Status Quo, Rocking All Over The World on our New Year special.

Bee Gees live next.

# Here I lie in a lost and lonely part of town

# Held in time In a world of tears I slowly drown

# Goin' home I just can't take it all alone

# I really should be holding you

# Holding you, loving you Loving you-ou-ou-ou-ou!

# Tragedy!

# When the feeling's gone and you can't go on, it's tragedy!

# When the morning cries And you don't know why

# It's hard to bear With no-one to love you you're goin' nowhere

# Tragedy!

# When you lose control And you got no soul, it's tragedy!

# When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear

# With no-one to love you You're goin' nowhere

# Night and day there's a burning down inside of me

# Burning love With a yearning that won't let me be

# Down I go and I just can't take it all alone

# I really should be holding you

# Holding you, loving you Loving you-ou-ou-ou!

# Tragedy!

# When the feeling's gone and you can't go on, it's tragedy!

# When the morning cries And you don't know why It's hard to bear

# With no-one to love you You're goin' nowhere

# Tragedy!

# When you lose control And you got no soul, it's tragedy!

# When the morning cries And you don't know why

# It's hard to bear With no-one to love you You're goin' nowhere

Aah!

# Tragedy!

# When the feeling's gone And you can't go on, it's tragedy!

# When the morning cries And you don't know why

# It's hard to bear With no-one to love you You're going nowhere

# Tragedy!

# When you lose control And you got no soul, it's tragedy!

# When the morning cries And you don't know why

# It's hard to bear With no-one to love you You're going nowhere. #

Barry's up in the upper register, Maurice whips on a trilby,

and Robin has a stoat on his head, but we loved 'em.

Recently Roxy Music got back together for a tour.

They also recorded this new version of Love Is The Drug.

It's our New Year '70s special. Roxy Music!

# T'aint no big thing

# To wait for the bell to ring

# T'aint no big thing

# The toll of the bell

# Aggravated, spare for days

# I stroll downtown The red light place

# Jump up, bubble up What's in store?

# Love is the drug And I need to score

# Showing out, showing out Hit and run

# Boy meets girl Where the beat goes on

# Stitched up tight Can't shake free

# Love is the drug, got a hook in me

# Oh, oh, get that buzz

# Love is the drug I'm thinking of

# Oh, oh, can't you see?

# Love is the drug for me

# Oh, oh-oh, oh-ho

# Oh, oh-oh, oh-ho

# Late that night I park my car

# Stake my place in the singles bar

# Face to face, toe to toe

# Heart to heart as we hit the floor

# Lumber up and limbo down

# The locked embrace The stumble round

# I say go, she say yes

# Dim the lights You can guess the rest

# Oh, oh, get that buzz

# Love is the drug I'm thinking of

# Oh, oh, can't you see?

# Love is the drug, got a hook in me

# Oh, oh, get that buzz

# Love is the drug I'm thinking of

# Oh, oh, can't you see?

# Love is the drug for me

# Oh, oh

# Oh, oh

# Oh, oh-oh

# Oh, oh

# Oh, oh-oh

# Oh, oh

# Oh, oh-oh

# Oh-oh

# Oh, oh-oh, oh-ho

# Oh, oh-oh, oh-ho

# Love is

# Love is

# Love is the drug. #

Every artist performing a '70s classic as they are today.

Bryan let his hair go that day!

Voice in good form. Now, Donny.

# And they called it puppy love

# Oh, I guess they'll never know

# How a young heart really feels

# And why I love her so

# And they called it puppy love

# Just because we're in our teens

# Tell them all please tell them it isn't fair

# To take away my only dream

# O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh, I cry each night

# My tears for you

# My tears are all in vain

# I'll hope and I'll pray

# That maybe some day

# You'll be be back in my arms

# Once again

# Someone help me

# Help me, please

# Is the answer up above?

# How can I, how can I tell them

# This is not a puppy love?

# Someone help me, help me, please

# Is the answer up above?

# How can I, how can I tell them

# This is not a...

# Puppy love?

# Mm-mm, baby This is not a puppy love

# Yay-ay-ay-ay, yeah, yeah

# This is not a puppy love. #

Cool version of a naff song sung by the original artist Donny.

He still looks 23!

Boz Scaggs had many '70s hits.

Here's a rocking version of Lido Shuffle. Boz is live in Studio 4.

# Lido missed the boat that day He left the shack

# But that was all he missed

# And he ain't comin' back

# In a tombstone bar In a juke-joint car

# He made a stop

# Just long enough to grab a handle off the top

# Next stop Chi town Lido put the money down

# Let 'em roll

# One more chance Ain't nothing to it

# Just one for the road

The year 2002 on TOTP2. This is our '70s retro show.

Hits sung by the original artists, only available here.

Now, for breath freshener and Sting.

So, here's another song that's, er...

not so autobiographical.

Maybe it is, I don't know!

# Roxanne

# You don't have to put on the red light

# Those days are over

# You don't have to sell your body to the night

# Roxanne

# You don't have to wear that dress tonight

# Walk the streets for money

# You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

# Roxanne

# You don't have to put on the red light

# Roxanne

# You don't have to put on the red light

# I loved you since I knew you

# I wouldn't talk down to you

# Told you once I won't tell you again

# I won't share you with another boy

# You know my mind is made up

# So put away your make-up

# Told you once I won't tell you again

# It's a bad way

# Roxanne

# You don't have to put on the red light

# Roxanne

# You don't have to put on the red light

# I loved you since I knew you

# I wouldn't talk down to you

# Told you once I won't tell you again

# I won't share you with another boy

# You know my mind is made up

# So put away your make-up

# Told you once I won't tell you again

# This is a bad way

# Roxanne

# You don't have to put on the red light

# Roxanne

# You don't have to wear that dress tonight... #

On the trombone, Mr Clark Gayton.

Thank YOU, Sting.

Now, the remnants of Led Zeppelin - some of them are here.

All right.

Yeah!

# I went down to the crossroads And I tried to flag a ride

# I went down to the crossroads I tried to flag a ride

# But nobody seemed to know me Everybody passed me by

# You can roll, you can roll

# Till my senses bring you down

# You can roll, you can roll

# Till my senses bring you down

# Yeah, I'm standing at the crossroads I believe I'm sinking down

# Standing at the crossroads And I tried to flag a ride

# Ooh-ooh, standing at the crossroads I tried to flag a ride

# Nobody seemed to notice me Everybody passed me by

# Ooh, yeah!

# Standing at the crossroads Fell down on my knees

# Went down to the crossroads Fell down on my knees

# Hey, hey!

# I'm calling for mercy Some poor boy help me, please. #

CHEERING

# Yeah, yeah, yeah! #

Page and Plant, and Crossroads. Crinkly hair and guitar frenzy.

If you had a David Cassidy poster in the '70s, this is for you.

This is him now with Could It Be Forever?

# Could it be forever

# Or is my mind just rambling on?

# Well, I touched you once I kissed you once

# And now I feel like you're mine

# Well, I feel like you're mine And I see in your face

# I'm not wrong to have these feelings

# Well, I feel like you're mine I've never known a time before

# That's had so many meanings

# Could it be forever?

# Or am I just a-wastin' time?

# Well I don't think so Cos you let me know

# You make me feel like you're mine

# Well, I feel like you're mine And I can't remember when the feelings have been stronger

# And all I know is I can't let go I wanna be with you

# I wanna be with you Just a little while longer

# All my feelings come together

# All of me is here

# Never known when I've felt better

# Cos I know this won't disappear

# But...could it be forever

# Or is my mind just a-ramblin' on?

# Well, maybe it is, but if it is Then I'll be movin' on

# Well, I feel like you're mine And I see in your face

# I'm not wrong to have these feelings

# I feel like you're mine I've never known a time before

# That's had so many meanings

# Feel like you're mine Feel like you're mine Could it be forever?

# Feel like you're mine Feel like you're mine

# Could it be forever?

# All I know is I want you so

# Could it be forever?

# Feel like you're mine, feel!

# Could it be forever?

# All I know is I want you so

# Could it be forever?

# Feel like you're mine Feel like you're mine... #

CHEERING

Could It Be Forever? David Cassidy.

Here's the old silver fox, Michael McDonald on Later...

Jeremy Vine claps along,

none of the audience believing they're seeing a legendary Doobie.

Michael McDonald - What A Fool Believes.

# He came from somewhere back in her long ago

# The sentimental fool don't see

# Tryin' hard to recreate What had yet to be created

# Once in her life

# She musters a smile

# For his nostalgic tale

# Never coming near what he wanted to say

# Only to realise

# It never really was

# She had a place in his life

# He never made her think twice

# As he rises to her apology

# Anybody else would surely know

# He's watching her go

# But what a fool believes

# He sees

# No wise man has the power

# To reason away

# What seems

# To be

# Is always better than nothing

# Nothing at all

# Keeps sending him Somewhere back in her long ago

# Where he can still believe There's a place in her life

# Someday, somewhere

# She will return

# She had a place in his life

# He never made her think twice

# As he rises to her apology

# Anybody else would surely know

# He's watching her go

# But what a fool be...

# Oh-h-h-h, no. Yea-eah!

# Better than nothing

# Nothing at all

# What a fool believes I believe you're never going away. #

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Michael McDonald. Now a classic from Lionel - Three Times A Lady

on the '70s "Now And Then".

# Thanks for the times that you've given me

# The memories are all in my mind

# And now that we've come

# To the end of our rainbow

# There's something I must say out loud

# You're once, twice

# Three times a lady

# And I love you

# Yes, you're once, twice

# Three times a lady

# And I l-o-o-ove you

# I l-o-o-o-ove you

# When we are together

# The moments I cherish

# With every beat of my heart

# To touch you, to hold you

# To feel you, to need you

# There's nothing to keep us apa-a-a-a-rt

# You're once, twice

# Three times a lady

# And I l-o-o-ove you

# Yes, you're once, twice

# Three times a lady

# And I l-o-o-ove you-ou-ou-ou

# I l-o-o-o-ove you-ou. #

Yeah, Lionel Richie - Once, Twice, Three Times A Lady.

Rather than having a snake on stage,

Alice is wearing a snakeskin outfit.

# Well, we got no choice

# All you girls and boys

# Makin' all that noise

# Cos they found new toys

# Well, we can't salute you Can't find a flag

# If that don't suit you that's a drag

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

We're in the '70s with Alice Cooper.

I bet your dad used to ask why he was called Alice. Now we accept it!

School's out!

Now, Elton. Are you ready? All right, go!

# It's getting late Have you seen my mates?

# Tell me when the boys get here

# It's seven o'clock and I want to rock

# Want to get a belly full of beer

# My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys

# And my old lady, she don't care

# My sister looks cute in her braces and boots

# A handful of grease in her hair

# Oh, don't give us none of your aggravation

# I've had it with your discipline

# Saturday night's all right for fighting

# Get a little action in

# Get about as oiled as a diesel train

# Gonna set this dance alight

# Saturday night's the night I like

# Saturday night's all right, all right, all right

# Yeah, oh, yeah

# Well, you're packed pretty tight in here tonight

# And I'm looking for somebody to see me right

# I may use a little muscle to get what I need

# I may sink a little drink and shout out, "She's with me"

# A couple of the sounds that I really like

# Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike

# I'm a juvenile product of the working class

# Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass

# Oh

# You don't give us none of your aggravation

# Had it with your discipline

# Saturday night's all right for fightin'

# To get a little action in

# Get about as oiled as a diesel train

# Gonna set this dance alight

# Saturday night's the night I like

# Saturday night's all right, all right, all right

# Oh, oh, yeah

# Ooh, I'm havin' none of your aggravation

# Had it with your discipline

# You know Saturday night's all right for fightin'

# To get a little action in

# Get about as oiled as a diesel train

# Gonna set this dance alight

# Saturday night's the night I like

# You know that Saturday night's all right, all right, all right

# Oh, oh, yeah
