great song thats puts them up there with rest of them pity they didnt do reading rock or whistle test show they never capitolised on anything after they couldnt do charlton back in 74
andy said we were not asked they should have been screaming at the managers and the powers to be to get them on festivals ect a lot of it is down to themselves wasnt to be. shame one of the all time great rock bands
I love how they took the best bits of Zeppelin Queen DP and the Who and mixed em all together to make tunes like this one..and many others from this album and the previous three.
This tune for me defines sweet. Not coz it's their best song - though it's good!!! - but coz all the elements that made up sweet are there: beutiful high pitch vocals, beutiful leadvocals, hard guitars, furios on-beat drumming (man, he was a brilliant drummer!!!), and steve priests voice. "Walked down the street, there's nobody there". Man, they were a great, hard rock band! Funny Funny that they were best known for their bubblegum hits.
These guys should have been catapulted so far ahead of their time, I learn more and more about them through ytube videos and say they were just incredible and so underrated. They were foundations for others that followed.
These musicians have been the presence, the force, the angelic and powerful voices, the beauty of the Hard Rock. They opened the doors in order that other bands were learning to do demanding music.
The sound effects of this band also were an innovation because they took them beyond the rock and Roll.
Many current bands have received the influences of these stars.
i had this on cd till some clown stole it ...it was expensive too on the german repertoire records label which i had to order...lucky i still have my old vinyl.
She gives me love and I'm ALRIGHT!! Great job on this video! You did my boys right. One of the greatest band's of all time.Seen 'em every time they came to the states.Hung out with them a few times and they were the funniest and down to earth people you'd ever wanna meet. They should have been huge in the U.S. but you know how that goes. Once again great job on the video.How did you know this was one of my favorites by them
@TheJetfighter666 You lucky thing! You hung out with the great Sweet!!!????? Did you talk to the great Brian C? Please tell me more. What did you think of him?
@astonmerrygoldfan09 Well, My favorite time was in Hartford Conn.Got to hang with the whole group and drink on their bar tab! It was the third time hanging with them.Brian was very friendly as was Andy and Steve.I was in total awe of Brien but tried not to show it. I think that is why they liked my buddy and me, We just talked shop and music.Inside we were dying just to be close to them.I was star struck, Although I had hung with many stars by then.I got to meet Brian's aunties from Scotland.and
@astonmerrygoldfan09 This dude Andy Caine who said he was Brian's brother?At the bar we were getting drunk and Brian had his arm around me at the bar. My favorite singer and group and there we were buddy buddy. Amazing! As with the other times Brian got too drunk and a roadie and us escorted Brian to his room where he passed out on his bed.We stayed and talked with the roadie then he woke Brian up to say we were leaving.He shook our hands and we went back to the band and we closed that bar down

When i bought the album in '77 the sound-effects of this song 2'50-3'10 were very modern no to say futuristic at the time.
Can't get enough of the awesome solo.
Off the record is a timeless album: good then, good now, good for ever!
