About minus 14 year old- I'm 18 now, but I know that song. It really is the lowest common denominator, truly dreadful pap pop, and a smack in the eye to all those who insist music should be kept accessible and short. Such nonsense was seemingly rife in the 70s- 'Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep', 'Freedom Come Freedom Go', 'Son Of The Father', The Bay City Rollers, Showaddywaddy...just dreadful, dreadful stuff.
The Sweet often complained about being puppets to Chinn and Chapman. Their singles are kind of fun but very campy- the albums, though extremely patchy, have some really heavy stuff that's far above the glam rock tag as some songs even move into occasionally progressive realms. But don't worry, I'm NOT proposing The Sweet for prog related!!

I still love some The Sweet songs because they are good rock songs like Ballroom Blitz and The Sixteens  , way better than the average commercial glamrock like child molester Alvin Stardust

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 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SjwxPncrHI - this was pretty cool back in the day though (I was 11 years old).

and this is my introduction to prog though itself it isn't prog, it led me there.
Knew O Terço, well only the name really, never heard their stuff before, quite impressive. ah yet another on my wishlist, will it ever stop lol.
and a song from one of the first albums I ever bought back in early eighties.
A dutch band (Picture), ripping Queen's Tie Your Mother Down, no wonder I became a fan of Queen later on.

Nice thread, let's preserve it! We can remember the old stuff (and also show how things were for the youngest)!

Nice indeed. Good music does not remain confined in its age. Heck, the best of this old stuff sometimes makes me miss an age which I did not lived through (without detracting from what I did live through ).

I was minus 14 years old at that time. Can't say I'm familiar with that song, but it was pretty awful. |

I was minus 11 in that time but I know that song 'cause my father likes such records and I can listen to this song quite often on radio (like "Golden Hits" etc.)too. Not bad song anyway  -------------
