The guitar tone that Keith Levene gets on this, the very first PIL song, was something else. If you were lucky enough to be around at the time, it was so, so different. I was 14 when I bought this single, and fortunate that my Da spent a lot on his sound system. To hear this blasting through speakers that he used at discos, via a savage pre-amp and amp, ... you'd grit your teeth in the last bit. The neighbours complained, most of my friends thought it was insane. And today, it still sounds better than 80% of the music made now, because it was real. Because they meant it. It's art.

Bought this single when I was a 15 year old part-time punk living in the suburbs. For me, this song still stands up 40 years on. It's simplicity, power, anger and beauty have not dimmed. If anything the lyrics are even more pertinent today than when they were written in 1978. The bass is a work of the simplest genius.

Keith Levenes guitar work in this song is so under rated. There is one bass line that plays thru the entire song (great one too), but there is no verse, chorus, bridge or middle 8 like most songs. The song moves along thru Levenes amazing use of chords and rhythm on the guitar. He flavors the song with brilliant guitar work. So many players could learn from his style.

To come out of the starting blocks with a song this great is pretty bloody seldom seen. Lydon cast off the Pistols and his former image with this manifesto of intent, but the music! My God, nothing sounded this powerful since early punk made us sit up and listen. Levine's amazing Eastern guitar, Walker's krautrock drum beat and perhaps the most important element, Wobble's dub loop bass line. Genius.

Keith Levene's guitar riff is maybe the most original and simplest. I love it for the first time I heard this brilliant song in 1979. My life means nothing without it!

Wish I could add another like everytime I watch this. I went back through the last 2 days comments. The guitar on this is absolutely unforgettable on its own. Another plug pulled from this mortal amplifier. Rest in Noise Keith Levene.

The lyrics are more so true today, than when the song was written. Image is everything in life, to most people, but the people who break the mould and make their own image,and do not conform, are the real people of this world.

Probably one of the best Bass intros of all time. The rest is up there as well ta boot. Was a late teen at the time and clearly remember this for the first time. Rottens voice and the most well structured noise anybody has ever created

Can't think of a better place to pop by and pay my respects to Keith. This single was a defining musical moment for this teenager back in '78, and unlike me, never gets old. The melodious B-side "Cowboy Song" was always good if you needed an endless cough track. 😼

I doubt I've ever been as happy about anything in my life, as I am about having lived my teenage years through this era. I was thirteen when this came out, and can still remember buying the newspaper-clad single and monopolising my parent''s record player for weeks after.

You never listen to a word that I said You only seen me For the clothes that I wear Or did the interest go so much deeper Imust have been The colour of my hair CHORUS Public image What you wanted was never made clear Behind the image was ignorance and fear You hide behind this public machine Still follow same old scheme CHORUS Two sides to every story Somebody had to stop me I'm not the same as when I began I will not be treated as property CHORUS Public image you got what you wanted Public image belongs to me It's my entrance My own creation My grand finale My goodbye

One of the things I love so much about this song is that the lyrics have meaning. They actually sat down and wrote a song and sang it. I've heard so many songs lately that are just one or two sentences repeated over and over and they don't mean anything.

Greetings from Bangkok, Thailand. A totally profound moment in time, it was fabulous then, but most probably even better now, superb sounds. I can remember watching Public Image, perform live on Top of the Pops (BBC1) during the late 70's, when these guys first released this trademark song. It's true the whole British Punk Rock scene, will go down in history as being a time of rebellious young individuals (there where so many fabulous groups) If truth be known we all enjoyed being different, mixed together with it's unusual lyrics & explosive fast paced music. I guess it's ingrained in our DNA. Long live British Culture. Freedom & Peace, always.

Simply a perfect song, the essence of post punk, smart, intellectual, critical, brilliant bass line, brilliant guitar riffs, Lydon's inimitable voice. It doesn't get better than this. It's up there with other Platonic essences like Tomorrow Never Knows or GBV's Gold Star for Robot Boy.
