Nah .. this goes back to the thread we were talking about separating the music from the person. Glitter's just that bit too far. And I say this as someone who went to see one of his Christmas shows at Wembley Arena in the 90s.
Isn't his stuff still used for American football? And one song was used on the TV series Glee?

He was the warm up guy for a kiddies TV programme wasn't he, and he learned how to get the kids going (no pun) and translated that into pop. It was very effective.
Edit: according to wiki, it was Ready Steady Go.

Oh no he wasn't. [feel free to answer in panto fashion] HE WAS A DESPERATE ROCK & ROLL WANNABEE loser in the 1960s - have you heard that Paul Raven shit? I did – who lucked out with a gimmick in the most desperate time for popular music in Great Britain. Put aside his ephebephilia, most of my favourite artistes have very morally dodgy private lives: his music was degenerate goose-stepping rubbish for the sub-teen market, and fortunately I was already in my twenties when he transformed himself into the 'leader'. |

Oh, elaborate away, Adam - surely more entertaining than more attempts to resurrect your pre-teen enthusiasms for dreadful stomping pop tunes. And you know I'm 70 years old: surely you're not so arithmetically challenged as to to be surprised that I was in my twenties when you were in primary school, and have a different take on the music of the 60s and 70s as a result? |

I'm not sure I understand this - must be my age - but since we're swapping info, my grandfathers were born in Rotherhithe and Camden Town, but you don't see me supporting Millwall or the Plumstead Nomads  |
