It was banned. But the BBC would have banned pretty much anything in those days. Can't imagine how Pinky & Perky slipped through the net The band had a bit of growing up to do. When they recorded this, The Beatles had already released Rubber Soul, Revolver and Sgt Pepper. Not for me this one, sorry.

Pretty lame being banned compared with other suggestive innuendo in songs which WAS allowed during that era. “Walk on the wild side” anyone???😛

There's only a few pre MKGS songs I like, none I love
This is one of them! The instrumental bits are very likeable and sound unmistakably Quoish

Long time no hear. But it's lovely. Charming in a naïve way

Should re do these under the Status Quo Brand. Make them sound a bit more like modern Quo and re release.
NO dont, was only joking.

"You like it when i tickle you" - was that what got it banned?
Or was it - "It gets so hot, i just don't know what....to do" ?

"You like it when i tickle you" - was that what got it banned? Or was it - "It gets so hot, i just don't know what....to do" ? I wouldn't say it was a particular line, but the lyrics as a whole. Just to look at the chorus: A bit suggestive ahah the whole lyrics are a bit suggestive.
