Kursaal Flyers - little does she know
This song was used later on by a cough mixture brand for its advert. We get a not unpleasant syrupy (ahem) pop song and they have some washing machines on stage, no doubt an inspiration for Vic Reeves many years later. The singer also has a quiff so big it interferes with the studio ceiling lights.
Dr Hook - if not you
Dr Hook wonders who is going to mend his pants, well its not me thats for sure. The director displays a burst of genius when the camera fixes on an electric guitar during the pedal steel guitar solo. Still all the same of course, strings and stuff.
Billy Ocean - stop me
Stop me if you heard it all before, oh please because i have.
Legs & Co (the show where they were officially named has been lost alas) are here to interpret Be Bop Deluxe’s “maid in heaven” through the medium of dance. Keen to win over bitter fans of Ruby Flipper the Legs have gone for the nearly naked look, oh and the usual dodgy dance.
Jimmy has an uncanny knack of collecting sailors when he is on TOTP.
Not my favourite Cliff song (not that i have many) but not a bad music video to be honest, for the time anyway, which looks like a bit BBC Sci-fi horror. Only sans cybernauts or daleks.
ABBA - money money money
Another ABBA anthem, we get an intriguing video full of meaningful looks and 70s frocks.
Elton John - sorry seems to be the hardest word
Well its a great song and he wears great specs.
Jimmy is surrounded by ladies, one of whom seems to be being goosed or nearly falling over anyway.
Chicago - if you leave me now
So Pussycat are no more, we got AOR city instead with the same MV used on an earlier show.
