Glam Rock 1971 to 1976 best music ever

[@leeprice9649]

Another great one from the 70’s. Keep them coming.

[@playitagainsue]

Thanks Lee! I am so glad you enjoyed it. There may be another 70s tune coming very soon...keep an eye out 😉💜

[@MrTantris1]

[@playitagainsue]

[@chrisdunlop5108]

Best song !!!!

[@playitagainsue]

Glad you liked it honey 🤩🧡

[@Mr.Green627]

Epic song, Sweet!👊❤️🌟🙏👌

[@playitagainsue]

Amazing classic 🤩

[@cassandracampbell3424]

I was introduced to this song in the movie Wayne's World! I was hooked!

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Cassandra, that is cool. I have been introduced to many songs through movies. I love it when that happens. It is a really fun song. Thanks for tuning in 🤩

[@cabdriveruk]

"The Ballroom Blitz" was inspired by an incident on 27 January 1973 when the band were performing at the Grand Hall in Kilmarnock, Scotland, and were driven offstage by the audience throwing bottles at them. Andy Scott ( lead guitarist) is the only remaining original member of Sweet. RIP Brian Connolly lead singer, Steve Priest bass guitarist and Mick Tucker drummer

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Cabdriveruk, I had no idea that was about them. That must have been quite the night. I wonder why the audience got so violent toward them. They were such a great band. Yes it is a shame all but one has left us 😢

[@wayne_twentyfive]

I love Sweet ! .. Such a fun band, but they could really rock too .. They started out with a bubble-gum music sound, but gradually became more hard-edged .. The first hit to hint at their heavier style ( while still being very pop ) was 1972's "Wig Wam Bam", which is one of my faves ..But their magnificent "Fox On The Run" from 1974 is just sheer pop / rock perfection, and is IMHO by far their best song !

[@playitagainsue]

Hi Wayne, they are fun and can rock. I don't know wig wam bam. I will have to check it out. I agree, Fox on the run is a fantastic song. That is my favourite by them too. I like Love is like oxygen as well...a little different from them. Thanks Wayne. Have a wonderful day 🤩💜

[@wayne_twentyfive]

@@playitagainsue Oh yes Sue, "Love Is Like Oxygen" was just about their last big hit, and it's one of their very best .. As you say, it was a bit of a different style, but a ripper song ! .. Cheers, Wayne

[@kishka7]

FUN SONG CHOICE!!!

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Kishka, glad you enjoyed it! Nice to hear from you 🤩💜

[@florida52001]

Saw them in concert in the late 70's at the Palladium in NY...they opened for Journey....amazing show

[@playitagainsue]

Hey JT, that must have been a great show! I bet you had a great time 🤩

[@alpinenewtplaysgames4509]

I'm only 44 and I love this tune!

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Alpine, I am so glad you are into this tune. It is great. I hope the generations below us all grab onto it as well. It is classic! 🤩

[@SherriMacintyre-ic7ql]

Moving right along with you girls!!!

[@playitagainsue]

That was a fun one for sure, Sher. Glad you liked it 🤩💜

[@balticstain7150]

Iam absolutely lovingly your reaction ladies fabulous.....try slade now ......a must !!!!!!!!!

[@playitagainsue]

Hi Baltic, thank you so much!! Will do 🤩💜

[@balticstain7150]

@@playitagainsue slade are British band 2 massive in the 70s...

[@sandrabutler8483]

I remember this when it was released, makes me feel old 👵, unsure what happened to the group, not heard much from any of them, but had quite a few hits in the 70's Glam Rock Era along with Marc Bolan who you'll probably enjoy with T-rex

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Sandra, I know. They had a number of hits and then just disappeared. I really don't know much of their back story so I am not sure why they stopped recording but they left us with some great songs, like this one 🤩🧡

[@quikmart1]

I saw these four when they got their eighth vaccine shot together! Really joyful.

[@playitagainsue]

🤣

[@giacomotroisi4618]

You 4 are fantastic❤❤❤❤

[@playitagainsue]

Thanks Giacomo 🤩

[@giacomotroisi4618]

@@playitagainsue you are very welcome ladies

[@giacomotroisi4618]

I was 13 when I first started listning to thier music. And never stopped till they seperated. Then Brian died. Unfortunatly signing the future of the group. A real pity

[@giacomotroisi4618]

Just think. I used go around with a boom box thruogh the high street playing thier music. People looked at me maybe thinking ( is he crazy? ) 😂😂😂😂

[@playitagainsue]

@@giacomotroisi4618 haha you weren't crazy! You just had great taste in music 🤩

[@paultaylor9019]

Brian Connolly the lead singer died in 1997 as a result of kidney and liver failure and repeated heart attacks. He was 51 years old. Mick Tucker died in 2002 and Steve Priest died in 2020.

[@playitagainsue]

Wow, so young. Sounds like Brian had it really tough...poor guy. Did he live life pretty hard or was he just really unlucky

[@SweetSickan]

@@playitagainsue Yes, he had drinking problems

[@playitagainsue]

@@SweetSickan poor guy

[@markmoorhead1]

1st time watching you girls. and loving it. this song reminds me of maybe Black Betty by Ram Jam or smoking in the mens room by Brownsville station love to see what you come up with next.

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Ply-yt thanks so much for your kind words. I appreciate you tuning in. I put a new video out everyday. Thanks so much for subscribing 🤩

[@Mipopico]

I always loved this song. This is from "disco", one of the few German TV shows we had in the 70s...

[@playitagainsue]

Hi Mipo, thanks for letting me know. I wondered where it was filmed. It is such a great song 🤩

[@Mipopico]

@@playitagainsue You're very welcome 🤗

I was enjoying that until I remembered the ear scene……

[@playitagainsue]

[@Kyle_heringer]

Sue, Nina Hagen used to sing this song live but she, unfortunately, never had this one officially released on an album

[@playitagainsue]

Hey Kyle, I bet she rocked this one! This is right up her street 🤩

[@Kyle_heringer]
