Can't help myself .....looking back on bands from my youth ....Im 60 in 2023..... why am I crying now....

Just heard this song live. From about a kilometre away. While in my house. At 11pm. Darryl Braithwaite is 73 and still doing concerts in small rural Aussie towns like Wingham. Good on him.

Aussie classic!!!! 1970’s, cricket on Channel 9!!! Maaaarvelous 🏏

A breakup song becomes a cricket iconic song .... Only the Aussies can do that

You cant beat the 70s for the most iconic music ever written. This song 🎵 by Sherbet ie a perfect example-wonderful composition.

The accidental cricket anthem. Bloody great song, always in my top 5.

One of my favorite songs on the 70s.

My Dad loved this song 👍🏻 it was a massive hit in the UK , brilliant Aussie band ❤

reminds me on good times in the 70th

That guitar riff... so brilliant and haunting and ahead of its time... world class , and Daryl giving it everything... lm still blown away every time l hear it and see it 🇦🇺

Harvey James. Born in Sheffield, UK. Moved to Australia in the 1960s. RIP……

Magnificent song totally works guitar drums bass great vocals something else to put a song together like that

One word absolutely brilliant, ok 2 words

Still rocks today even after all these years, remember this when it first came out, the 60s ,70s and 80s were the best decades ever for music . Shame there isn't proper music anymore, thank God for KZfaq it's the next best thing to a Time Machine. If only !!!!

I'm always listening to this on Canberra 2CA radio station. I lived in Canberra 1980-86 as a foreign student. ANU grad. I miss the 80's in Australia. Best times of my life. From Malaysia.

Oh yeah, I remember this. I accompanied Sherbet on tour in the 70s in the UK and the fans always seemed to enjoy the song.

Fantastic memories of this song. LOL

Great tune, completely underrated

I'd forgotten how good this song is; saw the album in a Tweet. I have the single - the intro is bloody awesome, and yes, it's another song with simple lyrics, which are always the most powerful. Fantastic!

Love this song. Braithwaite vocals sooth the soul.

BEAUTIFUL MEMORY, I SEARCHED FOR THIS THEME FOR YEARS THAT I DANCED IN MY ADOLESCENCE, I RECENTLY FOUND IT AFTER MANY YEARS, ONE OF MY FAVORITE THEMES OF THAT BEAUTIFUL TIME..

Gotta love the outfits...

Always liked The Sherbs/Sherbert. They were big in Fresno, then after 82 their record company stopped promoting them here in the central san valley. At least we were lucky to appreciate them and hear how good these cats from Australia were Thanks for posting this piece of music history. Musc like this makes me glad I'm not generation millameal or ztard

Great song,even many years later still a pleasure, great bass work

So many happy memories associated to this song of my youth. Took me years to realize what a quality song it was . . . . . . but then that's why it has lasted the test of time

More evidence that the 1970s was the best decade for music!

I remember this song on the radio when i was a kid. What a song

bloody amazing!! hit!! band! & awesome song! hearing this song as a little kid of the late 70s & 80s from family members is still one of my favourite number. Go Sherbet!

Best hairstyle ever!

I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!! Por fin la encontré, esta canción la vi en TV, yo tenía 14 años, en 1978, sur de Argentina, miraba un programa que daban por la tele en blanco y negro, escuché esta canción y me impactaron las voces, los arreglos, me deslumbró. Tal vez parezca tonto pero así fue, durante muchos años la busqué infructuosamente, ya que el nombre que recordaba era parecido ( erróneamente buscaba " how that" ) hoy con 57 años revivo aquella tarde de invierno en que la vi y escuché con algunas sensaciones parecidas...saludos a todos los que también les gusta!!!!!

What a classic song. Love his voice..

Still listening in 2020...Howzat.

In my eyes one of the best Aussie songs ever....great lyrics, brilliant harmonies....love love love it!..

Love this song 2020

Classic song..

70s magic cant beat it

Best song ever

Very true.. one of the very best aussie songs i love.even the guitar riffts arw superb and the fuzz box sounds.love to daryl. Navin. ( srilanka)

My Favorite band for much of the 70's and my favourite sherbet song Howzat which was a No.1 hit here in Australia and their biggest hit too.

I miss the 70s and the music,,every song brings back a memory,,real music with heart,,thankyou to all musicians of the 70s

We moved to Australia just after seeing this on Top of the Pops in the UK. I thought ‘wow this place looks cool!’ And it bloody well was!

Love the guitar solo at 1.33

Trip down memory lane. 70's bubble gum classic tune. Best part of the Internet is watching music from my youth.

Australia really has given the world some amazing bands ❤

Remember hearing this song on American armed forces radio Iran 1976, great song

I saw them in concert at the Regent Theatre, Dunedin, NZ. Earlier that day, they an album signing at an EMI record shop. Would have been about 1973-1974. Terrific concert.

an Australian classic.....first class hit.

I absolutely love this song ! brilliant

Loooove Darryl in this song so cool

Still enjoying this song!!! 2019!

1976. Totally in love with Sherbet and starting high school. Great memories

Das schmeckt nach Jugendzeit und es fühlt sich wunderbar an..ein toller Song..so viele schöne Erinnerungen ...

Greatest song ever written

I've been looking for this song for years. Had it on a 45. I can finally stop looking. Still looking for the group chase.

Great song great band. I could listen to this over and over again and never get tired!... god I miss the music that made you feel so good inside. RIP Harvey James

I got them to play this on KSCO radio today out of Santa cruz one of my all time favorites let's bring it back

It’s so amazing that you almost can’t tell this live performance from the recorded version.

I love Sherbet even after 30 years. 😘😃

Brilliant song from the back end of the long hor summer of '76! I'd just started my 5th and final full year at secondary school and still look back fondly to the days of taking my Sony transistor radio on a Tuesday to hear the charts!

A gem from my younger days, stood out from that era.

Great memories what times we had

i love this song .......... it just reminds me of when music caught my ear

great song

This is the best thing I'v ever heard in my life

Thank you for the track !

Howzat for a terrific base line! Amazing memories of 1976. This song is, of course about cricket; not at all about a bloke who finds his girl messing around with another guy.

I loved this

I use to go see Sherbet at brisbane festival hall years ago. Great shows

Simple but super bass line. Great memories of the mid 70's

When I play cricket this is in my head 😂😂

Such a great band 👍👍 still love them

In the TOP 5 songs EVER ❤❤❤

Great bass, killer solo! I was 7 when this was released, and I still remember it now!

Loved seeing sherbet again after all these years

I was about 12 when this was released ('76 or so) and bought it on 7 inch vinyl single - remember those? lol . Loved the lead singer's voice. hehe

I saw Daryl about five years at the Caloundra Music Festival and I thought for sure he wouldn't sing this, as many artists from old bands won't do their old stuff from the bands they left behind. But Daryl's 2016 rendition of this classic was as fresh as it was in the 1970s. Some say Daryl Braithwaite is Australia's Huey Lewis. I don't think so. I believe Daryl is way above, and his range far broader. The stand outs in his mid-2010s gigs were obviously Howzat, along with 'Horses', and a very punchy yet haunting 'You've Got the Gun'. Daryl Braithwaite turns 72 years young this January 2021, so if Covid-19 permits, go see him live if you can.

Austastic

awesome song, awesome delivery, great band.

I don't know how I got here, but I don't regret it.

Loved this song in the 70's and love it now ❤

Great song from a great band 🤗

I am an old sherbet girl from the seventies. Even my son in his 20's likes it, I fancied daryl something major!!!

I remember the best here came home to cairns too deadly thanks Darryl we love you up far north queensland cheers black brother

Great stuff love it😀

that guitar rift is the most amazing piece..i just float away with it

love that bass !!

That electric guitar riff - every time

Takes me back to being 16 still great song

Such fantastic musicians, reminds me of Wollongong in the early 70's, so much great talent in Australia

once upon a time i thought this was the coolest song ever! i was 8.

A brilliant song by a brilliant band ❤❤

Great Aussie classic. Greetings from England! I'll play this when Australia gets the ashes back in 17/18

Great Aussie classic. Greetings from England!

Love this The rhythmic silences are r r r remarkable !

This brings back a few memories that hot summer

brings back great memories fabulous track

Jeez WA was the best place in the 70's. Surfing at Yallingup and Margret River , Perth, City Beach High School. I saw Sherbet in Concert in Perth and then went on to a surfing film in Subi. Fab days.

Keep coming back to this video. Best song ever ..

Fantastic memories when I was a teenager

Went straight to NO. 1 first week in NZ. Had never heard of them before because NZ did not play Aussie songs usually.
