14/04/1983 Top of the Pops

Good evening and welcome to this week's edition of Top Of The Pops.

We've got a great show lined up for you tonight

and we start with our Eurovision song, I'm Never Giving Up.

This is Sweet Dreams.

# I don't believe in idle gossip

# The jealous mind can be unfair

# I hear them make their accusations

# But baby come what may

# No matter what the people say

# I'm never giving up

# Not giving in

# If there's the slightest chance that I could win

# The battle may be lost but I can win the war

# And get your loving back the way it was before

# At times it's hard to see the changes

# Or read the writing on the wall

# We may become the best of strangers

# But I'll keep holding on

# Until I know my chance has gone

# I'm never giving up

# Not giving in

# If there's the slightest chance that I could win

# The battle may be lost but I can win the war

# And get your loving back the way it was before

# Never giving up

# Never giving up

# Ah-ah-ah-ah

# I'm never giving up

# Not giving in

# If there's the slightest chance that I could win

# The battle may be lost but I can win the war

# And get your loving back the way it was

# I'm never giving up

# Not giving in

# If there's the slightest chance that I could win

# The battle may be lost but I can win the war

# And get your loving back the way it was before

# Never giving up

# I'm never giving up

# I'm never, never giving

# Never, never giving

# Never giving up. #

APPLAUSE

Sweet Dreams and we wish them well with that a week on Saturday

in the Eurovision Song Contest in Munich.

New entry in the chart at number 23 this week.

It comes from Eurythmics, it's re-issued,

it's called Love Is A Stranger.

# Love is a stranger in an open car

# To tempt you in and drive you far away

# Love is a stranger in an open car

# To tempt you in and drive you far away

# And I want you

# And I want you

# And I want you so

# It's an obsession

# And I want you

# And I want you

# And I want you so

# It's an obsession

# Love is a danger of a different kind

# To take you away

# And leave you far behind

# And love, love, love is a dangerous drug

# You have to receive it

# And you still can't get enough of the stuff

# It's savage and it's cruel

# And it shines like destruction

# Comes in like the flood

# And it seems like religion

# It's noble and it's brutal

# It distorts and deranges

# And it wrenches you up

# And you're left like a zombie

# And I want you

# And I want you

# And I want you so

# It's an obsession

# It's guilt edged

# Glamorous and sleek by design

# You know it's jealous by nature

# False and unkind

# It's hard and restrained

# And it's totally cool

# It touches and it teases

# As you stumble in the debris

# And I want you

# And I want you

# And I want you so

# It's an obsession. #

APPLAUSE

Our next band are currently working on a new album.

# Special effects by Loonatik and Drinks

# The graveyard scene

# The golden years

# She's in parties

# It's in the can

# She's in parties

# It's in the can

# Freeze frame screen kiss

# Hot heads under silent wigs

# Fall guys tumble on the cutting room floor

# Look-a-likes fall on the cutting room door

# She's in parties

# It's in the can

# She's in parties

# It's in the can

# Learning lines in the rain

On to a band who are making their debut on Top Of The Pops tonight.

They've got a great song called the The Last Film.

This is Kissing The Pink.

# In the last film I ever saw

# They wore suits and they wore ties

# In the last film I ever saw

# They kept the change and they told lies

# In the last film I ever saw

# Their words we're short and so sincere

# I thought of home my life was there

# It was the last film I ever saw

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# Their voice was sharp and oh so clear

# And while they talk and grow thin

# I thought of home my life was there

# It was the last film I ever saw

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# Telling me lies

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# Telling me lies

# In the last film I ever saw

# Their words we're short and so sincere

# I thought of home my life was there

# It was the last film I ever saw

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# Telling me lies

# And they're telling And they're telling me lies

# Telling me lies. #

# Let's dance

# To the song they're playing on the radio

# Let's sway

# While colour lights up your face

# Let's sway

# Sway through the crowd to an empty space

# If you say run, I'll run with you

# If you say hide, we'll hide

# Because my love for you would break my heart in two

# If you should fall into my arms

# And tremble like a flower

# Let's dance

# Let's dance

# For fear your grace should fall

# Let's dance

# For fear tonight is all

# Let's sway

# You could look into my eyes

# Let's sway

# Under the moonlight, this serious moonlight

# And if you say run, I'll run with you

# And if you say hide, we'll hide

# Because my love for you would break my heart in two

# If you should fall into my arms

# And tremble like a flower

# Let's dance

# Put on your red shoes and dance the blues... #

-Goodnight.

# And told me who you are

# I thought I was mistaken, I thought I heard your words

# Tell me how do I feel

# Tell me now, how do I feel

# Those who came before me lived through their vocations

# From the past until completion, they'll turn away no more

# And I still find it so hard to say what I need to say

# But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me

# Just how I should feel today

# I see a ship in the harbour

# I can and shall obey

# But if it wasn't for your misfortune

# I'd be a heavenly person today

# And I thought I was mistaken

# And I thought I heard you speak

# Tell me, how do I feel

# Tell me now, how should I feel

# Now I stand here waiting... #
