Jay Kay interview at Estado.com
Added on Saturday 25 March 2006, 08:24 (GMT)
Brasilian website Estado.com.br recently printed an interview with Jay.  In the interview Jay talks about a number of things such as...
  • The band plan to play a mixture of music on this tour leg so that all the fans are satisfied and that they will make sure its worth their while since its been a while since they last played.
  • He is not a fan of the new Stevie Wonder album, though he understands that musicians need change and take a step forward in a different direction.
  • He does not think that the British team will win the Soccer World Cup as he feels that the team/people are not mature/ready for a win.
  • He also says that when driving, he often listens to to Marvin Gaye, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix.
The full interview (in Portuguese) can be read at the Estado.com.br website (BabelFish English translation).

Jay, thaaaa man! Totally agree with him concerning last Wonder's album: a bad Rn'b,(is it possible to be good?)poor instruments, without soul and all the perfect melodies which make that steevie is unique. Bad work man!
Besides, I'm happy with Jay's influences: Led Zep, Marvin and Hendrix! What a mix!!! Three legends in one spirit, I understand why he si soooo talented whith this kind of influences. Just one thing: My english is poor and I don't really understand the first sentence about the band. Can someone help me? What does it mean?

hey, does any body know if a brazilian news website or whatever has any short clip of the gig?

Moreover, I believe he says jay wants to have a mixture on the songs he play and it is worth since it s been a long time since they played

Hey Miquel there's a Space Cowboy and Cosmic Girl clip here:

i read the interview, and the english translations were kinda poor. i had to re-read many things in order to make any sense of it...

About the interview: is that even english or just words taken out of a dictionary and shuffled in any way, but still so so funny ( i believe that Jay is a "he", not a "it" haha). By the way thanx Fernando for the site (not that it was for me, but still :) )great clips, totally freaked me out(i have never been on a Jamiroquai concert or seen them live so it was realy SOMETHING for me), i was just smiling and laughing of happiness like an idiot and jumping on the chair to the rhythm hahaha. I found all the stuff i wanted although the only thing i know in spanish is nunca :D
