He seems to relax a little bit when the crowd starts clapping along.

I'm truly sorry for this delayed response. I somehow couldn't see your comment in my inbox. This quartet is Roland, David Sutton, Louise Goffin and Jebin Bruni. But I am sorry if I'm wrong. Once again, sorry for being late.

Thank you very much! He probably wanted to tell her the difficulty of his real expressive ability getting exposed and tested more in acoustic than in electronic versions. (sorry if you also meant it!) I agree with you, she handled off the cuff very well. :)

That stupid joke almost killed the italian chick.... but I think she handled very well. I hope.

@BubTheZombie1 I think itss their sense of humor differs from ours,, wath the interveiw he did in france with the male interveiwer, when he sang live with Julian Lennon and Oleta!

Either that audience has no sense of humor, or dry sarcasm doesn't translate well at all.

My Italian is not very good but I want to comment this so I can practise :P Grazie tante per ricaricare questa intervista tanto interesante, è veramente carina, e proprio un piacere ascoltare Roland cantando in diretto. Peccato che Tears for Fears non siano delle bande più conosciute nel mondo, sono veramente bravissimi, dello meglio degli ultimi decenni. Ne hai altre? Grazie e saluti dalla Espagna!

'm surprised most of the comments view him as composed... yes, while singing he's always in the 'zone'...but as to the interview interview itself it seems obvious, to me at least, he'd rather be *anywhere* than where he is and when asked how he feels playing in that venue doesn't skip a beat saying,..."it's torture...I'm being punished for being a bad boy". Tongue-in-cheek reply, maybe, but I believe he means every word. His performance is flawless, as always, not he's not a happy camper.
