Back in the 70's, I really liked this song, but all my friends liked hard rock bands so I never admitted I liked it. Years later I can finally play this song and I don't care who knows!
Mierpaul there are many songs, artists, like them Manilow, Carpenters. All great music. I know exactly what you mean. But the fact they all had multiple platinum records means those friends were listening too. And I knew they did. So I played the records at home. And those same people who switched stations in public didnt mind hearing it my apartment. By the way "I only want to be with you" was a big favorite and big hit as well. I will never deny it. Still have the album's. Awesome 70s.
RIP Les,Ian an Alan...BCR was one of my very first record albums,Les was one of my first rock star crushes!!We would blast SATURDAY NIGHT over and over as kids!!Still listen to them to this day!Makes me sad such an important part of my childhood has passed,and the struggles the BCR went thru as a band.Thankful for the great tunes they left us,thanks guys🎶❤#ForeverRollerGirl
Talk about a trip down memory lane! I was driving through a beautiful forest preserve this morning, the sun shining bright. This came on and I flashed back to those easier, simpler times, filled with golden moments. I hadn't heard this in years, and I was in junior high again, dreaming of all the wonderful things life was showing me.Wonderful song, wonderful times. I yearn for times like these again. Cheers to everyone out there!
I understand completely what you mean. What fantastic memories. I shared my love for the music past with my daughters growing up. Now they and my grandkids have an awesome appreciation for great music.
Absolutely how I feel when I hear this song! I remember my family being at the beach in SC when this song was popular, and the radio station played it often! My friend and I went to the little t shirt store and there was a BCR shirt! I bought one and wore it until it just disintegrated! Love my Rollers!
April 20th , 1 year has gone by without Les in this world. Forever in our hearts, your music never dies. Your sweet voice will always be heard by all who loved you. Rip dear Leslie ♥️
So missing this wonderful group thank you for making my life a lot happier. Be though so hard times but I love this group so much help me though loss a wonderful friend we all rollers together. Rest in peace my friend peta we had wonderful times together thanks for wonderful memories rollers 😍😍👍👍💕💕
In the US this tune was their last top 10 single during the summer of 1977. Upon its' release I thought it was a departure from what they had previously been doing...and it WAS. The bombastic, layered sound of their productions was seemingly given the "activate-the-mirrored-disco-ball" treatment so to speak. It could've been seen as maybe a way to show they had a maturity about them and weren't a teenybopper band...who knows?? No matter--great tune in my opinion & not one to be ashamed of liking
This was their best song ever. It proved that they could play rock & roll and not just prefabricated bubble-gum pop. I also like their song... The Way I Feel Tonight.
Kathy Booth I know how you feel ! I saw them when I was 10 and cried the whole way through the concert. Goodness it was just so emotional !! Girls were fainting all over the place and the st Johns ambulance people were running about with stretchers all evening. Some 30 years later I saw Leslie in concert but this time I managed to give him a little peck on the cheek - felt just like being 10 again. Poor Leslie, he must think woman are all nuts.
Lisa, I only want to be with you was a favorite too. I remember them on TV. My then girlfriend was crazy about them as were her friends and my younger sister. I still have the as albums. The girls all loved them.
Yep, now I'm almost 54. Eric still has the best eyes. Almost like Paul McCartney, who rocks...But Mr Faulkner also has some skills. Still, much as I try to be grown up and adult about it......Shit fuzzy, Eric was hot.
Lisa my sister and all her teenage girlfriends loved them. I was still a teen as well. My girlfriend and I both had records of theirs. Still have them, but some are "scratched"my sister and her friend did it.
I was 13 when I heard "Saturday night" then I fell in love with them .I still listen to them. I am 55. never to old to listen to the " BAY CITY ROLLERS". I love Eric and Leslie 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I did get to see them, but still love hearing these. I too am glad to see lots of our doll's smile. it is a real treat! My best to all!! Trish in Denver, CO
I remember 1977. This song was really popular with good reason. It's a great song. These guys had more talent then people realized. The original boy band but with more natural talent.
This is probably my favorite song of BCR. When I went to see them in concert when I was in 6th grade some person had me on there shoulders the whole concert cause everyone was older. I think I thought it was a women but it was maybe man. My favorite new plaid shirt had the buttons missing on it due to the girls were pushing and shoving so much. I loved them so much. Yea rob91368, I remember how my dad loved that Grenada as we drove it to a family vacation to Lake Erie. Weird, good old days.
It's simple, they where not like any other group nor were they trying to be. They had there own sound and thats a great thing to have .I was a 16 year old guy when they came to our town (MELBOURNE-AUST)all the girls loved them so my idea was simple i too would listen to them it was good way to meet all the young girls worked a treat .I soon found there songs to have more depth then they were given credit for .Still like them today and this one is my favorite.
Boy, this really brings back memories! I can still feel the Roller 'magic' -- the excitement that I felt back then. I always knew they were a really good band. This makes me realize just how good they really were [and are, I'm sure] as musicians. Of course, back then I was too busy swooning over Les to really notice the music that closely! :)
OMG! I love this song just like yesterday! I saw them in concert during this tour of the US, when it was just 4 of them. I LOVED LES!!! It's all coming back to me! Please post more Videos, I'll be checking back often! :)
I only saw it with the lower part of my vision, because my eyes were on a higher level of the stage. My eyes never left Derek. It drove the audience wild though, that's why I noticed it. My sister and I were in the "nosebleed section" so we had a fair view of the stage.
All the girls loved Les, so my friend Aileen and I decided that I would like Eric and she would like Woody. We had the fan club and would hang out in our rooms playing their albums over and over while look at teen magazines and cutting out pictures of our favorites. Fun to remember. I still have the scrapbook. lol
@Victor1970s Sad because the 'Strangers in the Wind' album proved to be their critical best with such songs as the title track, Another Rainy Day in NYC and Back on the Street! Their albums with Duncan were awsome rock epics too!
keom.fm has kept the faith on this one for years. I have the album It's a Game which was not much of a success; but this song from that album was the unexpected surprise has long stood the test of time.
I've been wondering for YEARS!! what the name of this song was. I remember it from Summer Camp in Boxford, Mass =) it used to play on the radio on our way up from Boston (sigh) those flippin memories (sniff, sniff)
Until Corona struck Les McKeowan the singer performs regularly with his Rollers. Eric Faulkner does his own acoustic songs and has an annual weekend in Scotland. I hired Eric once.
I was a such a huge fan in the late 70's to early 80's that I decorated my entire bedroom in tartan plaid! I had such a huge crush on Leslie McKeown as well! My first boyfriend resembled him very much as well, lol.
レスリーの声が良いです👍️
小学生の時に姉の影響でBCRを聴いていたけど、この曲好き🎵レスリー😢ご冥福をお祈りします。
ありがとう😊レスリーは、永遠だね。
大好きでした。
レスリーさんの御冥福を祈ります。
ありがとうございました。
哀愁感があるこの曲も、B.C.Rの違う一面が感じられて、好きでした😎
BCRの中でも好きな曲の1つなので聴けて本当に嬉しかったです。
ありがとうございました😂
In my humble opinion this is the best Bay City Rollers song.
I totally agree, its a top song
No doubt!
Agree, my teenage girlfriend loved these guys. Memories for me. I married that girl then years later lost her. Bittersweet song for me.
Eric wrote this.
Yeah cracking tune. So underated
Back in the 70's, I really liked this song, but all my friends liked hard rock bands so I never admitted I liked it. Years later I can finally play this song and I don't care who knows!

I listen to classic rock and country but I still love the bay city rollers ! Keep on rolling ,
My older brother told me I would get laughed out of college if I listened to BCR there. Well guess what - I Didn't!
Great attitude Mierpaul...
Agree ! 👍

何十年経ってもまた聴きたくなるBCRでTH-camでみんなのコメント見たらレスリー他が亡くなっていたとは⁉️今は毎日聴いてます。
Absolutely LOVED this song when it first came out. Such an underrated gourp, IMO.
April 20th , 1 year has gone by without Les in this world. Forever in our hearts, your music never dies. Your sweet voice will always be heard by all who loved you. Rip dear Leslie ♥️
One of the best hits in the late 70's
The best song!!!!!! So sad ,Les passed ...
1977年(昭和52年)秋、
中学校3年の運動会が終わった頃を思い出しますね、私もぎんざNOWでよくこのPVが流れてたのを覚えてます。
This has to be the "best" Bay City Rollers song out there!!!
yes
So missing this wonderful group thank you for making my life a lot happier. Be though so hard times but I love this group so much help me though loss a wonderful friend we all rollers together. Rest in peace my friend peta we had wonderful times together thanks for wonderful memories rollers 😍😍👍👍💕💕
ホントいい曲。ギターソロも何気にいいよな。
大好きな曲です。レスリー美しい人。ありがとう。
当時、中1でしたが憧れましたね～♪レスリーがカッコ良くて☺️
懐かしい！！わたしも小学6年から好きでした。タータンチェックのマフラーや、スカートを身に纏いましたね…。レスリ－の裸体が、子供の私にはドキドキものでした！！

Les has an incredibly melodic voice. Amazing song.
青春でした。当時小学校五年生ぐらいやったかな。とても思い入れあります。学年でＢＣＲ聴いてる子、２、３人しか居らへんかったな～。放課後延々、音楽室で、ＢＣＲの真似して遊んでた～。
エアチェック(死語)、八木ちゃん、チャッピー懐かしい。
wow
懐かしい言葉が並んでますね(^^ 俺も当時小学生だったな。
姉の影響で聴き始め、レコードもいっぱいありました。
この曲は大好きな曲でしたよ。
八木ちゃんは、たしか八木誠さんでしたっけ？
姉がよくラジオを聴いてました。ニッポン放送だったか文化放送だったかの番組でしたよね？ ＢＣＲと言えば八木ちゃん。
来日公演のテレビ番組も見たな～ たしか「イッツ ア ゲーム」が１曲目だった。
めっちゃ懐かしい。
Iove this song. Classic song. Great band and great memories.
ぎんざNOW!で見てました。当時小学６年生洋楽にハマるきっかけになった曲です。
レスリー格好良かったな。
This was their best song ever. It proved that they could play rock & roll and not just prefabricated bubble-gum pop. I also like their song... The Way I Feel Tonight.
Sad to hear this song and see Alan Longmuir has passed. God Bless Him
Awh Man, I love this song. Les has a great voice. Good stuff.
how hard it must be to watch yourself as a young rising star, go from the plenty to the ripped off, i have lots of respect for this band.
He's hot
Great band. Their legacy lives on. 🍀
Eric was my true love, for a very young teenager! I'm 52 now, and he's still the best of the lot!
im almost 52 , Leslie Mckeown was and is very special to me.
Omg I am 52 as well and Eric was my hands down favorite I just loved him so cute
Kathy Booth
I know how you feel !
I saw them when I was 10 and cried the whole way through the concert. Goodness it was just so emotional !! Girls were fainting all over the place and the st Johns ambulance people were running about with stretchers all evening. Some 30 years later I saw Leslie in concert but this time I managed to give him a little peck on the cheek - felt just like being 10 again. Poor Leslie, he must think woman are all nuts.
I was in love with Eric when I was 13-16, totally obsessed!
Lisa, I only want to be with you was a favorite too. I remember them on TV. My then girlfriend was crazy about them as were her friends and my younger sister. I still have the as albums. The girls all loved them.
懐かしいな 今から４０年ぐらい前だね 中学２年生でしたクラスの女の子は皆大騒ぎでした
English
French
I so Love this song...I remember watching their show on Saturday mornings when I was a kid.
Yep, now I'm almost 54. Eric still has the best eyes. Almost like Paul McCartney, who rocks...But Mr Faulkner also has some skills. Still, much as I try to be grown up and adult about it......Shit fuzzy, Eric was hot.
Still hot....
Lisa my sister and all her teenage girlfriends loved them. I was still a teen as well. My girlfriend and I both had records of theirs. Still have them, but some are "scratched"my sister and her friend did it.

My favorite Roller song!!
Classic fusion of Pop & Disco back in the day...Great Video!!
I remember 1977. This song was really popular with good reason. It's a great song. These guys had more talent then people realized. The original boy band but with more natural talent.

Love this video and song! Woody's my forever fave and he looks so gorgeous here!!
I agree Woody all the way....
i think that the bay city rollers were the best pop group ever s
I agree!
Boy, this really brings back memories! I can still feel the Roller 'magic' -- the excitement that I felt back then. I always knew they were a really good band. This makes me realize just how good they really were [and are, I'm sure] as musicians. Of course, back then I was too busy swooning over Les to really notice the music that closely! :)
Great oldie actually my first band I fell in love with at age twelve .
Yes I purchased this as an 8 Track (Its' a Game Album) just for this track. Gotta love 1977!!!
One of my favorite songs of the 70s, thank you so much for sharing this!
彼らの初来日武道館行きました。１６歳でまわりはほぼ女性😮レスリーの格好良さに憧れ、パーマをかけたらクルクルに!この曲は一番好きです。都会っぽくて、レスリーの甘い声。フォーエバー🎉
Sad to hear of the death of Alan Longmuir. #RIPAlan Love this song. xx
Great song. Sings it well. Great guitar solo too.
I saw them in Anaheim, CA that year. Missed this song that night though, because my older sister and I were late. I always liked this one.
I love their music, it will never end. I love this 1 too
OMG! I love this song just like yesterday! I saw them in concert during this tour of the US, when it was just 4 of them. I LOVED LES!!! It's all coming back to me! Please post more Videos, I'll be checking back often! :)
懐かしい、、当時はクイーン＝本格派、ＢＣＲ＝子供向けって
言われていたけど、たのしかった。
The BCRs hit #10 in Billboard, 8-13-77. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

どんな時にも必ず盛り上る🎵

Why can you not press a button and remain at the happiest time of your life ? I was so in love with Eric ❤
Thanks for the post. I haven't seen this since I was 8 yrs old and that was a looooong time ago!
Great song. Probably the last great song the Rollers made with Les. cheers Sticky
Eric just rips a face melting solo.Shredder alert!!!!
Excellent video and fantastic song.
This song was in the top 10 in the world charts in 1977
RIP Les!
When music was REAL!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome memories!
geez i haven't heard this song since the late '70s - i swear i had this on 45
keom.fm has kept the faith on this one for years. I have the album It's a Game which was not much of a success; but this song from that album was the unexpected surprise has long stood the test of time.
Ah I loved these guys so much as a tween
Nice solo from Eric.
My favorite from them
i like to see Eric solo quitar he's look great
and Woody too
Good Song...best they did!...Thanks!
I've been wondering for YEARS!! what the name of this song was. I remember it from Summer Camp in Boxford, Mass =) it used to play on the radio on our way up from Boston (sigh) those flippin memories (sniff, sniff)
Good wishes always
Until Corona struck Les McKeowan the singer performs regularly with his Rollers. Eric Faulkner does his own
acoustic songs and has an annual weekend in Scotland. I hired Eric once.
Wooww love this video excellent . Thanks for sharing BCR Forever.
Yeah..this song was so cool to me back in the day..there best hit no doubt.
I was a such a huge fan in the late 70's to early 80's that I decorated my entire bedroom in tartan plaid! I had such a huge crush on Leslie McKeown as well! My first boyfriend resembled him very much as well, lol.
Eric you are still the love of my life I would love to meet you some day !
