"next month audiences will watch a rendition of Glitter's 1973 hit Do You Wanna Touch Me sung by Hollywood star Gwyneth Paltrow." What a Top Song does the Glee Teacher wanna touch the younger dancer kids ass? It was debated on Ch5 Wright Stuff he claims Paedo Gary will make 100K on the rights of his song. Of course when that track was made he had not been arrested for sleeping with child girls. Last edited by arista; 12-03-2011 at 11:12 AM. |

I mean, if they're going to sing a Glitter song, why does it have to be THAT one - it's so absolutely inappropriate

Who cares? There are thousands upon thousands of other ****ty songs they could have chosen from that would have been just as "appropriate" without lining the pockets of a convicted paedophile, and giving him even a nanosecond of publicity.

It's a cover of the Joan Jett song, not the gary Glitter version.
Typical British press whipping something up out of nothing.

The Joan Jett (1981/82) version was a cover of the Glitter(1973) original song. He co wrote the song therefore he gets the royalties. |

As usual the Americans wrongly and arrogantly claiming ownership of something - It would be laughable if it weren't so tragic.

I find it hard to care. Just think of all the royalties that were paid to wifebeaters like Ike Turner and James Brown from all the hip hop artists that sampled their songs.

Oh hello to the Patricks of this thread.
It's a tasteless choice of song but I'm not gonna get my bits in a twist over it. |

Maybe, but that doesn't negate the objection that the person benefitting is a convicted paedophile. There would at least be some justice if the royalties were to go to his many victims.

Remembering Kerry

Yes,I absolutely agree with you on that and I am sure on his musical work that could easily be arranged that his portion of the royalties is siezed and used for as you say victims or relevant other good causes.

The obvious thing is that this thread is about Gary Glitter...... hence the reason people are making comment on his song being used in Glee. Angus58 has as much right to add her thoughts and comments to this thread whether you like it or not, without being told by you, what to do.
