As a longtime NYC DJ, I’ve played with Mark many time throughout the years at NYC clubs. He’s a genuinely, nice, creative and humble guy. While coming from a musically connected, wealthy family, a former model, you would never know it. He’s just a real fan of music, a bloody good DJ, producer and musician.
I love how soft-spoken he is. Too many people are too in your face.
Mareeen14 that is him knowing he is lucky to do what he loves for the rest of his life and appreciating the fans that helped him get where he is. He is a genius!

Probably because he's a Brit with British parents but raised in America.
He's also really intelligent. Watch his TED talk to see what I mean.
I love how this documentary is not only about Mark Ronson, but so many more people. I am not only getting to know him, but everyone else he worked with. 😍
"Back to Black" is perfect. I say Amy twice in the theater. I adore her. She's once in a lifetime like Whitney Houston.
E G como?
@E G still is a one of one. Smh nothing like either one of them in any instant smh
It is truly an outstanding piece of work.
Even better than his sense of vision, his sense of arrangement and ability to bring the best out of his artists, is his absolute dedication to the craft, the sacrifice he’s made to help create amazing records for the artists he believes in.
Lately, can't get enough of Mark Ronson. Thanks for this documentary!
i love how late night feelings is played through whole documentary . lot of people make that song a bit underrated but damn instrumental is so catchy and romantic and melancholic all at the same time . listening it on repeat for 2 days non stop
Little Monsters Love You So Much Mark ❤

Mark Ronson is a genius.
Agreed!
People who call other people "a genius" are idiots.
Hey guy, think you for helping me know what is Mark Ronson
thank
The Heart Of A Blackbird and how is that?
I always thought Mark was a genius, he really is. It's so nice to finally see an entire documentary about him and not just little snippets from here there and every where. He's wonderful.
"Joanne" and "Million Reasons" always makes me emotional. Gaga is amazing. 😭♥️
Indeed, Mark Ronson is one of the best producers and musicians of our time. He's inspired me so much for my own music and I'm greateful to have bumped into this today. I feel renewed and inspired. Thanks for putting your heart out into the world, Mark.
Amy 💔 Back to Black is a masterpiece!
One of the best albums there is.
I love Mark's voice and accent. It's soooooooooooo relaxing to listen to him--like therapy.
,
He sounds high...
Mick Jones is his step dad??!?? Well no shit Robson became one of the best producers of our day. Mick was one of the best of his! How cool
i'm so in love with him and his talent
Byanca Balbino he is crazy talented!
Soo. He is deep, been through some tough times and digs himself emotionally deep into music and is producing hit songs because he's challenging himself and wants to help other artists. All for the love of music. How beautiful. I'd love to do this some day. I'd love to work with him.
So much sadness in his eyes. I always fall for this kind of guys ;D Anyway, I hope he’ll find some comfort in his life. He seems very humble, down to earth, considerate and gentlemanish - very rare today. Aand he has really great, very dry sense of humor, which is another big plus.
Shallow 🥺❤️
i can't even formulate into words how amazing this was
love him, intelligent, talented, sensitive, a true gentleman
Man what he said at the end is so deep nd sad...u'r so inspiring Mark thank u for all the amazing tunes u'v created that will always resonate with the world 🙏🏽.
so deep, it really got me :(
clearly divorce really effected him. both of his parents and then his own. when you grow up in a messed up family all you wan't is to never go through the same situation in your own life and when that happens it's too much.
Damn youtube originals been upping their game lately

lol I just came back to this comment and I had no idea I had written this and didn't remember this documentary existed
Mark, how can you be so genius? Every song is a hit, even the ones that are not so popular.
I have just realized about the music he makes. I just want you to know Mark you bring joy to so many people. Keep saying everything you need to say. Thanks.
Here for Bradga❤️
I’m always so fascinated by the creative process of anyone who is in music. Whether it’s a song writer, musician, producer, composer etc. I feel the gift to be able to create something that has the power to invoke thoughts, emotions, and moods is a tremendous one. This was a wonderful documentary on Mark Ronson who I already was in aww of but even more so now.
“Somebody says I can’t..”... “ I say, oh really”....... I live to hear all your records! Love you mark! ❤️ your creativity in music is so remarkable! You are the greatest of all time and not recognize enough! Love to meet you one day!
Nothing breaks like a heart 💔
I need that shirt or jacket.
The moments with Gaga and Amy are precious
As the night surrenders to the breaking dawn, Mark's beats linger, in the hearts they spawn. So, let the music play, in the city's endless groove, For in Mark's notes, the spirit of NYC behooves.
Nothing Break Like A Heart ❤
When Miley begins to sing: Ghoosebumps all over. Such a great Song. Thanks Mark Ronson.
'So amazing to see behind the scenes of Mark's genius - brilliant.
FIRST! Huge fan of Mark Ronson from South Africa 🇿🇦❤️
Finally watched this documentary. It was sitting in my "Watch Later" for months. I wish Mark Ronson knew how much joy he has brought into my life through his music. I was 14 when I heard "Ooh Wee" and I've been following his career ever since. I think I'm always going to hear "Bronson" when I listen to it now lol. "She's Got Me" and "International Affair" are my other stand-out tracks (shout out to Daniel Merriweather!). I remember seeing Mark Ronson live for the first time in 2008 and it is still one of the best live music experiences I've ever had. Thank you Mark Ronson!!
Late nights feelings. What an album! Thank you Mark 💖💔
am i the only watching this without actually having youtube premium....
AgentMrX7 nah me too...lucky I guess 🤷♀️
There's a longer version, it's called the "director's cut", on KZhead Premium.
Bonnie Insane omg! Maybe I’ll do the first month I’ll get for free 😏 thank you!
Nope!
@@jessg136 you're welcome!
Ever since I saw his ted talk I fell in love with the dude and I hope the documentary will help people recognize his genius
We need more of Mark and Gaga! Amazing...
this guy is like a mix of sadness and wild party soul, idk what it is, but actually i feel in love with him.
100% TRUE!!!🥰
I want to work with Mark Ronson. Props friend for never giving up grasping at your dreams. Whether you achieve them is irrelevant, it's whether you enjoy them along the journey that truly matters.
This doco is amazing! I felt extremely emotional and incredibly inspired in parts, and when it was over.. i jumped on the piano and and made music. Love you Mr Ronson x
This guy is the real deal. A true power player in the music industry.
“Like a Feather” will forever be engraved in my ears. I love that song. ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This was great, I loved getting to know more about Mark. What an incredible artist and person. I didn't know a ton about him or all of the songs hes produced and created, especiallyfrom his earlier years, so this was such a treat to watch. Huge fan of his and cant wait to see what he does next!
love his tracks. he has a natural talent for finding vocals that we do not normally hear from.
Behind Every Great and even mediocre artist stands a producer who makes it happen, friendship, collaboration and even brotherhood/sisterhood unity that most simply wished we had.
I was overwhelmed by all the talent that was in one video. Damn, Mark Ronson.
Thank you for loving music the way you do, and sharing that love with us.
honestly what he said in the end almost made me cry :'( so thankful for his vulnerability
Mark Ronson's appreciation for the power of music is like Sister Wendy's love of art. "Creates a space" and 'alchemy" are apt descriptions but it's clear he has his own groove there, too. Beautiful stuff. Thanks, man.
I'm not usually someone who watches documentaries, but I saw the name mark Ronson and I COULD NOT (no matter how hard I tried) figure out why I recognized the name or where I knew him from...so I hit play with only the intent on figuring out where I knew him from and I was planning on skipping through until I figured it out and then turning it off...BUT, I watched EVERY MINUTE FROM BEGINNING TO END! What an AMAZING man, I am BLOW AWAY by how intimate he was with his emotions throughout the ENTIRE FILM!!!! With all the fakes, wannabes, plastics, sell outs, followers and liars in the entertainment business today, THIS MAN is soooo GENUINE and soooo HONEST....he is THE REAL DEAL and THANK GOD for that because it is SO RARE these days!! In fact I'd be willing to bet that not even a full 1% out of all the people in the entertainment/media world today are actually true to themselves, show their REAL/TRUE emotion etc!!! We are living in a time of our world where I TRULY FEAR that we are all SO BADLY disconnected from each other.... that it will only be a matter of time before we have a world full of leaders who we will only be able to recognize by the tops of their heads....this being due to all of them addressing their nations, giving public speeches (etc) all while having their heads down staring at their electronic devices (phones, tablets etc). Just think about that for a minute....REALLY think about it...now think about how absolutely possible this could be in our very near future if we don't make some MAJOR changes ALL AROUND THE WORLD! People like Mark Ronson are so rare and so badly needed...to remind us that people DO have emotions and there are MANY things people can be apart of and passionate about...rather than just spending all their time in cyber space. Iconic people in the entertainment business and/or all of the different media platforms are who everyone looks to and where everyone goes for advice, opinions, gossip, what to wear and not to wear, what to buy...bottom line is everyone looks to celebrities, websites, apps etc FOR EVERYTHING.....so I pray that all of the honest celebrities out there will use their influence in the media world to try to remind people of so many things....things like emotions and connections that they don't even think about or realize is important anymore....the enormous number of things they take for granted etc etc etc....I highly doubt things will get any better, in fact it just seems to be getting worse by the day....but people like Mark Ronson give me hope...so I've still got hope! On a different note, Bradley cooper made a few different comments about music that are SO TRUE and I LOVE SO MUCH, I wrote them in a notebook of mine. The first few sentences are at 1:03:40 and the other few are at 1:06:33....any REAL/TRUE music lovers will definitely appreciate these words!!!
I love the story of his mom finding she was pregnant right after marriage. When my husband and I married I thought my stomach was sick due to nerves. The night we got married we ate at this wonderful seafood place so the next day when his mom joined us we went back to the same place and I just could not eat it. I had a hunch I was pregnant. Stopped on the way home to get a test and the look on my husbands face was beautiful. That baby was his first biological child, though he sees the two oldest as just as much his.
Oh thank you for sharing a few more moments of Amy with us. Incredible.
Wow. I'm speechless. You truly are such an amazing and special person, Mark. Thank you for sharing with us all these tings about Amy. I'm sure she's super proud of you. ❤️
So amazing to see your journey until here. I am a truly fan of you and your work. Your beats just match with my soul every time I listen to one of your songs, it’s magical the way you pass energy. Love you, 💔.
Such an honest, humble, clever also beautiful guy.. From this video he looks to me as a great natural talent.. So lucky are all those musicians and all his his co-workers, close associates to have him. He brings the best out of the musicians. Thanks for the upload.
Awesome documentary!!❤️❤️❤️Love, Love, Love it! Mark, you are not only a very talented individual, but a gift to everyone who hears your music. Thank you for your vulnerability and emotion, because of it your music speaks to many people and gives a connection of what’s going on in their own lives. Through your music you will continue to be an inspiration to everyone! You are one of the all-time best musicians ever!!!❤️ you Mark!💔
You are AMAZING! Thank you for your songs and music! ❤️
Inspiring examples of natural creativity and genuine "savoir faire". I absolutely love the Retro feel on his work, so knowledgeable and melancholic. Redefining the meaning of "Cool" and musitianship.
Wow!!! Thank you so much for these amazing insights of you about you and your life and career! It feels ridiculous to see what I'm struggling with in my own career but I keep fighting and winning new insights and joy and music. And in the end of all I realize we have a pretty similar way through life and feelings, just on a whole different scale.. And the good thing for me is you don't scare me because you're too far away. You keep inspiring me and go for more...
I thought I loved you before Mark, but now I know I really do. You are a true artist. An absolute legend.
mark being the first person bradley showed cuts of 'a star is born' to? omfg that's! really getting to me!
wish i stumbled up to this sooner. i've had hear comes the funk on replay in my car for over a year. classic.

This man has a real gift! Total doll ! Love his stuff now !! 💘
Thank you for sharing IT All Mark. Blessings to always be safe healthy happy & Thriving. ❤️🥁☘️
Thank you for sharing your story ❤
in my earlier childhood, mark ronson and the business intl was the only cd played in our car. my mum was fresh off a divorce and we'd just moved a few towns over from my dad. there was something so important about that album, and it holds so many particular memories for me, even if i was only young. specifically, i can remember asking my older sister to burn me a cd with the bike song, bang bang bang, valerie, fruit machine and somebody to love me on it, and i played it on my shitty pink $20 cd player for a week straight. it was so interesting to learn about his younger years and introduction to music and production. i truly think he's one of the most important producers in music right now.
I discovered this great artist watching a video on KZhead of a British music show. Two of my favorite musical women Adele and Of course Amy were performing with him and I became a fan of all three. All of them are brilliant and responsible for a lot of the greatest music of the past 15 or so years in my humble opinion. ✌️♥️
Refreshing ~ much Love and Prayers❤❤❤~
Dude this is Chris Lett and you know who this is if your reading this Mark. I remember when we were kids growing up in the city and you weren’t djaying yet.Remember all the clubs we used to go to as kids? The last time we talked you actually offered me to be your roady. lol its good to see you have come such a long way in life because this is something me, Marcell, and guideon would never have expected. Proud of you bro and i wish you the best on your journey!
I had forgotten all about Like a Feather! Such a great song and I remember thinking "Oh hell yes!" when I first heard it way back when. Thanks.
I have to say, you are the Ace of Cups to me, Mark. So sorry that I made a comment with a tarot card reference. But that's how I feel and think about you when I saw this documentary and have been listening your musics a lot lately. Your music is really containing yet also creating space just like Gaga said. Keep up the good work. Never stop creating music. ❤❤🙏🙏
I love the documentary, but I really miss a little bit of behind the scenes of Nothing Breaks Like A Heart with Miley 💔
Hi Mr. Diller..i have been a serious Miley Cyrus fan since ‘08....loved the Ronson collaboration...by the way I’m 73...
Nach Diller to d m zhgzdx ewwwwwwwwqwwwws
That was absolutely beautiful. What a amazingly talented man.
Mark you're the most amazing musician of actually. Greetings from Mexico.
Awesome video. I love how Mark just feels like he could be your buddy. I got to see you on the Joanne tour on Joannes anniversary of her death. Sending positive vibes your way Mark!
I love this documentary. Mark Ronson is one of the best musicians. He's is really a genius. Such an inspiration.
Thank you for your music! Such a great inspiration to me. You're a genius.
Absolutely loved the Documentry
All the people in this documentary are like music royalty. They were born into it... God I would have loved to be so privileged!
I get so much pleasure to watch this documentary. I am a huge fan of 💔, and now I want to hear 'Late night feeling'.. so gorgeous tune.. love that he said about 'round shape' - it Is! In my mind first that I think was that melody and voice are so united and moving slowly...so nice 💫💎❤
Music feeds the soul it's a way to most definitely Express what's deep within. Love you Mark I appreciate and adore your music
Mark Ronson is pure talent🙌🏾
“Have you come to take the muppets away?” *dead* 😂
Thanks Mark! Just keep doing this, you’re amazing ❤️
Thank you 4 the Inspiration 🙏🏼
