An all-time classic hit single, Demon Music Group presents this Top Of The Pops performance of ‘20th Century Boy’ in its full length for the first time in 50 years..

T.Rex made only one TOTP performance in support of 20th Century Boy, recorded on 28 February 1973, but the BBC did not keep a copy. However, via a licensing agreement with ZDF in Germany the bulk of the performance was broadcast on their “Disco 73” programme and a copy was retained. Demon Music Group have now been able to combine this with the Super 8 footage to complete the performance for the first time.

20th Century Boy remains one of the most-loved T.Rex tracks with its distinctive guitar riff instantly recognised for its power and style. It has been widely covered, including by Def Leppard, Placebo with David Bowie and Siouxsie & The Banshees.

Highly-collectible, limited edition ‘20th Century Boy’ 7” Picture Disc out now! 🔗 [ Ссылка ]

Lyrics:

Friends say it’s fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood

I move like a cat, charge like a ram, sting like a bee
Babe I want to be your man, hey

It's plain to see you were meant for me
I'm your boy, your 20th century toy

Friends say it’s fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood

Fly like a plane, drive like a car, bawl like a hound
Babe I want to be your man

It's plain to see you were meant for me yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

Friends say it’s fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Rock and Roll

Move like a cat, charge like a ram, sting like a bee
Babe I want to be your man

It's plain to see you were meant for me yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

My friends say it’s fine
They say it's good
I don’t believe it's like Robin Hood
I’m like a car
Drive like a plane
I wanna hang your head in the fallin’ rain
Ah yeah…
