08/06/1978 Top of the Pops

In the next few minutes, football won't be mentioned,

so welcome to Top Of The Goals...er, Pops.

# I got chills, they're multiplying

# And I'm losing control

# Cos the power you're supplying

# It's electrifying!

# You better shape up

# Cos I need a man

# And my heart is set on you

# Better shape up

# You better understand

# To my heart I must be true

# Nothing left Nothing left for me to do

# You're the one that I want

# Ooh, hoo, hoo, honey

# The one that I want

# Ooh, hoo, hoo, honey

# The one that I want

# Ooh, hoo, hoo

# The one I need... #

APPLAUSE

# Davy's on the road again

# Wearing different clothes again

# Davy's turning hand outs down

# To keep his pockets clean

# All his goods are sold again

# His world is good as gold again

# Says, if you see Jean, now ask her, please, to pity me

# Jean and I, we moved along

# Since the day down in the hollow

# When the mind went drifting on

# And the feet were soon to follow

# Davy's on the road again

# And wearing different clothes again

# Davy's turning hand outs down

# To keep his pockets clean

# Saying his goodbyes again

# The wheels are in his eyes again

# Says, if you see Jean, now ask her, please, to pity me

# Been down in the big town

# Going to set you back on your heels

# With a mouthful of memories

# And a load of stickers for your windshield

# Shut the door, cut the light

# Davy won't be home tonight

# You can wait till the dawn rolls in

# You won't see our Davy

# Again

# Davy's on the road again

# Again, again, again, again....

# Davy's on the road again

# Wearing different clothes again

# Davy's turning hand outs down

# To keep his pockets clean

# All his goods are sold again

# His world is good as gold again

# Says, if you seen Jean, now ask her, please, to pity me

# Jean and I, we've moved along

# Since the day down in the hollow

# When the mind went drifting on

# And the feet were soon to follow

# Davy's on the road again

# Wearing different clothes again. #

APPLAUSE

Fantastic.

Manfred Mann's Earth Band, of course,

and Davy's On The Road Again.

Before that, we had Olivia Newton-John and Travolta.

And this is David Soul. You thought it was something to do

with the onions you've been eating, but he reckons that it's

love that is showing in your eyes.

# It brings a cold shiver inside

# Each time I see you looking over your shoulder

# At passing shadows

# Of your days with him

# I've tried as much as any man can

# With all that it takes

# And though I know you try to hide it

# For both of our sakes

# All the same

# Every time you hear his name

# It sure brings out the love in your eyes

# Brings out the love in your eyes

# It sure brings out that misty-eyed look about you

# I don't know what his memory's got

# But it sure brings out the love in your eyes

# Brings out the love in your eyes

# It sure brings on the feeling there's still some place

# You'd much sooner be

# And that brings out a sadness in me

# It's like I'm back out in the rain

# You ought to put yourself in my shoes a moment

# The half of you that's with me

# Has to see

# I've got to stop to get the feeling

# You're woman to me

# I've almost got myself believing

# That you've shaken free

# Then as I do

# His name comes out, out of the blue

# And it sure brings out the love in your eyes

# The love in your eyes

# It sure brings out the misty-eyed look about you

# I don't know what his memory's got

# But it sure brings out the love in your eyes

# The love in your eyes

# It sure brings out the feeling there's still some place

# You'd much sooner be

# And that brings out a sadness in me

# I've tried as much as any man can

# Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do

# It sure brings out the love in your eyes

# Brings out the love in your eyes

# It sure brings out that misty-eyed look about you

# I don't know what his memory's got

# But it sure brings out the love in your eyes... #

APPLAUSE

David Soul and There's Love In Your Eyes.

There's been a lot of conversation about the lyrics of the next song.

I have the feeling it's something to do with the Common Market agricultural policy.

You listen for "the green pound."

Plastic Bertrand.

MUSIC: "Ca Plane Pour Moi" by Plastic Bertrand

# Wham! Bam! Mon chat Splash

# Git sur mon lit a bouffe sa langue en buvant

# Tout mon whisky quant a moi peu dormi, vide, brime

# J'ai du dormir dans la gouttiere ou j'ai eu un flash

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# En quatre couleurs

# Allez hop!

# Un matin une louloute est venue chez-moi

# Poupee de cellophane, cheveux chinois

# Un sparadrap, une gueule de bois

# A bu ma biere dans un grand verre en caoutchouc

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# Comme un indien dans son igloo

# Ca plane pour moi

# Ca plane pour moi

# Ca plane pour moi, moi, moi, moi, moi

# Ca plane pour moi

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# Ca plane pour moi

# Allez hop! La nana, quel panard! Quelle vibration

# De s'envoyer sur le paillasson Limee, ruinee, videe, comblee

# You are the king of the divan! Qu'elle me dit en passant

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# I am the king of the divan

# Ca plane pour moi

# Ca plane pour moi

# Ca plane pour moi, moi, moi, moi, moi

# Ca plane pour moi

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# Ca plane pour moi

# Allez hop!

# T'occupe, t'inquiete, touche pas ma planete

# It's not today

# Quel le ciel me tombera sur la tete et que la colle me manquera

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# Ca plane pour moi

# Allez hop! Ma nana s'est tiree

# S'est barree, enfin c'est marre a tout casse

# L'evier, le bar me laissant seul comme un grand connard

# Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!

# Le pied dans le plat

# Ca plane pour moi

# Ca plane pour moi

# Ca plane pour moi, moi, moi, moi, moi

# Ca plane pour moi... #

APPLAUSE

Legs & Company and Ca Plane Pour Moi.

Lindisfarne have got a fabulous record

called Run For Home.

# I've travelled the land with a guitar in my hand

# And an eye ever open for some fun

# I've made some mistakes

# Had my share of the breaks

# Seen the boys on the make and on the bum

# Run for home, run as fast as I can

# Whoa, oh, oh, running man

# Running for home

# Run for home

# Run as fast as I can

# Woh, oh, oh, running man

# Running for home

# I've seen all the frowns

# On the faces of the clowns

# And the downs that they take just to be free

# And I've seen all the girls

# In their pretty frocks and curls

# But they don't mean a lot to me

# Run for home, run as fast as I can

# Woh, oh, oh, running man

# Running for home

# I've been to the places

# In town where the faces

# Hang round just to stare at each other

# I've looned with them, screamed at them

# Behaved like a buffoon

# But I soon discovered

# Run for home, run as fast as I can

# Whoa, oh, oh, running man

# Running for home

# Run for home, run as fast as I can

# Woh, oh, oh, running man... #

APPLAUSE

Love it. It gets better and better. I think that's marvellous.

Lindisfarne and they're running for home.

And now, at number 23 in the charts,

the Rolling Stones are doing incredibly well, and furthermore,

they appear to be missing you, badly.

MUSIC: "Miss You" by The Rolling Stones

# I've been hanging out so long

# I've been sleeping all alone

# Lord, I miss you

# I've been hanging on the phone, I've been sleeping all alone

# I want to kiss you

# Sometimes...

# Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

# Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

# Oo-oo-oo-oo

# Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

# Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

# Oo-oo-oo-oo

# I've been howling in my sleep, you've been starring in my dreams

# I want to kiss you

# I've been waiting in the hall

# Waiting for your call

# And the phone rings

# Just some friends of mine who say

# What's the matter, man?

# We're coming round at 12 o'clock with some Puerto Rican girls

# That's just dying to meet you

# We're gonna bring a case of wine, you know

# We're gonna mess and fool around

# Like we used to

# And I say

# Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

# Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

# Ah, ah, ah, ah

# Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

# Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

# Ah, ah, ah, ah

# Baby, why you wait so long?

# Baby, why you wait so long?

# Come home. Come on, come home

# I've been walking Central Park

# Singing after dark

# People think I'm crazy

# Shuffling on my feet

# Shuffling through the street

# Chica-chica-chica-chica

# What's the matter with you, boy?

# Sometimes...

# Sometimes, I sing

# To myself

# Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo

# Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo

# Oo, oo, oo, oo

# Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo

# Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo

# Oo, oo, oo, oo... #

All right.

# Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah... #

APPLAUSE

The Rolling Stones, of course, and Miss You.

I think it'd be fair to say that this evening's programme

is one of fine musical contrasts, because from the Rolling Stones,

we go with the Beautiful Lover of Brotherhood Of Man.

# I can remember the night that we met

# Down in Rio

# It was a night full of stars and a thousand guitars

# We didn't speak in a language we knew

# We didn't know how to say I love you

# But in the morning we knew

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a beautiful lover

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a beautiful dream

# Yeah, yeah, yeah,

# I don't want any other

# We don't need words

# We don't need words, I'll always know what you mean

# Night after night we were dancing and kissing the night away

# It didn't matter that we were from two different lands

# I only knew it was heaven for me

# Being with you is where I wanna be

# Close to you, just holding hands

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a beautiful lover

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a beautiful dream

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't want any other

# We don't need words, I'll always know what you mean

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a beautiful lover

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a beautiful dream

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't want any other... #

APPLAUSE

I've been doing a lot of listening to the radio recently.

It beats working on it. The first time I heard this number, I didn't quite catch who it was by.

Then I heard the name,

and I'll never forget the name of this group. It...

Oh, Goldie!

Yes, got it.

And Making Up Again.

# You - you touch my hand and I sing

# You make me feel like a king

# That's when I tell you I love you

# But you

# You don't believe what you see

# You take your pain out on me

# That's when we say it's all over

# Making up again

# After breaking up again

# Telling all your friends

# We're back as one

# Taking off again

# We're never gonna learn

# Telling all your friends

# We're back as one

# You

# You light me up, I'm aflame

# I turn you on just the same

# That's when you tell me you need me

# But you

# You say that I done you wrong

# Making you wait for too long

# You say I don't really care

# Making up again

# After breaking up again

# Telling all your friends... #

APPLAUSE

Goldie, and of course they're making up again.

Maxine Nightingale's got a brand-new song out.

It's quite interesting, because there's this guy

who's bringing out the girl in her. Mm.

MUSIC: "(Bring Out) The Girl In Me" by Maxine Nightingale

# All of the guys I've dated

# Invite me home to play

# But I never let nobody

# Go all the way

# But, baby, never felt this way before

# I want to love you

# Oh, what can I say more?

# What can it be

# Makes my nature weak for you?

# For you

# Well, it must be the boy in you

# Bringing out the girl in me

# Yes, it must be the boy in you

# Bringing out the girl in me

# Oo, oo, oo

# I would have never let you

# In my younger days

# All of my life I have lived by old-fashioned ways

Oh, but baby, never felt this way before

# I want to love you

# Oh, what can I say more?

# What can it be

# Makes my nature weak for you?

# For you, for you

# Well, it must be the boy in you

# Bringing out the girl in me

# Yes, it must be the boy in you

# Bringing out the girl in me

# Woo-oo-oo-oo!

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, oo-oo-oo, whoa!

# A-ha, baby

# Never felt this way before

# I want to love you

# Oh, what can I say more?

# What can it be

# Makes my nature weak for you?

# For you

# It must be the boy in you

# Bringing out the girl in me... #

APPLAUSE

Marvellous. Full marks there.

And from full marks to Guy Marks and Loving You Has Made Me...

It's happened again!

From the Hotel Sheets in downtown Plunketville,

the American Broadcasting System presents the music of Johnny Pearson

and his loyal Plunketvillevanians. Oh, yes, here in the beautiful gold,

yellah, copper, steel, iron ballroom of the Hotel Sheets

in downtown Plunketville,

one-mile high, two-and-a-half blocks from the centre of old New Orleans,

overlooking the uptown section of downtown Pottstown.

Ah, there's gaiety, merriment and dancing in the Hotel Sheets nightly.

Now, to get things under way,

Johnny Pearson and his loyal banditos

play a medley of old standard favourites,

commencing with Your Red Scarf Matches Your Eyes,

Close Cover Before Striking,

Your Father Had the Shipfitter Blues,

and Loving You Has Made Me Bananas.

This beautiful picture and lovely lyric portrayed vocally

by Dickie Ryan.

# Oh, your red scarf matches your eyes

# You closed your cover before striking

# Father had the shipfitter blues

# Loving you has made me bananas

# Oh, your red scarf matches your eyes

# You closed your cover before striking

# Father had the shipfitter blues

# Loving you has made me bananas

# Oh, you burned your finger that evening

# While my back was turned

# Asked the waiter for iodine

# I dined all alone

# Your red scarf matches your eyes

# You closed your cover before striking

# Father had the shopfitter blues

# Loving you has made me bananas

# Oh, you burned your finger that evening

# While my back was turned

# I asked the waiter for iodine

# But I dined all alone

# Oh, your red scarf matches your eyes

# You closed your cover before striking

# Father had the shipfitter blues

# Loving you has made me bananas. #

APPLAUSE

I'm not sure I fully understand that, but anyway, Guy Marks

and Loving You Has Made Me Bananas.

On Top Of The Pops, we got AC/DC.

MUSIC: "Rock'n'Roll Damnation" by AC/DC

# They say that you play too loud

# But baby that's tough

# They say that you've got too much

# Can't get enough

# They tell you that you look a fool

# Oh, baby, I'm a fool for you

# They say that your mind's diseased

# Shake your stuff

# And it's a rock'n'roll damnation

# Ma's own whipping boy

# Rock'n'roll damnation

# Take a chance while you still got the choice

# You say that you want respect

# Honey, for what?

# For everything that you've done for me

# Thanks a lot

# Get down on your bended knees

# You could set your mind at ease

# My temperature's running hot

# I've been waiting all night for a bite o' what you got

# It's a rock'n'roll damnation

# Ma's own whipping boy

# Rock'n'roll damnation

# Take a chance while you still got the choice

# Damnation

# They're putting you down

# Damnation

# All over town

# Damnation

# Cos you're way out of reach

# Livin' on the streets, you got to practice what you preach

# And it's a rock'n'roll damnation

# Ma's own whipping boy

# Rock'n'roll damnation

# Take your chance while you still got the choice... #

APPLAUSE

AC/DC and Rock'N'Roll Damnation.

It's number one time. Once again, they're still there,

Boney M and their "Rivers Of Baby Lotion(!)"

# By the rivers of Babylon

# There we sat down

# Yeah, we wept

# When we remembered Zion

# By the rivers of Babylon

# There we sat down

# Yeah, we wept

# When we remembered Zion

# There the wicked carried us away

# In captivity

# Required from us a song

# Now how shall we sing

# The Lord's song in a strange land?

# There the wicked

# Carried us away in captivity

# Requiring of us a song

# Now how shall we sing the Lord's song

# In a strange land...? #

THEY HUM

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

# Let the words of our mouths

# And the meditation of our hearts

# Be acceptable in thy sight

# Here tonight

# Let the words of our mouths

# And the meditation of our hearts

# Be acceptable in thy sight

# Here tonight

# By the rivers of Babylon

# There we sat down

# When we remembered Zion

# By the rivers of Babylon

# There we sat down

# Yeah, we wept

# When we remembered Zion... #

THEY HUM

# You've got to sing the song

# Yeah, we wept

# Sing a song of love

# When we remembered Zion

# By the rivers of Babylon... #

APPLAUSE

Number one time on Top Of The Pops, Rivers Of Babylon.

Always makes me think of a company, a bit like Walls Of Jericho.

Anyway, we'll go smurfing away. Bye.

MUSIC: "The Smurf Song" by Father Abraham

# Where are you all coming from?

# From Smurfland where we belong

# Are you talking just like us?

# No, we smurf, it's much less fuss

# Do you do things that we don't dare?

# We are real Smurfs so we don't care

# This is a song with a nice refrain

# Yes, we will sing it once again... #

The flute Smurf begins.

FLUTE SOLO

Yes, sing along.

# Can you crawl through a water tap?

# Yes, we smurf through a water tap

# And climb through a smoky hole?

# Yes, and through a smoky hole.

# Can you play a tune on the flute?

# Smurfing the flute we think so cute

# Do Smurfs like to dance and croon?

# Yes, but only to this tune.
