Episode 1 Later... with Jools Holland

Welcome to a brand-new series. Welcome to Elbow.

# I am electric. # With a bottle in me.

# Got a bottle in me. # And glory be these lockers are

ignoring me. # I'm from another century.

# I am a preacher. # When I've got it on me.

# And I've got it on me. # And glory be their ignoring me.

# We never learn from history. # Hey, I am the beau who loved her

so in every song. # And I designed that little mystery

on your tongue. # I've broken jaws protecting laws

to keep you free. # I made your day so take a seat by

me. # I am an old tree.

# Gonna talk my jaw free. # Someone come and get me.

# Another night beside myself would finish me.

# Give us G T and sympathy. # I am the die-hard with an empty

dance card propping up a young bar. # I'm pouring oil in double time

upon the troubled rising tide inside of me.

# Upon my history # . I have broken jaws protecting laws

to keep proofreading. I made your day so take a seat by me.

I am the bone who love to you so. # I have a man, I love him so

I have broken jaws, protecting laws, to keep you free. I have made

your day so keep a seat by me. We are delighted to have Elbow. From

Los Angeles, we have Engelbert Humperdinck. We are delighted to

welcome from Copenhagen, Agnes O'Byrne. -- Agnes about.

Also a collective with marvellous tunes that have been number one,

Clean Bandit froth stop --. From Leeds, Eagulls. From Stockholm,

London and New York, it is Neneh Cherry.

# I have a man, I love him so much. # Sometimes I hate it, just can't

let go. # Together we stand, divided we

fall. # Driving me crazy, I need it all.

# On my 28th day he is my victim. # He is my saviour, he breaks my

phone. # The things that we say, all

stacked in one pile. # Stay fresh and good while upright

I call. # Too many times you come crawl,

then say sorry too late. # Paper cup regrets will not stick,

better change. # Too many times you come crawl,

then say sorry too late. # Paper cup regrets will not stick,

better change. # Need to be right, right to be

wrong. # Sometimes a loser, lost down the

hall. # Leave me alone but don't leave me

lonely. # And please don't look now, can you

see this? # Does my ass look big in these new

trousers. # My ego won't let me, I forget.

# I feel so small, I hate you, I hate you.

# I love you, I love you, I love it all.

I love you. # Too many times you come crawl,

then say sorry too late. # Paper cup regrets will not stick,

better change. # Too many times you come crawl,

then say sorry too late. # Paper cup regrets will not stick,

better change. # Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

# Husband and wife, leaking perfection.

# All kinds of fun, oceans of pride. # We're super, why? We got

protection. # We got protection.

# Too many times you come crawl, then say sorry too late.

# Paper cup regrets will not stick, better change.

# Too many times you come crawl, then say sorry too late.

# Paper cup regrets will not stick, better change. # I love you. Yes, I

do. Love you. I hate you. I hate you. Love you. I hate you. I love

you. Hate you. I love you. I hate you. # .

The wonderful Neneh Cherry. Her first album for 18 years. Our next

artists are a collective but originally formed from a string

quartet at Cambridge University. They are Clean Bandit.

# You can see there's something in the way.

# I've tried to show you, my door is open.

# I don't know how much more I can take.

# Since you've chosen, to leave me frozen.

# Am I the only one, who see's what you've become?

# Will you drift away? # We're running out of time, two

wrongs can make it right. # Could I make you stay?

# People making choices they can't fake.

# Sacrifice it all and maybe say. # Something extraordinary.

# Something real (something real). # To fill my days and nights with

something. # That I can feel.

# I'm not gonna compromise. # Surely you can simplify?

# Say you feel the same. # You've wandered down a path I

can't explain. # Have you seen her? The grass is

greener. # To let me pass you by would be a

shame. # If she's your only then why are

you lonely? # Cos I'm the only one, who knows

the things you've done. # I'm so good for you.

# We're running out of time, two wrongs can make it right.

# Could I make you do? # Something extraordinary.

# Something real (something real). # To fill my days and nights with

something. # That I can feel (I can feel). I'm

not gonna compromise. # Surely you can simplify?

# Say you feel the same. # Just don't say it will be all

right # You're not holding yourself in your arms tonight.

# Don't say it will all be fine. # In only a moment you'll say

goodbye. # I, I, I, I, I...

# Something extraordinary. # Something real.

# To fill my days and nights with something.

# That I can feel (I can feel). # Oh, oh, oh, oh.

# I, I, I, I, I. # Something extraordinary.

# Something real. # To fill my days and nights with

something. # That I can feel.

# Just don't say it will be all right.

# You're not holding yourself in your arms tonight.

# Don't say it will all be fine. # In only a moment you'll say

goodbye. # . That was Clean Bandit featuring Rae

Morris. All right, so now, I think it is time to welcome a legend in

the corner. We like people who have been very successful and selling

great records over the years. So we welcome at the piano, Engelbert

Humperdinck! It is really great to have you here. Now, you have got

this new record, it is your 80th record, it is your first record of

duets ever, amazing people, Elton John, Beverley Knight, that is just

the tip of the iceberg. I'm credible idea, when did you decide to do --

why did you decide to do duets record now so late? I was listening

to one of Elton John's live shows. He said, I was struggling and

waiting for Engelbert Humperdinck to come along. That got the ball

rolling. You said, I have come along. He said it was wonderful. He

said he was the honeycomb and everyone else followed. Where does

the title come from? He said, my son said because we call everybody up,

it is Engelbert Calling. The next one will be called Engelbert redial!

He calls back. In the 1960s, that is when he first became a phenomenon,

selling millions of records and hitting the TV screens and becoming

a huge star all over the world. We have got a clip from Top Of The Pops

I think in 1967. It is one of your marvellous songs, Last Waltz.

# I had the last waltz with you, two lonely people together.

# all fell in love with you, the last waltz will last forever.

That is great. You are one of Britain's greatest

sinners there are. Was it a different world to the rock 'n' roll

world that was going on? It happened in the same era. Release Me came

along in 1967. It was doing nothing for three months and then I did

Sunday night at the London Palladium and then it went up to 127,000 a day

from 80,000. It stopped the Beatles from going to number one with their

30th number one. That is an amazing story, people all over the world

buying that record. On the record you have revisited the song Spanish

Eyes which Elvis recorded. Were you good friends with Elvis? Nella Macri

yes, he was a want for man. We saw each other a lot in Vegas. He said

some wonderful things, he said he always considered me the twin

brother he lost at birth. I think that is one of the reasons he put

those sideburns on! That is lovely! Also, there is another and new

version on here of Release Me. That is an amazing song. Where did you

get that song from? That song came from Nashville. It was a country

song to start with. It was given a wonderful arrangement over here in

London. All of a sudden, it just took off. It made my day, made my

year, made my life actually. And thank you for choosing it for me to

do with you tonight. We are looking forward to it. We will be singing

with the trio later on. Looking forward to that, a marvellous song,

and marvellous guest to have here. Superb. Engelbert Humperdink, thank

you very much. See you later. And so, we will be hearing the great

song Release Me in a moment. But now, from Leeds, we welcome the

Eagulls! # My eyes feel funny and I can't

seem to think. # The voice inside my head tells me

to flinch when I sing. # I've flipped my wig back, wound my

neck in. # Done all things that don't help.

# Don't think I have a problem. # I just think I like to feel I'm

possessed. # I'm possessed.

# I don't want to know what you think.

# I know something else. # I don't want to know what you

think. # I know something else.

# I'm possessed. # I'm possessed.

# I'm possessed. # I don't want to know what you

think. # I don't want to know what you

think. # I don't want to know what you

think. # I know something else.

# I'm possessed. # I'm possessed.

# My eyes feel funny and I can't seem to think.

# The voice inside my head tells me to flinch when I sing.

# I've flipped my wig back, wound my neck in.

# Done all things that don't help. # Don't think I have a problem.

# I just think I like to feel I'm possessed. #.

CHEERING # Please Release Me.

# Let me go. # For I.

# Don't love you anymore. # To waste our lives.

# Would be a sin. # Release Me.

# And let me love again. # I have found.

# A new love dear. # And I will always.

# Want her near. # Her lips are warm.

# While yours are cold. # Release me, my darling.

# Let me go. # For I.

# Don't love you anymore. # So release me.

# And let me love again. # Please release me.

# Can't you see. # You'd be a fool.

# To cling to me. # To live a lie.

# Would bring us pain. # Release me.

# And let me love again. #. The legendary Engelbert

Humperdinck! Therefore that, we enjoyed Eagulls. And now, Elbow!

# If you wake in the quake in the roll of the heartbroken.

# Pounding the ground in a sawn off ballet.

# Bring us in an indigo dawn with the lovelorn and renegade.

# You always found peace in the grip of the beat, darling.

# Time alone with the pounding of your heart.

# As it starts to heal you'll find a better mirror in another.

# You have never known dumbfounded. # So out of reach and hollowed

through. # Blue and white the light and sound

surrounded. # As the music pulls you through.

# And on that hallelujah morning. # In the arms of new love, the peace

that you feel's real life. # Go straight to the place where you

first lost your balance. # And find your feet with the people

that you love. # And bring us in an indigo dawn

with the lovelorn and renegade. # Yes, you were the eyes of a men

not forgotten. # Get hold of the night that rises

in your blood. # Focus on your pulse, focus on your

breath, know that we're never far away.

# You have never known dumbfounded. # So out of reach and hollowed

through. # Blue and white the light and sound

surrounded. # As the music pulls you through.

# And on that hallelujah morning. # In the arms of new love, the peace

that you feel's real life. # You have never known dumbfounded.

So out of reach and followed through. Blue and white than light

and sound surrounded. As the music pulls you through. And on that

hallelujah morning. In the arms of new love, the piece that you feel 's

real life. # . From then number one EP. Now it is

then a cherry. -- Neneh Cherry. Welcome back to the show. We really

have missed you. You have not heard a solo record for 18 years. Why have

we had to wait so long? I think I needed to take a left turn. After

I've finished my last album, Man, I was a bit tired of myself. I was 16

when I joined. I'd took some time out to be with my family and to kind

of not be a front person for a while. I was writing and

collaborating and I was in a band for a while. That kind of thing. The

album has been around me. It has been brewing. I was all was going to

make it. 18 years since your last solo record. Is the act of making

and engaging music different? It is always changing and it is always

different. I have always come back to my roots a bit. I made a record

before this, which was pretty raw. We recorded this album live. Getting

there. So, BBC Two is, of course, celebrating capturing wonderful

music on film. You're one of those singers. This is your first

performance in June, 1993. The show was in its second series. # I took a

picture with my camera. I like my own bedroom best. I put chill

fingers through my... Watch out how you know. Watch out how you are

giving. Watch out how you know. # . That was the first one. That was the

first time you were on the show. I was trying to remember what was

where. That was our second series. That has been captured. Here we are

capturing more and keeping going. 18 years have flown by. You have been

doing this 22 years. White I think 270 years! -- I think 270 years!

There is always something new to discover with music. There is always

something fresh, a fresh pitch to come out. At this point in your

career, the last question would be best. You have a musical family. You

are surrounded by a lot of interesting people. All these year

later, do think those things are very important? I think that it is

all there in my backbone. It was like going in the studio and

bringing panic for the first time. Not really knowing what I was going

to do but feeling, on balance, it is in there. I need to maybe know it in

here. I think that is like, you are just saying, music is was

different. There are always places to go where you have never been.

That is the joy. I have it all in there somewhere. We are looking

forward to hearing more of it in a short while. Thank you very much for

joining us. Now from Copan Hagen, Denmark, the wonderful voice of

Agnes Obel. # I wanna buy you roses.

# Cos the words are dead. # Follow in the blindness.

# On the arrow head. # Cos the words are dead.

# And you know it. # Yeah, the words are dead.

# Lower them down. # Didn't know if you could deny the

dead. # Leaving them in silence on their

mouldy bed. # Oh, I am numb.

# And over their kingdom come. # Lower me down.

# Oh, don't cry for me. # Oh, don't cry for me.

# Oh, don't you cry for me. # Lower them down in the ground. #

Lower them down in the ground. # Lower them down in the ground.

Walking down the street, lost my way. Every thought I had just runs

away. Frustrated, angry. Put my fingers in my ears. I can't

hear you. What I can't here won't upset me. Don't touch me. Don't test

me. Everything is everything. Good things come to those who wait.

Everything is everything. Good things come to those who wait. They

say. I can't here with my right ear. I can't see with the left eye. The

doctor has been telling me I have got the stress. Listen to my chest.

Looking good, I've passed the test. Got my fingers in my ear, I can't

hear you. What I can't here can't upset me. What I know I can't here

can't upset me. Don't touch me, don't stress me. Everything is

everything. Good things come to those who wait, they say. If

everything is everything, good things come to those who wait, they

say. Everything is everything. Good

things come to those who wait. Everything is everything. I mean it.

Good things come to those who wait. I hold you down. I don't want to

know. I want it now, I want it now. I climbed to the top. I can hear

you. Everything, everything is everything. Everything is

everything. Heh, heh. Yeah, yeah. All right.

Yeah, yeah. Oh, oh. Yeah, yeah. All right. That 's right. Oh, oh. Yeah,

yeah. Hold you down. In your filthy ways,

singing me your bitter song. Everything is everything. Everything

is everything. # . Thank you, Neneh Cherry,

Everything. Before that, we enjoyed Agnes Obel. CHEERING And this in

here, the amazing Guy Garvey is at the piano.

It is great to have you on the show. The reason I have got you at the

piano is to discuss something we are going to do in a moment. On this

show, let's face it, as Neneh Cherry was then, music is learning

something new. You and I are doing an old song which I did not know but

now I love it. It is a brand-new friend. It is Everything Happens To

Me. It is a wistful song and about someone who is kind of happiness. I

love the song but I did not know it. That is what I love about music.

Also, I do not think people have heard you in this zone before which

is what I am looking forward to. Thank you for the opportunity. Thank

you, Guy Garvey. We will be with you in the second. By the way, if you

want to know how I got here, after this there is a programme all about

me, so it is my night on BBC Two. Now we enjoy a wonderful band from

Leeds. Eagulls! # As long as you gonna sex for me.

# Behind my AWKWARD smile. # I've never listened, I've never

listened your type. # Stop singing that verse, stop

feelings like that. # Stop singing that song.

# You stand on this, you stand till this world dies.

# Can't find my head. # No music, no sex, no immediate out

just for my health. # I'm still nervous, I'm still

nervous, I'm drunk. # This cold feeling, nervous, my

feelings spread out. # I feel like that.

# Still nerve endings. # Still nerve endings won't die.

# Come find that out. # Come find that out.

# No-one, nowhere. # Nowhere, no-one.

# Come find that out. # Nowhere, nowhere.

# Come find that out. # Nowhere, nowhere.

# Come find that out. # I could never have a problem with

a feeling. # All behind, just like that.

# I'm still lonely, I'm still lonely in my head.

# I'm still feeling nervous, these feelings go worse.

# I stay trying. # My nerve endings.

# My nerve endings won't die. # Come find that out.

# No-one, nowhere. # Nowhere, no-one.

# Come find that out. # No-one, nowhere.

# Nowhere, no-one. # Come find that out.

?NEWLINE # I'm still lonely, I'm still lonely in my head.

# I'm still feeling nervous, these feelings go worse.

# I stay trying. # My nerve endings.

# My nerve endings won't die. # Come find that out.

# Come find that out. # I make a date for golf, and you

can bet your life it rains. # I try to give a party, and the guy

upstairs complains. # I guess I'll go through life, just

catching colds and missing trains. # Everything happens to me.

# I never miss a thing. I've had the measles and the mumps.

# And every time I play an ace, my partner always trumps.

# I guess I'm just a fool, who never looks before he jumps.

# Everything happens to me. # At first, my heart thought you

could break this jinx for me. # That love would turn the trick to

end despair. # But now I just can't fool this

head that thinks for me. # I've mortgaged all my castles in

the air. # I've telegraphed and phoned and

sent an air mail special too. # Your answer was goodbye and there

was even postage due. # I fell in love just once, and then

it had to be with you. # Everything happens to me.

CHEERING Everything happens to me. -- Everything Happens To Me, Guy

Garvey as you have never seen him before. Before that, we enjoyed

Eagulls. And now, it is Mozart's string Quartet number 21 and

featuring the voice of Love Ssegga, it is Clean Bandit!

# I don't know, skip a beat. # I don't know, skip a beat.

# I don't know, skip a beat. # I don't know, skip a beat.

# Find myself on stage but I hate to speak.

# I said I don't know, skip a beat. # It's my right to dance without two

left feet. # I said I don't know, skip a beat.

# Wanna be a social but I hate to creep.

# I said I don't know, skip a beat. # Scared of heights but I gotta

leap. # I said I don't know, skip a beat.

# Cos I'm leaping for the stars. # No clothes, I'm far from far.

# If I won't try, I won't go. # I'll never leave, I won't go.

# Can't believe it, I won't go. # No, not far.

# Move your left, move your right. # I kept it in my head and I kept

trying to fight. # I said, mm, move your left, move

your right. # Come a little closer if you like

the limelight. # I said, mm, move your left, move

your right. # I want to surround and keep your

here in my sight. # I said move your left, move your

right. # Getting abuse cos everyone's

taking all their time. # They chase and flex the beat, it's

on my mind. #Moves like that aren't cool, or

even crime. # Now they one-handed, won't land

it. # Won't stand it, rebranded.

# Here's a toucho, pizzicato. # Relax the tempo.

# Sips some movato. # And if I get too animato.

# Tan my face with that paggiato. # Aliente, mezzoforte, allegro or

andante. # I can make this voice, da-da-to,

one two, music for legato. # I don't know, skip a beat.

# We're rushing now, we're building heat.

# The doors are open, but the music's in time.

# Is this the place, the final round?

# Cruising at the speed where where consider.

# Watching the beat, we'll get to Vienna.

# Without a doubt, the strings are fine the bass is out.

# Give us a beat, you wrote this house.

# Couple of skip beats, a couple of movements, ow.

# Now we made it to Mozart's House. # Couple of skip beats, a couple of

movements, ow. # Couple of skip beats, a couple of

movements, ow. # Couple of skip beats, a couple of

movements, # Who's that gigolo on the street #

With his hands in his pockets and his crocodile feet # Hanging off the

curb, looking all disturbed # At the boys from home.

They all came running # They were making noise, manhandling toys #

That's the girls on the block with the nasty curls # Wearing padded

bras sucking beers through straws # Dropping down their drawers, where

did you get yours? # Gigolo, Huh, sukka?

# Gigolo. # Who's looking good today?

# Who's looking good in every way? # No style rookie.

# You better watch don't mess with me.

# No moneyman can win my love. # It's sweetness that I'm thinking

of. # We always hang in a Buffalo

Stance. # We do the dive every time we

dance. # I'll give you love baby not

romance. # I'll make a move nothing left to

chance. # So don't you get fresh with me.

# So, you say you wanted money but you know it's never funny, # When

your shoes worn through and there's a rumble in your tummy.

# But you had to have style get a gold tooth smile.

# Put a girl on the corner so you can make a pile.

# Committed a crime and went inside. # It was coming your way but you had

to survive. # When you lost your babe, you lost

the race. # Now you're looking at me to take

her place. # Who's looking good today?

# Who's looking good in every way? # No style rookie.

# You better watch don't mess with me.

# Looking good, hanging with the wild bunch.

# Looking good in a Buffalo Stance. # Looking good when it comes to the

crunch. # Looking good's a state of mind.

# State of mind don't look behind you.

# State of mind or you'll be dead. # State of mind may I remind you.

# wind in my hair, water from my eyes.

# No moneyman can win my love. # It's sweetness that I'm thinking

of. # We always hang in a Buffalo

Stance. # We do the dive every time we

dance. # I'll give you love baby not

romance. # I'll make a move nothing left to

chance. # So, don't you get fresh with me.

The wonderful Neneh Cherry. If you have been enjoying the show, I

wonder how much music you have watched on television and how long

you have been watching it off. BBC Two has been putting music on the

television for 50 years. Tomorrow night at 10:30pm you can see Pop

Goes BBC Two. Now back into the present. We are here with Elbow.

# I'm running out of miracles. # Oh my soul.

# And the streets are lined with one-man shows.

# Oh my soul. # Corner boys were moved along.

# Oh, my soul. # We're plummeting like crippled

crows. # Oh, my soul.

# Oh, long before. # You and I were born.

# Others beat these benches with their empty cups.

# To the night and the stars. # To be here, and now, and who we

are. # Another sunrise with my sad

captains. # With who I choose to lose my mind.

# And if it's all we only pass this way but once.

# What a perfect waste of time. # The BMX apothecary.

# Oh, my soul. # The architect of infamy.

# Oh, my soul. # For each and every train we

missed. # Oh, my soul.

# A bitter little Eucharist. # Oh, long before.

# You and I were born. # Others beat these benches with

their empty cups. # To the night and the stars.

# To be here, and now, and who we are.

# Another sunrise with my sad captains.

# With who I choose to lose my mind. # And if it's all we only come this

way but once. # What a perfect waste of time.

# Another sunrise with my sad captains.

# With who I choose to lose my mind. # And if it's all we only pass this

way but once. # What a perfect waste of time.

Thank you. Thank you, Elbow. What a lovely, epic poem that is. What a

way to end the show! If you have enjoyed this, you can go to the

website. We will be back on Tuesday. We will also, if you stay

tuned after this programme, you will find out how I did not get where I

am, I got here will stop how did I get here? There is a programme all

about me straight after this. Do you remember what we chatted about

earlier? Thanks. # Thank you to all our guests here.

Thank you to Elbow. Thank you to Agnes Obel. Thank you to Engelbert

Humperdinck. Thank you to Neneh Cherry. Thank you, Eagulls.
