0:38:53 > 0:38:57So we'd like to dedicate this next song

0:38:57 > 0:39:01to the one and only Mr Gerry Anderson,

0:39:01 > 0:39:02and, eh...

0:39:02 > 0:39:04APPLAUSE

0:39:11 > 0:39:14This song is called Blue.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32# What's the chances that I'd see you here

0:39:32 > 0:39:34# After all this time

0:39:34 > 0:39:36# All these years?

0:39:36 > 0:39:40# Seems like only yesterday I was holding you

0:39:43 > 0:39:45# Are you someone else's sweetheart now?

0:39:45 > 0:39:49# Do you still hang out with the same old crowd?

0:39:49 > 0:39:54# Everybody else has settled down with somebody

0:39:56 > 0:39:59# White

0:39:59 > 0:40:03# In a chiffon dress, trimmed in lace

0:40:03 > 0:40:05# Bright

0:40:05 > 0:40:07# In the midday sun

0:40:10 > 0:40:12# Blue

0:40:12 > 0:40:17# Is the colour that I see on you

0:40:17 > 0:40:19# Blue

0:40:19 > 0:40:21# Just seeing you

0:40:23 > 0:40:26# And I won't remind you

0:40:26 > 0:40:29# What you left behind you

0:40:29 > 0:40:33# Rain on your parade

0:40:37 > 0:40:40# Something in your eyes

0:40:40 > 0:40:44# A look I know you can't disguise

0:40:44 > 0:40:49# Still we both pretend there's nothing there

0:40:51 > 0:40:54# Blue

0:40:54 > 0:40:58# The thought of you with somebody new

0:40:58 > 0:41:01# Blue

0:41:02 > 0:41:04# I'm no good at lying

0:41:05 > 0:41:08# I can't keep these hands tied

0:41:08 > 0:41:12# I can't watch in vain

0:41:12 > 0:41:16# Watch us tearing out the last page

0:41:16 > 0:41:21# In another life, there's a chance we would survive

0:41:21 > 0:41:25# So why throw a line?

0:41:25 > 0:41:29# Look for a sign

0:41:29 > 0:41:33# But it's no use

0:41:36 > 0:41:41# It's no use

0:41:42 > 0:41:45# What's the chances that I see you here

0:41:45 > 0:41:49# Some other day, some other year?

0:41:49 > 0:41:54# Will this feeling that I carry round ever disappear?

0:41:56 > 0:41:59# White

0:41:59 > 0:42:03# In a chiffon dress, trimmed in lace

0:42:03 > 0:42:05# Bright

0:42:05 > 0:42:08# In the midday sun

0:42:10 > 0:42:12# Blue

0:42:12 > 0:42:17# Is the colour that I see on you

0:42:17 > 0:42:21# Blue

0:42:21 > 0:42:24# I'll be seeing you. #

0:42:31 > 0:42:33APPLAUSE

0:42:55 > 0:42:58We have a genuine Irish music legend for you now.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04for over 40 years,

0:43:04 > 0:43:07first coming to our attention back in 1967

0:43:07 > 0:43:09as a member of the Johnstons.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11In the mid-1970s,

0:43:14 > 0:43:16but moved towards rock and pop

0:43:16 > 0:43:20when he released his solo album Hard Station in 1981.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22He went on to produce modern classics

0:43:22 > 0:43:26such as The Island, Nobody Knows and of course, The Homes of Donegal.

0:43:26 > 0:43:29His songs have been covered by the likes of Cher,

0:43:29 > 0:43:32Tina Turner and Phil Collins, to name but a few,

0:43:32 > 0:43:36and Bob Dylan has declared him a personal favourite.

0:43:36 > 0:43:40Performing a brand-new song, Oceans Of Time,

0:43:40 > 0:43:44Please give a huge welcome to the one and only Mr Paul Brady.

0:44:25 > 0:44:29# Come every day, it's sink or swim

0:44:33 > 0:44:36# Take it to heart or on a whim

0:44:40 > 0:44:44# Are we the loser or the hero?

0:44:44 > 0:44:47# It's a dice throw

0:44:47 > 0:44:49# So what if we lose our focus?

0:44:50 > 0:44:52# Nobody's going to notice

0:44:54 > 0:44:58# Oceans of time will wash your mind

0:44:58 > 0:45:02# Ebbing and flowing through our lives

0:45:02 > 0:45:06# Why should we hurry up the tide?

0:45:08 > 0:45:09# You and I

0:45:13 > 0:45:17# Only have oceans of time

0:45:23 > 0:45:27# Sunrise to sunrise, it's a game

0:45:31 > 0:45:34# 24 hours, it doesn't change

0:45:38 > 0:45:44# No point to beg, steal or borrow from tomorrow

0:45:45 > 0:45:49# Whatever we need, we have it

0:45:49 > 0:45:51# Let's not get stuck in traffic

0:45:53 > 0:45:56# Oceans of time will wash your mind

0:45:56 > 0:46:00# Ebbing and flowing through our lives

0:46:00 > 0:46:05# Why should we hurry up the tide?

0:46:06 > 0:46:08# You and I

0:46:11 > 0:46:15# Only have oceans of time

0:46:18 > 0:46:20# Yeah

0:46:20 > 0:46:22# Oh

0:46:36 > 0:46:41# Yeah

0:46:41 > 0:46:45# Oceans of time will wash your mind

0:46:46 > 0:46:49# Ebbing and flowing through our lives

0:46:49 > 0:46:53# Why should we hurry up the tide?

0:46:55 > 0:46:56# You and I

0:47:00 > 0:47:04# Only have oceans of time

0:47:07 > 0:47:13# Only have oceans of time

0:47:20 > 0:47:22# Yeah

0:47:25 > 0:47:32# Oh

0:47:32 > 0:47:34# Yeah, yeah, yeah

0:47:34 > 0:47:39# Hey, oh

0:47:39 > 0:47:42# Oh, why? #

0:47:46 > 0:47:49APPLAUSE

0:47:49 > 0:47:50Thank you.

0:47:59 > 0:48:00Thanks very much.

0:48:02 > 0:48:06Well, the last time I sung this next song in Belfast

0:48:06 > 0:48:10was actually in this hall, a little over three years ago,

0:48:10 > 0:48:15with this wonderful orchestra and conductor here that you have tonight.

0:48:15 > 0:48:19So it's a great pleasure for me to get a chance to sing it again.

0:48:19 > 0:48:23And, eh...it's a song called Nobody Knows.

0:48:25 > 0:48:27One, two...

0:48:58 > 0:49:02# Johnny's got high expectations

0:49:03 > 0:49:06# He's going to rise

0:49:13 > 0:49:16# Everyone knows that Johnny is ready

0:49:17 > 0:49:20# He's ready to fly

0:49:26 > 0:49:30# Up on the rooftop he turns to the crowd

0:49:32 > 0:49:34# No-one is waiting

0:49:34 > 0:49:37# No-one is there

0:49:39 > 0:49:44# Nobody knows why Elvis threw it all away

0:49:45 > 0:49:50# Nobody knows what Ruby had to hide

0:49:53 > 0:49:57# Nobody knows why some of us get broken hearts

0:49:59 > 0:50:04# And some of us find a world that's clear and bright

0:50:06 > 0:50:09# You could be packed up and ready

0:50:10 > 0:50:12# Knowing exactly where to go

0:50:13 > 0:50:15# How can you miss the connection?

0:50:17 > 0:50:18# No use in asking

0:50:18 > 0:50:21# The answer is nobody knows

0:50:24 > 0:50:25# No use in asking

0:50:25 > 0:50:28# The answer is nobody knows

0:50:43 > 0:50:45# Johnny will keep his illusions

0:50:50 > 0:50:51# What else can he do?

0:50:57 > 0:51:00# And you can pretend that it would be different

0:51:01 > 0:51:03# If it happened to you

0:51:10 > 0:51:14# But up on the rooftop it's a whole other world

0:51:16 > 0:51:24# And who could see heaven and not want to stay?

0:51:26 > 0:51:31# Nobody knows why Elvis threw it all away

0:51:34 > 0:51:38# Nobody knows what Ruby had to hide

0:51:41 > 0:51:46# Nobody knows why some of us get broken hearts

0:51:48 > 0:51:52# And some of us find a world that's clear and bright

0:51:55 > 0:51:58# You could be packed up and ready

0:51:58 > 0:52:01# Knowing exactly where to go

0:52:02 > 0:52:03# How can you miss the connection?

0:52:05 > 0:52:07# No use in asking

0:52:07 > 0:52:10# The answer is nobody knows

0:52:12 > 0:52:14# No use in asking

0:52:14 > 0:52:17# The answer is nobody knows

0:52:19 > 0:52:21# Hey

0:52:21 > 0:52:24# The answer is nobody knows

0:52:38 > 0:52:44# Yeah, yeah, yeah

0:52:44 > 0:52:50# Oh

0:52:50 > 0:52:51# Nobody knows. #
