Oh boy, does this bring back awesome memories back in high school, when this was released. Sending as many healing vibes Jimmy's way during his healing process - get well soon Barnsey, we all love you to bits, and wanna see you back on your feet asap. You rock Jimmy ❤🤟
Hi Roslyn, a great song, coming out of the Stagedoor Tavern in Sydney after seeing the boys, filled up on my bottle of Branda vino , a terrible drink but it was cheap.
As an oldie you can see how great it was for us to grow up listening to Cold Chisel and other bands of that era. Cruising the highways with the car stereo wound up, it didn't get any better than that.
@@Aussieforever I bought that HQ Monaro in the early 90's, still have it. It's my retirement fund now lol, I can't believe how much they're worth these days.
@@FionaEm classic era for me when I lived in Australia from 81/86, Remember playing chisels Radio songs on cassette driving through the western suburbs of sydney and down to cronulla beach during late 1985 I reckon! Happy days , still playing it back home now in Stoke-on-Trent. Saw cold chisel on rare uk tour back 2012 🇬🇧🇦🇺🎸😊
I still remember how you were either Skyhooks or Sherbert. I was Skyhooks. And also Divinyls, Australian Crawl, Midnight Oil, Hunters &Collectors, and Hoodoo Gurus. All as good live as on vinyl, or cassette 😊
I'm a new fan and I've lost a whole week reminiscing to Barnesy, John Farnham and Johnny Diesel hits on your channel. I just love love love your reactions, and seeing them through your eyes Dominic ♥️
79 i was 10 when this song came out 70's 80's Aussie music i grew up with just like Cold Chisel, Inxs, Midnight Oil, Radiators, Angels, Ice House Screaming Jets, Rose Tattoo & many more.
I was 10 also 👍. I grew up in a musical family so I was surrounded by all genres of music from the 50s onwards. My brother was mates with the midnight oil drummer Rob Hirst. But 70s and 80s are my faves. I like a little bit of everything. Radiators gimme head is one of my fave songs. I didn’t know what I was singing and dancing to half the time I just knew if I liked the music and the beat, I liked it😂
I was 12 in 79. These bands inspired me to form my own band so i could sing or scream these sings as tribute. Add that my band had the best of music but no talent just added to my deep love. At 55 i still play these bands every day.
@@SmilingTiger67 me to buddy not every day but regularly unfortunately they now on CD 💿 i no longer have my record player but i still have every single vinyl record i ever bought.
Bit of a back story. I beleive Sweethearts was an actual diner that catered to the party goers and "working" girls of kings Cross in Sydney through the 70s and 80s (maybe earlier as well). It has been demolished now but was an iconic part of that time and place. Also, much love to Jimmy, hope his surgery goes well and we can see him on a stage again soon.
Correct, Sweethearts was a cafe and a King's Cross icon for many years and breakfast at Sweethearts was a traditional end to a long night in the 'cross. Anne Maria was a waitress (and IIRC part owner) for 15 plus years, known to cop and crim alike. Sweathearts finally met its end when it was firebombed once too often (calling the area somewhat sketchy would be an understatement especially back then) and they gave up. Funnily enough, it did relocate at least once in its history but it was never on Campbel Lane. Its last location was roughly where McDonalds is now.
Lived in Potts Point (part of Kings Cross) for a few years in the 70’s, I ate there a couple of times - but mostly I couldn’t afford the prices at Sweethearts, where you could have alcohol at any time of the day including breakfast time. My regular cafe was the Astoria, where you could have a very plain meal, like lamb cutlets and vegetables with free tea or coffee for $1.75 - used to go there once a fortnight when my pay came in. The Piccolo in Roslyn street was the best, and ‘the Place’ in Bayswater road.
Sure was the cross was place for those people still kicking on when clubs and pubs shut and was those not wanting the night to end what better place the Cross Great memories
They were such good songwriters. They could do anything! I never get sick of hearing their music - and I'm old enough to remember when this song came out!
While staying in kings cross sydney Had breakfast at sweethearts restaurant many times before going to set up our bands equipment ..yeah they had pancakes
Here I am, just sitting here watching your reaction, mouthing the words, getting into it. Heard this song so many times it doesn't matter how many times you stop it and talk, getting right into your reaction👍👍❤️❤️🇭🇲🇭🇲
That's the best thing about Chisel they had so many different sounds. Alot of bands stick to a formula and regurgitate the same sound over and over. 🎼🎵🥰
Jimmy was 23 yrs old in 1979 when this was released, I was 17 and loved it back then as I do now. We just loved having such great home grown music on radio instead of it all coming from overseas.
Breakfast at Sweethearts was an Actual restaurant in Kings Cross no longer there…. Now a McDonalds …. Don wrote this while living at the Plaza hotel… a dive across the street from Sweethearts… Plaza is also a song on Breakfast at Sweethearts.
I just love watching you react in such a generous and deep hearted way to the music that was so much a part of our Aussie youth. Thank you for bringing appreciation and awareness to it all.
Man this brings back memories of waking up one morning, hungover and crawling out of my tent and my mate had this song playing with a fire burning, boiling a billy for breakfast. Great memories
One of my all time favourite Cold Chisel songs. The groove hits so good with the base line and then the harmonies hit on another level again. So good 👌👌
I am so glad you did this song. It just resonates. It is usually down on the list of the songs that come to mind when speaking of Cold Chisel but for me it is one of the greatest.
Also, as for me, I'm waiting for someone to request ' No Secong Prize ' Such an emotional message from the heart, powered out to so many of those who can relate and need to express/release whatever stresses them.

Saw them live, I'll never forget the experience, so many songwriters! 😄 This video was on tv frequently too! This is the same vintage as Cheap Wine and Flame Trees! 👍
for mine Cold Chisel/Cold Chisel and Breakfast at Sweethearts are Classic Albums,from a golden era of Australian music, were a whole host of super talented song writers and band's, toured the Australian pub circuit and it was in hindsight, just so special, and uniquely Australian, you will never see so much talent plying their trade virtually no stop ever again!
if you drive down darlinghurst rd in kings cross, the mcdonalds building is where the original sweethearts cafe was, which is what the song was written about. don walker used to dine there regularly and it was a place where he wrote alot of cold chisel's music.
Sweethearts was a cafe in Kings Cross back in the 80's that was open all night. Sydney had a great party scene and after the pubs in the suburbs shut down around midnight people often caught a train to the Cross and partied till dawn and got a breakfast at Sweethearts 4-5am before limping home. The 80's on Oz was awesome, you could turn up at a pub to see a mystery band and it'd be Cold Chisel or Midnight Oil.
Hey Nick, have you seen Cold Chisel song live, One Long Day; the best one is done live in 1978. It's unbelievably fantastic! So good, all on analogue. Cheers for your great reactions, I watch all the time❤️🌏🪐🌕🙏🌸🦋🇦🇺🌺👀✨🦉🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Sweethearts used to be a great café in Kings Cross (Sydney). Come sun-up it was often the only place still open other than the 24 hour bookshop a few doors down. I was a chronic insomniac in the 80s and had more than a few breakfasts at Sweethearts after spending a happy hour or two in the bookshop browsing through the bargain Sci Fi bin. Both Sweethearts and the bookstore are long since gone now.
Sweethearts was a real place in Kings Cross, Sydney. The Cross was pretty wild back then and in the '80's when I was there. This song is the epitome of Sydney back then. Listen very closely at the intro and you will hear a background of conversations happening in this very environment.
Picture it: Going to a party with all ya mates and at that early morning moment you're on the couch drunk af, only 2 of your mates are still up, everyone else is passed in the lounge room, some on the front lawn, it's the moment your debating goin to bed, great upbeat music music been playing all night but now its 6 o'clock the next morning and this song is playin in the background and you get to fall asleep in your drunken stupor to it.... i know im not the only Aussie who remember it haha
Jimmy was on Triple J years ago for an interview and he was asked what was one song he always wanted to sing and when into Natural Woman without any accompaniment.
Love your reactions! I near fell of my chair when ya skipped past Mossy's tasty guitar magic at the end though! No sweat, I've seen you under Mossy's spell in other reactions. ❤

I was OBSESSED with Jimmy Barnes and Cold Chisel. OBSESSED 😍
What happened to Jimmy?
@@shaunely63 he’s awaiting surgery on his hip and back and had to cancel all shows due to extreme pain amd now imminent surgery.
Hi Roslyn, a great song, coming out of the Stagedoor Tavern in Sydney after seeing the boys, filled up on my bottle of Branda vino , a terrible drink but it was cheap.
The first song that i can remember with "cappuccino" in the lyrics
As an oldie you can see how great it was for us to grow up listening to Cold Chisel and other bands of that era. Cruising the highways with the car stereo wound up, it didn't get any better than that.
an amazing time it was dave , i still drive the same , have to drown out the DOFF DOFF DOFF crowd
So true Dave, I owned the same colour HX as your pic. East was on high rotation on the Kmart cassette player. 😂
@@Aussieforever I bought that HQ Monaro in the early 90's, still have it. It's my retirement fund now lol, I can't believe how much they're worth these days.
I had a 202 but it looked hot lol that's all that matters
@@Aussieforever haha, very true
I’d almost forgotten how good this song is.
We didn’t know how lucky we were in Oz back in the seventies and eighties
Classic Chisel. 70s & 80s was a great era for Aussie music.
The 60's was just as good👍
@@elizabethscott7660 Of course. 70s & 80s are the eras that hold the most memories for me.

How could you just have 1 favourite Chisel song? Their whole catalogue is brilliant. Love this band now and forever. Knew you'd like it Nic.

Same here thats what got me here and why I'm still checking hes channel out, Got no1 hardly reacting to Aussie music, Definitely our Jimmy and John

I saw it in the early 90's when I was in the RAAF based in nsw....
I walked past it in the cross and said wow that's sweethearts....

Don Walker wrote Khe Sanh while sitting in the Sweethearts Cafe.
There is absolutely no limits with Cold Chisel Nick. They can, and still can, do ANYTHING….AND EXTREMELY WELL!!!💪🏼👍🏼

At last!
I've been there often in my younger days 😇
Sweethearts was a cafe at Kings Cross visited after a big night.
Fuck me dead the bloke reacting has a good set of lungs on him too.can sing like champion himself
Jimmy was 23 yrs old in 1979 when this was released, I was 17 and loved it back then as I do now. We just loved having such great home grown music on radio instead of it all coming from overseas.
One of their best songs. Jimmy even announced it in one of their early concerts by saying “here’s a little reggae song”
My favourite Chisel Album and top five all time albums.
Memories I have had breakfast at sweethearts heaps of times and was the best
great vibe ay, listening to cold chisel since the 90's
Breakfast at Sweethearts was an Actual restaurant in Kings Cross no longer there…. Now a McDonalds …. Don wrote this while living at the Plaza hotel… a dive across the street from Sweethearts… Plaza is also a song on Breakfast at Sweethearts.
Don Walker penned the sound track to our formative years, along with the other 4, all contributors.
Love this song still got the drumstick from Cold Chisel"s last Stand this album is wicked timeless xx 🇦🇺🌟
Love this song. Deep and meaningful "the coffee's hot and the toast is brown".
yep yep
I just love watching you react in such a generous and deep hearted way to the music that was so much a part of our Aussie youth. Thank you for bringing appreciation and awareness to it all.
Not many bands sing about places in australia like chisel did, the Americans sing about places throughout there country
So good vibe, and Ian moss makes that guitar sing... timeless❣️
Love your deep dive into Chisel. Such an important band for so many reasons. Thankyou.
Great song from a great album - I still have the vinyl LP...
You get it!!! They are incredible 👏👏👏
FOREVER NOW love that 1 2
Definitely one of my favourite Chisel songs
Man this brings back memories of waking up one morning, hungover and crawling out of my tent and my mate had this song playing with a fire burning, boiling a billy for breakfast. Great memories
This is a CLASSIC CLASSIC !
I was looking forward to this for so long I got excited when the notification came through. Glad you loved the song, I loved the reaction
That’s so cool you guys are playing this stuff … ❤
This is why we love Cold Chisel.
Hangover Music , real place in Sydney back in the day.
Cold Chisel are definitely up there with the best, if not the best band ever. Very diverse, very powerful. Love this.
Beatles, then Chisel.
This is one of my favourite songs of chisel. Lovin your reactions as always ❤
Thanks for reacting once again to Cold Chisel. Brilliant Aussie talent
One of me favourites
Love it !!!! ... part of the soundtrack of my youth
One of my all time favourite Cold Chisel songs.
The groove hits so good with the base line and then the harmonies hit on another level again.
So good 👌👌
I was 1 year old when this came out 🥰 Classic Aussie rock!
Been waiting for this one! Thanks again, quality reaction like always
And introduced us to one Jimmy Barnes through them
Classic Chisel!! Insane music.
Awesome 💯 I was 5yrs old at the time LoL ✌️🍷🖤
One of my faves 💖
I am so glad you did this song. It just resonates. It is usually down on the list of the songs that come to mind when speaking of Cold Chisel but for me it is one of the greatest.
Classic song 👏
One of my favourite Cold Chisel songs.
Good ol memory's
beautiful song Sweethearts Sydney
I used to knock around in the Cross back in the 80's and 90's. Brings back some memories. Love this song. Chisel is one of my favs.
I'd forgotten how good this song was, and look forward to you reacting to "Cheap Wine (And A Three Day Growth)" (official video) sometime also.
what he hasn't reacted to "Cheap Wine" yet... ohh wow!
@@garyspeed8961 Yeah, it would seem he may not have had requests for that from others yet, which is certainly surprising if so.
That one of my fav cold chisel song, I’m looking forward to the day he listens to it
Also, as for me, I'm waiting for someone to request ' No Secong Prize ' Such an emotional message from the heart, powered out to so many of those who can relate and need to express/release whatever stresses them.
❤️🔥very nice
Absolutely one of my favourite Chisel songs
Classic 👏👏👏
I love everything about this!!!
What an amazing band 💕💕💕
you have a great voice ya self....good to see you back
Sweethearts was a Cafe in Kings Cross in Sydney back in the 70s/80s
It sadly is now a McDonalds. Tbis definitely one of my top Chisel songs
Fantastic song, always loved it.
I love Phil Small's bass on this track
Cold chisel is the best!! I’ve loved these guys for yearsss!!
Their songs had certain autobiographical tinges, being on the road and stopping for breakfast. Flame Trees 🌳 is my favourite, great video too.

Sweethearts was a cafe in Kings Cross that was open really late so a lot of bands went there after their gigs
I've been waiting for this from you for ages, thank you
Love your reactions mate. No waffle, honest, heartfelt. I wish your Dad could have heard this too.
Cold Chisel just sublime…
Used to go to sweethearts early morning for a coffee off the main drag at kings cross

The one band I never saw live… regret it now.. they were a little wild!.. their followers! I don’t think I was game enough!
Star Hotel, Newcastle Riot Anthony.
Brandyvino last time i had that was in high school in the 70's dont think it exist anymore
cool as hell...!!
Oh I’ve been waiting on this one.

Literally just off the first 5 albums there is 40 great songs and the rest are good.....
They are one of my all time favourite bands.....
Filmed at the Marble Bar in the Sydney Hilton, it hasn't changed much
I thought the Marble Bar was relocated to the Hilton after this. Could be wrong though.
Qantas pilots and hosties used to hang around The Marble Bar at the Hilton from memory back in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
