My bedroom was floor to ceiling with pisters,magazine articles record sleeves,bedding,curtains and so many clothes. It was such a wonderful time fir us,but i was heartbroken when Les died so young young,such a Tragedy,but his Voice and the Rollers Music lives on. R.I.P. Les McKeown,the man of my adolescant dreams.

      Hi! Where are you from? I´m from Finland. I like this song also, and in 70´s The Bay City Rollers were on top in Finland, so was Mud. Bay City Rollers did a live concert here in Finland in 70´s, and after that came Mud. My sister was a Bay City Roller fan and I was a Mud fan. I was in Mud´s concert in Helsinki. Have you heard Finnish versions of this song? Listen to Ville Valo´s version, it´s name is Jykevää on rakkaus. And Rauli Badding Somerjoki did a version of this song, same name: Jykevää on rakkaus. Please listen and tell me, what do you like about Finnish versions!!!! This originally version is of course the best, but please, listen to Ville Valo or Rauli Badding Somerjoki: Jykevää on rakkaus

I got lucky walked into a bar @ Allman Brothers were playing. I love watching documentarys on these bands. 1 thing im proud of I new my limit with Alcohol, never got in fights. My Parents sent 6 kids to Catholic Schools. My sister was born with Red Hair, I told her if people bullied her just say Im Irish its in my Blood. Were all in our 50s now. Kelli, my sister lives in Florida, some of us invade her house to avoid northern winters. I like to move out of NEW YORK mostly because of Taxes. 5 brothers 1 sister.

    My first crush! I loved this song and a friend gave me the album for my 12th birthday. For two whole years I was head over heels for Les. I subscribed to 16 Magazine and couldn't wait for it to show up in my mailbox every month with BCR on the cover. The magazine photos covered two walls of my bedroom. I dreamed of meeting him one day. BCR was my first concert, at the Berkeley Community Theater, when I was 13. Oh, the memories. Rest in peace, Les.

Sadly never got a chance to get a picture but my mum did a few years ago. Thanks to her I like the BCR. Bye bye Leslie, you made us cry xxxx

    This brings back memories of seeing the boys in Perth Western Australia and losing my voice over screaming and singing and dancing ... Seeing Eric was heaven... I was a 16 year old girl then and now I still remember the night..... Once and Roller Fan always a Roller fan in my opinion...

    R.I.P Les McKeown. I wasn't a BCR fan, but my old classmate was. It is a good memory to go to the high school entrance examination together in her dad's car. When I wanted to do my last pre-examination study, she ran a BCR cassette tape out loud. But both I and she passed the test.
