0:03:44 > 0:03:47# Don't forget that I'm your boy

0:03:47 > 0:03:49# I know my brother has done you proud

0:03:49 > 0:03:51# But he's one foot in the grave

0:03:51 > 0:03:57# Mother, don't you recognise me now?

0:03:57 > 0:03:59# Whoo-hoo!

0:05:34 > 0:05:38# So tired. #

0:05:40 > 0:05:43APPLAUSE

0:05:50 > 0:05:55# Wake up, Maggie, I think I got something to say to you

0:05:57 > 0:06:02# It's late September and I really should be back at school

0:06:04 > 0:06:11# I know I keep you amused But I feel I'm being used

0:06:11 > 0:06:17# Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

0:06:19 > 0:06:25# You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

0:06:26 > 0:06:31# You stole my heart but I love you anyway

0:06:34 > 0:06:40# The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age

0:06:42 > 0:06:46# But that don't worry me none In my eyes you're everything

0:06:49 > 0:06:56# I laughed at all of your jokes My love you didn't need to coax

0:06:56 > 0:07:02# Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

0:07:04 > 0:07:10# You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

0:07:10 > 0:07:16# You stole my heart but I love you anyway

0:07:19 > 0:07:24# All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand

0:07:26 > 0:07:30# But you turned into a lover and mother, what a lover

0:07:30 > 0:07:32# You wore me out

0:07:34 > 0:07:36# All you did was wreck my bed

0:07:36 > 0:07:40# And in the morning kick me in the head

0:07:40 > 0:07:47# Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

0:07:49 > 0:07:56# You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

0:07:56 > 0:08:00# You stole my heart but I love you anyway

0:08:19 > 0:08:24# I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school

0:08:26 > 0:08:32# Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool

0:08:34 > 0:08:40# Or find myself a rock'n'roll band that needs a helpin' hand

0:08:41 > 0:08:49# Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more

0:08:49 > 0:08:52# You made a first-class fool out of me

0:08:52 > 0:08:57# But I'm as blind as a fool can be

0:08:57 > 0:09:01# You stole my heart but I love you anyway. #

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Ronnie!

0:09:41 > 0:09:44APPLAUSE

0:10:41 > 0:10:42# In the morning

0:10:42 > 0:10:45# Don't say you love me

0:10:45 > 0:10:50# Cos I'll only kick you out of the door

0:10:52 > 0:10:54# I know your name is Rita

0:10:54 > 0:10:57# Cos your perfume's smelling sweeter

0:10:57 > 0:11:01# Since when I saw you down on my daddy's floor... #

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Got it!

0:11:14 > 0:11:16# I don't need to tell you

0:11:16 > 0:11:18# That you're looking better

0:11:18 > 0:11:22# But you really shouldn't wear your hair that long

0:11:24 > 0:11:26# Red lips, hair and fingernails

0:11:26 > 0:11:29# I guess you're a mean old Jezebel

0:11:29 > 0:11:33# Let's go upstairs and read my tarot cards

0:11:35 > 0:11:36# Stay with me

0:12:16 > 0:12:19# So in the morning

0:12:19 > 0:12:21# Don't say you love me

0:12:21 > 0:12:26# Cos you know I'll only kick you out the door

0:12:27 > 0:12:30# I know your name is Rita

0:12:30 > 0:12:33# But your perfume's smelling sweeter

0:12:33 > 0:12:36# Since when I saw you down on my daddy's floor

0:12:38 > 0:12:40# Stay with me

0:12:41 > 0:12:43# Stay with me

0:12:43 > 0:12:47# Cos tonight you're gonna stay with me

0:12:49 > 0:12:51# Stay with me

0:12:52 > 0:12:54# Stay with me

0:12:54 > 0:12:57# Cos tonight you're gonna stay with me

0:13:00 > 0:13:02# Stay with me

0:13:02 > 0:13:04# Stay with me

0:13:04 > 0:13:08# Cos tonight you're gonna stay with me

0:14:00 > 0:14:04# You ain't gonna get another chance!

0:14:05 > 0:14:06# Whoo! #

0:14:12 > 0:14:15APPLAUSE

0:14:15 > 0:14:20# I was raised in a clinic down in Oklahoma

0:14:20 > 0:14:23# There were many things I did not possess

0:14:24 > 0:14:27# Never complained, because my father said

0:14:27 > 0:14:30# You'll get your chance before you're my age

0:14:32 > 0:14:35# Took me upstairs and gave me this suit

0:14:35 > 0:14:38# Written all over his face

0:14:40 > 0:14:43# Others may come and others may go

0:14:43 > 0:14:47# But that suit will be around way after you're gone

0:14:47 > 0:14:50# Three-button hand-me-down

0:14:52 > 0:14:54# Three-button hand-me-down

0:15:26 > 0:15:29# Now I had my fair share of neat women

0:15:29 > 0:15:32# But they came between me and my suit

0:15:32 > 0:15:37# There was a filly from Boston A barmaid from Houston

0:15:37 > 0:15:40# Not forgetting the one in Detroit

0:15:42 > 0:15:45# We like you, boy, and we think you're sweet

0:15:45 > 0:15:48# But can't you lose your suit?

0:15:49 > 0:15:52# Oh, no, no, no! You can't do that to me

0:15:52 > 0:15:56# This is what my father said...

0:15:57 > 0:16:00# Others may come and others may go

0:16:00 > 0:16:04# But that suit will be around way after you're gone

0:16:06 > 0:16:08# Three-button hand-me-down

0:16:10 > 0:16:12# Three-button hand-me-down

0:16:14 > 0:16:16# Three-button hand-me-down

0:16:17 > 0:16:19# Three-button hand-me-down

0:16:21 > 0:16:23# Three-button hand-me-down

0:16:25 > 0:16:27# Three-button hand-me-down. #

0:16:32 > 0:16:34APPLAUSE

0:16:46 > 0:16:50# I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon

0:16:50 > 0:16:53# But to settle down and write you a line

0:16:53 > 0:16:58# I've been meaning to phone you, but from Minnesota

0:16:58 > 0:17:01# Hell, it's been a very long time

0:17:01 > 0:17:02# You wear it well

0:17:04 > 0:17:07# A little out of time, but I don't mind

0:17:09 > 0:17:12# Well, I suppose you're thinking

0:17:12 > 0:17:13# I bet he's sinking

0:17:13 > 0:17:16# Or he wouldn't get in touch with me

0:17:18 > 0:17:21# Oh, I ain't begging or losing my head

0:17:21 > 0:17:24# I sure do want you to know

0:17:24 > 0:17:26# That you wear it well

0:17:27 > 0:17:30# There ain't a lady in the land so fine

0:17:33 > 0:17:37# Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate

0:17:37 > 0:17:40# The all-day rock'n'roll shows

0:17:41 > 0:17:44# Their homesick blues and the radical views

0:17:44 > 0:17:47# Haven't left a mark on you

0:17:47 > 0:17:50# You wear it well

0:17:51 > 0:17:54# There ain't a lady in the land so fine

0:17:56 > 0:18:00# Well, I ain't forgetting that you were once mine

0:18:00 > 0:18:03# But I blew it without even tryin'

0:18:03 > 0:18:06# Now I'm eatin' my heart out

0:18:06 > 0:18:09# Tryin' to get a letter through

0:18:27 > 0:18:31# Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on

0:18:32 > 0:18:36# I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town

0:18:36 > 0:18:39# When you sat down and cried on the stairs

0:18:39 > 0:18:44# You knew it didn't cost the earth, but for what it's worth

0:18:44 > 0:18:47# You made me feel a millionaire

0:18:47 > 0:18:49# And you wear it well

0:18:50 > 0:18:53# Madame Onassis got nothing on you

0:18:56 > 0:19:00# Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told

0:19:00 > 0:19:03# That I gotta get back to work

0:19:04 > 0:19:08# So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone

0:19:08 > 0:19:10# Think of me and try not to laugh

0:19:10 > 0:19:13# And I wear it well

0:19:14 > 0:19:17# I don't object if you call collect

0:19:19 > 0:19:23# Cos I ain't forgetting that you were once mine

0:19:24 > 0:19:26# But I blew it without even tryin'

0:19:28 > 0:19:30# Now I'm eatin' my heart out

0:19:30 > 0:19:33# Tryin' to get a letter to you. #

0:19:33 > 0:19:36APPLAUSE

0:19:36 > 0:19:40And now we go to the singles chart once again, and at this week's number six - Rod Stewart.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42APPLAUSE

0:19:52 > 0:19:57# When my friends told me you had someone new

0:19:58 > 0:20:02# I didn't believe a single word was true

0:20:04 > 0:20:07# I told them all, I had faith in you

0:20:08 > 0:20:14# I kept a-right on sayin'

0:20:14 > 0:20:18# Oh, no, not my baby

0:20:18 > 0:20:24# Oh, no, not my sweet baby

0:20:24 > 0:20:29# You're not like all those other girls

0:20:29 > 0:20:33# Who play with the men's hearts like they were toys

0:20:35 > 0:20:39# My mama told me, son, when rumours spread

0:20:39 > 0:20:43# That there is truth somewhere and you should use your head

0:20:45 > 0:20:49# But sure didn't listen to what she said

0:20:49 > 0:20:55# Don't you know I kept a-right on sayin'?

0:20:55 > 0:21:00# Oh, no, not my baby

0:21:00 > 0:21:05# Oh, no, not my sweet baby

0:21:05 > 0:21:10# You're not like all those other girls

0:21:10 > 0:21:15# Who lead you on and tell you lies

0:21:15 > 0:21:21# No, no, my baby

0:21:26 > 0:21:30# Tell me, baby

0:21:30 > 0:21:34# I don't believe what they say, no

0:21:36 > 0:21:40# Oh, no, not my baby

0:21:40 > 0:21:46# Oh, no, not my sweet baby

0:21:46 > 0:21:51# Oh, no, not my baby

0:21:51 > 0:21:56# Oh, no, not my sweet baby

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- # Not my baby - Not my baby

0:21:58 > 0:22:01- # Not my baby - Not my baby

0:22:01 > 0:22:03- # Not my baby - Not my baby

0:22:25 > 0:22:28# I am sailing

0:22:30 > 0:22:31# Home again

0:22:33 > 0:22:35# Across the sea

0:22:37 > 0:22:39# I am sailing

0:22:41 > 0:22:43# Stormy waters

0:22:44 > 0:22:48# To be near you

0:22:48 > 0:22:50# To be free

0:22:52 > 0:22:54# I am flying

0:22:56 > 0:22:58# I am flying

0:23:00 > 0:23:01# Like a bird

0:23:03 > 0:23:06# Across the sky

0:23:07 > 0:23:11# I am flying

0:23:11 > 0:23:14# Passing high clouds

0:23:15 > 0:23:17# To be with you

0:23:18 > 0:23:20# To be free

0:23:22 > 0:23:25# Can you hear me?

0:23:25 > 0:23:29# Can you hear me?

0:23:29 > 0:23:33# Thro' the dark night

0:23:33 > 0:23:36# Far away

0:23:36 > 0:23:40# I am dying

0:23:40 > 0:23:44# For ever crying

0:23:44 > 0:23:48# To be with you

0:23:48 > 0:23:51# Who can say?

0:24:24 > 0:24:27# We are sailing

0:24:27 > 0:24:29# We are sailing... #

0:24:29 > 0:24:31APPLAUSE

0:24:35 > 0:24:38- Hi, boys.- Welcome on board. - Sorry, we're late.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Hello, how do you do?

0:24:41 > 0:24:45And why Rod Stewart? Because his pop song, Sailing,

0:24:45 > 0:24:48was the theme song for the BBC's Sailor series,

0:24:48 > 0:24:50filmed on the Ark Royal.

0:24:50 > 0:24:55You could say she was the BBC's biggest prop of all time.

0:24:55 > 0:25:00Well, Rod, we can't persuade you just to give us the refrain?

0:25:00 > 0:25:01Only if everybody joins me.

0:25:01 > 0:25:03- Right.- Will you join me?

0:25:03 > 0:25:08# I am sailing

0:25:08 > 0:25:12- ALL:- # I am sailing

0:25:12 > 0:25:15# Home again

0:25:15 > 0:25:19# Across the sea... #

0:25:19 > 0:25:21APPLAUSE

0:25:31 > 0:25:35# I didn't know what day it was

0:25:35 > 0:25:39# When you walked into the room

0:25:39 > 0:25:44# I said hello unnoticed

0:25:44 > 0:25:47# You said goodbye too soon

0:25:49 > 0:25:53# Breezing through the clientele

0:25:53 > 0:25:57# Spinning yarns that were so lyrical

0:25:58 > 0:26:02# I really must confess right here

0:26:02 > 0:26:06# The attraction was purely physical

0:26:17 > 0:26:20# I took all those habits of yours

0:26:20 > 0:26:24# That in the beginning were hard to accept

0:26:26 > 0:26:29# Your fashion sense, Beardsley prints

0:26:29 > 0:26:33# I put down to experience

0:26:34 > 0:26:38# The big-bosomed lady with the Dutch accent

0:26:38 > 0:26:42# Who tried to change my point of view

0:26:44 > 0:26:47# Her ad-lib lines were well rehearsed

0:26:47 > 0:26:51# But my heart cried out for you

0:26:51 > 0:26:56# You're in my heart, you're in my soul

0:26:56 > 0:27:00# You'll be my breath should I grow old

0:27:01 > 0:27:05# You are my lover, you're my best friend

0:27:05 > 0:27:07# You're in my soul

0:27:12 > 0:27:15# My love for you is immeasurable

0:27:16 > 0:27:20# My respect for you immense

0:27:21 > 0:27:25# You're ageless, timeless, lace and fineness

0:27:25 > 0:27:28# You're beauty and elegance

0:27:30 > 0:27:34# You're a rhapsody, a comedy

0:27:34 > 0:27:37# You're a symphony and a play

0:27:39 > 0:27:43# You're every love song ever written

0:27:43 > 0:27:47# But, honey, what do you see in me?

0:27:47 > 0:27:51# You're in my heart, you're in my soul

0:27:51 > 0:27:56# You'll be my breath should I grow old

0:27:56 > 0:28:01# You are my lover, you're my best friend

0:28:01 > 0:28:03# You're in my soul... #

0:28:03 > 0:28:05APPLAUSE

0:28:05 > 0:28:07Hello again. Welcome along to the programme

0:28:09 > 0:28:11As usual at this time of the year,

0:28:14 > 0:28:16to our Christmas Special 1976.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22and we're going to travel now to the stage of Olympia, Earl's Court,

0:28:22 > 0:28:25to meet and greet Rod Stewart.

0:28:25 > 0:28:30I dedicate this tune to the newspapers!

0:28:30 > 0:28:32I don't want to talk about it!

0:28:50 > 0:28:53# I can tell by your eyes

0:28:53 > 0:28:59# That you've probably been cryin' for ever

0:29:04 > 0:29:10# And the stars in the sky don't mean nothin' to you

0:29:10 > 0:29:13# They're a mirror

0:29:20 > 0:29:26# I don't wanna talk about it

0:29:27 > 0:29:30# How you broke my heart

0:29:34 > 0:29:40# If I stay here just a little bit longer

0:29:42 > 0:29:50# If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart

0:29:53 > 0:29:56# Oh, my heart?

0:30:01 > 0:30:04# If I stand all alone

0:30:04 > 0:30:10# Will the shadow hide the colours of my heart?

0:30:10 > 0:30:13# Blue for the fears

0:30:13 > 0:30:17# Black for the night's tears

0:30:17 > 0:30:22# The stars in the sky don't mean nothin' to you

0:30:22 > 0:30:25# They're a mirror

0:30:32 > 0:30:38# I don't wanna talk about it

0:30:40 > 0:30:43# How you broke my heart

0:30:47 > 0:30:53# If I stay here just a little bit longer

0:30:55 > 0:30:59# If I stay here, won't you listen

0:31:06 > 0:31:09# Oh, my heart?

0:31:45 > 0:31:52# I don't wanna talk about it

0:31:52 > 0:31:56# How you broke my heart

0:32:00 > 0:32:07# If I stay here just a little bit longer

0:32:07 > 0:32:11# If I stay here, won't you... # Sing the song!

0:32:11 > 0:32:16- ALL:- # Listen to my heart

0:32:19 > 0:32:23- # Oh, my heart? # - CHEERING

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Good singing! Good shouting! Good singing!

0:32:44 > 0:32:48# I would have given you all of my heart

0:32:51 > 0:32:54# But there's someone who's torn it apart

0:32:56 > 0:33:00# And she's taken just all that I had

0:33:01 > 0:33:05# But if you want, I'll try to love again

0:33:08 > 0:33:13# Baby, I'll try to love again but I know

0:33:16 > 0:33:19# The first cut is the deepest

0:33:19 > 0:33:21# Baby, I know

0:33:21 > 0:33:25# The first cut is the deepest

0:33:26 > 0:33:32# Cos when it comes to being lucky, she's cursed

0:33:32 > 0:33:36# When it comes to lovin' me she's worst

0:33:41 > 0:33:45# I still want you by my side

0:33:47 > 0:33:51# Just to help me dry the tears that I cried

0:33:53 > 0:33:57# And I'm sure goin' to give you a try

0:33:58 > 0:34:02# Cos if you want I'll try to love again

0:34:04 > 0:34:08# Baby, I'll try to love again

0:34:08 > 0:34:09# But I know

0:34:12 > 0:34:15# The first cut is the deepest

0:34:15 > 0:34:17# Baby, I know

0:34:17 > 0:34:21# The first cut is the deepest

0:34:22 > 0:34:27# Cos when it come to being lucky she's cursed

0:34:29 > 0:34:33# When it come to lovin' me she's worst

0:34:58 > 0:35:02# Still want you by my side

0:35:04 > 0:35:08# Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried

0:35:09 > 0:35:14# And I'm sure gonna give you a try

0:35:14 > 0:35:18# And if you want, I'll try to love again

0:35:21 > 0:35:24# Oh, baby, I'll try to love again

0:35:24 > 0:35:25# But I know

0:35:31 > 0:35:34# The first cut is the deepest

0:35:34 > 0:35:36# Baby, I know

0:35:36 > 0:35:40# The first cut is the deepest

0:35:42 > 0:35:45# When it come to being lucky she was cursed

0:35:47 > 0:35:52# When it come to lovin' me she's worst. #

0:35:52 > 0:35:54APPLAUSE

0:36:09 > 0:36:11# In these days of changing ways

0:36:11 > 0:36:13# So-called liberated days

0:36:13 > 0:36:17# A story comes to mind of a friend of mine

0:36:18 > 0:36:20# Georgie boy was gay, I guess

0:36:20 > 0:36:23# Nothin' more or nothin' less

0:36:23 > 0:36:27# The kindest guy I ever knew

0:36:28 > 0:36:31# His mother's tears fell in vain

0:36:31 > 0:36:33# The afternoon George tried to explain

0:36:33 > 0:36:36# That he needed love like all the rest

0:36:38 > 0:36:41# Pa said there must be a mistake

0:36:41 > 0:36:43# How can my son not be straight

0:36:43 > 0:36:46# After all I've said and done for him

0:36:58 > 0:37:00# Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus

0:37:00 > 0:37:03# Cast out by the ones he loves

0:37:03 > 0:37:06# A victim of these gay days, it seems

0:37:18 > 0:37:20# Georgie went to New York town

0:37:20 > 0:37:23# Where he quickly settled down

0:37:23 > 0:37:26# And soon became the toast of the great white way

0:37:26 > 0:37:30# Accepted by Manhattan's elite

0:37:30 > 0:37:33# In all the places that were chic

0:37:33 > 0:37:36# No party was complete without George

0:37:38 > 0:37:40# Along the boulevards he'd cruise

0:37:40 > 0:37:42# And all the old queens blew a fuse

0:37:42 > 0:37:45# Everybody loved Georgie boy

0:37:57 > 0:38:01# The last time I saw George alive was in the summer of '75

0:38:01 > 0:38:05# He said he was in love I said, I'm pleased

0:38:07 > 0:38:09# George attended the opening night

0:38:09 > 0:38:11# Of another Broadway hype

0:38:11 > 0:38:15# But split before the final curtain fell

0:38:16 > 0:38:19# Deciding to take a short cut home

0:38:19 > 0:38:21# Arm-in-arm they meant no wrong

0:38:21 > 0:38:24# A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue

0:38:36 > 0:38:38# Out of a darkened side street

0:38:38 > 0:38:41# Came a New Jersey gang with just one aim

0:38:41 > 0:38:44# To roll some innocent passer-by

0:38:46 > 0:38:48# There ensued a fearful fight

0:38:48 > 0:38:51# Screams rang out in the night

0:38:51 > 0:38:54# Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone

0:38:56 > 0:38:58# A leather kid, a switchblade knife

0:38:58 > 0:39:00# He did not intend to take his life

0:39:00 > 0:39:04# He just pushed his luck a little too far that night

0:39:05 > 0:39:08# The sight of blood dispersed the gang

0:39:08 > 0:39:10# A crowd gathered, the police came

0:39:10 > 0:39:14# An ambulance screamed to a halt on 53rd and 3rd

0:39:25 > 0:39:27# Georgie's life ended there

0:39:27 > 0:39:29# But I ask who really cares

0:39:29 > 0:39:33# George once said to me and I quote

0:39:34 > 0:39:37# He said, never wait or hesitate

0:39:37 > 0:39:39# Get in, kid, before it's too late

0:39:39 > 0:39:42# You may never get another chance

0:39:45 > 0:39:47# Cos youth's a mask But it don't last

0:39:47 > 0:39:50# Live it long and live it fast

0:39:50 > 0:39:53# Georgie was a friend of mine. #

0:40:11 > 0:40:14APPLAUSE

0:40:14 > 0:40:17And jumping ten places this week to number four, it's Rod Stewart,

0:40:17 > 0:40:18and the question you ask yourself

0:40:18 > 0:40:21when you look in the mirror every morning - Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?

0:40:22 > 0:40:23# Sugar

0:40:35 > 0:40:37# Ooh, ooh, ooh

0:40:54 > 0:40:57# She sits alone

0:40:57 > 0:40:59# Waiting for suggestions

0:40:59 > 0:41:01# He's so nervous

0:41:01 > 0:41:03# Avoiding all the questions

0:41:03 > 0:41:05# His lips are dry

0:41:05 > 0:41:07# Her heart is gently pounding

0:41:07 > 0:41:09# Don't you just know

0:41:09 > 0:41:12# Exactly what they're thinking?

0:41:12 > 0:41:14# If you want my body

0:41:14 > 0:41:16# And you think I'm sexy

0:41:16 > 0:41:19# Come on, sugar, let me know

0:41:20 > 0:41:22# If you really need me

0:41:22 > 0:41:24# Just reach out and touch me

0:41:24 > 0:41:27# Come on, honey, tell me so

0:41:27 > 0:41:29# Tell me so, baby

0:41:45 > 0:41:48# He's acting shy

0:41:48 > 0:41:50# Looking for an answer

0:41:50 > 0:41:52# Come on, honey

0:41:52 > 0:41:54# Let's spend the night together

0:41:54 > 0:41:56# Now hold on a minute

0:41:56 > 0:41:59# Before we go much further

0:41:59 > 0:42:01# Give me a dime

0:42:01 > 0:42:03# So I can phone my mother

0:42:03 > 0:42:05# They catch a cab

0:42:05 > 0:42:07# To his high rise apartment

0:42:07 > 0:42:09# At last he can tell her

0:42:09 > 0:42:12# Exactly what his heart meant

0:42:12 > 0:42:14# If you want my body

0:42:14 > 0:42:16# And you think I'm sexy

0:42:16 > 0:42:19# Come on, honey, tell me so

0:42:19 > 0:42:22# If you really need me

0:42:22 > 0:42:24# Just reach out and touch me

0:42:24 > 0:42:28# Come on, sugar, let me know

0:42:45 > 0:42:49# His heart's beating like a drum... #

0:42:49 > 0:42:52APPLAUSE

0:42:52 > 0:42:55Good evening! Welcome to the Simmonscourt Pavilion

0:42:55 > 0:42:57here in Dublin. I'm standing on the stage

0:42:57 > 0:43:00in front of curtains which have not yet opened,

0:43:00 > 0:43:05where 6,000 fans are baying for the sound of Rod Stewart's music.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07A little later in the programme,

0:43:07 > 0:43:12we're going to have a recorded chat with Rod and his wife, Alana.

0:43:12 > 0:43:15It would be impertinent of me to keep you waiting any longer - on with the show.

0:43:15 > 0:43:17- Thank you, my dear!- Go!

0:43:17 > 0:43:20Here we go!

0:43:34 > 0:43:37# Who's that knocking on my door?

0:43:37 > 0:43:40# It's gotta be a quarter to four

0:43:42 > 0:43:47# Is it you again coming round for more?

0:43:50 > 0:43:53# Well, you can love me tonight if you want

0:43:55 > 0:43:58# But in the morning make sure you're gone

0:43:58 > 0:44:00# I'm talkin' to you

0:44:00 > 0:44:03# Hot legs, wearing me out

0:44:04 > 0:44:07# Hot legs, you can scream and shout

0:44:08 > 0:44:11# Hot legs, are you still in school?

0:44:11 > 0:44:14# I love you, honey... #

0:44:14 > 0:44:18Where did you meet this guy or first set your eyes upon him?

0:44:18 > 0:44:21Well, we met briefly in Los Angeles several times,

0:44:21 > 0:44:24then we sort of really formally met

0:44:24 > 0:44:27at a dinner party that Irving Lazar gave.

0:44:27 > 0:44:32And when you saw him across a crowded room, was it love at first...?

0:44:32 > 0:44:34No, I thought he was sort of very cocky and sure of himself

0:44:34 > 0:44:36and I thought, "Who does he think he is, anyway?"

0:44:36 > 0:44:39What did you talk about on the first night?

0:44:39 > 0:44:41I don't actually remember what we talked about.

0:44:41 > 0:44:45What I do remember was I realised that he was really a terrific person,

0:44:45 > 0:44:48very bright and very sensitive and all the things

0:44:48 > 0:44:51that I hadn't thought he was and had a wonderful sense of humour.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53And we stayed up till six o'clock in the morning talking

0:44:53 > 0:44:57and I had a completely different impression of him by then.

0:44:57 > 0:45:00- What did we do, darling, from six o'clock onwards?- Don't be rude!

0:45:00 > 0:45:02The rest is not history! Let me finally ask you this.

0:45:02 > 0:45:04You've been at it now for several years -

0:45:04 > 0:45:06and singing as well, Rod! -

0:45:06 > 0:45:09for quite a few years now,

0:45:09 > 0:45:12you've maintained a high and very prominent position.

0:45:12 > 0:45:14How have you managed that?

0:45:14 > 0:45:17I just try and make good music that I like, and I just hope

0:45:17 > 0:45:20everybody else likes it. If they don't like it, I'm finished.

0:45:22 > 0:45:25# Some guys have all the luck

0:45:26 > 0:45:29# Some guys have all the pain

0:45:29 > 0:45:33# Some guys get all the breaks

0:45:33 > 0:45:37# Some guys do nothing but complain

0:45:38 > 0:45:43# Alone in a crowd on a bus after working, I'm dreaming

0:45:46 > 0:45:51# The guy next to me has a girl in his arms, my arms are empty

0:45:54 > 0:45:59# How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you?

0:46:02 > 0:46:07# Seems so unfair when there's love everywhere but there's none for me

0:46:08 > 0:46:11# Some guys have all the luck

0:46:11 > 0:46:15# Some guys have all the pain

0:46:16 > 0:46:18# Some guys get all the breaks

0:46:18 > 0:46:22# Some guys do nothing but complain

0:46:22 > 0:46:25# Whoo whoo whoo

0:46:27 > 0:46:29# Whoo whoo whoo

0:46:32 > 0:46:36# Someone to take on a walk by the lake

0:46:36 > 0:46:37# Lord, let it be me

0:46:39 > 0:46:45# Someone who's shy, someone who'd cry at sad movies

0:46:47 > 0:46:52# I know I would die if I ever found out she was foolin' me

0:46:52 > 0:46:57# You're just a dream, and as real as it seems, I ain't that lucky

0:47:01 > 0:47:04# Some guys have all the luck

0:47:04 > 0:47:08# Some guys have all the pain

0:47:08 > 0:47:12# Some guys get all the breaks

0:47:12 > 0:47:16# Some guys do nothing but complain

0:47:16 > 0:47:18# Whoo whoo whoo. #

0:47:18 > 0:47:22WOGAN THEME MUSIC

0:47:22 > 0:47:26How a man who's lived your life can look as healthy as you look.

0:47:26 > 0:47:29LAUGHTER

0:47:29 > 0:47:32Well, yes, I have lived some life and I've got a lot more to live.

0:47:32 > 0:47:36You have stayed with your current lady, Kelly Emberg,

0:47:36 > 0:47:38for a long time now.

0:47:38 > 0:47:41Are we gonna finally hear the ding-dong of wedding bells?

0:47:41 > 0:47:43Would you do it again, in other words?

0:47:43 > 0:47:44I'm a firm believer in marriage, I really do.

0:47:44 > 0:47:47That makes me sound very old-fashioned but I love marriage,

0:47:47 > 0:47:49- I think it can work. - And when you settle down...

0:47:49 > 0:47:51Did I say that? I did say that, didn't I?

0:47:51 > 0:47:54- Yes.- It'll be all over the papers tomorrow.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56"Rod Stewart settles. Old age cripples Rod Stew..."

0:47:56 > 0:47:58Not quite settle down,

0:47:58 > 0:48:00I just said I believe in marriage.

0:48:00 > 0:48:02But when you get back into the rock'n'roll,

0:48:02 > 0:48:05- is all the old wildness going to come back?- True.

0:48:05 > 0:48:06LAUGHTER

0:48:30 > 0:48:33# Ever seen a blind man cross the road

0:48:33 > 0:48:36# Trying to reach the other side?

0:48:41 > 0:48:44# Ever seen a young girl growing old

0:48:45 > 0:48:49# Trying to make herself a bride?

0:48:54 > 0:48:57# But once you think you're in, you're out

0:49:00 > 0:49:03# That don't mean a single thing without

0:49:04 > 0:49:06# The handbags and the gladrags

0:49:06 > 0:49:12# That your old grandad had to sweat to buy ya

0:49:23 > 0:49:25# Once I was a young man

0:49:25 > 0:49:29# And all I thought I had to do was smile

0:49:34 > 0:49:38# You are still a young girl

0:49:38 > 0:49:42# And you bought everything in style

0:49:48 > 0:49:51# They told me you missed school today

0:49:53 > 0:49:58# Well, I suggest you just throw them all away

0:49:58 > 0:50:00# The handbags and the gladrags

0:50:00 > 0:50:06# That your old grandad had to sweat to buy ya

0:50:18 > 0:50:22# Sing a song of six-pence for your sake

0:50:22 > 0:50:24# And take a bottle full of rye

0:50:30 > 0:50:33# Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake

0:50:33 > 0:50:37# And bake them all in a pie

0:50:42 > 0:50:47# They told me you missed school today

0:50:49 > 0:50:53# Well, I suggest, you just throw them all away

0:50:53 > 0:50:55# The handbags and the gladrags

0:52:49 > 0:52:53# That I'm in the mood for love?

0:53:15 > 0:53:18# Why stop to think of whether

0:53:20 > 0:53:25# This little dream might fade?

0:53:26 > 0:53:31# We've put our hearts together

0:53:31 > 0:53:36# Now we are one, I'm not afraid

0:53:36 > 0:53:41# And if there's a cloud above

0:53:42 > 0:53:46# If it should rain, we'll let it

0:53:48 > 0:53:52# But for tonight, forget it

0:54:17 > 0:54:20thank you for coming out in the rain.

0:54:20 > 0:54:24We had apparently 80,000 requests for tickets for this show

0:54:24 > 0:54:26which I find hard to believe.

0:54:27 > 0:54:30So, we're going to play some new songs and the first one up

0:54:30 > 0:54:33is about the trials and tribulations

0:54:33 > 0:54:35of coming into the music business

0:54:35 > 0:54:38and a tribute to my dad and it's called You Can't...

0:54:38 > 0:54:41CHEERING Oh, you know it!

0:54:49 > 0:54:51# Oh, yeah!

0:54:58 > 0:55:00# I stood up straight and sang

0:55:00 > 0:55:02# For the record-company man

0:55:02 > 0:55:05# My enthusiasm filled the room

0:55:06 > 0:55:08# I was young and I was keen

0:55:08 > 0:55:10# With the devil in my stream

0:55:10 > 0:55:13# As I hollered out an old blues tune

0:55:14 > 0:55:16# We can't sign you, son

0:55:16 > 0:55:18# Cos you don't fit in the mould

0:55:18 > 0:55:22# It's your hair and your nose and your clothes

0:55:22 > 0:55:24# I said, thank you, gentlemen

0:55:24 > 0:55:26# For this opportunity

0:55:26 > 0:55:29# Now move on down the road

0:55:29 > 0:55:30# I remember thinking

0:55:33 > 0:55:37# They can't stop me now The world is waiting

0:55:56 > 0:55:58# Well, it was rough and it was tough

0:55:58 > 0:56:00# But I couldn't get enough

0:56:00 > 0:56:03# Of this rhythm and blues I craved

0:56:03 > 0:56:06# I was singing in the pubs

0:56:06 > 0:56:08# Was singing in the clubs

0:56:08 > 0:56:11# Then along came Maggie May

0:56:13 > 0:56:15# All the things he said to me

0:56:15 > 0:56:17# And all the things I heard

0:56:17 > 0:56:20# I had a point to prove, you know what

0:56:20 > 0:56:22# I will climb this mountain

0:56:22 > 0:56:24# With this God-given gift

0:56:24 > 0:56:27# If it's the last thing that I do

0:56:27 > 0:56:28# And I remember thinking
