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

      Kimberleigh Danielle Only bummer I went to all boys Catholic High School im not gonna complain my dad was a football coach so it was free.I grew up in 70s with all that Rock Music, some concerts were not fun because lack of security, then again how do you control 80,000 fans, Even NFL football games were crazy. 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. Kelli is so small 4 beers she drunk. I was worried I never get a girlfriend cause I was only 5'6 tall. Greetings from Buffalo,NY Yes that Buffalo known for horrable winters @ 4 Superbowls loses.
