0:00:44 > 0:00:47I'm not doing very well. I'm aiming for 17.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49But what I thought I'd do was,

0:00:49 > 0:00:53rather than introduce Christmas Top Of The Pops from the studio,

0:00:53 > 0:00:55I thought that, really, the thing would be the office.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58But there's nobody here. It's all empty and lonely.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00And they really do make a mess.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03But it does give me one great opportunity.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06I can at least say the first number comes from...

0:04:01 > 0:04:03APPLAUSE

0:04:05 > 0:04:09Of course, Darts had three records that made Number 2 in 1978,

0:04:09 > 0:04:10a very successful band.

0:04:10 > 0:04:15If you ever bother to think about the number of records which are released in one year,

0:04:15 > 0:04:19obviously the Tops Of The Pops office is full of records, but have you thought about it?

0:04:19 > 0:04:24On average, some 70 records are released every week which makes, what, 3,500 a year.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27But can you guess, a Christmas game for you,

0:04:27 > 0:04:30how many records were actually bought in 1978?

0:04:30 > 0:04:34If you're good, I'll give you the answer at the end of the programme.

0:04:34 > 0:04:39If you're not good, I won't. But I can tell you that Boney M sold over 4 million copies of their records.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41And one of the biggest hits was called Rasputin.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52# There lived a certain man In Russia long ago

0:04:52 > 0:04:56# He was big and strong, In his eyes a flaming glow

0:04:56 > 0:05:00# Most people looked at him With terror and with fear

0:05:00 > 0:05:04# But to Moscow chicks He was such a lovely dear

0:05:04 > 0:05:08# He could preach The Bible like a preacher

0:05:08 > 0:05:11# Full of ecstasy and fire

0:05:11 > 0:05:16# But he also was The kind of teacher

0:05:16 > 0:05:19# Women would desire

0:05:19 > 0:05:21# Ra Ra Rasputin

0:05:21 > 0:05:24# Lover of the Russian queen

0:05:24 > 0:05:27# There was a cat that really was gone

0:05:27 > 0:05:29# Ra Ra Rasputin

0:05:29 > 0:05:31# Russia's greatest love machine

0:05:31 > 0:05:36# It was a shame how he carried o-o-o-n

0:05:39 > 0:05:41# But when his Drinking and lusting

0:05:41 > 0:05:43# And his hunger for power

0:05:43 > 0:05:46# Became known to more And more people

0:05:46 > 0:05:50# The demands to do something About this outrageous man

0:06:20 > 0:06:24# But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"

0:06:24 > 0:06:28# No doubt this Rasputin Had lots of hidden charms

0:06:28 > 0:06:32# Though he was a brute They just fell into his arms

0:06:32 > 0:06:36# Then, one night Some men of higher standing

0:36:21 > 0:36:24# Carried us away in captivity

0:36:24 > 0:36:28# Requiring of us a song

0:36:28 > 0:36:32# Now how shall we sing the Lord's song

0:36:32 > 0:36:36# In a strange land?

0:36:37 > 0:36:42# Mm-mm-mm-mmmm

0:36:42 > 0:36:46# Mm-mm-mm-mmmm

0:36:53 > 0:36:55# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

0:36:55 > 0:36:59# Let the words of our mouths

0:36:59 > 0:37:03# And the meditation of our hearts

0:37:03 > 0:37:07# Be acceptable in thy sight

0:37:07 > 0:37:11# Here tonight

0:37:11 > 0:37:15# Let the words of our mouths

0:37:15 > 0:37:20# And the meditation of our hearts

0:37:20 > 0:37:24# Be acceptable in thy sight

0:37:24 > 0:37:27# Here tonight

0:37:27 > 0:37:32# By the rivers of Babylon

0:37:32 > 0:37:35# There we sat down

0:37:36 > 0:37:39# Ye-eah we wept

0:37:40 > 0:37:43# When we remembered Zion

0:37:44 > 0:37:48# By the rivers of Babylon

0:37:48 > 0:37:52# There we sat down

0:37:52 > 0:37:56# Ye-eah we wept

0:37:56 > 0:38:00# When we remembered Zion

0:38:01 > 0:38:05# Ah-ahh-ahh-ahhhh

0:38:05 > 0:38:09# Ah-ahh-ahh-ahhhh

0:38:09 > 0:38:13# Ah-ahh-ahh-ahhhh

0:38:22 > 0:38:25# There we sat down

0:38:25 > 0:38:26APPLAUSE

0:38:26 > 0:38:29# Ye-eah, we wept... #

0:38:29 > 0:38:34And we've still got another one to come from Boney M.

0:38:34 > 0:38:38I think this one has to be my favourite chart sound of 1978.

0:38:38 > 0:38:42From the Commodores, Three Times A Lady, and here come Legs & Company.

0:38:44 > 0:38:49# Thanks for the times

0:38:49 > 0:38:54# That you've given me

0:38:54 > 0:39:01# The memories are all in my mind

0:39:03 > 0:39:08# And now that we've come

0:39:08 > 0:39:14# To the end of our rainbow

0:39:14 > 0:39:22# There's something I must say out loud

0:39:25 > 0:39:28# You're once

0:39:28 > 0:39:30# Twice

0:39:31 > 0:39:36# Three times a lady

0:39:36 > 0:39:43# And I love you

0:39:45 > 0:39:47# Yes, you're once

0:39:47 > 0:39:49# Twice

0:39:51 > 0:39:56# Three times a lady

0:39:56 > 0:40:04# And I love you

0:40:06 > 0:40:12# I love you

0:40:19 > 0:40:24# When we are together

0:40:24 > 0:40:28# The moments I cherish

0:40:28 > 0:40:36# With every beat of my heart

0:40:38 > 0:40:43# To touch you, to hold you

0:40:43 > 0:40:47# To feel you, to need you

0:40:47 > 0:41:00# There's nothing to keep us apart. #

0:41:05 > 0:41:08APPLAUSE

0:41:09 > 0:41:13The Commodores and Legs & Company and Three Times A Lady.

0:41:13 > 0:41:19And another great success. A number 1 for Abba and Take A Chance.

0:41:19 > 0:41:20# If you change your mind

0:41:20 > 0:41:23# I'm the first in line

0:41:23 > 0:41:25# Honey I'm still free

0:41:25 > 0:41:28# Take a chance on me

0:41:28 > 0:41:30# If you need me, let me know

0:41:30 > 0:41:32# Gonna be around

0:41:32 > 0:41:35# If you've got no place to go

0:41:35 > 0:41:38# If you're feeling down

0:41:38 > 0:41:40# If you're all alone

0:41:40 > 0:41:42# When the pretty birds have flown

0:41:42 > 0:41:45# Honey, I'm still free

0:41:45 > 0:41:47# Take a chance on me

0:41:47 > 0:41:51# Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie

0:41:51 > 0:41:56# If you put me to the test, if you let me try

0:41:56 > 0:41:58# Take a chance on me

0:41:58 > 0:42:00That's all I ask of you, honey

0:42:00 > 0:42:03# Take a chance on me

0:42:05 > 0:42:07# We can go dancing

0:42:07 > 0:42:10# We can go walking

0:42:10 > 0:42:13# As long as we're together

0:42:14 > 0:42:16# Listen to some music

0:42:16 > 0:42:18# Maybe just talking

0:42:18 > 0:42:21# Get to know you better

0:42:21 > 0:42:23# Cos you know I've got

0:42:23 > 0:42:26# So much that I wanna do

0:42:26 > 0:42:27# When I dream I'm alone with you

0:42:27 > 0:42:30# It's magic

0:42:30 > 0:42:32# You want me to leave it there

0:42:32 > 0:42:34# Afraid of a love affair

0:42:34 > 0:42:37# But I think you know

0:42:39 > 0:42:42# That I can't let go

0:42:42 > 0:42:46# If you change your mind I'm the first in line

0:43:19 > 0:43:21# Take a chance on me

0:43:21 > 0:43:24Come on, give me a break, will you?

0:43:24 > 0:43:27# Take a chance on me

0:43:28 > 0:43:31# Oh, you can take your time, baby

0:43:31 > 0:43:33# I'm in no hurry

0:43:33 > 0:43:35# Know I'm gonna get you

0:43:37 > 0:43:40# You don't wanna hurt me

0:43:40 > 0:43:42# Baby, don't worry

0:43:42 > 0:43:45# I ain't gonna let you

0:43:45 > 0:43:46# Let me tell you now

0:43:46 > 0:43:48# My love is strong enough

0:43:48 > 0:43:51# To last when things are rough

0:43:51 > 0:43:53# It's magic

0:43:53 > 0:43:55# You say that I waste my time

0:43:55 > 0:43:57# But I can't get you off my mind

0:43:57 > 0:44:00# No, I can't let go

0:44:02 > 0:44:05# Cos I love you so

0:44:05 > 0:44:07# If you change your mind

0:44:21 > 0:44:24# If you're feeling down... #

0:44:24 > 0:44:28Take A Chance. Abba enjoyed a three-week reign in 1978

0:44:28 > 0:44:31and you can enjoy Abba tonight on the Mike Yarwood Show.

0:44:31 > 0:44:34It starts at 8 o'clock and you mustn't miss it.

0:44:34 > 0:44:39And from a happy sound to one which I'm sure caused an awful lot of problems this year.

0:44:39 > 0:44:45Caused a few romantic depressions. Rose Royce and Love Don't Live Here Anymore.

0:44:58 > 0:45:01# You abandoned me

0:45:01 > 0:45:04# Love don't live here anymore

0:45:09 > 0:45:13# Just a vacancy

0:45:13 > 0:45:16# Love don't live here anymore

0:45:21 > 0:45:24# When you lived inside of me

0:45:24 > 0:45:27# There was nothing I could conceive

0:45:27 > 0:45:30# That you wouldn't do for me

0:45:32 > 0:45:35# Trouble seemed so far away

0:45:35 > 0:45:39# You changed that right away, baby

0:45:39 > 0:45:43# You abandoned me

0:45:43 > 0:45:46# Love don't live here anymore

0:45:51 > 0:45:54# Just a vacancy

0:45:54 > 0:45:58# Love don't live here anymore

0:46:13 > 0:46:16# Love don't live here any more

0:46:16 > 0:46:19# Just emptiness and memories

0:46:19 > 0:46:22# Of what we had before

0:46:25 > 0:46:27# You went away

0:46:27 > 0:46:30# Found another place to stay

0:46:30 > 0:46:32# Another home

0:46:32 > 0:46:34# You've abandoned me

0:46:34 > 0:46:38# Love don't live here anymore

0:46:43 > 0:46:46# Just look back and see

0:46:46 > 0:46:51# Love don't live here anymore

0:47:06 > 0:47:09# In the windmills of my eyes

0:47:09 > 0:47:11# Everyone can see

0:47:11 > 0:47:15# The loneliness inside me

0:47:17 > 0:47:19# Why'd ya have to go away?

0:47:19 > 0:47:22# Don't you know I miss you so

0:47:22 > 0:47:24# And need your love

0:47:24 > 0:47:26# You've abandoned me

0:47:26 > 0:47:30# Love don't live here anymore

0:47:35 > 0:47:37# Just a vacancy

0:47:37 > 0:47:42# Love don't live here anymore

0:47:46 > 0:47:50# You've abandoned me

0:47:50 > 0:47:53# Love don't live here anymore

0:47:58 > 0:48:01# Just a vacancy, babe

0:48:01 > 0:48:05# Love don't live here anymore

0:48:06 > 0:48:09# No, no, no

0:48:09 > 0:48:12# You've abandoned me

0:48:12 > 0:48:15# Love don't live here anymore. #

0:49:42 > 0:49:44# Feel your way

0:49:46 > 0:49:48# I'd better shape up

0:49:48 > 0:49:51# Cos you need a man I need a man

0:49:51 > 0:49:54# Who can keep me satisfied

0:50:45 > 0:50:49You're the One That I Want, the longest-running number 1 in 1978.

0:50:49 > 0:50:52But the most successful group in 1978 has to be Boney M.

0:50:52 > 0:50:56As I said earlier, over 4 million copies of their records sold.

0:50:56 > 0:50:59And here now, the current Christmas number 1.

0:50:59 > 0:51:02# Mary's boy child

0:51:02 > 0:51:04# Jesus Christ

0:51:04 > 0:51:08# Was born on Christmas Day

0:51:08 > 0:51:13# And man will live for evermore

0:51:13 > 0:51:18# Because of Christmas Day

0:51:27 > 0:51:31# Long time ago in Bethlehem

0:51:31 > 0:51:34# So the Holy Bible said

0:51:35 > 0:51:40# Mary's boy child Jesus Christ

0:51:40 > 0:51:45# Was born on Christmas Day

0:51:46 > 0:51:50# Hark now, hear the angels sing

0:51:50 > 0:51:54# A king was born today

0:51:54 > 0:51:59# And man will live for evermore

0:51:59 > 0:52:03# Because of Christmas Day

0:52:03 > 0:52:07# Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ

0:52:07 > 0:52:12# Was born on Christmas Day

0:52:12 > 0:52:15# While shepherds watched their flock by night

0:52:15 > 0:52:20# They see a bright new shining star

0:52:20 > 0:52:23# They hear a choir sing a song

0:52:23 > 0:52:28# The music seemed to come from afar

0:52:30 > 0:52:34# Hark now, hear the angels sing

0:52:34 > 0:52:39# A king was born today

0:52:39 > 0:52:43# And man will live for evermore

0:52:43 > 0:52:48# Because of Christmas Day

0:53:04 > 0:53:08# For a moment the world was aglow

0:53:08 > 0:53:10# All the bells rang out

0:53:10 > 0:53:11# There were tears

0:53:11 > 0:53:13# Of joy and laughter

0:53:13 > 0:53:16# People shouted, let ev'ryone know

0:53:16 > 0:53:20# There is hope for all to find peace

0:53:21 > 0:53:23# Oh, my Lord

0:53:23 > 0:53:26# You sent your son to save us

0:53:26 > 0:53:27# Oh, my Lord

0:53:27 > 0:53:30# Your very self you gave us

0:53:30 > 0:53:32# Oh, my Lord

0:53:32 > 0:53:34# That sin may not enslave us

0:53:34 > 0:53:38# And love may reign once more

0:53:39 > 0:53:40# Oh, my Lord

0:53:40 > 0:53:43# When in the crib they found him

0:53:43 > 0:53:45# Oh, my Lord

0:53:45 > 0:53:47# A golden halo crowned him

0:53:47 > 0:53:49# Oh, my Lord

0:53:49 > 0:53:51# They gathered all around him

0:53:51 > 0:53:55# To see him and adore

0:53:56 > 0:53:57# Oh, my Lord

0:53:57 > 0:54:00# They had begun to doubt you

0:54:00 > 0:54:02# Oh, my Lord

0:54:02 > 0:54:04# What did they know about you?

0:54:04 > 0:54:06# Oh, my Lord

0:54:06 > 0:54:08# But they were lost without you

0:54:08 > 0:54:11# They needed you so bad

0:54:11 > 0:54:12# They say we live forever

0:54:12 > 0:54:16- # Oh, my Lord - So praise the Lord... #

0:54:16 > 0:54:18APPLAUSE
