Although Sweet were largely known for their glam rock image, and several hit singles -- many of them being so-called teenage anthems -- they also released several albums throughout a ten year career. The extent of Sweet's domination of the charts in Europe resulted in eight number one singles in Germany, with pop oriented tunes as "Co Co", "Little Willy", and "Wig Wam Bam". Sweet's success continued with more rock oriented tunes, such as "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser", "Ballroom Blitz", "Teenage Rampage", and "Fox On The Run". The group had a world-wide following (clocking up no less than 18 top 20 hit singles) and were most notably popular in the UK, Germany and Australia. The classic Sweet line-up consisted of vocalist Brian Connolly, drummer Mick Tucker, bassist Steve Priest, and guitarist Andy Scott.

Big Apple Waltz Lyrics

Sweet

Manhattan Skyline, surrounds me
Just like a lady, you're holding your
Light burning for me to see
'Cause I'd do anything most anything
for all those nights that you bring to me
All of our love
I've been so long
In the city
The city has been
So long inside of me
It's so long, it's a pity, I'm so far away
But I still do
The Big Apple Waltz
I find an empire, in any state
Building the future, around you 'cause
Where love grows, it's never too late
We'll paint a heart, on the wall
For the whole of the world to see
Loving you, is feeling
of deja-vu
Loving you, I know it's true
Oh yeah, we'll paint a heart, on the wall
For the whole of the world to see
I've been so long, in the city
The city has been, so long inside of me
