The awesomely gay video to Pete Townshend's awesomely gay 1980 song "Rough Boys" is up on YouTube! I looked for it a couple of years ago and was disappointed not to find it.

I think I've only seen the video once before today, back when I was quite young. I'm happy to see that my memory didn't deceive me; it really is just that awesomely gay.

Here, have a look:

Just when I thought it couldn't get gayer, there was that bridge with "I'm gonna get inside you." And then rhyming "I wanna buy you leather" with "We can't be seen together". How did I miss this when I was a kid? I would have been ALL OVER IT.

Again I say: !!!

PS, via wikipedia: "For many years Townshend refused to confirm or deny rumours that he was bisexual." Um. OK.

I'm embarrassed to this day at how long it took me, as a young Who/Pete Townshend fan, to figure out Townshend was gaygaygaygaygaygaygay with a side order of gay.
