Few weeks ago, I bought myself my first cadillac. 1967 Sedan Deville. Driving it home, blasting this song, damn you just can't beat that feeling. I am only 19 years old, never believed that it would be possible to own an old caddy being this young. Dreaming of buying a 1959 coupe someday, gotta work hard for that still.

Just bought my first caddy to. My first car. First song I played was the clash version.

I've got the man that played the drums on this song sitting in my living room now. He name is 'Big' Al Alison :)

In case no one else has mentioned it, Vince was the inspiration for David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust. And that caused an unexpected revival of Vince's career in the 1970's and 80's.
