i bought this single when it came out-not because it was any good-really just to get him back in the charts because i'd been so crazy about t.rex in the early part of the 70s-totally caught up in t.rextasy! I remember being horrified at the way he looked at the time, having been so utterly gorgeous...
@bazbox Marc Bolan couldn't be bothered to mime properly in most of his vids - was he shit? Gloria Jones added a new dimension to Bolan's music.... though this song is awful.
Even at the ripe old age of 53 I still miss marc Bolan and his music. He had a massive influence on my life from a very young age, and I wish he was still here. I'm sure that he'd still be writing and performing his music. Even though I liked the accepted original T Rex line-up, I thought that his very last band were really powerful and talented, and marc had matured into a brilliant and potent star. God bless him x
Thank you Dylan for posting this. I've thought for years that the ending of this song should be considered as the first Rap recording.(I think Rap sucks btw) As for the haters and their negative comments,take a flipping Midol and go away. Because we don't care and we don't want to hear it. And to everyone else, Rock On, my brothers and sisters.
But...what is asda and hmv? I had Light of Love some 25 years ago. Actually got it in a sale bin at the record store. I think I paid $1.99 for it! Can you believe that? I wonder if it's even in cd format. I don't own a turntable at the moment. All my vinyl got stolen in '87 and then my turntable died...so I didn't go buy another one.
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this album anywhere? Does it come in cd format? I had the vinyl version twice and both times it got ripped off and I miss it so.........ox
ive got a album at home and its grt! i think i might of got it from asda...but not to sure..if not there try hmv...i went all over town lookin for somethin then went there and found it... gd luck
Tight ass band.

Cocaine, Lamé, and ego stroking sycophants don't always make the light of love shine, I guess. I thought they did
