Hanoi Rocks - Tooting Bec Wreck

Soooooooo! I was really SHOCKER when I noticed that NO-ONE had posted this song here before! So I decided to post it with some pictures of Andy McCoy, cause his the one that this song tells about, right? Well, if I'm wrong, correct me so I cant correct my mistakes! I decided to put the words too cause this song has so great words! And this is something unique, something that no-one else can do! Too great to be true!

--------------------------------------

People tell me I'm too high when I'm around, And
when I'm not I'm closer to the ground Well, I do
anything whenever I want, And I want to do it here
and now I'm on a one-way street, I can't retreat,
'Cos my mind and I play hide and seek They want to
make a problem out of me, 'Cos they want their own
problems unseen My mind's a gallery of memories, I
reflect the history I'm the sort of case of the
human race, That people find hard to face
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, I'm the
Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head I'm the living
wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, And I'm equal to
anyone I've met

I'm the second door on the third
floor, If you've got the key then please unlock me
But hey, don't talk to me, I'm not what you see,
I'm not here today, I'm miles away It's twice as
much reality when you're, Face to face with
history

Yeah its been a long trip, it made me flip
now i'm crawling on your bedroom floor now i'm
climbing up your bathroom wall and i search i
search in this shit i search for the eternal party
is it in my head or is it in my bed? baby, please
baby, I said baby is it here or is it there? what?
the second door on the the third floor tell me
more

I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
I'm the Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head I'm the
living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, And I'm equal
to anyone I've met and I'm better than anyone
you've met!

I sing la la la la la la la la la well

I just got back from the outer space, they call me
the Flashing Psychedelic Kid cos i'm spaced out of
my head you know it feels so good when i reappear,
and its so sad to see your self disappear... I disappear... well, it's too bad. And I sing!

Why do they have scarfs and hats on their heads indoors? Sensitive hair follicles or skin problems? It must be. Otherwise it's just silly.

[rocklikefuck]

[GlamAegnor]

[razzlefan4life]

[GlamAegnor]

I don't know :D Maybe because there's Andy in the pic ;D But yeah... I don't like HIM! ;D So, if you're(I mean anyone) a HIM fan then sorry!

[HannaMadonna]

This song is about their life in Tooting bec.

[ticklemeoreo]

Tooting bec has some beautiful scenery, but I agree the people are crazy. I grew up there :p

The pix remind me of the Good Ole Days,and All Those Wasted Years of my own,what I can remember that is...

[anskuhanoi12]

ya now in the book of 'all those wasted years' it tells how andy wanted those animal sounds on this song :D

[anskuhanoi12]

I think this is the best song they've made! <3 love them all. And I respect Andy really, all the hard things, like heroin and alcohol.. :)

[coachhiggs]

Such a great band. They have a ton of great songs and just never caught on. Not sure why, I'm not sure they were any more excessive than a handful of other big bands from that era. Too bad, a lot of people missed out on a lot of great music.

[Jupppeee]

Vastaa tähän videoon... and damn i want guitar tabs to that song,,one of the best intro riffs what i've ever heard...

[Jupppeee]

@NYrocknrollbitch yees he is :D actually here in finland... Now he can legally use drugs:D just a joke.

[NYrocknrollbitch]

ps, I think Nasty is a pharmacist in finland now. just fun facts.

@AndyHairCandy

it was about decadence, overkill and excess in that era anyhow, everyone looked great from GNR to the Gun Club. Hanoi just happened to look the best. I wear the boots, scarves, hats, bolos, mixed with my gal pieces and it's not about practicality at all...it's about loving my favorite band and having fun!
