07/06/1984 Top of the Pops

Hello and welcome to another Top Of The Pops, another half hour in the

company of attractive young people wearing extraordinary trousers.

Not only that but everybody on the programme tonight is live.

Except, of course, for the DJs.

Yes, we're miming I'm afraid, and not awfully well.

We're going to start the programme with Spandau Ballet.

# Laying in the afterglow

# I only want to learn what you know

# But now you're leaving...

# How many hearts must you break?

# How many calls must I make?

# But now you're leaving...

# In this world

# All that I choose has come unbearable

# But love is in your touch

# Ooh, it's killing me so much

# Only when you leave

# I need to love you

# And when the action has all gone

# I'm just a little fool enough to need you

# Fool enough too long

# Only when you leave

# You'll leave in danger

# Oh, I'll make sure that you pay

# So give a little passion to a stranger

# And take this soul awa-a-a-ay

# I only want to make things last

# So how could this have gone so fast?

# And now you're leaving...

# How many times must I learn?

# It's only when you've gone that I burn

# And now you're leaving...

# In the end

# All that is left has come unbearable

# It's hard to change your mind

# So leave it all behind

# Only when you leave

# I need to love you

# And when the action has all gone

# I'm just a little fool enough to need you

# Fool enough too long

# Only when you leave

# You'll leave in danger

# Oh, I'll make sure that you pay

# So give a little passion to a stranger

# And take this soul away

# Laying in the afterglow

# I only want to learn what you know

# Ooh but now you're leaving

# How many hearts must you break?

# How many calls must I make?

# But now you're leaving

# In this world

# All that I choose has come unbearable

# But love is in your touch

# Oh, it's killing me so much

# Only when you leave

# I need to love you

# And when the action has all gone

# I'm just a little fool enough to need you

# Fool enough too long

# Only when you leave

# You'll leave in danger

# Oh I'll make sure that you pay

# So give a little passion to a stranger

# And take this soul awa-a-ay!

# Woh-oh-oh-oh

# No, no, no, no... #

Only When You Leave, that's Spandau Ballet,

number five in the charts and in your hearts.

Next, blinking modestly in the spotlight,

it's Howard Jones. Hit it, Howie.

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on for nothing

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on for nothing

# Under his nose was a dream come true

# Been there all the time and he almost knew

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on for nothing

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on for nothing

# Under his nose was a dream come true

# Been there all the time and he almost knew

# Thoughts of people in misfortune stopped him doing things well

# His duty was to use it

# Left his pearl in the shell

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on for nothing

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on

# And on and on and on and on

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on

# And on and on and on and on

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows

# And the tear flows on

# And on and on and on and on

# And the fear goes on

# Shadows... #

Just back from a successful tour of America, Howard Jones,

with his current British hit, that's Pearl In The Shell.

That's right and earlier on this evening my rhythm pal

and I were talking about the number of records which make

it into the charts now having come up through the clubs.

This one is a very good case in point.

This is Evelyn Thomas, High Energy.

# High energy

# Your love is lifting me-ah

# Hoh-oh-oh-oh

# High energy

# Your love is lifting me

# Lifting me high...

# It was only last week that we first met

# When I was a-walkin' down the street

# You came up from behind me and I knew

# That our eyes were gonna meet

# That's when I fell, into your arms

# Imagine my surprise

# I thought this only happened in fairy tales

# Love hit me right between the eye-eyes

# Oh yeah, high energy

# Your love is lifting me

# Woh-oh-woh-oh-oh

# High energy, yeah

# Your love is lifting me

# Lifting me

# Hiiiiiiiiiigh

# Hi-hiiiiiiiiigh

# When you call me on the phone

# You make my spirits rise

# I'm glad the others didn't last

# It's a blessing in disguise

# Every time you're touchin' me

# It gives me such a thrill

# When I look deep into your eyes

# My heart just can't keep still, oh no

# High energy

# Your love is lifting me

# Woh-woh-woh-woh-woh, high energy, woh yeah

# Your love is lifting me

# Lifting me high

# Yeah, yeah

# Mmm, so nice

# All of the gold within Fort Knox

# Couldn't buy this happiness

# With your love

# I don't need money

# I don't need success

# I became

# A victim of a sudden love attack yeah

# It happened in the blink of an eye

# And there's no holding back

# Oh high energy

# Your love is lifting me

# Wooooh-hooo-hooo-hoo high energy, high-yeah-yeah-eah

# Your love is lifting me

# Lifting me high, high... #

# To your soul

# To your soul

# Cry-y-y-y-y-y

# You leave in the morning with everything you own

# In a little black case

# Alone on a platform, the wind and the rain

# On a sad and lonely face

# Mother will never understand why you had to leave

# But the answers you seek will never be found at home

# The love that you need will never be found at home

# Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

# Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

# Pushed around and kicked around

# Always a lonely boy

# You were the one that they'd talk about around town

# As they put you down

# And as hard as they would try they'd hurt to make you cry

# But you never cried to them

# Just to your soul

# No, you never cried to them

# Just to your soul

# Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

# Crying to your soul

# Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

# Crying to your soul

# Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

# Cry-y-y-y-ing

# Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

# Cry-y-y-y-y-ing

# Cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry

# Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry. #

One of the graduates of night-time Radio 1,
