11/08/1983 Top of the Pops

THEME MUSIC

Hi. Welcome to another exciting Top Of The Pops,

-and what a show we've got for you tonight.

-We certainly have.

In America, David Grant's Stop and Go is zooming up the charts.

Over here he's just outside the Top 30 with this record,

Watching You Watching Me, and watch him dance!

# It only blew my mind

# The second you came through that door

# The music and the lights

# Were blinded by your shine

# The heads went turning round

# At a girl that stood so proud

# I had to make my move

# To try and get to you

# All at once I took your hand

# Asked if I could have this dance

# True surprise when then you said to me

# I've been watching you watching me

# I've been liking you, baby, liking me

# So won't you take my hand and lead me on

# You really made it clear you're up for fun

# We rocked the night away

# And saw the sun breaking the day

# A shame we had to leave

# But home you had to go

# Work starting at nine

# And that was in three hours' time

# I could not stand to see

# My new friend leaving me

# Then all at once she took my hand

# Asked if I would be her man

# No surprise when then she said to me

# I've been watching you watching me

# I've been liking you, baby, liking me

# So won't you take my heart and lead me on

# Cos the way you're loving me is turning me on

# Never had a girl treat me like the way you do

# And the thing I understand

# Is the feeling feels so good

CHEERING

# I just want to take your hand

# Any fool can be in love

# Holding one another through the night

# I've been watching you watching me

# I've been liking you, baby, liking me

# So won't you take my heart and lead me on

# Cos you wanting me, baby, turns me on

# I've been watching you watching me

# I've been loving you, baby, loving me

# So won't you take my heart and lead me on

# Baby we got a lot of loving to be done

# I've been watching you watching me

# I've been loving you, baby, loving me

# Oh, baby, won't you take my heart and lead me on

# Cos the way you're loving me you're turning me on

# Watching you

# I've been watching you, girl

# I've been liking you, girl

# I've been watching you watching me

# I've been liking you, baby, liking me... #

APPLAUSE

See what I mean about that dancing?

That's David Grant, Watching You Watching Me.

Now the highest riser in the chart, the biggest new entry in the chart is this one.

It is The Style Council, from A Paris, this is Long Hot Summer.

CHEERING

# I played out my role

# I've even been out walking

# They tell me that it helps

# But I know when I'm beaten

# All those lonely films

# And all those lonely parties

# But now the feeling is off-screen

# An the tears for real, not acted any more

# I'm all mixed up inside

# I want to run but I can't hide

# And however much we try

# We can't escape the truth and the fact is

# Don't matter what I do

# Don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# Cos I end up hurting you

# One more covered sigh

# And one more glance you know means goodbye

# Can't you see that's why

# We're dashing ourselves against the rocks of a lifetime

# Don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# Cos I end up hurting you

# In my mind let the voices call

# What once was pleasure now is pain for us all

# In my heart only shadows fall

# I once stood proud now I feel so small

# Don't know whether to laugh or cry

# The long hot summer just passed me by

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# Shoo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-bop

# I want to run but I can't hide

# Don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# Cos I end up hurting

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do

# Cos I end up hurting

# It don't matter what I do

# It don't matter what I do... #

APPLAUSE

That was The Style Council

and you can hear them performing live on my show this Saturday.

Performing with us in the Top Of The Pops studio today,

it's Level 42, The Sun Goes Down.

CHEERING

# Though I live on the edge, time is on my side

# All the doors to my life are open wide

# Just as long as the wheels keep on turning round

# I will live for the groove till the sun goes down

# Living it up, living it up

# I can feel it

-# Living it up

-Is it a crazy notion?

# Living it up, living it up

# I can feel it

-# Living it up

-I got forward motion

# I don't wanna go to war I don't wanna go to war

# I said I know what I want and I don't wanna go war

# Do you follow me?

# I saw a soldier standing in a bar

# Looked so tired he'd come so far

# He said, "I need to love someone

# "Before they drop the atom bomb"

# There's a girl at the back making eyes at me

# And her hair long and black is a sight to see

# But I get kind of scared when love's around

# I just live for the groove till the sun goes down

# Living it up, living it up

# I can feel it

-# Living it up

-Is it a false emotion?

# Living it up, living it up

# I can feel it

-# Living it up

-I got forward motion

# So I'm a-taking you out but I'm a-faking

# I'm married to the beat

# To the music I gave the heart I could have given you

# Still there's something about the way that you move

# And the way that people stare it's the shock of the new

# I want my friends to see me standing next to you

# The sun goes down

# Living it up, living it up

# I can feel it

-# Living it up

-I got forward motion

# Ooh, watch her dance

# There must be one like her in every club in every town

# But I don't mind that's the way she wants to be

# There's something about her that reminds me of me

# She's my soul mate, we'll be together till the sun goes down

# The sun goes down

# Living it up, living it up

# I can feel it

-# Living it up

-Is it a false emotion? #

APPLAUSE

# My love is in league with the freeway

# Its passion will ride, as the cities fly by

# And the tail-lights dissolve in the coming of night

# And the questions in thousands take flight

# My love is a-miles in the waiting

# The eyes that just stare and the glance at the clock

# And the secret that burns and the pain that grows dark

# And it's you once again

-# Leading me on

-Leading me on

# Leading me down the road

-# Driving me on

-Driving me on

# Driving me down the road

# My love is exceeding the limit

# Red-eyed and fevered with the hum of the miles

# Distance and longing, my thoughts do collide

# Should I rest for a while at the side?

# Your love is cradled in knowing

# Eyes in the mirror, still expecting they'll come

# Sensing too well when the journey is done

# There is no turning back, no

# There is no turning back, on the run... #
