seriously, I think it's everybody's hobby to go back in the vaults and listen to sounds that you may not have known at the time... it's called 'listening to music'@thesunbau

Re:joriszsz You're actually not that far off. One of the first things Bolan said to the band when he presented the song to them was it had a Jailhouse Rock feel to it I think I read somewhere.

There is an alternative version of Desdemona with alternative lyrics "Why do you have to lie" and completely remixed.It's available on the 1978 Words And Music double album compilation which covers Marc's 1967-71 output.

I love how Bolan completely steals this song with his back up vocals.

I had that lyric 'pick up skirts and fly' in my head all day today, love it

Its so odd hearing such an iconic voice on backup vocals, a rare treat and great to hear Marc's musical evolution.

I always wear leggings or thick tights under my skirts so it's OK...

I've got the single in it's original picture sleeve and still in excellent condition. Rare record now. They use to play this song a lot at the Locarno in Bristol and that is when I bought it, 1967. Great record, should have been a big hit but it wasn't. Apparently the band weren't that great live and one of them was very good at fainting.
