[91kient]

I AM GETTING A PROSITUTE NOW



[stevo728822]

@91kient In my town there used to be a late night alcohol delivery service called Liquer Out:) This tart with bleached blonde hair and black leather boots would turn up in one of those Rhino 4x4's with caseloads of booze in the back.

[1jackiea]

Happy Birthday Rick (12 Oct) all the best ,enjoy also Get On It !!!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[burns1961]

This is the best 4 minute Quo song ever thanks Rick for writing it.

Just bloody brilliant.

[Frankie3937]

[LeszoLBK]

1:23 Tony Iommi on bass ;)

[motorhead157]

[1jackiea]

RICK PARFITT , xxxxxxxxxxx .

[wideernie]

@1jackiea

I think half the bloke on here agree with you

[cathusquo]

At least Alan could head bang properly, and not look like a whirling dirvish!

[cathusquo]

@Truimphful, You are so wrong! Seen Lancaster playing live many a time, and the guy was such a big part of Quo, You're talking through you're arse.!

[euronick61]

was never really a Quo fan in my younger days...but as I have got older have learned to appreciate them,..this is great

[redtom43]

stick yur thumbs in ya beltloops and twist them ips !

[Truimphful]

Why this was not # 1 I know not.

[Truimphful]

Lancaster has all the rhythm of an overgrown Yorkshire Terrier being shagged to death but still they beat ACDC on this song alone.

[lewisner]

@Truimphful You're not only wrong, you are wrong twice.

[Truimphful]

Lancaster has all the rhyem of an overgrown Yorkshire Terrier being shagged to death but still they beat ACDC on this song alone.

[GrandadNorth]

Red Sky is on : In the Army Now

Rockin' All Over The World is the album of the same name!

[Truimphful]

@GrandadNorth ta!

[Truimphful]

My first ever cassette album was in xmas 85. It had red sky androckin all over the world. What was it called///? anybody.

[YellowLickilickyXL]

Such a fantastic piece of metal music

[forzaceltic1888]

this is the best quo song

[1jackiea]

@forzaceltic1888 why not listen to these ,Dust to Gold ,Gravy Train ,Electric Arena ,Hold Me ,Alright .(see what you think ).

[burns1961]

@forzaceltic1888 Im with you on that one.

[widdyhabb]

@forzaceltic1888 All SQ songs are the best!

[cathusquo]

@Dezziethecat A mint vinyl Blue for me!.My prize possessions are photos of me and the lads in HMV shop ,London in 1982,(especially the one of Rick giving me a very close hug!.)Also my album"Dog of two head",which is signed by them all.

[nicadcock]

friggin awesome 

[kingofpunk1977]

I wish Quo would release a bullshit free compilation of just fast rocking stuff like this & no kak like in the army now. If anyone wants to tell me their 10 hardest songs I would be interested thanks

[1jackiea]

@kingofpunk1977 check out Dust to Gold ,off there new C .D. ,it's cool!!! Frozen Hero ,as well .

[locorojo25]

heard this for the first time on an old totp last nite. tune. cant get it out my head. oh and im beginning to ask questions about my sexuality looking at 1976 rick lol.

[Truimphful]

@locorojo25 I heard it in the same way! I am a SQ fan for years and never really noticed it. The guy is a God, nowt wrong with your soul, he is to be admired.

[wideernie]

The Open G riff, solo and part immediately after the solo just blow me away. Fantastic song!!!

[cathusquo]

@Dezziethecat .Good for you! Next the long hair,then the motorbike and I'll be there!

[Dezziethecat]

@cathusquo I see all those old rockers on their Harleys.....long hair, crazy facial hair, denim everything.....can't wait to retire and join in!!!! Always loved Quo-have a mint vinyl Blue For You in my top drawer, just bought 6 months ago.

[12quo]

Never used to like this, now I can't stop listening to it! Best number from Blue for You.

[Dezziethecat]

Watched this and went out and bought a scruffy denim jacket.....and I'm 52!!!!

[samcooper32]

AWESOME MAN!!!!! LOVE THIS SONG & THE CLOSE UP'S OF RICK!!

[hornstra1]

@taffize who the fuck doesn't

[silkiebreeder]

3 people thought this was kylie

[1jackiea]

@silkiebreeder thanks mate,you tell him.!!

[c130mover]

dogs  bollocks

[ThroughRock]

\m/

[sanduit]

J.C. is very speedy....



[luxyaltz219]

Seeing the Quo play this and Rain live on stage way back in late 90s at the Liverpool,summer pops was a dream come true .The Beach Boys were part of the double act and last to go on but the Quo were equally brilliant that night and look forward to seeing them playagain o2 arena ,Liverpool in the winter .

[1jackiea]

yeh of course they would,brian johnson just screams BON SCOTT was the best also leave QUO out of it.

[keithmarland]

great song just a pity theyre miming

[LukePhillips1883]

@keithmarland They're miming cause it's the official music video, not a live concert! ;)

[nimaipatel]

you cant better than quo..!!!

[1jackiea]

How HOT is Rick in this clip.mmm just lusting.

[1jackiea]

Met these guys in the flesh in the 70's at the hotel they were staying in Sydney. They were down to earth ,not stuck up at all. A day i won't forget, massive headache though from excitement.

[orangefieldbootboy]

This is true music listen to that guitar work.... simply the best

[underkyper]

I like to play mystery song on my fretless bass, i think it's dem metal markers that cause me to lose my way

[burnsmay]

The mid-seventies were great to grow up.Status Quo was the band that gave me a larger than life-feeling.

[atlantisrising100]

As a Aussie i grew up with all the great pommy bands...not even AD/DC hold a flame too these guys..plus they were hot lol yeah Francis

[spadge321]

ballox pal AC/DC would blow these cunts to kingdom come all day long,,, your talking SHIT !!!!

[silkiebreeder]

@spadge321 Another uneducated twat sounding off YOUR SO BORING WITH YOUR FOUL LANGUAGE AC/DC and the Quo are both the same just diiferent styles

[chester6264]

@spadge321 ACDC the chuckle brothers have produced the same sounding Album no light or shade for the past 30yrs. Live is the true measure of a band QUO in the 70's were the dogs bollocks.

[bucketgutt]

you cant beat an origional line up, quo for fucking ever

[MrDeclanhenry]

I f*ckin love this tune!! :) Makes me feel like a teenager all over again when i hear it!

[andygy2011]

Best bands love all there songs keep rocking QUO

[puggti306]

The QUO STILL ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[deeko68]

try keeping to the speed limits if this comes on in the car. what a tune.

[RaunchyRocker]

Let's just face it Quo went bleedin shit after the other two proper Rockers left ! Am i right or am i right ?

[luxyaltz219]

Friday night special and I go straight for Rain and Mystery song , time and time again ... makes me feel 17 again

[puggti306]

@luxyaltz219

Right on brother!

[nightnurse8]

teenage memories....absolutley fantastic every time I hear it, it just keeps getting better and better...xx

[TheYugo80]

reminds me senior high school..

[GerryRocks64]

me too with 47!!!

[chrisnewcastle61]

best ever

[rigormors]

Back to basic....and still # 1, nobody does it better, Quo rules !

[vn15001]

takes me back years nice one 

[SlurkaDurka]

simple lancaster rules

[underkyper]

Many apologies monsednoch, I was taking the wee, I am 50 odd. I remember blasting out this one in my Mk 3 Cortina with windows down on the way to the coast.

[cr250rry]

Quo's finest.Nuh said.

[underkyper]

I'm 17 now, but i feel 50 when i hear this song

[monsednoch]

@underkyper Dont take the piss, you'll be 50 soon. trust me.

[impact1]

Its the easy way out for all concerned to be stubborn and not to reunite. It says a lot more about your character if you are willing to set your stubborness aside and to give at the least the people /fans that made you a multi millionaire what they would love to see: the frantic four ,with andy bown of course also there, reunited. Greatest band ever by the way. A unique sound. No match on these guys.Killer song!

[Qybo]

And on the eight day God created Status Quo and saw it was good.

[luxyaltz219]

This is the essence of Quo ,,,pure 12 bar blues ...wicked rock n roll

/falls off stool

[funnycod]

Nobody, but nobody rocks like Quo, this track is AWESOME, I'm 57 and it still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

[widdyhabb]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! ROCK'N'FUCKIN ROLL, MAN!!!!!!

[jonbexx]

this takes me back remember buying this saw then at glasgow apollo in 1977 bloddy awsome that place realy moved

[KyleAB5000]

im 13, i grew up with status quo, i still love em :D

[Ronnykennet]

THIS IS WHAT I´M TALKING ABOUT!!!!

[DaleTurrell928]

Forgot how good Quo are, this is an iconic track from the 70's. The 'Hello' album is one of the best

[quiraingview]

@DaleTurrell928 'Blue for you' album this track is on.

[the4everwolf]

thank the heaven that my dad made me listen to this :D

[puggti306]

Also into my 50's now, this song is probably one of Quo's best, still feel like I'm in my teens when I listen to this, I could listen to it over and over! Thanks for putting this on you tube.

[2001perseus]

@puggti306 I'm in my 3rd teens now too. They were at their best around 1975 and rocked my socks off.

[puggti306]

Also into my 50's now, this song is probably one of Quo's best, still feel like I'm in my teens when I listen to this, I could listen to it over and over!!!!!!!!!!

[jimmythepainter]

Favourite Quo song

[fifthof]

[atlantisrising100]

[macvaine]

[macvaine]

@TimMiddleton

[rhinoal]

Takes me back to some very happy days....not that I'm not happy now, of course!  ;o)

[stevo728822]

The Bretheren salute you!!

(The Bretheren: the pirates under the command of Captain Henry Morgan of Port Royal Jamaica).

Give me that next bottle of Kill Devil!!! Ahhaaaaaaaa.

[enviroenergysys]

We hammered the album "12 Gold Bars" when it came out and this one got more of a flogging than any of the others. I hit 47 the other day and it makes me feel like I'm still a young rocker. I'd love them to come back to Australia. I saw them in a theatre in Cairns QLD, and nobody was sitting. They were dancing on chairs, in the aisles and anywhere available. I had hearing damage for 3 days afterward but it was the most amazing rock concert and absolutely worth it!

[JRWILDY]

the best intro ever.

[QuoBabe]

Love this one!!!

[Ronnykennet]

THIS IS REAL STATUS QUO SONG, REALLY NICE!!!

[MakinMagicFractals]

The best Quo song IMHO.

[TheSpanishkiller]

i think i am the younger here.i'm 13 and i love this song!!!

[streatleyred]

@TheSpanishkiller good man

[taffize]

this is quo, anyone else got goose bumps

[eeby7]

@taffize yes!



[66pbm]

[biggayone]

and there are many who say that is 2 quo tracks too many!

[carlosdeno]

the best quo song ever, than rain...both written by rick when he was in the studio all night high on speed.....still love the quo brings back great childhood memories....

[Tinker8177]

whats this song called? its a mystery hmmm

why didn they think of a proper title for this great track lol quo rock

[tonybaronie227]

Wow!!!! this reminds me when me, my brother and a mate startled the neighbours by playing air guitar on next doors shed roof to this whilst playing it at full blast !! BRILL !!

[buffracing88]

oh to be back on the old honda 750 f1 dresda and listening to stuff like this

[oongi96]

amazing song gets me happy and makes me feell like partying

[Broeseler]

Ich bin 49 und ein Monster Musik Fanatiker!

Resümee in all den Rock geschwängerten Jahren:

STATUS QUO waren die Besten. FRANTIC 4!

That´s a fact!

[mrsgrout]

takes me back to Bremerhaven, (west) Germany '76

[lewisner]

I'm 50 now but I feel 17 when I hear this great song.

[wolfk2001]

I`m 53 and it`s the same with me!!! QUO 4 EVER

[wolfk2001]

I`m 53 and it`s the same with me! saw Quo in August, it was GREAT!!!

[frontman62]

@lewisner Totally on the same page as you there! ... oh except I'm 47

Fantastic song, they dont write em like this anymore.

[streatleyred]

@lewisner me 2 mate

[gigamemo123]

@lewisner It's the same thing with me, funny how time moves on.

[lewisner]

@gigamemo123 Alan Lancaster is such a total rock god in this video!

[gigamemo123]

@lewisner Yes he is.

[rhinoal]

@gigamemo123 Lancaster was (and presumably still is!) an amazing bass player, absolutely rock steady, nothing flash. Shame this line up had to split, Lancaster got the blame for that as well, shame when people who worked so well together split up.

[hellascooter]

@lewisner THE GREATEST SONG OF ALL TIME!!!!... i ' ve left so many band knowing we will not be able to play half of this song!

[JANfromNL]

fender telecaster

[bryemycaz]

Times 2

[gilljoy]

VOX,AC30

[MrChubbington]

Saw them in concert in leicester at the Mondtford hall in 1978 ! yes man ! I was there! They fecking made us go beserk!

[Quo9tele]

Classic line up , Classic Quo :)

[streamer991]

on 2:01 I hear the voice singin' but mouth is closed for some moment, ...I think a lot of fuckin bullshit is shown on here!

[Cpttoxic]

stuff you watch on mtv are mimed to, actualy, every promotional video is mimed....

[Razor61289]

Its mimed though, this is the official video, back in 76, probably wasn't alot of money spent on promotional video

[Cpttoxic]

to be honest, seeing a band rock like this does more to me than an expensive video =)

[frehleysboots]

@streamer991 there miming thats why!



[carolineJ4]

Great band, love them all

[IheartRickparfitt]

Sexy fave song ever!

[PyroGhost27]

This was the first song I heard from them and it made me addicted!

[bryemycaz]

Snap me too, First herd this in 1985 and that was it Dad bought 12 gold bars vol 1 and 2 on cassette. Wore them both out.

[cheznunn]

Ah happy days, now where are the keys to my Yamaha FS1E.

[HotSummerof1976]

Classic Quo, did some head banging to this...
