The Sweat was a power-pop outfit from Belfast, North Ireland in the late 1970s and early 80s. They're perhaps best known for their single "Why Did You Have to Lie" from their LP No More Running. The group was originally called No Sweat before being sued by Pete Townsend's Eel Pie Record label who promoted a group of the same name. Read more on Last.fm.
