[@williams.vincent4235]

I'm 60 and I swear the 70's produced the best band music ever! I didn't know that at the time of course thinking it would just keep getting better and better. I'd say around the mid-80's the "decline" was in full swing. The Sweet went from Archie type music to Glam Rock and were a fav of mine as a teen. Only 1 band member still alive - wow.

[@JoinTheProgress]

1990 and on was the decline, there've actually been videos about how measurable it was. In 1989 my friends and I were very excited about the 90's thinking it was going to be a technological miracle, with astounding production quality and sounds, coupled with sheer talents that the world could hardly imagine; instead the exact opposite happened...rap and grunge were forced through as the industry standards due to how cheap they were both to produce and how the talents weren't nearly as expensive (because they had so much less talent). Vocal skill sets, instrumental skills, compositional skills...ALL went right down the toilet for cheaper-everything. They sold it to the kids, the kids bought it, and music history was permanently altered. There have been *some* hints of change more recently, but they're still not "the standard" that there once was in the commercial arena. They're still all on the side while commercial music is all computer generated and computer honed (such as for vocals, no one even needs to really be able to sing any more, with very few exceptions). And lyrics are all garbage now compared to the poetry of our time. Polyphia is an exception to the return of the skill sets. And very little positive, upbeat and fun stuff like Sweet (who are also all talented musicians) exists any longer. To end on a positive, kids ARE discovering the old music. I know a 19 year old who listens to a lot of 60's and 70's music. He was also home-schooled which I find interesting.

Man sounds like u had it made would've given anything to have lived in London in the 60s and 70s with the British invasion and glam rock all those little bands in those little clubs just starting out would have been right up my alley

OMG! That haircut, it was so perfect, and never a hair out of place. B r i a n C o n n o l l y - Taken far too soon, he was my first love, God he was so gorgeous and such an amazing singer, you only have to listen to the various Sweet songs over the years. You are sadly missed by all your adoring fans, Brian.xoxo

About 1:47, Brian sure knew how to shake that tush! I love how in some of their videos they turn around backwards and give us girls something to smile about. 😻😛

[@onlymusic2524]

Talented group - I hope Brian and the boys made it to heaven. This band always gets the mums, dads and grans up on the dance floor at parties - great camp, innocent and light-hearted entertainment with a rock 'n' roll big top extravaganza twist.

[@beverleyr2625]

I absolutely loved these guys back in the 70's. I wanted my hair cut into the same style as Brian - I'm 58 now and I've finally achieved it! Don't know why the hairdresser couldn't do it back then but hey, better late than never. RIP Steve Priest - you, Brian, Andy and Mick brought some sunshine into the dreary days of the 70's when we had power cuts and our parents were working a 3 day week!

[@lottalove2449]

You have their haircut, now, in 2020??

[@beverleyr2625]

@@lottalove2449 Like Brian's yes - with the fringe and the angled feathering down the sides to the front. There are a lot of women who have had that cut for a few years now - it was kickstarted again by Jennifer Aniston from Friends!

The SWEET were so typical of many of the Groups of that era.So talented, all larger than life characters.Stage presence, charm, charisma they had the lot.Always thoroughly enjoying themselves, imo one of the Greatest British Bands of all time.Musically I believe never given full credit, forget about their image,, I think this hid their tremendous musical ability, in these wonderful tracks, that stand the test of time.We will never see their like again,Newbies. LOOK,LISTEN and....LEARN.

[@glamdolly30]

+dw69ful Well said, I so enjoy watching their performances on You Tube, they always gave it their all and looked like they were having so much fun. They didn't give a toss about being cool - and so they were cooler than anyone! God bless 'em, great artists and it's wonderful that we can still see them performing in their prime They were something very special.

[@brucebaconstein406]

[@stuartgoldberg9545]

There were horribly managed. While they enjoyed early success with Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman writing their songs, Sweet had no control over their music. The were forced into bubble gum glam because they were young and good looking. As you correctly pointed out, they were very musically talented, and wanted the artistic freedom to produce more than bubble gum. By the time they were able to take more control over their careers, Brian Connolly's issues hurt the band. In 1974, they were to tour with the Who, but Connolly had an injured throat from a bar fight and couldn't sing. Connolly's alcoholism led to health issues and other problems, as Sweet continued to self destruct while trying to find their way. By 1979, Connolly was no longer with the bad. Weird thing is, if Connolly had cleaned up his act, and the band was able to hold together, they could have made it big again in the 1980's. There were perfect for the glam/hair metal of the 1980's.

[@janborrowitz]

One of the greatest British Bands together with Beatles and Judas Priest

i totally agree they were and are an under rated band.

What a fantastic song by one of my all time favorite bands, I learned to play the drums from the age of six watching all Mick Tucker's drum beats I owe most of my drumming skills to him, this song still goes down well at every gig I do, Brilliant👍👍👍

He was a good drummer to learn from. He had some mad skill! Love his work in the hard rock phase from about late 73 to 77 or so. The Give Us a Wink, Sweet FA, and Desolation Blvd albums have some incredible drumming!
