This was a 1979 promotional video for Cher's roller boogie single "Hell on Wheels," from her Prisoner album. It aired on late-night TV on NBC on a show called The Midnight Special. As awesome as Cher looks and sounds in this video what's even more amazing is the fact that she filmed it with a broken arm. Some of those men in the video are dancers and drag performers from Cher's live shows at the time (you can see them playing Bette Midler and Diana Ross in the concert footage, "Cher in Monte Carlo," here on YT. You might also be able to spot some of the Village People in this Hell on Wheels vid.
So glad this is back and remastered! As a bartender, I've been showing this video at a NYC gay bar for years now, and when it was taken down, I couldn't find a good replacement. People lose their minds over this video - they're like Stefon from Saturday Night Live, "it's got horses, drag queens, leather daddies, Cher on roller skates, chickens, horses, big trucks, cigarettes and Carrot Top." (Their words, not mine.) Thanks for bringing this gem back!
So true! Great story and information! How far back did you start showing it? How did you discover it? Through TH-cam.com? I just figured out from the past couple of years these are all guy being portrayed as gay, lol.
En mi barrio.algunos amigos hacían alarde sus patines, y yo quería que tener también mis patines. Pero, eramos de condición humilde. Solo mi viejita trabajaba. Nunca pudo regalarmelo. En fin. Mi único consuelo fue disfrutar de la música de Cher.
I totally agree with you. She doesn't get half the credit she deserves this was one of the first music videos ever made she was taking it around to talk shows and having them show it and then it was filed away.. I remember I was in high school when I bought this album. I listen to it so much I wore it out .. the cover of this album is epic.. I had it on my wall.. oh to go back to go back to 1979 again.. Great memories..
Dang...sometimes I forget that Cher can really belt em out! She could hang with many of the great R&B, Disco, and Soul singers of that time. She also can hang with a lot of modern dance superstars too. There will never be another like Cher!
Well, the Superstar has been around since she was 18 or 19 years old, despite the fact that she was discouraged by many people because she looked too ethnic with her American Indian looks and most popular celebrities in show business and magazines were blonde back then. in 1969 she was told by the editors of the fashion magazine Vogue that she couldn't be on the cover of the magazine because of her dark looks, yet in 1970 she appeared in the front cover of Vogue with her black raving shiny hair and high cheek bones.
Eric Schnelten: If you grew up in the 80's you certainly didn't see much of Cher's career as a singer as she focused on acting instead back then. Only later (late 80's) she will return to music.
@missdarlene7 I'm 65 years old and I don't know how I missed this Song 😻 until Now 🤠 Love Cher ‼️❤️ Sincerely Darlene an American Girl Who has a thing for drummers ❤️❤️❤️
Omg I’m 21 and discovered her in like 2017 and I saw her live before the pandemic and WHAT A WOMAN. I only listen to like Madonna, Mariah, whitney, Cher, and older artists now 😩
When i hear this song all I can picture is the opening of roller boogie 1979 with linda blair. K love the movie despite critics, but love the sound track!!
This gem as old as I am and I still can't believe I had never seen this before. Not really a Cher fan, but this is a whole era of music in a single video clip.
Perfecta y armónica fusión entre el rock,funk y el sonido discotheque...; ésa marcación rítmica del bajo guitarra es insuperable...,la voz inigualable de la bella Diosa Cher...,los riff de guitarra y toda la canción completamente compacta...,es una auténtica joya de aquella década maravillosa del Roller Boogie y Discotecas.
Reading the comments, I´m in awe that so many people have just discovered this song: here iun Peru it was a hit. Not just the song, but the video too! Not a huge hit, but it grew very quickly in the audience, very logically, because both the song and the vid are just GREAT! I wouldn´t be surprised if it also was very well known in other sout american countries. I bet in Brasil it was big too at the time...
Where has this video gem been hiding? I've watched it eight times in a row so far. I hope it won an award. Holy cow. Everything that is amazing about Cher is showcased here. Who else could have pulled off skating with attitude? The song rocks. Her vocals are tops.
This song was in the cult classic Roller Boogie starring Linda Blair from 1979. I do not know who performed it in the movie but it was not Cher. She handled very well, I quite enjoyed her rendition. If anyone gets a chance to watch the movie I highly recommend it.
Most retro Cher song ever. PLEASE keep these music videos coming with some closed captioning, because I have trouble following along with the lyrics these days.
The two drag queens are Kenny Sacha (Bette) who passed from AIDS in 1992 and JC Gaynor, a Diana Ross lookalike. They performed with Cher in her Caesar's Palace show in 1981. This video and song must have been around the same time.
Boy this one didn't age well. But man, what an awesome video in the days before MTV. Saw it on a UHF channel back in 1979 that used to play videos to buffer time between movies. This one was in their rotation, The Police's "Message In a Bottle", Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights" (the red dress version), Alice Cooper's "How You Gonna See Me Now", Supertramp's "Goodbye Stranger", Gary Numan's "Cars", M "Pop Muzik", David Bowie's "D.J." were all like in constant rotation. There were more but can't remember them right now.
Iconic music video for an iconic song by an iconic artist for an iconic move (Roller Boogie). Seriously, if you have not seen Roller Boogie, you are missing out. Go watch immediately.
Posted just at the right time to satisfy my curiosity! I'd been trying and trying to remember the name of a Cher-on-roller-skates video my b.f. and I saw at the Midnight Sun in San Francisco in what must have been about 1982. When the clip was over, the b.f. turned to me and said in my ear (so I could hear him over the crowd noise) "That was one QUEER video!!" It was this one, of course. And Cher, of course, was and is fabulous.
Thank goodness for TH-cam! This video fell into obscurity over the decades since it wasn’t included on any of Cher’s video collections. I’ve just discovered this now by accident and I’m quite happy I did. It’s fabulous camp!
This video was made in 1979 folks! Yes, 1979! It’s pretty clear that the 80’s, 90’s and 2000’s were just a complete redux of the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s and even became a precursor to those decades! You can totally see these elements emphasized here.
I was 12. I put it blasting on the living room. My father came and shouted at me "What were you thinking? we're trying to sleep here! Go to your room now". I was dancing and twirling. And jumping. Needless to say, I would love to do that now! :)
ja ja... era cuando todos querian ir al colegio ... los sabados y domingos despues de misa pues tenia y tiene un pasadizo bien largo (100 mts) y los curas dejaban patinar a la gente.
Wow! I've heard this song but never seen the video. I think this is the best music video. It perfectly expresses the fantasy and has an explosive visual style that is both over the top and appropriate.
This is one of the best Cher's song, this deserved to be a hit. Prisoner is one of his best albums, from tracks 1 to 8, damn it, why didn't he get the success he deserved. I love Prisoner.
たしか、この曲はカサブランカから出た”ローラー・ブギー”のサントラ盤にあったかと、輸入盤で持っていた思い出が、・・40年ぶりに聴けというか観れてうれしいでござる！！ I remeber The "Roller Boogie" soundtrack album (casablanca U.S). that contains this song that I had about 40 years ago, one of my favorite CHERs song , de gozaru !!
Yep this is Cher in my earlier days I've always been a fan of hers she is a legend she is one of a kind she is Cher took me a while to find this song but thank God I found it reminds me of my earlier days which me and Cher not that old we're still in our prime I Love you Cher a fan forever and always Wanda Smith 👏😇🕊️💖❤️🙏💕
It was moderately successful, but this Cher music video from 1980 was one of the first ones before MTV arrived on the music TV scene in the summer of 1981.
El estilo de Cher no es de mi agrado, pero esta cancion SI,. Con este tema musical es que conoci a Cher , hace 40 años , cuando yo estaba en la escuela secundaria y luego otro tema que me gusta de ella es MIRROR IMAGE, Gracias por publicar, Saludos desde Santiago del Estero, Argentina.
Roller buggy...solo fui a ver esa peli porque linda Blair salía en minifalda y mis amigos de barrio me contaron que al patinar la falda se levantaba...eran otros tiempos... tiempos mejores creo yo
I love this song! I could see this as a 1979 hit (like Take Me Home) if she had just promoted it more on live tv. I’m telling you, promoting songs on live tv helps. It’s part of how other songs like Believe and Strong Enough were so big.
"Holdin' Out For Love". (1979) "Hell on Wheels" is a disco song performed by American singer-actress Cher from her sixteenth studio album, Prisoner. It was written by Bob Esty and Michele Aller and produced by Esty. Guess this was reissued because it was remastered. A good song back then.
This video was played on the Midnight Special a couple times when it was released. The disco backlash had started by then so it was getting tougher to score disco hits at the time. Besides, Cher was really wanting to record more rock. Cher had an agreement with Casablanca that if she recorded disco like they wanted, they would let her do a rock album. Hence, the Black Rose lp which was her 3rd Casablanca album.
@@NOVELBITES Yes! I still follow Billboard Hot 100 (which you can do on TH-cam now). Currently, they use streaming (which includes TH-cam videos), radio & sales to tally the rankings. Streaming does seem the dominant force today, if you analyze Spotify and other streaming services rankings (which feed into Billboard).
I absolutely loved this song when came out! I was a senior in high school so it was around '78-79. Thank you for posting this I haven't seen this video in decades.
@@alexkx8599 yeppers I saw the video. PreMTV videos was just starting we a program called Midnight Special late night at 1130 on Friday that had live acts and would show videos
This is proof that Cher has a vault of unreleased music somewhere. She’ll just drop a song here, a video there, blow our minds and probably get a kick out of it.
Cher did this video with a broken arm. How the hell did she skate so effortlessly? She backwards skated and did spins...such a Roller Mama! If this was me, one of my rollerskate wheels would find a stone on the road, and I'd end up in a body cast.
Bro I was doing joi jury’s with with one arm broken and I still gave people hard time..even more so!!! Y do you think? Cause I got one fucken arm now that’s why!!! Grow some balls!!!!
I swear down I thought this was a new retro kind of song out at the moment from cher and she was just a bit airbrushed for the video, as every artist is doing the disco vibe right now and then I saw comments saying it's from 1979 ! She really is amazing and has an amazing plastic surgeon as she looks fab even now considering I thought this was a new music video x
I almost forgot something! Cher should totally post all her other music videos! Let’s see, looks like she has the music videos for save up all your tears, love and understanding, woman’s world, I hope you find it (lyric video), take it like a man (7th heaven remix), sos, believe, chiquitita (Spanish version), happiness is just a thing called joe, and hell on wheels posted. Hold up, where’s the others?! Song for the lonely, I found someone, half breed, dark lady, turn back time!! Those have got to be posted, right guys??
Update: we have if I could turn back time, I found someone, we all sleep alone, the shoop shoop song, and I got you babe with beavis and butthead. We still need bang bang my baby shot me down, gypsys tramps and thieves, half breed, dark lady, walking in Memphis, one by one, strong enough, All or nothing, dove la more, the musics no good without you, song for the lonely, alive again, you haven’t seen the last of me, and stop crying your heart out. A lot of these r on Cher Fan Clubs channel, but we still need them here. And not as premiers so they get the views they deserve!!!
This video is EVERYTHING 🤩🤩🤩 Cher looks and sounds incredible! What a legend! The only thing that could possibly make this song any better is a remix/update by Carpenter Brut IMHO 🤟🏼😎💖
Roller Boogie!! This is the opening song in that movie from 1979, starring the gorgeous Linda Blair.
I saw that movie before. And yes… Linda Blair was a hottie!!
LET'S ROCK, HELL ON WHEELS, LET'S ROLL...COME ON AND ROCKET WITH ME
i have no idea why this popped up as a suggestion for me, but i'm glad it did.

This is from one of my mom's favorite movies. I grew up listening to this...Just lucky I guess.
I think most of the mid-late 70s Cher catalogue has been under the radar for a long time but thankfully is slowly being rediscovered

This song is so underrated and the video so good for the time it came out! Can’t understand why it wasn’t a top ten hit.
Yep this is Cher in my earlier days I've always been a fan of hers she is a legend she is one of a kind she is Cher took me a while to find this song but thank God I found it reminds me of my earlier days which me and Cher not that old we're still in our prime I Love you Cher a fan forever and always Wanda Smith 👏😇🕊️💖❤️🙏💕
Finally the hidden music video is on the spotlight !!!
This song/video should’ve been a HUGE HIT
"Take Me Home" just before this was. Unfortunately the stupid disco backlash was starting to take off around this time.
It was moderately successful, but this Cher music video from 1980 was one of the first ones before MTV arrived on the music TV scene in the summer of 1981.
I still can't believe I had never seen this before. I am obsessed.
Chér has to be one of coolest women in history! There is nothing she can’t do!
Aesthetics of the late 70´s/early 80´s were so great. And Cher in this bodysuit is the personification of hot.
Cher was, is and will remain super hottttt.
The editing! The hot gays! The outfits! This song! The Cher! This is heaven on wheels.
El estilo de Cher no es de mi agrado, pero esta cancion SI,. Con este tema musical es que conoci a Cher , hace 40 años , cuando yo estaba en la escuela secundaria y luego otro tema que me gusta de ella es MIRROR IMAGE, Gracias por publicar, Saludos desde Santiago del Estero, Argentina.
I’m confused..Where has this video been all of my life? I love it!
Roller buggy...solo fui a ver esa peli porque linda Blair salía en minifalda y mis amigos de barrio me contaron que al patinar la falda se levantaba...eran otros tiempos... tiempos mejores creo yo
I love this song! I could see this as a 1979 hit (like Take Me Home) if she had just promoted it more on live tv. I’m telling you, promoting songs on live tv helps. It’s part of how other songs like Believe and Strong Enough were so big.
"Holdin' Out For Love". (1979) "Hell on Wheels" is a disco song performed by American singer-actress Cher from her sixteenth studio album, Prisoner. It was written by Bob Esty and Michele Aller and produced by Esty. Guess this was reissued because it was remastered. A good song back then.
This video was played on the Midnight Special a couple times when it was released. The disco backlash had started by then so it was getting tougher to score disco hits at the time. Besides, Cher was really wanting to record more rock. Cher had an agreement with Casablanca that if she recorded disco like they wanted, they would let her do a rock album. Hence, the Black Rose lp which was her 3rd Casablanca album.
Of course if social media and streaming existed back then - WoW!
Radio play was an even more important factor. Radio airplay is still an essential for Billboard charting.
@@NOVELBITES Yes! I still follow Billboard Hot 100 (which you can do on TH-cam now). Currently, they use streaming (which includes TH-cam videos), radio & sales to tally the rankings. Streaming does seem the dominant force today, if you analyze Spotify and other streaming services rankings (which feed into Billboard).
Budweiser showing their support much earlier than we remember.
Drag Queens in a 70's Video? Thank You Cher 💚
I absolutely loved this song when came out! I was a senior in high school so it was around '78-79. Thank you for posting this I haven't seen this video in decades.
Are you saying you actually saw it on t.v. somewhere at some point?!
@@alexkx8599 yeppers I saw the video. PreMTV videos was just starting we a program called Midnight Special late night at 1130 on Friday that had live acts and would show videos
Cher in her young good old days .
This is proof that Cher has a vault of unreleased music somewhere. She’ll just drop a song here, a video there, blow our minds and probably get a kick out of it.
Her success lays in her eclectic range of music. From ballad, to rock, to easy listening to torch songs from the Great American Songbook..
And that is a true fact
Cher did this video with a broken arm. How the hell did she skate so effortlessly? She backwards skated and did spins...such a Roller Mama!
If this was me, one of my rollerskate wheels would find a stone on the road, and I'd end up in a body cast.
No doubt! Me too!😅🛼

Proof dummy?
Do you think she looks like that at 75? Most likely a double and green screen used.
@@timbragg4546 The video was produced in 1979. It was just remastered and re-released.
Bro I was doing joi jury’s with with one arm broken and I still gave people hard time..even more so!!!
Y do you think?
Cause I got one fucken arm now that’s why!!!
Grow some balls!!!!
all those men are looking at her thinking, "Gurl, that is some on point Cher drag!"
I swear down I thought this was a new retro kind of song out at the moment from cher and she was just a bit airbrushed for the video, as every artist is doing the disco vibe right now and then I saw comments saying it's from 1979 ! She really is amazing and has an amazing plastic surgeon as she looks fab even now considering I thought this was a new music video x
absolute legend x forever love you cher thank you for inspiring me to be the singer I am today xx
Everybody say "Jaaaaack"
(McFarland)
Perfect song that I didn't know.
Cher is not only not getting old. She's getting Younger.
I almost forgot something! Cher should totally post all her other music videos! Let’s see, looks like she has the music videos for save up all your tears, love and understanding, woman’s world, I hope you find it (lyric video), take it like a man (7th heaven remix), sos, believe, chiquitita (Spanish version), happiness is just a thing called joe, and hell on wheels posted. Hold up, where’s the others?! Song for the lonely, I found someone, half breed, dark lady, turn back time!! Those have got to be posted, right guys??
Update: we have if I could turn back time, I found someone, we all sleep alone, the shoop shoop song, and I got you babe with beavis and butthead. We still need bang bang my baby shot me down, gypsys tramps and thieves, half breed, dark lady, walking in Memphis, one by one, strong enough, All or nothing, dove la more, the musics no good without you, song for the lonely, alive again, you haven’t seen the last of me, and stop crying your heart out. A lot of these r on Cher Fan Clubs channel, but we still need them here. And not as premiers so they get the views they deserve!!!
Cher is hotter than the core of the sun
I still have the vinyl single of this, one 🕜 f my favorites!!! Thank you Cher!!!
I AM YOUR GUIDING STAR...
This video is EVERYTHING 🤩🤩🤩 Cher looks and sounds incredible! What a legend! The only thing that could possibly make this song any better is a remix/update by Carpenter Brut IMHO 🤟🏼😎💖
What a wild time to be alive: (1970's-1980's.)
It was featured in the beginning of the movie "Roller Boogie"
