Мне 61 а люблю Sweet с 1976
This group never got the recognition they deserved.
Beautiful Brian We all miss you
Mick Tucker, one of the best drummers of all time.
One listen to any of Sweets songs and this jumps out at ya!
Your right dude superb drummer 👌
I liked hearing comments , you know the real appreciated drummers talking points on his gift the doing . He sounds really good
Great talented guy
THE best drummer of all time!
Brian's voice was incredible, he could sing anything that was given to him and do a fantastic job of performing it. Each one of the guys were brilliant at what they did in the band but together they were magic, thank you Sweet for all the music and the eye candy I loved every one of you RIP Brian, Mick and Steve you are all sooo missed.
God Bless Steve Priest. Rest in Peace (1948-2020).
These guys BELONG in the rock n roll hall of fame.
Mick Tucker was and is the best drummer all times! I"m from Ukraine.
The Sweet’s harmonies and musicianship were as good as Queen’s. Great documentary!
Jobb volt mint a Queen!
Better than Queen, agreed
Sweet's harmonies remind me some what of Yes's harmonies ( I've seen All Good People)
Before Queen 🎼🇬🇧
Simpler times... the wonderful 70s.... Thank you Brian, Mick , Steve and Andy....unparalleled talent x
Wigwam Bam!!!!!
Господи почему так недооценили группу, талантливые, красавцы, Брайан такая внешность и удивительный вокал, супер!!!!❤❤❤❤❤ А ведь квин так на них похожи, тот же бек вокал, Фредди такая же манера вокала, не тембра, а именно манера исполнения, это же так ясно,они основатели глемрока а мы счастливы что жили в одно время с ними респек ребятам!!!!!
Yes another crap single
Thank you Sweet for what you gave to us 70's kids.
Gee Brian Francis Connolly had a great voice,👍👍👍👍👍✌️💯♥️
2024 ❤ Brian ❤ Andy ❤ Steve ❤ Mick
These guys are the epitome of a great 70s rock band 🎉
Brian was so beautiful.
They should be in the Hall of Fame They are so wonderful!!!❤❤❤❤🙏🏻
Eine Antwort auf Deutsch: meine Lieblingsband der 70er Jahre,bin jetzt 65 und höre the Sweet auf CD immer noch sehr,sehr gerne.
Leider lebt nur noch einer....schade...schade....💗💗💗
Geht mir genauso. Bin 63 und höre Sweet sehr gerne . L.g. aus Deutschland .
I was immensely privileged to a teenager in the 70s the best ever era Sweet were at the pinnacle of that era what a band RIP Brian Mick and Steve .❤
They were ahead of their time! The real hard rock pioneers! Should be in rocknroll hall of fame! Ages ago!
2024 they are still being played x
As a 54 year old American, I just discovered that the Sweet were responsible for some of my favorite rock classics from the radio! Love me some Sweet!
Yes
i grew up in the 70s uk ...this band is ingrained.
BC’s voice sadly had gone by the time this video was made. They were great before. Desolation Boulevard was their best album and has a fantastic drum solo on it in which Mick duets with himself on a silver screen ( on timpani)
Rock classics ! I don’t think so . Rock classics begin with Like A Rolling Stone or anything by C C R or the Beatles, the Stones, the Byrds . Never the Sweet
Same
Такой Супер группы больше не будет.
Still listening 50 years later. I'd call that staying power.
The 70's were definitely the greatest. Can I go back and stay there.
I never left..........
I'm going with u
I want my Trans Am back.
Yeeeees
70S RULED
Ich will die Zeit zurück stellen 😍😍😍
Ja, das würde ich auch so gerne!!
Спасибо за это видео. Всегда пересматриваю по несколько раз. Потому что нравится!!!!
Én is❤😊
The teenage Rampage everybody wants a piece of the action
Criminally underrated! One of the greatest bands ever!
yes
The Sweet enjoyed top ten hits around the world, made a ton of cash, were worshipped as glam rock gods and the subject of countless girls' (and boys') teenage fantasies. If that's underrated, I'll take it any day!
They were very well known. Popular at their time.
I hate when morons use the word underrated. Good hell. sweet hasn't done anything in 40 years. They aren't relevant but they were NEVER underrated. Good hell
I agree,the more videos I watch the more I like it. I liked the songs before I ever saw them in a video.
Cколько интересного увидел, уникальные кадры, спасибо огромное.
Steve Priest with probably the most prophetic statement in Rock n Roll. "Now we are gonna earn our lifes wages in a few years"
Raven Kahne - “We’re gonna last ten years.” 😮
RIP Steve
Rip Steve priest 😔🙏
He was so happy see video of him and Brian he was so nice to him when he and Brian hugged it was great
Fantastic Boys- ❤❤👍💥BRIAN..ANDY..MICK and STEVE
The 'Hell Raiser' track really shows just how amazing this group were.....they were incredibly underrated. Imagine them doing Wembley now......they would bring the entire house down. For my money they were the best British rock group ever. Period.
Block buster also
Mit einer der geilsten Gruppen der 1970er Jahre, ich habe sie ❤ geliebt
WOW...I like the sound of sweet ...they make the 70ies great
RIP Steve Priest....will never be fogotten💓
LOVE LOVE LOVE THE SWEET GROUP😘❤❤❤❤🥰🎼🎙🎵🎤🎶🎸🎹🎧😊
What an amazing band they were!
as an almost 14 year old girl I am very grateful that we have the technology to be able to still listen to great older music like theirs :)
These four boys were singers, composers and instrumentalists, what a beautiful band they were!
Summer of 73 ,l was 10yrs , still sound good all these years later 🥰🏴
I was twelve that year, and you’re so very right!
FOREVER 💧❤🎸🎼 The Sweet 🎼🎸❤
The Sweet belong in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame‼️ They were beyond influential and waaay ahead of their time. Not a ‘teenybopper’ group. All were multi-talented musicians. ❇️
Why not in hall of fame?
SWEET..., genialer Glam-Rock - unvergessen. R.I.P.
"WE OWE IT ALL TO THE KIDS WHO BOUGHT THE RECORDS, BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE ELSE HAS HELPED US"
not even Mike Chapman ?
Why thank you on that. I bought Sweets Little Willy, Fox on the Run and Love is Like Oxygen. USA
@@robroufla did Mike chapman give all of his money to the band? No, it was the kids who paid for the lps and singles that earned the band their money of course!
@@b.p4958 haha hahaha
Spinal Tap
Been a fan of the band since 1972 when I was ten and still love them now. I have never seen this documentary before and it is so good. A shame it was not longer.
The best band ever to be denied success. I listen to them and enjoy them weekly. Love 'em.
All brilliant vocalists and musicians
We all got old. Sad to see so many legends pass away
The band was awesome!!!
All four really amazing : all singers, brilliant soloists on instruments, every song a masterpiece. They tought everybody what Rock & Roll can be.
So important band its just insane.
The live performance of hell raiser at the end of this video says it all. They were such a tight band.
The Sweet were are a band of exceptionally talented musicians in a weird time. Mick Tucker is one the best drummers of all times, Andy Scott is a master lead guitarist, Steve Priest is a cool bass player and Brian Connelly was one of the best singers of his day. Together they were the Sweet! Their live album and some of the other live performances are testimony of their talent!!!!! The live acoustic from Sweet live and Mick's 'man with the golden arm' will I've forever! Thanks for the memories!!!!
exactly! an exceptional combination of talent and style...so Sweet!
@@elainewalmsley1217, exactly
Stllno oh my goodness Mick Tucker was an awesome drummer
I reckon Brian's vocals could match anyone's anytime - what a loss!
They were and are great
Oh no. I have just heard the news that Steve Priest has died. Tremendous bass player, vocalist and someone who really knew the value gained through hard work. The man who put extra glam in glam, but remained true to his hard rock roots. Thanks for the music Steve
I agree...Steve was amazing...so super talented....I'm heartbroken....he will definitely be missed!!!💔🎶
Sad news. So , the only one remaines- Andy Scott. And he is in a good condition, as far as I know.
The mascara industry owes him such a debt of gratitude. As a bassist in a Sweet cover band in the 80s, I miss him on a level I can't even articulate.
Love you Steve
Brian so honest
We want Sweet, We want Sweet....damn right we do!
BEST of the Glam Rock Gods!
Brian is gorgeous and a voice like a angel 😇 Rip miss you so much Brian
Mia it's not just brain Connolly who's gorgoeous sos Andy Scott and Mick Tucker and Steve priest
Exuse me mia its not just brain Connolly whos gorgeous and handsome so is andy scott andy scott and steve prest and mick tucker
Oh Yes he is gorgeous. I agree.
Brian was adorable and he was such a good singer.
His hips
Mick Tucker one of the most absolutely under-rated drummers of all time.
Amazing harmonisation between them
I’m 65 and French.
SWEET was my favorite glam rock band between 1970 and 1976.
Fanny Adams and Desolation Boulevard really amazing LP Album Music.
Always in my head.
Forever ❤️🤘🎤🎸🥁🎼
In the states they were really loved and appreciated , they made 1970' s such a great time to be a teenager , thanks guys
Mick forever ❤️💜❤️
*THE SWEET ARE LEGENDARY*
Qué emocion me provoca verlos hablar, no solo cantar. Verlos reir, probarse la ropa linda que usaban en sus conciertos. Por fin los he conocido. Yo tenia 13 años cuando los escuché por primera vez en la radio en Ecuador.. Recuerdo cada una de las canciones que llegaron hasta allá. Se puso de moda la ropa plateada y los zapatos con plataforma en mujeres y hombres y vendian en las tiendas los Tatuines que se mojaban y se presionaban en la piel y se quedaba la figura de colores con brillos, asi como ellos usaban en la cara. Ahora con 63 años me compré el triple CD de ellos y todavia bailo como cuando tenia 13. Sus canciones son tan interesantes y llenas de vida. Son explosivas. Gracias por haber existido. Seguiran vivos hasta el dia de mi muerte.
Te entiendo, están en mi lista topten
Лица молодые,музон ураган,красавцы все,и все было все далече,иных уж нет,смотрим и ловим ка....ф.!
Probably the most underrated band ever; simply fantastic music
Mick seemed like a genuinely nice person. He was polite, sensible and spoke intelligently.
Outstanding group!!! They should be very proud. I loved Brian's vocals and Steve seemed like he was always having fun...love his spirit. All talented!!!! RIP Brian and Mick
I love all kinds of music I'm not going to say their the greatest band's ever but Brian and Mick are right up there with what they do. And its just turned 2020 and im still listen to them so i rate them right up there and i agree they didn't get the credit they deserved.
I was born in Ex. Yugoslavia and my first ever record was single record : "The Sixteens" with B side "Burn onThe Flame" i did buy it in 1975 - when i was 14 years old.Since then i loved the band with all my heart and ears. Long time gone now. Now i am 58 and i don't listen anymore the Sweet but from time to time i go on UTube to remind myself on the best years of my life. I think their album " Sweet Funny Adams was their far the best album though all their albums were musically exellent .
Bila su to divna vremena. Ja sam pocela da ih slusam 73e sa 13 godina. Zalosno je kako su Mik i Brajan zavrsili. Omiljeni mi je bio Endi dok su druge devojcice sve volele Brajana...
@@xfiles0082 : I muški i ženski obožavatelji su ih voljeli mnogo. Bili su zaista ekstravagantni s oblačenjem i s odličnom muzikom. Drago mi je da ima naših dosta iz ExJugoslavije koji su slusali njihovu muziku. Naźalost , i Steve Priest je bas nedavno umro u 72 goj godini. Samo je tvoj omiljeni Andy Scott jos uvijek živ.
Greetings from Biełaruś (Ex.USSR), dear Slavonic sisters and brothers! Vièlmi padòbnaja històryja. Bubblegum'avuja pièsieńki The Sweets bylì pièršymi šturškàmi, što skiravàli maju dušù û bok rock-music'i 🎸.
What stands out in this documentary is that the Sweet, unlike other musical acts of any era, didn't develop an "I'm holier than thou" attitude as a result from their success. Mick clearly said that the band owed their success to their fans who bought their records, "otherwise we wouldn't be here." I've seen videos of the Sweet performing in concert and it was obvious that they wanted to ensure that their fans were enjoying themselves--e.g. they'd get them to sing with them, like: Sweet: "Little Willy Willy won't..." Fans: "go home." I've been to shows where the musical act could care less about the audience and I'd think, "Well he/she seemed to forget who paid to listen to him/her perform." Musically, the Sweet utilized different techniques, I'm speaking about this as a musician. Among what was characteristic of their musical style included their vocal harmonies, sometimes arpeggiated towards Andy's falsetto, Brian's vocal range and versatility as a lead singer and \ Steve's ability to not only be a lead singer but provide his famous "cameo" since "Wig Wag Bam." If I'm not mistaken, all four band members have taken the role as lead singer. Instrumentally, they also made use of arpeggios--best example is the "Fox on the Run" riff--and "call and response"--"Rebel Rouser," as heard in the exchange, "Who is the face that's gonna set the pace?/I'm a rocker, I'm a roller, I'm an outer space" among other musical techniques. OK you're probably bored by all this...I'm saying this from a musician's point of view because I really believe that the Sweet didn't get the full credit that they deserved. When I was introduced to them, I thought that I found "auditory gold."
GlamGal 710 :
I’m not getting bored. Info like that broadens my understanding why I did , and still , like their music so much. Thx.
Batphink Reynolds Thanks very much!
I mean it might be because they didn’t get that much success tho. There’s a reason everyone says they were underrated, because they were. Its always the people closer to the bottom of the chain who are much closer to reality.
Agree with you 💯✌️👍
So very true.
I saw many concerts in my lifetime. I remember being soooo excited to see The Cars in the 80s. What a sad reality.
They sang for maybe a bit over an hour and never uttered a word to the audience, never tried any sort of audience participation etc. It was painful and robotic. Great music, shitty people. Not long ago when singer Rik Ocasek died, it wasn't any shock to me that he left his ex-wife penniless, even though they were still friendly and she stayed with him to nurse him until the disease finally killed him. She had to borrow money for food and he had no one else close to him in life. Apparently, he was a true jerk.
Also, Ted Nugent was trash. I was fourth row and all he did was scream and hit on all the girls down front. What he sounded like on records wasn't obvious in concert. Blackfoot opened and they blew him away.
My most favorite surprise was Genesis. Free tickets and I definitely did not want to go. Exceedingly great experience. Phil Collins was a hella showman and vocalist, drummer too.
Sat front row for Styx in their early 80s prime. THAT was amazing
Wot a band!!!.....so so underrated. I did work with Brian back in 87 in Norwich at a venue, lovely gent. Mick Tucker deffo top 20 world class drummers
I'm a gal from the 70's and it's sad to see the different band members from that era pass away !😔
Oh, der so junge Brian voll in seinem Element !!!! Aber der Ruhm und Stress ,sowie der Alkohol haben ihm das Leben gekostet !!!!! Danke Brian ! Ruhe in Frieden !!!!
Sweet ,wundervoll in ihren besten Zeiten !! Danke Brian ,Mick ,Andy & Steve !!!!!
Sind so zuckersüß die Jungs je was würde ich geben damit die Uhr sich nochmal um ein paar jahrzente zurückdreht ☺
Mir tut es do leid das es so mit Brain enden musste...ich war total verliebt mit 16 Jahren in ihn.❤..jetzt bin ich 62 und schwaerme immer noch von ihm..RIP.
@@violakupsch5942 ja liebe Viola,ich kann dich sehr gut verstehen. Mir geht's genauso!
One of the best British rock bands 👌 💕
This band was also great live,talented rock musicians, best glam rock band ever
*Happy birthday, Brian* ❤
Wow! Just freaking wow! As a Hispanic 59 year old man listening to The Sweet as a teen with memories of friends and when life back back in the day wasn't so messed up was so meaningful.Seeing the hard work and determination to be a the best,and their love and dedication to their fans makes me love them and their music even more. The Sweet wasn't a good band The Sweet was a great band! My regret was not seeing them live.
Love These Sweet Guys
😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
They are all Amazin 🤩
back in early 70's i was very Little wen these Guys came on the scene ,so i had'nt really heard of them till most likely the 80's wen i see em on a TOTP Two episode and i then was Hooked ❤ So have few Of their records [singles ] and few Cd albums too.
Sad😢 these guys passed 💔
RiP Brian 🎤🤍🕯🤍
Mick🥁🤍🕯🤍
Steve🎸🤍🕯🤍 Their memories will live on through their Amazin music 🎶and their outstandin performances .❤
So Only 1 original left Andy Scott ❤️ he has a Brill voice too🎤❤
i often watch them on utube . . Very entertaining , i love all their songs, aside from their Amazin classics, i recently came across several others that i had'nt heard before n now i love.🎶❤️
Sweet, belongs in the, Rock and Roll Hall Fame !!
🎤🎸🎵🎹🥁
I love them when I was young and still love them today.
They were great in the 70’s and we could do with a lot more of that energy in music now. Modern stuff is just bloody boring.
i luved them as a teenager but luv them more the older i get☝🏻rock on bro🤘🏻
Brilliant
Was a big Sweet fan as a young man growing up. Hell I'm still a big fan. Nice to see Andy's doing ok. Sweet has had its share of tragedy. As most bands. I partied like a maniac , and I wasn't a big star of any kind. Drugs was easy to get back in the 70's , mainly coke and B.I. 62 , the strongest diet pill on the shelf back then. And drank like a fish. Wonder I didn't end up like Brian. I'm rambling now as I look back. Sweet was a hell of a band , and all 4 could have been a lead singer in any other band. RIP Steve , Mick and Brian.
I like how in the first scene as they exit the car, they all thank the driver politely. Says a lot about their character.
Young people were still raised with and used good manners, in those days.
@inside outside upside downside Me too!
Sanctum Sanctorum If they’re elite pompous aristocrats they actually ARE privileged, they’re not acting it. If you’re going to dish out insults at least do it logically. Ok, man of the people?
Gregg Vandenbosch I love Sweet but they were actually known as a difficult band
no just the time
There's no other band like Sweet 👍🎶
Thank you guys for your fantastic Sweet-Sound 🎤🎸🥁🎶
You were my heroes when I was young 💕
Your Music lives on... 🎶
R.I.P.
Brian, sweet angel and 🎤 best voice ever,
Mick, 🥁 drummer-god,
Steve, 🎸 hottest bass player
BLOCKBUSTER - one of the greatest early 70s party numbers! Could dance to it now, though my walking stick might get in the way!
The loss of Brian Connolly is big as it was deeply in love with him as a teenager. Love devouring them.
Almost every great band or single artists has had to fight their way to the top. Most record labels in those days were very hard to sign with no matter how good you were. It took the a lot fans and bands drawing larger and larger crowds in or to get the recognition they deserved. I grew up listening to Sweet and I know that here in America they did incredibly well.
Sweet deserved so much more: recognition, appreciation & rewards...none of them earnt much from their time in the band (apart from a couple of years where they spent,spent,spent)....shame on all the scammers that siphoned their money away.
Fantastic Band! True Rock Stars!!!! Love this Band!!!
I'm just a rock and roll girl I've loved the Sweet since I was 14 and I still love them today 40 yrs later, all their music is my life growing up! Love you guys, miss you Brian and Mick forever Young! you
And now Steve. Sad day. RIP
I ' m with you in it.🎧🎸
They were one of the few super pop teen idol ultra successful bands that actually had talent! Each member of that band were virtuosos in their own right.
Привет ! Команда отличная ! Профессионализм на высоком уровне !!!
For three out of the four guys may they rest in peace. What a phenominal band that in their later years made it to the US. I was just born when they were close disbanding.
the sweet forever!
Loved the sweet and the 70’s unfortunately we will never see these days again ☹️
These guys are on a Queen level, with their talents. Even some of the same sounds, but of course they came first.
a lawsuit happened one way or the other Queen and Sweet, I heard, re copyright/plagiarism of material...maybe re Bohemian Rhapsody...I heard another one happened Sweet vs Mott the Hoople maybe..
They were the original
@@KateLickerThere was never a lawsuit. Bohemian Rhapsody is a song with 50 cords, mostly classical cords, Freddie Mercury started writing the song in 1968. It is progressive rock. Queen was never a glam rock group, they did hard rock, progressive rock and metal in their early years, their albums are full of songs about King, Queens, ogres and fairies. The only song that you could perhaps describe as glam rock is Killer Queen, it is still a far more complex song then the usual glam rock (with 29 different cords).
The Sweet is a great band, but they did basic 4 - 6 cord rock, there is nothing wrong with that, but it is simply a very different sounds, it is like comparing apples and oranges. During this time a lot of people pretended to be camp, Freddie Mercury was naturally camp, it was not a show he put on. Queen also wrote all of their own material, and that makes a big difference. Queen remained popular and a high charting band for over 20 years, The Show Must Go was a top 5 charting song one month before Freddie Mercury's death, and he also did some of his best singing just before his death.
It is really difficult to remain relevant and productive for so long.
The Sweet was a really talented band, they definitely had potential to do more. They were starting to do some interesting stuff in the late 70's, so it is a shame they could not remain together for longer. They are really perhaps the only glam rock band that really had potential beyond glam rock.
I couldn’t agree more. I also hear the Sweet’s influence in Queen’s music.
?? Queen copied Sweet, Andy told Queen as called Smile pre Queen used to visit Sweet gigs & some year after copying Sweets singing style & more...
I LOVE IT sooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
