You only have to look at some of the people in the crowd to see your statement is true. A lot of them were not even around when this song came out but they are enjoying "Our music", they were not even around when this Group was around, but look at them .
Yup 100% lip synched. Keyboard plays itself after the beginning. No way these guys can sing those harmonies now, they couldn’t do it live when they were young.
Look at the people folks... The respect and love for the band and their music which has definitely stood the test of time is absolutely amazing... I see all ages dancing n singing the words and having fun nearly 40 yrs later.. Love it
The audience are rehearsed as much as the performers, it's part of the conditions to be allowed in front of cameras, lack of enthusiasm and you're out.
Desgraciadamente para nosotros el tiempo pasó, pero gracias a internet puedo viajar en el tiempo y olvidar por un instante la PORQUERÍA DE MÚSICA DE LA ACTUALIDAD, saludos a todos los rokeros desde Córdoba, Argentina
So Glad I kept all the original Lp's from Sweet..promo's everything...love this group...I miss this music from the day ...music will never be the same as it was then...miss you Mick Tucker , Brian Connolly and Steve Priest...you made the fans happy now you can rest
I have a record player which also has a tape player and a CD RECORDER. I can put records onto CD without a computer. I put 126 tracks from my record collection onto 4 CD's so I can play them in my car. Where are you located, you might still find one on ebay which is where I got mine, but I've had it for quite a while?
What a great classic song! Roller skate to this hit song every weekend at the roller rink from the 80s to 2001! Thank you for sharing. Who else is watching 2025?
How is it possible that this version almost, or does sound better than the original? Lipsynced? Why did they fade out instead of a hard end? Also, there's no way their voices can sound that great at that age. Unless they were constantly playing all these years.
@@TheDude-q1t It's possible they added the audio to the video. It's hard for me to know unless I go to one of their future concerts if they are still on the road unless it's a tribute band.
I have watched this a million times and I envy every last one of u lucky people. Looks like yous were all having a brilliant time What a band What a song Love Billy from Scotland x
I’m 58 years old and love how the 60+ people are dancing, clapping because we lived this music and party time. Meanwhile while the 20-30 year olds are mainly just standing there because they can’t feel this great music or have lived it.
This is Andy Scott's Sweet and there is also Steve Priest's Sweet and as long as someone keeps their music alive I think we should all rejoice because people want to hear their music forever...
I remember this hit from the mid 70s...I was only 10 years of age...Used to play this on my Pityful Portable Picnic Player until the needle ran out from wear & tear. Always brings back the BEST of memories when I was in Primary School. Best times EVER!
Для меня, The Sweet, это прежде всего - Brian Francis Connolly. Просто преклоняюсь перед его творчеством! Последнюю свою песню он спел в 1995-м году... Столько лет прошло, НО! Brian Connolly и его The Sweet, навсегда в моём сердце.
For me, The Sweet band is primarily Brian Francis Connolly. I simply adore his work! He sang his last song in 1995... So many years have passed, BUT! Brian Connolly and his work in the band The Sweet, forever in my heart.
Very good the interpretation , very good the voice of Pete , seems to be the original song and I'm really pleased to see many young people who enjoy listening to the band.
My grandparents had this song on their jukebox in the 70s! I was so young & spent way too much time in their bar / restaurant! I LOVED this song & was excited every time someone played it!
I'd call that pure joy... I'd also call it vastly underrated by the critics of the 70's. Time has spoken, Sweet are here to stay as long as rock lives.
They were all epic in their own sense... But it is so incredibly amazing to see Andy carrying on their legacy and this band did an amazing job his voice is very much like Brian's.. of course there will always be differences but they all did an incredible job!
I am 53 and just love the sweet. They need a movie about the band. Like someone else said they was underrated. My grandkids love them. They great always loved them
Me recuerdo que tenia 7 a 8 años cuando los escuché y aun me encanta su música después de 45 años ya escuchándolos. Una maravilla de entonacion este cuarteto de talentosos musicos SWEET. Gracias por compartir con nosotros este talento musical.
It's so sad the other members are gone have listened to their songs for years but Andy still going keeping the music of this band still alive great songs
Great performance !! Love the band Sweet and sad to see Steve Priest pass away recently RIP. I can say I was at the "right time" when the band was at their peak 1973-1978 (12 years old to 17 years old) to fully enjoy their greatness. This band gave hope to those in their teens in the mid 1970's of starting their own "garage rock band" as their tunes were catchy similar to those in the 1960's as opposed to the played out album rock that was so popular back then.
This song NEVER gets old...Thank you Sweet for many great years of music from the 70's i'm 62 and still crank your songs in my shop ...only if the new Generation new what true music is all about
Sweet lo mejor de lo mejor , que grandes ,sin tanta tecnologia y siguen sonando como el primer dia, que orgullo haber oido y escuchado la gran mayoria de sus exitos .
@@michaellrakes5521 It is recorded for a TV Show so no different from Top of the Pops, perhaps if you read the info you would have clicked to that point. Plus the other comments were being ironic, obviously over your head. No issue with you not liking Sweet but do have with you making puerile, childish comments.
Can someone post some other tunes from Desolation Bullevard? (Other than Ballroom Blitz) Into the Night, Solid Gold Brass, ACDC, Sweet FA etc. I always thought that was an important album for the time.
Amazingly perfect to the recording! How did they do that? Professionals clearly.😅 was this some sort of a Christian camp designed to look like a cruise ship pool?
I remember seeing Brian on tv when he wasn't a well man at all. drugs and the high life had made a mess of him. he's sorely missed. a seriously handsome bastard back in the day. R.I.P. Brian.
It’s to bad the guitar player with the red Strat is the only original member still alive but their music was so awesome it’s just cool that people who never had a chance to see them all alive together still get a chance to hear some great music 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
It’s a blast watching that audience have so much fun. I hope we get through the pandemic soon, so people can safely enjoy watching a concert together again.
This is one of the few songs, where I'd like to hear both versions (the famous Single, and the older album version) live in concert. The earlier version of this song is often overlooked. Fox on the Run is top 10 all-time favorite of mine. and, it wasn't until recently I discovered that there's multiple versions of this song.
Three generations of people at this show. Now that's a great show and a great band. This will live forever.
I don't care what anyone says, we had the best music. Real Rock-N-Roll!
mini playback show
No argument here!
could not agree more best music ever real rock and roll 😊
Yup the 60s were the best, fab yeah.
You only have to look at some of the people in the crowd to see your statement is true. A lot of them were not even around when this song came out but they are enjoying "Our music", they were not even around when this Group was around, but look at them .
I am 52 years old and it is a privilege to hear Sweet again. Excellent band. I danced a lot in the 70s. Thanks Sweet
As a kid? You would hace been 10 or 11 in 1979 if ypu are 52
Yo tengo 66 y cuando los escuché tendría como 16 años
Mate, I turn 60 on Sunday 10th November, 2024. Cheers mate, I think they're great too.
What a great band, loved all their songs, looks like every one is having a great time, brilliant.
Well done Andy Scott for keeping this band on the map.👍👍👍
How in hell those ridiculous playbacks keep this band "on the map"?!
Andy Scott soll der Blitz beim Sch....en treffen!!!!
Can't beat it I was a teenager in 1958 and am now 78 years of age saw all the popstars of the era can't beat them 😊
Eh? I don’t think your maths is correct here. You would be in your 80s if you were a teen in 1958. 😂
Who cares, age is but a number its how you feel inside
@@tommiewatson4343😊
bin 80 und höre sie immer
Sweet should be in the rock and roll Hall of Fame! Long live Sweet forever! 🎤🎶🎸🎵🥁
They were too busy putting rappers and Dolly Parton in instead !!
Obviously lip-synched.
@@SirManfly yes. Non rockers galore. Such crap. Liberace next?
russsia yes
Yeap, even Barry Manilow and Nana Mouskouri are in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame
Was lucky enough to see the original band live. Brilliant 😊
Me too, happy days of my teenage years.❤😊
I'm so jealous 😢
it's 2022 and I still love the song
Brilliant performance! I even loved how they sang and played quieter at the end to fade out, and even stopped playing before the music ended.
Yup 100% lip synched. Keyboard plays itself after the beginning. No way these guys can sing those harmonies now, they couldn’t do it live when they were young.
No guitar leads or speakers is a bit of a giveaway too
Look at the people folks...
The respect and love for the band and their music which has definitely stood the test of time is absolutely amazing...
I see all ages dancing n singing the words and having fun nearly 40 yrs later..
Love it
The music's timeless, the band are mostly dead! Without the original, its just a cheap copy.
Lost very little since 1975 stellar Amazing performance *****
Wish I could have I'm 63
❤
The audience are rehearsed as much as the performers, it's part of the conditions to be allowed in front of cameras, lack of enthusiasm and you're out.
One of my most favourite rock bands since 40 yrs ago till today. Long live Sweet.
Oh !! 70s &80s were the days of songs fun & frolic . I wish those years come back again

Look on youtube.Just type in Fox on the run-live
agreed just another fake over dub fail
Music technology has really moved on. Their amps are tiny.
Such an underrated band. They had such a modern sound for their time.
It's a lip-sync!
so modern now that they don't even need to plug in their instruments 😂😂
Tienes toda la razón 👌🏻
Songs dont get a better than this. Period.

Sound great. Real music! Thanks guys!!
What a great, wholesome, clean, wonderful crowd and location. Great song, but obviously not being played live.
GOD BLESS ALL YOU LADS. 73yrs OLD. EVERYTIME I'M PISSED OFF, PLAY THEIR MUSIC.
As long as that beat is there…still gets me!

Just imagine if Sweet was still performing today i am convinced they would have a massive following, Seen them alive back in the mid 70s Awesome
They are
@@scotsquine7870 well, only Andy left. Hardly Sweet when 75% of the band are not original members.

Poor mans slade
No its a joke !!
No it's not the same
Makes perfect sense
Don't let the music die...
Nice to see lots of young people appreciate proper music
This is absolutely fun. What a huge song this was when I was young
i LOVE SWEET , pure 70's heaven ABSOLUTE ROCKING ICONS !!!!!
Probably one of the first bands my parents played when I was born all those years ago Long live the sweet

I think it's good to see it still being played so I'm not going to knock it, a thumbs up from me.

Es increíble la energía y vitalidad que irradian estos señores en el escenario, más que uno u otro joven en el público. ¡Saludos desde México!
Desolation Boulevard is their signature album. What a masterpiece of work
Good l almost forgot about these guys. One of my all time favourites. Great to be reminded. 🙂
SOO good to know that it was still Brian singing that great song!
Look at all the older folks singing and clapping! Oh crap I am these peoples age!
And so am I... it's great so don't feel bad!
Don't worry about it. We were there, when those guys were big. It was an awesome time!
As Buffett sang, "we ARE the people our parents warned us about ... " :-D
It can't be done without Brian.

How are those guitars working without cables? Where's the synth player. It's all so blatant!
