This song is eternal and actual. I played it last Saturday, in a show, for more than 100 people.

Troggs had no money for ad campaign, his first single was scheduled for release on mid 1966, so the guys went to the tube performing live "Wild Thing", in London, and everyone got stunned, with the presentation. The public tought they went crazy, nobody in this era was so creative, cos with money u can do everything. So the notice was cracking up in radio stations in just minutes and newspapers covered as they cud, the creative releasing . Thank Troggs for being so cool and genious.

Как прекрасно и немного наивно это далеко ушедшее и близкое прошлое! Какая была музыка, и где хоть что-то отдаленно похожее сейчас!

One of my favourite songs back in the day; I was 12 years old in 1965. God Rest Reg's soul. These songs will live on forever!

The Troggs’ “Wild Thing” is a cornerstone of everything that is 1960s classic rock.  It’s a song that surely every garage rock band has played at some time in their existence.
