Song Choice:- The O2 tanks had nearly run out for
The Sweet by 1978 and sadly this was their last UK 'Top-Ten' hit. I loved this
self-penned track and thought it was a great progression from their 1973
'Blockbuster' chart-topper written for them by famous 70's song-writers Chinn
and Chapman. Getting pigeon-holed as a ‘Glam-Rock Bubblegum Band’
didn't help much either and meant they'd never have the album success of
'Queen' or 'Boston' whom used the same high-pitched multi-tracked vocals. Have

In some of the folk I meet, I often find they are using a lot of other folks Oxygen around them hoping to find love, friendship and happiness only to find that the C
Being O2 blind can be fatal and Oxygen is a dangerous substance. 'The Sweet' were quite right in their line saying 'You get too much you get too high, not enough and you're gonna die' as after five to ten minutes of not breathing, you
are likely to develop serious and possibly irreversible brain damage to you and to those around you if you are not careful.
All you have to do is keep things to a simple 12-20 breaths a minute and the rest of life's a breeze - one full of good clean fresh-air.
How drunk on life are you? And how full are your O2 tanks? Do you in need of resuscitation?
