I never knew that I could come to admire Marianne Faithfull as much as I do now. She survived and stands as proof that you can come back from the absolute depths of self destruction.

Glad she's rid herself of the poison chains of drugs and that their son is doing well. The family and loved ones of addicts are as much the victims of addiction as the addict is and it is nice to hear the stories of healing all around. The emergence of the Stones was a couple generations before me but I grew up with their albums playing on a record player and I still like the old songs today. I didn't know Marianne's story before today, she was beautiful then and she's still beautiful today, thanks for posting.

I was, in 1984, living in a small Studio Apartment on 9th Street and 2nd Avenue in the East Village in Manhattan and as I was doing Cold Turkey and I had no idea one of the loves of my young life was doing the same thing in the same City at the same time. Broken English became one of my main theme songs. Ive loved here since we were 20 year olds in old London Town back in the late 1960s. Now all these years later we can see what survivors look like. in 2019.

I love her honesty. A great story. I'm glad she decided to stick it out and come through the other end of the tunnel. God bless her. Thanks for posting the 5 parts of this.

This documentary made me emotional. What a remarkable lady

I always loved Marianne Faithful So glad she's doing well :)

What an interesting and well done documentary. My esteem for Marianne Faithful has gone even further up.

Gotta fucking love Marianne! She can make me laugh, and make me cry and she is one of a kind.

Gorgeous person - loved this doco. Authentic!

“The road to excess leads to the palace of wisdom...for we never know what is enough until we know what is more than enough.” William Blake Thank you so much for sharing this.

Good job Marianne! You are so brave.

My absolute favourite singer!

Thank you for sharing this interview!!! It has been in its own way very inspiring and I must say what a woman too. much can be said but alas I shall just recall an old greek saying."καλιος αργα παρα ποτε" something like better late than never.

Ireland and the Irish saved her 🇮🇪🍀👌😍, well done marriane 👍😊❤️

Until I stumbled on to Marianne Faithfull on youtube the only thing I'd ever hear about her was the song "As Tears go by". What a fascinating person!!! The videos of her singing when she was very young blew me away. She just stood there hardly moving, but who cared because you were so fixated on her face and voice. So sweet, so confident, so pretty. For the last couple of hours i have located all of her songs I could on KZfaq and saved them to my favorite file.

Marianne Faithfull is 68 years (December 29, 1946) and looks a thousand times better than me. Beautiful to this day! And such refreshing honesty and talent and beauty all rolled into one. She is a REAL survivor, and her own "greatest work of art." What a way to put it. Fabulous.

Thumbs up Marianne, and thank you for uploading these great interview's..

A fantastic documentary of Marianne, I am so glad she eventually got rid of those dreadful drugs which almost cost her life.. I loved her in her teenage days and her singing..Many guys had a crush on her, but she came across as an innocent girl destroyed by drugs...I cant help sorry for her..and hopes she survives for many more years

Love “Broken English “, Great Album

such a strong woman

Marianne is so intelligent and articulate and has so much class even after all she's been through. So cool to hear Keith giving her a compliment too :) Thanks for posting this!

Happy birthday MARIANNE FAITHFULL! (December 29, 1946)

I was lucky enuf to have been there at St. Anne's Church in Brooklyn when they filmed Blazing Away. The first night (I attended both nights) I waited outside for an eternity until she came outside, and got to meet her. It was the thrill of my life!

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.... 💞💞💞🌟🌟🌟🎤

Amazing person.

Wow! This has been so cool. I'd read her book. It was spellbinding. Like Marianne. 🇬🇧✌🏻✌🏻

I wonder if she still loves Mick... she said she loved him, but didn't use the present tense. When they were arriving in Australia, he was walking far ahead of her and I didn't see him anywhere after she overdosed. I love her speaking voice, but I'm not a big fan of her singing, although I was when she first started out. As a smoker myself, I know smoking is partially responsible for the change. If I could say just one thing to her it would be; although you put your body through so much destruction, you're still as beautiful as you were when I first saw you on a TV show that goes way back. The only difference is that you're much wiser now. xox

Great series. Thanks so much for uploading!

She has a new fan!

wonderful documentary ... enjoyed every moment.

She one of these kind of people that l l tend to see (or superimpose) others in her face. l see Edie Sedgwick in the troubled "Poor little Rich Girl" way. l see Tina Weymouth in the punk years. l can even see the medieval way about her like the way l do Rick Wakeman. She's like a bunch of people _visually_. Mostly l understand how difficult it must have been to overcome the 'bondage of self'. And love her art Glad she made it!!

not so diff than any of us) she just had different weaknesses. richer kids have richer toys. I'm so happy you put this all together i don't know anyone that couldn't relate either from the weakness point of view and how weaknesses can consume a person or by the raw knowledge of knowing when your skimming the bottom of the barrel. there is only 1 way to go... up. Bless you Marriane

Her autobiography is riveting.

Its interesting how her voice changed. From virginal and pre drugs to now after being driven like the snow. It shows what she went through more than anything else i think.

I loved this interview. Thank you.

Marianne is so fabulous as a performer, an artist and a woman. So smart n funny n strong.

Thoughtful and beautiful.

So fine song❤❤Years go by😢and a very strong women she is ti get out 😢😢that bad life with drogs Who coukd have kill her to the end😢buth she live in this 2024❤❤❤😊

I love Keith Richards' comment: "She's got some guts that girl.... apart from a great pair of tits..... ....I love you darling" So lovely to see two ex heroin addicts alive and well and clean and still great friends. She should've got with Keith instead of Mick, he wouldn't have left her a mess

Such a beautiful soul

and yet mick still remains as popular as ever strange

I ran out of space below. I just wanted to comment on the 5 part interview. It sadden me to hear what a tough life Marianne has lived, but I was comforted in the fact that she is fine with it. It has certainly been a very interesting life full of accomplishments. I wish her all the success and happiness in the future. Thank you for posting this interview

Excellent set of videos. She is so out front and honest.

The way she talks is so honest, like her or not it’s very refreshing that she’s honest, just so different from people today who measure everything they say to make sure it comes across right.

Marianne had a serendipitous career that continued despite habitual drug abuse and homelessness. Nothing that happened to her was by design. She even adopted a dark persona due to circumstances beyond her control.

What an amazing woman and she beat the dreaded heroin and that's not easy for anyone

Strange Weather great album indeed

Three British women of similar qualities and mystique that stole my heart: Dusty Springfield, Marianne Faithful and Princess Diana.

🙏😇La voz angelical 😇🙏 ♥️Dios esta contigo ♥️

What a beautiful lady, Angelic

My sympathy ends when they take down the innocent with them. She had a little boy who loved and depended on her.

How poignant it is when she sings 'As tears go by' at t the end. At the beginning it is sweet and pure and at the end there seems to be a more reflective worldy persona.

Far more revealing and intimate than her autobiography. My heart aches f or her.

inspiring!!!

♥️Marianne ♥️ 🙏 💪BY STRONG 💪 🙏

this documentary makes me more fan than i am!

Agree excellent documentary 👌

I think it is instructive to listen to Mick Jaggers' lyrics to the songs from and about the time that was spent around Marianne. "Baby you're out of time Under my thumb Wild horses - this last one written after she came out of her coma from her suicide attempt.

i can't think of the birth of popularity of The Stones w/o Marianne i just don't understand why Mick Jagger didn't get her to a doctor/ rehab? ......Then he takes the stone house she, her mom and Nicolas were living in for years.....and truly loved and needed away from them. With all his money? Why not help the lady who helped get him famous- Charity begins at home. I love his music, but as a person i think he lacks Empathy - total lack of empathy. So how to teach our beloved,admired Mick Empathy- he's pretty old -can he change, grow, learn? Hope he makes atonement, t not just to his kids but the women like Marianne - She WAS the "Butterfly in the Wheel" Bless the Stones and all the women and children they produced. In God I hope they take care of them....Wo sad watching Marinane. We all loved her when the "British Invasion" took over !!!!! Still love them....but can't reconcile what Muck did to Marianne.

impressing person - amazingly undisguised

A Great Lady

Interesting how the English turned their backs on her but the Irish took her in. Speaks volumes doesn't it?

I think she is self-indulgent. Nothing is her fault

Marianne is a very interesting pop artist

Her voice is just like Bette Davis

she´s so great. I´ll write a song about her......for sure I will.

This bio has some parts cut out of it (yes, I know it's in 5 parts but there are bits cut off). The full bio is somewhere on youtube.

Wow, this guy is playing a DX7. Respect.

Combine Harvester springs to mind

C'mon, Keith knows her and he was just kidding with an old friend. They both conquered junk and Mick Jagger so let them say what they want.

Sorry😢Tears go by i mean😢❤❤❤

The car ride through the cloud makes the comment.

AND NOW 1999-2012

I wonder how long her correspondence with Roger Waters has been, considering that he wrote the lyrics for Incarceration of a Flower Child a long, long time ago, from what I've read. It does have his earlier PF voice... Anyway, love Marianne!

Interesting, charming, a successful singer, a successful actress - 4 things you'll never be.

La Chasse spirituelle

ouch.

I really like Marianne and don't want to be disrespectful but I really don't think she can sing a one hit wonder written by Mick and Keith and I think she was deluded because of the drugs I think she should have stayed with an acting career I do admire her for surviving everything she went through I feel she was used by Mick Jagger and many more people in the industry and stupid hippie dippy shithead's for her beauty I can't stand Mick Jagger he was a snake then and still is. I wish Marianne all the best happiness and peace in her life she deserves it💗

What a legend! I just wish the autograph I have from her was not made out to a Larry. Sigh!

My first heart throb,even before i even knew what a heart throb was, i was about 9 years old back then but i have to be honest and say she sings better than Yoko Ono any day ..and more talented and still better looking also

What a Rich life she had !

Yes she does have a tattoo of a bluebird on her hand.

El 😈 Demonio 👿 ❗️quiso ruinar tu voz ❗️

I sing better than she.

she should have retired her voice daummm

Her voice is damaged..

Her older voice is completely different from her young voice and is horrible!!!
