This'll take you back.......and then......?....he cuts it off_*___________*

Ron looks like a matinee idol. I've just been listening to This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us. It really stands the test of time and is as fresh today as it was then. Pure genius. I love that they also spawned so many original artists who got their inspiration from them. For example the astonishingly talented Billy Mackenzie with his manic soaring vocals. His cover of Never Turn Your Back On Mother Earth is one of the best covers of any song, God rest his soul.

Michael Firman

Damn! These borther are so classic, they are the best! Thanks for being so brilliant & orginal!!!

Mia Paboplanes

I wish they could go back to the glam movement,but...the glitter era was gone :(

Ron would make a great Evil Genius on a Bond film.(from Goldfinger)"You dont expect me to talk do you Dr Ron"No Mr Bond, I expect you to ...sing "

geisiel cesar

Love these guys, funny brilliant and different. Love the song.

Isaiah Begay

If there were a film about these brothers, could you see Benedict Cumberbatch and Jason Schwartzman playing them?

ian armistead

The keyboard player came across as so strange but when talking he's so normal, just an observation!

A.D. Gonzalez

The Mael Brothers, are just geniuses!

I got to meet Ron and Russ when they played Norman,Oklahoma on the " Sparks In Outer Space " tour. They played a club on a weeknight when there were finals the following day ( college town ) and there were,maybe,30 people there. I have been a fan since 1972 and they were very friendly and appreciative of my small band of fellow fans. They signed things and took photos with us...and then Ron drove them away in a station wagon. Yes I'm serious.

Being an award winning songwriter I must profess that Sparks have been a massive influence on my career,regards,B.Dylan

Kevin Finney

Shame they DON'T own the BBC...would be much more entertaining

tai wai dave Cheung

real artist & so goodlooking

Joyce Little

Great interviewer, getting the best out of these extraordinary people. (We just gave him a very well-desrerved honorary Ph.D for his own work). I can never understand why the Maels aren't more obviously respected- though perhaps now they are. It has taken a while...

Robert Sullivan

awh cut short!!

UnderTheAffluence

Thanks for the heads up, but Ron only seems to speak in this song. I was hoping to hear him sing...

CusterFlux

Just a little quirky .... hilarious, talented ... but damn quirky!

Captain Aubergine

I love Ron SO much! But every time he opens his mouth I do expect some mad german professor voice lol

UnderTheAffluence

I think it would have been very interesting if Ron had sung a few of the songs he'd written.
