@@acbenepe No it's a Jerry Nolan & Walter Lure song which didn't make it onto The Heartbreakers' L.A.M.F. album but it did appear on their 1979 album 'Live At Max's Kansas City' and the early Yonkers demos when Richard Hell was still in the band. I always preferred Sid's version to the Heartbreakers version. It's actually Jerry Nolan playing drums on this Sid Sings version. Nancy Spungen said on that cable TV show with Sid and Stiv Bators that Sid's plan was to release his next single with The Idols backing him. Unfortunately it all went pear shaped before that happened. Sid in a band with the New York Dolls rhythm section of Nolan and Kane looks good on paper. But would he have been able to get it together to write an albums worth of original songs and if so would they have been any good?. Listening to the Idols' only single and the London Cowboys cd. That might give you an idea of where it could have gone.
One may think it but it was no act. Sid had a very natural charisma, look, and attitude. That he brought to the band and people noticed. Sid often garnered more attention from the crowds. Sadly, we'll never know what indelible mark he would've went on to make on music. At least we have these videos. Haunting as they may be.
What a character. Sid most likely was the truest punk there ever was...he exuded the attitude, look and certainly the lifestyle that punk rock truly was.

In 1987 or 1988 I showed my Parents The Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle it was an Culture-Shock my Dad said" this has nothing to do with real Music they are"Psychopaths" and "Drug-Adicts"😂 I told my Dad I love their Music😅.
I neither loved nor hated him. Just kind of felt sorry for him. He was just a confused kid that got in way over his head and paid the final price for it. I’ve known many others like him over the years.
Be in Peace Sid Vicious, without passing cloth to you or to anyone, but your childhood was very bad with you, Sid Vicious, needed a lot of help and had little "It". But it became a legend.

@@howiseeit5326 he probably didn't kill her Mick jagger or Keith Richards I think was willing to pay for his defense it was clear to a lot of people he was framed
@Tie Shoe Sid was at Johnny`s house and he tried to play with the hamster and the hamster bit him on the hand so Sid (or Simon as he was actually named) screamed and shouted at Johnny..."That Sid is really f*cking vicious!!" and thus the legend was born.
I never saw this video before or heard this song. Gotta say it's one of Sid's best. He sings better than he plays bass, that's for sure. Gotta love the Pistols.
Steve Jones and Paul cook were decent musicians and John Lydon went on to form the highly acclaimed Public Image Limited. People like to present Syd as inept and true Steve had to overdub a lot of his bass, but before Sex Pistols he was drummer in several bands , including Siouxsie and the Banshees
1:26 Old French guy watched The Untouchables "What you bring to a fight ..you do it the Chicago way ... he pulls out a flick knife, you pull out a baguette.".
He was only a kid being used by the celebrity handlers. MM & EMI turned him into some sort of antiestablishment antihero!! Remember, 90% of his career he was a teenager! A kid. God rest his soul. ✌️😇
Они им воспользовались, сделали наркоманом и убили подростка ради денег. И никто его жизнь и здоровье не защитил, им только и нужно было чтобы он себя убивал, покупали ему наркотики и давали деньги. Все ради развлечения публики и прибыли.
I thought it was Malcolm goading him on to constantly “be outrageous” and Nancy feeding both his ego and the monkey on his back copious amounts of dope and praise (“You’re too good for these guys Sid. You need to front your own band. I’ll manage you”). Besides the usual marketing tactics, the record labels didn’t have a whole lot to do with shaping his image.

Take a chance on me
I didn't know this was a MV till I saw the lyrics..... I'm dumb lol
move over Dylan
Typical lyrics from Needles Nolan and Walter Lure. This wouldn't get on TOTP's either 😂😂😂
@@twistedspanner this isn't Nolan's lyrics lol Sid changed it to be a junkie song
Beautiful poetry😂🥰👽🤗
A cultural figure of dystopia....its funny when I saw him walking through that arcade in Paris, I remembered that I was there in 1994. What a life. A denouement in the Chelsea Hotel and then slipped into the unknown in Greenwich Village in 1979. The only definition of life come from Quentin Crisp, " Life is the funny thing that happens to you on the way to the graveyard " 💀🏛🌻
he shoves that dessert in her face, couldn't stop laughing, oh man
Sid was and is the definition of Punk
True
And he's dead.
LMAO !! Dont be offended, but you're an idiot.
Im still dumbfounded at your ridiculous statement!
How about Dee Dee Ramone johnny thunders Jerry Nolan Iggy pop
He was complete one off , fantastic track off of Sid Sings
SId, never grows older
We were a few months apart in age and I noticed that. Where did the young girl I used to be go?
Best song of 2020 so far.
and 2022
Great video sid is the best :)
Who needs talent, when you got a great IMAGE!!
True, he supposedly wasn't too gifted as a bass player, but he could carry a tune - as this track proves.
The Stu Sutcliffe of Punk.
And then 3 years later… MTV goes on the air. Go figure.
This is the greatest thing I've ever seen.

ronny raygunz You need to live a little mate...

I love how people think there free these days. Growing up in the 70s and 80s we had a great time. These days if you scratch your arse in public you get arrested. 🙄😏😉
I never heard this song. Thanks for sharing this video! Sid was Sid and he did it his way.
Love every second ❤️
