Yesterdays Hero【Bay City Rollers】

[zaniac100]

Remake of a song produced by Vanda and Young for John Paul Young in Australia. (JPY was Scottish born)

[dmarkmay]

they are 1 step up from the partridge family... in other words they suck

[eskylover]

I was in 8th Grade when I watched them on Sat morning tv and thought they were the sexiest guys Evah... lol...now I'm 46 and can sing every word to all the songs... how nostalgic... Eric... I still love you:)

[nealadams70]

havent I seen your face before--werent you the kid who just robbed my store-?

[hippiefreak66]

bay city rollers are just such a fun band to listen to!

[InsaneSurvivors6]

Magnicaino!

[david552]

In their day, the Bay City Rollers were as big as Justin Bieber is now...

[jamie3101conrad]

love this song even though I'm from the 90's

[MajorBlaster]

When was this?  Maybe 74 or 75? The scary thing is that I remember the lyrics. I can't remember where I put my wallet five minutes ago, but I remember these lyrics from almost 40 years ago.

[roselilymay]

Love this song <3

[tararebanasi]

なんかこのライブの感じ、スゴイ熱いものを感じるんですけど！

なんか込み上げて来るもんがありますね！

[tararebanasi]

これを聞いたら、あの頃が蘇って来るようだ！

熱かったね！

あの時代は・・・

[Iby4nw8z]

Did this version ever chart anywhere?? I don't think so somehow. JPY did this better and it did chart

[jrwonderful]

John Paul Young's is better.

[begoneyoubum]

The real Bay City Rollers never played in Toronto at all! The recording company used doubles of them and low light conditions along with sound syncing to make it appear that they were in person but sadly they were never in Toronto.

[MerlinParish]

I wish it was still possible for talented people to become successful no matter how ugly they were.

[lesmacman]

@MerlinParish Obviously NOT in your case..

[MerlinParish]

@lesmacman ?

[cetta069]

@jasondanley

Absolutely I remember then in Toronto twice. They played Maple Leaf Gardens and the CNE...wow what wonderful memories

[siggy002]

Yes the album is definitely called Dedication (the title track is one of my favs) and the shot inside the album is from TO. I was not there, but I remember every move they made back then.

[siggy002]

I lived this - I loved this....I'm still in love with Eric Faulkner!!! LOL.

[raelene101]

[siggy002]

[gixer750ws]

they'll NEVER be yesterday's heroes in my mind - I love them as much now as I did in 1975!!!!! bring it on!!

[blaugrun67]

das war 1976

[kahlua1963]

This is a cover the original is from an Australian 1970's pop star called John Paul Young. It was huge in Australia in 1975. JPY had international success with "love is in the air" from the Australian Movie Strictly Ballroom.

[portglasgoejuniors]

Of course JPY came from Scotland. So the link is made.

[wozvideo]

@portglasgoejuniors

The link comes from George young of Vanda and young who are the songwriters for JPY. George Young came from Glasgow Scotland.

[turkkisydamessani]

Ich bin Jahrgang 66. Als ich anfing mich für sowas zu interessieren, waren die schon auf dem absteigenden Ast. Heute sind das ja alles "yesterdays Heroes".
