I don't remember that one, but based on the fake crowd noise, lip-synching, guitar-neck choking and bad outfits, this must have been a Kirshner production.
I do remember briefly thinking this was pretty cool back in the day though (I was 11 years old).

And just for contrast - a video from the same summer. I grew up a lot that summer. Apparently so did Kirshner  .

I was 7 years old, and I don't think that song ever charted in this country.
Correction: it reached #37 in the States. Not exactly a monster hit.

I was 8 and remember that on Top of the Pops.
Some of the Glam Rock stuff was good but the Rubettes and Bay City Rollers were yesterday's version of Boyzone and Westlife.
I always prefered Slade, T-Rex, The Who etc. Edited by Heavyfreight - October 11 2006 at 11:52 |

Now THAT'S prog! Wheeeeeeeee!
I remember it -- though it were best forgotten. I would have been 14, and puking in a sneering, superior fashion.
 Now I can laugh -- thanks!  Edited by Peter Rideout - October 11 2006 at 23:03 |

Yeah, pretty nice, Atkinsgranny -- but too much mascara, and no man should ever move his bum like that!

According to an urban legend widespread here Kiss copied their mascaras from S & M. On the other side, singer Ney Matogrosso (the one with the moving bum) was the first artist as long as I remember that left the closet publicly here - more than 30 years ago!

 Okay -- one bad turn deserves another:
One of my all-time WORST 70s songs (and a huge hit) -- the very definition of SAPPY!
Ah, such masterful, moving lyrics: "We had joy, we had fun, you put something up my...."
I bet some of you actually like it -- admit it!
Such poetic pathos! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!  Edited by Peter Rideout - October 12 2006 at 00:09 |

I was told that sometimes Ney Matogrosso was arrested after such performances in his gigs. That should be too much for our so judicious dictatorship.

@ Swanhild: indeed, but I think one of the band members were a son or a grandson of a General and so...
