When I was nipper and lost in a shopping centre some punks helped me find my mum instead of getting bummed by some trainspotter. It stuck in my mind that day that appearances can be deceptive.
I watched some of them kicking the shit out of some mods in a railway station. As a rocker, that raised their profile for me. Much the same experience, don't you think?
I agree! Most rockstars and/or big name celebrities have slept around with groupies, gone through multiple marriages, maybe even fathered an affair baby or two (we're looking at you, Aarnold Schwarzenegger, Dwayne Wade, Snoop Dogg, and Nick Young). Meanwhile Johnny Rotten has stayed loyal to his wife all these decades, helped raise their grandkids when his stepdaughter couldn't, and stays by her side to help her daily as she battles late stage alzheimers. Sadly, that's a rarity these days. Kudos to him; he's a stand up guy.
Wow! What a great song! After an exhausting divorce I got the custody of my children. Days after my kids and I got excited and crazy just listening to this song that encouraged us to dance and yell! So after this awesome experience We all together found our own liberation! Thank you sons of Anarchy.
Look at Glen play that bass. That guy could rock it. Still can. So glad they got to do the reunion shows with Glen. He deserved to be back in the fold.
huh??? dude, punk NEVER went anywhere. punk has been alive and thriving the whole time. you just are not paying attention or have put your focus elsewhere.....
You can say what ever you want about the Sex Pistols: love them or think they're shit but in 50 or 100 years people will look back and remember bands like them when theres some kind of retrospective on Rock and Roll. I can't think of many groups if any today that will be remembered.
Despite butter commercials on TV, this is still the single greatest rock song ever. Full stop, fucking period. No other rock song ever galavanized an entire generation like this did. No other song so clearly drew a line between youth and the rest. Many thanks John.
Dear Lecco: Hi there! As everyone who knows or has heard about The Punk Movement, you reminded me somethin' key meanin' of it:... It is many, many brutaly angry NO(S), that layed down in the buttom, mean Y E S...! Surf of probably 70's counter of The Hippy Movement... I think.

These guys felt that after them-nothing like this will happen... Sid Vicious, died at the age of 21, but left a legacy in the souls of people so that we still remember these traces. The crazy guy will stay in our hearts forever!
First time I ever heard this song was on a megadeth album so far so good so what and was an instant fan of the song. That was my first introduction to punk rock when I was a kid cuz no one listened to that in my family. This was around 98 or 99. I was like 6 years old at the time. Still jamming to it over 20 years later!
Both Johhny Rotten and Keith Flint will always remind me of each other, they are like a loop in time! Both are not creators but both exhale the punk essence and attitude that gave a body to their respective bands in the same way, they are really a repetition in time.
Зато сейчас иногда собираются ради бабла все Панк коллективы связываются с комерцией рано или поздно нет ни одного коллектива который небыл бы комерческим
The Ramones nearly had everything, the guitar sound , standing against a brick wall and the leather jackets .The sick ironic lyrics but they didn't have the haircut .The Pistols had everything on their one album, the best punk album ever made
Imagine what these people would done if they figured out this was only the beginning, this is totally tame and soft core compared to up coming bands of the time like cannibal corps or pungent stench. Hahah.
The first time i heard this i was blown away.it was 11 oclock at night on a monday on a college radio station.i was 17 and was never the same.i couldnt imagine anyone could express that level of rage on a record.it spoke to me.i loved it.and i never looked back.
Yeah! I was there at that time... but I still see melody, harmony and classic rock in this punk even in Jonhny vocals... someone in this line up put together anarchy and music after all..
This song brings back lots of memories my first ever gig me and my band covered this song back in 2007-08 for the Naga Freshers meet Shillong Meghalaya. And still listening to it. 😂👍
Anyone is Australia ever remember the Sex Pistols being played on ABC TV’s Countdown show...did they have a blackban on them...I was only 9yrs old at the time, but watched Countdown religiously...

Still the greatest punk album of all time. Blew the fuck out of the Ramones and the Clash.
Absolutely WAY better than The Clash or the pathetic Ramones.

I think Johnny will count roughly how many people there are... that's his look at the end - sung it brilliantly!

That look he gives to the world in the final bars of the song is pure expressive genius. He doesn't need words.

LYRICS :
[Intro]
Right now, heh heh heh heh
[Verse 1]
I am an Antichrist
I am an anarchist
Don't know what I want but I know how to get it
I wanna destroy the passersby
[Chorus 1]
'Cause I, I wanna be anarchy!
No dogsbody!
[Verse 2]
Anarchy for the U.K. it's coming sometime and maybe
I give a wrong time, stop a traffic line
Your future dream is a shopping scheme
[Chorus 2]
'Cause I, I wanna be anarchy!
In the city
[Verse 3]
How many ways to get what you want
I use the best, I use the rest
I use the N.M.E
I use anarchy
[Chorus 3]
'Cause I, I wanna be anarchy!
The only way to be!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Is this the M.P.L.A
Or is this the U.D.A
Or is this the I.R.A
I thought it was the U.K
Or just another country
Another council tenancy
[Outro]
I wanna be anarchy
And I wanna be anarchy
Know what I mean
And I wanna be anarchist!
I get pissed, destroy!

There was a difference the Ramones had a little bit of talent
The Ramones were an American radio-friendly pop group. The Pistols were real punks. No similarity whatsoever.

I was born in the UK, & moved to USA when I was a teen. This is just brilliant music, & as good as it gets really.
They made June 2020 uk into a real song

Haven't listened to them since I was 16 so I'm glad I've been listening to their songs again

That bass line ...the genius of it all is just brilliant... And I missed it back in the day 🤯🤷
I just wanted to listen to some early punk rock bands. Already fallen in love after 5 songs.
Try the Angelic Upstarts - a South Shields ( Tyneside UK) band from back in the day. Don't tell anyone how old I am lol
I just love Steve Jones's tight guitar riffs especially on the opening to Pretty Vacant. Poor old Sid wasn't a patch on Glen Matlock.
Classic. What the stooges started in 1969 in Detroit, made it's way to the the Romones, then to England. I grew up in Detroit, believe it and how!
One of my first rock songs i heard on the 70s when i was a teen
The Sex Pistols
The Clash
