Johnny Rotten’s Still My Hero is in the YouBloom Music Awards

Johnny Rotten’s Still My Hero is currently entered in the YouBloom Music Awards song contest but it was originally recorded back in 2002. It is a tribute song to John Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten, and his former band The Sex Pistols. The song also mentions David Icke and his conspiracy theory that alien Reptilian shape-shifters run the world. Icke claims that the Royal Family and many political leaders are actually reptile beings who only appear as humans. The Sex Pistols song God Save The Queen has the line “She ain’t no human being” with reference to the British monarch.

I recorded the song backed by a new girl group called The Somethings. They had met me at a gig I played in Aldershot and had become my fans and were inspired to start their own group. I decided it would be a good idea to have them as my backing musicians for a recording of my new song that had been written to take advantage of the publicity afforded by it being 25 years since the Jubilee, which was when the Sex Pistols had their controversial hit God Save The Queen. Their song was thought to be so offensive that it was banned by the BBC and independent radio stations throughout the UK. Although it should have been a number one hit it was not recognised as this and Top of The Pops would not include the song.
Earlier this year I got as far as the Semi Finals of the YouBloom Song Contest, as it was then known, but didn’t get any further. I thought I would try again and this time Johnny Rotten’s Still My Hero is my entry.
