Slade ~ How Does It Feel ~ Slade In England

[@deanmarsh4042]

Such a brilliant song the lads at their best its criminal that it only reached number 15 in 1975 it should have been number 1

[@fus149hammer5]

Sadly, as good as the song was Slade were on the slide, glam rock was losing out to the emerging tripe that became disco and the raucous rockers like Mama had stopped. The band took a nine month break to make the film then went on a failed tour of the states which was nearly fatal. Years in the wilderness playing to hardened fans (such as myself) or what Dave Hill called "Chicken in a basket places" like Baileys of Watford only ended when they were asked to fill in for Ozzy Osbourne. The rest is history.

[@benthedo]

Yep.. ridiculous, such an emotive song with Nods vocals faultless.. great track.. nearly 50 years later still sounds good..

[@HandleGF]

You put the history in a nutshell there yourself, mate. Thank you.@@fus149hammer5 PS I rem that prick Geldof (he's despised over here) on Irish TV in '77 or '78 saying "We don't want to end up like Slade" (you should have been so lucky, Sir Major Bob).

[@schumann1152]

Two thumbs down? Really? This is an absolutely brilliant masterpiece folks!

[@MikeOTW]

Thank you Schumann. It was Slade at their best.

[@greywolf907]

Always a few detractors...but, I ignore the deaf, blind and stupid.

[@Slademanxx]

Noel Gallagher said it's one of the greatest songs ever written.

[@spudbyrne9497]

The most underrated rock band ever

[@jonost24]

It was scoffed at when they played Donington in '81, but they smashed it!!

[@myplan8166]

Underrated? Really? From germany, anyone i know, knows them, and likes them. Just not making big fuzz about them.

[@AboutFocusTV]

Still listening to this in 2022. With everything that is going on in the world at the moment this song is even more poignant. Also happens to be Slade’s finest song ever.

[@lesliegiles2632]

2023 now ...fantastic song

[@paulweston285]

Noddy rates Far Far Away as his fav

[@MikeOTW]

Couldn't agree more. Always been a wonderfully uplifting song.

[@grahamgazheads9739]

life in england is shit no hope no future listening to slade reminds when life in england was good

[@Марго-ш2и]

❤

[@guyjiminjapan9824]

How good these guys were! We're lucky to have experienced their music.

[@nigelw512]

As a 70s kid I can relate. Slade are and always been brilliant . But this track blows you away.

[@TheLee105]

'Slade in Flame' was the best 'Band' film ever made.....It showed the darker side of the business and told it like it really was.......

[@mickday4404]

I woz there

[@user-vh8fk1yv5g]

TIMELESS CLASSIC!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH NODDY AND THE LADS. STILL RELEVANT EVEN TODAY!! ALSO LOVE MAMA WERE ALL CRAZY NOW!! CLASSIC

[@robharding4028]

We can't always like the same things, But I don't care to much what the rest of the world thinks, I just know this film is great, and the band even greater. Happy 2021 folks ! We love you !!

[@spudbyrne9497]

What a song what a band. So it’s time to get slade into rock hall of fame

[@johnclark448]

Its unbeleivable theyre not

[@fus149hammer5]

Ninety five percent of hall of fame inductees are American. Just check the listings. Slade have no chance. To this day the best reaction they'd get over the water is "Oh yeah they did a cover of that Quiet Riot song".

[@alanbitterman9909]

This band don’t belong in a hall of fame,,, we already know who they are 4 exceptionally talented musicians creating some of the best music ever written songs sang by one of the finest oralists who ever opened his mouth,,, and all still with us to this day,,, if ever there was a sign from god then surely that is it,,, ladies and gentlemen the world brings you SLAYYYYDE,,, how does that feel 🙏

[@fus149hammer5]

@@alanbitterman9909 When Nod opens his gob and the lads play all is right in my world. I grew up listening to Slade. They got me into rock and metal and at the age of 62 I still am.🤘🤟🤘🤟

[@astroroadshow]

I just can't think of a band today that can give that great orchestral sound in rock form.

[@simonpalling3215]

Brilliant stuff. Slade in Flame...... my first ever music , bought for me by my dad in about 1975, along with a mono cassette player and Band on the Run, also on cassette. Slade...so much more than just loud....

[@HandleGF]

The greatest to have ever come from the Black Country. Slade and Duncan Edwards.

[@Михаил-в2т]

Самая лучшая песня Нодди, величайшего вокала всех времен и народов. Лучший голос на планете!!!

[@markobrien1439]

Absolutely Brilliant timeless song.........can never understand why Slade have never been invited to Glastonbury......They were and still are a band certainly worthy of it.

[@mariaharding5998]

Noddy was fighting cancer for a few years so there was no question of any kind of full reunion xxx

[@olgarumianceva6114]

Нодди - настоящий красавец, а голос - просто чудо!

[@johnclark448]

Its easy to forget how good Noddy sings and how good Slade are as a band

[@spudbyrne9497]

John Clark not one of the best the best singer and the best band

[@colinlatham7905]

Not for me!

[@sebastianwelcome2080]

yea it is a good song there was a good band man more than just the Christmas song

[@richardyoung7415]

The problem was, they only played the big anthem songs of SLADE on the box, if you bought a SLADE ALBUM you got all the songs they dun, and you,d realise how good their other work was , long live SLADE. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIENDS. 🙏 😎✌✌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@fus149hammer5]

We all know 'Mama', 'Noize' 'Jane' and that bloody Christmas song and we all rock out to them. I will love those songs until it's my time for my last journey and even then I want Noddys voice to send me off but to me the best songs written by the boys? 'Far Far Away' and 'How Does It Feel?'. Sublime music criminally underrated by the ignorant masses. Their song writing talent easily matches those two overrated gits from Liverpool.

[@ПавелМихеев-в3б]

Эта вещь открывает альбом "Slade In Flame" я услышал ее в 1977 году, и влюбился в альбом на всю жизнь ! Slade Великая группа ! 💓💥🙂

What a wonderful song - in my youth I loved Slade and today I still find her brilliant

[@michaelsewell6996]

Loved Slade in Flame ... great film about the music business.....full of great songs too 😊😊😊

[@aliengrey6052]

Slade we’re my introduction to rock music as a kid of 13. They were a revelation. This is the soundtrack to a boy growing up in the midlands …….ME. Thankyou Slade. To be played at my funeral.

[@fus149hammer5]

Exactly my story too except I was in the east end of London. 🤟😉

[@williamdrummond7687]

Far Far Away for mine 😀

[@garythomas2417]

Nod the God... Somebody said Robert plant he could not hold a candle to this Man he is undoubtedly the best rock singer to come out of these shores!! Even turned down ACDC that tells you something

[@ЮрийМаркин-р7ъ]

LONG LIVE SLADE!!!!! 🥂🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🤝🤝🤝💥💥💥 (GREETINGS FROM RUSSIA !).

[@mslattery8710]

I've rediscovered this song recently after being reminded of it in a recent interview with Dave Hill in the Guardian. It's funny how some songs regain currency years later. Just last night C4 News used this song in an end piece commerating the first anniversary of the pandemic in this country. Against a backdrop of video and stills from inside hospitals, vaccination centres, kids with their faces pressed against window panes, the song took on a poignancy in the context of a year of struggle and tragedy faced by Britain. I can't think of a more suitable piece of music, expressing both sadness and optimism in the face of loss and change.

[@ShaneRaw1]

One of the best ever written from the West Midlands......God Bless Us..

[@ianwalsh8098]

Best live group ever, Best rock group ever, Best entertainment ever SLADE always puts a big😀 on my face when I’m feeling a little down and that’s what slade are Noddy & Jim Lea should be up there with the Best for the song’s they wrote, and the group should be in the Rock hall of fame pure quality and a great pleasure to have them in my life

[@Dzerginsk]

Песня неземной красоты! И вокал просто убивает! Аааааааааа!!!!!

Brilliant song, and a wonderful song always by Slade

[@maximumrnb66]

First band i ever saw live over 45yrs ago...totally blew me away and they still rates as one of the best bands ive EVER seen live...👍👍👍👍

[@friedhelmmauer4219]

Slade did a lot of super songs, but this one is the completest ever.

[@maddog8621]

So true. An accomplishment beyond the beyond

[@gerrycoogan6544]

Slade were a terrific band. Although they were very successful in commercial terms, I always felt that they didn't get the critical respect that they deserved. This is great pop/rock music.

[@colinlatham7905]

One of my favourite Slade songs and I love so many

[@67THEROCKER]

I grew up in the 70s and 80s. I remember Slade a great British rock band

[@sebastianwelcome2080]

l know alot more than noddy holder saying shouting its Christmas l dint known there did so much good past songs till about 2006 -2007 l grew in the 80s and 90s

[@andrewcroft6855]

just magnificent, they were and will always be THE very best

[@jennytalia226]

this song, along with the footage of Slade in Flame, sums up when Britain suddenly changed for the worst. It seems somewhere in 1975 the whole country went down the shithole and greed became the new god. Gone went the innocent days and in came hate and violence, it can't be a coincidence that all the country's ' slums ' ( and I was proud to come from one on Tyneside ) were being demolished and replaced by highrise flats where the soul of the Community was destroyed. Well done Slade, you captured THE defining moment in this brilliant song and film. I always feel sad when listening to this for a past that has gone forever and a terrible world we now live in has emerged, cheers lads.

[@frank290862]

48 years ago now! Beautiful song.

[@steve_dangerous]

The 'Greed' was nothing like the greed this last 20 years. The country was down the shitter back then and mostly because of the unions taking the piss. Slade were, of course, the antidote.

[@DavidGarrick1515]

I was still a schoolboy in 1974. Late in the evening, my friend and I rode the subway after a workout in the gym, there were not many people in the underground carriage, and we listened to Slade “In Flame”. It was great ! It was one of the first recordings on my tape recorder, which my parents gave me for entering the university after school one year later !

[@ShareTalk]

Still here in June 2024, you watching

[@MikeOTW]

How Does It Feel has been my go to song when I need a boost from my favourite band. I so want to find this film!

Great group very underrated 🥰

[@fus149hammer5]

Only underrated by morons. Many rock bands openly admit they were influenced by Slade. Kiss Twisted Sister WASP Quiet Riot Def Leppard Wild John Oasis have said that without Slade there wouldn't be an Oasis. Praise indeed. They are also highly rated by musicians and song writers. As I said only morons don't appreciate Slade. 😁🤟 Wild John was my band 🤭😉

wow this takes me back to the day Slade came to Glasgow to promote the one and only SLADE IN FLAME 🔥 Noddy was on top of a horse drawn hearse with radio Clyde DJ Richard parks and the rest of the band were in their own car rolls Royce and I was there that day I had white trousers and a fanclub Slade in flame 🔥 t shirt original and I was running beside the hearse with Noddy on top I managed to pass to him a wee gonk with a tartan top hat about that famous song from the movie yes the one and only HOW DOES IT FEEL what a song what made it special was having a full orchestra that with the band blew me away again it's very special as my son was born the night it was on top of the pops released yes Neville John holder milne yes after our Noddy holder so very proud of that night I got a poster from the undertaker on top of the hearse with Noddy he liked what I was wearing FLAME 🔥 t shirt saw the film also loved it I saw it a few times I liked the idea they used a hearse with horses Glasgow was well SLAYED that day again all the best to SLADE and Family and special wishes to all Slade fans everywhere from John milne and his SLADE FAMILY from Cumbernauld Scotland KEEP ON ROCKIN
