Johnny Rotten's Tour of London

[@nana-rs8en]

"If I was a true anarchist I would recommend everyone buy Britney Spears albums. But I'm not. So keep buying the Clash!" Never a truer word has been said.

[@mjh5437]

I like some of their music bt hate the Clash...they took all the humour and fun out of the Punk scene.

[@donnahandsley9067]

It was the Brixton riots that were the result of Margaret Thatchers poll tax. You have no idea. J Rotten is taking the piss out of Brittany and the Clash. Get it? There is nothing sweet or cool about it. Goth is just a trend so is emo. It's like wearing a costume in black looking like a join -in. No anthem, no message no idea. D

hes so right about the archetecture in london. its so sad that they keep knocking down nice buildings and building shit ones. its losing all its character

[@Captain_Rhodes]

Clariccy Jones just that modern archaetecture is shit and he occasionally uses his power to help block new developments.

[@Captain_Rhodes]

Clariccy Jones yes. I grew up in london in the 80's and I actually miss all the old warehouses and factories, even the ones that were run down. now I feel like Im not wanted anymore. most new places are all fenced off and sterile

[@rossmum]

He's right, it's happening everywhere. Buildings with history, things that would stand a thousand years if you let them - replaced by some shitawful pile of glass and aluminium that looks like a cat's vomited it up. They'll stand 20, maybe 30 years and then be replaced by some other soulless kak. Even when I come across modern architecture I don't mind, it has a place - and that place isn't the centre of London, or any other city.

[@Captain_Rhodes]

Johnny Rotten Lydon has aged like fine wine, and will forever be youthful in spirit with a twinkle in his eye, even when he's 100 + yrs. old. Thanks for the tour, John! Yer so much fun! Yer pride in British civilization is evident, as is yer disappointment with the current state of affairs in London. You have earned a proper place in British history by now. Loved how you ended your tour on the rooftop at sunset with memories of Gunther Grove when you were young during your rooftop party days. Good times! Then the gentrification of London sent you over the edge...goodbye, cruel world! Then - surprise! - you popped back to life, like a cheerful, impish sprite - ha, ha, ha! You're truly loveable and adorable! : ) Cheers to you, John!

He smiled and asked me where I came from and who I supported. When I told him Battersea and the Arsenal he was immediately friendly.

We need another Sex Pistols moment

[@danielaschwarz1971]

Edward Bliss Yessss and Johnny Rotthen aka John Lydon is sooo right:All this modern shit in London makes me angry too,because I was in London in the middle of the 80s & in the beginning of the 90s very often.The old London with Tower Bridge,Big Ben and much,much more of London was fantastic!!!!!Johnny say it right and a big good smile for that,Johnny: at 17:39 What they done to these town?It´s kill the culture,we know that is an alien object (that what I understand) when they showed the ugly new buildings and he said:Another 100 Years?No chance of it..!!! I hope it and when he said:Blow it up(sorry for my english) ,I totally agree with him. We need loads of another Sex Pistol moments;-))

+signoguns....You mean wit The Libertines Pete Doherty(sorry when I write him wrong) but Pete looked a bit like Sid when Pete was young and looked good....okay Sid was a heavy heroin addict but so beautiful for me....Pete is not to pretty at all but he still lives and I think he is clean now.

I genuinely think exactly the same as John, it’s insane! The more I learn the more I think John just says it as it is and literally hits the nail on the head

[@albaproductions9602]

What I like about John is there is no in between it's either black or white.

I think this was about 12 yrs ago, my god how London has changed now. I moved out of London 20 yrs ago. It's like landing on another planet when I go back now, unrecognisable place, sad.

This was filmed in 2006. I saw an evening standard advert for Paul McCartney /Heather Mills Court case so that dates it.

[@fraggit]

@@dazauto1400 That's how I dated it, with Evening Standard headlines. I think the McCartney/Mills headline is a bit misleading because their spat went on for years, but if you check the other Evening Standard headlines dotted about, it points to 2008. Also this video comes from the Sex Pistols "There'll always be an England" concert film from 2008 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There%27ll_Always_Be_an_England_(film) Now that doesn't categorically define the year Lydon was on the open top bus, but I think the other Evening Standard headlines do. At the end of the day, whichever year it was, what's two years between fellow commentators :)

[@Isleofskye]

You should have been there in The 1960s, my friend or maybe you were? :) Please put in "London 1967" to see the change. Where are you now, please?

[@fraggit]

@@Isleofskye I was born in the mid 60's. Don't get me wrong, I loved London, working and growing up in the 70's, 80's and 90's, but I kinda grew out of it. To be fair, lots of cities in the UK have changed over nearly 20 yrs. I moved to the Isle of Man in 2002. My kids were under 5 and a job came up, so my wife and I thought, why not.

"Has anyone seen a cockney lately?", yeah they're all in Essex. When the world moved into London, they moved out.

Helmut McFranklinstein ...or Kent

Essex is Fucked now it's full of the world's Shit.... Third world Shithole..... that's Essex now like the rest of Britain its Fucked

[@MultiPetercool]

May the road rise with you Mr. Lydon.

[@ianupton1971]

I like John, he says it how it is and how it should be.

[@leolady6588]

Haha! "Champagne socialism". Beautiful. "All like clipped budgies in their cages". True. He's still soooo refreshingly non pc and observant. He verbally paints in expressionism.

If the common people are the Tories, the Brexiters, and the Maga gobshites.

@@fdfsdfsvsfgsg4888 Ignore my last question to you. You are obviously a Marxist/communist idiot. Go on, now tell me how Racist and homophobic John lydon is, you know you want to get it off your chest..you know, the chest where you wear the pearls you're grabbing right now..rofl
