Roger Taylor - A Nation Of Haircuts (Official Lyric Video)

After the tragic death of Freddie Mercury, Roger returned to his solo career with 1994's Happiness?, an album on which he explored the theme of "dealing with life and looking for happiness". The success of the album prompted further tours of the UK and Italy. Then came perhaps his most potent album, Electric Fire, which clearly showed Taylor as an acute observational songwriter. Rich in contemporary reflections on life, the album was full of attention-grabbing songs tackling thought-provoking and sometimes challenging issues — national obsolescence, domestic violence, and poverty, among them. One track, People On Streets, was inspired by visits Roger made to India and the inequalities he witnessed in the fortunes of that country's vast population. Never shy to express himself, several super- rich and powerful world figures get name checked in the song.
Roger returned to his solo career in late 2009 with the release of the single The Unblinking Eye. A new solo album emerged in 2013, the critically acclaimed Fun On Earth, plus a comprehensive box set called The Lot which covered all his solo material and work with The Cross. In 2017 Roger released a stand alone video single called ‘Journey’s End’ that reached No.1 in the iTunes Video Chart in several different countries.

About Roger Taylor:
Roger Taylor's contribution to Queen was far more than just the drummer. He wrote massive hit singles; 'Radio Ga Ga,' 'A Kind Of Magic,' 'Breakthru', 'Invisible Man', 'Heaven for Everyone' and 'These Are Days of Our Lives.' Plus fan favourites like 'I'm In Love With My Car' and 'Tenement Funster.' In 1977 Roger became the first member of Queen to launch a solo career with the release of the single I Wanna Testify. His solo album Fun In Space followed in 1981, and was succeeded by 1984's rock-based Strange Frontier. Both LPs reached the Top 30. In 1987 Roger formed his own band The Cross, in which after more than 20 years he finally resumed the role of lead singer. The Cross released three distinctive albums and toured extensively in the UK and Europe.

Roger Taylor - A Nation Of Haircuts (Official Lyric Video)

[MrSoulauctioneer]

its the rant of an almost 50 yr old punk rocker that played in a hard rock band matured with their audience. The song is one of the best condemnations of modern western society. and its as true in 24 as it was in 94. Appearances cover everything.

[ІгунінДмитро]

There is a thin line that's hardly can be caught, but excellently did by author. One of my favourite.

[김석영-hc]

His description is always outstanding. A man of letters without unnecessities. A modern version of Pentateuch.

[franhowell]

I salute you Roger 😎
You're so fucking cool!!!!

[michaelreed]

Hard to believe that the same man who wrote this has just come out strongly in favour of vaccine ‘passports’.

Rebellion erodes with age I suppose.

We still love him though. He was great in Newcastle last night.

[heatherqualy]

This song has grown on me over the last year or so. I thought it was interesting, then pretty good, now it’s one of my favourites. These lyrics are fantastic, and the guitar riff is so darn catchy!

WHY IS THIS SONG SO FUCKING GOOD?!
ROGER, WHAT A TALENT. 🌸

[hippiejane]

OMG, I love it. Spending a lot of time on YouTube during self-isolation.

[someoneelse]

Not to burst bubbles but this would have made a cool Queen song

[suihanki]

can anyone tell me what 'check you threads check your cred' means please? i don't really understand what he meant on that phrase with my poor english skill. thank you.

[cassgarsa]

Roger is so talented... His music never gets old.
