Graham Gouldman said he was holidaying in Jamaica and while out walking cut between a group of young men engaged in conversation, one of them yelled 'Don't you walk through my words, show some respect', and that's where the idea for the song came from.

The reason the first chorus says "i don't like cricket oh no, i love it" is because at the time the West Indies were the World Champion Cricket team... their fast bowlers were 6'5" plus and bowled the ball at speeds of 150 kms per hour, they were f**in' scary intimidating!

10cc are a great band with several fantastic songs!! 👌👌👏👏

There are so many great tracks full of humour and musical brilliance. The thinking mans pop band in the 70s. My fav was probably ‘Second sitting for the last supper’ with ‘Art for arts sake’ and ‘I’m Mandy Fly me’ close behind. .)

now i understand the MV beiginning where he's walking trying to look cool, it's the "I was concentrating on trucking' right lyrics meaning

Glad you played these guys.very creative

Alan White the great drummer of YES the greatest Prog Rock band in History has died....R.I.P. You may want to react to some of his drumming work of art.

10CC have a heap of good songs. Good Morning Judge is an up-tempo beauty. Cheers Harro 🤘😁

Oh man, forgot all about that one! 👍👍

Another great Review. Thanks Pope. Please Review "I'm Mandy, Fly Me", by 10cc. Keep Rockin'. RONNIE SCOTLAND 🎸🎸

Rubber Bullets, The Worst Band in the World, Lazy Days, How Dare You? and Art For Art's Sake are all great tracks and show how 10cc has many varied styles.

One of my all time favorites from 10cc !! Thanks! {Back in the day I used to sneak this on to mix tapes I'd give to friends .. EVERYONE, no exceptions LOVED it and demanded to know who it was !}

Reggae mon!! That's how it's done. 😃

I strongly recommend listening to 10cc's Feel the Benefit. Fantastic song and also very different from the first two you've reacted to. Cheers!

Lol this takes me back... I know every word and sang it loudly too 😆. What a fantastic song

While I won't say I'm a huge 10cc fan or anything, they're criminally underrepresented on reaction channels, not counting their song, 'I'm Not In Love'. 'Dreadlock Holiday' is one of my favorite songs.

I agree, reaction channels need more 10cc, Supertramp, Dire Straits and Genesis Evberybody's already reacting to Queen, wich is a great band, but the 70's and 80's had many more

Very cool oldie

For a different feel, less poppy, try their longer pieces like Feel The Benefit or One Night in Paris.

Just follow the bass in this song it's killer.

Good morning, Judge!! I didn't do it, I wasn't there.....take a listen to 10cc....lol

Two of these guys were early, big directors of MTV videos and also try a song called "Cry" by the same two guys

Pioneers of the video area were a couple of members 10cc Kevin Godley and Lol Creme.

You've covered their mid and late 70s work. Try Rubber Bullets from their early 70s work and something completely different again! Great band.

BOB MARLEY "BIRTH OF A LEGEND" Is a MUST 💯

Damn I didn't think anyone really remembered this song...

That's a great old song.

They can rock too,check out Silly Love by them,you’ll be headbangin right away bruv.

not just a reggae hit but one of the best if not the best.

The entire Bloody Tourists album is brilliant. This is the only reggae infused track on that album.

Filmed on the tropical beaches of the United Kingdom. LOL

A sad day for Yes fans. Alan White passed away today, Pope😔

Try Lee“ Scratch ” Perry and Linton Kwesi Johnson.

You have to play "one night in paris "

Please watch the video that goes with this, it's fab x

Feel the benefit parts 1,2,3 studio version be the very first too react.

Best 10cc album: Godley and Creme’s L. But all the 10cc albums from the 70s are great

Hey DOPE buy a REAL microphone!
