FIGHT the evil TOGETHER, in peace, no chaos because that's exactly what the evil wants and needs!! Let no one divide WE THE PEOPLE!! The evil need divided countries. Together we're a HUGE force to fight against. No time to be ignorant and obeying now. ONE PEOPLE ONE LOVE ❤️

Born in 1972- what a fantastic childhood I had with music, tv and films! Watching this is like stepping into a Time Machine! I remember the faces so well.

[@satindergrewal6995]

It was a time that we could not forget because the way of life in Britain was so different to how it is today and in a way it was good that if someone tried to get in touch by phoning the pub where you drank the barman or who ever answered the phone would walk over and say are you here or not That was was brilliant as you could could say yes or no We can't do that no more more

[@colinlock-lv9vv]

What a fantastic live band, they encourage the ladies up to jive with them. I've seen them several times, and I'm hoping to see soon. First I got to get my friend to come with me. I'm 71 now and I would love to see them. I annoy the neighbours while I'm cleaning dancing around to their music. Such brilliant bands came out of the 70's ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Love this group fab music great singing love the different colours of their suits

[@rivermoon6190]

I was a teenager when this came out and this brings back such happy memories. That was the time when not only we listeners enjoyed the music but you can see the band were having a brilliant time too. I feel so sad for youngsters today - they have the likes of Cardi B, Rap and Kardashians as their heroes. How music has fallen. Like all entertainment in the West, it has been deliberately dumbed down to the lowest common denominator.

Представьте себе,что мне удалось увидеть их номер по телевизору году в 1976-77. В Тбилиси,моем родном городе, была телепередача покруче московской "Мелодии и ритмы зарубежной эстрады"( и на радио, кстати,тоже), где ( о ужас для кремлёвского начальства) рассказывали о рок - музыке) и даже показывали это по телевизору! К сожалению,в особенности роком я тогда не интересовалась,так что названий групп я помню два:" Шоваддивадди" и ВЕЛИКИЕ" THE SWEET"(последних я потом купила себе гибкую грампластинку( если Вы жили в СССР,то помните,что в свое время выпускались такие: с одной стороны - 2 наши песни, с другой- 2 не наши).

[@michaelburland5175]

This came out when I was 10 years old. They won a talent competition on TV with this. It was the first song that caught my attention as a young boy. For a while they were my favourite group. ( I've still got the album Red Star.)
