Power Station, The - Get It On (Bang A Gong) Lyrics

The great TT is driving that beat on those drums...that goes all the way TOO your spine....lol

Those drums sound like the pistons in a 550 hp Caterpillar in a 359 PETERBILT running thru the night.....Tony Thompson is driving that Rig like it's a 100 mph.....LOL

What kind of truck?

OK SUSAN STOCKHAMMER - GET THE GROVE ON...

Anthony Terrence "Tony" Thompson Nov15, 1954 –Nov 12, 2003... What a driving force...

This video hints the world trade centre would be hit 16 years before it actually happened.

Better than TREzx did guitar is awsome

I give it a1.3 out of 5 star rating.

When T-Rex, the addicted to love guy, and Duran Duran collide to kick you hard in the face with a balls-out version of Get It On.

I'm 💦💦💦

There is something embarrassingly cringey about this video....

This Power Station album is just so amazing, funky, gritty and totally rocks! It was the tape that is always in my bag.

They suck

I'M A 60 OLD MAN AND I CAN TELL YOU IT'S TOO HARD TO MAKE A CHOISE BETWEEN MARC BOLAN AND ROBERT PALMER... HAPPY NEW 2020 YEAR AND GREETINGS FROM GUADALAJARA, JALISCO. MÉXICO 🇲🇽

I love my 80s, soooo glad I’m an 80s kid. The shit, and that’s what it is,SHIT, that is spewed out like diarrhea and vomit from someone dieing of an STD doesn’t compare to 80s music🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Underrated band! ♡♡♡

I never thought 2 guys from Duran Duran could rock like this. I was wrong

The two Taylor brothers are really rockin it here !!

This is one of the coolest music videos ever!

I remember when this song came out, I was thinking, "WHO IS THIS...ITS AWESOME!!!!!'"...should've known it was Robert and the boys...all around talent

loved the song.....never cared for video....now that i watch for first time in many years...it is scary to see world trade towers and planes and the girls burning head....

Identical comments as the Some Like It Hot video I just watched.

I remember hearing this version for the first time on a Miami Vice episode when I was a teenager in the 80s

John Taylor is so hot; it should be a crime!

Sounds as great now as it did in 1985. And I never knew at the time it was a remake until later. This originally was made in 1971 or so, making me 5 years old then.

The drummer for the old disco group, Chic. Outstanding example of how drums and percussion can control and from the music in contrast to melodic and harmonic elements, which are so often taken for granted. Arguably one of the greatest Rock 'n Roll songs of all time

Hair groups my ass...

Reminds me of cruising the strip in Va. Beach back in the 80’s on the weekends with the windows down

Andy Taylor.... Always thought he was a great guitar player. Liked his solo stuff too

That "wicked riff" @3:31!

Best believe all 3 of those LIMEYS had to bring their best game on they were in the presence of greatness MR.TONY THOMPSON.bow down its clear whos running the groove

Viva greatest 80's !!!

WAY better than the T-Rex version. Is this blasphemy? :D

I hear that. Electric Warrior is a hard album to mess with.

My favourite cover of any song

Still listening to this on January 3, 2020 ❤

You beat me to it

I went to see the power station in my at Jones beach in 1985 I knew John Taylor and duran

Nice cover

For me can never match the original masterpiece of marc bolan....but nevertheless a supreme effort.the bass guitar is something to behold.wonderful stuff really!!

I grew up on Duran Duran and I never appreciated how good a bass player John Taylor is until I learned the bass..this guy can play his ass off.

John and Andy Taylor the bad boys!😎

*Fucking killer cover. Stands the test of time. Palmer and the fellas just absolutely fucking owned this bitch.*

0:16- Intro to Gabe & Chewy on 94.5 ESPN.

Yorkshire Lad Robert Palmer unique great voice great singer RIP, The Hard Hitting Great Drummer Tony Thompson RIP, and my Favorite Duran Duran Member Andy Taylor The Geordie Axe Man. Real Musicians!!!

hey, they had the twin towers AND airplanes... omg... they knew !!!!

More guitar riffs like this, please. Thanks.

The GREAT reunion of artists!!!

Robert Palmer always had hot chicks on his music videos, I miss MTV 80s

Never noticed the omen here of the World Trade Centers and planes buzzing around them.

Such a brilliant song and band.

Oh damn that's a brother rockin them drums like that

That bass line pounds you like a fully automatic howitzer--this number is a gut puncher

I don't always listen to The Power Station, but when I do the whole neighborhood does as well.

Radio Free Babylon 'Coffee With Jesus' sent me here. Jesus wants to bang a gong.

Robert wasn't Bolan, but no one could be. Good cover.

Rock on!

Do I dare say that I like this version better than the T Rex original.

That bass tho!

Those drums. That bass! They rocked AF

What a glorious video. Start to stop!

I hope they play that when Boris Johnson delivers Brexit!

@ 2:42 - I bet that girl was telling all her friends "I'm going to be in a rock video!"

I like my REVENGE served with a heavy dose of hate, VIOLENCE and silence.....

yes indeed skip the unwarranted ad. I am conditioned to that with growing up on TV but piss off here post media

JOHN TAYLOR.. ❤

Badass & timeless. What a magical time for music. Today's stuff doesn't compare

It's good. But all these years on, I still marvel at the T Rex sound. Some big lessons to be learned there.

That was a jam, I remember listening to it all the time when I was 16!

Strap it on. Yorkshire Bob died in a hotel room.

Chic meets Glam Rock Meets New Wave.

Imademo. kaxtukoiidesu.

Tony Thompson. One the best drummers ever! RIP

John Taylor's Funky Bass👍

RIP Robert.......

Bad Ass Song still!!

@Isaiah 53. What you mean is, I disagree.

T rex did a version of this song but I much prefer power station 😆

T Rex is the original artist of it!

Flat and uninspiring. Nobody felt like they were committed. Terrible cover, just going through the motions.

A video dumbass and they all shredded even the late Robert Palmer......God rest his soul.....Listen to all of Robert Palmer's songs ......The man had true soul and could rock like no other....

spizzardo says who justin beaver?

Good song

Molto più rock rispetto alla versione originale e molto meno glam davvero. Marc Bolan approverebbe presumo.

Good cover and video! Great work

Btw....Osama Bin Laden must have been a fan of the band. Look at the planes going down in flames in front of the WTC......creepy.

Tony Thompson is a monster!

Theres a toilet?

Very gritty and powerful!

I like how Robert batts his eyes after Andy's solo, as if to say, Not bad Huh......

I forgot just how dirty Andy's guitar was on this. They all complimented each other so well, rock on.

I still enjoy their LP!

Bang a gong and Fu$# the one world Satanic government !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

F*cking Amazing!! All outstanding musicians!! Great drumming back this song!! RIP Tony

billy elliot

Bad ass song, Robert Palmer was a pimp!

Hey guys, remember when videos were fun and interesting?

God bless Tula and his/her legs...x

Thank you, John.❤️

A time when men loved women and were not gender confused and did not take sissy hormones and did not chop their penis off !

John Taylor never disappoints. He is so talented. Andy Taylor so talented and Robert Palmer is so awesome. Love this music. I ❤ John Taylor.

For REAL.

Ahhh yes back when political correctness didn't exist. Good time's in America

For those of you who thought Duran Duran was all glam......fu

WHAT A FUCKING BADASS BAND!!! YES
