A couple of years ago Treat Williams (Berger) went to my daughters middle school to talk about veterans. He was on stage and she recognized him from this movie. She screamed out “hair”. He stopped what he was saying and wanted to know who said that. She stood up and he said “if you really saw that movie then what was my characters name?” Berger she replied. He was amazing at she had seen the movie. She was so excited when she came home

My mother, Nada Simić, was the leading star of 'HAIR' in former Yugoslavia, current day Serbia, between 1969-73. She was the opening for each song - for 'Aquarius', they had her in a meditation pose, with flowers in her hair, pouring her heart and soul into each rhythm and beat. We attended the 50th anniversary of the musical last year in May, here in Australia. Not only were we both brought to tears by the phenomenal performance, but I got to experience, for those 2 hours, what a glimpse of life was like half a century ago. I felt a spiritual presence take me over, as I was incredibly moved by the elements of my mother's life and how humanity, as a whole, lived and breathed in harmony throughout that period in history. Greetings from my mother and I in Australia - she still sings to this day and she's almost 70 years old!
The era was transformative. I was but a small child when the first performances hit Broadway - but I remember The Culture Wars (for Equality of all: Men, Women, All-Colors, sexual expressions and configuration, etc.), and how they formed my Gen-X Identity. Some of us have clung to these tenets, and are still fighting to retain what ground was won during those hard-fought battles by those older than we. Pushing 60; and still capable of... "hitting the bricks" - [ahem] for Progress and Tolerance. Never underestimate someone who grew-up fighting repression. Cheers to you and your lovely Mother; and thank her for sharing her gifts with the world; and with you.
the most powerful lyrics of this song "My hair are like Jesus wore it, Hallelujah I adore it. Hallelujah, Mary loved her son. Why don't my mother love me?" ...and i'm not even religious, but this part still hits me.
I agree and this song is a true anthem for the times. When the first long hair in our school finally got his hair cut it made front page news in the local papers,lol.
I'm looking for the original track of the song. Had the 45. I know a remake! Would love to get a copy of the original. Mainly cause it is, even though it's old like myself,so original!✌
I grow up during this hair times. It raised a lot of society conflicts, even family wars. At the end I had about shoulder length hair and was catched by the army. But it growed again and I still have it, at age 66. I have seen about 20 performances of the musical hair in different cities. Sometimes it was really emotionally, I couldn't see the second part completely because I had tears in my eyes. The theatre performances were always different and different from the film, the songs were always the same. Some events were performed in German, most of them in English.
Cheers, 👍 I'm heading towards 68 now and all this (and the following "Jesus Christ Superstar"), and the Vietnam War, was all happening then. 'Hair' and 'Aquarius' were two of my favorite songs in those early days in High School. I remember I and my younger brother had been fighting Dad for a couple of years to be able to grow our hair longer (a la Beatles, and Surfie, Beach Boys, Bee Gees style) but dad adamantly wouldn't have it. Our late Dad (but God bless him) was ex British Military, old school, and quite strict and a bit of a disciplinarian. It had always been, STRICTLY, 'Crew Cut', or 'Short Back and Sides' [like 3" above the ears! 🤣] from first days of Creche and Sunday School, right through into early teens. His set way of tjinking was, if your hair got to the stage of growing over the top of your ears then this suddenly made you a "LONG-HAIRED LOUT"! Hey, my brother and I eventually won out and we were able to wear our hair moderately long after that in the style of the times (actually, I think Mum may have eventually 'had a talk with him' about loosing up a bit on 'the hair' thing 😁🤣) Cheers and God bless.
@cornelius washington Aah; the ability to leap, tall and powerfully, like these dancers: I remember it well. Productions like these helped me to appreciate dance, surfing, and yoga. A well-built body is a joy to experience.

Always, the ‘60’s was my favorite decade. It was those years when I was still growing up and catching up life of the songs, rock, hippies, war, flower power, etc.
Donnie Dacus, the guy with the blonde hair at the beginning of this video played guitar and sang with Chicago for a couple of years. His guitar work can be heard on the top forty hits, "Alive Again" and "No Tell Lover".
That is some pretty gorgeous hair, I wouldn't want to cut it either. I've always liked long hair on men, not sure why. I'm not attracted to other women.
If you look at nature, males of the species are the ones with "elegant plumage" as they say. Hair on a human male is a mating ritual for some. For me personally, it looks like crap, but two of my brothers had beautiful long, straight hair. I envied them terribly.
The scene starting at 2:59 where he's walking down the street and then into a house was shot at east 14th street just off of Ave J in the Midwood section of Brooklyn,I know because I happened to be there that day and watched them film it.Amazing really because I've never seen the film,so I haven't seen this clip til just now.And yet the memory of seeing him walk up that block is so vivid it seems like yesterday even though it was over 35 years ago.I also remember that they had him wave to someone in the window of one of those stores as he was walking past them towards the house,but it appears that they didn't include that in the final cut.
Thanks to your directions, I just found it on Google Earth and you can clearly identify the very place he was walking along and the house he turned into. There's been some changes, but many of the details remaining from the period are still there and can be recognized if you look closely.

One of my favourite movies of all time! Gets me that this was my childhood music yet people stilll get upset over guys with long hair! Crazy! Grow it, love it, like spaghetti!
I remember watching this musical when I was around 5 and it influenced me so much, I grew my hair for three years until it was so long it reached my butt. Eventually it had to be cut and I was so mad about it because these weird hippies in this weird american movie that I didn't even fully understood told me to never cut my hair. In the end I went home from the hairdresser without 40 centimeters of hair. We donated it, so I felt a bit better about it. Memories :))
Milos Forman had a genius for taking plays that had no cohesive plot, but were instead were a lot of random scenes that celebrated an event or a life, (Hair; Amadeus) and giving them a structured story line ."Hair" still had a lot of fantastical scenes, yet the story arc kept building to an inevitable conclusion. While Forman did take a fair bit of artistic license, (no one in command at the army base where Claude Bukowski got his training caught that they were shipping an untrained civilian over to Vietnam in a trained soldier's place?) it was the story arc that kept the movie interesting, though. "Hair" was originally not really a play as much as a stage production featuring a bunch of random songs and dancing that celebrated the iconoclastic spirit of the 1960s. "Amadeus" was the same sort of concept--a play about Wolfgang Mozart's life and his genius musicianship with no real plot, just random and unconnected scenes, until Forman took Peter Shaffer's mediocre, stream-of-consciousness play and turned it into a colorful and dramatic story about a one-sided rivalry that consumed and ultimately twisted the spirit of Mozart's arch rival, Antonio Salieri. Again, Forman took a lot of artistic license, as very little of the plot of the movie "Amadeus" is based on truth, but it made for a very entertaining story with dazzling cinematography (as that in "Hair") and a fine way to showcase the extent of Mozart's unlimited brilliant creativity.
Also, how is Bukowski a free man at the end? He impersonated an officer and deserted an active base, during the actual war. That would be life in prison if he was lucky. Most likely a death penalty. Still, I can suspend my disbelief for this masterpiece.

I believe it is Wilbur Bascomb, who also played on Jeff Beck's Wired album. The greatest achievment of the internet was FINALLY finding out who this bass player was.
Around 0:25 when Woof said "I wouldn't kick Mick Jagger out of my bed" was hilarious. It reminds me of my buddy's man crush on Bob Weir from The Grateful Dead.
I can't listen to this song ]without thinking of my friend Matt.... I miss you due. :( I only wish I could have been there for you and your long hair when you needed it :(
When I saw this movie for the first time, I was a kid. This was one of my top favorite songs from the movie back then, even though it was years away that I would finally grow my hair long.
I know why he doesn't want his hair cut. It takes a long time to grow your hair long. It also takes a ton of care and conditioner to keep your hair looking like that. I wouldn't want my hair cut for the world.
I cut my long hair a month ago, thinking I'd feel better, but I don't. Everyone likes my hair short, but I told them it is just not me, I need my long hair, it is part of me and there is no changing that, so I'm just glad my hair grows quick.
XtremeKaiba Hair is an extension of the nervous system, and it absorbs vitamin D from the sun, which affects mood. It's called the sunshine vitamin. I did some research after some dumb woman on the internet claimed that women with long hair were "mentally ill". All these armchair psychiatrists these days, honestly. People with long hair are more sensitive and intuitive. Doesn't sound like a bad thing. Mine is about down to my waist now, I wonder how long it will get if I never cut it. I've never tried before.
As a girl army brat I have a sever hair fetish , my hubby has hair to his waist. I refuse to let him cut it I LOOOOOOOOOVE HAIR. !! Nothing sexier than a man owning his long hair.
This is why to this day my hair is long, down to my butt!! Donnie Dacus was so hot and still looks good. I will die with long hair or wearing a long haired wig. My hair is part of my life. Kinda like Sampson!! I love guys with long hair, too. Call it a weakness!! I was all wrapped up in the 80's with the rockers and their hair. I love my long hair!!
When it was first performed, both in the US and the UK, the musical “Hair” was extremely controversial. In fact, the production was deliberately provocative, blatantly intended to shock spectators with its frank depiction of drug use, nudity and sexuality, and with its gleeful use of obscene language. Like the rest of the score, the title song was created by lyricists James Rado & Gerome Ragni and music composer Galt MacDermot. In essence, “Hair” is an ode to long hair, at a time when men had just started to wear it long, during the HIPPIE ERA, which is what the show is all about. This is performed by Claude, Berger and the so-called Tribe. It goes without saying that “Hair” is not to be confused with Lady Gaga’s piece of the same name; Gaga was born in 1986❕ 💙🎵💜
This song and movie are iconic in my opinion. It makes so many statements about being free from the normal life that is expected of us to live. People have a freedom of choice from the day they are born and taken away when we get older. I just enjoyed growing up in the 60's and 70's it was just a great era of freedom of expression and now there is too much political correctness it is just ridiculous. All our rights are being taken away by the country and states we live in it is just totally ridiculous. It's time to go back and get ourselves free from all the BS.
you are soooo right and I am forever gratefull to have been born early, living through those fantastic 60-70ies. The last years of untroubled, easygoing and careless lifes. It was great.
Men love them some young Mick Jagger. Don't forget The Cowsills version of "Hair", which was my introduction to this song. If prison were only this much fun!
What can I say about the movie and this song ? I SIMPLY LOVE IT ! Ah , and I liked the MINIONS version of it , too ! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha , those silly little yellow bugs !
I've got bald, but my son's "just a hairy guy". I love him. And I say: "You can grow your hair down to your ankle, I'll bless you". And yeah, he loves this song.
Bruce Wayne Campbell (December 14, 1946 - August 3, 1983), known by his stage name Jobriath, was an American rock musician and actor. He was the first openly gay rock musician to be signed to a major record label, and one of the first internationally famous musicians to die of AIDS.
University, Department of English Language and Literature, second semester. Task: describe a person. Teacher: "Collect adjectives for a person's hair." Our goup: "Hey, who remembers that song in 'Hair'?"
I wish we could be so honest today about the length and volume of hair in the various regions of our bodies. But also happy not to have that many songs about it.
there's a reason for c that. While Hair is one of my top 10 favorite musicals (I've worked in live theater for almost 20 years) this was probably one of the worst translations from stage to film. While there are a few wonderful moments...(Black Boys, White Boys, I've Got Life when Charlotte Ray wants to tap Treats ass) the casting of Beverly D'Angelo was a huge faux pas in my opinion.
I first heard it as a cover by a hard rock/metal group called Stetna (this was a band put together by metal guitar author/shredder Troy Stetina) on their album Set The World On Fire. They performed a more metal version with a very 90's sound. I thought it was incredibly catchy and fun to listen to. The original is awesome though. I remember being in my twenties and thirties and doing everything in my power to maintain my long hair. Upon reaching 40, it was time to say goodbye to it as you can see in my picture.
My hair reached the middle of my back in the mid-'70s, but then, I was in a rock band. I remember my uncle saying "You need a haircut!" - of course, I had to respond, "No on NEEDS a haircut."
when i was just a wee lad, the big men, with the power, came to the homestead. The baby was crying,the turkey was roastin. im not braggin im not boastin my locks of love were supah ferocious. one day i wa susein all of these lotions. and like a potion thats lost in the ocean. my hair was gone. ihave tb and can not grow my hair again. i cry every day.
The hair style and blond color as well as the actor's face remind me of singer Brian Connelly, the lead singer of the British glam band Sweet of Fox On The Run, Little Willy and Ballroom Blitz fame. Anyone else?
Same hair style. The page boy. Was a popular hairstyle choice. I lived back then and lots of people had that style. It's not weird or uncommon. Just like mullets of the eighties. 🙄
I watched this film for the first time 3 months ago, and this scene made me snort tea out of my nostrils - I can't stop watching it! Anyone else wish they were that lady psychiatrist, with Donnie Dacus giving them ' blue steel ' across the table?

Very cool. I just looked it up myself using your provided location. Sure enough, there it is. Well done.
One of my favourite movies of all time! Gets me that this was my childhood music yet people stilll get upset over guys with long hair! Crazy! Grow it, love it, like spaghetti!
I remember watching this musical when I was around 5 and it influenced me so much, I grew my hair for three years until it was so long it reached my butt. Eventually it had to be cut and I was so mad about it because these weird hippies in this weird american movie that I didn't even fully understood told me to never cut my hair. In the end I went home from the hairdresser without 40 centimeters of hair. We donated it, so I felt a bit better about it. Memories :))
Loved this movie since I was a kid and I still love it. Great music, great idea, well done. I miss moves like this.
Treat Williams! You will be missed! 😢😢1951-2023
Milos Forman had a genius for taking plays that had no cohesive plot, but were instead were a lot of random scenes that celebrated an event or a life, (Hair; Amadeus) and giving them a structured story line ."Hair" still had a lot of fantastical scenes, yet the story arc kept building to an inevitable conclusion. While Forman did take a fair bit of artistic license, (no one in command at the army base where Claude Bukowski got his training caught that they were shipping an untrained civilian over to Vietnam in a trained soldier's place?) it was the story arc that kept the movie interesting, though.
"Hair" was originally not really a play as much as a stage production featuring a bunch of random songs and dancing that celebrated the iconoclastic spirit of the 1960s.
"Amadeus" was the same sort of concept--a play about Wolfgang Mozart's life and his genius musicianship with no real plot, just random and unconnected scenes, until Forman took Peter Shaffer's mediocre, stream-of-consciousness play and turned it into a colorful and dramatic story about a one-sided rivalry that consumed and ultimately twisted the spirit of Mozart's arch rival, Antonio Salieri. Again, Forman took a lot of artistic license, as very little of the plot of the movie "Amadeus" is based on truth, but it made for a very entertaining story with dazzling cinematography (as that in "Hair") and a fine way to showcase the extent of Mozart's unlimited brilliant creativity.
Also, how is Bukowski a free man at the end? He impersonated an officer and deserted an active base, during the actual war. That would be life in prison if he was lucky. Most likely a death penalty. Still, I can suspend my disbelief for this masterpiece.
0:39 - She asks me why
I'm just a hairy guy
I'm hairy noon and night
Hell that's a fright
I'm hairy high and low
Don't ask me why
Don't know
It's not for lack of bread
Like the Grateful Dead
Darling
1:20 - Gimme head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming,
Streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there mama
Everywhere daddy daddy
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
Let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
A home for fleas
A hive for bees
A nest for birds
There ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder
Of my...
Hair, hair *(x5)*
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy
Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!
Oh say can you see
My eyes if you can
Then my hair's too short
Down to here
Down to there
I want hair
Down to where
It stops by itself
They'll be ga ga at the go go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined
Biblical hair
My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah I adore it
Hallelujah Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair *(x5)*
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
Hair, hair *(x5)*
Greatest bass player of all time!!!
I believe it is Wilbur Bascomb, who also played on Jeff Beck's Wired album. The greatest achievment of the internet was FINALLY finding out who this bass player was.
@@ratscabiesTHANK YOU!! Always wondered who this incredible bassist was ❤
I love how the guy trying to cut his hair is just standing there like "boi if you don't calm tf down"
Let's hear it for the funkiest bass player ever keepin down the groove on this cool song-yeah!!!!!
Miss you gma :/ …… she showed me this movie love it still to this day and the last song no mader how many times i watch it makes me cry like a baby
Around 0:25 when Woof said "I wouldn't kick Mick Jagger out of my bed" was hilarious. It reminds me of my buddy's man crush on Bob Weir from The Grateful Dead.
I can't listen to this song ]without thinking of my friend Matt.... I miss you due. :( I only wish I could have been there for you and your long hair when you needed it :(
R.I.P Treat Williams :( December 1, 1951 - June 12, 2023
Gone too soon
❤❤❤❤❤😢
He was always the coolest one to me, and I always lowkey wanted to have his hair. It’s so silky and pretty 😩
Love my long hair, it acts like a blanket when I don't wanna see the world, also love long hair on men....
Nie mam ani jednego włoska na całej mnie. Jednak ten utwór jest jednym z moich ulubionych. Pasja miłość. To coś co nas określa
Ani... jednego??? :O
@@Falaxuper Pewnie ma dwa, ale nie mówi.
We could use more peace & love in the world right now!
YUP! If only ...
When I saw this movie for the first time, I was a kid. This was one of my top favorite songs from the movie back then, even though it was years away that I would finally grow my hair long.
That is one AWESOME bassline.
an absolutely wild bassline that no one knows about. it's mixed way more aggressively in the movie version than the sound track as well
Fr fr
This movie made me fall in love :)
Hallelujah I adore it! Must dance to this song .)
One of the best out of the 60’s
I know why he doesn't want his hair cut. It takes a long time to grow your hair long. It also takes a ton of care and conditioner to keep your hair looking like that. I wouldn't want my hair cut for the world.
Every day, I sing this song! No matter what, I have my hair baby!
I cut my long hair a month ago, thinking I'd feel better, but I don't. Everyone likes my hair short, but I told them it is just not me, I need my long hair, it is part of me and there is no changing that, so I'm just glad my hair grows quick.
XtremeKaiba Hair is an extension of the nervous system, and it absorbs vitamin D from the sun, which affects mood. It's called the sunshine vitamin. I did some research after some dumb woman on the internet claimed that women with long hair were "mentally ill". All these armchair psychiatrists these days, honestly. People with long hair are more sensitive and intuitive. Doesn't sound like a bad thing. Mine is about down to my waist now, I wonder how long it will get if I never cut it. I've never tried before.
I feel ya
X, hey, ya gave it a whirl, and that is what i respect about a person. Yes, do You. Be happy, Baby. ✌🤙💗
@phantagirlable it got to my rear and I was fighting with it. So I just chopped off 23 inches a few days ago. Still past my shoulders
The bass on this song is amazing. Wilbur Bascomb. Few have ever heard of him.
As a girl army brat I have a sever hair fetish , my hubby has hair to his waist. I refuse to let him cut it I LOOOOOOOOOVE HAIR. !! Nothing sexier than a man owning his long hair.
RIP Treat Williams. He was great in this scene.
My grandma performed this song at a nursing home talent show in 1993. As a young lad, I was just as speechless as you are now.
The best song of that movie
This is why to this day my hair is long, down to my butt!! Donnie Dacus was so hot and still looks good. I will die with long hair or wearing a long haired wig. My hair is part of my life. Kinda like Sampson!! I love guys with long hair, too. Call it a weakness!! I was all wrapped up in the 80's with the rockers and their hair. I love my long hair!!
Awesome. I liked the movie more than I thought I would.
Harmonies on point
Beautiful
Why wouldn't you want long hair? It's majestic as fuck and that feeling when you let it loose and start headbanging is simply indescribable.
🤘💖
The only reason I have short hair is that I get extremely dysphoric with long hair.(I'm transmasc)
When it was first performed, both in the US and the UK, the musical “Hair” was extremely controversial. In fact, the production was deliberately provocative, blatantly intended to shock spectators with its frank depiction of drug use, nudity and sexuality, and with its gleeful use of obscene language.
Like the rest of the score, the title song was created by lyricists James Rado & Gerome Ragni and music composer Galt MacDermot.
In essence, “Hair” is an ode to long hair, at a time when men had just started to wear it long, during the HIPPIE ERA, which is what the show is all about. This is performed by Claude, Berger and the so-called Tribe.
It goes without saying that “Hair” is not to be confused with Lady Gaga’s piece of the same name; Gaga was born in 1986❕ 💙🎵💜
This movie influenced me so much as a kid but looking back on it its really male dominant.
This song and movie are iconic in my opinion. It makes so many statements about being free from the normal life that is expected of us to live. People have a freedom of choice from the day they are born and taken away when we get older. I just enjoyed growing up in the 60's and 70's it was just a great era of freedom of expression and now there is too much political correctness it is just ridiculous. All our rights are being taken away by the country and states we live in it is just totally ridiculous. It's time to go back and get ourselves free from all the BS.
Remember 'The Lessons': Civil Disobedience is in our D.N.A.. (Hell; they might break a hip; but there are more of us than them.)
you are soooo right and I am forever gratefull to have been born early, living through those fantastic 60-70ies.
The last years of untroubled, easygoing and careless lifes. It was great.
Men love them some young Mick Jagger.
Don't forget The Cowsills version of "Hair", which was my introduction to this song.
If prison were only this much fun!
The bass is KILLER.
Please, show this movie to your kids. Please don’t forgot this beauty. Sayes girl with no hair btw :-)
What can I say about the movie and this song ? I SIMPLY LOVE IT ! Ah , and I liked the MINIONS version of it , too ! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha , those silly little yellow bugs !
Fuck the minions. Cheap colour-by-numbers entertainment for the feeble minded.
I remember my uncle singing this song to a crowd, oh the memories
My favorite part is "Oh say can you see,my eyes if you can then my hair's too short."
I used to dance to this song and made a special routine for this one especially!!!
Fun fact this is the song stuart from minions used while hypnotizing the 3 guards
Great musical!!
I've got bald, but my son's "just a hairy guy". I love him. And I say: "You can grow your hair down to your ankle, I'll bless you". And yeah, he loves this song.
Brasil ama esse movimento...sou PUNK mas respeito a história...
Ah! Best song! and ah, look at the beautiful donnie's cute smile :(
This song is well composed. Es fetzt würde man sagen.
My generation, we were certainly hair obsessed!
One of the greatest movies ever!!!
I can't recall where I saw this first. The first half of 1979 I spent on Ft. Benning, GA, and the other half I was in South Korea.
Perfect Musical!
Bruce Wayne Campbell (December 14, 1946 - August 3, 1983), known by his stage name Jobriath, was an American rock musician and actor. He was the first openly gay rock musician to be signed to a major record label, and one of the first internationally famous musicians to die of AIDS.
Best Muvis ever ❤️ ♥️ ❤❤❤❤
My favourite movie
I know you are so proud of her!! What an amazing story! To get to be such a beautiful part of history is amazing! :)
University, Department of English Language and Literature, second semester. Task: describe a person. Teacher: "Collect adjectives for a person's hair." Our goup: "Hey, who remembers that song in 'Hair'?"
Oh and Treat Williams really lived up to his name with his performance in Hair!
Obozavam ovaj film, muziku. Odlicno.
I love my long beautiful hair!!! I will never ever cut my long beautiful hair. ^_^
I wish we could be so honest today about the length and volume of hair in the various regions of our bodies. But also happy not to have that many songs about it.
They don't make movies like this anymore
there's a reason for c that. While Hair is one of my top 10 favorite musicals (I've worked in live theater for almost 20 years) this was probably one of the worst translations from stage to film. While there are a few wonderful moments...(Black Boys, White Boys, I've Got Life when Charlotte Ray wants to tap Treats ass) the casting of Beverly D'Angelo was a huge faux pas in my opinion.
In my opinion the 70's was the most revolutionary period of film making, and that's coming from someone that wasn't even born at that time
Because There are not Czechs in Hollywood. Same with games.
yeah, welcome to Hitler's America
because Milos is gone :(
I love this song
Adoro qse todas as músicas desse filme !
One of the best and the first musical made for tv. And where the lead actor switched in middle.
That bass line. Holy smokes!
Fantastic musical
And every kid who wanted to grow up to form an 80s metal band immediately said "Fuck yes".
i am 63 and i still have my long hair , groovy man
I first heard it as a cover by a hard rock/metal group called Stetna (this was a band put together by metal guitar author/shredder Troy Stetina) on their album Set The World On Fire. They performed a more metal version with a very 90's sound. I thought it was incredibly catchy and fun to listen to.
The original is awesome though.
I remember being in my twenties and thirties and doing everything in my power to maintain my long hair. Upon reaching 40, it was time to say goodbye to it as you can see in my picture.
My hair reached the middle of my back in the mid-'70s, but then, I was in a rock band. I remember my uncle saying "You need a haircut!" - of course, I had to respond, "No on NEEDS a haircut."
when i was just a wee lad, the big men, with the power, came to the homestead. The baby was crying,the turkey was roastin. im not braggin im not boastin my locks of love were supah ferocious. one day i wa susein all of these lotions. and like a potion thats lost in the ocean. my hair was gone. ihave tb and can not grow my hair again. i cry every day.
I know I am too late to commenting on this video but those who don't know, at 2:05 thats Cleon from the Warriors
The hair style and blond color as well as the actor's face remind me of singer Brian Connelly, the lead singer of the British glam band Sweet of Fox On The Run, Little Willy and Ballroom Blitz fame. Anyone else?
Same hair style. The page boy. Was a popular hairstyle choice. I lived back then and lots of people had that style. It's not weird or uncommon. Just like mullets of the eighties. 🙄
Omg you’re so right
I watched this film for the first time 3 months ago, and this scene made me snort tea out of my nostrils - I can't stop watching it! Anyone else wish they were that lady psychiatrist, with Donnie Dacus giving them ' blue steel ' across the table?
Mom introduced me to Treat Williams through this movie, RIP.
What a great song
This song is going to be my theme song if the barbershop doesn't open up soon due to the Coronavirus
