21/01/1982 Top of the Pops

Hi there, David Jensen here,

welcoming you to another Top Of The Pops.

Mike Read can't be with us, but we do have an excellent line-up

and records for you to listen to, and watch as well.

And we're going to kick off with Gillan - Restless.

# Jimmy Jimmy in your red brick city

# Take a look around you

# Jimmy Jimmy ain't you got no pity

# That ain't the way I found you

# Just when things get settled down

# And the road is wide and endless

# That's when I start looking around

# And I start to feel so restless

# O-oh Yeah

# Jimmy Jimmy with a bag full of money

# Why don't you please remember

# Jimmy Jimmy now your life's so sunny

# How was it last December

# When you hid your pain and you smiled in the rain

# To give up was just senseless

# When the kids in the street see you dragging your feet

# Then we're starting to get restless

# When we helped one another and you were my brother

# You really were the greatest

# Now you're making hay but you look the other way

# Hey Jimmy, I'm getting restless

# Jimmy Jimmy feeling good, feeling pretty

# Take a look around you

# Jimmy Jimmy come on back to the city

# Back to where I found you

# When you hid your pain and you smiled in the rain

# To give up was just senseless

# When the kids in the street saw you dragging your feet

# Then we started to get restless

# When we helped one another and you were my brother

# You really were the greatest

# Now you're making hay You look the other way

# Hey Jimmy I'm getting restless

# O-oh yeah. #

Now we go to Flick Colby's Zoo, who are slightly spaced out

with the Electric Light Orchestra.

# Remember the good old 1980s

# When things were so uncomplicated

# I wish I could go back there again

# And everything could be the same

# I've got a ticket to the moon

# I'll be leaving here any day soon

# Yeah

# I've got a ticket to the moon

# But I'd rather see the sunrise

# In your eyes

# Got a ticket to the moon

# I'll be rising high above the earth so soon

# And the tears I cry might turn into the rain

# That gently falls upon your window

# You'll never know

-# Ticket to the moon

-Ticket to the moon

-# Ticket to the moon

-Ticket to the moon

-# Ticket to the moon

-Ticket to the moon

# Fly, fly through a troubled sky

# Up to a new world shining bright

# O-oh

# Flying high above

# Soaring madly through the mysteries that come

# Wondering sadly if the ways that led me here

# Could turn around and I would see you there

-# Standing there

-And I would see you there waiting

# Ticket to the moon

# Flight leaves here today from Satellite Two

# As the minutes go by what should I do

# I paid the fare

-# What more can I say

-What more can I say

-# It's just one way

-Only one way

-# Ticket to the moon

-Ticket to the moon

-# Ticket to the moon

-Ticket to the moon

-# Ticket to the moon

-Ticket to the moon. #

The music was ELO, the movement was Zoo.

And now, by way of a contrast here's something meaty, beat-y

and definitely bouncy. It's Meatloaf and Cher!

# Every night I grab some money And I go down to the bar

# I got my buddies and a beer I got a dream, I need a car

# You got me begging on my knees C'mon and throw the dog a bone

# A man, he doesn't live by Rock and roll and brew alone

# Baby, baby, rock and roll and brew Rock and roll and brew

# They don't mean a thing When I compare 'em next to you

# Rock and roll and brew Rock and roll and brew

# I know that you and I We got better things to do

# I don't know who you are What you do

# Where you go when you're not around

# I don't know anything about you, baby

# But you're everything I'm dreaming of

# I don't know who you are

# But you're a real dead ringer for love

# A real dead ringer for love

# Ever since I can remember You've been hanging round this joint

# You've been trying to look away But now you finally got the point

# I don't have to know your name And I won't tell you what to do

# But a girl, she doesn't live by only rock and roll and brew

# Baby, baby, baby, baby

-# Rock and roll and brew

-Rock and roll and brew

# They don't mean a thing When I compare 'em next to you

-# Rock and roll and brew

-Rock and roll and brew

# I know that you and I We got better things to do

# I don't know who you are What you do

# Where you go When you're not around

# I don't know anything about you, baby

# But you're everything I'm dreaming of

# I don't know who you are

# But you're a real dead ringer for love

# A real dead ringer for love. #

Meatloaf and Cher, and Dead Ringer For Love.

Now, celebrating the joys of country living, it's XTC.

# Hey, hey, the clouds are whey There's straw for the donkeys

# And the innocents can all sleep safely

# All sleep safely

# My, my Sun is pie

# There's fodder for the cannons

# And the guilty ones can all sleep safely

# All sleep safely

# And all the world is football-shaped

# It's just for me to kick in space

# And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste

# And I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to take this all in

# I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to taste the difference between a lemon and a lime

# Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime

# Hey, hey Night fights day

# There's food for the thinkers

# And the innocents can all live slowly

# All live slowly

# My, my The sky will cry

# Jewels for the thirsty

# And the guilty ones can all die slowly

# All die slowly

# And all the world is biscuit-shaped

# It's just for me to feed my face

# And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste

# And I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to take this all in

# I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to taste the difference between a lemon and a lime

# Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime

# And birds might fall from black skies

# Whoo-oo whoo

# And bullies might give you black eyes

# Whoo-oo whoo

# But to me they're very, very beautiful... #

England's glory.

# Beautiful... #

Striking beauty.

# And all the world is football-shaped

# It's just for me to kick in space

# And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste

# And I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to take this all in

# I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to tell the difference between the goods and crimes

# Dirt and treasure

# And there's one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to take this all in

# I've got one, two, three, four, five

# Senses working overtime

# Trying to taste the difference between a lemon and a lime

# Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime. #

A terrific tune from Andy Partridge,

that was XTC and Senses Working Overtime.

Here's another record that's destined for the top five,

from Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark.

# If Joan of Arc

# Had a heart

# Would she give it

# As a gift

# To such as me

# Who longs to see

# How a legend oughta be

# Had dreams to give

# Her heart away

# Like an orphan

# On the way

# She cared so much

# She offered up

# Her body to the grave. #

# Can't shout out to anyone

# Can't hide my love for none... #
