Pretty Vacant - The Sex Pistols




I had heard so much outrage about the Sex Pistols but never really got to see them until this clip came onto the TV during a Top of the Pops show. I was gobsmacked at first. Not impressed at all. My thoughts were more like, "Is that it?" However, after the dust settled I found that in some strange way, the band was compelling. I was never a fan but I did like the rebellious tones of the time. Today they are remembered fondly by us happy grandparents that were once wannabe teenage rebels. I was 16 when this song came out and it reminds me of being sixteen again.
