Great review, thaks for it. He was a good musician, like the other members of the BC-Sweet era. Without him The Sweet were no longer the same. So sad his life ends so early.
Beautiful Brian- he was just incredible. He'll always be in our hearts and never forgotten. Love and Miss you Brian! 💔💞 RIP Mick and Steve also. Sweet forever!
Maravilloso hombre, precioso, voz extraordinaria y única!!!...❤❤❤ Nunca, jamás serás olvidado!!!🎉🎉❤ Tu forma de cantar y tú figura quedaron en mi corazón!!!...
A lot of people in the USSR loved Sweet. I had their billboard on the wall. They were a really tough British band. I am 56 and I listening Sweet pretty often so far.
I once worked with a young woman whose Dad used to run a club called The Grey Topper in Jacksdale, Nottinghamshire, the Sweet appeared there many times throughout the 70s. She told me one day she was off school poorly and wandered down to the function room where the Sweet boys were practicing ready for the show that night. She sat at a table just watching them, then they had a break and Brian walked over to her and asked her why she wasn't at school, when she told him he got his jacket and put it round her shoulders and gave her a big hug! She said he was such a nice man! I thought he was gorgeous during their heyday and always wanted my hair the same style as Brian's!
I saw Brian at his last ever gig. It was at Butlins Holiday Camp in Bognor Regis UK. My wife managed to get backstage for his autograph, we still have it.
Brian had an amazing voice. The jealous pricks that jumped him kicked him in the throat resulting in damage to his voice and then his vices just caused a more rapid decline in his singing capabilities. R.I.P. Mr. Connolly 🕊
Brian still went on to record amazing heavy rock vocals on the 'Give Us a Wink' album (1976) and he sang with the purest of voices on the verses of 'Love is Like Oxygen' (1978)
Brian's swan song in mho is "Love is Like Oxygen." He didn't get enough love. He died. I weep when I see that sad clip. RIP Mr Connolly. I always loved you Brian 😢❤ He truly was a SWEET, kind and well spoken gentleman.
Listening to this breaks my heart I never knew and I've always loved sweet. God bless him in the name of Jesus. When he sang Love is like Oxygen I always loved that song when I was a kid growing up in the 70s
Those were fantastic songs such good memories... So sad what can happen I just wish people could all rise up we could help each other instead of breaking each other...
You are so correct darlin. I too, am an addict however, I recognized that I have a very addictive personality. So I avoid anything that might be a problem. My former husband and I ran 978 miles from home to overcome an addiction to meth. I have been clean ever since 1-1-85. But, my husband used alcohol to get off meth. That alcohol addiction took his life in 2007. I do everything I can to avoid addictive things because I'm all my precious children have left. But I still grieve for those that just can't. My new man is an ordained minister and knows my past....we've been friends 50 years and lost our spouses just hours apart. His wonderful love gives me hope and inspires me to continue the sober life. I'm fixing to be a great grandmother and WANT to be here. Addicts don't choose to be addicts, mine I feel, is a personality flaw.
Such a sad loss to the music industry. Brian connolly had it all, the looks and a great rock voice. I use to see him in my younger years when he was dating a girl just round the corner from where I lived.. R.I.P..
Tenho 53 anos e ha 2 anos descobri essa banda ....escuto todos os dias e Sweet ainda vive e vivera para sempre em nossa memória Um abraço onde você estiver Bryan...muita luz pra você e seus companheiros que estão ai com você brilhante no céu
One of the best bands who were well ahead of their era. It was heartbreaking to see Brian go downhill so quickly. Their songs will always live on in my playlist❤
The worst part about that beating was that the scum who did it knew who he was, and deliberately kicked his throat to ruin his career. Who knows how far the original band might have gone if it wasn't for that. Such a great voice.
@@isabelpark7650they didn’t. The band first achieved success in the UK chart, with thirteen Top 20 hits during the 1970s alone. Brian Connolly was born in Govanhill in 1945, same place as myself, in the south side of Glasgow. My mother knew them. He was adopted by Jim and Helen McManus in Blantyre, Hamilton, Scotland, the McManus family are related to Taggart star Mark McManus.
He had a voice like an angel. I loved that band, every member was incredibly gifted and could sing like crazy. Only Andy Scott remains, a soaring soprano backup singer.
The Sweet Shoppe aka The Sweet aka Sweet. Sweet has been eligible to be inducted into The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame since 1999. As of July 3, 2023, they have still NEVER been Nominated or Inducted into The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Of the four original founding members, Brian Connolly, Steve Priest, Andy Scott and Mick Tucker, the only surviving member is Andy Scott. More than seven of their songs have appeared on the soundtracks of over 100 movies and TV shows. Most recently on two of The Guardians of the Galaxy movie soundtracks. How tragic that Sweet may never be Hall of Fame Inductees, and if they are, at this point it would be posthumously for three of the founding member. I've written The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice to complain about the way bands and solo artists are selected for induction. L L Cool J is a Hall of Fame Inductee, but not Sweet, a rock & roll band that was not only very talented, but a rock & roll band that helped pave the way for the 80's Big Hair and Glam bands of my generation. ❤ ~ APRIL LIPKE
Was für eine tolle Zeit..... die Sweet und Brian mit gestaltet haben! Danke dir für die wunderbaren Erinnerungen! Die Musik ist ein wunderbares Vermächtnis, Danke an Brian and Sweet!!! ❤
Sweet were my favourite band at school . I was so jealous of Brian's fantastic hair style as well! Happy memorable days of a great band and such a sad loss when this icon of 70s rock passed away . ŔIP Brian, Mick and Steve as well. ❤
I love The Sweet Guys . So Sad to read this story what happened to Brian with the getting beaten up , possibly what could of Caused the down wards spiral and drinkin knowin that his carreer could be over , also didnt have a very good start in life either bein abandoned . so Sad that his health decined .gone to soon 😔💔 but never forgotton RIP Brian 🤍🕯️🤍
Tragic. Desolation Boulevard was a huge album in my pre-Punk teenage years. His voice and Sweet's music had a great impact on me and my friend's. R.I.P. Brian
Sweet were phenomenal and Brian Connelly was the lead voice and a very talented musician. Power pop, Glam, bubble gum music they were at the forefront of, I am that "teenage rampage" rocker. Love Sweet.
Brian was a beautiful and exceptionally talented gentleman. His voice was phenomenal. What made me the saddest was that the musical criticism from his solo career interviewers. They made fun of him on tv and in all the media at the time. No respect at all.
Stimmt ganz sicher 😢 nicht. Es sind Millionen Fans 😊👍🏼 die ihn liebten, u. Ihn niemals vergessen. Jede Band hat mal Momente, wo sie nicht immer so gut ankommt. Für mich die GRÖSSTEN ❤👍🏽👍🏼😊
What a heartbreaking story. Nobody should have to deal with that much pain. I'm just glad he left behind so many wonderful songs (Fox On the Run and Little Willy prob my favorites) that give so many people joy to this day. ❤
I am terribly sorry 💔. I missed all that in 1997. Devastating, but you being where you are now, I had no idea too. I don't know everything. But you would understand how I missed that. 1997 was very difficult year for me. You know. May you accept my belated condonsces and prayers decades later. Thanks for your music ❤ RIP 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 I know you rest in a nice place. God Bless you ❤
@@seltaeb3302 I have long thought that there is a very interesting documentary to be made concerning the whole situation. It is certainly noticeable how Brian and Mark looked more alike as they aged.
When you hear stories of people who met him then, it seems like he was always friendly and humble, sad that he had not enough help when he needed it most.
I put on TH-cam tonight and seen Foxes on the Run I loved hearing that in the Disco aged 16 , I used to have my hair just like Brian’s God rest him 🙏❤️
The Sweet was such a great band. I loved Brian's voice. Being a drummer, Mick Tucker was one of my influences. The whole band was talented. Mick was one if the most underrated drummers in drumming history. If not, the most underrated. He was Jon Bonham good!
Gifted individual, Love is like oxygen was probably my favorite song from them. May he rest in peace. May the Lord bless him and comfort him . In the name of Jesus Christ! Amen ! 🕊️❤️🙏
@@СергейТитов-г7йИмею в виду оригинал .У них ,много поклонников по всему миру Я считаю ,самая профессиональная и крутая группа ,и только глупец не видит этого ,или не хочет видеть. 👍🎶🌟🤩🙏
Damn!!! I have been a huge fan of Sweet since I first heard "Little Willie" when I was 10 years old in 1972, but I am ashamed to say that I had absolutely no idea the horrible things that Brian Connelly went through until now!!! But yes, even now at my age of almost 63, I still listen to everything Sweet, especially the early years, and my favorite albums are definitely Desolation Boulevard and Give Us A Wink!!! And in my opinion, this music was before it's time as Sweet paved the road for many other up and coming bands that were hugly influenced by Sweet!!! Ernie Wilber, and R.I.P Brian Connelly, and anyone else Sweet whose no longer here with us!!!
I'm 65 now... in my 'teens' I was in love with Brian! Had his face plastered all over my bedroom wall! Blockbuster was and is my all time favourite Sweet track...! Oh the 'good old days'... Thank you!
I feel very empathetic for him having repeated heart attacks had to be a very frightening experience!! I will always love their music i.was adopted to so I definitely can relate to him so sad they beat him up 😭😭😇😇 may his music live on Brian Sweet R.i.p🎉
I love you Brian Connolly and I always will. My husband passed in 2021 but he too was born in 1945. I love older guys (I am 15 years younger than my husband). I now have a new, great man but he too, is older. I only wish I coulda seen you sing. I pray you're doing well in Heaven handsome 🙏
Meet him back stage sat with him and couldn't of been a nicer guy. He listen and he talked. This was in Aberdeen in about 1992. His background similar to mine only in early childhood.
Me and my sister met Brian in 1978 in. He sat with us for a short while and chatted. He was very tired and very polite.
Great review, thaks for it. He was a good musician, like the other members of the BC-Sweet era. Without him The Sweet were no longer the same. So sad his life ends so early.
😔🙏👊👊
I'm 64yrs. old, and still listen to Sweet! Great Band!!
Yeah, I listen to them a lot still, great band!
No tengo ésa edad pero me encanta las canciones de éste grupo lo máximo 😂❤
yeah, im 63 and have them on my phone playlist and play 'em a lot when riding my motorbike, along with slade and others from that era, love it.
I'll always love their music.
I remember these in the seventies.
He died young !!!
What's your favourite song ?
I am 69 and love The Sweet, and still listen their music, Love from Mexico 🇲🇽
Beautiful Brian- he was just incredible. He'll always be in our hearts and never forgotten. Love and Miss you Brian! 💔💞 RIP Mick and Steve also. Sweet forever!

@taedyspansky мудилА
Interesting. I didn't realize you had that much access to outside music back then. Glad you got the Sweet- they are a great band!
He was abandoned by his mom. That's probably a big reason for the alcoholism. Never judge an addict. We're all just coping from pain
Yes, very true! We all have something rotten that has happened to us at some point.
Agree. We all have secret sorrows.
makes me wonder why the man did not adopt him or why he is not in jail for satutory rape? teens dont nee be having sex until older nd married.
@@rosesmith6208
Brian was born in the 1940s - times were VERY DIFFERENT back then.
@@rosesmith6208aybe be died in the war, 1940 n all pretty big one was going on ya know

THANK you for pointing out the kicks to his throat that ruined his voice. These biography shorts should be more thorough in their research.
He was one of the best Hard Rock singers.. He is missed. 😢
Best singer!!!R.I.P.Brian

One of the best bands who were well ahead of their era. It was heartbreaking to see Brian go downhill so quickly. Their songs will always live on in my playlist❤
Similar in some ways to Michael Hutchence: after he was beaten, he was never the same..
Sad story of both these talented singers…
*Jealousy is a dangerous enemy..*
I didn't know someone beat up Michael H! That's so sad. May they both rest in peace. 😔
First I ever heard of that
The worst part about that beating was that the scum who did it knew who he was, and deliberately kicked his throat to ruin his career. Who knows how far the original band might have gone if it wasn't for that. Such a great voice.
Yeah, that's disgusting! Brian had such a smooth, beautiful voice before that happened.
They already had so many great hits. They only really seemed to take off in Germany.

The spitting image of my brother Charlie who also died in 1997. Great R'n'R voice! Had a lot of power & grit, a shame they had such a rough lives.
