I was 10 years old when I bought the first album of The Sweet, now I am 60 years old and for me it was the best band, will always be in my heart, It is always present Andy Scott, you are part of my life.
43 years after its release, and 'Love is like Oxygen' still sounds as fresh as ever!! A classic track by one of the most underrated bands in popular music history!!
Sounds good 👍 But Brian's voice is irreplaceable ❤ R.I.P. Brian, Mick and Steve You guys are unforgotten and forever in my heart ♥️ Long live Sweet-Music with Andy's Sweet 🎶🎤🎸🥁🎶🤘🔥
One of those songs that takes me back to being 10. Can't remember the events of last week but this kicks in and I'm back there - every friend, field, teacher etc. Only music has the power....
"Music has the power", a very good point. If time travel is ever perfected i think it wont involve being sent back to a date but to a tune. Bit weird but based on what you just said...
i'm the same age as you , still got this as a single i was quite into rock then, takes me back to my old record player with stackable records and mono speaker lol
This Song reminds me of 1978, when i Turned 16, a crucial age of every Teen. So i Tell you Herewith: - thanks a Lot for making my Life better with your Songs!

Yep. One of those songs as a kid that just made you go, what is that ! That opening riff grabs you and your like, this is cool ! No clue how many of the guys in the video did it originally but sounded good and brought back memories. Thanks.
73 I wasn´t even born :D Born only 1984,so I never had the chance to see the original line up live :) I only saw the line up with Pete Lincoln as lead singer,he was very good,however I think Paul Manzi,the current lead singer, is the better choice for the rock songs. I still enjoyed all the concerts I saw with Pete as lead singer and I think he is amazing in his band Frontm3n where he performs songs from the sweet. :) If you subscribe my channel,than you would not miss any future uploads :) All the best :)
Steve Priest (RIP) was one of my icons and Sweet started off my musical journey… I remember bumping into you Andy at my cousin’s pub in Chelsea… thanks for your great inspiration… Sweet live on! Blessings mate…
@@Concertsandmore indeed…. But I was a little star struck then at age 22 ( now nearly 40 yrs older!) A lot of water under the bridge since, playing in bands and meeting loads of great musicians and great people…
The reason why 40 odd years ago I became a rocker -Sweet closely followed by Quo and Lizzy Rainbow etc Makes you sad that life has gone so quick but equally grateful to have been brought up on proper music
Thanks for sharing this with us 😊 Brilliant that Sweet makes you become a rocker 😊😊 Please subscribe to the channel so you will not miss future uploads 😊
@@stuartloader4672 The Sweet ticket are about 20 to 30 British Pounds...I think that is a good price compared to what other concerts costs. Thanks for your comment and please subscribe to the channel 🙂🙂
@@Concertsandmore the best memories, a different time when real artists performed. Old bands need to kick back in and jamm it again. It's only old to the young. Great to see and hear. Looking for more. Thanks, for then and for now.
Superb performance, I saw Sweet on a double header with Slade a few years back and I thought this song was the highlight of the entire show. Loved the way they sequed into and out of the ELP number, very slick !
@@Concertsandmore Sweet were very impressive, Slade less so. Slade probably had more hits to play, but for me Sweet were red hot, great vocals and playing, real energy.
incredible original version of the song with extended middle section this is exactly how the real song sounded not the 45 lp wow im astounded and ive always wanted to hear this live ty so much!!
I was in my last year at high school when this was released. Never told any of my punk mates that this was my favourite single at the time and I bought it and played it to death. Still love it to this day, keep rocking guys.
I didn't know what to expect on this vid but damn it was great! The guitar work awesome and the whole band too. I still have the album from back then. Very good!
Andy is keeping the Sweet spirit alive. He has many UK concerts planned for november/december 2021. I will be trying to film some nice videos than. If you subscribe to the channel, than you will not miss future uploads 😊
See how comfortable Andy is talking to this crowd? Like it's his living room with guests? I've been in less known big bands. This man is a fucking rock star.
As an American I am discovering Sweet for the first time. I only knew Oxygen, Fox, Willie, and my favorite Ballroom Blitz. What a great time I am having all by myself tonight.
Thanks for your comment. 😊 Andy is still rocking and keeping the Sweet spirit alive. They plan to tour the UK in november/december 2021 and I plan to record some more songs than. 😊 If you subscribe than you will not miss future uploads 😊

We all hope the pandemic is ending soon. Really hope live music is starting soon. 🙂 In the meantime please feel free to subscribe to the channel as I really hope to upload new content as soon live events are starting 🙂
I was living in Germany (army brat) when this band came out sweet rocks they made their mark in Rock history and I love that I can watch there videos on utube it like I'm 14 again
Seen them at Clitheroe old theatre December 2019 just before all this lockdown bollocks they were on top of their game and the vocal harmonies were bang on.
They were a true super group in every sense of the word. The awesome guitar work in the early albums. Cover bands struggle with the skill these guys had particularly vocal ability. True British music royalty for me during ultra competitive times in the 70s
They were a great studio band but having a number of their 70's bootlegs, not surprisingly, they really struggled to replicate that vocal sound live and often came off sounding quite flat in comparison to the albums. I guess they'd have been fine in the modern "live" era with autotune and backing tracks though. :-)
They are really amazing and I´m hoping to see them as well in 2020 again and film some more songs :) If you subscribe my channel,than you would not miss any future uploads :) All the best :)
Thanks for your comment 😊 Really appreciate that you liked the video. 😊 Please subscribe to the channel, so you will not miss future uploads 😊😊 All the best to you 😊
Brother, we’ve both changed a lot over the past 40-50 years. I haven’t gone bald yet either so I don’t need to dye my wig either. I wish Lady Gaga would send me something too. Your music has held up over the years and it rocks as hard as it did when we were young lads. The Sweet was ahead of its time and will always be one of my favorites.😎
Thanks for your comment 😊 Thank you for sharing your story 😊 As Lady Gaga sends her used wigs to Andy you probably could not get those...maybe Lady Gaga could send you her used glasses? 😂😂
The Sweet' is responcable for bands like KISS, (both Sweet and Alice Cooper) Early quiet riot with Randy Rhodes is (total influenced by Sweet. Sweet influenced twisted sister although they might not be proud of it. I'm sure there are many bands. But I have too say of all the bands The Sweet influenced Casablancas (ANGEL) were probably most likely too succeed. Casablanca should've signed van Halen also instead of righting van halen off as too heavy.Casablanca went bankrupt with Angel. I think Casablanca must've kicked thenselves in the ass everyday.
Wow! What a great song. Was a little kid when this was released. But I still love it. Really the only new release that I do actually remember from that age.
As age tells you to limit your physical extravagances you hope there's someone out there that proves you wrong. I haven't heard or seen Sweet for decades. Love is like oxygen (I don't remember the album name. But I got their lp somewhere in my loft) was one of my favorite compositions. Time gave me new favorits, but when I hear this I'm heading straight back to my loft. My first remembrance of rock music with guitars playing rock and roll with classical references are still one of my most important eye openers in music. It lead me to groups like Sky, 10cc, Elo, Pink floyd, rediscovering The beatles, and a new respect for Mozart, Grieg, Elgar, and a lot of other classical composers. Finding this video was gold for me right now. I love their music and I'm allways greatfull for their imput in my musical evolvment. I just have to find a way that my bad knees can climb the ladder to my attic so that I can blow the dust of my records and rediscover glamrock. I did'nt know they still existed, but I'm very glad they still spreads their magic.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us 😊😊 First of all I really hope your knee is getting better or that someone can get those vinyl's for you from the attic.😊😊 Really amazing that this brought back memories. Andy Scott was basicly always touring...beginning of the 80's was a break otherwise he is always on the road and said a few years ago, that he wanted to retire and did a final tour...he than decided he wants to continue as long as he can.😊😊 Andy wanna rock forever 😎😎
Thanks for your comment. 😊 Andy and his new gus are amazinf and in decembef I plan to see and record videos again. Please subscribe to the channel so you will not missmy uploads 😊😊😁😁
Thanks for posting this timeless group and the timeless song, been listening since it came out. They don't write them like this, which is why I don't listen to much of anything but classic rock, brilliant boys!
Just watched this again, I wish I could see it live. So good. So good. Gonna watch ballroom blitz from the past next. Guys, I introduced sweet to my daughter when she was about 8. Ball room blitz is one of her favorites. But to see this at this age, there's hope for me, lol. Just fantastic.
Totally agree and it seems live music is starting soon so hopefully new uploads will come soon. Feel free to subscribe please so you do not miss future uploads. ☺
It´s amazing the song, only song I personally prefer more is "Ballroom Blitz" :) I hope I see them live again soon,so I can upoad more videos :) Please feel free to subscribe to the channel,so you don´t miss future uploads :)
Original is always the best, I agree on that :) However the current line up is probably the best line up we can get to play the Sweet songs :) I hope I see them live again soon,so I can upoad more videos :) Please feel free to subscribe to the channel,so you don´t miss future uploads :)
I was there listening to this band from the start & although Brian is irreplaceable this band is worthy of his name Roll on the Fire House @ Sunderland !!
