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.

Fountain Lyrics

Sweet

(ConnollyScottTuckerPriest)
If I could make a wish
I'd throw a coin in the fountain
But fantasies don't always come true
And if I had no dreams
I'd never climb the mountain
The hand of fate will always be
reaching out for you
Chorus
Like gold your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
Colours of love in the sky
I've been saying all my life
I don't believe in magic
But fountain of faith I'm putting my trust in you
Circles on the water
from the coin that's sinking slowly down
My future's reflecting my destiny's calling out to you
Chorus
Well how much time do you need
The fountain holds the key
To unlock the love deep in your heart
I have kissed the waters lips
and now we're floating free
With no love before this new life can start again
Chorus
