RANDY NEWMAN interview on SONGWRITING, MOVIES and more (2 Meter Sessions, 2000)

Описание: Randy Newman, born in 1943, is a distinctive singer-songwriter and composer renowned for his satirical wit and cinematic melodies. Emerging in the early '70s, his music blended New Orleans R&B and traditional pop, creating vivid character-driven narratives of misfits and con men. Hits like “Short People” and “I Love L.A.” showcased his biting humor. While his solo albums, including Sail Away (1972) and Good Old Boys (1974), earned critical acclaim, Newman achieved widespread success as a film composer. His scores for Toy Story, Monsters, Inc., and The Princess and the Frog earned multiple Oscars and Grammys. With works like Dark Matter (2017), Newman remains a master of sharp storytelling and rich musicality.

Randy Newman performed on January 16, 2000 on Dutch television show 2 Meter Sessions.

About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.

Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).

The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zealand band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.
