Slade's final crack at the charts and again the entire UK turned their backs, seeing the song as another attempt to get the usual "Slade Xmas Hit". Whilst My Oh My, All Join Hands and Still The Same all had their own meaningful messages, this song had something honest and rather special. It may not have been the way Slade should have disappeared but it was a fitting grand finale.
1991 ...bands around queen with innuendo, guns, metallica, and the explosion of nirvana. this is a nice song but out of time. this is the reason why after 20 years we can appreciate this.
and more.. the teens who bought records on 70's maybe stopped buing records on 90's all the top bands of the 70's got troubles on 80's and 90's apart queen and pink floyd ....is a wheel that turns
@ziofagio True that, but I think Slade are better than the ones you mentioned bar none. Slade are the best band after the Beatles, or maybe the best. Live act, number of real tunes, diverseness in styles, Slade are virtually unequalled. Nirvana, Guns n Roses, how many styles could they play? I love 80 s Slade, the last 3 albums are so different. Wonderful stuff. And also prefame Slade, the classical tracks etc. Once in a generation band, IMHO, however succesful other bands or acts after 1990.

Nice song. Great band Even though this, My oh My, and we all join hands sound the same and are structured in a lot of the same ways, they are always fun to listen to.
I'm guessing Noddy's glasses were an intentional "nod" (pun intended) to John Lennon. This song definitely has a Beatles vibe to it. Good track - this deserved to make top 20, easily.

first time I heard this one cheers - rave was kinda goin on then etc Salde were a great band for a kid to grow up with - their greatest hits stands as a greaat collection of guitar pop, the film is still great, they were great live, and they've grown old gracefully somehow - cheers to SLADE
wow never heard this before and it's great...noddy looks like a friggin crazy scientist out of a movie tho...my albums are pretty scratchy now, no Slade Cd's here in Canada.
@teddingtontcu thought you had got to feck out off here. why do u persist in pissing us good music fans off so much.if you dislike slade so much take the batteries out off your hearing aid and go to your doctor and he will tell u where to go because youre in need for some serious help in your musical needs
@teddingtontcu Hahahahahaha Teddingtroll is the wall of SHIT hahaha!!! That s so tacky from you as always!!! YOU will be in REAL SHIT forever if you think 'arguing' is the way to accomplish anything in your sad little existence. Anyway, you are 51, too old to get a life....keep the 'good' arguing with other commenters here, up!!! Great!!!
I saw Slade live (1980), they were fantastic. Best live band I've ever seen, bar none. So much energey on stage from all four of them! Sadly, there are no videos on Youtube to do them justice - they were just a bit too early, bands didn't often get filmed live in those days and the equipment just wasn't up to making bootlegs...
Noddy on his worst day was better than most other rock singers at their peaks. I wish I had seen Slade live (with the original guys, of course). Not a bad song, though, regardless.
Oh I dunno some of those 80's albums rocked, 'We'll Bring The House Down', 'Til Deaf...', 'Kamikaze Syndrome...' all had some incredible songs on them.
Love Slade! Can't believe they banned Salde in Flame here in the States. I got it before they did it though, but the album got ruined. Opps! Dated myself, huh?
I've just discovered Slade on YouTube. What a great band with great songs! I can't believe I've never heard of them. Why were they banned here in the US? I haven't seen or heard anything offensive from them.
@breezebro how old are you,, cant believe you have just found this great british glam rock band,, dont be fooled by the glam bit,,this band stood out on its pure talent,,they are the quintesential rockers of the purest kind,, hope you stick with them, they made a hell of a lot of songs, but they rarely made a bad one,,, truth is l dont know any to mention,, happy listening,,,rob,
@robharding1957 I'm older than the hills, I'm 57. They don't seem to fit in the glam rock category to me. I don't like much since the Beatles but I always have an ear listening for good tunes, that's why I'm surprised I missed them altogether. Not much air time in US, I guess.
@InklingFan I'm sure you know much more about it than I do since I ignored the whole glam rock era in general. I guess what I mean is that Slade seems to be better than what I consider to be glam rock and in that sense don't fit.
@breezebro No they don t fit the Glam category, that is a misleading perception of a band that had so much more to offer. If you are looking for making real tunes in an unparallelled number of pop and rock genres, Slade is the band, I don t think any music act in the history of pop comes even close if that is what you are looking for.
@ sladev! Ich möchte Dir nochmals für all diese Videos danken. Viele Tabs die ich sah und fast vergessen habe, viele Tabs die ich noch niemals sah. Du und Dein Engagement haben mir sehr viel Freude bereitet und mich an meine Jugend erinnert. Ich kann Dir dies leider nur auf deutsch schreiben da ich des Englischen kaum mächtig bin. Meinen Dank daher auf Deutsch.
The only one of them that never changed a bit, aside from wearing the top hat and coat, was Jim Lea...since the first clip they did, i have never seen Jim any different.
Great video - I'd not seen it before. It's difficult to watch it without being influenced by the knowledge that this was the end of the line. The last two singles were strong songs - quality to the end.
What I like about this song is Dave Hill just quietly getting on with being Dave Hill. He was the same when I saw in the 70s and 80s and was pretty much the same when I saw him later in SladeII A real professional.
Diese "100" Jahre alten "Mumien" haben mindestens 30-ig Jahre Musik gemacht die bis heute Kult ist und nicht vergessen ist wie die "Klassiker" der 90-iger. Slade ist und bleibt unvergessen! Schade das Du nicht geringste Ahnung von Musik hast!:-)
Kasselerkamm, I THINK what The Truth006 means is "They're performing in front of mothers who are 100 years old", rather than saying Slade are 100 years old.
My only issue is, that even though is this a brilliant band, they got desperate for a successful single, and acting desperate when miming to an emotional song is just painful to watch.
How on earth could this wonderful song have flopped, as the comments say, I wonder? Sure, it's for heart and soul, not for feet. Just another Slade masterpiece!!!
they played their own instruments, wern't pretty manufactured boy bands and knew how to rock and were genuine, not in it for the money the way they are now, re louis walsh and simon cowel
bands from 60's 70's had their school in blues, jazz, soul, funk, classical,etc. And apart from a lot of musical theory they got a put their hurt in what they do.
bands from now their school is pure pop music, alternative rock, or maaaybe 80's rock that was AOR and glam thats very different from those from 70's =(.
Great question and so true. My theory is that it's too easy to make electronic, synthesized crap now so fewer people learn how to play instruments, which takes years of practice. Plus kids today have too many other things to entertain themselves.
i wonder if noddy actually stands and checks his voice in the mirror and wonders if he should come back to the group? just a odd interesting thought, i love there music!
Funny, it was another "Universal" song - more subdued like this one, that spelled curtains for the Small Faces. Holder, who borrowed much from Steve Marriott chose to disband Slade after this, just as Marriott, dejected over the lack of interest in his "Universal" ended the Small Faces. Sure wish Noddy and Jim would rejoin Don and Dave.
A lovely coda to an exemplary career.Noddy's voice was still as amazing and heartfelt as it sounded decades earlier.Don Powell isn't miming on this;did he play on the record?
Jetzt mal aus Deutschland: "Universe" ist der Schwanengesang der absoluten Ikone einer Musik die mich seid 30-ig Jahren begleitet. SLADE: vielen Dank für diese Musik! Bei "Universe" können einem die Tränen kommen!
Slade was the most underrated band of all time! I absolutely LOVED all their songs but Universe is my fave! I know it's not as wild and loud as the old stuff, I guess I've grown with them. They are ROCK GODS!
Not too underrated really. After all,they wrote one of the best Christmas songs ever!!! & who could forget Noddy's voice?! (I've just heard 'Get Down & Get With It' & my ears are hurting)

wow, i'm 42; music i listen and play (i'm a musician): NICK DRAKE, ORNETTE COLEMAN, MILES DAVIS, JOHN COLTRANE, GENTLE GIANT, FAMILY, RESIDENTS, CAPTAIN BEEFHEART etc.
To a Slade fan this song is not average and forgetable. We all know Noddy and his style of always wearing something absulutely crazy. He's always been a bit of a clown......always smiling and happy.
I saw them I think in 1974or 75 and they blew my socks off. It was at the old Majestic theater in Dallas, Texas. Led Zeppelin sat in a box seat and the great late John Bohnom(probably spelled wrong) threw fruit at Slade. All in all it was a week-end to remember. Led Zepplin on Friday night in Dallas , Slade on Saturday night and again Led Zep on Sunday night in Ft. Worth, Texas. The good old days !! No ticket over $7.
Beautiful music! Great band!

Jetzt mal aus Deutschland: "Universe" ist der Schwanengesang der absoluten Ikone einer Musik die mich seid 30-ig Jahren begleitet. SLADE: vielen Dank für diese Musik! Bei "Universe" können einem die Tränen kommen!
Liebe Grüße

Slade was the most underrated band of all time! I absolutely LOVED all their songs but Universe is my fave! I know it's not as wild and loud as the old stuff, I guess I've grown with them. They are ROCK GODS!

Not too underrated really. After all,they wrote one of the best Christmas songs ever!!! & who could forget Noddy's voice?! (I've just heard 'Get Down & Get With It' & my ears are hurting)

This is a great song, but: Noddy looks a total gong in those glasses. That is obviously why the single didn't sell, dumb glasses :-(
So, the group grinds to a halt, Noddy and Jim leave and Slade is no more, just because of some daft specs...
SAHBfan 4 years ago
Do you really think a single of this band flops because of the mans glasses? Come on..
This song is very average and forgettable.
Woodern 4 years ago
To a Slade fan this song is not average and forgetable. We all know Noddy and his style of always wearing something absulutely crazy. He's always been a bit of a clown......always smiling and happy.

To louissmith 179
Absolutely right; that´s also what strikes me, watching all those videos. Noddy´s always looking so happy. Watching him makes me happy too...

I saw them I think in 1974or 75 and they blew my socks off. It was at the old Majestic theater in Dallas, Texas. Led Zeppelin sat in a box seat and the great late John Bohnom(probably spelled wrong) threw fruit at Slade. All in all it was a week-end to remember. Led Zepplin on Friday night in Dallas , Slade on Saturday night and again Led Zep on Sunday night in Ft. Worth, Texas. The good old days !! No ticket over $7.

Have anyone noticed how old rockers, with their long hair, resemble old witches a lot?
This song is nice but far away from Slade's best days.
Mottahead 4 years ago
If old rockers are lucky they look like old witches - sometimes they look like cueballs.
Jim Lea looked fairly youthful for a long time though.

Yeah he looks very young for his age and even sexy.

tbubba9090 4 years ago
My guess is that Noddy didn't want to do it anymore, but he agreed to do a couple more singles ("Universe" and "Radio Wall Of Sound" before he left.
"Universe" is a sweet tune, though. Slade has quite a few real nice ballads through their history. "Wonderin' Y" is one of my faves.
A great band with so many great songs. I wish Slade could have had more hits here in the States. But I guess it was our loss more then their's.
