T. Rex - Children Of The Revolution

"Children Of The Revolution", as good as it is, was the single to break T. Rex's run of number one singles on the UK singles chart. After four consecutive number ones, "Hot Love", "Get It On", "Telegram Sam" and "Metal Guru", "Children Of The Revolution" only reached number two. This was in 1972, and reflecting upon this, it strikes me that none of these fabulous glam rock singles would have been anywhere near the top of any chart today, so I guess a number two position really is quite good. Classic song it is!
