The Sweet! Incredible to think that a top quality version of this band still exists in 2024. Andy Scott is a very humble man who clearly lets the music do the talking. I have heard four advance tracks off the new Sweet album. Absolutely outstanding! This lineup may not have the youthful glamness of the classic 4 piece, but they nail all the vocal harmonies to perfection, and are tremendous musicians. I hope sincerely the new album is not the end of the Sweet journey ... There is still so much more for The Sweet to say,
I first saw Sweet in Melbourne at Festival Hall in 1975. Later saw Andy and Mick’s version and later again saw Brian on what was his last trip to Australia. I’m now in Brisbane and will see Andy for the last time soon. A final goodbye to what was a great time in music. I’ll forever be one of The Six Teens ❤
i think my fav Sweet story was a story in a music mag in the mid '70's a journo went on tour with them in the US i think and he interviewed one of the band members backstage said we'll go into the room next door where it's a bit quieter...they sat down and next minute there's a bang..the interviewer looks around and there's a guitar neck hanging out of hole in the plasterboard wall..Andy sticks his head around the door and says ''Just trying to tune the fucker''..lol
I was part of the security for Sweet at the Villa Marina Isle of Man, circa 78. Great night. A few years later I wrestled at the same venue, happy days.
They did Fox On The Run. That song is one of the first things I remember at 4 years old seeing it on Countdown. Loved it, used to go around the house singing it and my siblings would tease me for it for years after about how much I loved the song. Thanks man
What a proper Gentleman He is. I like how they banter a bit about the weather at first. Like proper older people. I always had a feeling that Andy was really the heart and soul of The Sweet. w/o his guitar, writing, and very unique soprano range, they wouldn't have reached the heights. As sharp as a tack he is too still, mentally, and memory is an iron trap. Makes me wonder if he is taking green tea extract or other supplements to stay so vigorous upstairs.
Your saying long hair doesn't work on older men? I agree, I have long hair and it doesn't work for me anymore at 57. I had long hair when long hair was no longer fashionable during early eighties, Chics no longer dated guys with hair. It was forbidden , NOT allowed to watch guys with long hair length'. But we knew many attractive women who thought for themselves (minds of their own) They liked guys who weren't typical. (Women liked assholes who played bands, who talked shit on other bands) MTV. MTV wanted to ban any hard rock metal band videos back in 1984. Preppy was in style. Feeble top 20 billboard music Bruce Springsteen. Pink Floyds dark side moon was still on billboard top 20) LMAO pink floyd. Laughin.

By the time love is like oxygen 78 Sweet changed . (The band (Angel upgraded (Sweets image) during mid to late 70s. The'Sweet' was ahead of time. If you Google 'sweet' and open images' Early 'sweet' looks like KISS 'without' heavy KISS make up. (KISS's image was influenced by (sweet) and Alice cooper. But the The 80s forced metal underground.

God Bless Sweet!
Andy is right on top of it - all views, listens, likes and subs can be bought.

Hola Andy que Dios te siga bendiciendo con el don de la vida y el talento ❤ Medellín Colombia
Brings back memories of the seventies .
Love the Ballroom Blitz anecdote 💦. “Things that would cover body parts” 13:45 😂. Thanks to Sweet for coming to Perth!

So sweet!! 💝
Andy Always Had A Proper Thick Long Head Of Hair. A Proper Barnet.
QSP second album would be great Andy.
❤❤❤
That hair is real
Windy City riff is very similar to Deep Purples "Woman From Tokyo. Who stole from who 🤔😂
Gandalf rocks!
He needs to get together with Edgar Winter
I Have A mop Too.
With that wig , he looks like a Morlock from "the Time Machine" film !
It’s his real hair
I get that he's trying to keep the glam part alive but the wig looks ridiculous on a man of his age and stature
WIG
His hair looks ridiculous
It's utterly embarrasing, innit !
It’s his real hair
@@JCStorm76 well it does him no favours it looks like a badly made wig.

@@bridgettereynolds3632 Well I like it
He does need to lose the wig
It’s his real hair
It has nothing to do with his guitar playing…
It’s not a wig!
