Is He Wearing Pants | T. Rex | Children Of The Revolution | 3 Generation Reaction

[@blondjohnyblueeyes]

You want more T Rex? They were the best selling band in the UK from 1971-1974. Lead guitarist and vocalist, Marc Bolan, practically invented glitter/glam rock. Check out these other T Rex songs: 20th Century Boy; Metal Guru; Telegram Sam; Cosmic Dancer; Rabbit Fighter; Rock On; Mambo Sun; Hot Love, Jeepster; Slider and lots more

[@daveborder7751]

Gold Lamé Trousers-sparkly/shiny outfits were very much the rage in Europe back then & were very common in the glam rock scene-Roxy Music, Slade, Bowie etc.

[@balticstain7150]

Fantastic song...remember it well.

[@balticstain7150]

Marcel boland died at 29 in a car crash 😢 1977

[@oldmanghost219]

T. Rex ... takes me way back. Love your reactions.

[@christinebakewell3475]

You got it bang on he definitely always had it going on BIG TIME - early 70s in the U.K. he was bigger than anyone and pretty much started the British glam rock phenomenon. Loads more to check out.

[@DavidPola1961]

Look at all those young Grandparents on the Dance Floor , takes you back to your childhood in the 60's and 70's loved it

[@zivabrogan5807]

The T.V. show was the revered and idolised, Top Of The Pops! Fantastic!!!

[@jacobreisser8034]

I used to live close to where he was killed. There are always fresh flowers there every day.

[@michaelavery6390]

Good evening ladies. If you didn'ti know there is a TV performance of the TRex song called Bang a Gong ( Get it On ) on Video. It features Trex and Elton John on Piano. It is from 1971 and its on a program called Top of the Pops. Best Wishes 😊

[@Masonicbrother]

There is also a video of Children of the Revolution with Elton John on piano and Ringo Starr is on the drums.

[@phonebone81]

I saved my pocket money for a long time to go to a concert a year later in 1972. When it started I wasn't so keen on T.Rex anymore but I went anyway and was excited by this really cool opening act and it was "Status Quo" and they played one of their first hits "Tune to the Music" and that blew me away. You can tell from my bad english language that I'm from Hamburg/Germany but it is what it is. T.Rex and David Bowie were the founders of (then so called glimring) or glittery rock music.

[@EvanWeber1234]

T. Rex is a great band! So many great song!

[@ThomasKelly669]

I love the old Top of the Pops Watching the audience trying to dance, is a sideshow in it self 😂🫶✌️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

[@christopherbarnett6098]

Marc Bolan & T-rex were my first music heroes. Then Hendrix. And the rest is history. I'm a very lucky Bear. Lol. Peace out.

[@stornowayscotland]

3 beautiful queens thanks for the reaction ❤

[@shirleyanneyoung955]

Such a beautiful, beautiful man. My brother is named Marc after him, I chose his name.

[@andrewwright9378]

He clearly has gold trousers on!

[@finosborne1665]

If you let the video play out you wouldnt have needed to comment ....?

[@alexfletcher5192]

Marc never penetrated the US but in Britain (and Europe) he became a superstar. 14 million records in a couple of years is not to be sniffed at. And he was a prime motivator for David Bowie.

[@twowirenuts7221]

His pants are gold colored

[@KeithClark-g3n]

Trousers, he's British!

[@susanfriend-k5m]

I was 15 when this came out the pants were very tight in those days. He was big in the UK but went too soon. Good reaction from you all.

[@cricketbat09]

Marc Bolan was a huge Glam rock star here in the UK and Europe. This video is from a German TV show, which featured clips from the BBC TV show, Top of the Pops. Your reactions are so amusing. I subbed!

[@tmznt]

I thought Kathy would quickly spot any guys with no pants on, so I knew he had to have had pants on, lol. Love T Rex. They weren’t around long enough.

[@jeffreyflint6286]

Yeah man!!❤❤❤❤ high school memories 👍👍

[@andrewcoyle3511]

Miss you Marc. R.I.P. son.

[@kylereese4822]

Is Marc Bolan the inspiration(in look) for The Crow comic & Brandon Lee... ?

[@sonsofthunder915]

Yes, Marc has pants on. The producers made him because he was on TV. LOL RIP Marc

[@ManuelGuajardo-zd7hx]

Yes Kathy you will always want to know if the guy is wearing pants lol. Wintersun Alex ❄️♥️

[@MarchMeadow]

Brilliant! If you like Marc Bolan/T-Rex, you'll love his British contemporary David Bowie - try Jean Genie from 1973, the Top Of The Pops LIVE version. Wonderful and classic.

[@jillosler9353]

Is she BLIND? Of course he has pants (trousers) on! This was the era of Glam Rock where artists wore flamboyant clothes on stage - so his trousers are gold coloured.

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

[@rogerreed905]

[@garethjamesdavies6850]

They were huge in Britain. Marc Bolan died in a car crash about age 29.....❤

[@robsmith6281]

Leaning forward to see better lol😉😉

[@T-ShirtMagic]

Raised on T.Rex's *Electric Warrior* and *The Slider* Albums - how deep is this cut? (don't remember it). My Classic Favs: *Mambo Sun, Cosmic Dancer, Jeepster, Get It On, Life's a Gas, Rip Off, Hot Love* *Metal Guru, Rock On, The Slider, Baby Boomerang, Spaceball Ricochet, Telegram Sam, and Main Man*

[@skooshy621]

Same here 🎩 I'd add two of my favourites, Baby Strange and Thunderwing, to your list 🦢

[@MB-oc1nw]

I thought he had no pants on as well at first. I did a double take 😄

[@Design2winLew]

Yet another one taken too soon and so gifted .

[@Reba-123]

Oh how I miss Glam Rock and the fashions.. this is my fav song of T-Rex RIP Marc gone far too soon.. he’s got trousers on 😂 gold colour…..remember watching this on TV Top Of The Pops, at the time lol

[@DLT100]

tight satin flares 🤣 naughty mama 🤣

[@thoru4367]

Awesome

[@PeterDay81]

Pants or trousers?Pants in the UK are underwear.🤣

[@shirleyanneyoung955]

He probably wasn’t wearing underwear.🫠

[@deggsymarley]

Saw the title my favourite band from my childhood , like to hear your feelings about the song, sadly more of a fashion reaction ..

[@spursgog835]

RIP Marc 🤘🇬🇧

[@PW6805]

He was high as a kite

[@davidmooney2512]

Also Uriah Heep song Stealing on the Midnight Special

[@colinwilson4609]

Sure it was the 1970s, but even Tattoo from the Love Boat was wearing pants.

[@markmccormack635]

The show they were on was top of the pop on the bbc

[@daveborder7751]

Nope, this was a German show called Disco. They had the same TOTP set-up with people dancing around the band though.

[@davidmooney2512]

Saying again LuLu song 🎵 To Serve with Love it's a singer LuLu Mid 60's

[@alasdairfinlayson]

Almost right. The title was "To sir with love". Beautiful song from good film. Worth a listen, with or without reactions.

[@alangroom5]

metal guru is a must reaction a 70s athem

[@gte1961]

Yes, he's got trousers on.

[@thomask8367]

This live performance for a TV show is a bit of sneak in how they did those recordings in the early 70s. The drummer is well visible, too 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHKsZYJrrNR3n7Msi=KgQm23gtDxSBk2qY

[@finosborne1665]

It looked like you enjoyed his hip thrusts at 7:01

[@annereidy7981]

He has gold coloured pants on?

[@AbzScotland]

shiny gold lol.

[@colinu9209]

Marc was well known for his golden legs 😂

[@Gordon_Lee88]

Great musician and the father of GlamRock unfortunately he was killed in a Car wreak early one morning in 1978

[@tanyaweathersby9393]

❤

[@paulhadfield7909]

i listen to the song, ha ha

[@MikePhillips-pl6ov]

You spent all the time talking about how Marc looked and was dressed up, but nothing on the song or if you liked or disliked it! I normally give you guys a like (coz I like you as well as your reactions), but can't this time as wanted to hear you all discuss the music - even if you hated it!

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

,

[@bobbrinkerhoff3592]

I think it's just wishful thinking on somebodie's part . Then again the BBC was a little more lenient than our broadcast networks . Don't feel bad about never having heard this before . I was 15 back in '72 , and I've never heard it before .

[@jackstafford2316]

Please please please do the stroke and lonely is the night by billy squire I promise you will love them

[@wildmorrison]

PLEASE REACT TO "HUMBLE PIE - I DONT NEED NO DOCTOR LIVE MIDNIGHT SPECIAL 1973"

[@spruce381]

Not loving the opening. ❤️👍🏽👍☘️

Omg all that time mistakenly talking about his pants, like half the video.

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

,

[@thomasbarr5940]

Sound quality 0f your vid is awful..not sure what's causing it

[@peterzimmer9549]

Gold lame trousers.

[@ifindoubtbailout70]

Great band, great song, ruined by a bad sound copy🫣

[@Scotsman1969]

Gold lame pants.

[@jimmcrobert7521]

Children of the corn

[@ralphneuner4288]

Glam Rock at its finest. Unfortunately Marc Bolan died in a car crash in 1977, he wasn't even driving, his girlfriend was, she lived, he was instant dead. Such a shame

[@thunderspike1892]

His then girlfriend was Gloria Jones. She are a soul singer known as the one who originally recorded Tainted Love in 1965. Became a big hit for Soft Cell and Marilyn Manson.
