Sweet Emotion – Aerosmith (1975)

“Sweet Emotion” was a song by American rock band Aerosmith. It was released on May 19, 1975 as the first single from the band’s breakthrough smash album “Toys In The Attic.” The song began a string of pop hits and large-scale mainstream success for the band that would continue for the remainder of the 1970s. The song was written by lead singer Steven Tyler and bassist Tom Hamilton. “Sweet Emotion” was released as a single in 1975, and peaked at #36 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the band’s breakthrough single and the first Top 40 hit for the band.
