Hello admirers, and welcome to another Top Of The Pops
and it's great to be back on the programme.
Yes, it's going to be a real blisterer, this one.
We are live this week, we have loads of good music for you,
starting with this man,
Nick Heyward,
here is his Warning Sign.
# I'm coming home
# I've done my time
# I feel I lost my peace of mind
# Oh, with you in my life
# So intense
# Day and night
# I hope I can understand why
# Don't want your love
# I don't want your love
# Just trying to say
# And you can't help
# The way you're feeling
# Every time
# Feel the sign
# Hope you can understand why
# Hope you can understand
# Warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# Hey
# Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
# Like a warning sign
# Going through my mind
# Like a warning sign
# Hey
# Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
# I'd be a fool to let you go
# I'd be a fool to let you
# Leave me now
# Without a sound
# Cheated by love
# And mistreated by trust
# And God knows I understand why
# God knows I understand
# Warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# Hey
# Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
# Like a warning sign
# Going through my mind
# Like a warning sign
# Hey
# Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
# Warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# Hey
# Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
# Like a warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# Hey
# Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
# If you felt the way he felt
# I'm sure that you would be in a
# Real, er, dilemma
# I'm trying to speak in a kind of language
# That we all can understand
# Because he's feeling this way
# It's bad, it's bad
# Warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# Can you feel it?
# Like a warning sign
# Going through my mind
# Like a warning sign
# Can you feel it?
# Like it's hypocritical to be in a
# Society where no-one belongs
# Hey
# You see we're all speaking in different languages
# Some in the C and some in the B
# And some in the Z and some in your head
# Hey
# They're coming away with all kinds of directions
# Don't stop meaning well
# Put down for your sorrow
# Warning sign
# Going through my mind
# Like a warning sign
# Can you feel it?
# Warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# I know that, I know that
# Warning sign
# Didn't feel just right
# Like a warning sign
# I know that, know that
# See I'm chilling at the minute
# Because I've got this feeling and it's really getting to me now... #
A totally excellent song, Nick Heyward and Warning Sign.
He wrote the song, he also produced the record too.
We're going to send the singing waiters
back to the BBC canteen now
and leave you with Chicago, A Hard Habit To Break.
# I guess I thought
# You'd be here
# Forever
# Another illusion
# I chose to create
# You don't know what you got
# Until it's gone
# And I found out
# A little too late
# I was acting as if
# You were lucky to have me
# Doing you a favour
# I hardly knew you were there
# But then you were gone
# And it all was wrong
# Had no idea
# How much I cared
# Now being without you
# Takes a lot of getting used to
# Should learn to live with it
# But I don't want to
# Living without you
# It's all a big mistake
# Instead of getting easier
# It's the hardest thing to take
# I'm addicted to you, babe
# You're a hard habit to break
# You found someone else
# You had every reason
# You know I can't blame you
# For running to him
# Two people together
# But living alone
# I was spreading my love
# Too thin
# After all of these years
# I'm still trying to shake it
# Doing much better
# They say that it just takes time
# But deep in the night
# It's an endless fight
# I can't get you out of my mind
# Now being without you
# Takes a lot of getting used to
# Should learn to live with it
# But I don't want to
# Being without you
# Is all a big mistake
# Instead of getting any easier
# It's the hardest thing to take
# I'm addicted to you, babe
# You're a hard habit to break
# Being without you
# Takes a lot of getting used to
# Should learn to live with it
# But I don't want to
# Being without you
# Is all a big mistake
# Instead of getting any easier
# It's the hardest thing to take
# I'm addicted to you
# You're a hard You're a hard
# Habit to break
# Such a hard Such a hard
# Habit to break
# I'm addicted to you
# You're a hard... #
Well, now, that's a punchy little number, isn't it?
That's Chicago at number eight.
Now we bring on the Newcastle posse, The Kane Gang.
# If you disrespect
# Everybody that you run into
# How in the world do you think
# Anybody's supposed to respect you?
# If you don't give a damn
# About the man with the Bible in his hand
# Now
# Let's get out the way and let
# The gentleman do his thing
# You're the kind of person
# Who wants everything your way
# Yeah
# Take the sheet off your face, boy
# It's a brand-new day
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Hee hee hee hee
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Hee hee hee hee
# If you don't respect yourself
# Ain't nobody gonna give
# A good ca-hoot
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Hee hee hee hee
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Hee hee hee hee
# Dit doo doo doo doo doo doo
# If you're walkin' around thinkin'
# That the world owes you somethin'
# Cos you're here
# You're goin' out the world backwards
# Like you did when you
# First appeared
# Keep talkin' about the government
# Won't stop air pollution
# Yow
# Put your hand on your mouth when you cough
# That'll help the solution
# Well you cuss around women
# But you don't even know their name
# Then you're dumb enough to think
# It'll make you a big ol' man
# Yeah
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Hee hee hee hee
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na
# Respect yourself
# Hee hee hee hee
# If you don't respect yourself

# Na na na na na na
# Oh

# You want to give a hoot
# Respect yourself
# Na na na na na na

They are the Kane Gang.
That song of course was first made famous by The Staple Singers,
now it's their big hit, it's called Respect Yourself.
OK, this programme is so good, I want to eat it.
Let's get on a ship and see Louise.
# When he saw her getting off the bus
# It seemed to wipe away the years
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# Her face was older
# Just a little rough
# But her eyes were still so clear
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# He drank his coffee
# And he hurried out
# Across before she walked away
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# Then he approached her like a little child
# Too scared for what he had to say
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# "Hello, Louise
# "Remember me?
# "Now should we part
# "Or stay awhile
# "As if we were still lovers?"
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# She took a moment
# Just to recognise
# The man she'd known so well before
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# And as he started to apologise
# Lose any bitterness she bore
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# She gently put her finger on his lips
# To let him know she understood
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# And with her suitcase standing on the floor
# Embraced him like a lover would
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# He told Louise
# "You look so good
# "It's just, you see
# "You make me feel
# "As if we were still lovers."
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# It's not always true
# That time heals all wounds
# There are wounds that you don't wanna heal
# The memories of something really good
# Something truly real
# That you never found again
# As if we were still lovers
# And though they talked for just a little time
# Before she said she had to go
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
# That told him all he had to know
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# And so Louise
# Waved from the bus
# And as she left
# She gave that smile
# As if they were still lovers
# Ooh-ooh-ooh
# Ah-ah-ah-ah... #
That's the Human League and Louise, one of their best songs,
I think, even though I know you don't care what I think
but I thought I'd tell you anyway.
This is Billy Ocean, Caribbean Queen.
She's simply awesome...
# She dashed by me
# In painted on jeans
# And all heads turned
# Cos she was the queen
# In the blink of an eye
# I knew her number and her name
# Yeah
# And she said I was the tiger
# She wanted to tame
# Caribbean Queen
# Now we're sharing the same dream
# And our hearts they beat as one
# No more love on the run
# I lose my cool
# When she steps in the room
# And I get so excited
# Just from her perfume
# Electric eyes
# That you can't ignore
# And passion burns you
# Like never before
# Mm-hmm-hmm
# I was in search of a good time
# Just running my game
# Yeah
# Love was the furthest
# Furthest from my mind
# Yeah
# Caribbean Queen
# Now we're sharing the same dream
# And our hearts they beat as one
# No more love on the run
# I love you, I need you
# Caribbean Queen
# Now we're sharing the same dream
# Don't want to stop
# And our hearts they beat as one
# Ooh-ooh, yeah
# No more love on the run
# Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
# Caribbean Queen
# Now we're sharing the same dream
# And our hearts they beat as one
# No more love on the run
# Caribbean Queen
# Now we're sharing the same dream
# And our hearts they beat as one
# No more love on the run
# Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
# Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh... #
Excellent single, nice one, William.
That is Caribbean Queen, it's a hit all round the world.

One Night In Bangkok
And here is, live in the
Top Of The Pops studio tonight,
One Night In Bangkok.
# Bangkok, oriental setting
# But the city don't know what the city is getting
# The creme de la creme of the chess world
# In a show with everything
# But Yul Brynner
# Time flies, doesn't seem a minute
# Since the Tyrolean spa
# Had the chess boards in it
# All changed
# Don't you know that when you play at this level
# It's no ordinary venue
# It's Iceland
# It's er, Hastings
# Or this place!
# One night in Bangkok
# And the world's your oyster
# The bars are temples
# But their pearls ain't free
# You'll find a god
# In every golden cloister
# And if you're lucky
# Then the god's a she
# I can feel an angel
# Slidin' up to me
# One town's very like another
# When your head's down over your pieces, brother
# It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
# To be looking at the board not looking at the city
# What do ya mean?!
# You've seen one stinking, polluted town
# Tea girls, warm and sweet Sweet
# Some are set up
# In the Somerset Maugham suite
# Get Thai'd, you're talking to a tourist
# Whose every motive is among the purest
# I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
# One night in Bangkok
# Makes the hard man humble
# Not much between despair and ecstasy
# One night in Bangkok
# And the tough guys tumble
# Can't be too careful with your company
# I can feel the devil walking next to me
# Siam's gonna be the witness
# To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
# This grips me more than would a muddy old river
# Or reclining Buddha
# But thank God I'm only watching the game
# Controlling it
# I don't see you guys rating
# The kind of mate I'm contemplating
# I'd let you watch
# I would invite you
# But the queens we use would not excite you
# So, you better go back to your bars
# Your temples
# Your massage parlours
# One night in Bangkok
# And the world's your oyster
# The bars are temples
# But their pearls ain't free
# You'll find a god in every golden cloister
# A little flesh
# A little history
# I can feel an angel
# Slidin' up to me
# One night in Bangkok
# Makes the hard man humble
# Not much between despair and ecstasy
# One night in Bangkok
# And the tough guys tumble
# Can't be too careful with your company
# I can feel the devil walking next to me. #
