Yes... brilliant voice and sweet person, in every sense of the word...I wonder what level of cruelty it would have taken to beat and kick him so brutally as to ruin some of his vocal cords forever...Now he's in a place that only love and light, has for boundaries...RIP Brian (and Mick and Steve)❤
I do not dare to write which was for me the best band back then... But maybe this fact makes it weight much heavier, when I say how much I liked from some time later on the Sweet. Yes, I own their vinyls, since my youth. And the older I get, the more I see how brillant they have been. Their songs with these incredible great singing between Brian and Steve resemble only Queen. I am so sad that back then all was speaking poise ed and we were told we had to decide for one band. I do not want to miss my memories, cannot say I had decided wrong back then, but I just love Sweet. It makes me sad that two members had to leave us so very young. Be blessed, you all. Greetings from Germany! :)
I saw SLADE and many others...LIVE IN CONCERT!... SWEET were much BETTER than those groups you have mentioned.., they were easily as good as THE WHO or DEEP PURPLE. By 1976 they had evolved into a heavy rock group.. the drummer in particular was incredible live... like a CARL PALMER!!
Sweet meine Herzbuben ❤️seit 50 Jahren. Sie waren genial und wurden total unterschätzt. 🎤🎶🥁🎸 RIP Brian meine Lichtgestalt ever💓💓💓💓💓💓, Mick und Steve. Ihr seid unvergessen, ich vermisse Euch❤️❤️❤️
They might not have enjoyed it because it wasn't theirs. They just delivered the tune. That said. I really think Brian enjoyed this one. His face says it all.
Я не знаю, кто и как относится к The Sweet? НО! На постсоветском пространстве великий Брайан Фрэнсис Коннолли, останется ещё на многие десятилетия кумиром миллионов, если не миллиардов. Этот шотландский блондин пел и не подозревал, что завоюет сердца во многих Странах Мира! Бывший СССР и Страны на постсоветском пространстве помнят тебя - Brian Francis Connolly!
That's a nice statement. It goes to show that the politicians are responsible for hate and war. Ordinary Russian people, no different to Ordinary people the world over. Hello to you from England.
The Sweet have belonged to the best bands on this planet.Their early tracks are fabulous, their glam rock songs are brilliant and so are their self-penned songs.
+Kodiak and Grizzly Bears Agree 100% - Brilliantly put! I love the band's style too, they were so talented yet never took themselves too seriously and always looked like they were having so much fun!
The thing about these guys is that they are seriously addictive: you listen to them once, then you can't do without them, without feeling a sense of unease or lack of something if you don't listen to one of their songs, at least once a day...
Brian, Mick, and Steve are probably enjoying a couple drinks, jamming out, being wild, and just making up for lost time up there in heaven. Miss you guys!
Yeah, Little Willy was the first single that remotely sounded like the live band. You could actually hear the guitar on it on that one.... But these earlier singles (most of which were not released in the US, where I am) were indeed catchy. And I'm sure the guys appreciated the fact that they were getting known because of songs like this one.
Brian had a lovely voice. Love this song. My oldest boy is a Joe too so I played this song for him when he was a baby lots of times. This and Wig Wam Bam which is on my top ten list of songs I want at my funeral one day.
you know what i love about glam rock.?They always are having a good time,i discovered sweet in 1978 i was just 5.Then i reconnect with the sweet in 1989 with a vhs that brought out.I still i have saved a lots of 7 inch singles i collected by working in a charity shop volunteering.Brian was my 1st rock idol and glam rock still lives on.from shaz in the uk.
I do not know who and how to relate to The Sweet? BUT! In the post-Soviet space, the great Brian Francis Connolly will remain for many decades the idol of millions, if not billions. This Scottish blonde sang and had no idea that he would win hearts in many Countries of the World! The former USSR and the Countries in the Post-Soviet space remember you-Brian Francis Connolly!
O very sad how Brian's life began, and even sadder how it ended.😪 Rest in Peace Steve Priest. He (Steve had the cutest smile EVER) Such a GREAT GROUP! Only One left Andy. Must be very sad for him, like the Bee Gees, Only one left.
Sweet are the kind of band you remember from the Seventies, and you listened to their great music at the time, then you bump into them in a theatre in Hastings and realise what lovely, talented guys they were, who made your life better. I was there at the time but only now I realise what Steve Priest contributed to Sweet's showmanship, the Sweet myth.
their music knew no boundaries from the early glam songs to their heavy stuff in the mid 70s to their mature mellow stuff in late 70s early 80s. it's hard to believe it's the same band sometimes. Simply the best truly magic!!
That's the beauty of the Sweet. You get 4 bands for the price of one. If you don't like one type of music, then they have plenty more to choose from. I personally love all their styles, though 73 to 76 is probably my favorite.
We went to Sweet December 5Th 2023 in Wrexham The were fantastic , and Andy Scott being from Wrexham was the icing on the cake ,they even came bake on with Wrexham shirts on , hope their on again . ❌🏴❌🏴🏴❌🏴❌
Esta cancion tanta alegre y bailable se escuchaba en las emisoras radiales en 1972.Recordando al insuperable grupo Sweet .Saludos y bendiciones desde Lima Peru.
3 of them gone. RIP 😔. Keeping Sweet alive is the great Andy Scott. Sweet was my go to band when I was at school. The first time I saw them was on The Golden Shot with this very song. I thought they were awesome.
What a song, such good memories. Wanna go back in time... The girl at 2.21 is so beautifull and dance so sweet... Nowadays you don't see that anymore... Still building my timemachine... 😄
This is my type of music. Never enjoyed anything heavy. But this band took me by the hand and seduced me down the path from Funny Funny to Sweet FA. No other band in the world could do this. They were truly exceptional.
@@farrellvanessa absolutely, thank god for utube, I think its kept me sane, during this nightmare, at least we can take ourselves back in time in thought, and dream.
@@andymatthews7617 That's right. It's been a tough couple of years and not enough Sweet music to go around IMO. But at least we can hang on to what we do have of them.
What a great band !!! Thank you for your fantastic Sweet-Sound 🎶👌 You are sadly missed Brian, Mick and Steve. Keep on rocking and having fun together where ever you are. I still love you guys 💕
MUCHAS GRACIAS A TODOS LOS AMIGOS QUE SUBEN ESTA HERMOSA MUSICA, PERO MOLESTA QUE ALGUNAS PERSONAS PONGAN CONDICIONES ESTAMOS CASI 4 AÑOS Y TOTALMENTE SIN FINES DE LUCRO, GRACIAS ESTIMADOS Y DE NUEVO GRACIAS.
Holy crap, I can’t believe that I used to wear two coloured flares & had long hair like Brians. Great music & a wonderful time to be 17 years old. No money, no car , crappy job that only paid £6.00 a week and always on the look out for girls. Amazing days.🇬🇧👍👍👍
So fun. So catchy. So awesome! One of my favorite Sweet songs, even if it's one of their pop records, which the band didn't like. Awesome performance too.
Amazing Band.Had photos of them on my bedroom wall.Loved all their music.Great to see as one other person mentioned that at least some TV stations kept these performances for posterity unlike BBC Who destroyed them.Also noticed how pretty and feminine the girls dancing where unlike todays Navvies.
We’re now in November 2024. My 3 year old grandson absolutely loves this song…and so do I. I’m 61.
I am still sweet fan.
Always a sweet fan
@JoanneFalkinder me too
Loved Brian he was quite shy but I believe he was a lovely person loved the sweet as a teenager and still do at nearly 63
Me too and super fit
sweet glam rock. what a legacy. what a time. thanks you tube.
Brians voice was absolutely amazing. Its just horrible how it was taken from him so brutally
Yes... brilliant voice and sweet person, in every sense of the word...I wonder what level of cruelty it would have taken to beat and kick him so brutally as to ruin some of his vocal cords forever...Now he's in a place that only love and light, has for boundaries...RIP Brian (and Mick and Steve)❤
He done it him self un fortunately, but sweet were awesome 😊
what a nice song iove it
What a great song. Along with Coco, Wig Wam Bam, Little Willy.....
Dont forget ,Blockbuster another great Sweet song.
@@BucksFizzRayWas thinking same at 69!
They were one of the best 70's bands. Hard to listen to them without tapping your toes.
LOL, this was crap then, still crap today. T Rex or Slade yes, they were something else.
I do not dare to write which was for me the best band back then...
But maybe this fact makes it weight much heavier, when I say how much I liked from some time later on the Sweet. Yes, I own their vinyls, since my youth.

The Sweet, meine Lieblinge bis an mein Lebensende❤️
Brian Connolly - sweet voice!
one of the best groups of the 70s
Brian had such smooth beautiful voice... they were great....
They might not have enjoyed it because it wasn't theirs. They just delivered the tune. That said. I really think Brian enjoyed this one. His face says it all.
Nn
There has never been and never will be another Sweet....great memories of my youth!!
With you
Lllĺllĺlĺllll
Ditto!
no there wont be. sure miss them. loved them since 1st grade or b4 and im 58. love Steve vm and am learning bass
The best 70s group 😘😘😘😘
A big thanks to European TV for saving all the clips the BBC chucked away.
👍
I'd like to blow the f--king so called BBC TO HELL
bbc's narrative sure took a 180
It's cos , Jimmy Saville didn't announce them, else they would have saved it.
Thanks to German TV
I'm listening it from Hungary in December 2024. I'm 68.

Agree, The Sweet so well sounded, they needed much more credits and attention then they got !!
THE BEST my friend THE BEST
Brian was the best singer of Sweet .He's always in my heart
Sweet was not Sweet without Brian.
Sweet was Brain - and Steve, Mick and Andy....
I absolutely agree with you Leo and Sally!
@@sallywilliams5444 yes! Nobody will ever sing like Brian did 🎤. He was the best frontman ever 💕
his voice was so pleasing to hear
4 billion people, was more fun and relaxed times than todays 8...
Jag var 14 år är 65 nu och älskar låten
me too
The thing about these guys is I can listen to them over and over. Never gets old...unlike me.
Lol 😅
The thing about these guys is that they are seriously addictive: you listen to them once, then you can't do without them, without feeling a sense of unease or lack of something if you don't listen to one of their songs, at least once a day...

Rest In Peace Brian Connolly, Mick Tucker and Steve Preist we love you guys , hope you are having a wild party up there in heaven 👼👼
Jñuuu
drugs and alcohol, plenty of like here. the sweet, top of the pops!
Very very very sadly missed hope to get a ticket in heaven for there concert up there ❤❤❤❤
@@andymatthews7617 me to.
I know the guys had little affection for their early pop hits, but I think this is brilliant.

Вы правы.Лучшее 1974
Dommage qu'ils n'étaient pas vraiment reconnus hors UK et Allemagne.
I'm going to be playing this all next summer as loud as possible during beach parties
Absolute Legends,
super Countrysänger mit einer tollen Stimme und perfekter Sound
Great 70s glam! How can you not love this?
These guys could play anything, AND THEY DID.
One of the most under rated bands of the 70’s. They were trend setters & pioneers.
Great band. Wonderful voices. Sweet song. We miss the departed. RIP to their great souls.

@@andymatthews7617 The world lost him way too soon. Praying he's at peace.
I love this song!!! The band looks like they are having fun!!!! Love Brian's voice....great band
Steve, Mick, and Brian having a pint together for the first time in many years. RIP
Now just waiting for Andy to really kick it up to the next level up there!
@@lukeydukeful lalambadaonnaimepasca
God bless them all very very sadly missed 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Their sound sure did change during 1972 ! I mean look at the songs they were doing later the same year ! A very different sound ☺
Большое спасибо.
These guys left a legacy brilliant
still lov Sweet after all these years
Wie ich die Zeit der 70ger Jahre vermisse mit "The Sweet" sie sind und bleiben meine Top Band.....bis heute😊👍🎵🎼🎶🎤🎸
Vermisse ich auch die erste Zigarette der erste Küss die erste Mofa und die geile Musik.LG.Tommy
Maailman paras yhtye, ihana laulaja Brian Connolly 💚 best band forever ,love vocals 💓
I remember when that song first came on the radio, super! When then it hit the discos!! Nobody was sitting!
Rest in peace Steve Priest. You will never be forgotten!
The dude was so camp at times it was cool.
Re minds me of the 70 ties and how great The Sweet was, and still is.
O very sad how Brian's life began, and even sadder how it ended.😪 Rest in Peace Steve Priest. He (Steve had the cutest smile EVER) Such a GREAT GROUP! Only One left Andy. Must be very sad for him, like the Bee Gees, Only one left.
I can't imagine how andy feels there must be a huge hole in his life life is so cruel 😥😥😥😥
Brian is always in my heart and soul i love him so much
Again and again - I look these great Sweet-Videos - we had not in our youth in the 70ths....
You can sing to it..you can dance to it...it was fun. Loved it! (62 years old so I know what I'm talking about!)
Sweet were the best band one of my all time favs
Ever...:)
Well said totally agree 😊😊
I Love this Band I remember my Childhood later my teenage! Pop, Glam Rock, Hard Rock!
I Love all songs of Sweet!
Unbeatable so tragic that 3 great people and musicians have left us 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Andrew Matthews 👍
Gosh I am 9 again . Teenage rampage days all over again . You never forget the the songs as clear back then .Just as Amazing now ! God Bless
So Young and handsome !!
Best glam rock EVER Brian Connolly r.i.p. Steve PRIEST r.i.p. heaven will be rocking with you,s😢🏌🎶🎶
It's a pity that we never got to see Sweet as a geezer rock band. With their wide repertoire they'd been incredible.
The Bubble-Gum era of Sweet. What a band! Outstanding!

Love this band growing up to this thanks sweet

Always blown away by a) the masterful work on the cowbell (totally serious) and b) the vocals at the end that keep modulating up. Such a catchy tune.
Loved watching the sweet on top of the pops back in the day, was always entertaining, sweet memories! 😘
These guys are bloody LEGENDS ❤
What a song, such good memories. Wanna go back in time... The girl at 2.21 is so beautifull and dance so sweet... Nowadays you don't see that anymore... Still building my timemachine... 😄

60 now, but remember when I was a mere 15 and these guys were my/our heroes, hee hee great music....still! not to be taken seriously by a long shot.
