15/04/1982 Top of the Pops

From the Television Centre in Shepherd's Bush, London,

welcome to another live look and listen at what's best

in the British charts.

This is Top Of The Pops and to kick off this week, Spandau Ballet.

# Cheap bed, in the red

# Sleep the words out of your head

# Cold floor, nice and raw

# Eat the meat that's on the floor

# High tide, some disguise

# Loving makes the cream taste nice

# New shore, final score

# On fresh demand, I'm wanting more

# This might not last too long

# So always take it

# This might not last too long

# So take it

# Reasons, reasons were here from the start

# It's my instinction, it's my instinction

# Reasons, reasons were part of the art

# It's my instinction, it's my instinction

# You cry, justify

# But deep beneath the feelings lie

# Photo, looking old

# Memory makes the day feel cold

# They've gone, sing your song

# Walk the flow, ah, too slow

# Post boom, second doom

# Stealing cake to eat the moon

# This might not last too long

# So always take it

# This might not last too long

# So take it

# Reasons, reasons were here from the start

# It's my instinction, it's my instinction

# Reasons, reasons were part of the art

# It's my instinction, it's my instinction

# It's my instinction

# Hey

# Cheap bed, in the red

# You cry, justify

# Old school, second boom

# Stealing cake to eat the moon

# Reasons, reasons were here from the start

# It's my instinction, it's my instinction

# Reasons, reasons were part of the art

# It's my instinction, it's my instinction

# It's my instinction, oh

# Stealing cake to eat the moon. #

What an excellent way to start the programme,

Spandau Ballet and Instinction.

Well, tonight's programme is virtually all live

with this one exception - it's Roxy Music on video.

# I could feel at the time

# There was no way of knowing

# Fallen leaves in the night

# Who can say where they're blowing

# As free as the wind

# And hopefully learning

# Why the sea on the tide

# Has no way of turning

# More than this - there is nothing

# More than this - tell me one thing

# More than this - there is nothing

# It was fun for a while

# There was no way of knowing

# Like a dream in the night

# Who can say where we're going

# No care in the world

# Maybe I'm learning

# Why the sea on the tide

# Has no way of turning

# More than this - there is nothing

# More than this - tell me one thing

# More than this - there is nothing

# More than this - nothing

# More than this

# More than this - nothing. #

There really is something for everybody

on this week's Top Of The Pops.

At number 15, up one place, this is Shakatak with Night Birds.

# Flying through the night

# Floating on the wind

# To the city lights

# Night birds

# With the love they bring

# Flying through the night

# Floating on the wind

# To the city lights

# Night birds

# With the love they bring

# Slowing they descend

# Through the darkened sky

# To the night again

# Night birds

# Kiss the day goodbye. #

One of the most popular bands on the jazz funk circuit, that's Shakatak.

It was November 1978 when Dollar had their first hit and since then

it's been a long, steady succession of hits,

and this is their latest, Give Me Back My Heart.

# Heart heart heart

# La la la la

# I feel so silly when I tell you

# I gave you all I had

# La la la

# Seems so empty

# When I say

# That I love you

# But now I can see

# You were not for me

# So give me back my heart

# That's all I have to live for

# Give me back my heart

# That's all I had to give you

# I know I'll never be in love

# No I'll never be in love

# Again

# There were so many times you whispered

# I miss you so I miss you so

# You always said you cared

# La la la

# I never knew that you could be

# So far away

# But now I can see you were not for me

# So give me back my heart

# That's all I have to live for

# Give me back my heart

# That's all I had to give you

# I know I'll never be in love

# No I'll never be in love again

# I love you

# Give me back my heart

# That's all I have to live for

# Give me back my heart

# That's all I had to give you

# Give me back my heart

# That's all I have to live for

# Give me back my heart

# That's all I had to give you. #

Well, I must say I'm extremely pleased to introduce this next act -

it's a band I've championed a lot on my radio show and here they are

making their Top Of The Pops debut, Simple Minds.

# Promised you a miracle

# Belief is a beauty thing

# Promises promises

# As golden days break wondering

# Chance as love takes a train

# Summer breeze and brilliant light

# Only love she sees

# He controls on love

# Love sails to a new life

# Promised you a miracle

# Belief is a beauty thing

# Promises promises

# As golden days break wondering

# Only love she sees

# He controls on love

# Life mirrors a cure

# Everything is possible

# With promises

# Everything is possible

# Oh, no

# I promised you a miracle

# Belief is a beauty thing

# Promises promises

# As golden days break wondering

# Chance reflects on them a while

# Love screams so quietly

# Slipping back on golden times

# Breathing with sweet memories

# Promised you a miracle

# Belief is a beauty thing

# Promises promises

# As golden days break wondering

# Only love she sees

# He controls on love

# Life mirrors a cure

# Everything is possible in the game of life

# Everything is possible

# Oh, no

# Chance lost pearls of great price

# Take care of family

# Only aches for love

# Love waits for fame

# In chance in chance they'll see

# I promised you a miracle

# Belief is a beauty thing

# Promises promises

# As golden days break wondering. #

# One step further and I would have been there

# Can't seem to get your attention no matter how I try

# I just want you to prefer me to the other guys

# So when you looked at me, you only turned away

# So I walked up beside you

# But I forgot all the things that I planned to say

# I don't know if I tried to

# I could have taken one step further

# And I would have been there

# You could have turned around

# And hit me and I wouldn't have cared

# All this time I didn't get anywhere

# I could have taken one step further

# And I would have been there

# Ain't got the courage to speak when you're sometimes near

# Well I can't seem to think of the things that a girl likes to hear

# But when I saw you again, you were all alone

# So I walked up beside you

# But I was too shy to even ask you home

# I don't know if I tried to

# I could have taken one step further

# And I would have been there

# You could have turned around

# And hit me and I wouldn't have cared

# All this time I didn't get anywhere

# I could have taken one step further

# And I would have been there

# If you read my letters or my telegrams

# You'd have got around to asking me just who I am

# Cos you know I'm going to get ya

# I'm going to get ya, I'm going to get ya

# One step further and I would have been there

# You could have turned around

# And hit me and I wouldn't have cared

# All this time I didn't get anywhere

# I could have taken one step further

# And I would have been...

# One step further and I would have been there

# You could have turned around

# And hit me and I wouldn't have cared

# All this time I didn't get anywhere

# One step further and I would have been there

# You could have turned around

# And hit me and I wouldn't have cared

# All this time I didn't get anywhere

# I could have taken one step further

# And I would have been...

# One step further and I would have been there

# To play a game with you is all she really wants to do

# It's easy with you

# See those eyes, see those lies

# Her aim is not to please, all she wants to do is tease

# So cute for you

# I'm feeling rather funny and I don't know who I am

# I'll forget for you

# Forget those eyes, forget those lies

# You don't care about

# You don't care about that she'll forget about

# She'll forget about

# See those eyes, see those lies

# Her head is full of nonsense but she says her heart is true

# Fool for you

# I'm feeling rather funny and I don't know who I am

# I'll forget for you

# Forget those eyes, forget those lies

# You don't care about

# You don't care about that she'll forget about

# She'll forget about

# Her aim is not to please, all she wants to do is tease

# So cute for you

# I'm feeling rather funny and I don't know who I am

# I'll forget for you

# Forget those eyes... #
