I interviewed Pete in 1996. He was a bit brisk but then again he was in the middle of a tour. None the less he was still charming and asked me more questions. This interview was so pleasant. It's Pete with his guard down and genuinely participating on the conversation. I just adore that man. Bravo on this production.

Lynne was truly his soul mate...the one constant in his life. Props to her for standing by him till the end. Utter respect to her.

This video was such a treat. What a beautiful soul Pete Burns was.

The main thing I think is so compelling about Pete is that he is genuine and speaks the truth with no fear of what others might think. That in itself is such a rarity, not only in the entertainment industry but in life itself. I've always admired him. It was great to watch a conversation and not a contrived interview.

Lol!!! Lynne: "One of us has to stay in touch with the outside world". Bless her.

Rest in peace, our special star 🌟

Pete’s personality was absolutely brilliant, hearing his views on things and how he saw the world is so interesting. Such a terrible loss

Pete said he couldn't change the world but actually he did change the world with his music

This is my favourite Pete Burns interview, so its here I'll say I've just herd about Pets's passing . I used to see Pete and Michael sitting outside a cafe in Covent Garden ( Cafe Mode in Endell St) Pete chain smoked so outside was the place he liked. I summoned up the courage to say hello once and Pete said "Hello" guardedly, and then gave me a withering look :-) LOL It always brightened my day to see him and I learnt not to bother him again ;) He seemed like a force of nature Bye Pete RIP x

I loved Pete in this interview and it saddens me that he will not be doing anymore. I do hope he's very happy now.

This special person is missed. Pete is amazing. No one like him

Pete is utterly insane,but so intelligent & interesting at the same time. I'ts so nice to see a unique individual & not a sheep like most boring celebs. ;-)

In fact, it's about time for a good Pete Burns documentary. Someone make it!

1985 Pete profoundly impacted my life, oh my god how we went wild when his songs came on in the club

It's not an interview, it's a conversation. Stop saying that Dustin is narcissistic, they are both talking about their personal experiences to each other. And if you watch to the end, you'll see that Pete takes Dustin's number and tells him he'll take him out somewhere cause he really enjoyed talking to him.

Pete's command of the English language will make anybody sound dumb, quite a brilliant man.

Pete is so fascinating, I just love hearing him talk about his life and career.

Hmmm... that's funny. At 3:20, Dustin says "All I know he said to me." I think he's misquoting "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" where the lyrics are actually "All I know is that to me..." Pete was probably being polite in not correcting him. Anyways, this was great. I could listen to Pete Burns talk for hours.

Really would love to have met Pete, always admired his refreshing honesty, so many in this age are professional fakes!

rest in peace pete!! i'll love you forever!!

God bless his soul. He was such a special sweet, real, funny and down to earth guy. So sad to discovere him so late. RIP Pete

Best interview with Pete hands down. Not even so much an interview but a genuine, open conversation. Beautiful. I’m sure you miss him - glad you got this opportunity to do this. Great to hear bits of your story too.

This was great. RIP PETER..................

Pete's the star here - A true individual - If his candid anecdotes and hilarious wisecracking wisdom doesn't make you smile or think, then you're dead inside. RIP Pete.

I absolutely adore Pete. I'll forever be grateful for the great music and the awesome attitude that gave me the power to be whomever I wanted to be and dress however I wanted. My mom dropped me off at school down the street because I wore a pencil skirt and blue lipstick. As a straight A Student in school, I was a complete mystery. Pete's music gave me courage and strength and power. Forever grateful. Keep up the great stuff!!

I’ve recently come to Pete’s music. He seems like an incredible man. Really enjoy seeing him talk with someone who truly appreciates his music.

i think overall this is one of the most insightful interviews into Pete Burns... the person... jus to watch the rhythm of his speech and cognitive conversation is really great... what an intuitive, experienced, and articulate human being he is... his voice was the first that ever stood out to me as a singer and writer... the power, the poise, raw unique and uncompromising delivery made him a beacon for me at a very young age and pivotal point in my growth... I adore Pete Burns, obviously lol

Dustin Robertson is AVIDDIVA, an independent film maker and editor. It's obvious that he is thrilled to meet and chat with Pete Burns. The banter between them gave me a glimpse into both of these artists. I found myself laughing out loud several times. Very entertaining!

I absolutely adore Pete Burns, I always have and I always will... I miss him so terribly, it breaks my heart... I will forever love his fierce uniqueness... I hope he’s in a magical place!! 🖤🖤🖤

The way he said to the interviewer ‘no, not right on.’ 🙄😂🤣 This is why I love him, hahaha! 🙌🏻

I've only just discovered this. Pete was iconic, he paved the way for so many people. I met him briefly as a young 16 year old gay boy. Snuck into a club with friends and he was there as a VIP he told us all to "fuck the system, stay true and stay fucking you" All the love in the world Pete ❤️🌸

I relate to Pete so much it's beyond. Someone who is logical and actually makes sense. Also, people do realise this is a conversation, not a one sided interview? Show studio intended it that way...

I felt like a fly on the wall listening to an interesting conversation : )

Pete burns was an an incredibly brilliant and talented soul. I feel Pete was and still is sorely misunderstood. Sure he could be viper tongued and bitchy, but he could also be quite charming, sweet and personable as well. This interview is tangible proof of that. Pete has always presented himself as very self assured, unpretentious and not at all concerned with social perception. That's what made him the "special star" he was. Although there seems to be more emphasis in the media about his many accoutrements rather than his accomplishments. I always liked Dead or Alive. I was NOT as fond of Pete's sojourn into reality television. I personally am very saddened but not shocked by the rather untimely demise of Pete Burns. I sincerely believe that Pete succumbed to the rigors of excessive plastic surgery. I'm not a doctor, however I do believe Pete's cardiac arrest was a culmination and symptom of that. A full on eccentric and a creative force. Pete Burns gone way too soon. Thanks for your musical legacy and your stylistic genius. You are missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to Linda and Micheal and all whom were closest to him.

So sad. 29:36 - Pete talking about his life and influence. "...I hope to live a very long life..." :(

I love the looks Pete gives this interviewer guy. Priceless!

Pete was like marmite, I loved him, very open,honest, straight talking, talented, a beautiful man...he says everything that most people just think about. Truly missed so much, but there’s no way Pete would have wanted to grow old.

This interview made me happy. I miss Pete. 🖤

Far Too hard is also my all time favourite Pete track. It is THE most beautiful piece of music, lyrics and voice Pete has done hands down!

Pete Burns technically seems 'borderline' personality. But is honest even in pieces of himself. This is biochemical! I can see the depth of his inner struggles, which are real! And yes, he is difficult. And he knows what he is and is unapologetic! How many can admit their strengths and madness and be this way!? This is why I have respect for Pete!

I drank wine, got tipsy and watched Dead or Alive music videos all night Saturday gone. Made me happy

It is lovely to watch Pete just being himself completely unfiltered. You see a real connection mid way through which for the most part isn't there in other interviews with Pete. In this the dialogue flows from both parties. The world is a duller place without his sharp tongued wit :(..

Love it, love it. When you ask the right questions and show that you're listening, Pete is a wonderful interviewee. Sure, we had to endure a bit of the interviewers personal affairs, but this is so much better than the sterile 'How's your new face?' on most UK TV show interviews.

Thoroughly enjoyed this! Such a great interview. Just adored Pete’s authenticity and sense of humour.

RIP, Pete - you're always loved

Pete was so nice and sweet on this interview ! Makes me miss him more

I have watched this about 10 times now, its one of my favourite interviews, so relaxed and open

I listened to this interview a long time ago and just revisited it today. I think this is a great conversation. Pete has and always will be a mystery to me. But this gives i alot of insight into what made Pete tick. I had a sister (she also passed a few years back) that also marched to the beat of a different drummer. The world is a bit less bright with them gone, but never forgotten.

this is a great interview. it's one of the few, possibly only, interviews i've seen where they didn't just ask pete questions about you spin me round and cliche questions like that. pete is genuinely engaged and not as defensive as he normally is in interviews, due to being annoyed by the questions. he's relaxed and interested. great interview.

Truly just beautiful. Always nice to see Pete being himself. It took him a LONG time to get to where he is with himself. I am a huge fan, always have been. This was great , thanks Dustin :)

Love this man. Sad I'm only learning of his talent since he passed. Which I had of learnt of his work first time around. I was too young

Pete came across very well, and is so cool : D

I loved the conversation on Petes behalf. I think pete opened up alot. Dustin is a total Knob. I understand share your experiences but it's rare pete opens up about alot of stuff including his relationship. Dustin just nodded and "yea right on I was this I was that I I I I I" It's like he brushed Petes convo off "Right on" I'm glad pete put beef cake boy in his place when he said "Right On" and he said "No not right on"

I never got the feeling from Pete that he wanted to be a star. I mean, in the desperate, careerist, show-up-for-anything way so many are.

Wonderful 💗 Pete could never be pushed into a box. I admire him in (maybe) a similar way that he admired Quentin Crisp. And funny to think, as a kid I also admired Quentin. Two souls who were true to themselves and lived unapologetically. 💗

wow, this is lovely and seems so genuine on both sides. pete seems much more compassionate than i've ever seen him, he doesn't really show that side. Rest in Peace angel ♥

Fast approaching the point where there will be no new videos to see of Pete and that breaks my heart. He died far too young. I really miss him, never knew or even met him but boy do I miss him.

Very very interesting and real interview

So many contradictions in what Pete is saying , BUT , for me the Music is what made him special to me !! A legacy we should all be grateful for - for me the Music transcends everything else - about Pete ... I heard the 12" of Misty Circles and was hooked !! Still am today in 2024 !

As much as i love Pete and his music, it seems weird that he could be a pop,singer but doesn't like to tour and perform his songs as the fans want to hear them. Of course he can do whatever he likes. But he really is a true solid person- wud love to have him for a friend or even a co-worker. And i wud love to write a song for him!

its funny he was disappointed by the success of Come Home- I LOVE THAT SONG!! It’s been on repeat for me for like 2 weeks i love the video man- i get it

I love this. Hearing his voice is perfect. And you are amazing. It's hard getting him to open up like this 🖤

i absolutely love this interview!!!! i watched it for the first time in july of last year (2021) and since then i watch it a lot, over and over

Pete and DOA have a very special place in my life. I saw you once in Chicago and you blew me away! That was an amazing show!

I love Pete for his absolute honesty ❤

I love this man.... the memories he leaves many of us will forever live in our hearts ❤ Thank you Beautiful Angel of Music.... you are now Free to Be ❤

That’s the biggest queen I’ve ever seen and I’m not talking about Mr Burns

~ One of my favourite interviews with Pete... hes got space to be himself , and some deep topics come up. Thanks to Dustin

23 seconds in and I love everything that is happening on Burn's face. Great interview.

I like the interviewer here because he just seemed very genuine and seemed to have so much respect for Pete.

We miss you Pete, how nice it is to hear a star who actually has something to say that's worth hearing :)

Thank you for this interview love love love love love freedom will live

AWESOME! Two Gentlemen talking.

Thing is, it's not "All I know HE said to me" it's "All I know is THAT to me"........

This is my favourite interview with Pete, amazing insight into the legendary Pete Burns and just such an interesting free flowing conversation between these two, just love it.

Far Too Hard is one of my fave tracks too.

Is this a interview with Pete or Dustin?

Thank you for posting this. Just love Pete.

All of this hate, I can't stand it. Look at how happy Pete is from start to finish. Fantastic conversation. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you. 💚

May Pete rest in peace, so unique.

That was amazing! Pete is wonderful and he was amazingly open in this interview! And Dustin is fabulous! A true fan and a genuinely lovely person! Well done and thank you! X

So agree with Pete from 23:10 about his 'bubble'.. I'm exactly like that myself! Interesting interview...

My favourite interview ever, it calms me xxx

That was AWESOME - loved it! So much resonated with me. I'm a loner 2 - spend a lot of my time alone THINKING about life & how it all works - friends want me 2 write a book. I've tried explaining my sexuality in the same way - I've been with men & women but wouldn't call myself by any label. I certainly couldn't define it by the sexual act itself. I'm attracted 2 PEOPLE - we are all so interesting aren't we? I'm 41 & have loved Pete since I was bloody 11 years old. Thanx Pete & Showstudio :)

Enjoyed the discussion immensely. The were open about their experiences and honest.

I truly enjoyed hearing these two talk about situations and the facts of life, it was awesome, it made me a better person just hearing this. And I hope they became friends, because I would. :) much love to Pete and Dustin.

Awesome video!!👏 I’ve always wanted to work with Pete. Gone too soon. R.I.P. my brother ❤️🙏🏼✝️

I totally miss Pete Burns, he was so... intriguing and talented and he didn't even know (or would accept) that he was. So capable of so much more but not allowed the artistic freedom to explore

14:43 - 16:27 I keep coming back to this video for this bit here, because I feel Petes on this 110%

I also have one apartment and 1 fork, because if I need it again - I wash it. Was so sweet to hear Pete passionately approve of this practice lol

This was fantastic. Love Pete.

Such an amazing interview. i miss u Pete

I know who Pete Burns is but not sure who Dustin Robertson is.

One of my favourite interviews with Pete. Sadly missed

This is one of the best interviews I've seen in a long time. Great work!!

@SpearOfGoth EXACTLY. I completely second this. Pete seems so centered and content. Really a beautiful and insightful interview. Just wonderful. To the interviewer, not sure who you are, but thank you for this. Amazing job.

So ,near the end he was doubting his long term relationship with Michael? I know they had quite a volatile relationship, but it sounded here like he didn't want it anymore.

Thank you for the nice reply,I had to admit it was a great interview !

Pete --- you were very well know and very well loved! We found you.

I really really wish this video wasn’t in black-and-white so I could watch it much clearer and much better and in much more detail
