Troggs - Strange movies (glam proto punk) 

If T Rex had released this, would've made the top 10. Criminally underpromoted.

My mum took me to see The Troggs at Salisbury Arts Centre when I was 12. They played this song and I didn't know where to look.

MAN, the Troggs still HAD IT!

I saw the Troggs playing Live at a club in Yeovil in the late 1980s and they sang this - took years to find a copy!

LUV REG!! Great Lyrics! Too Cool/Funny...Great tune....Uhh...

Man, what a great tune. Love the guitar sounds.

my friends and bandmates (two of them) went to see a Troggs gig at the Whiskey (in hollywood) in the late 70's. they came back with this dazed expression on their face (one day later mind you) -- "imagine if the Troggs had a caveman playing guitar." "and then they replaced him with Chris Britton -- who made the caveman (that he had replaced) LOOK LIKE EINSTEIN." apparently they had laughed hysterically like "omg can you believe this shit, this cannot exist" through half of the entire Whiskey A Go Go set. mr B must have had an utterly unique collection-of-one caveman style assaulting and aubusing his instrument, for them to have their minds fuckkked in such a way (without psychedelics). judging by the Troggs recordings A to Z through the 60's...maybe he was still struggling with "the bar chord thing" hell yeah why not. "NOTES AND CHORDS MEAN NOTHING TO ME" -- red cross/redd kross LA

Stomp! and Bang! the Dance Floor!!!

Some of you younger folk may not know this, but The Troggs were on the 1980 floor show Midnight Special doing this. Cool as can be!!!

when this was released as a single, it got lot of airplay on radio 1, but when they realised it was about watching pornographic films, the airplay dried up- its a fantastic single-still got it on vinyl

powerful stomping , still rocking

WOW!!! Reminds me of early Alice Cooper.

Awesome

This song is a sound of the Flamin’ Groovies/T. Rex hybrid!

Reg R.I.P;

The guitar riff reminds me very much of T. Rex's 20th Century Boy, which came a bit after this. Hmmm.

what kind of system is mindblowing!?

👍

Love it

ah shit this is jamming. I wonder if Devo got inspiration from this for one of their early cuts I Need A Chick.

So naughty! ❤

Kool !

@friendlier Indeed - sadly Mr Bolan isn't around more - otherwise one could have asked;) Thanks!

ha, this is heaps perverse. I love it! Did the Troggs release any else like this?

Where can I find this version? It's the best!

How odd, I have this on several compilation albums, and it's a rather more understated mix. this is quite different indeed.

i like troggs special voice

Last night I saw a, uh, strange movie, uh uh Everyone was in bed Last night, it made me, uh, feel groovy, uh uh Watching things that they did There was Bill and Sue Jake and Sid and Mandy too They went uh uh uh uh uh uh uh, well! Sid and Mandy they were, uh, getting randy, uh uh When Sue and Bill they joined in Jake was waiting and uh anticipating uh, uh Started smoothing their skin Then just to ease the strain They all formed a daisy chain They went uh uh uh uh uh uh uh, well! Playin' with your friend is just a bluff You got to get it in but don't be rough I know that it ain't easy But it's the only thing to please me When I hear my girl who's shoutin' "that's enough!" Waaoh! My friend Cindy, she said uh Got it in me uh uh to phone up Josie and Lou No hesitatin', we were, uh, dialing, dating, uh uh Everyone that we knew Now if you've never made your friend This of course I recommend Cause we went uh uh uh uh uh uh uh well! Waaoh! It was a strange movie, uh uh It was a strange movie, uh uh It was a strange movie, uh uh It was a, uh uh, uh uh, uh uh, Uh uh uh uh uh oh no, oh no, aaawh! Well!

Probably the 1st rock song about porn.

I think Rob Zombie took this sound and went with it

Sounds like The Sweet.

Looking for this for some time. Was it ever released on an album?

Toooo Funny....Uhh...

This pre-dates the Stooges and Led Zeppelin.(original version)

the slowed down cheesy version they eventually released and played was a travesty. if they had only stuck with this version the world could’ve had more powerful raw troggs songs outta the 70’s whoever made that call fucked up.
