  • HD rip. Lyrics below.
    I saw you out the other night
    I saw somebody hold you tight
    Roxette, I wonder who it could be
    It was so dark I couldn't see
    But I know it wasn't me
    When I tell you it ain't right
    I know you've got to agree
    I followed you into a show
    The band was playing rock'n'roll
    Roxette, I didn't need to seek you out
    The music played so loud
    That I could hear you through the crowd
    You was telling everyone
    About a new guy you'd found
    Roxette I gotta go away
    And leave you for a couple of days
    Roxette, I don't want no more of your tricks
    I'm gonna get some concrete mix
    And fill your back door up with bricks
    And you better be there waiting
    When I get my business fixed

      I was lucky enough to see him in all three incarnations- with Dr Feelgood, with the Solid Senders, and with his own Wilko Johnson outfit. The Feelgood’s gig remains, forty-seven years later, the best live act I have EVER seen.

    Sad that we lost such a huge component in the history of the guitar as an instrument. He pushed boundaries with his unorthodox approach. I met Wilko once, he was incredibly nice. Gave me a firm handshake and wished me luck with my guitar playing career. Didn't have to do that to some random nobody. He was deservedly proud of how many shows he did. He said he'd been playing something like 380 shows a year. That he'd often play 2-3 shows in a day if he could. Even after everything he'd been through, he was still inspired, keen, dedicated and excited about music and performing. It's something I often think about when I'm struggling with inspiration. Anyway, the man had no ego, no celebrity attitude, he wasn't surrounded by bodyguards, Just a genuinely friendly dude who loved playing guitar.. He'll be greatly missed. 🙏✌️

      @@guickdotto4552 @Guick Dotto Just the truth. 😊 Met the odd celebrity at gigs here and there. Not all of them add up to what you think they will. But Wilko was classy. My friend was a much bigger fan than me at the time, we went to see him in Bristol. Fairly small club. Wasn't anyone else back stage. We chatted probably around 45 minutes. Norman watt-Roy wandered in at one point, that's when wilko said 'Hey Norm, these guys are musicians too, tell them how many shows we did last year!' to which Norman corroborated a number around 380. They were just genuine decent guys. Treated us like old friends even though we'd never met. I guess you get some kinship among musicians. But I've brushed by plenty celebs who wouldn't give you the time of day! I imagine plenty stories will start coming out now he's sadly passed.. Don't doubt that my story is not that unique. ✌️

      @fishypaw  Рік тому +1

      I remember my older cousin letting me stay up late, to watch the OGWT. It was a revelation, so much better than Top Of The Pops. I saw Wilko, not sure, about 4 or 5 years ago. He was on top form, and a funny guy that was able to keep the audience engaged. At one point, he was tuning his guitar by ear ... he stops and say "Ach, it's close enough for Rock and Roll." ... which made me laugh, and showed he still had the pub rock ethos. :)
