THE SWEET-1990 in London 1

[sharonann3344]

its so sad to see brian like this rip brian we will miss you

[No1TaffWill]

What was wrong with Brian Connoly, was it drink? I know he had hangups about being adopted

[hearditman]

Mick Tucker looks like Peter Kays "Geraldine"

[eartant]

@hearditman I was thinking he looks a bit like Vince Noir in 'The Mighty Boosh'.

[BRETTDREAMWEAVER61]

Brian Francis Connolly -- a true rock n roll hero and good bloke. He didnt always have the shakes, quite easy to have better days than others with his particular problems. In pt 2 he's a lot better in my opinion & still speaks the language of a star, some of his comments about things are superb. That bit were they are sorting out the whos gonna do the station ids quacks me up every time. Many people would give almost anything to see Brian live again, even early 90s circa, hes missed that much

[xena6268]

andy is a bore i think he bored brian out of the band

[TheHendonKissArmy]

I was there that day and got my DES boulevard album signed by all 4. The staff at tower records were taking mickey out of poor Brian.

He still went onto to play some gigs as BC Sweet before his untimely death.

I visit his plaque at Breakspear Crem and Chorley wood cemetery regularly to pay my respects to Brian and Mick.

No one could touch The Sweet in the early 70's

[ASTMA193]

Everyone who drinks too much should watch the clips of Brian. He's beyond help here. Shame :(

[sylvie833]

for all you sweet fans like me theres a good book the man who sang blockbuster it tells how it was miss you brian bet you rock in heaven x

[superrsoakerr]

Aaaawwww Brian...:( He was my GOD, his voice has been heaven to my ears from a very early age. Just heartbreaking seeing him like that, so sad..

[dasvortex]

@superrsoakerr At least Mick Tucker looked ready to rock . I agree withe you on on Brian , but just know and be sure that he had a life that ROCKED !

[pfordsq]

Was this '90? I have the Sweet documentary , where they're talking about this reunion attempt , and Brian sounds like it would mean more to him than anyone , but , he obviously was'nt up to it. They toured the states in '90 , Mick and Steve , with Mel McNulty(Later in "Slade"). It was'nt THEE Sweet , but , it was a great show. Even when Andy came back , twice, it was a good time. Some of these bands and singers are better than others , none can touch the originals. But , we all know that.

[townwood]

A reunion??? I think no.

It's obvious that Andy is the leader and thinking nothing of poor Brian.

Brian had a great voice! It was doomed to succeed because of Andy's reluctance

to start again with Brian.

It's all about the money…

[frehleysboots]

Oh God this brings back painful memories, I met Brian in the Hippodrome this year 1990, and he just looked so ill, bless him

[SilverTounge85]

This is sad to watch. Connoly had no voice left to do the reunion, he was shaking, looking terrible. Basicly he was a dying man. R.I.P.

[ATOMIKDOG23]

Brian was great but he looks drunk in this vid

[MrLayford65]

Brian Connolly was one of the best rock singer in the 70s unbelievable voice.

RIP

[rubberdildos]

They had their time

[devtrev]

This is the most depressing thing I've ever seen.

[trident1702]

I'm sure that the rest of the band must have seen it as a lost course to get back in business with Brian. He was a wreck at that moment! Poor sod!

[space2004]

Sad to see brian like that

[bajen377]

This is very sad really. I used to love The Sweet in the 70's, bought all the singles that came out. I didn't even know that they were planning to get back together in 1990, but all I can say is that Ibought a dblCD with them a few months back. My wife saw Brian Connoly's Sweet in the 80's in London. It was marvellous. The whole crowd that was there looking at the show, looked like they came from out of the year 1974...

[junequeenofscots]

i know brians a mess but id like to smack this bitch in the mouth for the condescending way she's talking as if poor brian isnt even there.

[mitts61]

The bio movie:

Mick- played by Dana Carvey;

Andy - played by Mike Myers;

Steve - played by Kathy Kinney;

Brian - played by Keith Richard;

[dmacnic]

@mitts61

Very accurate! lol

[MbootwoKcoonie]

THESE GUYS ARE WERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE GODS SO FUCK OFF HATERS

[musicfreak1967]

Here is to be seen clear: Brian had arrived at the end of his way. R. I. P. Brian and Mick.

[BOLLOCKS1968]

To bad his mates could'nt help dig Brian out of the hole he was in. PEACE!!

[townwood]

I agree. It's difficult to relate to an alcoholic, but I believe they let Brian down.

Story tells, that when they at the time in '79, wanted him out of the band, they forced him to sing in a note he couldn't sing, and therefore gave him the sack.

[endora60]

@BOLLOCKS1968 From what I've read, including Steve Priest's self-serving/cover-your-ass book, Brian's bandmates didn't even try to help him escape his demons. They just got out of his way and out of his world--and let him sink.

[mg196]

Holy shit...everyone is right, it's damn depressing. Everyone looks pretty embarrassed to be sitting there.

[RockyG1978]

They should make a movie about THIS band. So sad. You think the Joy Division movie was depressing?

[iFabianX]

Good to see them still having humor. Even Brian. I feel sorry for him. He was a strong man!

[keinwegzuruck]

I really miss Brian, but he couldn't continue living like this. Seeing him in this state is so depressing. I'm sure it was for his family, too.

[cplegogame25]

it's so sad to see brian like this, too bad the people around him all these years couldn't help him kick the booze. he was a wonderful singer with a great band. so much talent and diversity.

[DIANIXT84]

I still love you. Brian.. I felt sad for Brian :(

[pvujanov]

Damn! Brian's state in this clip is sooo depressing. RIP, buddy!

[MrSambillabong]

I know its old but what should they say Brrian is a wreck steve is a ligher ,mick look like a ro ckstar and andyis like a manager,What a rockband?

[Manikkonduct]

Brian looked so ruff booze kills a lot of people i lost my bro at 33 because of that shit. R.I.P brian

[above18y0utub3r]

They missed their chance - they should have done a HUGE stadium gig supporting The Who in '73, but Brian got beaten up!!

Had they done this, I reckon they'd have stayed in the original line-up longer .What might have been . . eh!

I seriously don't think Andy ever got over it!

[000silversurfer000]

What happened ?? pls

[Vince1303]

What a pity it never happened. No amount of makeup could ever hide the fact that Brian was severely ill. It is so sad.

[supika23]

左から、スティーブ、ブライアン、ミック、アンディ？？？？

[jamiethejoker26]

Lol. 5:12 - 5:13

[GuitarGirl2212]

Thanks for uploading. This interview was already on here before but it got deleted. I was sad. :(

But now it's back. So I'm happy! :)

[malcolmyoungrules]

There is a secret, hidden satanic message in this video. Hit pause as soon as you see the picture, and observe Steve Priest. What could it mean?

[sk8erguy011]

what??

[Sweet4everforum]

No way-Steve Priest is the exorzist!

[devtrev]

@malcolmyoungrules It means he's got mucho snot up that nose.

[Brusselsprout06]

well.... they still have the most awesome hair of any band EVER!!!!!!

[leanda27]

tar very muchly 10 minutes of the guys is very precious to this fan.
