Mich hat das mitunter zu 18 Monaten in politischen Knast in DDR gebracht ....Stasi 😂.....war nicht schön....aber pil ist in meiner Zelle geritzt...frag nicht
Ich war 6 Jahre alt, als der Song raus kam und fand ihn schon als Kind Richtig genial. Yeah. Man muss einfach zappeln, bei dem coolen Beat und dem fetzigen Gesang. ❤🎶😍🤗👍🎹💃
1983..Bristol Uni with my new man..he kissed me through the whole song while on the dance floor...we married in 1984...still married, still loving kissing each other, so I guess THIS IS A LOVE SONG ❤
@@tyronfrayne7069 yeah , love PIL and Johnny is a crack up , I would have liked to have seen them when they toured down her 🇦🇺 some years ago but I missed out 😞
Indeed! It's terrific how the sequence links the emptiness and nonsense, as well as reinforces the key point of the lyrics: I will do what you want (neoliberalism, war) but obviously, nothing to celebrate here, an open anti-anthem. Well, I arrived at this clip after reviewing the movie again. It's also pretty interesting that Lydon, at the end of the clip, seems an animated character. I'd love to ask Ari about it or maybe I'm overthinking
This song saved my sanity at several 80s discos. 3 minutes of joy, a liferaft in a sea of Spandau Ballet Kajagoogoo Haircut 100 Black Lace Shakatak Stock Aitken Waterman and other such hell sharks. Bless you Johnny!
Brian Peters - Correct, most younger people don't get this was anti anti establishment and anti new romantic and all the rest at the time. It was by all definition an outsider song in a class all of its own.
The beats to this song is magical plus the vocals from a legend himself. This is what we need today a music movement from those who really are true artists. Would love to sit down for a cup of tea with you Johnny just to hear your views and the way we should be really living life with proper music and definitely a society that is worth living in. A true man with a very big heart must respect pal
@@mtvso8000 thank u so much 😀😀😀!!! I am a painter, for hobby. I care a lot of this portrait, and yes i love him, for me he was nice looking and the voice of punk in UK, i prefer him then Sid 😍 But i love Pil too, in a different way.
@dhouse he definitely changed music, ways people think, and definitely gave people the energy to be free and become their own person and dress, say and do what's right.
April 1986 Berlin .. Just as Chernoyblee exploded 2 records in Krautsburgh Me,myself & I. Joan Army. & 12'' inch This is not a Love Song '' Oh my life lol
En 1983 j'avais 16 ans. Évidemment , les plus belles années. Ce titre avec cette magnifique mélodie à contaminé tout mon entourage. J'avais toujours plein de LP'S.
no its not today problem! it started in rome long time ago when they steal heritage from greece and twisted it into new ! then the rome switched into vatican... we dont want to see it when it started really , just screaming about the end result ! we just dont want to see the first and second steps , and we are angry on the last step or the last nail ..
You only feel that way because your life is not in order. The only person who can put it in order is you. Do that and then you can try to change the world. After all, why should we take advice from someone who can't manage their own life.
What do you know about my life ? I am safe and successful, but I see so much pain and corruption in the world. I do not have my 'life in order' because I empathise with others ? Your comment is a sad revelation of your limited thinking. @@IamaCosmonaut
Johnny is the most fascinating, authentic, charismatic, intelligent, kindhearted, gorgeous rock star on the planet! Rock star, author, actor, artist, TV presenter. Is there no end to this man's talents? Pure genius! I could watch and listen to him all day! I am transfixed LOL! He is so entertaining! Seen PIL live several times and enjoyed. Love you Johnny! xx ❤❤
I saw PIL in the early 90s and Nirvana in the same month at our uni in Oz and although Nirvana was massive, massive... John Lydon was the best entertainer hands down!!!
....from Good save the Queen....to This is not a love song....the Evolution of John Lydon...underrated....not only the hateful shouter of punk times....more playingtime pn diverse radiostations....long live PIL
His dancing is at least as unique as his voice is :)) He is one of those that people SHOULD listen to, even more when he is talking about anything. Each street of this world should contain at least one Lydon.
@@tintobrass532 I was 8, but yes! I was so tuned-in to the charts growing up, that I now relate way more to '80s stuff, and with far greater nostalgia than to the stuff I heard in my 20s.
It's weird how age changes your perception of time. When I first heard this I was in high school and the Sex Pistols were something from way back in the 70s... Now I'm like: "WTF, it was only a few years later"
John Lyndon you are a prophet. Dont ever change. Your one of the "stars" who still believes. Bless and I'm prayering for Nora and I really hope that prick up there shows a wee bit of kindness.🏴
I was born in 1967. This song made me jumping around in discotheques in East Berlin. I will remember it till the end of my days
That's really true. 😎
I'm coming with you. It was a great time!

not anymore. he's a nazi now
The natural evolution of a respectable British man . The Punk, the pinnacle of civilization and freedom
Ending up as a Zionist and fascist?
@@ledpupZionist and fascist? What are you on about?
l think you might be right.

This has to be one of the best sounding rock singles from the 80s, everything is so crispy and clear.
This is the first 45 single I bought. I love how Johnny took the punk attitude and bought it into the new wave progression.
The official song of Valentine's Day.
yeah
Too right.
Perfect.
The Bass makes this song 2024.
That's because Jah Wobble is on it!
I fully agree with your comment
Dad: Turn that off
Me: Why?
Dad: We have bigger speakers downstairs.
how superb is to have parents who actually care for their children's experiences
Good dad
GReat ! ;-) I love your father ! :-)
Caught my 15 year old listening to the Sex Pistols on his mobile. Never been so proud!
it has to played on Full blast and proper speakers This classic
This Is NOT a love song. I love this Song because Is NOT a love song 🤟
The only orange guy that deserves our love and admiration.
1983..Bristol Uni with my new man..he kissed me through the whole song while on the dance floor...we married in 1984...still married, still loving kissing each other, so I guess THIS IS A LOVE SONG ❤
I liked the part when he said this is not a love song
Can you post time stamps, please?
Aguante Johnny rotten
Wow you really are bright
Frankly
@@modicksey7349 Thank you for your sincere compliment.
I just want to know one thing ......... is this a love song ??
Can anyone watch this video,without smiling...? Thanks John..You are a Legend...
No 🙂
It's the video that makes this song- the lyrics aren't up to much 😂
@@janeholstead3745 John deliverd these lyrics in his own most unique way ..Which really make"s them Work...:)
I'm smiling love johnny rotten
@@tyronfrayne7069 yeah , love PIL and Johnny is a crack up , I would have liked to have seen them when they toured down her 🇦🇺 some years ago but I missed out 😞
Actually yes... Because the song reminds me of "Waltz with Bashir".
I'm starting to suspect this IS a love song
Well he is a punk so naturally subversive
I think you might be right.
But this is not a love song
What is a love song
is this not a love song?
Lyrics:
This is not a love song (repeat 98 times)
Thank you, you're welcome.
@Tobbe Häggberg this song is wonderful. Its kind of a protest against the "Love songs" of the charts at the time!
@@antonioeisadora John Lydon said that "this is not a loved song" was really a love song... but in his way...
get a life
Hahhahahhahahhahahhahahahhahahhahahhahhaha
I thought I knew the words to this song, there are more than I thought
He was once one of England's most hated men but is now a national treasure. And rightly so.
+cam docks alright then america, just try not to shoot this one then
+Nathan L W Hughes David Beckham?
+Nathan L W Hughes if he came to Ireland, bought a derelict property, cleansed the rats and propped up the economy,, I'd not love song him too.
Why was he hated.
For the Sex Pistols mainly and the moral panic they caused.
Imagine driving on a highway and seeing a man with an orange haircut, who stands up on a car and screams "this is not a love song"
That would be great and made my day
This is not a highway
Luv it!!!
1983!?? Damn... This could pass today without problem and reach top charts.
czcams.com/video/szEaAkU32rg/video.html yep
its that bad
Nah don't think so. Today autotuned "rappers" or pop singers are in the charts
No it couldn't. It's commenting on something beyond the immediate gratification of the singer.
It looks/sounds way newer somehow.
The *Waltz with Bashir* segment with this song is so beatiful in its portrayel of a foray at civilian life of a soldier who has seen _things._
Yes! That scene in the disco and the girl he likes. Quite a horror show for animation - but well worth repeat viewing!
indeed

The passage of time has turned this into a song I love...it's now a loved song.
Friends and I ran a punky nightclub called 'Speed' in the late 80s in Glasgow and this was the first song we ever played.
Nice, the name sounds like a reference to amphetamine.
The cleverest song about not wanting to sell out ever.
Such a romantic love song
hahaa. how the fuck do you arrive at that? lol
totally agree
Anarcho vegan. Amazing haha.
Suzy Says
Suzy Says To go tyeu
Love the quirkiness, and nonchalant cheekiness of this song 😘
Well said!
Schade dass es solchen Band's nicht mehr gibt 😢
This is actually a love song. John was pulling our legs all this time
This is my favourite love song
This is NOT a love song. The clue is in the title. Dear me....
craig cotter Absurd. How have you come to such an outrageous conclusion?
Clue is who is singing and the subverting of the pop culture.
Not. PIL.
so it's not a love song then - or?
I reckon it's not a love song. Johnny speaks the truth!!!
I always love the catchy bass in this record- a great rift!
Class
Riff - the word is “riff” not “rift”
I wanna go to the Riff Valley. @@frankmachin5438

Every Valentine's day i need to come back here
what a fucking genius song
It's great, liked it when released, love it now.
Yeah, and apparantly, it's not even a love song!
love ur name haha , also the song
How is this a 'genius' song? Come, explain your insight to this pleb.
His white pale skin and his orange hair are a great mix
You too!

@@freezing_moon94 i feel the exact same.
STILL ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!
Great little riff that make this song so good,
This man changed everything in the 70s.
In a particular area of 'entertainment'
Vero,!

This is one of the best and funniest music videos I've ever seen.
The best love song of all time!
@Timur Aliev its a song about love
My fav part starts at 2:05 - this is where Johnny's vocal gets stronger and exhibits THAT thrill I love!
To this day, i still cant work out why i like this.... Logic would tell me his voice is irratating, but i enjoy it
Because its Art
Vrdd
Love the voice 😍
That's why you like it, because it's irritating
Theres more personality in that voice than any of the auto tuned arsewipes that followed
great song-sounds as epic today as it first did back in 1983 when i first heard it
En 1983 j'avais 16 ans. Évidemment , les plus belles années. Ce titre avec cette magnifique mélodie à contaminé tout mon entourage. J'avais toujours plein de LP'S.
Ahahahahahah les française
Everybody must realise how significant this piece of art is today . Humanity is being crushed to death by the evil industrial complex.
no its not today problem! it started in rome long time ago when they steal heritage from greece and twisted it into new ! then the rome switched into vatican... we dont want to see it when it started really , just screaming about the end result ! we just dont want to see the first and second steps , and we are angry on the last step or the last nail ..

A living legend John Lydon ... and a song way before it's time.
great song so different so showing your own individualism and style why cant we have a bit more different in todays music?
This is not a love song, but it's a good song.

This song is so anti establishment, it's brilliant! Lydon is a legend and a national treasure. X
Anti-establishment (!) is the word I was looking for all my life. Will borrow that on your permission.
He's more like a anti-national treasure
makes me feel good living the simple life. anyone who dont like can screw.
This has to be one of the most annoyingly brilliant tunes ever written. Serious hook
chorus hook reminds me of Juanito The Bandito by Adam and the Ants.

What a legend! Classic
Lydon has always been honest and a real risk taker, unlike many of us!
This guy would have been a good actor, maybe in a Joker's character. It's interesting to watch his facial reacts.
This guy lol
not today with his weight :(
Watch the movie 'Order Of Death'
Don't worry. One day The Joker will play John
That guy always preferred playing himself rather than pretending to be someone else.
this is note 🎵 a love song John Lydon and im gonna hug you now whether you like it or not; cause this song is one of my favorites..🤗❤🦋

everyone in my house is asleep rn and I'm trying so hard not to burst out laughing at John Lyndon's amazing dancing skills
Same here
Ha Ha i'm thinking the same thing right now, while i am trapped in my house ;)
Johnny Rotten, ftw.
That’s how I dance lol
@@DwaykeTubes those dancing skills can't be learnt on Strictly, they're from a man who doesn't care and I love it
I love his movements. They’re so weird.
I can tell this is not a love song
Great song, so RAW with the tall building in the background.
Such an amazing vocal range.
Brilliant song,
I love it!
The catchiest song ever. The video rules, such a crazy, free vibe. Love it.
The 'Commercial Zone' version leaves this for the tired, wan attempt it unfortunately is
What did you catch from it though? Mine was not love disease.
Love it not, you mean.
Que música boa!
One of the only albums what becomes an actual story....... Not many albums can say that..... LEGENERY....... .
Johnny Rotten / John Lydon is a legend, i mean he was and still are the frontman of The Sex Pistols & PIL, he fucking rocks !
and now King Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar
Stink Fistula Yes, he will do it well in the role, cannot wait :P
A masterpiece on its own
well, i loved it from the start.
Sounds like a love song to me.
this song is a kind of protest to the kind of songs played on the radio at the time!
for some reason I have had this song running through my mind for weeks.
Brilliant to hear it sounds fantastic
Great watching this down the Pub on the Video Jukebox back in the day !!!! Oh I miss them days !!!
From memory, this song was about the loss of his mother.
No, that was Swan Lake/Death Disco.
Exactement
My heart is bursting with the love I have for this man
A genius.
Write him a love song
E io la riascolto....
He is a really good man
Amen
His dancing is at least as unique as his voice is :))
He is one of those that people SHOULD listen to, even more when he is talking about anything.
Each street of this world should contain at least one Lydon.
