Crashing The UK Airwaves
At “Talk Sport” Radio Station With Mike Mendoza And Sam Crompton…
We’re bringing you back to the UK with us! Just before leaving Europe, the band did an interview at the Talk Sport radio station, in London. All the band was there, except for Alex, who was still as sick as the previous days that night…
The band explains their expectations, the beginning of the band, life on tour, the reaction of the fans and their very special relationship with them…
Get to see Sef finally acknowledging that people do not understand him neither in French nor English. See the band on stage, off stage, with the fans…
And get to see Sef’s little guilty pleasure… “looking like a real king, with straight hair”…
Definitely a must-see video! You’ll laugh your head off! lol

Es ist wirklich wunderbar die Band, in dem Interview, über ihre Vorstellung, darüber, wie sie zusammen gekommen sind und über ihre Zeit während der Tour, sprechen zu hören. Es ist auch schön die kurzen Videos, von den Konzerten und Meet & Greets, dazwischen zu sehen, wirklich besondere Momente für jeden. Und bezogen auf das Ende, habt ihr Sef vorher gesagt, dass die Leute ihn, in einem Interview für das Radio, nicht sehen sondern nur hören können? lol

I am curious to know how it was to be on the radio this way. Too bad Alex had to miss it!! It’s interesting to go back to these memories of how it all started for YFE!
We’re you guys nervous? How did you manage with Sef wanting to reaffirm his so obvious superiority?!…lol
It was great to see this video again!! I hope that soon, I’ll hear you on the radio channels that I listen to every day!!!

You’re right Stephanie…seeing Sef with straight hair was quite something and so was it to see Ben and Moose with short hair as well! Haha! I also really enjoyed hearing Miss Isabel and all the guys shareabout the meaning of the music for them!! It was moving to hear them opening up about their vision of it, which has always been inspired by the people in order to be shared with the people!! With such a motivation, I believe you can do no wrong!! All the best to you guys!

Relationships… you heard that word quite a few times during the video. I think this interview is a beautiful glimpse of how relationships can bloom. Back in 2007, Samantha, the lady sitting between Jeff and Miss Isabel, suggested that we enter some of our songs in a band contest they had at the radio station. I remember receiving a message from Talk Sport Radio telling us that you guys participated so much that their mailing system completely crashed. As we didn’t have any air play at the time in the UK, all of this came straight from what we shared through music and messages. Many others who discovered the band through that contest are still in touch with us today as well, that’s just awesome! It also brings us back to another video that you guys might have seen… All of us sitting around a long table in a garage hearing our songs for the very first time on a UK radio. Amazing joys we got to share, moments that are worth more than anything because we were all together and living it to the fullest.

Dude…can you imagine…The guys told me that it would be amazing for my greatness and my kingness to straighten my hair for the radio show… I got inspired by this unique moment and decided to give the honor of straightening my hair to someone… Hopefully, I kept my eyes open… yeah… you cannot fool a bearded dude that easy! “…a shame to not cut it(dude…she was talking about my beard!), “what about bleaching it?” (the empire of the unhairy stuff stroke again…she was still talking about my beard!), “cut your hair a little bit”(ok…I can see clearly now that Jeff came to the hairdresser shop before me…) Like you saw guys, nothing happened to my long hair and beard… I stood up in front of my brothers and sisters after that and I said that they could cut my beard and long hair and in three days it would grow back like it was… that’s the power of faith dude… What did you say exactly Stephanie?? “Sef’s little guilty pleasure”?? Yeah… the only guilty thing about that story are the ones who wanted to put down the world of a real Hairy Virile Rock’n’Roll man…!!

I remember this so well!! Everyone was so excited at the HQ to hear this interview!!! We were truly blessed to be so supported by Mike and Sam!!! Such great people to have with us!!! Five years have passed, although the guys might have changed in their appearance… well maybe except for Sef!! Their heart and passion are still the same today…it really is inspiring!!! Thank you for sharing this Steph, it really did bring back some good memories and laughs!
