    You can see in the video in 66 that kids in Britain were already wearing their hair long. This song, Hendrix, Zeppelin, ACDC, Soundgarden, I went from each in that order. Since 1966. Actually 64 with the Beatles.

    My cousin worked in his dad's store and got paid $10 a week. I didn't have a dime to my name. My cousin was 11, and I was 10 years old. The only music I grew up on was the country music my father played, stuff from the 1950's like Hank Snow, Lefty Frizzell, Hank Williams. By the time The Troggs released Wild Thing, my cousin had quite a collection of 45's. I'll never forget listening to Wild Thing on 45 for the first time when my cousin played it on his record player. I did not know what to think of this, and didn't quite know if I really could accept the song, and what the hell was a band named The Troggs? My cousin let me borrow the 45, so I took it home, kind of feeling a little bit lost, thinking the music was a little weird, and that I didn't fit in with this style. Little did I know how this song grew on me as I played it over and over. My cousin had all the latest hits on 45s, and I am grateful to this day that he let me borrow whatever I wanted out of his large stacks of 45s. There was no other way for me to get my hands on the music of the 60's. God Bless You, Steve and R.I.P.

    As a teen in the sixties I was living with my parents who were in the RAF at Northolt. I was crazy about the Troggs and if they ever appeared within travelling distance I would go to their gigs. I looked up my diaries and these are the venues I saw them performing - 21 May 1967 Starlite Greenford , 7 March 1967 ,Adelphi Slough, 6 May 1966, Town Hall High Wycombe 21June 1966 Starlite Ballroom Greenford 17 July 1966 Marquee London 26 July 1966. In the autumn of 1967 I had met a Swedish girl and on a visit to Sweden I saw them there in Stockholm in October 1967, Such happy memories

    I normally don't listen to rock and roll music but I like this song for the following reasons:
    1. The camera man physically follows them and the crowd isn't constantly screaming in joy, which leads me to...
    2. It's at a subway station of all places.
    3. It's a short, quieter rock and roll song
    4. It came out the year my father was born

      They filmed this for Swedish television show "Popside", broadcast 29 December 1966. The station is Odenplan Metro station in Stockholm. The theme for that program was trains and the episode was titled "Denna gång på nytt spår" ("This time on the right tracks"). The Troggs would shoot one more train related video for that episode with "I Can't Control Myself", where they're riding in a green line metro carriage. Another clip was shown in the epsiode, "Anyway You Want Me", but this was unrelated to trains and featured the Troggs sitting in a hotel bed. The Small Faces also appeared in the episode, performing their hit "Hey Girl" aboard a Stockholm tram and their big hit "All Or Nothing" on Norrmalmstorg

      @@VirreFriberg Thanks for that info - I was really puzzled about the location & I was hoping someone would know. I thought maybe Holland, but the metro makes it clear. My dad brought me back a model of one of those trains after visiting Stockholm on a business trip. Presumably all the sound was dubbed as otherwise you'd be hearing the trains arrive & depart. I can't imagine the authorities allowing anything like that today - performing next to moving trains, health & safety risks blah blah. Not to mention distracting the driver with those LOUD suits!
