Discovered this song on Youtube recently and am curious about its provenance.
A poster called Hershie (of this parish, I presume) has a note on the clip advising, "...not Status Quo. This is a recording of a Swedish band called Freeway", but the vocals sound very like Rossi.
Anyway, great little boogie track with typical Rossi/Frost melodies etc. Maybe somebody has more on it.

Hi Quodec! The singer is a good friend of mine and his vocals shure does sound like a young Francis Rossi. The 2 songs You set the world on fire and Waiting for the day are recorded by Freeway. Their correct titles are Looking For A Way and Soul On Fire. Somewhere here on the forum is a thread about Freeway...search for "demos album" Sinceraly Studio Quo www.fwoshm.com/index/F/1041-freeway-swe--avesta/songs |

Thanks Studio Quo. Yeh, found it under the wrong title and obviously missed the previous discussion.
Here it is in a proper format...
