0:06:42 > 0:06:461977 certainly saw a lot of new names in the charts.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47None more outrageous than this,

0:06:47 > 0:06:50from the Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56MUSIC: "The Floral Dance" by Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band

0:09:32 > 0:09:34APPLAUSE

0:09:34 > 0:09:37OK, Noel, it's quiz time. I want to see if you can identify

0:09:37 > 0:09:41a certain somebody I'm thinking about who had a hit in July of '77.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45- Three names.- Carole Bayer Sager. - No.- Andy Fairweather Low?- No.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48- Value Added Tax?- OK, I'll give you a clue. Think of Emerson.- Emerson?

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Fittipaldi?

0:09:50 > 0:09:53It had to be, of course, Emerson, Lake and Palmer.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56MUSIC: "Fanfare for the Common Man" by Emerson, Lake & Palmer

0:12:12 > 0:12:14APPLAUSE

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Fanfare For The Common Man, that's Lake and company, of course.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Now, one of the names to emerge in '77 was Carol Bayer Sager,

0:12:20 > 0:12:22quite a big name really. She wrote this number.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25She's not just a talented singer, she's a very good composer.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27She wrote When I Need You for Leo Sayer.

0:12:37 > 0:12:41# When I need you

0:12:41 > 0:12:47# I just close my eyes and I'm with you

0:12:47 > 0:12:52# And all that I so want to give you

0:12:53 > 0:12:57# It's only a heartbeat away

0:12:59 > 0:13:02# When I need love

0:13:02 > 0:13:08# I hold out my hands and I touch love

0:13:08 > 0:13:14# I never knew there was so much love

0:13:15 > 0:13:19# Keeping me warm night and day

0:13:21 > 0:13:26# Miles and miles of empty space in between us

0:13:27 > 0:13:33# A telephone can't take the place of your smile

0:13:33 > 0:13:38# But you know I won't be travelling for ever

0:13:39 > 0:13:41# It's cold out

0:13:41 > 0:13:46# But hold out and do I like I do

0:14:08 > 0:14:12# It's not easy when the road is your driver

0:14:14 > 0:14:18# Honey that's a heavy load that we bear

0:14:20 > 0:14:25# But you know I won't be travelling a lifetime

0:14:25 > 0:14:28# It's cold out

0:14:28 > 0:14:32# But hold out and do like I do

0:14:32 > 0:14:34# Oh, I need you

0:14:56 > 0:15:00# When I need love

0:18:44 > 0:18:48looking back over the whole year, artists you've really not liked?

0:18:48 > 0:18:51Is there anyone who's really grated on you at all this year?

0:18:51 > 0:18:53You mean apart from Hot Chocolate?

0:18:53 > 0:18:54Oh, cr...

0:19:02 > 0:19:05# Da da da da

0:19:05 > 0:19:06# Da da da da

0:19:14 > 0:19:16# Da da da da

0:19:16 > 0:19:18# Da da da da

0:19:20 > 0:19:23# Just to admit one mistake

0:19:25 > 0:19:27# That can be hard to take

0:19:29 > 0:19:32# I know we've made them fall

0:19:33 > 0:19:37# But only fools come back for more

0:19:38 > 0:19:41# Being the fool I am

0:19:43 > 0:19:45# I figured in all your plans, darling

0:19:47 > 0:19:50# Your perfumed letters didn't say

0:19:51 > 0:19:55# That you'd be leaving any day

0:19:58 > 0:20:02# So you win again, you win again

0:20:02 > 0:20:07# Here I stand again, the loser

0:20:07 > 0:20:11# And just for fun you took my love and run

0:20:11 > 0:20:14# But love had just begun

0:20:14 > 0:20:16# I can't refuse her

0:20:16 > 0:20:20# But now I know that I'm the fool

0:20:20 > 0:20:25# Who won your love to lose it all

0:20:25 > 0:20:31# When you come back, you win again

0:20:31 > 0:20:32# Da da da da

0:20:32 > 0:20:34# Da da da da

0:20:34 > 0:20:36# Da da da da

0:20:38 > 0:20:42# And I'm not proud to say

0:20:42 > 0:20:46# I let love slip away

0:20:47 > 0:20:49# Now I'm the one who's crying

0:20:51 > 0:20:55# I'm a fool, there's no denying

0:20:57 > 0:20:59# When will my heartache end?

0:21:01 > 0:21:07# Will my whole life depend on fading memories?

0:21:09 > 0:21:13# You took the game this time with ease

0:21:16 > 0:21:19# So you win again, you win again

0:21:20 > 0:21:24# Here I stand again, the loser

0:21:26 > 0:21:29# And just for fun you took my love and run

0:21:29 > 0:21:32# But love had just begun

0:21:32 > 0:21:34# I can't refuse her

0:21:55 > 0:21:57APPLAUSE

0:21:59 > 0:22:02Hot Chocolate doing their thing.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04At the beginning of the year, a lot of people said,

0:22:04 > 0:22:07"Well, I mean, he's doing a hit show and whatever TV show,

0:22:07 > 0:22:09he's bound to have hit records."

0:22:09 > 0:22:11But he's really done it and held on. David Soul.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14# Don't give up on us, baby

0:22:14 > 0:22:19# Don't make the wrong seem right

0:22:19 > 0:22:23# The future isn't just for the night

0:22:23 > 0:22:27# It's written in the moonlight

0:22:27 > 0:22:31# And painted on the stars

0:22:31 > 0:22:34# We can't change ours

0:22:37 > 0:22:40# Don't give up on us, baby

0:22:40 > 0:22:45# We're still worth one more try

0:22:45 > 0:22:49# I know we put the last one by

0:22:49 > 0:22:53# Just for a rainy evening

0:22:55 > 0:22:59# When maybe stars are few

0:22:59 > 0:23:03# Don't give up on us, I know

0:23:03 > 0:23:07# We can still come through

0:23:09 > 0:23:12# I really lost my head last night

0:23:12 > 0:23:16# You've got a right to stop believing

0:23:18 > 0:23:24# There's still a little love left, even so

0:23:31 > 0:23:35# Don't give up on us, baby

0:23:35 > 0:23:39# Lord knows we've come this far

0:23:40 > 0:23:45# Can't we stay the way we are?

0:23:45 > 0:23:50# The angel and the dreamer

0:23:50 > 0:23:54# Who sometimes plays a fool

0:23:54 > 0:23:57# Don't give up on us, I know

0:23:57 > 0:24:04# We can still come through

0:24:18 > 0:24:22# It's written in the moonlight

0:24:22 > 0:24:25# And painted on the stars

0:24:25 > 0:24:29# We can't change ours

0:24:29 > 0:24:34# Don't give up on us, baby

0:24:34 > 0:24:39# We're still worth one more try

0:25:06 > 0:25:10# Don't give up on us, baby. #

0:25:13 > 0:25:16A chart show really would not be complete

0:25:18 > 0:25:21and this was number one in March, for Knowing Me, Knowing You.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41# This time we're through We're really through

0:27:41 > 0:27:45# Breaking up is never easy, I know But I have to go

0:27:45 > 0:27:49# I have to go this time I have to go, this time I know

0:27:49 > 0:27:50# Knowing me, knowing you

0:27:50 > 0:27:53# It's the best I can do. #

0:28:15 > 0:28:16APPLAUSE

0:28:18 > 0:28:22- What's that you've got there? - It's a Christmas card from the guys.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25"Christmas comes but once a year and it's always very exciting.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28"But Top of the Pops is always fun Especially when done by Crew 19."

0:28:28 > 0:28:30Aww. Isn't that lovely? Thank you, Crew 19.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50APPLAUSE

0:30:50 > 0:30:53There we go. Space, of course, and Magic Fly.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56Now, 1977 started off with this particular number one.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59I suppose you could call it the Christmas record of last year.

0:30:59 > 0:31:03Johnny Mathis and When A Child Is Born.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08# Ah ah ah ah

0:31:08 > 0:31:13# Ah ah-ah ah-ah

0:31:31 > 0:31:35# Ah ah-ah ah-ah

0:31:36 > 0:31:44# A ray of hope Flickers in the sky

0:31:44 > 0:31:52# A tiny star Lights up way up high

0:31:53 > 0:31:59# All across the land Dawns a brand new morn

0:31:59 > 0:32:03# This comes to pass

0:32:03 > 0:32:07# When a child is born

0:32:08 > 0:32:15# A silent wish Sails the seven seas

0:32:15 > 0:32:24# The winds of change Whisper in the trees

0:32:24 > 0:32:30# And the walls of doubt Crumble, tossed and torn

0:32:30 > 0:32:34# This comes to pass

0:32:34 > 0:32:38# When a child is born

0:32:38 > 0:32:46# A rosy hue Settles all around

0:32:46 > 0:32:54# You've got the feel You're on solid ground

0:32:54 > 0:33:01# For a spell or two No-one seems forlorn

0:33:01 > 0:33:05# This comes to pass

0:33:05 > 0:33:09# When a child is born... #

0:33:12 > 0:33:17And all of this happens because the world is waiting.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19Waiting for one child.

0:33:20 > 0:33:25Black, white, yellow - no-one knows.

0:33:25 > 0:33:29But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter,

0:33:29 > 0:33:32war to peace, hate to love,

0:33:32 > 0:33:35and everyone to everyone's neighbour.

0:33:35 > 0:33:39And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten.

0:33:39 > 0:33:42Forever.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45# It's all a dream

0:33:45 > 0:33:50# An illusion now

0:33:50 > 0:33:54# It must come true

0:33:54 > 0:33:57# Some time soon, somehow

0:33:59 > 0:34:05# All across the land Dawns a brand new morn

0:34:05 > 0:34:10# This comes to pass

0:34:10 > 0:34:13# When a child is born

0:34:13 > 0:34:17# Ah ah ah ah

0:34:28 > 0:34:30APPLAUSE

0:34:30 > 0:34:32The first number one of this year.

0:34:32 > 0:34:36On this very special day, Legs & Co have invited special friend along

0:34:36 > 0:34:40to help them move to the sounds of Stevie Wonder, and Sir Duke.

0:34:59 > 0:35:02# Music is a world within itself

0:35:02 > 0:35:06# With a language we all understand

0:35:07 > 0:35:10# With an equal opportunity

0:35:10 > 0:35:16# For all to sing, dance and clap their hands

0:35:16 > 0:35:18# But just because a record has a groove

0:35:18 > 0:35:20# Don't make it in the groove

0:35:20 > 0:35:23# But you can tell right away at letter A

0:35:23 > 0:35:26# When the people start to move

0:35:26 > 0:35:30# They can feel it all over

0:35:30 > 0:35:34# They can feel it all over, people

0:35:34 > 0:35:39# They can feel it all over

0:35:39 > 0:35:43They can feel it all over, people

0:36:01 > 0:36:04# Music knows it is and always will

0:36:04 > 0:36:08# Be one of the things that life just won't quit

0:36:09 > 0:36:13# But here are some of music's pioneers

0:36:13 > 0:36:18# That time will not allow us to forget

0:36:18 > 0:36:20# For there's Basie, Miller, Satchmo

0:36:20 > 0:36:22# And the king of all, Sir Duke

0:36:22 > 0:36:25# And with a voice like Ella's ringin' out

0:36:25 > 0:36:27# There's no way the band could lose

0:36:27 > 0:36:32# You can feel it all over

0:36:32 > 0:36:36# You can feel it all over, people

0:36:36 > 0:36:40# You can feel it all over

0:36:40 > 0:36:45# You can feel it all over, people

0:36:45 > 0:36:49# You can feel it all over

0:36:49 > 0:36:54# You can feel it all over, people

0:36:54 > 0:36:58# You can feel it all over... #

0:36:58 > 0:36:59APPLAUSE

0:36:59 > 0:37:02Stevie Wonder - what a great record that was.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04And Sir Duke. And coming up on the show...

0:37:04 > 0:37:06- Sorry!- What's up now?

0:37:06 > 0:37:07I've got a loose 'eel, here.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10Oh, talking of "loose 'eels", here's Kenny Rogers.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13I don't believe it. You couldn't stoop so low. Not SO low.

0:37:18 > 0:37:23# In a bar in Toledo Across from the depot

0:37:23 > 0:37:27# On a bar stool she took off her ring

0:37:28 > 0:37:33# I thought I'd get closer So I walked on over

0:37:33 > 0:37:37# I sat down and asked her name

0:37:39 > 0:37:43# When the drinks finally hit her She said I'm no quitter

0:37:43 > 0:37:49# But I finally quit livin' on dreams

0:37:49 > 0:37:54# I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after

0:37:54 > 0:38:00# I'm after whatever the other life brings

0:38:01 > 0:38:06# In the mirror I saw him I closely watched him

0:38:06 > 0:38:10# I thought how he looked out of place

0:38:12 > 0:38:16# He came to the woman who sat there beside me

0:38:16 > 0:38:20# He had a strange look on his face

0:38:22 > 0:38:27# His big hands were calloused He looked like a mountain

0:38:27 > 0:38:31# For a minute I thought I was dead

0:38:32 > 0:38:37# But he started shaking His big heart was breaking

0:38:37 > 0:38:42# And he turned to the woman and said

0:38:42 > 0:38:48# You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille

0:38:48 > 0:38:53# With four hungry children and a crop in the field

0:38:55 > 0:39:00# I've had some bad times Lived through some sad times

0:39:00 > 0:39:05# But this time your hurting won't heal

0:39:05 > 0:39:10# You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille

0:39:14 > 0:39:19# After he left us I ordered more whisky

0:39:19 > 0:39:23# I thought how she'd made him look small

0:39:24 > 0:39:29# From the lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room

0:39:29 > 0:39:33# We walked without talking at all

0:39:35 > 0:39:40# She was a beauty but when she came to me

0:39:40 > 0:39:44# She must have thought I'd lost my mind

0:39:45 > 0:39:51# Cos I couldn't hold her The words that he told her

0:39:51 > 0:39:54# Kept coming back time after time

0:39:56 > 0:40:00# You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille

0:40:01 > 0:40:07# With four hungry children and a crop in the field

0:40:09 > 0:40:14# I've had some bad times Lived through some sad times

0:40:14 > 0:40:18# But this time your hurting won't heal

0:40:19 > 0:40:23# You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille. #
