Even tho Gary Glitter was a horrible person, this is some amazing music. You can separate the art from the artist, but you can’t seperate the artist from the child...
Saw him in melbourne at festival hall in 1973... they opened with this. It's was epic. First time I'd ever seen 2 drummers on stage. He later rode a harley on stage! It was quite a show... that was a long time before we learnt the truth about him. If you forget who the performer is (bit hard) you can't not like this track!
The Glitter Band were the stage and television backing band. In the studio, producer and co-writer Mike Leander played the instruments. I think GG did too.

Kansas City Chiefs had it as their touchdown song for years. But after it came the artist liked little kids, they dropped it. Now we do the Beastie Boys.
My mother bless her when she was alive she could spot a wig at 50 yards .. when she found out he wore a wig long after his fame and just before his demise i asked her didn't you spot his wig her answer was classic she said and I quote " it was so ridiculous I never thought it wasn't real " ... Bless her .. ❤️
First heard this played at the youth club as a kid in the 70s . Great music isn't defined by a peado let him be judged separately the Glitter Band were an awesome band.
Right before I graduated from nursing school in ‘81, a group of friends and myself went to this raunchy, dive bar back home in NYC, located on the Lower East Side. One of my friends, Rena, and I got SO hammered that we began dancing this weird interpretive dance once this came on the jukebox (damn I’m getting old!!) I especially loved the bit where Glitter sings “”ROCK N ROLLL ROCK AROO ROCK N ROLL!!! “”Great fun crazy memories...thanks, YT!! 😊❤️
The use of this song was ingenious, not only was it a honestly good song and upbeat for the scene. But for those who knew Gary Glitter being a sicko it only amplified the decent into madness-aspect.
@@badwolfmovies69 He did nothing. He has been framed on hearsay. They locked him up without any proof of anything. Just some historical allegations that anyone can make up FOR MONEY. Its always about money. If it was that bad you dont wait 40 years to tell the story.
This song reminds me of the Denver Broncos and the Super Bowl of 1999. This song played at home games and I can still hear 75,000 people all scream “Yeah!” altogether.
I won’t, Gary was framed! Probably by the CIA in response to him making such good music they were afraid of it dangering the youth/causing an uprising.
11 Years old when I first heard this, in 1972, captivated since then, I had a massive crush on him...glad now I never met him, but, despite the paedo vocalist, the MUSIC was brilliant and out of this world.
I don’t think The Joker need a second part, although would be amazing join Ben Affleck as Batman and Joaquin Phoenix as Joker, but Warner Bros. have done a lot of wrong things.

Zeth Bro : Except that #GaryGlitter wasn’t funny, not if you were a child who didn’t want his hands on you.💔 Just so you know. It’s still a great song.
Loved all his stuff tongue in cheek rock n roll went to see him live etc now feel guilty listening "how the mighty fall"the music always be a part of my young life can't forget such great fun music
Even tho Gary Glitter was a horrible person, this is some amazing music.
You can separate the art from the artist, but you can’t seperate the artist from the child...
He's still alive.
I see what you did here
mank demelord funniest thing ive seen today
god fucking dammit you got me
Wait what did he do wrong
This will be 50 years old in Summer 2022 and it still sounds as good as it did back in '72.
I heard it back then in "72' and I was in school and 13 years old. back then you could hear it played at every dance.
Saw him in melbourne at festival hall in 1973... they opened with this. It's was epic. First time I'd ever seen 2 drummers on stage. He later rode a harley on stage!

"This will be 50 years old"
He won't want anything to do with it then.
I remember they would always play this at sporting event's in the 90's to get the crowd hyped up.
Timeouts in the 4th quarter of NBA games on Sundays on NBC, especially in playoff games 👍👍
yeah I'm hear because I seen some old rugby league photoage that this song playing #brisbane broncos
Regardless of what you may think of his music, Gary was a first class kiddy fiddler and nobody can take that away from him.
Lol
But the glitter band was not
Not all hero’s wear capes… wait… what???
Oh, good Lord.😂
I was 14 in 1972. Couldn't get enough of this. Thought Garyy was the coolest ever. If we only knew then what...........
me too ,,now Granny with three grandchildrens and teach them best good old music time
Me too, I was in a juvenile probation work camp run by Los Angeles County probation dept when this came out 😅😂 Hoo- rah 🪂🪖🇺🇸🔥💥
He thought you were the coolest too!!
Or hottest 🤷♂️
He probably did no worse than what Led Zeppelin did...let's enjoy the music and not dwell on the artists personal demons
I’m dancing to this right now, and I feel like an accomplice 🫣
Been rockin' with Gary since 1971!!!! I'm 65!! Still dancin rockin' rollin!!! I'm young mom ❤️ Gramma 💙 and g-grandma!!!!!! Anyone with me!!???

The Glitter Band were the stage and television backing band. In the studio, producer and co-writer Mike Leander played the instruments. I think GG did too.
Well said well bloody said
I love the song without giving credit to what he did in life. However the comments cracked me up. Pedophiles are evil. But it's a song. The rest of the band helped make the music.
Exactly, credit really goes to the innocent Glitter band/ Mike Lavender producer.

When this happens, we just credit the work by Hatsune Miku
The Glitter Band didn't play on any Gary Glitter studio recordings. They were the live band only. The only musicians you hear on the records are Paul Gadd himself and co-writer/producer Mike Leander.
Well said dear
The greatest thing is that the song transcends all the many movies in which it was used.
And also sports 🏀
Yes
It transcends being played at sporting events too.
Man Joker was without a doubt the movie of the year! I’m glad they put this is the movie!
It was lame
Absolutely love the double drum beat
The bass guitar makes this song memorable.

In those far off days
In their blue suede shoes, they would scream and shout
As they they sang the blues, let it all hang out
Rock and roll, rock and roll

Brings back great memories of when I bought these 2 songs on singles, as a young teenager in the 70s. 😊
Since I watched JOKER cant stop playing this song, shit thats the joke.
me to!
Do you watch _Joker_ every time you work out?
Kansas City Chiefs had it as their touchdown song for years. But after it came the artist liked little kids, they dropped it. Now we do the Beastie Boys.
That part!!!!! On my way to work. First song on my treadmill workout. OmG!!!!!!!
The Office US had this music long back.
Michael Scott >>> Joker 😂
Been listening and loving this since the 70s.... Don't care about Glitter.. This is just a great great tune from my youth
Before Joker brought any of you here, years of watching hockey brought me here.
Pittsburgh Penguins song for years haha
What about the office?
Don't forget basketball. This was the official song of Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls all through the 90s.
Go Birds 🦅
This years nba playoffs
The BEST glam rock single bar none ! Fantastic.
Oh that would be a good competition..it's certainly one of the best but I'd go for Hot Love by T Rex

Me . Part 1 used to be played at baseball games back in the day. 1972 was when it came out.
It was heavily used in the Timelords Doctoring The TARDIS in the 90s(?)

If there's ever a sequel to Joker, they need to play the second part.
A sequel is aleady in development
I don’t think The Joker need a second part, although would be amazing join Ben Affleck as Batman and Joaquin Phoenix as Joker, but Warner Bros. have done a lot of wrong things.
Ben Affleck isn’t even Batman anymore, it’s that guy from Twilight now
They did play the 2nd part. Rock and roll part 1 has actual lyrics part 2 is just grunts which is the more popular version
You mean the first part cus the second part was on joker movie

Was played right before puck drop of double OT VAN VS TOR I believe in 1994
