I’ve been a fan since the mid-70’s. IMO, the magic was a combination of all four of them. When Brian left Steve and Andy couldn’t handle the lead vocals themselves as well as doing backups. They needed another Brian. Brian and Steve were amazing, trading vocals on songs like “No you don’t” and “Solid gold Brass”. Andy’s Sweet seems to have done well but they never got the same lead vocals as Brian and Steve with Mick and Andy.
They were the "Real Fab Four". They still are. The young people appreciate SWEET in thier context of professionals who give us all Great music Great story tellers in their music lyrics sound Think there is a new saying " You don't get the SWEET, meaning for people who are nor that focused. Agree with your comment
Andy looks exhausted. They probably just got off the tour bus after driving all night. It’s too bad Brian wasn’t able to get his health and vocals in order to rejoin the group. Maybe then they could get Steve back.
@MsLucy2012 well, I`m not sure about that. But I do know that Brian left in 1978,and then rejoined with the entire original line up in 1990,which was not a succes. This clip from 1985 is only Andy and Mick from the original Band. At that time Brian found three musicians from Birmingham and called it BC`s Sweet. All the best Chimbo
When Sweet rejoined had not success because Brian's voice was not the same quality but the problem was Andy and his lack of humanity for that reason Brian could not stand Andy from the very first time he arrived to Sweet
Brian Connolly (last name is hard to spell correctly-lol)was the face and voice we wanted to see and hear. Didn't matter how talented Andy was.... Brian Connolly had a special charismatic stage presence that can't be taught or bought. RIP.
@@4825sardis Conolly or Connolly is the same, that's not the point. Was Andy talented??? Nooooo, talent is more than play the guitar or bass it is the ability to have emotional intelligence so that the only talent has Andy is to profit from the name of Sweet.
Muy cierto !!!! No hay Sweet sin el hermoso y guapo Brian Connolly ! Perdón Andy, aunque te duela mucho ! Pero el era mil veces mejor que tú ! Tenia voz, guapura, imagen, presencia, carisma, liderazgo ! Todo !!! Lo siento Andy ! Acabaste con el Dulce. ! SWETT=BRIAN CONNOLLY !
Respectfully, what was Andy supposed to do, stop working because Brian decided to destroy himself? This version of Sweet was an absolute machine and, IMO, a real return to form for a band who had completely lost their way in the final years of the classic lineup.
@@tmx63 I agree. I hold nothing against Brian. he had the rock vocal and if he could have kept himself healthy and away from drink, he’d still be with us but Andy and Mick wanted to continue playing shows. Why should they stop playing?
Boy, I didn't know Mick Tucker was so personable, the best guy a band could have. He holds the interview together, Andy Scott looks so moody and sullen. From an outside point of view it appears that Andy blames Brian for letting the band down with all that heavy drinking just before they were going to move into the next level of the big leagues-the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin level.
FRANK SROBOTNJAK not at all Frank. Andy couldn't stand Brian and did what he could to get rid of Brian. Try to find the last interview Brian did before he died, it's a real eye opener about Brian's & Andy's relationship. It confirmed what I always felt, Andy was extremely jealous of Brian.
Yeah, Mick was absolutely awesome. If you look back to footage from the mid-70’s of their live stuff, he’s always clowning around. An amazing drummer too.
Look up some footage from the mid-80’s. They were pretty awesome. I miss Steve’s antics and Brian IMO had the best rock voice ever before he got beat up but Andy and Mick’s band were as good as you were going to get.
The mullet and tight perms, both hairstyles that are synonymous with the 80's are well represented here. As for the clothing....?!?! Shame on you Sweet...and David Day is equally as bad.
The Sweet were never quite the same when Brian and Steve
quit the band. Now no longer with us. Hang on in there Andy,
keeping "Sweet" alive.
I disagree Andy doesn't keep alive Sweet.
Andy was the person who broke the original group and he only keeps alive his name but not Sweet's name
Andy has profited from the name of Sweet
Mick is really talkative! God bless him!
Don’t like Andy Scott, he always wanted to be the front man.
They couldn't make it without Brian, he made SWEET.
Steve Priest was the heart of the band
But now the original Sweet is in The Heavens the most beautiful place where they could play.
Brian, Mick and Steve the only ones

Mick to Andy: What's the matter with you? It's the old rock'n roll! Hahahahahahahaha!
Love you mick tucker andy love love love sweet 😋
Unfortunately this isn't SWEET.
You are right. This is Andy's group
Andy seems quite down though i wonder if he did miss having Brian as lead (and by that time Steve had moved to the States)

I would like to be at Andy's place at 5:11. It looks amusing.
THIS IS NOT THE SWEET

It’s tough when it’s just partially the band. If it were 3 out of 4 I would consider going. But Brian would have to be there
Sweet without Brian Conolly is not Sweet. Brian had the talent and the voice recognized as Sweet.
Brian you will be in our hearts for ever and ever

Frank ! me interesa esa entrevista de Brian, y sobre la relación de el, con Andy !. Por favor publicala ! Estoy segura que Scott lo celaba bastante !
@@anarosacandianavarro3018 Debbie Scott mentioned that video ,I haven't seen it. Although I believe Andy Scott was jealous of Brian.

How Embarrasing..especially those new docile guys who dont deserve to be associated with the name Sweet
Docile? This lineup was phenomenal live.
