The reason the first chorus says "i don't like cricket oh no, i love it" is because at the time the West Indies were the World Champion Cricket team... their fast bowlers were 6'5" plus and bowled the ball at speeds of 150 kms per hour, they were f**in' scary intimidating!
If you look back at the histories of these guys, you'll find that every one of them was a very accomplished musician before 10cc. Gouldman wrote some of the biggest hits of the 60's, particularly for the Yardbirds.
Graham Gouldman said he was holidaying in Jamaica and while out walking cut between a group of young men engaged in conversation, one of them yelled 'Don't you walk through my words, show some respect', and that's where the idea for the song came from.
Rubber Bullets, The Worst Band in the World, Lazy Days, How Dare You? and Art For Art's Sake are all great tracks and show how 10cc has many varied styles.
While I won't say I'm a huge 10cc fan or anything, they're criminally underrepresented on reaction channels, not counting their song, 'I'm Not In Love'. 'Dreadlock Holiday' is one of my favorite songs.
I agree, reaction channels need more 10cc, Supertramp, Dire Straits and Genesis Evberybody's already reacting to Queen, wich is a great band, but the 70's and 80's had many more
Alan White the great drummer of YES the greatest Prog Rock band in History has died....R.I.P. You may want to react to some of his drumming work of art.
There are so many great tracks full of humour and musical brilliance. The thinking mans pop band in the 70s. My fav was probably ‘Second sitting for the last supper’ with ‘Art for arts sake’ and ‘I’m Mandy Fly me’ close behind. .)
One of my all time favorites from 10cc !! Thanks! {Back in the day I used to sneak this on to mix tapes I'd give to friends .. EVERYONE, no exceptions LOVED it and demanded to know who it was !}

@@Semajsenrab72 👍💯👍
Pioneers of the video area were a couple of members 10cc Kevin Godley and Lol Creme.

not just a reggae hit but one of the best if not the best.

Good morning, Judge!! I didn't do it, I wasn't there.....take a listen to 10cc....lol
Another great Review.
Thanks Pope.
Please Review "I'm Mandy, Fly Me", by 10cc.
Keep Rockin'.

SCOTLAND 🎸🎸
Just follow the bass in this song it's killer.
10CC have a heap of good songs. Good Morning Judge is an up-tempo beauty.
Cheers
Harro 🤘😁
Oh man, forgot all about that one! 👍👍
Very cool oldie
For a different feel, less poppy, try their longer pieces like Feel The Benefit or One Night in Paris.
I strongly recommend listening to 10cc's Feel the Benefit. Fantastic song and also very different from the first two you've reacted to. Cheers!
Reggae mon!! That's how it's done. 😃
You've covered their mid and late 70s work. Try Rubber Bullets from their early 70s work and something completely different again! Great band.
One of my all time favorites from 10cc !! Thanks!
{Back in the day I used to sneak this on to mix tapes I'd give to friends .. EVERYONE, no exceptions LOVED it and demanded to know who it was !}
Two of these guys were early, big directors of MTV videos and also try a song called "Cry" by the same two guys
Lol this takes me back... I know every word and sang it loudly too 😆. What a fantastic song
That's a great old song.
They can rock too,check out Silly Love by them,you’ll be headbangin right away bruv.
Try Lee“ Scratch ” Perry and Linton Kwesi Johnson.
Damn I didn't think anyone really remembered this song...
BOB MARLEY "BIRTH OF A LEGEND" Is a MUST 💯
Filmed on the tropical beaches of the United Kingdom. LOL
You have to play "one night in paris "
The entire Bloody Tourists album is brilliant. This is the only reggae infused track on that album.
oh no, you have to watch the video
A sad day for Yes fans. Alan White passed away today, Pope😔
rip legend 🙏🏿
Please watch the video that goes with this, it's fab x
Feel the benefit parts 1,2,3 studio version be the very first too react.
Best 10cc album: Godley and Creme’s L. But all the 10cc albums from the 70s are great
Hey DOPE buy a REAL microphone!
