[oasismadferit7]

t-rex what a band, my dad listened to them and got me into them so grateful<3

[ranjanchadha]

You are dirty sweet and you are my girl, get it on. Yeah.

[GamesFrontiers]

Punk swept all this rubbish away.

[spiritofbebella]

@GamesFrontiers Idiot. You wouldn't know good music if you shat it.

[RonaldMichaelDavis]

@elhefe001

From Wikipedia: "Elton John had appeared on TV with Bolan before, miming the piano part of "Get it On" on the 1971 Christmas edition of Top of the Pops."

[RonaldMichaelDavis]

@elhefe001

Not only you..for the longest time im thinking it IS Elton John

[sunflower7202]

i heard noel gallagher covered this song

[sloggernobber]

Brilliant band. First saw them in 1970 at The Kings Hall in Belle View Manchester when Ride a White Swan went big. Saw them 3 times in all. Never realise at the time how much those days would mean to me.

[MrBeneveld]

get it on you heroes of the revolution

nothing happened yet

[tezzakc22]

[giaphia]

My first concert ever at Toronto with April Wine and Three Dog night headlined 1971 CNE Toronto

[1998foxpad]

yey! top of the pops XD

[Wrighty69ful]

Notice Elton John guesting on keyboards!!!

[AuberryDenTim]

@Wrighty69ful Notice Marsha Brady of the Brady Bunch?

[sehusson]

super jaime

[oyakubu]

Music was music in those days it was played and people listened, rather than now where performance is what music is. makes me happy to still play this in my car.

[lindatessaanna]

Just one of those tracks that cries out to be played at full volume, then goes thru every cell in your body!

[northernraider]

@lindatessaanna

All Glam rock is supposed to be played at maximum volume it was designed that way, very often on 45s and albums it used to tell you TO BE PLAYED AT MAX VOL

[michael17370]

what is the point !!!cut it short.?????why.

[Flagg1991]

Elton John on piano, everyone!

[TubobRainbowUnicorn]

this is a driving beat from a tyrannosaurus on acid driving a low slung camaro with fat rear tires punching it on a country road and smirking at his blonde girlfriend in a halter top and purple choker and short shorts and perfectly tanned bare feet on the dash and just as the camaro busts 130 she feels herself orgasm from the speed and the dino's fkng smirk.

[myfanwy50]

@TubobRainbowUnicorn Really? Lol

[terrybriody]

I remember when they were a laughing stock but looking back they were pretty good and more. Elton John on piano - why don't I remember that?

[musashihumar]

T-Rex is the shit. \m/

[bowpilot55]

OYAKUBU... you hit the nail on the head ...amen ..

[oyakubu]

@bowpilot55

X factor is rubbish , TOTPS was good I miss it. no OTT performance just music

[hullamajascot1]

@SecretariatOnSteriod Your obviously a frustrated individual,who has no chance of connecting with the real world.Dont comment if your an idiot .If you had an ounce of these mens talents ,you wouldnt be such an asshxxx

[rollendestenen63]

catchy,still

[billyjo1881]

the good old days, when men were women and women were men

[bostonrockgrrl]

@billyjo1881 You are FUNNY!!! The girls deadpan expressions dancing at the beginning look like the inspiration for the girls in Robert Palmer's Addicted to Love video-

[kris1976me]

if you look at 1:55, the drummer doesn't even hit the drums... :-)

[kris1976me]

yep indeed, mr Elton John on the piano...

[borisbulldog]

@kris1976me

I wonder if that was before Reggie was gay?

[Schule7725]

ich hatte die gleiche Frisur und glich ihm enorm... schöner Vorteil, heute habe ich eine beinaheglatze und einen Bauch, nun zum Tanz war dieses Stück nie gut,, aber gute Rhythmik!

[sabh001]

it was elton john ive just checked it out on google

[TheRockandroll420]

Get It On Hit The Bong

[TheRockandroll420]

Love this song

[sludgegulper1]

89 losers :)

[Redskin1040]

That looks like Elto John on piano.

[ctchreport]

@Redskin1040 pretty sure it is myself..

[guitarnashelter]

roger daltery much better,the who was making better music than this.in fact so was the despised gary glitter

[lendadorock1]

elton john?

[purplevolcano]

@lendadorock1 yes - they were mates for a time. John Peel was also a good friend of Marc's but Marc got all starry and dropped John.

[MiserableSpice]

No.1 on the day I was born. I'm very pleased.

[Stingbitten1]

@MiserableSpice Dave Yoxall I know you.

[theAnarcyMan]

what year was this

[MiserableSpice]

@theAnarcyMan =- 1971

[XHairXMetalXMagicX]

Id Smash That Blonde Chicks Box Still To This Day

[purplevolcano]

@XHairXMetalXMagicX Well let's hope you never get the opportunity...

[ndhan72]

Classic rock that rocks

[cheechnchongsbong]

@SecretariatOnSteriod ...um..err...Marc Bolan dated Syd Barretts Ex Girlfriend for years

[grahamw56]

To the critics/those who don't get these old songs. Remember they're all tied in with memories, for those of us who were 21 when this was released. For me this was one of the sexiest songs around at that time, with a mega base riff.....made to be played LOUD at parties.

[grahamw56]

Fantastic sound quality.....just as the original great song..thanks !

[MasquedBard]

i used to hate this song...but then i took an arrow to the knee.

[heroicndashing]

@MasquedBard seriously? this arrow crap is making its way onto t-rex videos now? god help us all!

[JediMasterCheryl]

@MasquedBard That's the best comment I've ever read.

[MsFanmail]

Marc was amazing my friens laugh at me because i like this music i am 37

[sssyntax]

@MsFanmail I hear ya, I think its the age bracket.

Many of my friends couldnt work out why I love T-rex either.

People older or much younger are usually fine with them though but Ive noticed that many around 30-40 still dont get it (on).

[kenimisoncanada]

Best way to hear this is to imagine a real T-Rex Dinasaur moving and groving toout T-Rex. the beat - try thinking of it an I'm sure you'll see in your imagination one way

[GamePat23]

i love Ballrooms of Mars better =]

[kittensaustin]

To RockGod...T-Rex is a band. And they were gay? And your girlfriend what? LMAO...your post makes not a bit of sense

[ScandinavianSingers]

Yepp, "keep a little Marc in your heart", groovy song! A T.Rex theme on my channel right now :)

[markuk40tftc]

[TOPDUDEASS]

HAIRYYYYY

[giglio33012]

Back when chicks danced to rock music.....

[icedragonraver]

[713nova]

[VancouvrIslandTunnel]

Great video!!!!

[frozone665]

not sure if its just me but im pretty sure that's Elton John on the keyboard

[Yellowseven1]

Just gets better..

[crazyhorse9289]

Did any one check out the alibi of the chap who marc bolan stole a song off but was later settled out of court, might have not been an accident you know ?

[slaktaren93]

Oh yes I love T.Rex



[SuperLizardBean]

Amazing Song! and it's the Mythbusters Theme!

[BongoClock]

I'm sure, "GET IT ON" was the greatest Song from T-Rex!

[lakepurdy1]

OMG!!! That Drummer is the most gorgeous hunk I've ever seen!!!

[jabom99]

Incredible to think that the blond at 2:07 is someone's grandmother now

[willianxp]

@jabom99 She also might have died of cocaine overdose by the next day.

[FaerieCrone]

@jabom99 Yeah well we all either have to get old or die young.

[hellozio]

@jabom99 she looks like marcia brady

[Prowler609]

@jabom99 and you ought to see her grand-daughter

[robl10001]

@jabom99 unless she was in the Mini too

[billyjo1881]

@jabom99 ..or grandfather

[jpcmd]

@jabom99 Yea, she's pretty Hot. Looks like Marsha Brady.

[basicaa]

I always regretted not seeing them in concert. One of my all-time favorite rockers

[Valenciadelcid]

Analógico 100%, excelente.

[oyakubu]

this is music, fuck X factor.

[TheRockandroll420]

@oyakubu Agreed my mom thinks it's sooo cool but it's just pure shit

[jim1a2a]

@oyakubu I Agree - i would rather spend a couple of hours cruising around Y/T for Decent music played by Decent 'Talented' groups and singers...

[oyakubu]

@jim1a2a

never used my radio in my new car, got CDs of good music

[philopolymath]

yep I see Reggie!

[cricketbat08]

Elton John appears with Marc Bolan, T.Rex and Ringo Starr in the 1972 movie, "Born to Boogie".

[warks12T]

thumbs up if you love this song cause it remembers you the good old times

[corpsemunger]

I'm in love with crappy Top Of The Pops 'star' effects - so good

2:36 - editors should use those nowadays

[MIKIMALMI]

<3

[hearditman]

@rynnebrian REALLY. The fact that Elton is visible and playing the piano in this vid led u to think that u might be alone in sussing it?????? Welcome back from Mars.

[charlton0314]

Marc Bolan, Elton John & Davie Bowe appeared in many music videos together

[arthurpussy]

@charlton0314 yes they were all mates and jammed together

[Zgreens]

Great.. I love you too much.

[TheHornetzBand]

:yaoming: Holy Crap!!!! this song is "Rolling Stones' - Its Only Rock N' Roll But I like It"......

[hollistar195]

Always reminds me of Billy Elliot! love that film !! & this song <3

[ppsh4332]

only england could produce this talent

[rafauleciaelcarpio]

malcolm young from acdc on drums!

[sunnybabydoll90]

@rafauleciaelcarpio ...I hope you're joking

[Gourmetbooger]

@rynnebrian Holy crap! I thought I knew everything! I was so drawn into the realization that every rock band since has copied these guys that I didn't notice!

[MasssTR]

0.33

thought he was wearing his bathrobe for a minute

+ this is definitely a lovemaking song

[cricketbat08]

This song is dirty sweet rock and roll

[RockGod08115]

[riceboi1983]

[hearditman]

@RockGod08115 Homophobe.

[kittensaustin]

@RockGod08115

T-Rex is the name of the band. They were gay? LMAO!!! You don't make any sense what so ever in what you posted?

[kittensaustin]

@RockGod08115

T-Rex is THE band. And they were gay? LMAO...Your post makes not one bit of sense

[RockGod08115]

@kittensaustin Are you a complete retard, blind or just not able to comprehend what I said?

[leafyutube]

This song and Jumpin Jack Flash make me wanna crash my car into a wall.

[maninblacklucifer]

@rynnebrian They were best friends

[yatter1]

Saw T.REX live at Bell Vue in Manchester in 1972 and they were shit, AND I STILL LOVE THEM.

[MrLFLEX]

La plus grande rock star de tous les temps, c'est .......... lui !

[GeezarTheMad]

@rynnebrian Did Years ago - wife got it on VCR tape because I love T-Rex, was watchin', Holy Moly (rolleys, nutha favorite band ) Thats EJ on keyboard, and He's about 16. Sorry they muted it - What Sound editors are for

[RAIDERS58th]

86 Dislikes??? Those motherfuckers deserve DEATH!

[helmutkluge]

@RAIDERS58th malakka.

[yatter1]

@RAIDERS58th DEATH?  They deserve way more than that, fucking idiotic, soulless, spineless, maleducated bits of loose stool water the lot of them.

[nqcowboys]

@yatter1 SOUNDS LIKE SOMONE NEEDS MEDICINE

[Desiree50able]

@HABISHMUCHA  YUP

[philea1100]

[elizabethbellion22]

[deafboyone]

two and a half million viewers cant be wrong... Why isnt Marc Bolan recognised by the Music Industry or in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame...?

[deafboyone]

two and a half million viwers cant be wrong... Why isnt Marc Bolan recognised by the Music Industry or in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame...?

[Joeyland]

Back in the early seventies, when great artists ruled like dinosaurs, Marc was the hippest of the day

[MmeDesgranges]

@Joeyland Right behind Bowie

[fp1000100]

classic rock!!

[jessicafischerqueen]

86 dislikes may have something to do with the fact this is a lip synched "performance."

Too bad about that really. RIP Marc Bolan the ill-fated hippy

[dantechua]

86 people who dislike thought t-rex was a dinosaur documentary and was disappointed

[bodin6969]

Influenced to Oasis!

[MrJasiek13]

The pianist looks rather like Robbie Krieger than Elton.

[cav914]

Legal, origem do Glam Rock, Marc Bolan, rock balada andrógino romantico, na medida à época

[DDayRockBand]

Please check out our channel we are a new rock band trying to bring this kind of music back to the top!!

[sperk31161]

@rynnebrian LOL he does

[bimbo9]

Elton John on piano? LOL, looks like him.

[TheEchovoices]

another genius gone way too soon :(

[caballolanus]

FUCCCCCCCCCCK, I LOVE THIS SONGGG¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[perecist]

I heard,another story and read about it,... that he had a lot of ladies,a thousand women,..as a popular rock star.

[syndrome76]

@BadAssVampires1 Hahahaha, and what if he was?! ;-)

[adeworks]

@BadAssVampires1 What people?

[CeeJayUKUSA1984]

Pure classic Rock, retro all the way. Old School's Granddad. But I really think cool continues there are peaks all the time--Busted, McFly, and American groups like Owl City and Boys Like Girls, to mention only a few of the many who have brilliant sounds.

[ClueBand]

Elton John in Hugh-Hefner robe on piano.

[towthewetsprocket]

Its funny, I was never old enough to appreciate this style of music when it was on air, in fact I did not like the 60's & 70's music until recently and compared to the modern music, T-Rex is very cool.

[greyrob56]

T Rex were the first band I ever saw, 1971 (?) Newcastle City

Hall, every concert since has been judged by that one. God bless! The perfect introduction to music

[aihds]

Yep cool was definately peaking around this time ........ 60 70s were the greatest times for a teenager especially if you were in rock bands in the times of Peace Love and Happiness and they will never be the same or cool ..... These days they pimp the word cool .

[walendxweg]

PARFAITES NotEs GO ing 146 KX  VOLL PURES SUITES //

[Maffytez90]

marc bolan, way ahead of his time. sadly missed.

[Lylodile]

Great.

[NCW250]

I once worked with Bill Legend, he was a really good bloke, and an outstanding Magic Marker visualiser. And I was a studio junior in a design studio in Soho.

[cricketbat08]

Lovin' the fact that Bolan has a Bolan sticker on his guitar!! :)

[cassetadasweb2]

it is elton john on keyboards?

[amazorky]

@cassetadasweb2 Yes, That's him.

[taxfundi]

A classic of the 70's.

[MultiRanger88]

EPIC

[flippyflyer]

A hot Martha Stewart with nice juggs at 2:15

[flippyflyer]

Marcia Brady at 2:06

[flippyflyer]

does anyone else think that we peaked at "cool" at about this time?

[Gfresh1620]

@flippyflyer No Never!

[awomanwonderful]

Oh yeah!

[LittleJoeChaplain]

Elton John is totally playing the piano on this video.

[sorstudios]

DAmn....Elton John?

[sagasthya]

[ilovethemelody]
