0:00:02 > 0:00:04Hi, I'm Tommy Vance and welcome once again to Top Of The Pops.
0:00:04 > 0:00:07It is my absolute promise that it really is going to be a good one.
0:00:07 > 0:00:11- Even my friend Anne-Marie agrees! - Yep, right.- OK, you do agree. OK,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14this is a glimpse of what we're going to have in the show.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Tonight, you can help Robert Palmer. He's Looking For Clues.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20And Madness prove to be no Embarrassment.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE
0:00:24 > 0:00:26And that all actually happens later.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28But first we're going to have a band for you.
0:00:28 > 0:00:32Now, this song originally came out in 1934, and I looked in the BBC library
0:00:32 > 0:00:36earlier today and there are well over 150 different versions of it.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40It went to number one in 1961 in this country for a band called The Marcels.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43I rather think Showaddywaddy are heading in that direction
0:00:43 > 0:00:45with their version of Blue Moon.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46# Bum-be-de-bum Bum-bum-bum
0:00:46 > 0:00:49# Bum-be-de-bum Dang-dang-dang-diggy

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Diggy-dong-ding-do
0:01:05 > 0:01:07# Blue moon
0:01:07 > 0:01:11# You saw me standing alone
0:01:11 > 0:01:15# Without a dream in my heart
0:01:15 > 0:01:16# Without a love of my own
0:01:16 > 0:01:18# Bum-be-de-bum Bum-bum-bum
0:01:18 > 0:01:20# Bum-be-de-bum Dang-dang-dang-diggy
0:01:20 > 0:01:21# Diggy-dong-ding-do
0:01:21 > 0:01:23# Blue moon
0:01:23 > 0:01:27# You knew just what I was there for
0:01:27 > 0:01:31# You heard me saying a prayer for
0:01:31 > 0:01:32# Someone I really could care for
0:01:32 > 0:01:35# Wah-wah-wah-wahh
0:01:35 > 0:01:43# And then there suddenly appeared before me
0:01:43 > 0:01:50# Someone my heart could never hope to hold
0:01:50 > 0:01:52# I heard somebody whisper
0:01:52 > 0:01:57# Please adore me
0:01:57 > 0:02:03# And when I looked the moon had turned to gold
0:02:03 > 0:02:05# Whoah-oh-ohh
0:02:05 > 0:02:07# Blue moon
0:02:07 > 0:02:11# Now I'm no longer alone
0:02:11 > 0:02:14# Without a dream in my heart
0:02:14 > 0:02:16# Without a love of my own
0:02:16 > 0:02:18# Bum-be-de-bum Bum-bum-bum
0:02:18 > 0:02:20# Bum-be-de-bum Dang-dang-dang-diggy
0:02:20 > 0:02:21# Diggy-dong-ding-do
0:02:21 > 0:02:23# Whoa
0:02:23 > 0:02:27# Oh-oh-oh-oh
0:02:27 > 0:02:32# Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
0:02:32 > 0:02:34# Bum-be-de-bum Bum-bum-bum
0:02:34 > 0:02:36# Bum-be-de-bum Dang-dang-dang-diggy
0:02:36 > 0:02:37# Diggy-dong-ding-do
0:02:37 > 0:02:39# Whoa
0:02:39 > 0:02:43# Oh-oh-oh-oh

0:02:54 > 0:02:59# Blue Mo-oo-on. #
0:02:59 > 0:03:02APPLAUSE
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Absolutely great band. If you ever get the chance to see them live, do so.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12They're magnificent entertainers.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Showaddywaddy there, and their new single called Blue Moon.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Now, every once in a while record companies put out a thing called a double A-side.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Here is the other side of The Earth Dies Screaming.
0:03:21 > 0:03:26It's called Dream A Lie and it is by UB40.
0:03:51 > 0:03:58# Why do I have to dream of you when I don't wanna dream a lie?
0:03:58 > 0:04:06# Why do I have to dream of you when I don't wanna dream a lie?
0:04:06 > 0:04:10# Never was a better time for trying to set the words to rhyme
0:04:10 > 0:04:12# Of when a golden love turns blue
0:04:12 > 0:04:14# And dreams of dreams that won't come true
0:04:14 > 0:04:21# Why do I have to dream of you when I don't wanna dream a lie?
0:04:21 > 0:04:22# Every night I call your name
0:04:22 > 0:04:24# We're still together just the same
0:04:24 > 0:04:26# The morning sun I raise my head
0:04:26 > 0:04:28# A lonely room, an empty bed
0:04:28 > 0:04:36# Why do I have to dream of you when I don't wanna dream a lie?
0:04:36 > 0:04:39# Always seems that way
0:04:39 > 0:04:44# Yes, it always seems that way
0:04:44 > 0:04:47# Always seems that way
0:04:47 > 0:04:51# Yes, it always seems that way
0:05:21 > 0:05:25# Never was a better time for trying to set the words to rhyme
0:05:25 > 0:05:27# Of when a golden love turns blue
0:05:27 > 0:05:29# And dreams of dreams that won't come true
0:05:29 > 0:05:30# Every night I call your name
0:05:30 > 0:05:32# We're still together just the same
0:05:32 > 0:05:34# The morning sun I raise my head
0:05:34 > 0:05:36# A lonely room, an empty bed
0:05:36 > 0:05:39# Always seems that way
0:05:39 > 0:05:43# Yes, it always seems that way
0:05:43 > 0:05:47# Always seems that way
0:05:47 > 0:05:50# Yes, it always seems that way
0:05:51 > 0:05:54# Always seems that way
0:05:54 > 0:05:58# Yes, it always seems that way
0:05:59 > 0:06:01# Always seems that way... #
0:06:01 > 0:06:03APPLAUSE
0:06:06 > 0:06:09And that's the other A-side of The Earth Dies Screaming.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12It's called Dream A Lie and it was by UB40.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13Now, they of course come from Birmingham.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Here are a couple of gentleman who come from the USA.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19To be precise, it is Philadelphia.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Daryl Hall and John Oates. Welcome.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24- Nice to see you both.- Yeah, how you doing?- Bit of a secret here,
0:06:24 > 0:06:27one of my all-time favourite records is She's Gone, which you wrote some years ago.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29- Oh, really?- Great record.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Let's talk a little bit about your history because you were
0:06:32 > 0:06:36involved with the Philadelphia Sound, weren't you, for quite some time?
0:06:36 > 0:06:39We started in Philadelphia in the mid '60s, late '60s, and did session work,
0:06:39 > 0:06:41and did everything we could do,
0:06:41 > 0:06:44and we moved to New York in, like, 1970 and kept on going.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Right, but you actually were involved in a lot of other people's hit records.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50You were just behind the scenes, weren't you?
0:06:50 > 0:06:53I don't even know which ones they were though. What they used to do is
0:06:53 > 0:06:57they used to give us chord charts and said, "OK, you're going to do an album this week,"
0:06:57 > 0:07:00and we didn't know who the album was for or whatever. So I don't even know what I played on.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- You just sort of lay the tracks down and that was that?- That was it.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07And then you decided to do your own thing, which you've done very successfully.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- And at the moment you've got Kiss Is On Your List. - That's right.- And a new album.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Uh-huh.- And you're flying where, I think?- We're going to Munich tomorrow.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- And then you go to Spain?- Then Spain and then to Oswego, New York.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21- Back home to record some more?- No, we're on the road actually. We're doing weekend gigs right now.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24We just decided, we had a few days off so we came here.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26I'm glad you took some time out to visit us.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I hope the kiss actually gets higher up on the list and becomes a real hit.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- Let's hope so.- Daryl Hall and John Oates, thank you very much indeed.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Here now is Mr Robert Palmer.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Or there now is Mr Robert Palmer and Looking For Clues.
0:07:51 > 0:07:56# It's crazy but I'm frightened by the sound of the telephone
0:07:56 > 0:07:58# Oh, yeah
0:07:58 > 0:08:02# I'm worried that the caller might have awful news
0:08:02 > 0:08:04# Oh, my
0:08:04 > 0:08:09# Who knows these days where on earth the money goes
0:08:09 > 0:08:11# Oh, yeah
0:08:11 > 0:08:16# No doubt we could put it to a better use
0:08:16 > 0:08:17# Oh, my
0:08:24 > 0:08:29# You keep insisting that nobody showed you how to keep relationships
0:08:29 > 0:08:31# Oh, yeah
0:08:31 > 0:08:36# Your daddy made a real good try
0:08:36 > 0:08:38# Oh, my
0:08:38 > 0:08:43# You said you knew all along we could work it out
0:08:43 > 0:08:45# Oh, yeah
0:08:45 > 0:08:48# Do you have to make a fuss every time we fly?
0:08:49 > 0:08:53# Ooh, I'm looking for clues
0:08:57 > 0:09:01# I'll have to make an effort now just to be serious
0:09:01 > 0:09:03# Oh, yeah
0:09:03 > 0:09:09# Nobody's gonna give you the benefit of the doubt
0:09:09 > 0:09:11# Oh, my
0:09:11 > 0:09:15# Every time I pick a paper up it's harder to believe the news
0:09:15 > 0:09:17# Oh, yeah
0:09:17 > 0:09:22# I'm gonna have to shake it up and twist and shout
0:09:22 > 0:09:24# Oh, my
0:09:30 > 0:09:35# You can't do nothing that you don't put your mind to
0:09:35 > 0:09:37# Oh, yeah
0:09:37 > 0:09:42# I suspected all along you were a dream come true
0:09:42 > 0:09:44# Oh, my
0:09:44 > 0:09:48# I'm never in the dark cos my heart keeps me well informed
0:09:48 > 0:09:50# Oh, yeah
0:09:50 > 0:09:54# I'm convinced that there's a way of getting through to you
0:09:55 > 0:09:59# Ooh, I'm looking for clues. #
0:10:26 > 0:10:29APPLAUSE
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Now that man was actually born in Batley, he was raised
0:10:34 > 0:10:37in Malta till he was nine. He used to sing in a band with Elkie Brooks.
0:10:37 > 0:10:38The band was called Vinegar Joe.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41But now he's a solo artist, as indeed he has been for some time.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45That, of course, was Robert Palmer and his single called Looking For Clues.
0:10:45 > 0:10:46I'm going to give you a clue now.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49This next guest of ours used to be in a band called The Move,
0:10:49 > 0:10:51but now he's a drummer with the ELO.
0:10:51 > 0:10:52Would you recognise Bev Bevan?
0:10:52 > 0:10:55I'm sure you would. Bev, welcome.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- Nice to see a lad from Birmingham on the programme.- Oh, thank you. Yes.
0:10:58 > 0:10:59Now, not only are you into music,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02which you have been for a long time, but you're also into books.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- In fact, I've got it here.- Yes. Thank you very much.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Yes, we had an easy year in 1980...
0:11:07 > 0:11:09That's not true, you did a lot of touring.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Well, it gave me time to write this, which is something I've been wanting to do for a long time.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17It's the type of book about a band which isn't just a straightforward picture book.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19It really is a history of how a band was created,
0:11:19 > 0:11:20the good times and the bad.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24Yeah, it goes right back through Move times and through ELO,
0:11:24 > 0:11:26and actually tells it like it really is.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29It doesn't just skate over the surface, it's in-depth.
0:11:29 > 0:11:34- In just one word, how really is it?- How is it? What, the book?- Yeah.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- And the life.- Great. I can't complain.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40I've had a long, long time in the business and I've been very lucky
0:11:40 > 0:11:43to go through all The Move and then through ELO and great success.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44Well, you look very healthy on it.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Now, this next song that's coming up is your song, so you introduce it.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51OK. This is our latest hit, folks. And it's called Don't Walk Away.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54And how could you? Indeed. From Legs And Company.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12# Why do I say
0:12:12 > 0:12:17# Don't walk away
0:12:17 > 0:12:20# You'll be the way you were before
0:12:20 > 0:12:24# When you don't want me any more
0:12:24 > 0:12:27# Don't turn around
0:12:27 > 0:12:30# Don't ever leave
0:12:31 > 0:12:35# A lonely room where empty days
0:12:35 > 0:12:40# Are gathering to meet me when you're gone
0:12:41 > 0:12:43# Gone
0:12:43 > 0:12:48# How in the world will I go on?
0:12:48 > 0:12:51# Don't walk away
0:12:53 > 0:12:55# All you gotta do is stay
0:12:55 > 0:12:59# Don't walk away
0:13:00 > 0:13:03# All you gotta do is stay
0:13:03 > 0:13:07# Don't walk away
0:13:09 > 0:13:11# Don't walk away
0:13:11 > 0:13:12# Don't walk away
0:13:12 > 0:13:14# Don't say goodbye
0:13:14 > 0:13:16# Don't say goodbye
0:13:16 > 0:13:18# Don't turn around
0:13:18 > 0:13:20# Don't turn around
0:13:20 > 0:13:22# Don't let it die
0:13:22 > 0:13:23# Don't let it die
0:13:23 > 0:13:25# When shadows fall
0:13:25 > 0:13:27# When shadows fall
0:13:27 > 0:13:29# When day is done
0:13:29 > 0:13:31# When day is done
0:13:31 > 0:13:33# All through the night
0:13:33 > 0:13:35# All through the night
0:13:35 > 0:13:37All of my life
0:13:37 > 0:13:39# All of my life
0:13:39 > 0:13:42# Don't walk away
0:13:48 > 0:13:51# Is it a dream?
0:13:51 > 0:13:54# When will it end?
0:13:55 > 0:14:03# When everything we've ever known has ended and I'm all alone
0:14:03 > 0:14:05# Where will I go?
0:14:06 > 0:14:08# Where will I be?
0:14:10 > 0:14:14# The feelings that I've never shown
0:14:14 > 0:14:18# Maybe I'll find the answer when you're gone
0:14:19 > 0:14:21# Gone
0:14:21 > 0:14:26# How in the world will I go on?
0:14:26 > 0:14:31# Don't walk away
0:14:31 > 0:14:34# All you gotta do is stay
0:14:34 > 0:14:38# Don't walk away
0:14:38 > 0:14:42# All you gotta do is stay
0:14:42 > 0:14:45# Don't walk away... #
0:14:45 > 0:14:47APPLAUSE
0:14:47 > 0:14:50And that, of course, was ELO, and it was danced to by Legs And Co,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52as if you didn't know.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55It was called Don't Walk Away. That's at 26 in the charts.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Let's see what's happening between 30 and number 21.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00One Man Woman is 30.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09Suddenly descend to 27.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Don't Walk Away.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Status Quo shed 11 places with What You're Proposing.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29APPLAUSE
0:15:29 > 0:15:31And that's what's happening in that aspect of the charts.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Now can I introduce you to, well, what I think are one
0:15:34 > 0:15:37of the hottest properties in the record business at the moment.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41With their first ever single, here come the Stray Cats and Runaway Boys.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09# Get kicked out for coming home at dawn
0:16:09 > 0:16:12# Mum and Dad cursed the day you were born
0:16:12 > 0:16:14# Throw your clothes into a duffle bag
0:16:14 > 0:16:17# Shoutin' as ya slam the door The home is a drag
0:16:17 > 0:16:20# Who can I turn to? Where can I stay?
0:16:20 > 0:16:22# I heard a place that's open all night and all day
0:16:22 > 0:16:25# There's a place you can go where the cops don't know
0:16:25 > 0:16:29# You can act real wild they don't treat you like a child
0:16:29 > 0:16:31# Runaway boys
