Around the time this came out they also had an album called Love Bites and I went into my local record store in Camberley and asked the girl if she had love bites. She got all embarrassed but I explained it was by the Buzzcocks and she found me a copy. We chatted, I asked her for a date and we have been married for 40 years now. Brings back great memories. Thanks guys.
My husband Gareth & I loved this song. He's gone now. I lost him in 2020 to cancer at 58yrs old. We had 34yrs together. Always think of him when I hear this song. Love you Gar- always miss you love. ❤❤
Always loved the Buzzcocks. Found a Buzzcocks are Coming reprint t-shirt several years ago. My wife always hides it at the bottom of the pile so I forget to wear it. Oddly she finds it embarrassing. This makes me smile.
The Buzzcocks were ahead of the times in the late 70,s, looking back forty years later the lyrics still have a meaning and the melodies are catchy to almost everyone not just old punks like me.

Must have been 1980 by time I heard the Buzzcocks out here in Oz as I got into punk. Never thought I would get to see a pommy punk band but one day we were holidaying in Adelaide South Australia and there was a poster on a pole advertising the Buzzcocks at a local pub (1990). I didn’t believe it would actually be them, maybe just a cover band… but wouldn’t you know it it was them, and sounded exactly as they did on all my albums. One of my best memories. I’m 60 now and still crank them out regularly ❤

I have the utmost and deepest respect for the vital hard work you struggled through. Be it rain, shine, snow, blizzards or even tropical cyclones. You're the backbone of the country and get nowhere near enough gratitude.
Pete was my closest buddy at Bolton Institute of Technology, and we lived at Radcliffe Road together in 1975. He was a very nice guy to know personally.
@Matt Borel Pete was very friendly. I loved him. He was my soulmate at the time. We spent the whole night long discussing diverse topics of politics, religion, sex and human behaviour in general. His girlfriend Hillary Collins was the one who worked in Woolworths (it was a temporary job because she was a student of psychology at the time). Dearest Pete, Rest In Peace my dear friend. x
And yes he was highly talented. He and his bandmates practised in the cellar at 54 Radcliffe Road Bolton Lancs UK. Garth Davies played bass, was openly gay, and occasionally attempted to attack me with a knife.
@Matt Borel Pete told me that Garth's looks wouldn't do for a professional band. Pete smiled and said Garth was "visually unacceptable". They knew each other from school days. Pete had a genuine affection for Garth but not in the way Garth wanted it LOL

One correction: "you make me feel *I'm * dirt and I'm hurt", not "feel like dirt". It changes the dynamic between the lovers in the song. Didn't anyone hear that but me?

Saw these when I was a young punk in 1977, the year I left school, my mom went nuts at my clothes 😂😂 the energy of the bands then was amazing and we got together with the rasta's and joined together ☮️😍 brilliant time to be a teenager, the mixed music, club scene, breaking boundaries 🌟🇬🇧
I remember seeing these with Joy Division Manchester Apollo,shortly after i had saved enough to go to the Roxy and buy my first ever pair of bondage pants.when i got home my old fella said your not wearing them things in here,i did and also thought Andy your an Anarchist and you have arrived happy days,now 60 and still pogo at gigs just for the hell of it😂
As a kid I used to have nightmares all the time... horrific and vivid, so I started listening to late night radio to take my mind off things, John Peel used to play this tune often, my nightmares subsided. I'm not for an instant getting into a cause V effect debate, but the poetry pleased me, anxiety shared is anxiety halfed.
Listening to John Peel head under the blankets, with one earbud were the first times I felt like I wasn't the only weirdo in the world, too. Thanks for sharing that thought. It nudged a happy memory, from a time I usually think of us hard.

And later we had Johnny Marr (The Smiths) kind of thanks to him. Johnny Marr, born John Martin Maher changed his name to avoid the confusion with Buzzcocks drummer.
@Sadie Wilkinson Punk was not made in England. The Ramones, dolls, iggy and Richard Hell were before the pistols. I like British punk more with the exception of the Heartbreakers lp. British punk is better in my opinion but it was created here. Rock n roll period was created here.
I was 15 when i watched this, absolutely loved, brought records, seeing this is just amazing, 57 now, but then so sad RIP Pete, you were amazing. 💖 you.and thanks for your great musicxxxx
Same age mate. Saw them in concert at the Manchester Apollo supported by Joy Division, claim to fame. I'm from Stockport, just the next town away from Gorton where he lived I think. I live in Australia, still got all the old records, 7 inch and albums. Today is the first I've heard of his passing, shit. He wasn't that old. Will have to go and have a look now. Cheers mate.
fuck i was 8 when he sung this , where have the years gone, turn it up loud in the car on the upper north shore enjoying this at 50 ....lol never to old
RIP Pete Shelley, as someone else alluded to in the comments this is the form (Plato) of a pop song. People will still be listening to this in 200 year I reckon.
62 years old. When this album came out a few years back, it was the best music I'd heard in many years, and ive been a rock addict since 7 years of age. Wore the cd out in my car and also made the grandkids big fontaines fans.
When this song was out in 1978, I was going through a relationship that was going sour so I could really relate to it at the time. Buzzcocks were a great band, I played the first LP to death, "Another music in a different kitchen" - "Love Bites ", the second LP, was terrific too.

Growing up in the 70’s I was stuck with the kind of music that was all the rage (i.e. Skynyrd) and then - out of the blue - this stuff. Along with Boingo, XTC. Heads, Sparks et al - and I never looked back.
Pete Shelley was born in my hometown of Leigh, Lancashire (now Greater Manchester) - there’s a mural of him on the library car park. Legendary band and an amazing song!

@@bellywood7688 There us a video from the 60's, cant remember who it was but they make it so obvious that theyre not live, the keyboard player even looks at the camera as his part is playing, takes his hands off the keyboard and is just like look no hands lol.
Few days ago I listened to a yt video of someone drumming over this song and when it ended I still heard the song but it was now coming from the bedroom. There the TV was on and the song was under a BBC Iplayer prome. What are the odds.
Has it been 44 years already since I bought 'Singles Going Steady?" Yow! It still gets slapped down on my turntable on a regular basis and is DEFINITELY one of my "Desert Island Discs." I only wish this music had been heard on the radio in the USA!
A really special song, Pete Shelley was such a talent, writing great gay love songs and charting them in those days must've been a huge buzz! This song will never get old.
Still one of my favorite songs ever. I had the pleasure of interviewing Pete and Steve when they played a club on Long Island in ‘79 and they were absolutely delightful.
Ace now that's old I live on the the sweet rd my the beach . I still jump up and down . old folk think I must be strange . they missed out .xxxxxxx I do to shock them make sure they are alive . xxxx some of join in . xx

when I saw them in '89 at One Step Beyond, the bass player was completely high, and at one point in the show either Pete or Diggle looked at him and he just slowly shook his head in a "no" manner, I've never forgotten it. I'm guessing it was acid. The next time they came back Mike Joyce was drumming and they sounded even better.
Around the time this came out they also had an album called Love Bites and I went into my local record store in Camberley and asked the girl if she had love bites. She got all embarrassed but I explained it was by the Buzzcocks and she found me a copy. We chatted, I asked her for a date and we have been married for 40 years now. Brings back great memories.

yep they take influence of the Ramones but pop punk did not become big until 1990s.
Just 'Buzzcocks'
I'm kind of glad they used this in an episode of Scrubs, because as much as I love music of this sort, I never would have found this song.
The first punk band to play love songs. Revolutionary, at the time.
One of the greatest punk rock bands ever. Rip Pete Shelley
most cool people my age are dead. of natural causes.
I wouldn't call them punk rock at all!
@@mrmods7912 You clearly don't know much about music and music history
@@Arthur-xx5msThere is no way that songs like love you more can be classed as punk rock! The buzzcocks sound was unique! Definitely not punk
@@mrmods7912 Melodic Punk!
Crazy this was made in 1978. If a modern indie band came up with this song today it would still sound fresh.
you’re right, this still sounds absolutely great and fresh today

Every time.
All the time! At 47 I should know better! Still think I'm 30!!
We all have xx
But I'm old but would not missed it .might be 50 . I'm still teenage kick's xx
Oh dear - perhaps that says more about you than your former partners? Good luck for next time xx
Finding this song is perhaps the best thing that has happened to me during quarantine.
Wasn't too bad when I was a kid either 😊
To be honest with you. This is the best thing that has happened to you.

Textbook 'how to look cool on the TV' drumming performance. He looks incredible even if he's not really playing.

Classic punk song. Still sounds fresh today.

I think that the allusion was in part to gay love; the "shouldn't have" bit would have been more apropos in 1978.

One of the greatest songs of all time. XXX

John Maher. And what a life he had; he drag raced VW Beetles, ran a performance shop in Scotland, and is now a fairly well known photographer....

I saw them live in Brighton in November 1978. Ended in a riot.
great solo album..RIP
Greatest song to come out of Manchester in my opinion
Original opening line: "You piss on my natural emotions"... Changed for radio play.
I wish it would have stayed in. Shelley was a goddamn genius.
The riff of this song is super catchy. Great band!

I was born 10 years too late! First gig I ever went to was Spear of Destiny 1988 when I was 15. After that came Stone Roses, Mondays etc.... Great but I wish I could have seen late 70's bands but I was just a kid!
Pete Shelley was so adorable! Love this band.
Great lyrics
Saw The Buzzcocks in the mid 90s. Absolutely unbelieveable! A fantastic band. RIP Pete.
We are supporting these legends at the Concorde in brighton in March! Here’s our music video if you wanna hear our sound! Big love and rest in peace to this legend.

The drumming makes the hair on my neck stand up every time I hear this.
RIP Pete, your music was part of my youth.
They learned the art of playing their instruments unplugged
At least nirvana made it funny
LOL-I was just wondering whether this was lip synced! Hahahahahahaha
@@bellywood7688 There us a video from the 60's, cant remember who it was but they make it so obvious that theyre not live, the keyboard player even looks at the camera as his part is playing, takes his hands off the keyboard and is just like look no hands lol.
Yeah except for here 0.59
@@wam44 all acts on top of the pops mimed.
Thanks, Pete!
One of the best songs ever produced, simple.
Glorious.
I get it that they aren't playing but it's cool to see them so young. Saw them live a bunch of times, great show. RIP Pete
Few days ago I listened to a yt video of someone drumming over this song and when it ended I still heard the song but it was now coming from the bedroom. There the TV was on and the song was under a BBC Iplayer prome. What are the odds.
Has it been 44 years already since I bought 'Singles Going Steady?" Yow! It still gets slapped down on my turntable on a regular basis and is DEFINITELY one of my "Desert Island Discs."
I only wish this music had been heard on the radio in the USA!
A really special song, Pete Shelley was such a talent, writing great gay love songs and charting them in those days must've been a huge buzz! This song will never get old.
Still one of my favorite songs ever. I had the pleasure of interviewing Pete and Steve when they played a club on Long Island in ‘79 and they were absolutely delightful.
I was at college with Pete...we went out separate ways but last night i saw them in HK Memories do come real RIP Pete McNeish
I can hear the northern in his voice and I love it
Best song ever ❤
*SIGH* ... Miss you, Pete Shelley.
Ace now that's old I live on the the sweet rd my the beach . I still jump up and down . old folk think I must be strange . they missed out .xxxxxxx I do to shock them make sure they are alive . xxxx some of join in . xx
Hes superior in his interior
what a brilliant......and heartbreaking single this was.
Absolute classic....
Me and my brother Rory loved these
greatest punk guitar band....
I had adolescence to this!
82 folk have no taste! How can you dislike this brilliant song?
Blimey , i had forgotten this song !!!! Thank goodness i found it again 😅😊
Every time I hear this song I smile.A very big thank you Pete
This is the best music on earth !
a song from back in my day.Great music never fade no matter how many years pass.
We are supporting these legends at the Concorde in brighton in March! Here’s our music video if you wanna hear our sound! Big love and rest in peace to this legend.

thats why the 2020s will be one of the most forgettable eras of music, its sad
Why do I love this so much?
Im glad my art teacher recommended me this band
My teacher got me into Bauhaus and The Sound. Don't know why the guy above is so negitive. Some Art teachers has the best taste in music.
Can I recommend, The Jam, and The Specials.
@PoetOnMoet No sorry, ok fair enough.
@@Deadeye1967 lol, i'll check them out, thanks!
I recommend you a band called Joy Division, they were friends with The Buzzcocks and even did a tour together
Great song, great band, great lyrics
Just love everything the Buzzcocks sang....Brill
Soundtrack to my skooldays. Had a bit of a thing for Pete - love that cheeky schoolboy type! ⭐
This song is...❤
The good old Times ! Music Handmade and powerfull ! Greetings from Lüneburg in Germany !
I love how the bass player just doesn't give a shit
when I saw them in '89 at One Step Beyond, the bass player was completely high, and at one point in the show either Pete or Diggle looked at him and he just slowly shook his head in a "no" manner, I've never forgotten it. I'm guessing it was acid. The next time they came back Mike Joyce was drumming and they sounded even better.
@@michaelkennedy5126 lucky :(
Isn’t it lip synced ?
@@jboyxd6573 yeah lmao that's what I meant
Who's the bass player?
The rhythm section here, Maher-Garvey was superb. Shelley a supreme songwriter. just magic.
The buzzcocks,, The jam and the Undertones crafted the best 3 minute pop songs that have not been bested to this Day
And never will be
OH 😮ITS SO GREAT TO HEAR THESE SOUNDS AGAIN XXX
