I was a teenager when this came out, have heard T Rex all my life. Great to see your reaction to quality music. Underrated T Rex track. Better than some of the hits. You clearly have good taste young man.
Absolutely transcendental. The perpetual cosmic motion of birth, death, and rebirth. I'm a fan of both his early folk and later glam rock, but this is peak Bolan for me. A good example of the band's earlier, trippier iteration is Chariots of Silk
Great band but I only really know the hits, Bauhaus do a great version of the T Rex song “Telegram Sam” it could be interesting listening to both versions
the song is also about Reincarnation Bolan was a poet as well he liked the play on words and put music to them that's why some songs don't make sense would love to see your reaction to the other side of Bolan check this out ua-cam.com/video/FAI4O5woDiQ/v-deo.html 🙂
Love Marc forever ❤ this entire album (and the ones immediately before and after) are just magnificent.

The way TV uses strings to replicate guitar fills is astonishing - and Bill is just being Bill (that’s outstanding). If Carlsberg did rock bands 🎸🎸🎸🎸

Bolan was/ is magic ✨️
Playing T Rex with Elvis hanging up in the back! You can"t go wrong kid. Respect.
I first heard this song in the movie Billy Elliott. Amazing movie with a top notch sound track.
Thank you Nick! New sub and greetings from Illinois!
Been a fan for over 50 years listen to more of their songs.
Favorite song of Bowie and Morrissey
nick cave does a great cover. he said it's his all time fav song ever I'm not gonna disagree with that,
Nick you legend, this is such a banger. Ok back to your video
Dandy In the Underworld is a good one of theirs.
Great reaction. I love this whole album. How about Virginia plain by Roxy music?
I love RIP Off from this album, enjoy your reaction videos, thanks
Maybe try Children of the Revolution by T Rex next?
PS. I'm still hoping for Killing of a Flashboy or The Asphalt World by Suede.
For me its just about feeling alienated
You should check out the Morrissey cover of this song.

Love Bolan, some of the lyrics can be wacky but it fits with the persona. Try the song Warlord of the Royal Crocodiles.
Listen to Life's An Elevator it'll blow you away
Thanks...
Still think
the cover of Electric Warrior is up there with the best.
Great song,only slightly marred by over repetitive lyrics and suffocating strings.
