Glam rock in general doesn't get much airplay beyond "Suffragette City", "All the Young Dudes", and "Ballroom Blitz".

I've heard the T. Rex version of "Get It On" on the radio a few times, but I've heard the Power Station version on the radio a lot of times. I've never been into any glam rock other than the first couple Roxy Music albums.

I only played it for a brief twenty minute period when I first got it but haven't plugged in my amp since. Focusing a lot on the acoustic stuff lately, so I haven't spent enough time getting to know it to form a solid opinion.

I hear Bang A Gong and Jeepster (another in the running for a song everyone likes, surely...) every now and then on my local rock station.

I mean it has some good songs. When I was like ten or eleven it was my favorite Bowie album, but now it's like my seventh or eighth. I guess I do really like the two albums before it (well, "She Shook Me Cold" is one of his worst songs, but other than that), and Aladdin Sane, though, so fair enough.

I was never exposed to glam rock growing up so much so it's only recently i found out Roxy music made that 'more than this' song.

I know that song from lost in translation but i would've never guessed it came from a glam rock band.

Roxy Music were much more than just a glam rock band, so it's not surprising.

I learned that no one likes same songs because every music maniac has at least got one song they hate, and yeah, most songs have got their haters or weren't really noticed ;-;
