  1. Essaie Sono pour les enfants Vromm il faut faire chauffer les enfants qui vont bientôt démarrer lol

  2. Lol congrats: the solo is just s*it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 <savages>

  3. You get a shiver in the dark
    It's a raining in the park but meantime-
    South of the river you stop and you hold everything
    A band is blowing Dixie, double four time
    You feel alright when you hear the music ring
    Well now you step inside but you don't see too many faces
    Coming in out of the rain they hear the jazz go down
    Competition in other places
    Uh but the horns they blowin' that sound
    Way on down south
    Way on down south
    London town
    You check out guitar George, he knows-all the chords
    Mind, it's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
    They said an old guitar is all, he can afford
    When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
    And Harry doesn't mind, if he doesn't, make the scene
    He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright
    He can play the Honky Tonk like anything
    Savin' it up, for Friday night
    With the Sultans
    We're the Sultans of Swing
    Then a crowd a young boys they're a foolin' around in the corner
    Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
    They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band
    It ain't what they call Rock and Roll
    And the Sultans
    Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
    Creole
    And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
    And says at last just as the time bell rings
    "Goodnight, now it's time to go home"
    Then he makes it fast with one more thing
    "We are the Sultans
    We are the Sultans of Swing"

  4. É como falou O nosso grande ROBSON MIGUEL o mundo hoje não dá valor a música instrumental.
    Tanto é que pouco se fala do choro,, música boa e GENUINAMENTE BRASILEIRA.

    uma pena.😂😂

  5. My dad grew up in the 70s and it's his favorite song or group.. don't remember well but torch is passed for sure
    With walk of life and this song, impossible not to be indifferent even in a bad day

  6. I love this early video version but it lacks the verse about the crowd of young boys foolin' around in the corner and also Mark's final solo. Its more than a minute shorter than the full version.

  7. I'm just a young man,
    But this track and sound will carry for untold,
    I've had to enjoy 40 years plus,
    First sound, and forever unforgettable
    XxX

  8. Hay que ser idiota para cortar el segundo solo de guitarra, la mejor parte.

  9. Ja machst du heute noch das Hemd so auf. Nee ne du hast wohl zugenommen. ? Und bist langsam geworden pohh. Echt. Zu fett gegessen. Ich aber nicht hihi😂 nie
