Sweet - The Ballroom Blitz - ZDF Fernsehgarten 27.07.2008 (OFFICIAL)

[@Lmatthews-u4c]

This was my favorite Song When I was 14 years old, I was living en South America in Chile, I just wanted to get out from school and get home, Because I new that the radio Will play this song everyday.

[@ВладимирОборин-ь4о]

Боже! Свит! Как я давно не слышал эту песню, да и группу. Надо диск включить. Память обновить. Спасибо интернету- машине времени.

[@Superchick2]

I know! I noticed all the Senior citizens, too! LOL! Well, The Sweet did come onto the scene in the early 1970s, so the people in the audience no doubt have been fans of the band for 50 years!

This is a Classic on the ZDF (Translated to Second German Television) since about the 90s. It is a Show where alot Perform. In General, the ARD and ZDF are more for the Elderly..

[@unmea69l8er]

I think it's good to see the music still being played so I'm not going to knock it, a thumbs up from me.

More... More... More of them. Danke ZDF Fernsehgarten. Die Leute um die 50 vermissen solche Songs, solche Bands. Das waren unsere Highlights als wir noch tanzen konnten und jung waren ohne KK-Rezept.

[@christinemclatchie]

Absolutely!

This song is SO SWEET. great video!!!

[@ex-scientia4234]

You can never replace real band members and everyone has such emotionally charged memories of them - of course it’ll never been the same, but the song isn’t half bad and the singer’s voice also (even though it’s recorded). At least they haven’t given up and Andy Scott is still keeping the original songs alive. Without him sweet is all but dead and buried, and that’s the real tragedy.

[@tichisdiaz4977]

Se escuchan chingón....... Increíble que los escuché cuando tenía 10 años con esta misma canción.😍😍😍😍😍

[@torridcharcrop]

Brian, Mick, Steve, and Andy were The True Sweet

Как жаль, что так рано ушли из жизни ребята, всего один и остался, почему же так произошло, ведь они еще столько смогли бы нам дать своих песен. Не хватает их, обидно до слез.

lip singing for sure. it sounds exactly the same as the recorded version.

Понятно, что это не живой звук, это монтаж. Чтобы нормально звучало на улице --это надо по крайней мере киловаттный аппарат. Это я утверждаю как музыкант, игравший на аппарате Динаккорд в 10 киловатт, в огромном зале выставочного комплекса... Слышал как Свит звучали живьем -- есть разница со студией, заметная, хотя и живьем они звучат отлично. Да и не в том дело. Дело в том, что данный видео-сюжет ставит задачу показать -- не смотря на возраст группа жива и востребована. Лично я очень уважаю эту рок-формацию, их музыка светлая, красивая, динамичная, это всегда праздник. Рад, что они ещё есть !
