“Love Is Like Oxygen” was another big hit for Sweet.
Long Version
My fav of theirs
For the longest time I thought that was by ELO.
So good!
it was ..but its about time these guys hit the banger from a band first .its been awhile..missed their chance by a nose w doing ballroom blitz first.. my meaning is if youve never heard black sabbath before it matters if you play war pigs or planet caravan first
Little Willie all day long
"Mama done chase Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all"
Absolutely!
Yessir
Then Blockbuster
This!!
Next Sweet reaction...Love Is Like Oxygen
Long Version
Most definitely. My fav song by them
Long version of love is like oxygen by SWEET. You will not regret it . Fox on the run was radio popular and not a bad song
The one they should have reacted to imo.
@@SaverioP that is true Love is like oxygen I always thought was a ELO song cause it was similar to their sound
Best Sweet song!! Definitely need to react to it.
Loonnng version is mandatory
I can't recommend the extended version of Love is like Oxygen enough...
To think this was the "kids" music back in the day........how lucky were WE kids back then.....🎸....love it👏👏
Yeah, Sweet, Queen, Duran Duran and many more ... now they seem like like musical geniuses now:) Pop quiz for the over 50's, name 1 Taylor Swift song you hum along to
@@paddyomaddy don't forget Slade and T.Rex!!
Yessss! So lucky🎉
@@paddyomaddypaddy sunday alt rock retro show played duran rio club version same friend dj played 40 years ago still rocks bass guitar breakdown the 12 inch singles he had sell big dollars last one i saw was like 20 plus tax.
Loved being a teenager in the 70s, so much great music.
Now imagine you're 13 when you first hear this in the car with your dad, and that beginning comes on, loud, sounding like something from Star wars, and it just envelopes you in glorious sound.. One of the greatest pop songs ever.
The beginning of this song lets you know immediately that something epic is about to happen.
59 and I still get chills hearing this banger, it never gets old
Same here
I have been listening to the Desolation Blvd album since the late 70's. I still crank it to this day!
55 here and totally same! Love it!
59 here also! But on the Christmas of that year my brother and I gained a LP player, and since my brother was 5 years older I started listening to Beatles, Deep Purple, Renaissance, Genesis, Tangerine Dream, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, Simon & Garfunkel and The Who (these were the first bands I heard the full Lps, along with the J. C. Superstar movie soundtrack).
Not bragging, it's just those were popular here in Portugal at the time. Tough I have to admit it was a great beginning and heavily marked my musical taste from then on...
But this music brings that powerful nostalgia, I can't deny that!!!
Nothing screams THE 70'S like the intro to this song. I still expect to hear it followed by........ K-Tel presents or SUNDAY, SUNDAY,SUNDAY. One day only at Riverside International speedway..... every time I hear it.
Don't forget at the end of the K - tel commercial the tagline , "but wait , there's more". And can't forget the By Ronco commercials.
True!
It's literally the smash cut 70s song that many shows & movies use to let the audience know that we're flashing back to the 70s.
It's everywhere.
KOOOL DUDE I CAN DIG IT LOL
Little Willie and love is oxygen are great songs
Yeah Little Willie was my favorite from them
Little Willie is such a fun song!
@@tonihammes33 Agree 💯
I got teased because of that song 😏
Yes!!!!
The most underrated British rock band ever…never taken seriously enough because all their songs were so catchy… hit after hit after hit… loads of them… Mick Tucker the drummer was fantastic.
Blockbuster, teenage rampage, hellraiser loads of hits.
Agree except for 1 band. Mott the Hoople.
@@rickpaul4216 MTH weren't just underrated, they were invisible although they had a devoted following in the UK. It wasn't until Bowie got involved that they were finally recognized. Damn shame. My favorite UK band. Insane energy and soul
A power pop glam band. Amazingly talented. Tucker especially was first-rate
Yes, I remember hearing this on the radio as a youngster and liking it. I think that Glam Rock and this 70s sound was bigger in the UK (e,g, with Slade and Garry Glitter) and didn't really breakthrough in the US. That isn't saying it isn't great rock music. I'm sure that it influenced my love of progressive rock as I grew up.
Give Us A Wink was a killer album.
Echoing Love Is Like Oxygen and Little Willie. Also: Action.
Love this song! Thanks for playing.
Love Is Like Oxygen next please. 🎶🎶🎶
“Love Is Like Oxygen” is a great one by these guys. Interesting pop-rock group but better than a lot of cross over bands.
I used to think ELO did Love is Like Oxygen.
@@glenngrossman7354 , the refrain on this song sounds a lot like ELO’s “Do Ya”. “Fox on the run/Do ya do ya want my love”
The Sweet were quintessential Glam Rock. Every kid in my primary school loved this song back in the mid-70s. I saw them live many years later in a small club in Melbourne and they were very heavy, not poppy at all. If you want a follow up Sweet song that is a bit deeper (and longer), as others have suggested, check out Love is Like Oxygen - a brilliant track.
Little Willy was my song for my Big Brudda in the day (his name is Will). “Mama done chase Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all…”
'Action' is another excellent song by Sweet.
A phenomenal song!
Fk yeah🤘🤘🤘🤘
You're bang on lads, this was part of our Glam Rock era during the 70's. Sweet, T. Rex, Slade, Gary Glitter (now locked up for child abuse), Mud, Roxy Music, Bowie (for a short period) and Geordie (featuring the one and only Brian Johnson from AC/DC), plus many others. Sweet and Slade being my favourite two.
Bowie and Roxy Music were the arty acts, Glitter was the opposite end of the spectrum.
My bicycle was burnt orange, banana seat, sissy bar, rear slick tire and a steering wheel instead of handlebars. I imagine I was listening to Sweet on the day my dad gave it away…
This comment made me laugh. A steering wheel on a bike, hell yeah . Why not?
I’m sorry your dad gave your bike away. Bikes were everything back then! Hope you got another one eventually. : )
@@jenl3162 Yeah, the ten speed I got was pretty boss, but I wanted to keep the stingray. Seventies stuff was not always practical, but it’s truly memorable.
@@dooombringerrr It was a unicorn for sure. Groovy bike.
omg!!! omg!!! a steering wheel instead of handle bars!!!! I am dying!!! there was a kid in my town who had a bike like that!!! it was a combination of being BOTH souped up and broken down in appearance and also in the tricks that it could do!! it was a steering wheel from a 60's car I think because it was scalloped and made of that hard hard bake-a-lite plastic stuff. he was kind of hoody, kind of scary, kind of sexy to me. and seemed like trouble big time. I stayed clear of him. though I secretly wanted to know him more.,
Next by Sweet: Love is Like Oxygen and Little Willy. And yes, this was Glam rock at its finest.
Mick Tucker is consistently forgotten when talking of influential drummers; phenomenal player.
"The Six Teens" and "Hellraiser" are great tunes as well.
He'll yeah. His stick twirling is phenomenal.
"And life (and Life) goes on (Goes on) ya know ya know it ain't easy..." LOL, love this whole album! "into the night" has killer drumming as well!
The Six teens was the first single I bought, still love it half a century(!!) later.
I'm a drummer, and he was one if my influences. I would have loved to be as good as him. He was phenomenal. He was Jon Bonham good. He was way better than most. Including Keith Moon, and most others who were famous.
"Action", "No You Don't", "The Sixteens", all straight bangers by Sweet.
Also, Mick Tucker was a kickass drummer who deserves a lot more recognition.
I don't know any drummer who could hit those skins better than Mick Tucker. 👍
I was in my mid teens in the 70dz
I started playing drums in 1976 when I was 12. I'm telling you right now. Mick Tucker was one of the best drummers of the 70's. I would have put him up against anybody in that decade. Including Jon Bonham. He is by far the most underrated drummer in Rock History. He did not get the recognition he deserved.
@@benjiarehart2878 I started playing drums a year or two after you. All I knew from Sweet at the time was "Love Is Like Oxygen." I didn't really "discover" them until decades later.
Mick would definitely have been a favorite at the time.
Desolation Blvd. Was my first album. Love it!
That album was 10 years ahead of its time.
Amazing album. Every song was good.
Dang was hoping for Love Is Like Oxygen Long version . How about next time. This one bangs, their most popular song.. FOXY
Love Is Like Oxygen (long version), but this one is great as well.
Blockbuster, Hell Raiser, Teenage Rampage were big hits in the UK and great songs.
I was 11 when this came out. Still just as fresh to me now as it was then. Love it!
This is rock candy!
Always loved this.
I always felt that these guys were way ahead of their time. They had an 80’s vibe early in the 70’s.
notice that so called 80s synyh lol dude the 70s were a head of thier decade PERIOD IM A VERY PROUD 70s BRAT
NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WAAAAY NOT EVEN CLOSE
Blockbuster is one of their best.
Nothing beats the 70s for music. What a decade. LOVE IS LIKE OXYGEN is another great tune from Sweet, but make sure it's the long version.
I second, third, and fourth "Love is Like Oxygen." You need this song sooner than later.
I remember riding the bus, in fourth grade, listening to the driver's transistor radio.... and hearing this song and comparing it to Wings' "Band on the Run" and being confused.
I was in middle school when this came out… 7th grade to be exact. The chorus with the chop beat is so British, many songs from the UK have that Sweet, ELO, Trickster. 😊
Same here 👍😊
I was either a sophomore or junior in high school. This was fire!
"Love is like Oxygen " the full version, Sweet raised their own bar for artistic merit. I'm thinking it would be S tier for you guys, easily.
Glam power pop
Four musicians at the top of their game, a fantastic band.
Wig Wam Bam and The Six-Teens are two more huge hits from Sweet. Absolutely they are what you think of when you think of 1970s glam rock. Love to see you react to these mega hits in the future. Thanks for this great reaction gents!
Thanks, Andy and Alex! 💎 I adore their song "Love Is Like Oxygen", as well.
Well, I DID ride my bike home from 4th grade in '74 when this came out and we didn't have "mobile headphones" back then, so I had to wait till my living room floor, where I listened over and over to one of the first albums I ever bought: "Sweet: Desolation Boulevard," baby! Another fabulous tunes (Dude, the DRUMS on this one!) from that album is "Into The Night." I have to give "Fox" "just" an A. The first two minutes are spellbindingly brilliant, the last two only hypnotizingly so, eh.
Simply a seventies classic!
SWWWWWWWWEEEEEETTTTTT
This entire album is excellent and wayyyyyy ahead of its time. Check out Sweet F.A. for a rocker! They were one of the great glam pioneers! Love Sweet 😋 💕 😊!!!!!
Set me free off Sweet FA is a banger, Sweet Fanny Adams was my first album purchase in 1974, I was 11....
Yes!
Why isn't this band in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? They had a bunch of great songs in the early-mid 70's and they influenced other glam rock bands. HUGE OVER-SIGHT!!!
Gary, the R&RHOF is the biggest joke in the industry! Did you see who was inducted today?😳
Why? Because the R&RHOF is a sham. Shit-show.
Because the would rather have Mary J Blige 💩🤡😡
@@cotadog4472 “But don’t you remember all of those great R&R albums Mary J.Bleige made?.
Said no one…ever!😳
Exactly, they are not a one hit wonder band; they so deserve to be in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; love their songs Fox on the Run, Love is like Oxygen, Little Willy, The Ballroom Blitz; love their sound.
There’s a video of these guys performing Free All Right Now with Ritchie Blackmore on guitar
Brings back great memories. I was about 16 years old then. How time flies. 🎶🎶😄👍
Just fantastic ❤ no agenda no "message" just great foot stomping entertainment
Andy and Alex love you two dudes. I graduated from high school in 1974 and this song rapidly became my anthem as I dragged Main in my 1972 Gran Torino with my windows open and Fox on the Run blasting away. I had people tell me they could hear it 3 blocks away. I am now 68 and I have this song at the top of my playlist and here we are 50 years later, I’ve probably listened to it over 2000 times and I still absolutely love this song. So so glad you guys covered it. I will be hosting our 50 year class reunion this year at our house, complete with a DJ, and when the dance starts, guess which song leads it off? You got it!! FOTR!!! Keep up the great work!!’
13 years old when I first heard this Album!!! Was mesmerized by the entire Album! What a GREAT time to be a teenager!!!
Sweet f a ,is another good song by them
I did listen to this in middle school. It was a massive hit. - In 1974
For those of us entering our teen years to this song and others from the mid-70s made it was such a great time.
Blast from past,this was #1 in Manchester U.K.,.Brought it to USA when we moved here.
Andy! I WAS in middle school when this came out! It was like a blessing on the radio cuz there was soooo much soft rock in the top 40. I still get hyped hearing those opening bars!
Great reaction, guys!
Andy is right -- this song came out when I was 11 years old and was total banger at that age, and Glam Rock is the genre. The meaning of "fox" may be somewhat lost on anyone not growing up in the 1970s - fox/foxy were very popular terms for attractiveness. Part of Alex's appreciation for Sweet is probably due to their producer - Mike Chapman, who produced many other acts including Blondie and the Knack.
Best reactions in the biz gentlemen!
S tier for me. Brilliant arrangement and production too. I’ll never get tired of it …probably glam rock
Now you guys got to do " Love is like oxygen " awesome song.
Long Version
Sweet Jesus, what a banger. I forgot how heavy that is.
sweet gotta buncha bangers
Nice reaction. One of my fav Sweet tunes. Their "Love Is Like Oxygen" is worth a listen IMO. It, as well as this one and Ballroom Blitz got a lot of airplay back in the day. She's a FOX! was a common expression of a very pretty woman when this song was released in the US. Probably started right after Hendrix's Foxy Lady hit
So many bangers from this top band. Love is Like Oxygen (full length version), Wig Wam, Bam, Teenage Rampage, Co-co, Hell Raiser, Sweet F.A, AC/DC and I Wanna be Committed, all bangers for sure.
This was in heavy rotation on the Jukebox in my 8th-grade cafeteria. You hit the nail on the head when you said it made you think of Middle School! This was their first step away from Their usual glam, and their eventual release of "Love is Like Oxygen."
I was in middle school when this song was released. It was THE song. Nothing sounded like it at the time.
The 70s and early-to-mid-80s really were, IMO, the peak years for "nothing else sounded like it" songs. :-) Electronic synthesizers were coming into their own, and that plus improved production techniques in the studios were making it possible for bands to create all kinds of sounds that no one had ever heard before.
@@ballyastrocade5672 Agreed.
Me too.
It's just GOTTA be in some movie, not sure which though. I can totally see the beginning kicking off/transitioning to some great scene somehow!
@@joescott8877 It was used in the trailer for "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" (though not in the film itself), and it was also used in "Dazed & Confused." It's probably been in others as well, but I do remember those. 🙂
the album verion of "love is like oxygen" is sweets masterpiece
Yeah, I was 13 in 1974 and I loved this song too. I remember singing along with it with my full voice. 😊
So many great Sweet tracks -- this, the aforementioned Ballroom Blitz, the highly requested album-edit of Love Is Like Oxygen, Little Willy, Wig-Wam Bam, The Six Teens, Teenage Rampage (my personal favorite), Block Buster, Action...
Sweet straddled the glam rock/power pop line.
Andy, I remember humming this song on my banana-seat bike circa 1975 or 76. I was in glam rock heaven!
Great reaction guys. The Sweet were truly joyous. This was "pop music" in the 1970's at it's best.
Pretty underrated band. Enormously underrated drummer in Mick Tucker. This is the soundtrack to my teen years.
Check out their albums!!! Level headed, give us a wink, desolation boulevard, etc… all of them are top tier!!
Lead singr Brian lived in my village in Scotland and his aunt lived a few houses from me,Best song of theirs to me.
Wow, We had such great fucking music growing up in the 60s and 70s!!!!!
I couldn’t wait to ride my bike to the record store to buy this 45.
Schwinn Bicycle Company - with a banana seat and sissy bar!
Love this. It explodes out of the speakers.
I was in 7th grade when this was released - great song for that age
You're right, Andy - Jr. High in the mid-70's. 🌿
From one spring - loaded, bobbleheaded musical empath to another, I do enjoy your reactions!
This song is used to be in movies and great live performances and music the song I heard when was 8 years old and got to see them live in concert
I was like 5th grade when this was on the radio, and yeah, it’s one I loved to listen to everyday! I had the 45 single and I’m sure my mom got tired of hearing it every single day.
Took me back to Jr. High school....😊
Andy & Alex, you'll love their "Love Is Like Oxygen" for your third Sweet song!!! Longer version is best.
Yes that was one of my favourites of theirs.
So lucky I was a teenager in their heyday.
Yes, the long version!
It has to be the album (long) version.
Great suggestion!
The longer version is the ONLY choice.
This came out when I was in junior high school and I am laughing my ass off at your reaction, lol That's so funny. I love the A+ reaction right off the bat. I can't tell you how favored this song is by so many people. I'm a musician of many decades and I don't listen to this all the time, but when it comes up, I'll typically listen to it at least three times in a row on my Bluetooth headphones with it just blasting (back then it was massive stereo systems, of course). 😅
😮
A prime example of the quintessential 70's FUN song! It took 2 years to play this. Last year I told you to listen to "Love Is Like Oxygen" (must be long version), so I expect it sometime this year!.
Little Willy!
This is another case of Spotify putting the single version as the album version. This is the single version. The album version is different.
I'm 68 and saw them live at 17 at festival Melbourne what an experience
Great reaction guys you absolutely NEED to hear "Love Is Like Oxygen" for your next song from them. Total banger!!
70s power pop at its best 🎶
SWEEET I CAN DIG IT
You know, I heard a song this morning for the first time by a band named City Boy. It reminded me of The Sweet 😮
City Boy were a band from Birmingham UK whose only real hit was 5705 but wow….. what a song!!
Oh, I loved City Boy. They had such banger songs and then they did "Haymaking Time" which is so sweet and gentle. "The Man Who Ate His Car".
City Boy are great band, but criminally overlooked. Best albums are Dinner at the Ritz(produced by Mutt Lange, AC/DC, Def Leppard), Book Early and Young Men Gone West.
I always loved this band they rock.
One of my favorite bands from the 70's! Give Us A Wink is a great album to check out!
Blockbuster -> Ballroom Blitz -> Teenage Rampage -> Hellraiser = Peak Sweet
Nikki Sixx loves this band. I like this song. Love is Like Oxygen as well 🎉
Oh my God, this song rocked my 12 year old world back in 75!
Me too!!! ( But I was 8!)😂
Life was all about music back then. It was awesome!
Crunchy riffs!
Classic!
Check out early Sweet when they were signed to US Bell Records before their string of hits on US Capitol Records.
"Little Willy" and "Blockbuster" were a kind of pop punk or power pop. Some very friendly AM Radio hits.
"The 6 Teens" from Desolation Boulevard next please.
PS yes it was 7th grade, AND whatever you do DON'T do "Little Willie".
PSS there were Schwinns and Stingrays when it came to bikes...
This song came out when I was in Elementary school and it was awesome. I was 10.
