The Punk Song That Made The Queen FURIOUS in 1977

This Song Was BANNED Across Britain - But Still Hit #1

In 1977, the British government, radio stations, and major retailers tried to erase a punk anthem—only to turn it into a legend.

This is the story of “God Save the Queen” by the Sex Pistols: the song that attacked the monarchy, was banned across the country, and still sold 250,000 copies—becoming one of the most controversial #2 hits in UK chart history. From blacklists and riots to boat arrests and slashed vinyl, this wasn’t just a protest—it was a cultural earthquake.
