0:10:46 > 0:10:49# And then I couldn't take any more
0:10:49 > 0:10:52# It didn't change a thing, not any single thing
0:10:52 > 0:10:54# When someone tried to tell me for sure
0:10:54 > 0:10:57# I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream
0:10:57 > 0:11:00# I read a word or two about everything
0:11:00 > 0:11:03# I never knew the way that it ought to have been
0:11:03 > 0:11:06# They never told me a thing about it
0:11:06 > 0:11:09# I never did know a thing about it
0:11:09 > 0:11:12# And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- # They won't go away- Won't go away
0:11:15 > 0:11:18# And the times that I tried are the times that I find

0:11:21 > 0:11:26# But you make me feel so good
0:11:28 > 0:11:31# I woke up after four still lying on the floor
0:11:31 > 0:11:34# And waiting to be carried away
0:11:34 > 0:11:37# I woke up once again a little after ten
0:11:37 > 0:11:39# Will things be any better today?
0:11:39 > 0:11:42# It doesn't change, you see It only changes me
0:11:42 > 0:11:45# Well, someone tried to tell me I'm sure

0:14:09 > 0:14:12who are doing pretty well in the chart at the moment too.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15This week in the pop world has been somewhat overshadowed
0:14:15 > 0:14:17by the tragic news from New York of the death of John Lennon.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Later in the programme,
0:14:19 > 0:14:21we'll be giving our own particular tribute to John.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24But, as well as that, it's Christmas coming up soon

0:14:44 > 0:14:46I keep hearing rumours about you and your career
0:14:46 > 0:14:48and the fact that you're retiring.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- Yeah, that's right. Just some shows, that's all.- Really?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53So, you're still going to be making records?
