Welcome to Top Of The Pops.

APPLAUSE

# Well, the bride looked a picture in the gown that her mama wore

# When she was married herself nearly twenty-seven years before

# They had to change the style just a little but it looked just fine

# Stayed up all night, but they got it finished just in time

# Now on the arm of her daddy, she's a-walkin' down the aisle

# I see her catching my eye and give me a secret smile

# Maybe it's too old-fashioned but we once were close friends

# Oh, but the way she looks today, she never could have then

# Cos I can see her now in her tight blue jeans

# Pumping all her money in the record machine

# Spinning like a top, you shoulda seen her go

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# Now her proud daddy only wanna give his little girl the best

# So he put down a grand on a cosy little lovers' nest

# You could've called the reception an unqualified success

# At a flash hotel for a hundred and 50 guests

# Take a look at the bridegroom smiling, pleased as pie

# Shaking hands all around with a glassy look in his eye

# He got a real good job and his shirt and tie is nice

# But I remember a time when she would never even look at him twice

# Cos I can see her now, drinking with the boys

# Breaking their hearts like they were toys

# She used to do the pony, she used to do the stroll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I can see her now with her headphones on

# Jumping up and down to her favourite song

# I still remember when she used to wanna make a lot of noise

# Hoppin' and boppin' with the street corner boys

# She used to wanna party, she used to wanna go

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

# I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll. #

-APPLAUSE

-How about that! That got my feet tapping down here for a start.

A magic disc jockey here, one of the most colourful varieties.

Without turning round, who is that behind you?

-Brotherhood Of Man. Angelo!

-Angelo was a record.

He knows without even turning round.

# Long ago

# High on a mountain in Mexico

# Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo

# Who met a young girl and he loved her so

# Rich was she

# Came from a very high family

# Angelo knew it could never be

# They ran away to their destiny

# Running away together

# Running away for ever

# Angelo

# Running away from danger

# Hiding from every stranger

# Angelo

# They knew it wasn't wrong

# They found a love so strong

# They took their lives that night

# And in the morning light

# They found them on the sand

# They saw them lying there, hand-in-hand

Right, now then, this gentleman here

is the world famous, irresistible Dennis.

Never seen before. This here is The Stranglers

# Boogie!

# Woogie!

# The boys and the girls are all dancing around

# Dancing all night to the crazy sound

# It's the newest thing to hit this land

# The boys and the girls are holding hands

# I said, "Go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, go, go!"

# I'm with my friend Bob having a good time

# I got me some speed and I'm doing fine

# But Bob he's not dancing no sir-ee

# He's got a lazy eye on a little lady

# I said, "Go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, go, go!"

# I said, "Go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, go, go!"

# Elbow rooming his way around the floor

# You can see him he's waiting at the door

# All the chickies

# They want to see him dance some more

# Go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, go, go!

# I see we're changing partners but that's not for me

# I notice Bob is not joining the party

# He's standing on the outside looking in

# Wishing that little chickie was with him

# I said, "Go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, Buddy, go, go, go!"

# The party is over and we're all going home... #

It's a good night tonight, as it happens.

Right, now then, enough of such wild beatings and everything.

It's a cool-down just now.

Mr Johnny Nash himself with That Woman, over my right shoulder there.

# She knows what to do for me

# Whenever things get so blue for me

# She never fails to get through to me

# That woman means so much to me

# She reaches out the night for me

# And then she holds oh so tight to me

# She makes the mornings oh so bright for me

# That woman is oh so right for me

# Oh oh oh

# I'd lay right down

# And I'd die for her

# That's all

# That's all I've got to give

# Once I was down and worthless

# She gave me a reason to live

# Oh, she took the wild right out of me

# And made living worthwhile for me

# One day she'll walk down the aisle with me

# Some day she'll be giving a child to me

# Oh, that woman

# That woman

# That woman

# She's right for me

# In the night for me

# Oh, I love her

# I love her

# I love that woman

# Oh, yeah, yeah

# Oh, she's my woman

# She's my woman

# Oh oh oh yeah... #

# I'd like to stay in love with you

# All summer and after fall

# I'll keep you warm through the winter

# Because I've noticed one thing

# This ain't no summer fling

# I'd like to ride my bicycle with you

# On the handlebars

# You'd laugh and run away

# And I'd chase you through the meadow

# Without you I'd die

# Let's never say goodbye

# Oh, Lori

# You bring the spring, the summer, fall

# Ooo and winter

# All the seasons

-# Oh, Lori

-Oh, Lori

# You make me feel as though I've been born again

# Born again

# You danced for me in your bare feet

# That mellow afternoon

# When we made love to each other

# And I'm loving you

# That's all I want to do

# Oh, Lori

# You bring the spring the summer, fall

# Ooo and winter

# All the seasons

-# Oh, Lori

-Oh, Lori

# You make me feel as though I've been born again

# Born again

# Oh, Lori

# You bring the spring the summer, fall... #

We thought we'd get you some good looking lads.

That was Legs And Co there, of course.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Alessi Brothers record. Oh, Lori.

Who is that down there? Wowee! Just take a look at Paul Nicholas there.

# "Going up" she said Uh-huh

# Just as we had started to climb together

-#

-Ooh ooh

-Lookin' up I said,

# "Hey, look, maybe I could see you tonight?"

# And she said, "Never!"

# Well, thought I was out of luck

# But ten seconds later somehow we got stuck in that elevator

# Heaven on the seventh floor

# Heaven on the seventh floor

# Well, I've never been so high before

# So don't you rescue me

# Never set me free

# Hey, hey, hey

# "We're alone" I said Uh-huh

# Looks like we could be here all night

-# Together

-Ooh ooh

-# She said

-Uh-huh

# "You better have us out in five minutes time"

# Whatever

# "Please could you make it ten" I told the operator

# I'm havin' so much fun in this elevator

# Heaven on the seventh floor

# Heaven on the seventh floor

# I've never been so high before

# So don't you rescue me

# Never set me free

# Hey, hey

# I'm in heaven Ooh-ooh-ooh

# Heaven Ooh-ooh-ooh

# And as the Muzak played sooner or later I knew

# We'd fall in love in that elevator

-# Heaven on the seventh floor

-Heaven on the seventh floor

-# Heaven on the seventh floor

-Heaven on the seventh floor

# Well, I've never been so high before

# So don't you rescue me

# Never set me free

# Heaven's above!

# Woo! This must be love... #

Heaven On The Seventh Floor there, Paul Nicholas.

Look who we've got here, the one and only Peter Frampton

and back over here for a long time.

-Where have you been living?

-I've been in America, in New York.

That's his picture there, as it happens. What is number one?

Sock it to them.

It's The Jacksons, Show You The Way To Go.

That's the way it goes, my friend.

Might as well make him work over here.

-Thank you for coming.

-It's been very nice.

-Sorry to make you work so hard.

-That's all right.

-In so short a time.

-I'll try better next time.
