Yeah, pretty nice, Atkinsgranny -- but too much mascara, and no man should ever move his bum like that! Shocked
 
LOL According to an urban legend widespread here Kiss copied their mascaras from S & M.
 
On the other side, singer Ney Matogrosso (the one with the moving bum) was the first artist as long as I remember that left the closet publicly here - more than 30 years ago!

I do remember briefly thinking this was pretty cool back in the day though (I was 11 years old).


    
Shocked= By Saint Bruford's brazen balls, that's EVEN WORSE!Angry
 
 
I used to sing along: "Billy, don't be a h*m*... and as he started to go, I said Billy give me a bl*w - whoa - whoa..." LOL

I remember it -- though it were best forgotten. I would have been 14, and puking in a sneering, superior fashion. Dead
 
 
Now I can laugh -- thanks!LOL

I was 8 and remember that on Top of the Pops. 
Some of the Glam Rock stuff was good but the Rubettes and Bay City Rollers were yesterday's version of Boyzone and Westlife. 
I always prefered Slade, T-Rex, The Who etc.

I was 7 years old, and I don't think that song ever charted in this country.
 
Correction: it reached #37 in the States.  Not exactly a monster hit.

And just for contrast - a video from the same summer.

I grew up a lot that summer.

Apparently so did Kirshner .
