@Steviemtothec One hit wonders? Don't tell me, you're from the US and are under 40 years of age, right? How did you get to see this video? By mistake? Status Quo have been going for the best part of 50 years, have recorded 77 chart hits in the UK, more than any other rock group. 22 of which have been in the top 10. Have recorded 29 studio albums and 3 live albums. Hardly one hit wonders, are they?
One of my favourites, but so glad that that I was around to see them at their very best in the 70's. Will never forget those concerts in Glasgow, Green's Playhouse (I think) still can't get enough of them.
I saw an interview with the boys ,and it was ultra clear Rick didnt like this number at all , thats Alan left ,he felt the music was slipping from Hard to Soft sound
This is a great song, i like it, but it is also the defintive reason that Alan left the Quo. It was too soft for the Quo and their was no appointment to put this on a record (back to back), something Francis did (agree).
No sabia el titulo y me ha costado encontrarla, para mi la mejor. Despues pueden seguir burning bridges,rock and roll,in the army.... Pero esta es especial, solo que la oi en otra version.
When I was about 4-6 years old, I became obsessed with Quo and almost 20 years later I still am :D This was one of my favourite songs on a video my brother got from our uncle, and that started it all off for me when I heard the music and 'borrowed' his tape... and never gave it back! :D
@sue2208 Sorry, I got the wrong end of the stick. A lot of people I know think men with long hair are sissies. I disagree. It is O.K. to have a crush on him though- I can think of a lot worse people to have a crush on.
@sue2208 He's had it cut short now. Plus, don't forget this video was made 27 years ago, (as of 2011), and he's aged a little since then. Still a thoroughly decent chap, though.
Sad but I used to work at the place where this video was filmed. For anybody interested it is the Sheraton Skyline Hotel on the A4 Bath Rd Hayes Middlesex....
Oh dear. This is where it all really went wrong for Quo. Nice enough ditty I guess but all wrong for Quo and makes them look so silly when only a few years earlier they were rock gods of the first degree. After this the old rocking Quo were no more and followed a path of watered down pop that was a crime agains the Quo name.
In your opinion mate but a proper Quo fan loves it or hates it just as we can love or hate anything they ever made from the 60's onwards. If you're part of the Quo Army never dog them about what they once were and are now, again in YOUR opinion.
Got to absolutely love the Quo!

@Steviemtothec You're obviously very young, or suggesting that all their records are the same. They've been making hits since 1967.

@Steviemtothec What Status Quo? They've been around a long time. Their music is usually heavier though.

@sue2208 Yes! What does it matter how long his hair is? It doesn't mean he is a sissy. Francis Rossi does not look like a sissy to me.

@verkaforever I didn't say he was a sissy, probably just jealous that his hair is nicer than mine !
