Description: UK import!!!!!! SEX PISTOLS - THE BIGGEST BLOW - VIRGIN RECORDS-VS 22012 ***LOOKS UNPLAYED*** With original inner sleeve!!!! The Sex Pistols started the punk movement in the United Kingdom and inspired punk, post-punk and alternative rock musicians. Their clothing and hairstyles were a significant influence on the early punk image. In 2006, the Sex Pistols were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They refused to attend, calling the museum "a piss stain." Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Sid Vicious' punk rock version of My Way had most of the words changed and the arrangement was sped up. Leonard Cohen: I never liked this song except when Sid Vicious did it..... When Sid Vicious did it, he provided that other side to the song; the certainty, the self-congratulation, the daily heroism of Sinatra's version is completely exploded by this desperate, mad, humorous voice. I can't go round in a raincoat and fedora looking over my life saying I did it my way well, for 10 minutes in some American bar over a gin and tonic you might be able to get away with it. But Sid Vicious's rendition takes in everybody; everybody is messed up like that, everybody is the mad hero of his own drama." The 1986 film Sid and Nancy features a scene where Gary Oldman, portraying Vicious, performs his version of "My Way" while filming the song's music video. Vicious's version appears in Martin Scorsese's 1990 film Goodfellas, where it plays over the end credits.
