence, so i failed to discover his music.... what a voice.... And i have seen the clip where his Tourettes gets the better of him on stage... he was amazing and kept it together... Hes so funny and basic and has a great friendship with Ed Sheeran from what i gather..... I will be following his music....hes fantastic.

[@imonearthnow1903]

First REAL interview I've heard in years. Awesome.

[@paulinemoriarty3627]

I watched the documentary and it was fantastic, real, no glossing over life’s troubles Well done

[@lorrainedevlin6409]

I was crying,but it has a happy ending when Lewis gets some fantastic help with tourettes. I think it showed how Lewis was very brave to go through all this,yet still do well in his singing career and carry on working hard,that takes great strength well done Lewis. I can see y your parents worry about your health, but I bet they are so very proud of you also and you should be proud too. ❤❤❤

[@taraqueen58]

Loved the documentary and I must confess I cried

[@MartaRC32]

I cried in the end and in some moments when his mom talks about her sister... The documentary is a lesson to all of us to not take anything for granted in life...

[@parkviewmo]

Great interview, Ricki! I could tell that Lewis liked your respect for him, doing your homework, a great remarks about the vocabulary in his lyrics. Hope he got his stomach calmed down before the concert!

[@1075TheRiverNashville]

Thank you so much! I appreciate it more than you know. 🙂 I think his stomach felt better during the concert. He sounded amazing, even if it didn’t! Hahah. - Ricki

[@CC0420BB]

It's great to watch a interview where he's on the receiving end of a great interviewer with legitimate, wholesome and honest questions. They are having fun! Some of the interviews that I've seen with him are short, vague and the questions don't have any real substance. Mostly about drama. This interview was refreshing to watch. As for his Netflix documentary, I love it! I'm watching it again. I must say though that I feel that Netflix didn't promote his documentary well in the states and for the first "half day" of airing it the documentary wasn't even showing up on Netflix. Also, I feel that USA Netflix appears to not show his documentary in anything. Not in the New Release section. Not in the Trending section. Not in the Top Ten section. Not anywhere. I've had to search his Documentary several times. I keep watching it not only because I'm a fan but also so I can find it faster and easier. I'm disappointed with Netflix over this. I think that Netflix should do better by him and his documentary. It's a disgrace to him and his fans. Lewis Capaldi's documentary is one of the best that I've seen. A must watch!

[@1075TheRiverNashville]

Thank you for the compliment! I watched the doc this weekend and it was so well done. It's refreshing to see someone be honest and real about their struggles. I get now why it was hard for him to watch back. -- Ricki

[@pennyjayemartin6343]

Love this interview! She's so natural and fun.

Lewis is an intelligent guy. It comes through in his music and when you hear him in a serious conversation.

Yes! It is real and raw! What courage it takes to not give up, or give in!

[@itsLindsayJean]

Loved the documentary.

[@BellyLaugher]

I only wished you'd had more time-such a great video. This was so much fun b/c of how you well you each rolled with it--kind of like a good improv scene--only since this was real➡even better. Bringing up the "full circle" topic was wonderful--I didn't know that back story & it's very cool (thanks for all the time/energy you put into "stalking") imo:Your enjoyment of this process is contagious & seemed entertaining/enjoyable for Lewis, as well❣

[@1075TheRiverNashville]

😊 I wish I had more time, too! Maybe next time! I really do love when I get the chance to interview so I’m happy that that comes through in the moment/for everyone watching. Thank you so much for watching and leaving such a nice comment. - Ricki

I saw a documentary about Tourette syndrome a while ago and swearing a lot is part of the syndrome as well...

[@1075TheRiverNashville]

Love how honest and real he is!!

[@lorrainedevlin6409]

It must be nice for famous people to get attention in America but when you are a pop artist,just wanting a bit peace,its not easy. Sill its good that you took a break strait away,as soon as you felt unwell and overwhelmed. Take care Lewis.

[@lorrainedevlin6409]

Lol lol lol . I love how he turns every interview in to a funny one,thats great. Aww Lewis there are some nice ginger peoplein the world. I get how you feel about Edd after what he did to you.

[@lorrainedevlin6409]

It is clever,that song writting magic. Your too nice Lewis to cry over someone who never loved you. A relationship is a 2 way thing.

[@drift516]

Make a nice couple these 2 and she seams to settle him a very good sine what a guy and what a singer respect lewis ❤‍🔥👌

[@j4miee]

Wasted interview with the cheap camera / microphones

[@1075TheRiverNashville]

Not everyone has the money for those things. Should you ignore opportunities because of that factor or should you focus on being engaging and thoughtful while asking questions so that you can give the best interview with the little bit that you have? I chose the second option and I’ll choose it 300x over. 🤗 thanks for watching! - Ricki
