Marriott Meets Sarah Cracknell | An interview with Saint Etienne

[@undrentide1972]

Met her in Oxford on Saturday and what a down to earth lovely person is. She chatted like we'd known her for ages. Much respect!

[@BoysOnFilm]

She really is a lovely woman.

[@undrentide1972]

Phil Marriott we had a nice chat about Siouxsie Sioux of all people :)

[@BoysOnFilm]

What a brilliant person to have a discussion about! My queen!

[@undrentide1972]

Phil Marriott she's mine too! The conversation came about cos I was wearing a Siouxsie tshirt

[@BoysOnFilm]

I love it. What did Sarah say about Siouxsie? Is she a fan?

[@kevinrazban8906]

She’s so amazing and British. I loved her and the band’s music from the beginning (30 years ago?! Oh my god). I saw her in California during one of their lightening quick stateside tours. Very happy to have enhanced my life and musical taste by St. Etienne.

[@user-sm7og6fi3j]

I can't believe the amount of idiots who are commenting on how "old" Sarah Cracknell looks. I hope I look as good as her at 52.

[@davedawn3028]

What a lovely interview I have just stumbled across on this mid December evening. Saint Etienne are one of my favourite bands and with Sarah who is just one of the nicest and down to earth female lead singers out there.

[@colinlangley4475]

I can't believe how fast time has flown. She was like a high school crush for me and i am gay as bag of butterflies. One of my favourite bands of all time.

[@BoysOnFilm]

'gay as a bag of butterflies'. I've never heard that before, but I quite like it!

[@stuartalbery1206]

Colin Langley me too ❤️❤️❤️

[@yournamehere6002]

I'm as straight as a bag of hammers and I had a crush on her too

[@Me97202]

That “bag of butterflies” line made my day.

[@mmtot]

That my friend is just how fine she was.

[@Mohamed-yp9fv]

Lovely person, rare intelligence, very human. One would listen to her for hours as a close person.

[@BoysOnFilm]

She’s such a lovely person with a sparkling talent. Witty, too.

[@ifanmorgan8070]

So not expecting that deep speaking voice

[@BrooksterMax]

Thank you, enjoyed this. Some interesting anecdotes and great to hear more Saint Etienne still on the way.

[@turboslag]

I was introduced to St Et in about 1995 by a girl I was trying to date, which didnt happen but hey ho, and it was a revelation! I was so overcome with their unique style and sound that I went straight out and bought all their cd's. I still play them often. Then there is Sarah, wont say I love her as I I have never even met her but phwoar, she was and is delightful.

[@rabit818]

She is delightful.

[@NEWCASTLE-UNITED-1892]

Still stunning

[@paulm4433]

She's not a spring chicken anymore she looks all of 50 but she sounds great on the albums!

[@chrismorrison2805]

She is peerless. There is absolutely no one like her. Longevity, consistent ascension of musical prowess, class, humility and fun without ever sounding preachy or arrogant. This is the only band in music history as far as I'm concerned, can truly be anything you wish them to be. They are stars above us and stars below us. Thank you Phil Marriott for this post.

[@BoysOnFilm]

Thank you Chris! It was great to meet Sarah.

[@saturninenight]

This album came outta nowhere for me and I quite think I'm their number 1 fan. Running out to get the c.d. come payday.

[@BoysOnFilm]

It's a great album! Thanks for getting in touch.

[@dixienormous6969]

Whatta beautiful woman with a beautiful voice!!!!

[@BoysOnFilm]

Absolutely!

[@nickywilks7928]

I would love to look and sound like Sarah cracknell.

[@Me97202]

Sarah is aging like fine wine. ❤️

[@BoysOnFilm]

She's gorgeous.

[@crozwayne]

Sarah is absolutely lovely, her husband is a very lucky man, imagine her being in your life? blissful!

[@friendlier]

Terrific!

[@BoysOnFilm]

friendlier 😄

[@cwlang]

I left her all for you.

[@basehead617]

Wow, I saw an interview with her only 3-4 years ago and she looked nearly the same as the old days.. she has clearly aged here (not that there’s anything wrong with that)

[@BoysOnFilm]

bh617 Ageing is the one thing that none of us can avoid!

[@spumemonk11]

The worried parachutes?

[@DsComicColours]

Still a really beautiful woman.

[@georgemeller7173]

i dont know about mark sarah says hes lovely but a person who cut my hair a few years back said hes an a hole (she was sacked by my regular salon btw)

[@purplecat3656]

Her face looks very swollen!

[@rabit818]

We all grow old, and that includes you.

[@BASSER81]

You like look you've been exhumed from the grave after 3 months...since we're commenting.

[@4444sinners]

Astonishing comment. Well done you.

[@nmp290765]

She has high cheekbones. Its the way she looks

[@juliohernandez9372]

great interview terrible editing

[@SoulStylistJukeBox]

Does the ''editing'' really matter? It's just a bloody interview on YT not the latest Scorcese film.

[@davidleeashkenazi8992]

Still stunning
