Subject: Real punk... Buzzcocks - some videos

I got to thinking about these guys the other day, probably because more people seem to be familiar with the covers of their songs (usually in commercials, ugh).
Here's some clips to their videos on YouTube, which I know you can find them yourself, I decided to take the time and filter out the cruft:
What Do I get
Ever Fallen In Love
Orgasm Addict
Promises
I Can't Control Myself
and while you're watching those:
They're together and touring!

Like most of the British punk bands of the mid-70's, they saw a Sex Pistol's performance and decided they had to form a band. One of the first punk bands to establish their own inde label. They also didn't last together long, only three albums.

It's a shame The Buzzcocks never made BIG waves in North America. I love "Ever Fallen in Love", though I sort of prefer the 1986 cover by FYC a bit more
In 1982, Pete Shelley had a Top 10 hit in Canada with "Homosapien". One thing I always remember about "Homosapien" was the video because it's the first and only time I ever saw a Commodore PET computer . lol

Good band. I was introduced to them by the song, "Everybody's Happy Nowadays" as well as its cover by Ash.
