I earned, borrowed, or stole the money needed for a single in those days... and I never saw this amazing group live... soothing voice? Drink fukin coco... these guys rocked!!!
@Gusdocs1 You got that right,just superb even now.Many great memories of the band and the tank tops and hot pants,cant be repeated by any modern band .
I remember getting with a group of mates and singing this as well as other Slade hits in the playground with air guitars and air drums. Well we were just 9 or 10. As the years went on Slade just got better and better. They always had fun on stage and didn't take themselves too seriously unlike the drab manufactured stuff today. Perhaps that's why they lasted some 20 yrs or so instead of 2 months.
All Slade fans! The Official Online Slade Shop is open and it's great! Got all the albums aaaand it has a couple of special podcasts detailing the Slade Story... if you're a fan like me, check it out! Spread the word.... SLADE!!! sladeshop . com
@Orange0Bananas0suck Stick to sucking Bananas or the other phalanx shaped objects you clearly suck judging by your stupid youtube name! Heaven forbid i was ever in your company. Slade were the ugliest,most pointless,talentless atrocity ever to emerge from england in the 1970`s and i include peter sutcliffe in that! Yet you probably make them look like angel faced cherubs, not that ill ever know, THANK GOD!
@73reider I'd give Slade 5 out of 10. They are visually interesting and Noddy does have an exceptional voice. None of the band were good looking and, (seeing as it was the Glam era ) they should have worn tonnes of make up to disguise their below average looks!
The best band of the era was The Sweet. I'd give them 10 out of 10.
@proslade Thanks for your opinion. If you haven't heard them, please listen to "Lost Angels" and "Stairway To The Stars", by The Sweet. I don't think Slade could equal these, but I'll keep an open mind as I haven't heard every Slade song.
@bossendenwoodconvict I know Lost Angels, not Stairway to the Stars. I like the last one better than Lost Angels. My point of view is, that the Sweet were one of the best Glam bands, but Slade much more, they played violin and piano ballads, country, blues, punk, funk later even jazz, gospel etc. etc. I think the Sweet did not equal that versatility. Plus, they took songs to a higher energy level I think. But it is nice to hear from someone with a different insight and taste.
@proslade Thanks for that. One thing we can probably agree on is that both Slade and The Sweet are ten times more interesting than anything around today.
@bossendenwoodconvict I see, but that is a very generic answer! Eeeh my favorite Sweet song is "Life s like oxygen". Brilliant. But there are more. I can recommend you channels here that have 50-100 Slade tracks, proving their versatility and evolving to other styles and genres, but if you prefer to stick with your genaral and generic opinion based on a few 70s hits, (like most other people) than that is pointless. But thanks anyway!
@bossendenwoodconvict what a load of bull. Speak for yourself pls. Slade were mastercraftsmen live and in studio. How many Slade songs do you know honestly? You shoud listen to all their albums from 69 to 87 and their B sides before you make another ill informed comment. My guess is that Slade have more truly great tracks just as B sides than you will find in the entire discography of the Sweet. real tunes, not drivel
@bossendenwoodconvict No you are praising the Sweet as much as you can on a Slade vid, picuring them as double as superior to Slade. That is simply not real. Of course I don t mind your giving your opinion, don t get me wrong! Eeeeeh check my channel.
