[@gregshea1018]

Without a doubt the 70s was the greatest era for fun, quirky, uplifting music. It's a shame the revolution faded.

[@happychappy12]

I'm with you buddy, all of the way...........🤩🤩

[@1923gino]

Great song from a great era, So many fantastic memories.

[@mikefudpucker648]

Reminds me of the good old days of Count Down! What a blast from the past! Love it.

[@jakobglocke7764]

Saw them live , one of the few POP bands that actually played their own instruments. Much underrated.

[@akegan]

Always mucho loved

[@walburgavondrachenberg2496]

One of the funniest bands of my youth in the seventies !

[@electronraygun6346]

This song used to have me and my sisters in hysterical laughter when my dad used to play this in the car! Now it always cheers me up! :-D

[@geekpie100]

The endless summer of 76. I often ask people if they remember half a dozen hits from that year. They nearly all remember this.

[@ddanson5831]

Great Summer but a late starter.

[@annetteelliott1494]

Great days of pure pop and masterful fun. They came they saw and never hung around long but the memory endures!

[@keithrich8373]

[@debbiecclark6538]

70s best ever. Loved this

[@kazzielm]

No, I spent my childhood looking at Roxy albums trying to find a track called 'Glass of Champagne!'

[@costadelsol6826]

You were right mate - Georg's vocal on it sounds too much like Brian Ferry's

[@Knapps62]

I think Bryan Ferry sang it on an advert for M&S.

[@andreasboose5611]

​​@@Knapps62no, this Song was written ( lyrics and music ) by the Leadsinger and Founder of Sailor: Georg Kajanus

[@andreasboose5611]

I know whatt you mean..it sounds a little bit like "Virginia Plain" but ..much better ❤

[@1968tomf]

Das Lied kenne ich auch schon über 40 Jahre. Großartig!

[@CliveWrigglesworth007]

Excellent!

[@kevwitt9010]

[@Suderburger]

Toller Klang und toller Rythmus, mit dem alten Nickelodeon. Damals einzigartig, und heute unvergessen. Der Nickel-Odeon-Saund.

[@camrober]

Great group, good fun, great tunes.

[@vincent-maximilianschneide4285]

Schön daß das heute noch im Radio läuft

[@djpetrov3668]

Anniversary!!!🎉 1974 - 2024 50 years of Sailor!😊 Congratulations!❤

[@melbomartin]

It was pop, in the purest sense of the word. Catchy and memorable. I loved bands like that and have a lot of great memories of that time.

[@elliottg.1954]

Sailor were popular in 1976, great on so many levels. Phil Pickett went to play with Boy George and wrote several well-known songs. He's a double Ivor Novello Award-winning English composer. You maybe heard his stuff in TV commercials too. At their peak - remember this is mid-1970's - Sailor were bigger than Queen.

[@Sailormarinero]

And here in Germany they had a big comeback with several hits in the 90s in the original line-up. They continued to tour (in various line-ups) until 2014! Totally underrated, the guys.

[@elliottg.1954]

@@Sailormarinero Yeah, these bands were welcome and appreciated in Germany, and Japan, more than in Britain. Rock music maybe gets an hour a week in UK, if it's lucky.

[@bargainboymakem1]

I looked this band up after listening to Johnny on Radio X today. A pupil of the drummer (now a teacher) "Mr Serpell" gave him a shout out. Gotta say this is a class song. It's an ear worm for sure.

[@dahooliii]

Das ist unglaublich,wie ein Lied so sehr abgehen kann.

[@xanthippe9757]

Man geht selbst ab, bei dem Lied...Yeah, yeah, yeah!

[@sonnim2682]

Herrlich vor mittlerweile 40 Jahren habe ich mit meiner besten Freundin i von Georg Kajanus geträumt es ist alles wie gestern als ob es gestern gewesen ist.....

[@richardleigh9161]

Such a great song And great band

[@silviazuber336]

könnte ich stundenlang hören super gut die Band

[@deborahcrossley525]

Brilliant.

[@Neptuneman07]

Fun tune.

[@warrenyoung684]

I'm celebrating my memories over a few stubbies of Coopers Red..👍💯

[@m2mark1]

Tremendous...class of the 70`s ...maybe 80`s

[@shanemoore8055]

i was living in germany that year 1976, it was a massive hit.

[@UberGlenn66]

Me Too!! :) Mannheim!

[@suitbertglocke5020]

yes, this song was No. 1 in germany for a short time than for a long time in spring 1976 No. 2 between march and july

[@mikekavanagh8952]

A real oldie.

[@stephenryan1807]

as of all of their songs there is a hidden meaning only an old mariner would know but just enjoy great music

[@nightfly4481]

...YESTERPLAY !! VERY NICE. thx. for U.L. brings me back to the good old musicdays.

[@SuperMarkbrewer]

They were coming to our school to give a concert the week before the concert this came out needless to say they never came never forgotton that !!!!!!!!

[@FiestaTitanium09]

Einfach ein megageiles Lied ...hatte es damals als 11 Jähriger total gemocht...und erinnert mich an die früheren geilen 70iger zeiten!!!! leider wird heute unsere Nachjugend sie so nicht mehr erleben dürfen und auch wollen vermutlich.

[@CAPVICIOUS]

ich auch finde gut das. hehe ;-)

[@kenforee48]

Mich kannst/könnest du ausschließen, ich mag das lied und das obwohl ich noch 20 werde! Und ich kenne z.b ABBA, Boney M, Queen (Freddie Mercury), Smokie (Chris Norman) und höre mir gerne diverse Songs von denen an z.b Take a chance on me von ABBA oder Rasputin von Boney M!

[@lvcarccrdi.4986]

Robin DeGrave ich werde bald 15 und höre auch (regelmäßig!) Boney M. und ABBA. Mag die aktuelle Musik manchmal einfach nicht.😉

[@lloydpratt1376]

I remember seeing this on Supersonic. I loved that show.

And... cue Sailor, roll camera 3....

Fab!

[@frankpaterson9786]

This song just brings back great memories of , of all places , Wells-next-the-sea.

[@craigsimons817]

Frank Paterson I agree! My childhood holidays there from the mid 70s and 80s. I visited there a few weeks ago and its hardly changed a bit. The beach is beautiful.

[@Kashmir1907]

Das war es. Diese Single mußte ich haben........

[@MolinaBolero]

Das Lied ist Klasse

[@timeeagle77]

Cool war damals 15....kurz vorm durchstarten in die Disco ;-) Geiler Song mit vielen Erinnerungen an "die Gute Alte Zeit ;-)

🙌🎶💫🎶🙌Great Music🎶💫🌻🌟

[@Kashmir1907]

Es gigt meiner Meinung nach keine andere Band, die jemals erfolgreich mit einem Nikeledeon aufgetreten ist.

[@jorgkrolow8789]

Das lief immer auf unseren Klassenfeten

[@Creighton-Jones]

I remember this back in 1976. This video would appear to have been an appearance on ITV's "Supersonic". I used to particluarly like that show as it included much of Director's instructions from the Gallery with Mike Mansfield directing - "Stand by studio, Good luck everybody, cue Titles and roll Supesonic" IIRC. Thanks for uploading.

[@ShikiraPressley]

I got the figure yet would prefer wine thanks! 💜💛💙🧡💜💛💙🧡Love it!

[@dahooliii]

Hör ich immer noch sehr gerne.

[@scottmcfadyen8921]

Top tune

[@Phi1l]

This would have won Eurovision hands down

[@keithrich8373]

Certainly would.Quirky and catchy tune.

[@andymatthews7617]

Bloody right, its total junk and a circus now, utter garbage.

[@GarySUPERTRAMPER]

Long Live the Seventies!

Good old memories!

[@MEDYK1961]

Bardzo popularny kawałek w Polsce! Dzieki Trójce i Markowi Gaszyńskiemu.

[@badwolfat]

Ich kenne den Song auch nur durch 'Jumping all over the world' und find das Original hier auch (selbstverständlich) um Welten besser, auch wenn's 9 Jahre älter ist als ich selbst :-p

[@davidsingleton1371]

great song

[@johnwhittle5910]

Great song take me back to the seventys

[@jgm64productions]

Always thought this was Roxy Music... fantastic :)

[@valleybach]

Lol ....I could have sworn it was Cockney rebel .... I was a young teen when this came out

[@bonniebianco5918]

"A Glass of Champagne", issued late the following year from the Trouble album, reached #2 in the UK Singles Chart.

[@pamelaarlous1083]

I had the Trouble album, who didn't. Wish I had it still.
