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.

My Generation Lyrics

Sweet

(P. Townshend)
People try to put us down
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful cold
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Hope I die before I get old
(Talking 'bout my generation)
My generation, my generation, baby
Why don't you all fade away
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Don't try to dig what we all say
(Talking 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
(Talking 'bout my generation)
I can talking about my generation
(Talking 'bout my generation)
My generation, my generation, baby
Why don't you all fade away
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Don't try to dig what we all say
(Talking 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
(Talking 'bout my generation)
I can talking about my generation
(Talking 'bout my generation)
My generation, my generation, baby
People try to put us down
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful cold
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Hope I die before I get old
(Talking 'bout my generation)
My generation, my generation, baby
