I was 15 ! Happy years!

Beautiful. Eyes full of tears every time I watch this performance.

I remember being a freshman in high school and hearing about his death and at first said ,"no, that can't be THE Marc Bolan" they are talking about?! sadly and sure enough it was and I felt a sense of loss within me. Weird but his music hooked me when I was young and it sounds even better in 2015!! Now that's music.

I gotta hear this again...he's mesmerizing!

I didn't plan to gift myself this T-Rex Extravaganza here on YouTube. Some might call the (7+) hours decadent (and who could disagree?) and irresponsible (So what? My chores will keep.) But, the unexpected joy and attitude-adjustment it's providing this 50 year old music lover is great therapy. And, oh-so entertaining! I'm more knowledgeable and in awe of Marc Bolan than ever now. He has that English charm and wit I adore, with a truth to his answers in interviews and clips that brings me a certain, instant relief. While that may sound an extreme comment to you, reader; I will add that my Dearest Dad (RIP) was a Londoner, who had always been the most authentic (and witty and charming) chap I know. I am truly missing any one of those qualities in people, especially lately. But, back to T-Rex....I'm glad I took extra time to learn more about Marc; I hope I get another opportunity to do it all again! The world was robbed by his early death. Oh, maybe one more song....

@tatia641 a young lad who used to visit marc with his mum wore sneakers which were called baseball boots in england at the time and he used to run around wildley in marcs house ricocheting off of things hence spaceball (baseball) ricochet

There is no justice in the world. Rupert Murdoch, Maggie Thatcher, Pinochet, Reagan, Nixon, Kissinger live beyond their 80's. Marc, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye all dead before their time.

As I've noticed that there are a lot of real T.Rex experts here on youtube, I would like to know what the title of this song means? Since English is not my native language I looked up the words in the dictionary but couldn't find them. I know that Marc often uses metaphors but can't make out what he means by spaceball ricochet. Maybe someone can help me?

Thanks for posting this, I think it is simply beautiful and I love it very much. I was a big fan of T.Rex back in the seventies and had some of their albums, but somehow I have missed out this song up to now.
