She looks so nervous. bless her for doing it for us anyway.

[@CounterFleche]

Apparently she's very shy. I saw them in concert a few years ago in an old, Gothic church in Los Angeles, and they had the lights so low we could only see silhouettes.

[@cowgirlmalfoy8081]

she's so pretty inside out. i adore her

[@vv7299]

i do too, but she was well known to be a total b** and a pain to deal with

[@stevienicks9210]

@@vv7299 lol where did you hear that?

[@yankee2yankee216]

@@vv7299 Right, she is assertive about getting what she wants, and that makes her a b****? Would you knock a man for being 1/2 as forceful? As many have remarked, she's a very attractive woman, but what REALLY sets her apart is her beautiful singing voice, her singing ability, and her musical message and vision. Her gift to the world is her music.

Love her voice, so sweet and soft, I could listen to her all day.

[@ericcoleman288]

They are both really hard interviews, they seem quite uncomfortable but yet they are amazing live

[@Gunners_Mate_Guns]

Hope is notoriously shy, so that accounts for the discomfort.

[@stivklif]

@@Gunners_Mate_Guns plus, the quality of the questions smh

[@ThirdOfJune4444]

My sentiments exactly. I felt very awkward just watching them. There was no chemistry and it felt so forced. They make a very bad interview.

[@New_Zealand_Music]

Definitely amazing live. They are both extreme introverts. And Hope doesn't like self-promotion. It doesn't sit comfortably with her. Some people have trouble with the words, selling their art. Because we make it for ourselves. I feel the same. And if we choose to share, it's a gift. That's why it's uncomfortable. Hope wears her heart, with great courage, on her sleeve, always. Hold on Hope, because Hope's Got a Hold on Me...Myself. I have to use a performance art costume to play on stage. Otherwise I just can't 😪😪🤗🤗❤❤ Namaste Sweetheart 🙏

[@dang2443]

@@Gunners_Mate_Guns When he asks moronic simplistic questions like "are you both from California?". The answer is going to be a simple "yes" or "no". And he already knows the answer anyway. He could have included that info in his basic introduction of the band. The guy just sucks as an interviewer.

[@willy565]

Among My Swan is a masterpiece.

One of the best bands out of l.a. , with an original sound all their own.

[@johnsolo123456]

I love the juxtaposition of these comments pitting Hope’s cosmic enchanting beauty versus the silliness of the interviewer and the interview format.

[@GhostRider-re7iv]

It’s my first time hearing Hope talk. She is really adorable, and just genuine. Her voice is lovely. RIP to her partner David.

In Every Way, In a World Gone Bye, She Is Perfection! Thank God For Woman! Thank God For Film and Video!!!

[@donhunter6404]

It's almost impossible to pick a "favorite" song from Mazzy Star but I kinda lean toward "Look on down from the bridge". Such a perfect voice and band. The only person who actually looks good playing a harmonica. Love them.

[@FlorenciaE]

Wow such good quality thank u so much! It’s so rare to see her speak

[@faschwank]

[@alielanizi8535]

He's not French but Canadian

[@ylpx]

He's Canadian you can tell by his accent and French pronunciation... At first I hardly understand what he says but that how French speaking interact and socialize which will surprised American.

Yeah he`s French Canadian from Quebec, I live there at the moment and still on this day it`s rare to find an interviewer here that is not weird like this one lol

I can only imagine what the non-english speaking french audience must have been thinking when the interviewer asks a question and either one of them goes " um............Yes" or they give an "um.........errr.........no" and then the interviewer proceeds to 'translate" that answer by speaking continuously for 45 seconds in French.

[@zdfvbadfbadb]

And he also asked really stupid questions. Fans dying to hear insights from this beautiful creature and his first question is, 'so is it just the 3 of you or are the more musicians in the group?' Then he asks why it took so long for her album to reach gold in the US. What an idiot.

[@zdfvbadfbadb]

Not to mention the other times when he just looks into the camera and speaks gibberish. ;)

[@ylpx]

@@zdfvbadfbadb apparently you seems not have been living around French or Canadian people, that how they socialize and interview their hosts. It's a typical interview. American are strait forward and goes to the point like a rushing train unlike French they will discus details about your daily life and have a sit with you around a casual table found in many bar and bistro in France and throughout Europe.
