00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:29.920
boring objects. My website for this podcast is let Me

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:35.399
Boy to Sleep dot com. Although my Jasonnewland dot com

6
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:39.799
is still in operation, it's just a watered down version

7
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:47.399
with all the links to previous hypnosis stuff. And also,

8
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:54.079
if you'd like to become part of Jason Newland's Facebook group,

9
00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.759
I'm talking about myself and the third person there. My

10
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:02.240
Facebook group is called Jason Newlands Boying Group. I actually

11
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:06.519
like to join the groovy So what I thought i'd do?

12
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:11.040
What I thought to do? I sound very young today

13
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:17.840
for some reason, don't sound my actual age. I was

14
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:23.000
last night. I was going I think I was on

15
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:28.359
YouTube going through some of the YouTube. No, I think

16
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:32.640
it was Apple Music, and I was just going through

17
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:36.040
some of the music that I some of the songs

18
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:41.959
that I like, and I forget how many songs I

19
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.719
actually really like from the past. And sometimes I do

20
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:51.640
get asked that question. By the way, it's Vinnie in

21
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:57.840
the background, if you're wandering all that noises. I did

22
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.120
get asked what's my favorite song, it's my favorite album,

23
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:03.760
and off the top of my head, I seem to

24
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:10.319
come up with very similar question answers rather, but if

25
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:15.080
I have the information in front of me, like all

26
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:23.719
the different songs that I've been released, I've got more

27
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:29.280
of an opportunity to actually be reminded of some of

28
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:33.479
the songs that I'd forgotten about. So what I'm going

29
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:37.800
to do for this Monday's boring objects I'm going to

30
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:41.680
I'm just going to talk about some of my favorite

31
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:47.840
songs from the eighties. Now I'm probably gonna, yeah, I

32
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.560
would go maybe my favorite it might just be my

33
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:53.840
favorite songs from nineteen eighty because I don't know how

34
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:56.240
far I can go, because I'm going to look through

35
00:02:56.240 --> 00:03:02.080
the whole year, becau It's not just number one hits

36
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:04.879
that I would like. There's going to be songs that

37
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.560
maybe we're in the top ten, top twenty, top thirty,

38
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:11.759
that I might have really liked. So I don't want

39
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:16.240
to just find the number one hits from the UK,

40
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:20.719
you know, in nineteen eighty, because might gave and give

41
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:25.120
me maybe thirty songs, maybe twenty seven songs or whatever.

42
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:28.080
Because sometimes songs are there for more than one week,

43
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:33.840
aren't they? So yeah, so I thought, I just I'm

44
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:40.240
not on the website called official charts dot com. Now

45
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:44.520
I hope that this is only going to be in

46
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:52.120
the UK. It won't matter too much because there's a

47
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:56.000
crossover obviously. The means so many songs that I loved

48
00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:02.319
were from other countries. However, there's going to be I mean,

49
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:07.280
I know, sometimes old I hear a song and it

50
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:13.280
was a massive hit in America, absolutely huge hit. I

51
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:16.920
saw one the other day. It was something on YouTube

52
00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:19.360
ill I think there's this Morning. Actually it was really

53
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:22.920
random and it was like something the Corner or something,

54
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:24.920
and it was more with the Jackson five and apparently

55
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:29.720
it was a big hit in America. I never heard

56
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:35.519
the song before. So I'm just going to go through

57
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:39.399
nineteen eighty so the top charts in this is the

58
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:45.879
first twentieth of the first nineteen eighty Brass in Pockets,

59
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:51.439
the Pretenders. Yeah, okay, so I'm not gonna I'm just

60
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:53.720
going to go through a lot of these songs I'm

61
00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:58.680
not necessarily gonna remember. But then if I heard it,

62
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:02.079
i'd probably think, oh, but I'm not going to hear

63
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:07.399
it because I'm doing this. I can't play music, not

64
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:11.120
chart music. It'd be nice if I could, because I'd

65
00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:16.279
like to do a kind of like a weekly radio

66
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:20.279
show where I played music that I like, maybe even

67
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:23.920
did I like the idea maybe doing too one show

68
00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:28.800
the weekend, maybe on a sad day, where I talk

69
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:32.360
music I like, and then the Sunday show could be

70
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:37.399
a request show. But it doesn't seem to be any

71
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:41.160
way of doing that, like legally doing that without it

72
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:46.319
costing money, which is a shame because Spotify used to

73
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.160
allow that a few years back, and I did do

74
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:53.920
a few episodes where I could just do a mixture

75
00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:57.680
of this and play a song. So I'd like to

76
00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:00.560
talk about the song, what it meant to me, you know,

77
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:05.079
all that stuff, all that drivel, and then played a song.

78
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:10.319
So it's kind of yeah, So I'm looking at this

79
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:17.480
my girl from Madness, My girl do do my Girl?

80
00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:22.240
So it's my girl. I liked that. I liked everything

81
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:26.439
Madness did, so I don't remember that particular song off

82
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:29.879
the top of my head. But then here and before

83
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.720
I'm in the mood for Dancing, one of my favorite

84
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:39.079
songs that I never even think about. I mean in

85
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:42.680
the mood for all dancing. I actually dreamt about the

86
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:47.240
Nolan sisters last night. I dated one of them in

87
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:54.079
my dream. That is very strange if they random as well,

88
00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:00.879
so it's kind of I mean, number one was Brass

89
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:03.800
in Pocket of Pretenders. Number two is with You I'm

90
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:08.519
Born Again Billy Preston and Zirita. I probably know both

91
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:10.720
those songs, but I don't. I can't think what they

92
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:16.439
are so nineteen eighty it's kind of still similar songs

93
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:21.199
from nineteen seventies. It's kind of the crossover period, isn't it.

94
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:26.920
The music's starting to change, and then at the end

95
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:31.199
of the eighties a song the music changed again into

96
00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:39.560
being dominated in the UK by Stockach and Waterman with

97
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:44.959
Kylie Minogue and Jason Donna Vernond, Rick Cassley and Sanita

98
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:55.800
And yeah, some of the songs work actually, but I

99
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.279
just wasn't. It wasn't for me. Although I did like

100
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:05.120
Rick Cashley his voice, I didn't really like his songs

101
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.360
but the hits, but he did do when I Fall

102
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:15.560
in Love like the ballad. It's very good. I saw

103
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:22.519
him seeing alive, such a great singer. But you know, anyway,

104
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:26.600
I'm in the mood for dancing. I remember hearing that,

105
00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:34.360
why is my laptop vibrating? It is a laptop, isn't it.

106
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:45.399
It's weird. I remember being at a wedding, so I

107
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:48.440
guess it must have been nineteen eighty, so a wedd

108
00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:57.559
inside have been nine. And see to me, Irenba was

109
00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:01.720
like tiny, but I probably was tiny at nine, so yeah,

110
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:03.559
but for some reason, I thought it was a lot

111
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.440
earlier than that. So I'm in the mood for dancing

112
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:12.200
was being played and I was dancing, and then my

113
00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:15.840
stepmother had a headache or something, and she went home,

114
00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:22.080
and my dad took me and my three brothers. I

115
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:25.360
guess she must have gone. I don't know who the

116
00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:29.559
baby was with my little brother, but we all went

117
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:34.320
out into the sea, which is I think it was nighttime,

118
00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:38.519
and I do believe it's the first and only time

119
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:43.600
we ever went into the sea together. I just remember that,

120
00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:46.399
and it's the only first time I ever felt safe

121
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:49.399
in the sea because my dad was there. It's weird,

122
00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:56.360
isn't it. They're like, okay, I want to hold your hand. Dollar. No,

123
00:09:56.440 --> 00:10:03.600
I don't remember that one. I remember Dollar because they

124
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:05.639
were on the Rod Harris Show when I was on

125
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:10.679
the Rock Harry Show. But they had one a really

126
00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:15.519
big hit all Pink Floyd Another Brick in the Wall.

127
00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:20.639
I like that song, but I don't really remember it,

128
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:25.080
like when it came out. I kind of I thought

129
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.639
another I thought it was like from the seventies, that song,

130
00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:36.960
Oh a Nerther brick in the war, blah blah, tears

131
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.120
of a clown that beats. It's different for girls, Joe Jackson,

132
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:46.759
I have a dreamer adda. Yep. It's quite weird because

133
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:53.360
see this is a game kind of strange because this

134
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:58.639
is nineteen eighty. I thought Abba was pretty much over

135
00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:04.200
and done with, Bye Bye nineteen eighty, not overdue with.

136
00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:07.720
But they had like such a huge success in the seventies.

137
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:10.679
I didn't know they had any hits in the eighties,

138
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:15.600
but clearly did because I have a dreams brilliant they

139
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:21.279
picked at number two though, I have a dream. Yeah,

140
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:26.960
they did London calling the Clash, so this is where

141
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:30.600
the seventies clashed to see what I did that with

142
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:36.480
the eighties, so people like the Clash. Specials kind of

143
00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:39.519
carried on from the seventies to the eighties, so they

144
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:44.399
almost kind of created the eighties in a sort of

145
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:51.679
new way. And London cal In. I remember that one,

146
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:58.960
but Luke loved the clash London Calling and I forget

147
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:03.799
what the other one group, the Specials too Much, too Young,

148
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:09.759
too much, too young, too much, too young do something

149
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:18.200
like that. They did a really good song called ghost Town.

150
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:22.240
It's down, are living in a ghost town? All the

151
00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:29.480
things are down, something like that, And I actually went

152
00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:32.879
to lunch with him, the bloke from the Specials. He's

153
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:36.279
no longer with us, unfortunately, but I didn't know who

154
00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:41.519
he was. So there was this lady called Helen. She

155
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:44.240
was a BBC. She was I think she was self

156
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:46.919
improved at this point, but she was a producer and

157
00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:54.559
film producer and TV producer, producer, and I don't know why,

158
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:58.080
but we just built a friendship up. She'd started doing comedy.

159
00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:01.039
We met at a comedy gig and we just hit

160
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:07.000
it off. She was probably in her thirties. I was

161
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:13.960
it was like twenty and this is in the nineties

162
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:18.279
on a matter. I was probably like twenty two maybe

163
00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:24.799
and twenty three. And she used to take me out.

164
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.159
It wasn't a relationship, although I started have I think

165
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:29.720
I started to have a few feelings for her because

166
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:32.000
I spent so much time with her, but it wasn't

167
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:37.320
a relationship like romance. But she just liked spending time

168
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:40.799
with me, and she used to take me to theaters,

169
00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:47.399
take me to concerts, take me out for meals, and

170
00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:50.240
I kind of got a chance to see the other

171
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.759
side of life, you know, the side where there was

172
00:13:54.840 --> 00:14:00.200
no no penny, no penny counting, no or check what

173
00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:04.720
I can afford on the menu, and it felt quite nice.

174
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:12.799
And I do part of people was like I'd taken

175
00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:17.840
advantage of her, but I wasn't because I don't really

176
00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:21.000
care like that. In them days, I couldn't care if

177
00:14:21.039 --> 00:14:25.559
I was eating in a top class restaurant or in McDonald's.

178
00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:28.799
I really didn't care as long as I was able

179
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:33.799
to fill my tummy, that's really, you know, with something

180
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:40.679
tastally hopefully. But yeah, I think part of the reason

181
00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:44.679
it wasn't costing her money to go to a lot

182
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:47.480
of these concerts because she'd get tickets sent to her

183
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:51.360
because I wanted to give her to give reviews, and

184
00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:54.559
because she was a TV producer and she knew a

185
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:57.720
lot of people, and so she'd get a lot of

186
00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:05.279
comp tickets. Yeah, I went to one. I went to

187
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:07.600
a concert. I forget his name that he did. We

188
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:12.440
had one really big hit American guy with a like

189
00:15:12.519 --> 00:15:19.159
all his kind of style hair. Oh it was his name.

190
00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:23.279
I forget his name. Really really was super good looking

191
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:28.480
bloke and he it was a really good song as well,

192
00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:31.559
like the one that's one of those like really really

193
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.799
good songs in the nineties that was like a huge hit,

194
00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:39.799
and off the back of that he was able to

195
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:43.039
sell out concerts and stuff around the world. I guess,

196
00:15:45.039 --> 00:15:52.600
oh it was his name. Anyway, we went along, we

197
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:56.720
got bored and left because I only knew one song.

198
00:15:57.360 --> 00:16:03.039
I wasn't a fan of his, but we just couldn't

199
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:05.960
be bothered. It was full of there's a lot of

200
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:10.279
very young female screaming, and I was like, Okay, this

201
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:13.919
isn't really It was a little bit, I don't know,

202
00:16:14.080 --> 00:16:19.320
just felt a bit strange being there, and I didn't know.

203
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:21.799
If it had been someone that I knew, I could

204
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:26.720
have got super excited, probably, But but there's one point

205
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:32.080
when he gets on stage. Everyone's sitting in their chairs

206
00:16:32.720 --> 00:16:37.840
in their seats and it's a it's a I don't

207
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.440
know theater. There's probably a couple of thousand people in there,

208
00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:49.120
and he's standing there and everyone's clapping and or whatever,

209
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:54.679
and he starts talking to everyone, and you know, he

210
00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.919
looks great, sounds great, isn't I don't think he's actually

211
00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:04.279
started singing yet. And yeah, this surprised me. He said

212
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.680
to the audience, he said, you can come up. And

213
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:10.759
this totally true. I'm not making this up. He said,

214
00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:13.119
you can come up to the front if you want

215
00:17:13.240 --> 00:17:17.960
and scream. You can stand at the front and scream

216
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:21.960
if you want. So all these girls just started running

217
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:25.599
up and screaming. And I just thought it was quite weird.

218
00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:32.200
That almost need to instigate it yourself. But yeah, it was.

219
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:35.319
I don't know, it was funny, but we didn't. I

220
00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:36.759
don't know if it was that I didn't want to

221
00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:39.400
watch it or that she didn't want to watch it,

222
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:41.839
the lady I was with. But in the end we left.

223
00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:48.799
But I did go to a few like operas, and

224
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:54.039
I think and I also went to see Waiting for Godo,

225
00:17:54.240 --> 00:18:02.039
which had rigged Mail and A and Edmondson in and

226
00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:04.319
there was a huge way for it to start because

227
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:06.519
he hadn't turned up or he was like getting there.

228
00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:10.759
I think, Rick Malt, I'm pretty sure it's quite weird

229
00:18:10.799 --> 00:18:12.519
because it was waiting for God, wasn't it. So we

230
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:17.119
were waiting for Rick Mail. And I think it was

231
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:24.519
like half an hour forty minutes late starting, But everybody

232
00:18:24.559 --> 00:18:27.200
wanted to see Rick Malt because Rick Mault. If you

233
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:29.920
don't know who Rick Male is, or or Adrian Nippinson

234
00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:33.880
if you're not from the UK and you've not heard

235
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:39.079
of them, they were in a TV They were basically

236
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:46.960
heroes and comedy in this country. Their icons really they

237
00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:54.039
were in The Young Ones, which was a anarchic TV

238
00:18:54.119 --> 00:18:56.319
show in the eighties early eighties.

239
00:18:58.200 --> 00:19:04.400
Eight three eighty four, and so they were both comedians,

240
00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:06.359
comedy actors and stuff.

241
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:09.519
And then they went on and did have their own

242
00:19:09.559 --> 00:19:17.559
double act where they was it called Phil Fire Coming,

243
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:21.200
what was called Bottom? That's it. They had their own

244
00:19:21.359 --> 00:19:25.640
TV show called Bottom, which they performed all around the country,

245
00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:28.519
maybe around the world, I don't know, and it went

246
00:19:28.559 --> 00:19:34.480
on for ages longer than many many years. And Rick

247
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:37.920
mal was alsoing lots of different like sitcoms and stuff.

248
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:46.759
And I think Adrian Edmondson did he did a bit

249
00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:50.759
more serious stuff later on because he was in Holby City,

250
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:53.400
so he was really he's just a really good actor.

251
00:19:54.119 --> 00:20:02.400
They were both really good actors. But yeah, yeah, it's

252
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:10.279
a start. I remember one that Ricky what did he?

253
00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:10.680
There?

254
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:10.799
Was?

255
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:17.319
Oh, what's a TV show? It was about a minister

256
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:31.759
called Bastard, Alan Bastard and it's very funny. So rig Mel,

257
00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:35.359
see Ricky didn't know rig Mel was the star of that,

258
00:20:35.480 --> 00:20:38.039
and it was very good, very funny. That was in

259
00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:41.039
the like eighty six eight, not probably about eighty eight

260
00:20:41.079 --> 00:20:47.960
times eighty nine, eight nine. Anyway, But I also so

261
00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:54.039
going back to Helen, I went and she said, oh,

262
00:20:54.359 --> 00:20:56.400
I want to meet up with her. She lived, and

263
00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:06.599
she lived what's that movie? North London? Movie named after

264
00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:11.359
a North London area from a bloke did three weddings

265
00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:17.000
in a funeral notting Hill. She lived in notting Hill

266
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:21.519
and she lived in this really nice area, big streets,

267
00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:25.160
loads of trees. She lived in this flat which was

268
00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:29.200
be than a house where it was like it was

269
00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:34.640
like really quite a nice place. I couldn't find her

270
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:36.759
for ages, honestly, it was like it wasn't on the

271
00:21:36.759 --> 00:21:41.119
eater's head. It was hidden anyway. I went to visit

272
00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:46.440
her one day and she I think this Saturday, and

273
00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:48.799
she said, oh, I'm going for lunch. She'd go for lunch.

274
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.519
She said, oh okay, So she went to lunch and

275
00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:54.319
then when we got there, she said, oh, I'm meeting

276
00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:58.000
I can't remember the name. I have to have put

277
00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:05.640
it in there the special see I didn't realize. Okay

278
00:22:09.079 --> 00:22:12.680
he Terry Hall. That's it, Terry Hall. So Terry Hall.

279
00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:17.000
She said, oh, I got a friend coming along and said, okay, cool.

280
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.160
I didn't like the idea of that, but I said,

281
00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:22.880
fair enough. Not Paytrie girl, is it? And she said no.

282
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:28.359
I said okay, fair enough and she said it's Terry Hall.

283
00:22:28.839 --> 00:22:36.759
I said, means nothing to me. And so he came

284
00:22:36.759 --> 00:22:38.359
along and they were just talking. They had known each

285
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:41.680
other for seem like forever, good friends, and it was

286
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:46.240
really friendly, really nice bloke, and she was talking about

287
00:22:46.240 --> 00:22:48.599
what's he up to, and they were talking about music

288
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:50.599
and some stuff that he was getting on with. And

289
00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:55.799
but at no point did he mention or did she

290
00:22:55.960 --> 00:22:59.880
mention to me that he was a big star. I

291
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:02.839
keep being in I think three big bands in the UK.

292
00:23:05.799 --> 00:23:08.279
Terry Hall. I mean he's not around anymore, but he was.

293
00:23:09.799 --> 00:23:15.279
He kind of was is it Scar? He was kind

294
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:19.200
of I think created scar of certain type of music,

295
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:27.759
which then led to madness and maybe Adam and Niants

296
00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:34.039
should we say possibly, I don't know. Anyway, very influential

297
00:23:34.279 --> 00:23:36.160
and had loads of people in the band. It wasn't

298
00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:39.559
just like three people or four people. There was lots,

299
00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:43.200
So he was never going to make a huge amount

300
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:46.519
of money if he was shared amongst everyone. And I

301
00:23:46.599 --> 00:23:49.039
quite like that. I think he was just having fun

302
00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:53.240
with his friends, you know, And that did had such

303
00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:56.559
a great song, ghost Town, which was number one for

304
00:23:56.599 --> 00:23:59.319
a couple of weeks, but that's later on in the eighties.

305
00:24:01.079 --> 00:24:03.720
I'm not sure if I'm going to get past the

306
00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:11.000
first week of nineteen eighty one. That's not good, is it?

307
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:14.359
How am I going to? How am I supposed to?

308
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:22.759
Maybe this should be my new weekly recording songs. I

309
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:28.519
like the charts from the nineteen eighties because I'm going

310
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:32.319
to struggle to get through just one week. So if

311
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:35.559
you think about that, that's going to be fifty two

312
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:41.279
weeks times by ten years, five hundred and twenty recordings,

313
00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:47.440
five hundred and twenty years, five hundred and twenty years. Really,

314
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:53.279
so each year is going to be one It's going

315
00:24:53.319 --> 00:24:57.319
to take me one year to do, isn't it? Fifty two?

316
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:05.160
Which means maybe I should have started in nineteen seventy,

317
00:25:06.039 --> 00:25:08.079
But then that wouldn't make sense with it, because that

318
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:13.000
means I have to live to be another fifty five

319
00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:16.680
years old. But then by the time I'm in another

320
00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:19.880
fifty five years, there'll be another fifty five years to

321
00:25:19.960 --> 00:25:31.759
talk about. Oh, unless I just say my favorite songs,

322
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:38.839
So this could be the first episode of my favorite songs,

323
00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:45.160
But then I've already started it on the boring Monday.

324
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:52.759
Perhaps if I hadn't mentioned boring Monday's objects, but then

325
00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:56.559
I keep mentioning boring Monday's objects, Monday's boring objects rather.

326
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:03.079
I don't know. Anyways, I'm talking, we're just having a

327
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:07.839
nice chat. See if i'd known, but known how I

328
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:16.559
was back then when the waiter came around and sort

329
00:26:16.599 --> 00:26:19.319
of said, oh, are you ready to are you ready

330
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:23.640
to order? How could I not have said, what are

331
00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:28.400
the specials today? What's today's specials? Because he was in

332
00:26:28.440 --> 00:26:31.960
a bank called the specials? And I looked stupid, It

333
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:36.720
looked really dumb. I'd have found it hilarious as well.

334
00:26:36.799 --> 00:26:40.480
At the time. He probably wouldn't have done. She might

335
00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:43.000
have done, I don't know. She might have just been embarrassed,

336
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:46.160
but I think that was part of the deal. I

337
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:49.319
was quite embarrassing. I think she quite found that quite amusing.

338
00:26:50.319 --> 00:26:58.960
And he was lovely, really nice bloke. Now back then

339
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:03.759
I was did not like meeting new people. I've never

340
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:08.359
really enjoyed meeting new people. I'm okay once I meet them.

341
00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:12.400
Once I've kind of kind of got to know if

342
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:15.680
they're safe or not, I suppose in a weird way.

343
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:21.839
But it's easy when it's just lunch. It's just like

344
00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:24.480
an hour or two, like, Okay, I'm going to see

345
00:27:24.559 --> 00:27:30.359
him again. But when it comes to like working, or

346
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:33.559
someone moving in and like to a building or into

347
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:35.359
a house that I'm living in when it's in the

348
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:40.359
pastor or me moving into a new home and having

349
00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:43.119
to sort of kind of get to know new people,

350
00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:46.480
or me starting a new job. Yeah, I've never never

351
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:55.759
enjoyed that. But it's weird because eventually you just get

352
00:27:55.799 --> 00:28:02.000
to know people, don't you. It's standard. I mean when

353
00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:06.000
I started doing taekwondo, I remember, what, was I thirty?

354
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:13.119
Now I was forty one? Now was I forty one?

355
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:19.480
I was forty? I was forty years old and I

356
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:24.680
started doing time try. Yeah, taekwondo, and I didn't know

357
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:29.720
anyone there, and eventually I kind of got to know

358
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:32.480
so many people. And I was quite friendly with the

359
00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:36.680
instructor because he was more my age than anyone else,

360
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:39.599
because he was about ten years older than me. A

361
00:28:39.640 --> 00:28:45.000
lot of other people were like ten years fifteen years old,

362
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:48.400
twenty years old, twenty five. You know, there's a lot

363
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:51.960
of much younger people than me. I was the youngest,

364
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:55.240
but I wasn't the fattest. I was the second fettest,

365
00:28:57.400 --> 00:29:02.160
the second fettiest, but he was much more. I don't

366
00:29:02.160 --> 00:29:04.400
call other people fab I'm just saying, okay, well I

367
00:29:04.599 --> 00:29:11.920
was the second most rotund, and he was a lot

368
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:16.519
fitter than I was. And I remember thinking back to

369
00:29:16.559 --> 00:29:19.960
that time, thinking because I know I lost weight when

370
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:26.839
I was doing it, and after probably six months, i'd

371
00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:31.200
slip down. And I remember that because the instructor is

372
00:29:31.200 --> 00:29:34.960
saying you've lost weight, and I said, oh thanks, and

373
00:29:35.039 --> 00:29:37.200
I believed him, because why would someone lie about that.

374
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:44.160
It's to be crawln't it, Especially if I start walking

375
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:47.960
around about the top on thinking I'm slim now and

376
00:29:48.079 --> 00:29:52.440
everyone's laughing at me, as I know the police are

377
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:55.240
arresting me. He's like, oh, but your boobs back in

378
00:29:55.319 --> 00:30:01.759
the side, your brah. I'm like wow. And I see

379
00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:08.200
a picture recently that I've got of that time, and

380
00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:11.519
there's a picture of my belly just flopping over the belt.

381
00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:20.480
It's like, wow, that's me having lost weight crazy, And

382
00:30:20.559 --> 00:30:28.839
I was standing there thinking I was slim, Wow, too much?

383
00:30:28.960 --> 00:30:31.880
Too young? Do do do? I forget that? I don't

384
00:30:31.920 --> 00:30:35.440
know anyway, So I'm looking at this spirits having flown

385
00:30:35.519 --> 00:30:41.440
the beds? Is it love Your after? Rose Royce, Spacer

386
00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:49.759
Jazz Carnival, seventeen Regents, Rappers, Delight, the sugar Hill Gang.

387
00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:53.240
I don't know any of these day trip to Bagner

388
00:30:53.400 --> 00:30:57.240
to bangor if I only want to be with you?

389
00:30:58.359 --> 00:31:01.599
I only want to be with you? Do do Do

390
00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:04.799
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do do? What was

391
00:31:04.839 --> 00:31:08.160
that done by quite a few different people. It peaked

392
00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:11.680
at number four the tourists I only want to be

393
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:14.759
with you? Wasn't there a really famous person that song?

394
00:31:14.839 --> 00:31:19.319
The like really famous, like in the sixties or the

395
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:25.079
seventies or something. So I remember the song. I remember,

396
00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:27.160
I know the song song, but I don't know which

397
00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:34.680
version that was. Living by Numbers escape Rupert Holmes the

398
00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:38.759
Pinicolada song. I probably know that, but I can't think

399
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:44.559
of it working for the Yankee Dollar Skids. I'm beginning

400
00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:47.359
to think this is not a UK charts This is

401
00:31:51.559 --> 00:31:54.599
all it is? It is, it is, it is Okay,

402
00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:57.079
it just seemed like the songs I've never heard of.

403
00:31:57.240 --> 00:32:01.960
But yeah, is this love that I feeling? Is this

404
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:09.680
the love? Is that the one the Rose Royce? If

405
00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:13.759
it is, then it's a great song. Rappers Delight, the

406
00:32:13.799 --> 00:32:18.039
sugar Hill Gang. Nope, I don't know. It sounds familiar

407
00:32:19.559 --> 00:32:23.359
like the song that meant that, the sound, the sound,

408
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:27.279
the title Rappers Delight and then the sugar Hill Gang.

409
00:32:27.319 --> 00:32:35.319
So I've heard of the sugar Hill Gang working for

410
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:40.759
the Yankee Dollar Skids. Too Hot Cooling a gang? Too hot,

411
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:46.559
too hot. I'm in the mood for being too hot.

412
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:51.400
I feel like being too hot. Maybe that's cooling again.

413
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:56.400
I probably know that song, but it's not my cooling again,

414
00:32:56.519 --> 00:33:00.359
go to as it were? So when I was DJ,

415
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:03.480
Coolner gang songs were quite popular. They had quite a few,

416
00:33:04.200 --> 00:33:09.119
like dancing tracks, so cool in the Gang. I liked them,

417
00:33:09.240 --> 00:33:14.000
but I don't remember Too Hot, buzz buzz A did

418
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:18.480
lit Matchbox No there's number thirty. Don't know that one.

419
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:22.640
I probably do, but I can't sit off just from

420
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:28.440
the title, there's no image or anything. My feet keep

421
00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:34.799
dancing cheek or chick thirty one No Blue Peter by

422
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:44.160
Mike Oldfield. Now I'm surprised at that. The reason of

423
00:33:44.279 --> 00:33:50.720
surprise because I know who my Coldfield is. I know

424
00:33:51.480 --> 00:33:57.039
Blue Peter. It's the Blue Peter theme tune for one

425
00:33:57.079 --> 00:34:03.279
of the most famous children's TV shows in the UK history,

426
00:34:03.400 --> 00:34:06.960
Blue Peter, and possibly the longest running. I don't know

427
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:12.480
if it's still going now, and but it was like

428
00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:19.519
do do do do? So I'm thinking maybe Mike Oldfield

429
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:23.400
was asked to revamp it and make it sound better.

430
00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:32.000
Didn't Mike Coldfield? Did he do that? The no? Did he?

431
00:34:33.920 --> 00:34:38.440
Mike Coldfield? Did he? Did he do Trouebler Belts? And

432
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:42.119
I'm thinking of someone else, which makes him one of

433
00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:52.039
the most famous producers of music. Did he do did he?

434
00:34:52.239 --> 00:34:59.960
Did he do the Big Brother theme tune? Mm hmm. Anyway,

435
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:04.920
I know the tune like really well because I've heard

436
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:07.320
it thousands of times when I was a kid, probably,

437
00:35:08.440 --> 00:35:11.639
but I don't remember being in the charts, but clearly

438
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:15.840
it was for nineteen was twenty four weeks. It peaked

439
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:19.599
at number nineteen. No. It was in the chart for

440
00:35:19.719 --> 00:35:24.960
eight weeks, picked at number nineteen. Low's week was number

441
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:31.000
twenty four. Cowd of the country Kenny Rogers. I think

442
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:35.519
with someone like Kenny Rodgers, I will recognize this song

443
00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:41.639
when I hear it, but I won't necessarily know the

444
00:35:41.840 --> 00:35:51.039
title of the song because really, unlike in I'm going

445
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:53.280
to say America, because I don't know about other countries.

446
00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:57.440
I know in America a country in western music is

447
00:35:58.639 --> 00:36:04.159
it was huge and it still is huge in this

448
00:36:04.320 --> 00:36:08.920
country country and western country and is it country? No

449
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:11.159
country where it's not country and western? Is it a

450
00:36:11.239 --> 00:36:17.719
country music? Sorry? Country music. There's always been a place for.

451
00:36:17.800 --> 00:36:18.280
It here.

452
00:36:20.440 --> 00:36:24.880
And there's been some huge stars that have had, you know,

453
00:36:25.239 --> 00:36:30.960
big hits from the country world music world over the

454
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:34.519
decades in the UK, but it's not it's never been

455
00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:42.880
a dominant music here, so you'd you're unlikely to see

456
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:47.280
like a top forty where you've got ten songs from

457
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:53.199
the country country music. But some of the really big

458
00:36:53.239 --> 00:36:58.199
people like Dolly Parton, but there was more herb popular

459
00:36:58.320 --> 00:37:01.800
songs that became pop. Pillar that sounds weird. It doesn't.

460
00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:08.679
It's like nine to five and Joe Line things like that.

461
00:37:13.039 --> 00:37:16.400
So I actually had an uncle who is in a

462
00:37:16.519 --> 00:37:19.039
country band and it was the biggest country band in

463
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:24.039
the UK. He won awards like the most popular country

464
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:26.920
band every year, and I was so impressed until I

465
00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:31.000
realized there was only four bands in the country. We're joking.

466
00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:32.760
He was so good. I went to one of his

467
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:38.480
gigs once and he was I think he was doing

468
00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:45.119
it for probably four decades, five decades seriously from I

469
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:50.599
just did it forever that he started off probably doing

470
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:52.679
like sixties music, and then he kind of moved into

471
00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:57.360
country in the seventies when the sixties country has been

472
00:37:57.360 --> 00:38:00.840
around forever, isn't it not the with the trees? I'm

473
00:38:00.840 --> 00:38:05.800
talking about country music. Got to Love Somebody, Sister Sledge,

474
00:38:06.679 --> 00:38:11.559
got to love somebody, I'm in the mood forgot to

475
00:38:11.639 --> 00:38:16.159
love somebody. For loving somebody. I don't know that one.

476
00:38:16.239 --> 00:38:18.880
Then it peaked a number thirty four, So that wasn't

477
00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:25.159
like a big strange little girl said Cafe Nope, Young

478
00:38:25.199 --> 00:38:30.159
Blood UFO, Sarah Fleetwood Mac don't know that one, My

479
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:37.239
simple heart. The three degrees thirty nine Paradise Bird the letter, Wonderland,

480
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:54.880
the commodals. Now I probably do know those. However, January

481
00:38:55.119 --> 00:39:02.199
nineteen eighty first to twentieth twentieth is the wrong? Is

482
00:39:02.639 --> 00:39:07.880
doing wrong? Why is it doing that? For six of

483
00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:12.960
the first six of the first, first of the first

484
00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:22.280
if you see first of the first, twenty January nineteen eighty, right,

485
00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:33.280
that's the first one that we can do. Chance, Okay,

486
00:39:33.480 --> 00:39:38.280
So twelfth is September. Why why have you done that for?

487
00:39:39.119 --> 00:39:42.960
Why twelve September? I don't want twelve to September twenty

488
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:47.199
twenty five is taking away from me. It's say no,

489
00:39:49.320 --> 00:39:51.519
do what I told you, or don't do anything at all.

490
00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:55.679
Stop knowing. I've got to go all the way back

491
00:39:55.679 --> 00:40:01.960
to nineteen eighty. It's going to take absolutely years if

492
00:40:02.000 --> 00:40:03.960
they won't even let me go, and then going back

493
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:12.000
as far as twenty twenty one. Why why are you

494
00:40:12.159 --> 00:40:18.239
doing this? Okay? So for some reason it's blocked me out,

495
00:40:19.280 --> 00:40:24.039
and I don't understand why. I don't get Oh, it's

496
00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:26.599
go to Wikipedia, see if that will do it. Nineteen

eighty best selling single of the year. Madonna had six

most successful single act of the decade, and six of

511
00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:45.840
decade nineteen eighties was Do Their Notes Christmas by band Aid,

512
00:41:47.000 --> 00:41:50.480
selling more than three point five million copies and passing

513
00:41:51.039 --> 00:41:55.880
Mula of King Tire by Wings to become the best

514
00:41:56.079 --> 00:42:04.280
selling single ever altogether. Now My Looking No Need for

515
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:11.400
News the only song I've ever enjoyed listening to bagpipes.

516
00:42:13.719 --> 00:42:17.599
I'm not a fan of bad pipes, bad pipes, bagpipes.

517
00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:28.239
I know, no, sorry, I can't, I don't know. I

518
00:42:28.320 --> 00:42:32.000
think it's just just not really my ears aren't suited

519
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:37.000
for it. I'm sure they're amazing. My ears don't can't

520
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:43.199
adapt to bagpipes, and not everybody that plays bagpipes in

521
00:42:43.280 --> 00:42:49.519
public trying to think what the correct words is not

522
00:42:49.639 --> 00:43:01.159
everyone that plays bagpipes in public should play bagpipes in public. Yeah,

523
00:43:01.840 --> 00:43:06.039
I think it's quite a difficult instrument to learn. I

524
00:43:06.199 --> 00:43:10.400
think it must be, otherwise more people would be good

525
00:43:10.400 --> 00:43:13.239
at it. And sure, I'm sure they are, but I've

526
00:43:13.320 --> 00:43:16.559
just you know, I'm moving on. Nineteen eighty saw the

527
00:43:16.639 --> 00:43:20.199
introduction of the cassette single. Really, I thought that was

528
00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:24.159
around for ages. I used to buy the cassette single

529
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:28.320
along the seven inch and twelve inch format in nineteen

530
00:43:28.360 --> 00:43:33.199
eighty seven. In nineteen eighty seven, major record labels developed

531
00:43:33.239 --> 00:43:42.079
a common format for the CD single. I'll tell you

532
00:43:42.199 --> 00:43:46.719
what I didn't even I don't think. I started listening

533
00:43:46.800 --> 00:43:56.280
to CDs till the late nineties, so it took me

534
00:43:56.440 --> 00:44:01.440
ten years before I even accepted the CDs existed. Honestly,

535
00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:13.400
still buying tapes. Best selling single of the year, Wait

536
00:44:13.400 --> 00:44:18.360
a minute, nineteen seventy, okay, nineteen eighty so it's going

537
00:44:18.400 --> 00:44:20.440
to give me this is for the whole year so

538
00:44:20.440 --> 00:44:22.519
I'm not going to go by week now because it's

539
00:44:22.760 --> 00:44:40.039
to take ages number. This is the number, So why

540
00:44:40.079 --> 00:44:46.159
has it got a number four? It's very weird. So

541
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:48.840
let's have a look. These were the ones that weeks

542
00:44:48.880 --> 00:44:51.519
at number one. These were the number one songs Pink

543
00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:54.639
Floyd and Our Brick and the Wall, Pretenders, Brass in

544
00:44:54.719 --> 00:45:04.320
a Pocket and Blondie Atomic. I loved Blondie, Blondie. See

545
00:45:04.639 --> 00:45:06.679
see when I get asked the question on a Q

546
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:09.400
and A Friday, I'll say, oh, I'll go to the

547
00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:15.280
music and I think, well, Madonna, Terrence, Trent Derby, and

548
00:45:15.360 --> 00:45:18.400
I sort of think about, you know, Michael Jackson and

549
00:45:19.599 --> 00:45:28.840
the Beatles and Stevie Wonder and George Michael and different

550
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:34.119
various people that I really loved a lot. But there

551
00:45:34.239 --> 00:45:36.159
was a lot of songs, a lot of singers, a

552
00:45:36.199 --> 00:45:40.840
lot of bands that I never bought an album off ever,

553
00:45:41.920 --> 00:45:45.960
a Blondie and I love so many songs that Blondie did,

554
00:45:46.639 --> 00:45:54.599
particularly the Tide is High, because I remember my I

555
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:58.960
couldn't tell the exact year. I could because I could

556
00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:01.440
look it up, couldn't I Actually, let's look it up.

557
00:46:02.280 --> 00:46:06.599
Where am I being so so coy? The Tide is High,

558
00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:09.920
which I would say is one of their biggest hits,

559
00:46:11.159 --> 00:46:22.840
The Tide is High. Come on, Blondie, Blondie and discography Blondie. Right.

560
00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:32.000
I want singles, not albums essential great, No, I want singles,

561
00:46:34.119 --> 00:46:41.199
live albums. These are just albums. I want singles. Where's

562
00:46:41.239 --> 00:46:41.880
the singles?

563
00:46:43.199 --> 00:46:43.320
Oh?

564
00:46:43.440 --> 00:46:49.599
Here we go, right, So let's go down to the

565
00:46:49.679 --> 00:46:53.719
correct year. So I'm just going down. They started in

566
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:59.000
ninety seventy six. They had a number one in Belgium

567
00:47:00.039 --> 00:47:04.199
and number one in New Zealand with Denise Denise. Denise

568
00:47:07.400 --> 00:47:10.480
UK was number two, so that was great song. I

569
00:47:10.559 --> 00:47:13.960
loved that. That was nineteen seventy eight. So I didn't

570
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:19.440
realize that Hanging on the Teared the Phone that was

571
00:47:19.480 --> 00:47:23.119
seventy eight as well, and reached number five in the UK.

572
00:47:25.719 --> 00:47:32.519
See that's weird, right, Why are none of those listed

573
00:47:32.880 --> 00:47:39.440
in the US. So Denise Denise like didn't even register.

574
00:47:39.840 --> 00:47:44.599
Like they didn't release it in America, an American group.

575
00:47:44.639 --> 00:47:48.480
I do believe Hanging on Telephone didn't release in America

576
00:47:48.519 --> 00:47:53.639
because it didn't chart. How please explain that to me?

577
00:47:54.000 --> 00:47:59.239
How great song? Two great songs got number five here?

578
00:48:02.199 --> 00:48:06.639
So we charted the highest in the UK and in

579
00:48:06.760 --> 00:48:11.519
Denise charted second highest in the UK, but he went

580
00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:15.519
to number one in New Zealand and Belgium. And then

581
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:22.760
in nineteen seventy nine, heart Glass reached number one in

582
00:48:22.800 --> 00:48:28.159
the UK but also in the US, so that must

583
00:48:28.159 --> 00:48:32.679
have been their big breakthrough hit. It reached number one

584
00:48:32.719 --> 00:48:40.239
in Australia, in Canada, gerbil or Germany, probably not Germany

585
00:48:43.320 --> 00:48:49.760
and New Zealand. So big hit reached got silver silver,

586
00:48:51.000 --> 00:48:55.079
I don't know what I'm saying, Silver's heart Glass. Then

587
00:48:57.159 --> 00:49:02.000
Sunday Girl didn't didn't even get in the charts in America.

588
00:49:02.440 --> 00:49:07.400
This is nineteen seventy nine. Wait a minute, Heart Glasses

589
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:09.920
seventy nine. Sunday Girl got to number one in the

590
00:49:10.039 --> 00:49:19.519
UK again and also Ireland, but didn't chart in America.

591
00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:25.760
And then one way or another, one way or another,

592
00:49:26.199 --> 00:49:28.039
I'm going to get Yeah, I'm going to get it

593
00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:32.320
one way or another. So you don't anyone remember that

594
00:49:32.760 --> 00:49:36.679
it was a good song. It did chart in America,

595
00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:41.159
twenty four, got to got to number ninety eight in

596
00:49:41.239 --> 00:49:47.360
the UK, so maybe people in this country were not.

597
00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:53.880
So we're getting bored, which I understand because Blondie was

598
00:49:54.800 --> 00:50:00.840
amazing Dreaming. So in America this started to get more

599
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:04.719
like kids, but they were still only getting like twenty four,

600
00:50:04.840 --> 00:50:12.360
twenty seven, eighty four when Dreaming got to number two

601
00:50:12.400 --> 00:50:17.920
in the UK, twenty seven in America. Union City Blue

602
00:50:18.559 --> 00:50:23.840
thirteen in the UK didn't even register in America, and

603
00:50:24.000 --> 00:50:27.119
the hardest part, the hardest part, got to eighty four.

604
00:50:28.199 --> 00:50:30.800
The thing is number eighty four in an American chart,

605
00:50:30.880 --> 00:50:36.000
when you got three hundred plus thousand people compared to

606
00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:40.320
probably back then, I don't know what fifty hours, fifty

607
00:50:40.360 --> 00:50:44.920
five hours, three hundred million, probably three hundred and ten

608
00:50:45.559 --> 00:50:48.760
million or twenty million in America. Here there was probably

609
00:50:48.760 --> 00:50:54.079
about fifty fifty five, fifty six million in nineteen eighty

610
00:50:54.280 --> 00:50:57.480
ninety seventy nine, fifty million. It's a lot more now.

611
00:50:58.840 --> 00:51:02.639
And then at the end of nineteen seventy nine, called

612
00:51:02.719 --> 00:51:07.519
me number one in America, number one in the UK.

613
00:51:10.119 --> 00:51:14.559
So it's weird, So nineteen seventy nine, so nineteen for

614
00:51:14.679 --> 00:51:23.559
the looks of this, it's heart glass. I'm gonna thus

615
00:51:24.199 --> 00:51:30.880
so heart of glass, so call me. It was nineteen eighty.

616
00:51:30.920 --> 00:51:34.199
So they got one, number one in America hard Glass

617
00:51:34.320 --> 00:51:38.559
in nineteen seventy nine. That was their first song they

618
00:51:38.599 --> 00:51:43.119
got to number one, and in nineteen eighty call Me

619
00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:45.119
got to number one and in the UK as well,

620
00:51:46.840 --> 00:51:53.280
So technically we appreciated and realized how wonderful Madonna, how

621
00:51:53.320 --> 00:52:01.760
wonderful Blondie was kind of before anyone else. It's only US, Belgium,

622
00:52:02.159 --> 00:52:07.360
maybe Ireland, Canada were the only ones that really appreciated

623
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:15.280
how brilliant they were. But call Me that was there.

624
00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:18.920
I guess that rule you go. I wouldn't say that

625
00:52:18.960 --> 00:52:20.639
the breakthrough because I said, they have a number one

626
00:52:20.639 --> 00:52:27.039
in America and it went gold, so they made a

627
00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:32.480
lot of money from that one song, so it's successful wise,

628
00:52:32.559 --> 00:52:36.000
but it's just weird that they didn't didn't get in

629
00:52:36.039 --> 00:52:37.960
the top ten with any of the other songs until

630
00:52:38.159 --> 00:52:43.280
call Me in nineteen eighty number one, number one in

631
00:52:43.400 --> 00:52:47.639
the America. Atomic only got to number thirty nine in America.

632
00:52:48.320 --> 00:52:51.679
What is wrong with you? People got to number one here,

633
00:52:52.360 --> 00:53:00.639
we're the only country that appreciated Atomic thirty nine. Realize

634
00:53:01.760 --> 00:53:04.280
when we did our charts in the UK, we didn't

635
00:53:04.320 --> 00:53:09.199
go below forty. It was also top forty, so any

636
00:53:09.320 --> 00:53:14.639
chart below that wasn't even mentioned. Ever, they've got no

637
00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:20.800
publicity in the UK lays in the United Kingdom of England,

638
00:53:21.079 --> 00:53:29.280
Commonwealth Britain. Atomic So Atomic got to number one in

639
00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:34.320
the UK, but it also chied in the top twenty

640
00:53:34.400 --> 00:53:38.599
in every other country, well apart from one America and

641
00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:52.239
which was thirty nine and Canada. Right, so you've got

642
00:53:52.320 --> 00:53:55.840
heroes that didn't chart at all. I don't know what

643
00:53:55.920 --> 00:54:02.719
happened there, a non album single and then my favoritest

644
00:54:02.800 --> 00:54:05.519
song that they ever did. And this is what I

645
00:54:05.599 --> 00:54:09.840
was going to talk about. This was nineteen eighty, which

646
00:54:09.840 --> 00:54:16.239
is weird because I was, yeah, I suppose it makes sense.

647
00:54:16.719 --> 00:54:21.400
Nineteen eighty Does it say when? Does it say when?

648
00:54:22.159 --> 00:54:24.400
From luks of It's at the end of nineteen eighty

649
00:54:24.519 --> 00:54:27.679
to probably the winter nineteen eighty. So I turned ten.

650
00:54:28.719 --> 00:54:34.159
My oldest brother was fourteen. He had a job at

651
00:54:34.280 --> 00:54:38.599
Tesco or some supermarket up the road around the corner

652
00:54:39.159 --> 00:54:47.519
part time, and we used to get He was more

653
00:54:47.960 --> 00:54:51.320
obsessed about the charts than I was. Now. I was

654
00:54:51.360 --> 00:54:55.840
happy to wait till Thursday to watch it on Top

655
00:54:55.880 --> 00:55:00.119
of the Pops, but the actual chart was released on

656
00:55:00.239 --> 00:55:08.599
a Tuesday, and the only way I could spoil, you know,

657
00:55:09.480 --> 00:55:11.000
I kind of had to listen to it on a

658
00:55:11.119 --> 00:55:17.119
Tuesday in order for him not to spoiler for me

659
00:55:17.199 --> 00:55:21.000
because he told me who was number one otherwise, because

660
00:55:21.039 --> 00:55:22.920
it'd be two days till it was actually released on

661
00:55:23.000 --> 00:55:27.199
Top of the Pops on the Thursday night. So he

662
00:55:27.360 --> 00:55:28.960
used to listen to it on a Tuesday. And what

663
00:55:29.119 --> 00:55:32.599
we did is, I remember one particular night he was working.

664
00:55:32.920 --> 00:55:36.639
It was dark outside. I'm adding that for effect. I

665
00:55:36.719 --> 00:55:41.920
don't know who knows. I can't remember, but I remember

666
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:46.039
taping the Top forty and I'm guessing it was on

667
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:51.360
Radio one and they did the Top the Top forty

668
00:55:51.679 --> 00:55:58.519
charts and I recorded the whole thing. Now it needed

669
00:55:59.360 --> 00:56:02.079
probably tape needed to be turned over in order to

670
00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:03.920
record at the other side of the tape because of

671
00:56:04.000 --> 00:56:07.440
the length of the show, which was probably three hours long,

672
00:56:07.719 --> 00:56:16.559
maybe two hours long. And he kept saying, don't tell me,

673
00:56:18.039 --> 00:56:23.000
don't tell me who's number one. I don't know why,

674
00:56:24.760 --> 00:56:26.920
but he was looking so he was really looking forward

675
00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:30.000
to it. I wanted Debbie Harriet to be number one.

676
00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:33.880
And because I love the Tide is High. It's my

677
00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:39.000
favorite song at the time, and I should I sing

678
00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:44.920
it to you. The Tired is high, They're tired, It

679
00:56:45.000 --> 00:56:49.559
is high. The tide is high, the tide is ha

680
00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:55.199
hi hi, and I remember it's weird. I got this memory.

681
00:56:55.199 --> 00:56:59.679
I remember we had this like stacked system. I was

682
00:56:59.719 --> 00:57:03.519
like and one with like two. There was a record

683
00:57:03.559 --> 00:57:06.519
player at the top with a plastic cover that he

684
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:16.079
built up, and there was a radio in built, and

685
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:21.840
then further down there was two tape recorders side by

686
00:57:22.079 --> 00:57:26.199
side which you could tape. You could tape the tape,

687
00:57:28.840 --> 00:57:33.440
and then at the bottom I think there was roomed

688
00:57:33.679 --> 00:57:41.559
for albums to become and it had this glass kind

689
00:57:41.599 --> 00:57:46.920
of like dark glass door with a magnet so you

690
00:57:47.000 --> 00:57:49.039
could just push it and he had just clicks up,

691
00:57:50.079 --> 00:57:58.199
you know, magnetized. I think the reason I remember, I

692
00:57:58.280 --> 00:58:01.400
think I think my dad's still got it. Actually, I

693
00:58:01.480 --> 00:58:03.920
think he's still got it, or he did still have

694
00:58:04.079 --> 00:58:07.199
it when I was living with him in nineteen ninety

695
00:58:08.079 --> 00:58:12.400
for a little while. So I've probably seen it loads

696
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:18.079
of times over the years, so that's why I remember it. Maybe.

697
00:58:18.480 --> 00:58:18.920
But I just.

698
00:58:19.000 --> 00:58:27.519
Remember sitting there on the floor making sure that I

699
00:58:27.639 --> 00:58:31.159
got all the songs, and I'm sudd I've got this memory,

700
00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:34.719
and I might have made this bit up, but he

701
00:58:34.880 --> 00:58:39.599
was phoning, kept phoning up from work. He only lived

702
00:58:39.599 --> 00:58:42.960
around the corner. Kept phoning up from work to say,

703
00:58:43.719 --> 00:58:47.079
did you remember? Do you remember to record it? Said yes,

704
00:58:48.360 --> 00:58:50.280
I think at one point he actually came home on

705
00:58:50.400 --> 00:58:59.000
his break because it was literally thirty seconds walk just

706
00:58:59.079 --> 00:59:02.000
came in to check the recording it. It's like, yes,

707
00:59:02.199 --> 00:59:04.960
we know. It's the most important thinking that world. We're

708
00:59:05.039 --> 00:59:06.960
doing it because me and my brother were both doing

709
00:59:07.000 --> 00:59:12.800
it together. My other brother like, what's so important about this?

710
00:59:14.000 --> 00:59:17.719
He said, you don't understand. I don't understand how important

711
00:59:17.800 --> 00:59:25.000
this is. I do wonder if we had different parents. So, yeah,

712
00:59:25.079 --> 00:59:27.000
tyder Is High. That was one of my favorite songs.

713
00:59:29.800 --> 00:59:33.000
I don't know why I'm mentioning the Tyler's High? Why

714
00:59:33.119 --> 00:59:38.679
was I talking about Tyler's High? Rapture? So that got

715
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:40.639
to number one in America but got to number five

716
00:59:40.920 --> 00:59:46.159
in the UK. I don't even remember that one, So

717
00:59:46.320 --> 00:59:48.880
this is really weird unless it was a different chart

718
00:59:48.920 --> 00:59:54.920
in America. But clearly Blondie was much bigger in the

719
00:59:55.079 --> 00:59:59.320
UK than it was in not in amounts of people

720
00:59:59.599 --> 01:00:04.360
because we've got much smaller population, but as far as

721
01:00:04.639 --> 01:00:12.039
like the percentage or the amount from a chart perspective,

722
01:00:13.039 --> 01:00:18.360
Blondie we're just reaching a much higher position. But I'm guessing, like,

723
01:00:18.519 --> 01:00:22.519
let's say, for example, the first number one Half Class

724
01:00:22.599 --> 01:00:28.719
in America, that one song probably sold more singles in

725
01:00:28.840 --> 01:00:32.880
America than all of Blondie's songs did in the UK,

726
01:00:34.000 --> 01:00:38.400
all combined, just that one song in America. So it's

727
01:00:39.119 --> 01:00:41.800
you know, you can look at it different directions. I

728
01:00:41.840 --> 01:00:49.280
suppose anyway, Blondie was good. That's all I was trying

729
01:00:49.280 --> 01:00:59.920
to say, is I like Blondie. Thurn Kinney the chair

730
01:01:00.440 --> 01:01:08.039
going underground, I'm going underground. I like that song together

731
01:01:08.239 --> 01:01:11.159
we Are Beautiful. It got to number one. I don't

732
01:01:11.159 --> 01:01:17.159
know what that is though. The Detroit Spinners, I'm working

733
01:01:17.280 --> 01:01:20.960
my way back to you, babe. That was a good

734
01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:23.360
song like that. They got to number two. This is

735
01:01:23.440 --> 01:01:27.119
nineteen eighty. I'm still in nineteen eighty. I've gone from

736
01:01:27.159 --> 01:01:32.559
the first week to the whole year. Deck Sees Midnight Runners.

737
01:01:33.199 --> 01:01:38.880
Gino or Gino got to number two. Johnny Logan, what's

738
01:01:38.920 --> 01:01:43.280
another year. This is seventeenth of May nineteen eighty got

739
01:01:43.320 --> 01:01:50.719
to number two, very first to May the Mesh a

740
01:01:50.920 --> 01:01:56.039
theme from Smash. Theme from Mesh. I'm not going to

741
01:01:56.119 --> 01:02:01.039
read it out because it's a topic that's not really

742
01:02:01.119 --> 01:02:05.559
acceptable to say online anymore. But if you watch Mesh,

743
01:02:05.639 --> 01:02:09.400
you know the theme tune. It's I didn't realize I

744
01:02:10.280 --> 01:02:14.960
thought Mesh was because I watched Mesh the first time.

745
01:02:17.400 --> 01:02:25.440
Now nineteen eighty four, when I got my first TV.

746
01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:28.000
Might have been eighty five, but I think it was

747
01:02:28.079 --> 01:02:31.159
eighty four. I've got my first black and white TV,

748
01:02:32.039 --> 01:02:37.639
and I just got these memories. Such as it was,

749
01:02:38.360 --> 01:02:40.880
it was because I was a bit of a goggle

750
01:02:40.920 --> 01:02:46.920
box person. I was, really I love television. Television was

751
01:02:47.000 --> 01:02:49.880
better than real life for me personally. It's how I

752
01:02:49.960 --> 01:02:55.280
felt and I enjoyed it. It was escapism and it

753
01:02:55.440 --> 01:03:00.960
was more fun than reality. I understand, probably not very healthy,

754
01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:04.199
but it's just the way it was back then. That's

755
01:03:04.280 --> 01:03:12.280
how my life was. And I loved television, absolutely loved it.

756
01:03:16.440 --> 01:03:21.079
And I remember the first time ever outside of the weekends,

757
01:03:21.199 --> 01:03:24.039
like I think on a Friday and Saturday night, I

758
01:03:24.079 --> 01:03:27.280
could stay up later, but the rest of the week

759
01:03:27.440 --> 01:03:32.719
I was in bed by nine or whatever. Even I

760
01:03:32.760 --> 01:03:34.960
don't know what the cutoff was, but probably nine o'clock

761
01:03:35.000 --> 01:03:38.280
when I was a teenager. Earlier on when I was younger,

762
01:03:39.519 --> 01:03:41.840
maybe nine point thirty, maybe even ten. I don't know.

763
01:03:43.199 --> 01:03:50.920
But once I got my TV, there was no bedtime.

764
01:03:51.960 --> 01:03:56.159
Bedtime didn't exist anymore. I'd pretend to go to bed.

765
01:03:57.480 --> 01:03:59.280
I mean, I'd be going up at like seven in

766
01:03:59.280 --> 01:04:04.880
the evening. I'll I'm retired now. I just made myself

767
01:04:04.960 --> 01:04:12.039
your I'd say bye, my good night everybody, and I

768
01:04:12.119 --> 01:04:14.239
go ak and I want to kiss. My brother would say,

769
01:04:14.239 --> 01:04:16.559
we don't kissing me. I said, I'm just happy because

770
01:04:17.000 --> 01:04:18.880
I got in TV. And he said, oh, fair enough,

771
01:04:20.159 --> 01:04:22.440
and just don't do it again. I said, okay, sorry,

772
01:04:24.119 --> 01:04:26.519
and I go upstairs. I just skip up the stair.

773
01:04:26.519 --> 01:04:27.840
I wouldn't skip up the stairs.

774
01:04:27.840 --> 01:04:30.519
I don't Why would I say that whoever skips up

775
01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:35.800
the stairs skipping room gets tangled in it in the bannerstone,

776
01:04:36.760 --> 01:04:38.800
but yeah, anyway I walked up the stairs.

777
01:04:38.639 --> 01:04:42.599
I might have ran. I could run back then, but

778
01:04:42.639 --> 01:04:45.480
I might just walked at a steady pace. It's very

779
01:04:46.199 --> 01:04:48.679
difficult for me to remember because I didn't write anything

780
01:04:48.760 --> 01:04:52.719
down in my diary, and even when I did journals

781
01:04:53.159 --> 01:04:56.480
over like twenty five year period, I never mentioned stairs.

782
01:04:58.039 --> 01:05:02.360
Just never came up. And the only stairs story really

783
01:05:02.519 --> 01:05:06.639
is probably when I fell down the stairs twice. It's

784
01:05:06.880 --> 01:05:08.800
down here and then when I was a little kid,

785
01:05:09.400 --> 01:05:11.440
fell down some stairs while I was holding a box

786
01:05:11.519 --> 01:05:18.480
full of little cars. I think, I think, so oh yeah,

787
01:05:18.519 --> 01:05:22.360
and also well, yeah, I used to pretend to fall

788
01:05:22.440 --> 01:05:24.239
down the stairs so I could get days of school,

789
01:05:25.719 --> 01:05:34.079
but it didn't really work very well. So once I

790
01:05:34.239 --> 01:05:39.320
was doing it and I wanted my stepmom to find

791
01:05:39.400 --> 01:05:41.920
me at the bottom stairs, I'd be like, oh, I'll

792
01:05:41.960 --> 01:05:46.480
be holding my knee or something, and it worked a

793
01:05:46.519 --> 01:05:49.880
little bit. On one occasion, she was actually in the bathroom,

794
01:05:50.119 --> 01:05:53.519
which is on the top of the stairs, and she

795
01:05:53.840 --> 01:05:55.679
came out as I was doing it, as I was

796
01:05:55.719 --> 01:05:58.880
like pretending to fall down, and she was watching me

797
01:05:59.000 --> 01:06:03.960
the whole time and couldn't really get away with it anymore.

798
01:06:08.639 --> 01:06:11.880
I think he was just watching over the banister. I'm

799
01:06:11.920 --> 01:06:14.639
trying to get my head around. Yeah, yeah, because the

800
01:06:14.719 --> 01:06:18.199
bathroom that was just off of the top of the stairs.

801
01:06:19.719 --> 01:06:19.920
Yeah.

802
01:06:21.239 --> 01:06:25.840
So it was so lovely just watching TV. I got

803
01:06:25.880 --> 01:06:29.079
to see things I've never seen before. Suddenly I could

804
01:06:29.079 --> 01:06:32.360
have watched Kojak if I wanted to, or I could

805
01:06:32.440 --> 01:06:38.320
watch or Mesh. I never heard of Mesh, I never

806
01:06:38.480 --> 01:06:44.960
heard of I was Cheers, never heard of Cheers before

807
01:06:46.039 --> 01:06:48.239
I was watching these programs I've never heard of before,

808
01:06:48.280 --> 01:06:52.239
and like wow, it was like a whole new world

809
01:06:52.320 --> 01:06:56.360
opened up to me. The passed nine o'clock in the evening,

810
01:06:57.239 --> 01:07:00.639
things were happening, and these programs was things that I

811
01:07:00.800 --> 01:07:03.800
wasn't allowed to watch, that the family didn't watch together.

812
01:07:06.559 --> 01:07:08.760
That's when I realized I have a very different taste

813
01:07:08.800 --> 01:07:13.000
in programs to the family, you know, like my dad

814
01:07:13.079 --> 01:07:15.920
and whatever. They'd watch stuff on a Saturday night that

815
01:07:18.440 --> 01:07:21.840
I wouldn't watch. I'd watch it because it was part

816
01:07:21.880 --> 01:07:28.400
of the routine, the ritual whatever I want to say, richual,

817
01:07:28.519 --> 01:07:35.239
I don't mean anything weird, just watching television. There's no

818
01:07:35.400 --> 01:07:45.639
sacrificics or anything, right, right, kids, Logan's Logan runs finished,

819
01:07:45.880 --> 01:07:52.000
the A teams finished, right, Let's go and get Let's

820
01:07:52.039 --> 01:07:53.760
go in the garden and get all the candles out

821
01:07:54.639 --> 01:08:02.199
and organized today's sacrifice. So Olivia Newton, John Zana Do

822
01:08:02.760 --> 01:08:07.760
An Electric Light Orchestra, don McLean crying? Is that the

823
01:08:07.800 --> 01:08:14.199
one crying over you? Xana Do? I like Xana Do?

824
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:23.479
Sana do? Sana do? I don't know why Ello the

825
01:08:23.560 --> 01:08:27.600
Electric Light Orchestra did another version of Sandy Do with

826
01:08:27.680 --> 01:08:31.560
a different singer. Why why would you need to do that.

827
01:08:33.920 --> 01:08:39.000
I'm not I'm not judging, just asking because Olivia Newton

828
01:08:39.079 --> 01:08:46.199
John I had such an amazing voice odyssey that got

829
01:08:46.239 --> 01:08:49.359
to number two in the chants odyssey, I don't know,

830
01:08:49.560 --> 01:08:52.399
use it up and wear it out. I don't have

831
01:08:52.880 --> 01:08:56.880
toilet paper. I don't know underpants Appa, The Winner takes

832
01:08:56.920 --> 01:09:01.039
it all. We've got number two August August nineteen eighty

833
01:09:02.319 --> 01:09:09.279
the win that takes it all. And it just shows

834
01:09:09.319 --> 01:09:12.199
you what I know. I really thought that Abba had

835
01:09:12.279 --> 01:09:17.239
kind of finished. In seventy nine, David Bowie Ashes to

836
01:09:17.359 --> 01:09:21.439
Ashes I got to number two. So I would have

837
01:09:21.520 --> 01:09:24.319
seen it because I always watched Top of the Pops,

838
01:09:24.680 --> 01:09:28.319
so anything in the top forty I would have seen.

839
01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:33.319
Whether or not I liked it or not, I don't know.

840
01:09:34.560 --> 01:09:39.239
I would have seen it on TV. Ashes to Ashes,

841
01:09:39.399 --> 01:09:43.920
Dust and the Jam start number one. I don't remember

842
01:09:43.960 --> 01:09:48.760
that one. Kelly Marie feels like I'm in love. I

843
01:09:49.000 --> 01:09:52.119
know that one they got to number two feels like

844
01:09:52.520 --> 01:09:58.720
A'm in love. I'm in love feels like I'm in love.

845
01:10:01.199 --> 01:10:02.760
I know it's getting old, but I'm going to keep

846
01:10:02.760 --> 01:10:06.520
doing it. The police don't stand so close to me.

847
01:10:07.720 --> 01:10:13.159
Wow again I love that song. That was number four.

848
01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:21.760
I'm gonna turn where else all right? Came on Vinnie,

849
01:10:21.920 --> 01:10:24.479
but I can't make a movement abound him, stopping what

850
01:10:24.560 --> 01:10:28.079
he's doing, so the police don't stand so close to me.

851
01:10:28.199 --> 01:10:40.239
Twenty seventh September nineteen eighty Barbers streisand Woman in Love.

852
01:10:43.319 --> 01:10:47.520
I don't think I necessarily particularly appreciated that song at

853
01:10:47.520 --> 01:10:53.560
the time. That was one hell of a song, just

854
01:10:53.680 --> 01:10:59.880
a warm morning love. Okay, that didn't do it justice,

855
01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:03.600
but that is a great song. Number three had tied

856
01:11:03.840 --> 01:11:08.319
in the UK. I'm going to miss out Blondie because

857
01:11:08.800 --> 01:11:11.920
Oh the tide is high? Was the fifteenth of November

858
01:11:12.039 --> 01:11:16.720
nineteen eighty reached number two? Why is it saying that

859
01:11:16.800 --> 01:11:20.199
when earlier on said I reached number one? Make up

860
01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:35.760
your mind baby, it's lying to me. Very strange, very strange, indeed.

861
01:11:37.760 --> 01:11:45.920
But fifteenth November nineteen eighty, so I was ten ten

862
01:11:46.119 --> 01:11:51.479
two months and a half EBBA, so it would have

863
01:11:51.520 --> 01:11:55.319
been dark outside of it at night, especially like seven

864
01:11:55.359 --> 01:11:58.840
o'clock or six point thirty whenever that came on be

865
01:11:59.159 --> 01:12:05.000
Radio one. ABBA's Super Truper got to number three. It's

866
01:12:05.119 --> 01:12:20.720
November nineteen eighty twenty ninth. Okay, this is weird. So

867
01:12:24.840 --> 01:12:28.600
John Lennon, just like Starting Over twenty for December nineteen

868
01:12:28.640 --> 01:12:31.760
eighty got to number one. No, it's not weird. I

869
01:12:31.880 --> 01:12:37.079
just didn't realize that was the first one that they released. Yeah,

870
01:12:37.159 --> 01:12:41.279
so that's the twenty f December. That was when John

871
01:12:41.399 --> 01:12:47.880
Lennon was unfortunately left us, so he they released that

872
01:12:48.079 --> 01:12:52.960
song and then I didn't remember that. I remember they

873
01:12:53.359 --> 01:12:59.720
another song, but for some reason I thought that they

874
01:12:59.800 --> 01:13:10.279
really least am I'm surprised considering it was like near Christmas,

875
01:13:10.840 --> 01:13:21.079
why they didn't release the Merry Christmas one? Or maybe

876
01:13:21.119 --> 01:13:33.279
they put that on the other side. Wow, that's weird

877
01:13:33.319 --> 01:13:42.920
in it? H M, yes, sir, John, Imagine and Woman

878
01:13:44.119 --> 01:13:49.039
were both It was number four Imagine and Woman was

879
01:13:49.159 --> 01:13:58.439
number two. It was January February. All right, they've missed

880
01:13:58.520 --> 01:14:05.239
out some weeks here. I think I made him. You

881
01:14:05.359 --> 01:14:07.640
know what I've just done? Do you know what I'm saying?

882
01:14:07.880 --> 01:14:10.720
What number it got to? I made a mistake. That

883
01:14:10.840 --> 01:14:12.640
was how many numbers it was? How many weeks it

884
01:14:12.760 --> 01:14:21.600
was at number one? Whoops? Sorry? So just like Starting

885
01:14:21.640 --> 01:14:26.199
Over was number one for one week? Shall I start over?

886
01:14:26.800 --> 01:14:30.319
Shall I start the whole recording again, So Imagine because

887
01:14:30.399 --> 01:14:35.279
I'm thinking, wait a minute, Imagine was number one, and

888
01:14:35.399 --> 01:14:38.760
side with Woman because I heard it a lot. That

889
01:14:38.920 --> 01:14:42.520
was January eighty one, tenth of January nineteen eighty one

890
01:14:42.960 --> 01:14:47.359
for four weeks, and then a Woman sent for February

891
01:14:47.800 --> 01:14:53.680
nineteen eighty one for two weeks. I love both those songs,

892
01:14:55.920 --> 01:15:04.319
Imagine probably more than Woman. Yeah, I loved to Imagine,

893
01:15:06.600 --> 01:15:09.039
but it was I don't know when it was first released.

894
01:15:09.079 --> 01:15:12.680
It was in the seventies, wasn't it. When did he

895
01:15:12.760 --> 01:15:22.760
first release Imagine? Imagine song wow nineteen seventy one, and

896
01:15:22.840 --> 01:15:27.000
it was from his album called John Lennon No Yeah,

897
01:15:27.159 --> 01:15:38.079
John Lennon, eleventh of October nineteen seventy one, So I

898
01:15:39.640 --> 01:15:42.560
very much would have heard it at some point in

899
01:15:42.640 --> 01:15:47.720
the seventies. I just don't remember now. This next song

900
01:15:49.479 --> 01:15:54.880
I remember very well, and it was Joe Dolcy Music

901
01:15:55.000 --> 01:15:59.359
Theater called shut Up Your Face. In fact, I can

902
01:15:59.439 --> 01:16:04.960
even right when I was in my early twenties, this

903
01:16:05.119 --> 01:16:08.199
isn't this is not nineteen eighty one, so not when

904
01:16:08.239 --> 01:16:12.760
I was in my early twenties. So i'd been ten

905
01:16:13.479 --> 01:16:30.279
back then, yeah, ten. So me and my friend Terry,

906
01:16:31.239 --> 01:16:33.920
this is an alert. Early nineties, we had this job

907
01:16:34.039 --> 01:16:41.079
where we'd basically be processing things, but labels on things whatever,

908
01:16:43.079 --> 01:16:49.359
and there was a this is just theare that one

909
01:16:49.399 --> 01:16:53.439
of the supervisors used to come around and write down

910
01:16:53.520 --> 01:16:56.000
the weights of everything like it's stand there for a

911
01:16:56.079 --> 01:16:58.760
couple of minutes while we did it. A box or

912
01:16:58.760 --> 01:17:03.920
a couple of boxes filled a color boxes up. And

913
01:17:04.039 --> 01:17:07.279
for some reason, when he talked, he just reminded both

914
01:17:07.319 --> 01:17:11.239
of us of Joe Dalcy when he talked in the

915
01:17:11.359 --> 01:17:17.000
music and if you've never seen the video and never

916
01:17:17.079 --> 01:17:22.840
seen the song, shut up your face, then it might

917
01:17:22.920 --> 01:17:25.199
not mean anything to you. But he was he had

918
01:17:25.239 --> 01:17:28.079
that kind of He spoke a bit like that, and

919
01:17:28.159 --> 01:17:30.159
for some reason me and him found it funny. I

920
01:17:30.239 --> 01:17:33.960
was a young man. I don't I'm not excusing myself,

921
01:17:34.079 --> 01:17:39.119
but there you have it. So what we did, and

922
01:17:39.159 --> 01:17:41.079
I don't know why, I don't know how it started.

923
01:17:42.159 --> 01:17:46.920
Either he or I would start it. So once this

924
01:17:47.199 --> 01:17:54.079
man was calling Dorian Dorius Dorius or whatever, and he

925
01:17:54.199 --> 01:17:57.920
was standing behind us, one of us would start a conversation,

926
01:18:01.159 --> 01:18:04.800
what's the matter you, that's my first one say. The

927
01:18:04.880 --> 01:18:11.199
other one would say, got no respect. But he's doing

928
01:18:11.319 --> 01:18:15.319
a sentence, so what's the matter you? And theye say

929
01:18:16.159 --> 01:18:19.319
mm hmm, you've got no respect? And then the other

930
01:18:19.319 --> 01:18:22.479
one would say what do you think you do? And

931
01:18:22.720 --> 01:18:25.079
then the other one, like me and Terry might say

932
01:18:27.319 --> 01:18:31.000
why do you look at? What's the man? Why you

933
01:18:31.159 --> 01:18:35.640
don't why you feel so bad? As what's a may you?

934
01:18:38.159 --> 01:18:41.399
Wait a second? I do it right over there? What's

935
01:18:41.479 --> 01:18:45.720
the matter? Hey? Got no respect? What do you think

936
01:18:45.800 --> 01:18:50.359
you do? Why you look so sad? It's not so bad?

937
01:18:50.920 --> 01:18:52.560
And then you want to say it's a nicer place.

938
01:18:53.039 --> 01:18:56.720
I'll shut up in your face, and that would We

939
01:18:56.840 --> 01:19:00.119
did it every single time, and he didn't notice, but

940
01:19:00.199 --> 01:19:01.960
we'd do it in a kind of covid way. It

941
01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:04.399
wouldn't just like what's the man? Are you?

942
01:19:04.920 --> 01:19:05.199
Heye?

943
01:19:05.520 --> 01:19:08.239
Got to no respect? Oh what do you think?

944
01:19:08.960 --> 01:19:09.159
Hey?

945
01:19:09.439 --> 01:19:13.159
Why are you look so bad? It's bad? It's a

946
01:19:13.279 --> 01:19:15.920
nice police? I should that be your place? That was

947
01:19:16.000 --> 01:19:21.039
the song and when there was a boy Hey the

948
01:19:21.159 --> 01:19:24.560
years ago, we probably did that as well, probably did

949
01:19:24.680 --> 01:19:26.840
more of the song, but I can't remember all of

950
01:19:26.880 --> 01:19:30.520
it now. It wasn't quite so fresh. It was fresh

951
01:19:30.640 --> 01:19:33.439
back then, you know, because you think it's nineteen eighty one.

952
01:19:33.960 --> 01:19:38.399
It was only ten years earlier that it was in

953
01:19:38.479 --> 01:19:40.640
the charts at number one for three weeks, so I

954
01:19:40.680 --> 01:19:44.840
can't think it was more fresher now another fifty five

955
01:19:44.960 --> 01:19:49.760
years gone past. But it made us giggle, and that's

956
01:19:49.800 --> 01:19:57.399
the main thing. Really. It's kind of borderline rude as well.

957
01:19:57.520 --> 01:20:02.159
But hey, I'm not responsible thoughts that version of me

958
01:20:03.119 --> 01:20:05.720
used to be like. I would never do that again,

959
01:20:06.239 --> 01:20:13.399
and I apologize in clearly Roxy Music Jealous Guy. Now,

960
01:20:13.479 --> 01:20:18.800
I didn't understand that. I mean, obviously, I'm gonna say obviously,

961
01:20:19.800 --> 01:20:21.680
I don't want to be rude to Roxy Music, but

962
01:20:22.359 --> 01:20:26.439
they clearly brought out that song off the back of

963
01:20:26.800 --> 01:20:34.079
John Lenon situation because it was literally okay, the month

964
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:43.520
after John Lennon Woman. Now, I'd never heard Jealous Guy before,

965
01:20:45.880 --> 01:20:48.279
and I didn't know it was a John Lennon song.

966
01:20:54.359 --> 01:20:58.680
Why Roxy Music couldn't just let them release John Lennon

967
01:20:58.920 --> 01:21:01.960
Jealous Guy, I don't know, but I'm carn of glad

968
01:21:02.000 --> 01:21:05.079
he didn't because, and I don't say this very often,

969
01:21:07.079 --> 01:21:17.760
I like cake, No, that wasn't it. Why don't Roxy

970
01:21:17.960 --> 01:21:26.920
Music's version of Jealousky was better than John Lennon's version,

971
01:21:27.399 --> 01:21:31.119
and John Lennon's version was great as well, but Roxy

972
01:21:31.239 --> 01:21:35.600
Music took it to a different level. My opinion obviously

973
01:21:35.800 --> 01:21:40.479
is my opinion, but so good. It's one. It is

974
01:21:40.520 --> 01:21:46.920
one of my favorite songs. Actually, now we're moving into

975
01:21:46.960 --> 01:21:53.119
a territory that is very much. Things seemed to start

976
01:21:53.239 --> 01:21:59.159
to change. This isn't the like nineteen eighty one period.

977
01:22:00.319 --> 01:22:02.479
It's weird. So you got through nineteen eighties. You've got

978
01:22:02.560 --> 01:22:10.960
all the Pink Floyd the Pretender's Specials, Kenny Rogers, Blondie,

979
01:22:11.680 --> 01:22:16.079
the jam people from the seventies were still kind of

980
01:22:16.600 --> 01:22:19.720
you know, breaking through to the eighties, the Electric Light

981
01:22:19.840 --> 01:22:27.760
Talk Yellow, David Bowie, Abba, Barbara Streiss and John Lennon.

982
01:22:27.880 --> 01:22:30.119
I know there's a reason for John Lennon being in charts,

983
01:22:30.199 --> 01:22:32.960
but you know, there's a lot of stuff from the

984
01:22:34.960 --> 01:22:41.560
eighties like that moved over from the seventies and then

985
01:22:41.640 --> 01:22:46.600
in the nineteen eighty one, the nineteen eighty one things

986
01:22:46.640 --> 01:22:52.600
started to change a bit. Shaking Stevens, although admittedly being

987
01:22:52.680 --> 01:23:00.640
around for a long time, became huge and Bucks Fitz

988
01:23:04.079 --> 01:23:06.760
they had Making Your Mind Up, which at number one

989
01:23:06.800 --> 01:23:09.920
for three weeks. They won the Eurovision Song Contest for

990
01:23:10.199 --> 01:23:15.479
England or UK. I'm not sure if it's Britain or

991
01:23:15.520 --> 01:23:18.880
England or the UK. I lose track. I only lived here.

992
01:23:19.399 --> 01:23:25.840
I don't know who they represented, and that was a

993
01:23:26.000 --> 01:23:28.199
huge hit because there was a point where they pulled

994
01:23:28.199 --> 01:23:34.800
their miniskirts off and I was ten at the time.

995
01:23:35.359 --> 01:23:37.199
I don't know why I'm really focusing on my age,

996
01:23:39.000 --> 01:23:43.439
but I didn't disapprove. That's what I'm saying. Shaking Stevens.

997
01:23:43.560 --> 01:23:48.640
I was my favorite singer. I feel a little a

998
01:23:48.720 --> 01:23:50.520
bit embarrassed because I thought I liked him when I

999
01:23:50.560 --> 01:23:53.960
was really little. But I was ten ten and a

1000
01:23:54.000 --> 01:23:57.960
half at this point, so I wasn't really little, which

1001
01:23:58.039 --> 01:24:05.760
doesn't make sense to me because I specifically remember walking

1002
01:24:05.840 --> 01:24:11.119
around the field reading the lyrics to Stand and Deliver.

1003
01:24:12.159 --> 01:24:18.079
But it was ninth of May nineteen eighty one. No,

1004
01:24:18.560 --> 01:24:22.399
that's fine actually, because I didn't Yeah, that would have

1005
01:24:22.439 --> 01:24:26.159
made sense nineteen eighty one. I started high school in

1006
01:24:26.319 --> 01:24:29.079
September nineteen eighty one. So I've got through it and

1007
01:24:29.079 --> 01:24:33.760
I've got the memories correct. Because I used to have

1008
01:24:35.439 --> 01:24:39.640
the as magazine called Looking Magazine. I get it every week,

1009
01:24:40.600 --> 01:24:43.039
me and my brothers will have We had two comics

1010
01:24:43.119 --> 01:24:50.399
each each week. I had Looking and The Dandy, So

1011
01:24:50.640 --> 01:24:55.520
Looking was kind of it was more like a TV magazine. Really,

1012
01:24:55.880 --> 01:24:58.600
it was very much to do with TV and the

1013
01:24:58.800 --> 01:25:02.199
charts music. That's what it was really about. It was

1014
01:25:02.319 --> 01:25:09.840
kind of, yeah, TV movies, charts, Yeah, it's brilliant. Yeah.

1015
01:25:09.840 --> 01:25:12.199
I don't know if it's still around, to be honest,

1016
01:25:12.319 --> 01:25:17.600
but it was really good, and The Dandy was the fun.

1017
01:25:19.039 --> 01:25:22.279
I think Looking was for knowledge. It was for keeping

1018
01:25:22.359 --> 01:25:27.560
up to date and knowing when the next new songs

1019
01:25:27.640 --> 01:25:31.359
coming out, when the next movie, the next TV show,

1020
01:25:31.760 --> 01:25:33.760
you know, like when the A Team's coming back up

1021
01:25:33.840 --> 01:25:36.920
on TV again and things like that, and they'd be

1022
01:25:37.039 --> 01:25:42.159
posters that we could get and I think I started

1023
01:25:42.560 --> 01:25:47.079
reading I was going to say ordering, but someone else

1024
01:25:47.159 --> 01:25:51.840
caught it for me, but it was I'm pretty sure

1025
01:25:54.079 --> 01:25:59.319
we were living in the road where the house dot

1026
01:25:59.359 --> 01:26:01.760
my name of grand moved into, so that I'd be

1027
01:26:01.960 --> 01:26:13.600
nineteen seventy eight and seventeen seventy eight sort of time.

1028
01:26:14.239 --> 01:26:17.600
So I started getting that then because I remember we

1029
01:26:17.720 --> 01:26:20.800
were sitting in front of the garden, which is a

1030
01:26:20.840 --> 01:26:22.880
little bit weird because we normally wouldn't do that, but

1031
01:26:22.960 --> 01:26:25.720
it must have been very hot, so we were sitting

1032
01:26:26.319 --> 01:26:31.199
because how it worked is he had the house. Do

1033
01:26:31.279 --> 01:26:33.760
you know the front of a house, and there's the

1034
01:26:33.800 --> 01:26:36.039
front door, so I'm going to get I'll give you

1035
01:26:36.159 --> 01:26:39.760
a description of the house where I lived. It was

1036
01:26:39.800 --> 01:26:43.920
my favorite house ever. And then my nanny Grandad lived

1037
01:26:43.920 --> 01:26:46.439
there as well for WM and then lived there from

1038
01:26:46.800 --> 01:26:59.279
nineteen seventy nine two, probably about two thousand and ten,

1039
01:27:03.439 --> 01:27:10.239
maybe two thousand and nine, eighty nine, seventy nine, eight

1040
01:27:10.640 --> 01:27:13.800
ninety nine two, so she was there thirty years at least.

1041
01:27:16.039 --> 01:27:20.960
And I loved that house, but it just wasn't big

1042
01:27:21.119 --> 01:27:24.520
enough for a new sprock. So my little brother.

1043
01:27:26.520 --> 01:27:26.920
Was born.

1044
01:27:30.319 --> 01:27:32.600
We you know, it was okay for a short while

1045
01:27:32.640 --> 01:27:34.960
because he could stay in their bedroom, in the parents'

1046
01:27:34.960 --> 01:27:39.520
bedroom while he was a baby. But you know, babies grow,

1047
01:27:39.640 --> 01:27:43.600
and there was solutions like, well, we need to find

1048
01:27:43.640 --> 01:27:50.640
a solution for this situation, and apparently my solution and

1049
01:27:50.800 --> 01:27:53.800
just getting rid of him wasn't a popular one that

1050
01:27:53.920 --> 01:27:58.000
was voting down, so you know, they kept the baby

1051
01:27:58.159 --> 01:28:03.319
and to a bigger house. I wanted to stay there.

1052
01:28:03.399 --> 01:28:07.359
I had my own bedroom. I liked that house. It's

1053
01:28:07.399 --> 01:28:12.000
the only house I've ever liked ever. I loved I

1054
01:28:12.159 --> 01:28:17.159
loved that house and it was the first nice place

1055
01:28:17.159 --> 01:28:22.399
I've ever lived, and I think because the memories of

1056
01:28:22.600 --> 01:28:26.560
being there for the first year and also my little

1057
01:28:26.600 --> 01:28:28.520
probably being born out it was a beautiful time as

1058
01:28:28.600 --> 01:28:31.079
well when he was running around. It's like having a

1059
01:28:31.119 --> 01:28:32.960
little puppy, isn't it. Really, When you get a baby,

1060
01:28:36.760 --> 01:28:44.279
it's very entertaining, and then the novelty wears off. I

1061
01:28:44.319 --> 01:28:48.880
shouldn't say stuff like that, but it is true. So

1062
01:28:49.399 --> 01:28:58.520
as a kid, it was true, okay, right, And then

1063
01:28:58.600 --> 01:29:02.720
when my nan and Granda living there a kind of

1064
01:29:04.479 --> 01:29:07.560
you know, from ninety one onwards, my name was living

1065
01:29:07.600 --> 01:29:12.920
there on our own, so I was visiting, and just

1066
01:29:13.039 --> 01:29:16.920
that house was in my life for forty years or

1067
01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:23.399
thirty thirty odd years. It is the only the only

1068
01:29:23.520 --> 01:29:26.840
place really, I mean, my FAD's house now has been

1069
01:29:27.319 --> 01:29:31.119
in He's lived at the same place for since what

1070
01:29:31.359 --> 01:29:38.760
prop early nineties, So that's a long time, isn't it. Yeah,

1071
01:29:38.920 --> 01:29:42.560
So he's that sort of ninety two thousand and two,

1072
01:29:42.680 --> 01:29:48.279
thirs ten, twenty thirty five years or whatever he's lived there.

1073
01:29:50.359 --> 01:29:55.880
Blimey though, four thirty three, very four, So I'm kind

1074
01:29:55.920 --> 01:29:57.880
of used to him. But I don't go very often,

1075
01:29:57.920 --> 01:30:01.239
but I'm used to that. I used to live in here. Now,

1076
01:30:01.880 --> 01:30:04.680
although I could really perhaps do something a little bit

1077
01:30:04.720 --> 01:30:12.479
better with the police, I don't quite know what I mean.

1078
01:30:12.560 --> 01:30:20.439
How do you improve perfection? No? But anyway, So looking

1079
01:30:20.439 --> 01:30:25.119
at the front of the house, there's a window downstairs,

1080
01:30:25.760 --> 01:30:28.399
a window upstairs, So the window downstairs on the right,

1081
01:30:30.000 --> 01:30:33.000
and there's a bit of grass on the right, and

1082
01:30:33.079 --> 01:30:37.439
then there's another house connected, so there was a semi

1083
01:30:37.560 --> 01:30:43.159
detached house. The other house connected was basically just the opposite,

1084
01:30:46.119 --> 01:30:49.279
although they did knock through so when be going there,

1085
01:30:49.359 --> 01:31:00.319
they knocked through the living room into the Yeah, they

1086
01:31:00.439 --> 01:31:05.079
knocked through the living room into the kitchen. And I

1087
01:31:05.159 --> 01:31:07.840
think they had an extension as well, so it's a

1088
01:31:07.920 --> 01:31:11.920
much bigger space inside their house. But then they had

1089
01:31:12.039 --> 01:31:16.479
less guard because the back garden wasn't big. Really, it

1090
01:31:16.600 --> 01:31:18.800
was a nice size. I mean, I'd be very happy

1091
01:31:18.880 --> 01:31:24.840
with size, a small or small one. I mean, small

1092
01:31:24.880 --> 01:31:27.079
ones better than no one at all, isn't it, you

1093
01:31:27.119 --> 01:31:32.479
know what I mean? So, but looking at the front,

1094
01:31:33.720 --> 01:31:36.560
the window downstairs was for the living room, for the

1095
01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:40.119
living room. The windows upstairs, the one above that was

1096
01:31:40.199 --> 01:31:43.720
for the what was my name's bedroom? It was originally

1097
01:31:46.640 --> 01:31:50.199
my dad's in his wife's bedroom, and then you got

1098
01:31:50.239 --> 01:31:55.279
the front doors had left upstairs from that. The first

1099
01:31:57.000 --> 01:32:02.560
window up there was my big room window, mine, mine,

1100
01:32:03.159 --> 01:32:09.600
my first ever bedroom, my first ever bedroom. I mean, wow,

1101
01:32:11.680 --> 01:32:17.880
I had it's my first as a child. I had

1102
01:32:18.159 --> 01:32:21.920
three bedrooms of my own. I was very lucky, actually

1103
01:32:23.279 --> 01:32:28.840
that I mean in a way, although I didn't you

1104
01:32:28.920 --> 01:32:32.199
know it was. I preferred the small house, but both

1105
01:32:32.279 --> 01:32:35.119
my older brothers were sharing a room. Wasn't really fair

1106
01:32:35.199 --> 01:32:40.239
on them. But I did realize at the time, although

1107
01:32:40.279 --> 01:32:43.760
it wasn't fair on them, my happiness was way more important.

1108
01:32:44.600 --> 01:32:48.159
I realized that when I was seven, I came to

1109
01:32:48.239 --> 01:32:52.880
that conclusion. And when I was eight, I fought, yeah,

1110
01:32:52.880 --> 01:32:57.439
there's too many of us. Now one of the older

1111
01:32:57.479 --> 01:33:01.000
ones needs to move out. Maybe if that both of

1112
01:33:01.039 --> 01:33:02.840
the older ones move out, then the baby can go

1113
01:33:02.920 --> 01:33:05.720
into the other room. Well, I can move into that

1114
01:33:05.840 --> 01:33:07.520
room because it's bigger, and you can move into the

1115
01:33:07.560 --> 01:33:13.560
small room. And we just don't mention the other brothers. Again,

1116
01:33:15.359 --> 01:33:17.239
but you know, I was eight years old. Logic wasn't

1117
01:33:17.840 --> 01:33:23.720
at the top. I just I don't think I was

1118
01:33:23.840 --> 01:33:26.880
built for a big family. I know some people say, well,

1119
01:33:26.920 --> 01:33:29.520
it's only four kids, it's not a big family. But

1120
01:33:29.600 --> 01:33:37.680
it was noisy, very very very noisy, very chaotic at times,

1121
01:33:39.079 --> 01:33:47.960
and I don't know, I kind of I didn't always

1122
01:33:48.119 --> 01:33:54.199
enjoy it, if I'm honest, I was very different from them.

1123
01:33:55.239 --> 01:33:59.880
We were all very different, really. I just I was

1124
01:34:00.239 --> 01:34:06.000
really into crowds and four kids two adults is a

1125
01:34:06.119 --> 01:34:14.239
crowd as a crowded space. I liked my space. I

1126
01:34:14.319 --> 01:34:17.119
remember my dad shouting up at the window once and

1127
01:34:19.800 --> 01:34:24.319
where are you, Jason? I said, I'm in my I'm

1128
01:34:24.439 --> 01:34:29.439
here in the bedroom. I said, why are you asking

1129
01:34:29.479 --> 01:34:31.479
me where I am? He said, what do you mean?

1130
01:34:32.319 --> 01:34:34.880
I said, you're literally standing below my window, shouting up

1131
01:34:34.880 --> 01:34:38.159
at my window asking me where I am. If you

1132
01:34:38.239 --> 01:34:41.319
didn't know where I was, then why would you be

1133
01:34:41.439 --> 01:34:44.279
looking at the window. You literally know I'm here, don't you.

1134
01:34:45.359 --> 01:34:47.720
He said, I can see you now. I said, no,

1135
01:34:47.880 --> 01:34:50.119
I mean before I was standing at the window, you

1136
01:34:50.199 --> 01:34:52.800
were showing up at the window. And he said, how

1137
01:34:52.880 --> 01:34:55.159
do you know I stand at the window showing up

1138
01:34:55.239 --> 01:34:57.319
If you weren't at the window looking down, how do

1139
01:34:57.359 --> 01:35:00.239
you know where I was? I said, because when I

1140
01:35:00.279 --> 01:35:04.279
got to the window, you were standing there. I said maybe.

1141
01:35:04.319 --> 01:35:06.199
When I got to the window, you were standing there,

1142
01:35:07.399 --> 01:35:11.479
and he said that one of us said it, And

1143
01:35:11.520 --> 01:35:16.520
then he said, should we just stop this now? I said,

1144
01:35:16.560 --> 01:35:20.560
what do you mean? He said, well, I don't know.

1145
01:35:20.600 --> 01:35:23.640
I'd just rather go back to talking about the music.

1146
01:35:25.439 --> 01:35:27.039
I mean, how did you even get on to talking

1147
01:35:27.079 --> 01:35:32.000
about rooms and you know, wishing you'd had a smaller family.

1148
01:35:32.600 --> 01:35:36.159
How do you get from Blondie and shaking Stevens and

1149
01:35:36.279 --> 01:35:40.079
Bucks Fizz and so that. I mean, you were talking

1150
01:35:40.079 --> 01:35:46.039
about walking around the field reading the lyrics from Looking magazine,

1151
01:35:46.760 --> 01:35:49.159
and you will confused whether or not that memory was

1152
01:35:49.239 --> 01:35:52.680
correct because you remember doing it around your like the

1153
01:35:52.720 --> 01:35:56.760
little school you went to, and you had to correct

1154
01:35:56.800 --> 01:35:59.760
and realize that everyone that's true, but it was true?

1155
01:36:00.159 --> 01:36:03.520
Is you weren't in high school yet? I said, okay,

1156
01:36:07.199 --> 01:36:08.039
I said, well what what?

1157
01:36:08.239 --> 01:36:08.279
What?

1158
01:36:08.560 --> 01:36:12.000
What were you getting at? He said, I don't I

1159
01:36:12.079 --> 01:36:16.000
thought we'd just maybe get back to the music. I said,

1160
01:36:16.039 --> 01:36:19.920
all about the description of the house, He said, do

1161
01:36:19.960 --> 01:36:22.159
you think anyone really wants to know the description of

1162
01:36:22.680 --> 01:36:25.159
a house that you lived in when you were eight

1163
01:36:25.319 --> 01:36:34.119
years old? I don't know, some people might, he said,

1164
01:36:34.399 --> 01:36:38.359
how many how many rooms was there? What bedrooms you mean,

1165
01:36:39.359 --> 01:36:49.520
he said, yeah, three, and downstairs? What was there? Living room? Kitchen, yeah, kitchen,

1166
01:36:51.119 --> 01:36:55.159
anything else or well, there's a bathroom upstairs and there's

1167
01:36:55.159 --> 01:36:58.399
a toilet downstairs. But the bathroom also had a toilet,

1168
01:36:59.640 --> 01:37:03.960
but the it was very small, not the toilet itself.

1169
01:37:04.439 --> 01:37:09.000
The toilet was normal size, but the room that the

1170
01:37:09.199 --> 01:37:15.800
toilet was in was quite small. In fact, it was

1171
01:37:17.399 --> 01:37:19.000
a little bit of a struggle to get in there

1172
01:37:19.000 --> 01:37:22.560
when I was sort of a bit bigger, got stuck once.

1173
01:37:24.520 --> 01:37:28.960
But I don't want to talk about it. Very hard

1174
01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:34.119
to maneuver because there's certain maneuvers during a toilet session

1175
01:37:34.800 --> 01:37:40.039
that needs a degree of movement and flexibility, and if

1176
01:37:40.079 --> 01:37:44.960
you're squashed against two walls, it's hard, you know, without

1177
01:37:45.000 --> 01:37:49.399
sort of going into details on tell me more, Tell

1178
01:37:49.439 --> 01:37:53.319
me more. Did you get very far? Tell me more?

1179
01:37:53.399 --> 01:37:58.760
Tell me more? Like did he have a car? Right? Okay,

1180
01:37:58.920 --> 01:38:04.800
back to the Adam and Heads Standard Deliver So I

1181
01:38:04.920 --> 01:38:15.760
remember seeing on morning TV, probably Saturday morning, there was

1182
01:38:16.119 --> 01:38:19.840
a I could not a documentary, but there was like

1183
01:38:19.960 --> 01:38:23.560
a short thing where they were talking about the behind

1184
01:38:23.760 --> 01:38:29.680
the scenes of making that video Standard deliver. I don't

1185
01:38:29.680 --> 01:38:33.199
if you remember the lyrics flatters. Then stand and deliver

1186
01:38:33.880 --> 01:38:37.720
your money or your life. Try and use a mirror,

1187
01:38:38.279 --> 01:38:43.000
not a bullet or a knife. And even though you,

1188
01:38:49.800 --> 01:38:53.199
even though you choose to blow, your conscience will be

1189
01:38:53.319 --> 01:39:00.680
mine or mine even though you choose the And know

1190
01:39:00.720 --> 01:39:05.279
what the word was I missed out actually to start

1191
01:39:05.319 --> 01:39:11.920
with would be oh oh ho oh oh hoo. Do

1192
01:39:14.199 --> 01:39:17.479
I know as a don't you? Okay? A different song?

1193
01:39:19.600 --> 01:39:26.039
I remember this one Smoky Robinson, Being with you? Is

1194
01:39:26.079 --> 01:39:29.600
that the one? And okay what they say about me?

1195
01:39:29.960 --> 01:39:35.319
And okay, what did do? And ogive about anything else

1196
01:39:35.479 --> 01:39:40.039
but being with you? Being with you? People to say

1197
01:39:40.840 --> 01:39:42.760
day always do dad.

1198
01:39:44.239 --> 01:39:44.479
For you.

1199
01:39:46.039 --> 01:39:50.159
I remember he was walking on the beach, Smoky Robinson

1200
01:39:50.600 --> 01:39:55.920
with his really soft voice, walking on the beach, maybe

1201
01:39:55.960 --> 01:39:58.079
bare for it. I don't know. I wasn't looking at

1202
01:39:58.119 --> 01:40:00.359
his feet, I wasn't looking at any boy body of

1203
01:40:00.399 --> 01:40:02.760
the saying that I was particularly focused on his feet.

1204
01:40:03.159 --> 01:40:09.840
But I do remember it was a beach and it

1205
01:40:09.960 --> 01:40:12.640
was at number one for two weeks, and I liked

1206
01:40:12.680 --> 01:40:19.560
that song. Now, I don't remember Michael Jackson being number

1207
01:40:19.640 --> 01:40:25.800
one with one Day in Your Life because, from the

1208
01:40:25.880 --> 01:40:28.720
looks of it, Michael Jackson did not have a number

1209
01:40:28.760 --> 01:40:32.960
one during nineteen eighty the nineteen eighty one, twenty seventh

1210
01:40:33.000 --> 01:40:40.720
of June he had worday your life. So I'm surprised

1211
01:40:40.760 --> 01:40:44.159
at that. Why was that? Just the reason I'm surprised

1212
01:40:44.399 --> 01:40:56.399
is because he had Off the Wall, which was either

1213
01:40:56.479 --> 01:40:59.399
I think it was seventy nine, and One Day in

1214
01:40:59.439 --> 01:41:06.119
your Life was not on Off the Wall? So where

1215
01:41:06.479 --> 01:41:11.079
did one Day in your Life? It was released in

1216
01:41:11.239 --> 01:41:15.279
ninety from the album One Day in Your Life nineteen

1217
01:41:15.319 --> 01:41:26.600
eighty one. Really, so I'm confused. So I'm looking at

1218
01:41:26.680 --> 01:41:28.680
One Day in Your Life as a song recorded by

1219
01:41:28.720 --> 01:41:33.000
American singer Mark Jackson for his nineteen seventy five album

1220
01:41:33.199 --> 01:41:37.640
Forever Michael, which I like. That album's a great album.

1221
01:41:39.199 --> 01:41:42.920
Lyrics by Rene Armond was issued as a single in

1222
01:41:43.000 --> 01:41:49.680
the UK nineteen seventy five, and later released March twentieth,

1223
01:41:49.800 --> 01:41:54.079
nineteen eighty one as a single from the compilation album

1224
01:41:54.199 --> 01:41:57.640
for One Day in Your Life. Due to the commercial

1225
01:41:58.159 --> 01:42:03.840
interest that generates from theselves at Jackson's hit nineteen seventy

1226
01:42:04.439 --> 01:42:13.079
nine album Off the Wall. Okay. While the modest US,

1227
01:42:13.239 --> 01:42:19.159
it was bigger hit in the UK. It became a

1228
01:42:19.279 --> 01:42:23.960
sixth best seller single of nineteen eighty one. That's kind

1229
01:42:24.000 --> 01:42:26.640
of weird, not not weird. Just if I think of

1230
01:42:26.800 --> 01:42:32.800
nineteen eighty one, I thought that he released Thriller and

1231
01:42:32.880 --> 01:42:43.800
maybe it was later on then Shaking Stevens Julie Will Julie.

1232
01:42:44.399 --> 01:42:47.239
I love Shaking Stephens. I used to dance like Shaking

1233
01:42:47.319 --> 01:42:50.640
Stephens or as I like. I used to like it

1234
01:42:50.720 --> 01:42:52.640
to say that other if like I said it words

1235
01:42:53.359 --> 01:42:55.800
at the time, I used to decide to tell people

1236
01:42:56.439 --> 01:43:01.880
Shaking Stevens likes to dance like me craft work of

1237
01:43:02.000 --> 01:43:05.159
the model. Now I don't remember this sort of at

1238
01:43:05.199 --> 01:43:11.560
the time. Great song shoes a model and she's looking good.

1239
01:43:12.239 --> 01:43:18.359
Do Do Do Do? Do Do Do? I love that song.

1240
01:43:19.279 --> 01:43:24.199
They're the type of songs that I just don't hear anywhere.

1241
01:43:24.279 --> 01:43:27.600
I don't you know, I kind of forget about them,

1242
01:43:28.000 --> 01:43:30.359
and they want to hear them. I think, Wow, I

1243
01:43:30.520 --> 01:43:38.800
love that song the jam town called Alice Malice rather sorry,

1244
01:43:40.359 --> 01:43:43.880
and I like that as well as good old type fit.

1245
01:43:46.039 --> 01:43:51.239
Does anyone remember this one in the jungle the Jungle

1246
01:43:51.720 --> 01:43:58.079
the line sleeves to know the Jungle have a good

1247
01:43:58.119 --> 01:44:01.079
song like that number three weeks it was number one.

1248
01:44:04.800 --> 01:44:07.399
I'm just going to go down Paul McCartney and Stevie

1249
01:44:07.479 --> 01:44:14.319
Wonder Ebony and Ivory twenty fourth of April nineteen eighty two. Wow.

1250
01:44:17.239 --> 01:44:23.560
Now I would have been eleven years old. So I

1251
01:44:23.800 --> 01:44:32.199
was in the first year of high school. Ib Bernie

1252
01:44:33.319 --> 01:44:39.439
and for So Yeah, I was number one for three weeks.

1253
01:44:39.680 --> 01:44:46.239
I loved that song. I used to sing the lyrics.

1254
01:44:47.239 --> 01:44:50.880
It's something I used to do in high school. Not

1255
01:44:51.000 --> 01:44:56.600
all the time, but sometimes I need to be on

1256
01:44:56.680 --> 01:45:02.159
my own and I'd walk around the field, the playfield,

1257
01:45:03.000 --> 01:45:06.279
and I would sing to myself and i'd sing the

1258
01:45:06.399 --> 01:45:12.079
songs like Ebony and Ivory, or i'd sing madness songs,

1259
01:45:12.279 --> 01:45:16.039
or you know, different songs. But that was one of

1260
01:45:16.119 --> 01:45:22.479
my favorite songs at the time. Nicole a little piece.

1261
01:45:22.560 --> 01:45:26.159
I don't know that one, Madness how so fun. I

1262
01:45:26.359 --> 01:45:29.119
got to number one for two weeks. Goodie two Shoes,

1263
01:45:29.239 --> 01:45:32.000
Adam and Heir or no Adam ant or Adam and

1264
01:45:32.119 --> 01:45:40.359
Ants Captain Sensible happy talk, happy talking, talking, happy talk,

1265
01:45:40.680 --> 01:45:44.359
talk about things you like to do. Love that song.

1266
01:45:46.720 --> 01:45:50.439
I've never been to me, Charlene, that's a great song

1267
01:45:50.520 --> 01:45:53.520
as well. Wow, I forgot about that one. And then

1268
01:45:53.600 --> 01:45:58.960
of course Fame. I want to Live Forever and that

1269
01:45:59.159 --> 01:46:04.159
was July night A two Dex's Midnight Runners, Come On

1270
01:46:04.520 --> 01:46:11.560
Eileen and number four. That was number one for four

1271
01:46:11.600 --> 01:46:16.560
weeks August eighty two. And yeah, I remember that that

1272
01:46:16.720 --> 01:46:20.359
was a really popular song during my disco years. We're

1273
01:46:20.359 --> 01:46:24.359
not a DJ and Survivor was it because you just

1274
01:46:24.439 --> 01:46:26.520
played this at the beginning that there's the first few

1275
01:46:27.119 --> 01:46:29.560
chords of the song do do Do Do Do Do

1276
01:46:29.800 --> 01:46:32.840
Do and with no, I just like do do do

1277

1278
01:46:38.319 --> 01:46:42.880
do do do do do do do do do do? Okay,

1279
01:46:43.319 --> 01:46:46.560
it sounded it sounded kind of right to me when

1280
01:46:46.560 --> 01:46:50.600
I first started singing it. I had the Tiger my Survivor.

1281
01:46:51.079 --> 01:46:53.640
Great song and that was like Rockie, wasn't it.

1282
01:46:54.279 --> 01:46:55.359
I have the tag.

1283
01:46:57.840 --> 01:47:00.399
That was number one for four weeks song yes, in

1284
01:47:00.560 --> 01:47:06.079
that was because of the Rocky movie. Oh this is

1285
01:47:06.119 --> 01:47:09.520
another song that I don't hear very often past the

1286
01:47:09.680 --> 01:47:16.239
Ducci the musical Youth nineteen eighty two October and I

1287
01:47:16.319 --> 01:47:18.600
still to this day do not know what they're talking

1288
01:47:18.600 --> 01:47:25.279
about or what they were saying, like is like Eastern Naration,

1289
01:47:26.119 --> 01:47:30.399
their Vorisian wherever. I was like, what I love them?

1290
01:47:32.119 --> 01:47:39.840
I actually yeah, Wow. I bought their album, one of

1291
01:47:39.920 --> 01:47:45.119
the first ever albums I bought. I bought that album,

1292
01:47:45.439 --> 01:47:50.920
Musical Youth. I did, I did, I did, and I

1293
01:47:51.079 --> 01:47:52.640
listened to all of it. I liked all these songs.

1294
01:47:56.800 --> 01:48:00.319
Culture Club Do You Really Want to Hurt Me? Culture

1295
01:48:00.359 --> 01:48:01.960
Club was a weird one because I loved all that

1296
01:48:02.039 --> 01:48:05.840
stuff as well. Nineteen eighty two, twenty third of October.

1297
01:48:08.039 --> 01:48:09.640
I don't know if it's their first song, but it's

1298
01:48:09.680 --> 01:48:11.680
the first song to get to number one according to this.

1299
01:48:13.760 --> 01:48:13.920
Now.

1300
01:48:14.840 --> 01:48:20.880
I remember we was on holiday in Whales and we

1301
01:48:20.960 --> 01:48:23.680
were watching the TV black and white TV. We had

1302
01:48:23.720 --> 01:48:28.760
this little portable thing running off a generator and we're

1303
01:48:28.760 --> 01:48:31.640
all sitting around. Maybe there's a campfire. I don't know

1304
01:48:36.319 --> 01:48:38.720
if that was Probably during the day. There was summer,

1305
01:48:38.760 --> 01:48:40.439
so that might have been in the evening. It's not

1306
01:48:40.520 --> 01:48:43.159
really relevant, is it to the story. We need to

1307
01:48:43.239 --> 01:48:46.640
know precisely what tam it was and what is everyone wearing,

1308
01:48:48.279 --> 01:48:54.039
and who had the most regular bowel movement at that time. No,

1309
01:48:54.199 --> 01:49:01.159
we don't need any information. I there a conversation right

1310
01:49:01.920 --> 01:49:08.039
about boy George, because boy George was so pretty. If

1311
01:49:08.079 --> 01:49:13.279
you could look back, he was a very attractive person.

1312
01:49:17.640 --> 01:49:20.720
Beautiful eyes or you know, just saying it's just I

1313
01:49:20.760 --> 01:49:28.720
would say factual. He's very I loved him. Anyway. We

1314
01:49:28.800 --> 01:49:34.039
were having this argument between us, so the five of

1315
01:49:34.119 --> 01:49:41.920
us is what is there? Me my oldest brother, my

1316
01:49:42.039 --> 01:49:47.239
other brother was also older than me, the father, the mother,

1317
01:49:47.720 --> 01:49:53.520
and we're all saying arguing between us, like is it

1318
01:49:53.600 --> 01:49:55.399
a boy or is it a girl? Is it a

1319
01:49:55.520 --> 01:50:00.600
man or is it a woman? You know, my little brother,

1320
01:50:00.720 --> 01:50:04.920
who is I think it was just like I want

1321
01:50:04.960 --> 01:50:07.399
to do a pooh, I need a pooh because it

1322
01:50:07.479 --> 01:50:10.680
was only forty years old, wasn't he It wasn't too

1323
01:50:10.760 --> 01:50:19.600
interested in culture club. I'm pretty sure one of us,

1324
01:50:20.800 --> 01:50:24.359
maybe me, I don't know, maybe someone else said maybe

1325
01:50:24.399 --> 01:50:29.279
it's in the name boy George. But it lips nag

1326
01:50:29.359 --> 01:50:33.840
it girl. She looks nag it girl. It was confusing

1327
01:50:33.880 --> 01:50:43.399
because back then and his name was boy George, it

1328
01:50:43.600 --> 01:50:47.640
was kind of it was kind of it's weird, but

1329
01:50:48.960 --> 01:50:56.119
oh he was so gorgeous. He's still doing good. I've

1330
01:50:56.159 --> 01:50:59.640
seen him, well, not recent but like in recent years

1331
01:50:59.720 --> 01:51:06.880
on some of these music shows that he does where

1332
01:51:06.960 --> 01:51:10.359
he's a judge and he just it seems to be ageless.

1333
01:51:12.560 --> 01:51:17.800
I'd say a number one was beautiful and as adamant.

1334
01:51:21.079 --> 01:51:24.760
I don't honestly, he just he will all let make up,

1335
01:51:24.840 --> 01:51:27.479
but he didn't need because that was part of his act,

1336
01:51:27.600 --> 01:51:34.079
wasn't it. But he was super handsome, actually pretty, he

1337
01:51:34.319 --> 01:51:38.840
was pretty anyway. I don't know why I'm talking about

1338
01:51:38.840 --> 01:51:42.199
that beats, yeah, because they were kind of the same

1339
01:51:42.319 --> 01:51:47.439
kind of period when they I suppose Eddie Grant had

1340
01:51:47.720 --> 01:51:51.079
or on a d wasn't that also on the Beach?

1341
01:51:52.680 --> 01:51:56.199
That was a number one for three weeks? The jam

1342
01:51:56.560 --> 01:52:03.199
beat Surrender don't remember that one? Rene and Rinato eighteen

1343
01:52:03.279 --> 01:52:08.359
for December eighty two, four weeks. I remember this one.

1344
01:52:09.039 --> 01:52:10.720
I'm not going to sing it, but it was like

1345
01:52:11.760 --> 01:52:18.000
save your love, my darling, save your lor and it

1346
01:52:18.119 --> 01:52:24.119
was great. So that was a two. I could go on.

1347
01:52:24.159 --> 01:52:26.319
I'm going to do a three because eighty three was

1348
01:52:26.399 --> 01:52:30.960
a big year. This is probably when I got into

1349
01:52:31.039 --> 01:52:35.960
my favorite songs. And it's not just because Michael Jackson

1350
01:52:36.079 --> 01:52:39.640
was in the chart, but some of my top songs

1351
01:52:40.279 --> 01:52:44.920
I would say, oh maybe not, but all of my

1352
01:52:45.439 --> 01:52:48.279
songs I liked got to number one. But you've got

1353
01:52:48.319 --> 01:52:51.920
Phil Collins. You can't hurry love men, it work down

1354
01:52:52.039 --> 01:52:56.720
Under and well it's okay, two of my favorite songs

1355
01:52:57.239 --> 01:53:01.239
that I remember of that year because that's when I

1356
01:53:01.279 --> 01:53:04.800
went to hospital. I had my appendix out Men at

1357
01:53:04.880 --> 01:53:09.640
Work down Under and Bonnie Tyler Totler Goods at the Heart.

1358
01:53:11.159 --> 01:53:14.079
Both those songs were my favorite songs at the time,

1359
01:53:15.840 --> 01:53:19.279
so I had my appendix out. Probably I don't know,

1360
01:53:19.840 --> 01:53:28.239
Summer eighty three my moves, maybe like June May, June May.

1361
01:53:30.159 --> 01:53:33.119
Maybe I don't know. I was still at school. God,

1362
01:53:33.760 --> 01:53:37.000
that would have absolutely that I'd have been distraught if

1363
01:53:37.039 --> 01:53:41.279
I'd had to have that time in hospital and then

1364
01:53:41.359 --> 01:53:46.039
that time recovering and didn't get to lose any school time,

1365
01:53:46.640 --> 01:53:50.039
that would have been Oh. Luckily I did. I managed

1366
01:53:50.039 --> 01:53:51.800
to lose some time at school, so that was good.

1367
01:53:57.239 --> 01:54:02.119
Ca Goo Goo catch a Goo Goo too, Shy Michael Jackson,

1368
01:54:02.159 --> 01:54:07.199
Billy Jean got to number one. Duranne, Duranne? Is this

1369
01:54:07.359 --> 01:54:13.880
something I should know? Oh? But this is there something

1370
01:54:14.800 --> 01:54:18.359
I should know? Is it something I should know? Is

1371
01:54:18.439 --> 01:54:22.199
there something oh I should know? See? I never give up.

1372
01:54:23.119 --> 01:54:30.800
David Barry, Let's dance, Let's dance. Span that buddy true,

1373
01:54:33.279 --> 01:54:41.439
So I would say every breath you take. New edition

1374
01:54:41.640 --> 01:54:46.079
Candy Girl I like that song. Every breath you Take

1375
01:54:46.199 --> 01:54:51.560
was good Rod Stuart Paul Young wherever I lay my

1376
01:54:51.720 --> 01:54:59.279
hat that this is weird because something's missing and I'm

1377
01:54:59.319 --> 01:55:03.039
going to skip head So Culture Club become a comedian.

1378
01:55:03.520 --> 01:55:08.000
Red red Wine year be forty. I remember listening to

1379
01:55:08.119 --> 01:55:12.840
Red red Wine and that was one of my favorite

1380
01:55:12.920 --> 01:55:17.399
songs of that year as well, But I don't remember

1381
01:55:17.439 --> 01:55:21.079
that little rapping bit at the end. Yeah, that's the

1382
01:55:21.239 --> 01:55:27.479
ice cream van. It's been like a hurricane out there,

1383
01:55:27.600 --> 01:55:38.800
half a hurricane today. That was very loud. Yeah, that

1384
01:55:38.880 --> 01:55:42.760
was a very loud ice cream van. It's almost like

1385
01:55:42.880 --> 01:55:50.479
it was inside the building. Yeah, Poor Young Love, Poor

1386
01:55:50.560 --> 01:55:57.039
Young ub forty. Red red Wine obviously the rolling roller

1387
01:55:57.359 --> 01:56:00.960
skating rink that we had, and it was a size

1388
01:56:01.039 --> 01:56:03.239
it wasn't like a size of a small garden. It

1389
01:56:03.359 --> 01:56:06.439
wasn't like a big thing. It was brilliant. Because there

1390
01:56:06.560 --> 01:56:10.039
was very very little to do where I lived, so

1391
01:56:10.159 --> 01:56:13.439
we used to go there, and I remember listening to

1392
01:56:13.640 --> 01:56:16.960
Red red Wine because they'd played songs, hit songs, probably

1393
01:56:17.119 --> 01:56:20.479
pulled a jukebox or maybe I don't know from where,

1394
01:56:20.640 --> 01:56:22.640
maybe it was from the radio, and they play that

1395
01:56:23.520 --> 01:56:32.399
loudspeakers and sometimes I'd think that I was. There was

1396
01:56:32.439 --> 01:56:35.600
a mixture of characters that I'd like to play. One

1397
01:56:35.840 --> 01:56:42.079
was Inspector Cluso, but then there was also mixed in

1398
01:56:42.520 --> 01:56:52.119
with Frank Spencer, like clumsy, accillent, prone and doing weird things.

1399
01:56:52.199 --> 01:56:55.680
So I'd end up roller skating around the wrong way

1400
01:56:55.720 --> 01:56:58.039
because there was one way to skate, and I'd go

1401
01:56:58.159 --> 01:57:04.239
round the wrong way and be screaming out and basically

1402
01:57:06.800 --> 01:57:12.199
only amusing myself. No one else found it interesting or humorous.

1403
01:57:12.359 --> 01:57:14.680
I was just but I thought it was brilliant, but

1404
01:57:14.840 --> 01:57:22.039
unfortunately I used to lose control and yeah, but it was.

1405
01:57:22.560 --> 01:57:25.880
It was fun for me, not for anyone else, but

1406
01:57:26.039 --> 01:57:30.239
for me. And you know what they did. They got

1407
01:57:30.399 --> 01:57:34.199
rid of I say they the town or whoever got

1408
01:57:34.279 --> 01:57:37.039
rid of the roll of the roller skating disc thing

1409
01:57:38.039 --> 01:57:41.039
like a disco, really, but they got rid of it

1410
01:57:41.159 --> 01:57:43.960
was outside I think my fin maybe it did have

1411
01:57:44.039 --> 01:57:46.520
a cover on it. I don't know. They got rid

1412
01:57:46.560 --> 01:57:51.520
of it and they put in like a dustbin. They

1413
01:57:51.720 --> 01:57:55.760
replaced it with some kind of a place for dustbins.

1414
01:58:00.479 --> 01:58:02.479
It really, and it was one of the best places

1415
01:58:02.560 --> 01:58:10.159
to go in town the kids, and was the first

1416
01:58:10.199 --> 01:58:14.760
time I'd never roller skated and the roller skates were old.

1417
01:58:16.079 --> 01:58:19.000
Never had any anyone that could fit me. I'd know

1418
01:58:19.840 --> 01:58:24.880
my feet were extra big out like clown's feet. That's

1419
01:58:24.920 --> 01:58:30.000
why I discovered I was never able to swim above water,

1420
01:58:30.199 --> 01:58:33.000
but underwater I could get from one end to the

1421
01:58:33.119 --> 01:58:37.279
other in like three seconds because of my big feet.

1422
01:58:38.880 --> 01:58:41.239
I just I used to do the Man from Atlantis

1423
01:58:41.319 --> 01:58:45.720
started swimming, well, I just basically looked like an eel,

1424
01:58:45.880 --> 01:58:49.760
just flapping. And I if you ever seen Man from Atlantis,

1425
01:58:51.640 --> 01:58:56.520
just google it or YouTube like Man from Atlantis swimming

1426
01:58:56.840 --> 01:58:58.760
and you see how he swims. That's how I used

1427
01:58:58.760 --> 01:59:06.119
to swim. It was. Yeah, it's very I'm surprised I

1428
01:59:06.159 --> 01:59:09.479
didn't hurt myself, although sometimes I did. Used to bang

1429
01:59:10.119 --> 01:59:13.439
myself on the on the face because I could always

1430
01:59:13.520 --> 01:59:17.640
see when I was getting to the end. But I

1431
01:59:17.760 --> 01:59:21.840
used to do complete lengths underwater, but I struggled to

1432
01:59:21.880 --> 01:59:28.000
do half a length on top of the water. Billy

1433
01:59:28.079 --> 01:59:32.319
Joel Uptown Girl, I remember that the Flying Pickets. No,

1434
01:59:32.640 --> 01:59:35.680
I'm not saying I remember Uptown Girl like I forgot

1435
01:59:35.760 --> 01:59:39.439
all about that song. No, I mean I remember, like

1436
01:59:39.600 --> 01:59:43.239
the original when it came out, The Flying Pickets. I

1437
01:59:43.600 --> 01:59:45.840
liked this This was a number one for five weeks,

1438
01:59:46.039 --> 01:59:50.760
and I remember because I think it was number one

1439
01:59:50.760 --> 02:00:00.600
at Christmas. Yeah, it was. And it was basically a

1440
02:00:00.680 --> 02:00:04.119
cappella so they all sung together, but there's no music.

1441
02:00:05.399 --> 02:00:08.359
Do do Do Do Do Do Do Do? So one

1442
02:00:08.520 --> 02:00:10.560
was ay do do do do Do Do do do,

1443
02:00:10.840 --> 02:00:13.439
But then someone wants to go ooh ooh.

1444
02:00:14.119 --> 02:00:17.840
Someone else would be singing la la la la la

1445
02:00:17.920 --> 02:00:23.680
la la, and another person would go oh, and together

1446
02:00:24.479 --> 02:00:27.880
it sounded ridiculous individually, but together it sounded.

1447
02:00:29.039 --> 02:00:29.159
Well.

1448
02:00:29.159 --> 02:00:31.560
It's still all sounded ridiculous if it was me singing,

1449
02:00:31.640 --> 02:00:37.119
but it sounded good with them doing it. Paul McCartney

1450
02:00:37.239 --> 02:00:44.159
Pipes a Piece, nineteen eighty four. See that doesn't make

1451
02:00:44.239 --> 02:00:49.600
sense to me, right. All I can imagine is pipes

1452
02:00:49.640 --> 02:00:53.720
are piece. It was released at Christmas because it was

1453
02:00:53.720 --> 02:00:57.760
a Christmas song. It was based on the football match

1454
02:00:57.880 --> 02:01:01.479
between the Germans and the English. I think it was

1455
02:01:01.520 --> 02:01:05.640
the Germans in English during the First World War and

1456
02:01:05.920 --> 02:01:08.800
Christmas Day they kind of had a truce and played

1457
02:01:08.840 --> 02:01:12.359
football and showed each other pictures of their families. I

1458
02:01:12.479 --> 02:01:16.720
don't know how realistic that was, but and then they

1459
02:01:16.760 --> 02:01:20.560
went back to their trenches and I think someone accidentally

1460
02:01:20.840 --> 02:01:25.680
had someone else's picture there of their wife for wow.

1461
02:01:26.319 --> 02:01:30.000
I don't know if that's true. I added that it

1462
02:01:30.159 --> 02:01:33.479
was a great I really liked that song, but it

1463
02:01:33.520 --> 02:01:35.960
didn't get to number one till the fourteenth of January

1464
02:01:36.119 --> 02:01:42.560
eighty four, so I'm guessing. Yeah, I'm guessing it was

1465
02:01:42.680 --> 02:01:47.119
like number two or something at Christmas. Frankie goes to

1466
02:01:47.199 --> 02:01:51.439
Hollywood nineteen eighty four. Now my memory of this is,

1467
02:01:53.079 --> 02:01:59.439
first of all, it was spent very very controversial, very controversial.

1468
02:02:01.800 --> 02:02:02.199
In my.

1469
02:02:03.800 --> 02:02:10.239
Childhood. I would say, probably the most controversial song during

1470
02:02:10.279 --> 02:02:16.079
that period that I could remember. Yeah, I would say that.

1471
02:02:16.720 --> 02:02:19.199
So it was January nineteen eighty four, so I was thirteen,

1472
02:02:21.439 --> 02:02:25.199
and what I remember there was one particular my stepm

1473
02:02:25.479 --> 02:02:31.560
was singing it because Radio one banned it, and as

1474
02:02:31.600 --> 02:02:34.760
soon as We're ready on banned it, it got to

1475
02:02:34.880 --> 02:02:38.520
number one. It was number one for five weeks. They

1476
02:02:38.560 --> 02:02:41.800
wouldn't even they wouldn't play the video on Top of

1477
02:02:41.840 --> 02:02:44.600
the Pops. In fact, I don't think they'd even played

1478
02:02:44.600 --> 02:02:50.239
the song on Top of the Pops because that was

1479
02:02:50.359 --> 02:02:55.039
like BBC Radio One with BBC, so I'm not quite

1480
02:02:55.079 --> 02:02:59.600
sure how they worked around it. But I did see

1481
02:02:59.600 --> 02:03:06.159
the video, so I saw it somewhere. I just remember

1482
02:03:06.399 --> 02:03:13.680
seeing my stepm I'm dancing around singing or holding a

1483
02:03:13.760 --> 02:03:15.920
spatula or something like. He was cooking in the kitchen

1484
02:03:16.279 --> 02:03:19.520
and she was like singing, relaxed, don't do d on it.

1485
02:03:19.600 --> 02:03:21.840
She was like dancing with a song. Because it was

1486
02:03:21.920 --> 02:03:24.039
a huge hit. I mean, it was the biggest song

1487
02:03:25.079 --> 02:03:29.039
possibly in the Western world at the time. I'm not

1488
02:03:29.119 --> 02:03:32.479
sure how popular it was in the Middle East, I

1489
02:03:32.520 --> 02:03:36.199
don't know, but it definitely Russia, but I don't know

1490
02:03:36.239 --> 02:03:41.319
if it really hit the charts in Russia or in Korea,

1491
02:03:41.399 --> 02:03:45.279
I don't know, or China, I'm not sure, but in ending,

1492
02:03:45.399 --> 02:03:50.680
like the Western sphere, it was a very big song.

1493
02:03:51.680 --> 02:03:58.399
And there is one bit where she was singing and

1494
02:03:58.479 --> 02:04:03.680
she was dancing and she just stopped just as they said, relaxed,

1495
02:04:03.760 --> 02:04:07.159
don't do it. When you're relaxed, don't do it, and

1496
02:04:07.239 --> 02:04:10.159
they're like when you want to come, and she just

1497
02:04:10.399 --> 02:04:16.319
stopped and stood there as a statue. And I was thinking,

1498
02:04:16.399 --> 02:04:20.640
I wonder, do you know what the song's about, Mummy dearest?

1499
02:04:20.760 --> 02:04:24.600
Do you do you know? Because I knew, I kind

1500
02:04:24.640 --> 02:04:30.960
of knew. Someone told me a friend a ready in

1501
02:04:31.000 --> 02:04:32.960
a magazine. No, I didn't. I didn't know what it

1502
02:04:33.079 --> 02:04:38.159
was about. I knew what the I did. I kind

1503
02:04:38.199 --> 02:04:44.279
of did. I didn't completely, to be honest, I was

1504
02:04:44.399 --> 02:04:49.720
thirteen years old. I kind of knew, but I remember thinking,

1505
02:04:50.239 --> 02:04:52.079
I don't think she knows what it is. The songs

1506
02:04:52.119 --> 02:04:58.720
about ninety nine red balloons Nina ninety nine? Did she

1507
02:04:58.840 --> 02:05:03.039
do that differently? Whiche did in German? Didn't she were

1508
02:05:03.079 --> 02:05:07.960
part of the sign in German? Or body she compang

1509
02:05:08.159 --> 02:05:15.079
or porkin honey or hanging upon? I don't know. Maybe

1510
02:05:15.119 --> 02:05:18.159
it was a different language. And that was the number

1511
02:05:18.159 --> 02:05:23.199
one for three weeks. Lana Richie, Hello, Yeah, that was

1512
02:05:25.880 --> 02:05:31.319
do you know what? There was two songs and both

1513
02:05:31.319 --> 02:05:36.560
of them were from nineteen eighty four, which men I

1514
02:05:36.560 --> 02:05:39.720
don't want as to say all men, but some males

1515
02:05:40.840 --> 02:05:51.119
used as in a way to be romantic to the ladies,

1516
02:05:53.079 --> 02:05:57.479
some ladies, some men and some ladies. And one of

1517
02:05:57.560 --> 02:06:04.760
those was on a telephone, Hello is me, like you know,

1518
02:06:04.800 --> 02:06:09.760
with someone answered the phone they call Hello. And another

1519
02:06:09.800 --> 02:06:14.359
one was Stevie Wonder. I just called it say I

1520
02:06:14.439 --> 02:06:18.600
love you. You know. It's like I can't say cheesy,

1521
02:06:18.880 --> 02:06:20.439
but I think I don't know if it worked. I

1522
02:06:20.479 --> 02:06:23.560
don't know. I tried it in later years but didn't work.

1523
02:06:24.079 --> 02:06:27.640
I tried it once at school at the time, like

1524
02:06:27.680 --> 02:06:32.600
in nineteen eighty four, but just got me detention. Apparently,

1525
02:06:33.359 --> 02:06:38.520
shouldn't be talking to the teacher like that inappropriate Lanochie, Hello,

1526
02:06:39.119 --> 02:06:45.399
Durandre and the reflex whe whem, wake me up before

1527
02:06:45.439 --> 02:06:49.920
you go go. So I was definitely working at this

1528
02:06:50.079 --> 02:07:03.680
point in the the bakery in the restaurant play yeah,

1529
02:07:03.800 --> 02:07:06.640
So it was definitely so. I was hearing these songs regularly,

1530
02:07:07.279 --> 02:07:15.319
including Relax because they had Radio Caroline on, which was

1531
02:07:15.680 --> 02:07:19.000
a band station, but anyone could get it. It just

1532
02:07:19.119 --> 02:07:21.119
had to just tune into it. And it was this

1533
02:07:21.359 --> 02:07:25.680
ship docked off of the back in the waters, I think,

1534
02:07:25.840 --> 02:07:29.840
just out of British waters. So it wasn't upbreaking any rules,

1535
02:07:30.920 --> 02:07:35.760
but it was not didn't have a license, and they'd

1536
02:07:35.800 --> 02:07:39.840
play all the top hits, and then I think they

1537
02:07:39.920 --> 02:07:45.920
became legal and whatever turned into another. I don't know.

1538
02:07:46.199 --> 02:07:49.840
I don't really know the history. Actually I've been making

1539
02:07:49.880 --> 02:07:51.359
it up, and as you know, I don't like to

1540
02:07:51.399 --> 02:07:57.439
make things up, and i'd be very factuel. See this

1541
02:07:57.640 --> 02:08:02.680
is my period nineteen eighty four game Popes of Peace, Relax, Hello,

1542
02:08:03.840 --> 02:08:09.279
the reflex flexixx lex Flex Tranduranne. So I was definitely

1543
02:08:09.319 --> 02:08:15.399
working in the bakehouse at this time, Saturday and Sunday

1544
02:08:15.439 --> 02:08:19.720
mornings early and also during the summer as well. It

1545
02:08:19.800 --> 02:08:21.680
was in nineteen eighty four. During the summer, I was

1546
02:08:21.760 --> 02:08:22.119
doing it.

1547
02:08:24.199 --> 02:08:24.279
And.

1548
02:08:26.439 --> 02:08:36.479
I was also but bum bum bum bum bum. All right,

1549
02:08:36.720 --> 02:08:43.000
I can give you an idea. All right, So I

1550
02:08:43.159 --> 02:08:46.159
was doing karate, but I remember one particular there's this

1551
02:08:46.399 --> 02:08:51.479
The only song I remember whilst I was doing karate

1552
02:08:53.800 --> 02:09:01.359
and I'm going down here is ninety eight There must

1553
02:09:01.439 --> 02:09:04.960
be an Angel Playing with My Heart And that was

1554
02:09:05.119 --> 02:09:09.840
number one twenty seventh of July nineteen eighty five. I

1555
02:09:09.960 --> 02:09:12.359
don't know how on earth that didn't stay at number

1556
02:09:12.399 --> 02:09:20.279
one forever, because it was, in my opinion, one of

1557
02:09:20.319 --> 02:09:27.199
the greatest vocals ever, I mean just ever. It was

1558
02:09:27.359 --> 02:09:38.760
phenomenal analytics just had one heck of a voice. But

1559
02:09:38.840 --> 02:09:43.479
I remember, I don't know why, I just remember hearing

1560
02:09:43.520 --> 02:09:52.319
that song during that period of doing karate, and that

1561
02:09:52.640 --> 02:09:55.359
period I wouldn't have seen Top of the Pops because

1562
02:09:55.359 --> 02:10:01.520
I was out every Tuesday and Thursday evening apart from

1563
02:10:01.640 --> 02:10:10.119
during the summer actually the summer period, so like during July. Yeah,

1564
02:10:10.319 --> 02:10:15.600
so July I wouldn't have been doing it, but I

1565
02:10:15.720 --> 02:10:17.520
might have been meeting up with them because we used

1566
02:10:17.520 --> 02:10:20.640
to meet up at the park because the school. Once

1567
02:10:20.680 --> 02:10:26.840
the school was closed, couldn't use the the what's it,

1568
02:10:27.000 --> 02:10:31.199
you know, this the hall the sports hall for however

1569
02:10:31.279 --> 02:10:42.119
many weeks, but I still trained, So I'm going to

1570
02:10:42.199 --> 02:10:46.359
go back. Frankiekosta Hollywood, Two Tribes again. I loved that

1571
02:10:49.039 --> 02:10:56.119
so definitely. Nineteen eighty four, I was working in the bakery.

1572
02:10:58.159 --> 02:11:02.239
George Michael Careless whisper Stevie Wonder. I just called to

1573
02:11:02.279 --> 02:11:06.479
say I love you. September nineteen eighty four, the eighth

1574
02:11:06.520 --> 02:11:11.119
of September. That was number one for six weeks. Two

1575
02:11:11.319 --> 02:11:21.319
Tribes was number one for nine weeks. Wow. So that's

1576
02:11:21.399 --> 02:11:24.359
got to be one of Steve Wonder's biggest all time

1577
02:11:24.479 --> 02:11:29.000
hits as far as being number one. Did he get

1578
02:11:29.039 --> 02:11:31.720
to number one for longer than that with any other songs?

1579
02:11:33.439 --> 02:11:40.399
I don't know that. Perhaps is the Tuesday trivia, I

1580
02:11:40.479 --> 02:11:43.680
don't know. Maybe this is trivia. Is this trivia, I

1581
02:11:43.800 --> 02:11:46.359
don't know, This is kind of trivia and boredom at

1582
02:11:46.359 --> 02:11:49.119
the same time, isn't it. But I'm just talking about

1583
02:11:49.119 --> 02:11:54.000
my favorite songs. So the Power of Love that is

1584
02:11:54.119 --> 02:11:56.600
my favorite. Frankie goes the Hollywood song out of all

1585
02:11:56.680 --> 02:12:04.720
of them, the Power of Love. No, it isn't. Wait

1586
02:12:04.720 --> 02:12:09.520
a minute, there was another one. Oh no, the power

1587
02:12:09.880 --> 02:12:15.079
of Love. It comes from above here in my home,

1588
02:12:17.800 --> 02:12:24.159
so relaxed, two tribes. The Power of Love all got

1589
02:12:24.199 --> 02:12:28.560
to number one in nineteen eighty four. Didn't they do

1590
02:12:28.840 --> 02:12:37.479
another song that I liked? They did another song that

1591
02:12:37.600 --> 02:12:43.199
I liked? Where it was that. I've got to go

1592
02:12:43.399 --> 02:12:50.319
back discography. I'll welcome to the Pleasure that welcome to

1593
02:12:50.520 --> 02:12:57.000
the pollutional so, why is that not listed? Then that's

1594
02:12:57.039 --> 02:13:04.199
what I don't understand. It's not listed. Frankie goes to

1595
02:13:04.279 --> 02:13:10.560
Hollywood Welcome to the Pleasure home. Nope, it's not It's

1596
02:13:10.560 --> 02:13:14.399
not listed in nineteen eighty four. So this isn't all correct,

1597
02:13:15.119 --> 02:13:20.039
I would argue. So unless it was the B side,

1598
02:13:20.439 --> 02:13:25.319
perhaps I should have known better. Jim Diamond, is that

1599
02:13:25.560 --> 02:13:29.199
was I should have known better? Do Do Do Do Do, Do,

1600
02:13:29.279 --> 02:13:33.560
Do Do Do Do, which is a wonderful song. And

1601
02:13:33.680 --> 02:13:38.119
then do they know it's Christmas? December nineteen eighty four,

1602
02:13:39.319 --> 02:13:42.079
so it's a Christmas number one. Five weeks it was

1603
02:13:42.159 --> 02:13:47.960
not a number one, So yeah, I definitely I love

1604
02:13:48.039 --> 02:13:49.760
that song as well, but I love the American one

1605
02:13:49.800 --> 02:14:05.479
as well. The Christmas for the American version, I just

1606
02:14:05.520 --> 02:14:07.800
can't remember what it's called now, but I like that

1607
02:14:07.880 --> 02:14:11.720
as well. I thought they were both Greek and both

1608
02:14:11.760 --> 02:14:14.800
for the same reason, wasn't it. It's just the American

1609
02:14:14.840 --> 02:14:21.000
one had Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder and the Boss

1610
02:14:21.439 --> 02:14:29.399
and I mean Molly, I mean Bruce Pinstein and Tina

1611
02:14:29.560 --> 02:14:38.880
Turner and Cindy Lauper. Did Madonna do it as well?

1612
02:14:39.479 --> 02:14:41.920
Because you know what I see to think it might

1613
02:14:41.960 --> 02:14:45.560
be a weird thing to say that Cindy Lauper is

1614
02:14:45.640 --> 02:14:50.920
like Madonna. Kind of I'm gonna say Madonna copied Cyndy Lauper,

1615
02:14:51.680 --> 02:14:56.399
but Cindy Lauper was kind of almost like the original Madonna.

1616
02:14:56.720 --> 02:15:05.239
But then you could say that Blondie, Debbie Allen, Debbie Allen, Debbie,

1617
02:15:07.640 --> 02:15:12.880
you know, Blondie, that maybe she was the original Madonna.

1618
02:15:14.520 --> 02:15:19.039
And I'm not saying it's just because they're blonde, but

1619
02:15:19.079 --> 02:15:21.880
they're not all blonde, are they? I mean Debbie Harry

1620
02:15:22.199 --> 02:15:25.119
not Alan. Debbie Harry was blonde, but she probably wasn't

1621
02:15:25.159 --> 02:15:29.199
blonde anyway, silly lord, but had all colors of hair.

1622
02:15:31.840 --> 02:15:35.920
Time are the Time? I love that song so much?

1623
02:15:37.560 --> 02:15:41.880
And then Madonna OpEd, the dog's barking again. Hasn't barked hardly?

1624
02:15:42.000 --> 02:15:46.760
Need ye be anything today? I'd say it's weird. I

1625
02:15:46.800 --> 02:15:48.479
looked out the window the other day because the dog

1626
02:15:48.600 --> 02:15:51.239
was just barking and barking and barking, and I'm thinking,

1627
02:15:52.119 --> 02:15:55.159
why doesn't the owner told them to try and calm

1628
02:15:55.199 --> 02:15:58.960
the dog down? Because I do that when Finny starts barking,

1629
02:16:00.079 --> 02:16:02.399
try and calm him down so that the neighbors are

1630
02:16:02.439 --> 02:16:04.880
not disturbed. I looked out the window and she's just

1631
02:16:04.960 --> 02:16:09.600
standing there or he whoever it is, just standing there

1632
02:16:10.279 --> 02:16:13.880
watching a dog barking like really loud for a good

1633
02:16:14.000 --> 02:16:17.039
ten to fifteen minutes. I'm like, I wasn't watching for

1634
02:16:17.119 --> 02:16:20.119
ten to fifteen minutes, but it had been barking for

1635
02:16:20.439 --> 02:16:23.800
that amount of time before I looked, and I was

1636
02:16:23.840 --> 02:16:29.560
just checking to make sure that everything was okay. I'm thinking, Wow,

1637
02:16:31.399 --> 02:16:38.520
it's I don't think even if I'd got like ten

1638
02:16:38.799 --> 02:16:46.520
different doctorates in some kind of psychological different psychological subjects.

1639
02:16:46.559 --> 02:16:52.000
I still wouldn't understand humans foreigner. I want to know

1640
02:16:52.079 --> 02:16:56.479
what love is. I want you to show me a

1641
02:16:56.559 --> 02:17:02.680
lame page. I know him so well, dead or alive.

1642
02:17:03.520 --> 02:17:07.200
You've spinned me right round, right way round, like a

1643
02:17:07.280 --> 02:17:11.719
record me So Phil Bailey and for Easy Lover? I

1644
02:17:11.879 --> 02:17:18.040
love that song what happened to Phil Bailey? Because I

1645
02:17:18.079 --> 02:17:20.719
would argue Phil Bailey was the best vocals on that song.

1646
02:17:21.440 --> 02:17:24.319
And I am at Phil Collins fan, but Phil Bailey,

1647
02:17:26.280 --> 02:17:32.319
them two together, they should have done more. You may

1648
02:17:32.479 --> 02:17:34.600
argue against this. You might think, oh, it's a silly

1649
02:17:34.639 --> 02:17:39.399
thing to say, but I'll say anyway, hell like yeah,

1650
02:17:40.680 --> 02:17:45.319
especially on My car My things are silly thing to say.

1651
02:17:45.440 --> 02:17:49.760
But I kind of think that they should have done

1652
02:17:50.680 --> 02:17:54.200
more together as a kind of a little double act,

1653
02:17:55.479 --> 02:17:57.959
you know. I mean, Phil Collins had a lot and

1654
02:17:58.040 --> 02:18:00.840
has played did in let's face it if fair. Greedy

1655
02:18:01.079 --> 02:18:04.440
was used to eat a lot, but now had his

1656
02:18:04.600 --> 02:18:10.479
band and then he had his own solo career. But

1657
02:18:10.639 --> 02:18:14.360
the harmonies with him Phil Bailey singing together was just

1658
02:18:15.559 --> 02:18:20.559
beautiful and I would liked to have seen them do

1659
02:18:20.719 --> 02:18:26.079
more together. That's just my personal opinion. I mean, I

1660
02:18:26.200 --> 02:18:31.920
realized we're eighty five, ninety five, two thousand and five,

1661
02:18:32.159 --> 02:18:36.639
twenty fifteen, twenty twenty five, forty years too late. But hey,

1662
02:18:39.479 --> 02:18:43.239
we are the world. So that was the American version

1663
02:18:43.360 --> 02:18:48.680
of our one, and we had a world We are

1664
02:18:48.920 --> 02:18:56.440
the children. They were both, I would argue. I wouldn't argue,

1665
02:18:56.760 --> 02:19:02.040
but I would say both equally great. Sol just ruined

1666
02:19:02.079 --> 02:19:05.680
a bit by the video. I just I don't know

1667
02:19:06.600 --> 02:19:09.079
both of them. I just don't like. I know that

1668
02:19:09.280 --> 02:19:11.559
was the cause, that was the reason for the music.

1669
02:19:11.799 --> 02:19:12.239
I know that.

1670
02:19:13.879 --> 02:19:19.239
I've always struggled with things like these big charity events

1671
02:19:19.319 --> 02:19:23.959
where they have comedy music, but there's like really funny

1672
02:19:24.000 --> 02:19:28.040
comedy sketch and then I'll go to a really super

1673
02:19:28.239 --> 02:19:33.799
serious subject and I can't. I can't switch myself like that.

1674
02:19:35.200 --> 02:19:37.760
That's why I have to avoid some TV channels, because

1675
02:19:38.840 --> 02:19:43.319
some of these, like daytime channels, there only somebody on

1676
02:19:43.399 --> 02:19:47.360
in the evening as well, when I'll show old TV shows,

1677
02:19:47.440 --> 02:19:51.600
old comedies which I quite like watching sometimes like whatever

1678
02:19:51.680 --> 02:19:54.680
Happened to Like the Lads, and just shows from like

1679
02:19:55.120 --> 02:19:59.399
decades ago that I just quite like watching. But then

1680
02:19:59.479 --> 02:20:06.799
in the effort, it's like Donkey Sanctuaries and eyelid surgery

1681
02:20:06.920 --> 02:20:10.000
and all this, Like I just like, nah, man, I

1682
02:20:10.159 --> 02:20:14.280
just I'm trying to just enjoy myself and just chill out.

1683
02:20:15.520 --> 02:20:23.559
So yeah, I kind of this. Yeah, I'm just a

1684
02:20:23.639 --> 02:20:28.879
moaning and I Phyllis Nelson moved closer, moved closer, And

1685
02:20:29.000 --> 02:20:35.680
of course Paul Hardcastle nineteen number one for five weeks.

1686
02:20:36.520 --> 02:20:43.719
I mean that that really that was one heck of

1687
02:20:43.799 --> 02:20:46.719
a video, wasn't it. If you don't remember, it was.

1688
02:20:48.559 --> 02:20:48.600
No.

1689
02:20:49.200 --> 02:21:03.319
Nineteen nineteen, No nineteen, No, nineteen nineteen nine, nineteen nineteen. Yeah, wow,

1690
02:21:04.879 --> 02:21:07.760
the crowd you'll never walk alone. Then that's an old

1691
02:21:07.840 --> 02:21:11.479
that's been done so many times. And there my favorite

1692
02:21:11.559 --> 02:21:18.200
version is Elvis Presley or Cruised or lived your Head Bye,

1693
02:21:19.319 --> 02:21:26.000
and Sister selects Frankie. I love that song. Frankie and

1694
02:21:26.799 --> 02:21:30.280
dressed as cheerleaders, which we don't want. We didn't have

1695
02:21:30.680 --> 02:21:34.479
in this country, so cheerleaders were something that was foreign

1696
02:21:35.319 --> 02:21:43.280
to this country in nineteen eighty five, and they were

1697
02:21:43.399 --> 02:21:45.600
doing I don't know, it's like a triangle, We're all

1698
02:21:45.639 --> 02:21:48.799
standing on each other's heads and stuff, and it was brilliant.

1699
02:21:48.959 --> 02:21:53.120
Loved it and really big fan out song number one

1700
02:21:53.159 --> 02:21:58.200
for four weeks then you have mixed. They must be

1701
02:21:58.239 --> 02:22:12.799
an Angel the seventh of July nineteen eighty five. Mm

1702
02:22:13.680 --> 02:22:17.079
but Boom, but bum bum bum boom. That's one of

1703
02:22:17.120 --> 02:22:21.399
my all time favorite songs. It just is, it will

1704
02:22:21.399 --> 02:22:25.799
always be. But sometimes I forget. I forget that it

1705
02:22:25.920 --> 02:22:32.440
is because although individually I like a lot of the

1706
02:22:32.559 --> 02:22:36.719
Year of Mix songs, I never ever once listened to

1707
02:22:36.959 --> 02:22:44.479
a YEU of Mix album. Madonna Into the Groove nineteen

1708
02:22:44.479 --> 02:22:48.719
eighty five, You Beef. That was kind of Madonna was

1709
02:22:48.879 --> 02:22:55.719
starting just making a Was that her first song in

1710
02:22:55.879 --> 02:23:01.000
number one? Yeah? I think it was a number first

1711
02:23:01.120 --> 02:23:05.079
number one song in the UK four weeks and then

1712
02:23:05.280 --> 02:23:09.159
yub forty Chrissy Hyde, I Got You Babe. Yeah, like

1713
02:23:09.319 --> 02:23:14.200
that David Bowie and Mick Jagger dancing in the street

1714
02:23:15.360 --> 02:23:23.799
four weeks at number one. I think that it was

1715
02:23:23.879 --> 02:23:28.959
like a comedy video, wasn't it. And seeing David Bowie

1716
02:23:29.040 --> 02:23:37.440
and Mick Jagger literally dancing, it was so funny that

1717
02:23:37.520 --> 02:23:40.920
people just kept they wanted to keep watching it on TV.

1718
02:23:41.159 --> 02:23:47.120
The video mityal If I was that was a good

1719
02:23:47.200 --> 02:23:54.079
song as well. If I was? That was number one.

1720
02:23:55.680 --> 02:24:05.000
Jennifer Rushed The Power of Love. Wow, huge huge, huge hit,

1721
02:24:06.239 --> 02:24:13.399
A great ballad, wow wow, yeah amazing, Fergal Sharky, A

1722
02:24:13.520 --> 02:24:17.479
good heart, a good heart to it, Yeah like that,

1723
02:24:18.360 --> 02:24:23.120
I'm your Man. Wham, Whitney Houston Save All My Love

1724
02:24:23.159 --> 02:24:27.559
for You. So that Whitney Houston's first number one hit

1725
02:24:29.159 --> 02:24:32.559
two weeks and it was a fourteenth of December eighty five,

1726
02:24:34.559 --> 02:24:41.959
so I was now fifteen, Shaking Stevens. Merry Christmas Everyone

1727
02:24:43.399 --> 02:25:00.479
was the twenty eighth of December, so technically technically Saving

1728
02:25:00.520 --> 02:25:04.319
All My Love for You was the Christmas number one,

1729
02:25:07.040 --> 02:25:10.000
but Shaking Stephens, I thought that Merry Christmas Everyone was

1730
02:25:10.040 --> 02:25:13.280
the number one song for Christmas, but it says twenty

1731
02:25:13.319 --> 02:25:19.959
eighth of December, but then it might be wrong. It

1732
02:25:20.000 --> 02:25:23.040
would be the most play song though at that time,

1733
02:25:24.159 --> 02:25:28.600
being Christmas and all wet, So that was like nineteen

1734
02:25:28.639 --> 02:25:33.479
eighty five was the last full year of living in

1735
02:25:33.879 --> 02:25:40.879
the big house with my family, and then we just

1736
02:25:40.959 --> 02:25:43.319
had the first few months of nineteen eighty six. So

1737
02:25:44.760 --> 02:25:49.959
West End Girls, Pet Shop Boys, Our Hardest Sun always

1738
02:25:50.040 --> 02:25:55.760
shines on TV Bill, the Ocean we Going, It's stuff,

1739
02:25:56.079 --> 02:26:00.280
the dof Get Going, Diana Ross still making song was

1740
02:26:00.280 --> 02:26:05.680
a chain reaction. Wasn't there an old song it is now,

1741
02:26:05.719 --> 02:26:09.200
I guess, but it wasn't Cliff Richard and the Young

1742
02:26:09.239 --> 02:26:13.559
Ones Living Dog. So that was the Young Ones as

1743
02:26:13.600 --> 02:26:25.799
in Rick mal Adrian Edmondson, Yeah, and the other two

1744
02:26:26.840 --> 02:26:31.360
copy case forget their names now. I never did learn

1745
02:26:31.399 --> 02:26:37.000
the name of the little one George Michael A different

1746
02:26:37.079 --> 02:26:44.920
corner Falco rock Me Amadeus, Wow, rocked Me Amadias, Medeis

1747
02:26:44.959 --> 02:26:49.319
Adias and Medeias, Amideias and Medias. I loved that song

1748
02:26:49.479 --> 02:26:56.760
We rock Me Amadias, BlimE Me. Papa Don't Preach. I

1749
02:26:56.799 --> 02:27:00.559
remember that twelfth of July nineteen eighty six, living in

1750
02:27:00.639 --> 02:27:06.879
that flat with my step mom's mom, my step mom's

1751
02:27:06.879 --> 02:27:11.360
step mom, my step mom, my step grandmother, and I

1752
02:27:11.479 --> 02:27:15.920
used to watch Papa Don't Preach the video and I

1753
02:27:16.040 --> 02:27:22.280
loved it. I loved that video. Although True Blue, I

1754
02:27:22.360 --> 02:27:26.440
love that video much more. I had it on tape,

1755
02:27:26.479 --> 02:27:29.280
I recorded it and I wore the tape out. I

1756
02:27:29.399 --> 02:27:33.280
loved it that much. But as a song, Papa Don't

1757
02:27:33.319 --> 02:27:37.959
Preach is one of my favorite songs Madonna ever did.

1758
02:27:39.600 --> 02:27:41.319
Just that one off song. I loved it, and I

1759
02:27:41.399 --> 02:27:45.520
loved the album True Blue, and that's one of my

1760
02:27:45.600 --> 02:27:49.040
favorite My two favorite albums of Madonna, True Blue, and

1761
02:27:49.600 --> 02:28:02.520
Like a Prayer, Wow, Christy Burgh, Lady in Red. So

1762
02:28:02.760 --> 02:28:10.319
my sixteenth birthday, Okay, when I turned sixteen, the number

1763
02:28:10.360 --> 02:28:13.239
one song was Boris Gardner. I want to wake up

1764
02:28:13.280 --> 02:28:17.719
with you, and I think anyone's ever said that to me.

1765
02:28:20.879 --> 02:28:25.639
I want to wake up with you. Anyway, I'm going

1766
02:28:25.719 --> 02:28:28.639
to bring this to an end because noisy people are

1767
02:28:28.680 --> 02:28:32.120
outside again, so I would say thank you for listening.

1768
02:28:32.319 --> 02:28:34.479
I remember to be kind to yourself, because you do

1769
02:28:34.639 --> 02:28:37.840
deserve to be happy and be gentle of yourself. You

1770
02:28:37.959 --> 02:28:55.000
deserved to feel safe. Lots of love. Bye. Relax in

1771
02:28:55.120 --> 02:29:05.840
a more deep and meaningful way, maybe in a way

1772
02:29:06.040 --> 02:29:14.520
that can not just allow you to feel calmer now

1773
02:29:15.719 --> 02:29:24.319
and throughout the time we spend together here, not just

1774
02:29:24.600 --> 02:29:30.159
relaxed at the end of the recording when it's finished

1775
02:29:30.280 --> 02:29:36.799
and you can enjoy that sense of comfort and peace,

1776
02:29:41.559 --> 02:29:54.159
but also I think it would be nice to have

1777
02:29:54.879 --> 02:30:11.879
those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after the recording

1778
02:30:11.959 --> 02:30:25.360
has ended, so that you can still benefit from listening

1779
02:30:26.319 --> 02:30:35.159
to my voice, maybe in a few hours time, perhaps tomorrow,

1780
02:30:41.280 --> 02:30:49.079
and then by listening regularly, especially if you find, like

1781
02:30:49.239 --> 02:30:53.079
some people do, and myself as well. Sometimes I find

1782
02:30:53.159 --> 02:31:03.520
one particular recording that really resonates with me, and I

1783
02:31:03.719 --> 02:31:08.639
just listened to it over and over again every morning

1784
02:31:08.719 --> 02:31:21.200
and every evening. There was this recording from we're going

1785
02:31:21.239 --> 02:31:26.680
back to about nineteen ninety nine. It was it wasn't hypnosis,

1786
02:31:26.799 --> 02:31:32.079
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

1787
02:31:34.600 --> 02:31:39.760
and I managed to find it again, and it still

1788
02:31:39.879 --> 02:31:45.280
has the same effect on me. And part of it

1789
02:31:45.639 --> 02:31:59.879
was the person's voice relaxed me just felt so pa

1790
02:32:02.479 --> 02:32:08.879
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1791
02:32:09.040 --> 02:32:19.680
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1792
02:32:20.479 --> 02:32:27.559
pressing the play button. As soon as I've done that,

1793
02:32:28.639 --> 02:32:32.040
pressed the play button. This was in the days of

1794
02:32:37.200 --> 02:32:46.399
CD players press the play button, ifact it might have

1795
02:32:46.440 --> 02:32:50.760
even been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down on

1796
02:32:50.840 --> 02:33:03.680
the bed and then even without necessarily listening to her

1797
02:33:03.879 --> 02:33:16.799
words because I had them memorized. Really, it was as

1798
02:33:16.840 --> 02:33:27.520
if my body knew exactly what to do, and the

1799
02:33:27.719 --> 02:33:49.719
muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember

1800
02:33:49.879 --> 02:34:03.879
my mind would slow down. Oh. Now, I was listening

1801
02:34:03.959 --> 02:34:10.559
to this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis

1802
02:34:13.280 --> 02:34:21.000
and long before I ever made any videos or audio

1803
02:34:21.159 --> 02:34:25.719
recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that till two

1804
02:34:25.959 --> 02:34:43.879
thousand and six. I knew, I knew how helpful I

1805
02:34:45.360 --> 02:34:55.639
found being able to just let go, to have that

1806
02:34:56.000 --> 02:35:09.319
trust in the person listening to, knowing that it's going

1807
02:35:09.440 --> 02:35:19.920
to be just as relaxing, if not more so. Each

1808
02:35:20.079 --> 02:35:26.639
time you hear my voice, you may feel the same.

1809
02:35:33.040 --> 02:35:40.040
Some people have been listening to me for over a decade,

1810
02:35:48.479 --> 02:35:52.479
maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

1811
02:35:54.239 --> 02:36:00.760
but maybe people come back, some people or maybe listen

1812
02:36:00.840 --> 02:36:17.399
every day. That's something that I do which you may

1813
02:36:17.559 --> 02:36:38.280
not realize by listening, is when I record these recordings. Now,

1814
02:36:38.639 --> 02:36:51.120
for example, I also am affected by the words that

1815
02:36:51.280 --> 02:37:02.760
I say. So if I set to you focus on

1816
02:37:02.879 --> 02:37:12.680
your feet, notice your feet relaxing. I will be focusing

1817
02:37:12.799 --> 02:37:25.280
on my feet. I will be noticing my feet relaxing.

1818
02:37:35.239 --> 02:37:41.399
If I said, focus on your hands, and maybe notice

1819
02:37:41.559 --> 02:37:53.520
the difference between each hand. Perhaps notice the air in

1820
02:37:53.639 --> 02:37:58.600
the room, the temperature of the room. On the backs

1821
02:37:58.639 --> 02:38:10.479
of your hands. You may start to notice what almost

1822
02:38:10.520 --> 02:38:18.399
feels like a very light breeze, even though there may

1823
02:38:18.520 --> 02:38:23.440
not be any type of breeze at all. Where you

1824
02:38:23.600 --> 02:38:37.799
are right now, and as you become aware of your hands,

1825
02:38:42.600 --> 02:38:55.079
I'm also aware of how relaxed my hands are feeling

1826
02:38:56.959 --> 02:39:17.719
now and when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep,

1827
02:39:18.840 --> 02:39:31.399
which may be the reason you're listening, I also feel

1828
02:39:31.600 --> 02:39:45.799
drowsy when I make these recordings. I also notice my

1829
02:39:46.120 --> 02:40:02.399
mind drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep

1830
02:40:08.040 --> 02:40:22.200
without even noticing, and then I carry on talking. And

1831
02:40:22.280 --> 02:40:27.719
it's only when I listen back to do the editing

1832
02:40:31.520 --> 02:40:37.600
I hear snoring and I think I don't remember snoring,

1833
02:40:40.879 --> 02:40:47.680
I remember talking. It's snoring as a pick turned up.

1834
02:40:51.719 --> 02:40:59.360
That's why I sound like when I snare, I at

1835
02:40:59.440 --> 02:41:13.360
really into a whole experience. I don't know how you feel,

1836
02:41:19.639 --> 02:41:30.120
how relaxed you feel in your feet, how relaxed you

1837
02:41:30.360 --> 02:41:51.600
feel in your hands. I have noticed more and more

1838
02:41:57.559 --> 02:42:10.159
that the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel,

1839
02:42:13.879 --> 02:42:30.000
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1840
02:42:33.200 --> 02:42:54.120
muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe easier without

1841
02:42:55.639 --> 02:43:16.319
necessarily focus on your breath. However, being able to notice

1842
02:43:27.000 --> 02:43:56.680
the ease in which you breathe so naturally you breathe

1843
02:43:57.319 --> 02:44:40.959
so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving.

1844
02:44:46.719 --> 02:44:59.600
When I've got my eyes closed, I tend to visually

1845
02:45:00.159 --> 02:45:16.239
is a beautiful field with trees and flowers producing all

1846
02:45:16.440 --> 02:45:51.319
that life giving oxygen. It feels nice too, if nothing else,

1847
02:45:54.559 --> 02:46:28.639
just taking some time away from everything, enjoying that feeling

1848
02:46:29.040 --> 02:47:19.520
of peace, serenity with a joyful heart. Time seems to

1849
02:47:19.840 --> 02:47:54.920
just drip by, so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful,

1850
02:48:04.879 --> 02:48:47.639
completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free,

1851
02:49:14.159 --> 02:50:05.479
noticing that your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because

1852
02:50:05.680 --> 02:50:34.239
nothing really requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical

1853
02:50:34.600 --> 02:50:46.239
sensations of allowing the stress to drip out of your body,

1854
02:50:52.760 --> 02:51:15.680
to appear out of every part of your body, and

1855
02:51:16.079 --> 02:51:55.559
being released from your brain. H your mind slowly but surely.

1856
02:52:02.440 --> 02:52:39.840
The muscles in your legs relax res so very deep thing,

1857
02:52:49.639 --> 02:53:20.600
relax so deeply, And the feelings, the pleasant feelings in

1858
02:53:20.760 --> 02:53:45.239
your arms and shoulders, deepening each part of your body

1859
02:53:48.600 --> 02:54:26.920
further and deeper and deeper. Medicine, the feedings in the

1860
02:54:27.079 --> 02:55:27.000
back of your neck, the feedings in your wrists, muscles

1861
02:55:29.040 --> 02:56:06.280
in front of your body, I oh say, feeling peaceful deeply,

1862
02:56:23.319 --> 02:56:33.600
there's a sense of peace spreads through your very core.

1863
02:57:04.159 --> 02:57:05.639
Even when you.

1864
02:57:08.600 --> 02:58:08.680
Focus on your mind, your mind becomes a slower, even deeper, relaxing,

1865
02:58:32.520 --> 02:59:10.360
so very slow. His stomach teas fall in your stomach.

1866
02:59:32.559 --> 03:00:06.639
You're back. Notice Notice how relaxed you now feel in

1867
03:00:06.799 --> 03:00:39.479
the hole of your back. A spy from your brain

1868
03:00:40.079 --> 03:00:47.760
all the way down the middle of your back, sending

1869
03:00:48.159 --> 03:01:11.200
and receiving millions of messages every day. Deep comfort increase

1870
03:01:11.360 --> 03:02:27.239
in deeply relaxed you means relax spreading those signals down

1871
03:02:27.440 --> 03:02:36.399
your spine or cord into air, every part of your body,

1872
03:02:51.040 --> 03:03:39.319
your shins and your calf muscles, your elbows, Feelings of

1873
03:03:39.559 --> 03:03:56.639
peace and tranquility spreading through your body, tips of your toes,

1874
03:04:01.040 --> 03:04:12.440
to your eyes, your fingers. All the wait till you

1875
03:04:12.639 --> 03:05:21.760
know about letting her, reating her peace, h drift in mind,

1876
03:05:26.319 --> 03:05:43.319

this space of peace and safety, so firy, relaxed.

1880
03:10:01.120 --> 03:11:55.520
Usual.

1881
03:11:25.559 --> 03:11:50.280
Letting go. Maybe we can just focus on the different

1882
03:11:50.680 --> 03:12:25.440
parts of your body just to notice you foolhead and

1883
03:12:25.719 --> 03:13:32.159
your eyes two so loose, noticing the sense of complete freedom,

1884
03:13:44.200 --> 03:14:59.440
absolute freedom, dada, he's on.

1885
03:15:01.520 --> 03:15:37.079
Energy pace to breathe.

1886
03:15:40.479 --> 03:16:51.040
Suge ease ye loose. You may have or may not

03:16:51.280 --> 03:17:52.040
have noticed your mind drifted peaceful move any even more

1888
03:17:52.479 --> 03:18:17.000
deeply in the direction of total blissful pace. Blisphul pace

03:20:45.719 --> 03:21:57.040
with mind re cooty c rex craxed. Your body feels

1891
03:21:57.319 --> 03:22:37.120
almost in the so very lasted and paceful so pace from.

1892
03:22:52.879 --> 03:23:00.239
H e.

1893
03:23:23.479 --> 03:23:38.440
M hm mm hmmm. And you could start to notice

1894
03:23:38.840 --> 03:23:47.879
that you are feeling more relaxed, even though I've not

1895
03:23:49.600 --> 03:23:59.879
purposely focused your mind upon that sense of physical coming

1896
03:24:00.159 --> 03:24:07.600
foot that is growing within you throughout your body, and

1897
03:24:07.719 --> 03:24:17.319
your mind starts to slow down, And that could be

1898
03:24:18.079 --> 03:24:26.000
almost in recognition of I guess my speech not being

1899
03:24:26.239 --> 03:24:43.399
particularly fast, and things just generally feel calmer. Just by

1900
03:24:44.440 --> 03:24:53.520
listening to my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to

1901
03:24:53.680 --> 03:24:59.559
take a break from the day, take a break from

1902
03:25:00.319 --> 03:25:07.600
your life as it is, and to give yourself a rest,

1903
03:25:10.239 --> 03:25:17.479
giving yourself permission to take some time off and to

1904
03:25:17.639 --> 03:25:23.520
allow your body to relax and allow your mind to

1905
03:25:23.719 --> 03:25:35.079
slow down, which in turn releases the tension and he

1906
03:25:35.280 --> 03:25:44.159
stresses that you had in your body. It's almost as

1907
03:25:44.200 --> 03:25:50.000
if the parts of your body just open up, allowing

1908
03:25:50.120 --> 03:26:02.040
the negativity out and at the same time replacing that

1909
03:26:02.280 --> 03:26:11.879
negativity with positive healing energy, which then fills your body

1910
03:26:12.000 --> 03:26:24.559
up and your mind to also starts to appreciate those

1911
03:26:25.000 --> 03:26:42.639
feelings of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing,

1912
03:26:45.840 --> 03:26:54.399
an energy that spreads through your body like a wave

1913
03:26:56.719 --> 03:27:08.879
of comfort. And all this comes and just allowing yourself

1914
03:27:11.680 --> 03:27:16.879
a few minutes, maybe half an hour hour long you

1915
03:27:17.000 --> 03:27:29.559
want it to be, to just rest and allow your

1916
03:27:29.680 --> 03:27:40.120
mind and your body to almost reset itself to the

1917
03:27:40.280 --> 03:27:56.120
settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more room

1918
03:27:56.639 --> 03:28:09.680
for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around your

1919
03:28:09.760 --> 03:28:18.200
body and into your mind, almost as if your mind

1920
03:28:18.280 --> 03:28:28.879
and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each other,

1921
03:28:29.959 --> 03:28:42.000
with that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice,

1922
03:28:44.600 --> 03:28:50.479
really does feel nice to know that you are the

1923
03:28:50.639 --> 03:29:03.920
one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort and

1924
03:29:04.159 --> 03:29:06.719
to experience.

1925
03:29:08.479 --> 03:29:09.639
More of this.

1926
03:29:11.399 --> 03:29:26.559
Deep relaxation spreading throughout your body. And as I focus

1927
03:29:28.120 --> 03:29:33.879
on each part of your body. You can notice that

1928
03:29:34.120 --> 03:29:48.600
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it,

1929
03:29:51.360 --> 03:30:04.879
becomes even more calm and comfortable, just by focusing. And

1930
03:30:05.120 --> 03:30:10.639
as I move down your body, starting at your head,

1931
03:30:13.360 --> 03:30:18.600
the parts that you have already focused on or continue

1932
03:30:20.000 --> 03:30:27.079
to relax deeply and those parts that have not yet

1933
03:30:27.280 --> 03:30:40.159
focused on or just automatically release any remain intention in

1934
03:30:40.319 --> 03:30:54.600
anticipation of even more comfort about to come now, and

1935
03:30:54.920 --> 03:31:02.360
start by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware the

1936
03:31:02.639 --> 03:31:12.879
feelings of your forehead and any background sounds like mister

1937
03:31:13.159 --> 03:31:18.079
Herbert the pigeon can just allow you to feel even

1938
03:31:18.280 --> 03:31:28.239
more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment. This isn't

1939
03:31:28.760 --> 03:31:36.639
this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world. I

1940
03:31:36.799 --> 03:31:44.200
live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature sounds around.

1941
03:31:49.559 --> 03:31:54.600
So as you focus on your forehead, just notice how

1942
03:31:54.760 --> 03:32:04.719
it becomes even more relaxed as you focus only on

1943
03:32:04.920 --> 03:32:14.479
my voice and that part of your body. Moving down

1944
03:32:14.719 --> 03:32:27.239
to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing how your

1945
03:32:27.319 --> 03:32:34.200
eyelids feel so heavy yet so light that at the

1946
03:32:34.399 --> 03:32:41.559
same time, and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing

1947
03:32:43.479 --> 03:32:55.280
completely moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

1948
03:32:55.760 --> 03:33:02.399
your tongue, your teeth, and your gums, the hole of

1949
03:33:02.559 --> 03:33:17.360
your mouth relaxing, calm and lease. As you focus now

1950
03:33:18.159 --> 03:33:25.360
on your jaw, just the parts of your jaw near

1951
03:33:25.440 --> 03:33:30.639
your mouth, your chin, but all the way up the

1952
03:33:30.799 --> 03:33:37.360
size of your face to your ears, the hole of

1953
03:33:37.520 --> 03:34:05.040
your jaw, feeding more relaxed calm. Focusing on your neck,

1954
03:34:07.719 --> 03:34:13.559
the front of your neck and your throat relaxing and

1955
03:34:15.040 --> 03:34:25.440
loose and calm. The sides of your neck, the right

1956
03:34:25.680 --> 03:34:38.559
and left side of your neck relax and loose and calm.

1957
03:34:44.959 --> 03:34:51.639
And now the back of your neck, focusing on the

1958
03:34:51.879 --> 03:35:02.319
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that

1959
03:35:02.520 --> 03:35:11.399
may have been there before, and enjoying that sense of

1960
03:35:12.399 --> 03:35:22.879
increasing comfort and release. I think you can experience in

1961
03:35:23.000 --> 03:35:34.879
the back of your neck, moving down your back and

1962
03:35:35.079 --> 03:35:39.879
moving either side of your spine right from the top

1963
03:35:40.000 --> 03:35:45.520
of your back all the way down to the bottom

1964
03:35:45.600 --> 03:36:02.600
of your back, down to your lower back. And as

1965
03:36:02.680 --> 03:36:10.079
you move up and down your spine, you can feel

1966
03:36:10.239 --> 03:36:17.959
the muscles either side of your spine relaxing even more.

1967
03:36:25.479 --> 03:36:32.200
And as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts

1968
03:36:32.319 --> 03:36:42.440
to spread outwards from your spine into both sides of

1969
03:36:42.559 --> 03:36:49.559
your back, the top of your back, the middle en

1970
03:36:49.680 --> 03:36:59.159
your lower back. And as you scan gently and slowly

1971
03:37:00.399 --> 03:37:05.639
up and down your back, there's the muscles in the

1972
03:37:05.799 --> 03:37:15.600
top of your back relax and become looser. The muscles

1973
03:37:15.760 --> 03:37:21.399
in the middle of your back also seem to just

1974
03:37:21.840 --> 03:37:36.319
almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting. And

1975
03:37:36.559 --> 03:37:42.600
in your lower back there seems to be an extra

1976
03:37:42.840 --> 03:37:58.959
special feeling of comfort. The spreads into your hips. Sit

1977
03:37:59.079 --> 03:38:07.159
down your lower back, into your hips, into the area

1978
03:38:07.280 --> 03:38:15.840
where your cosix are, and into your buttocks, and all

1979
03:38:15.840 --> 03:38:24.920
those muscles that spread bring me a lower back into

1980
03:38:24.959 --> 03:38:38.440
your hip area, start to melt, start to really let go,

1981
03:38:45.120 --> 03:38:49.959
and you know where about to focus on your shoulders.

1982
03:38:51.719 --> 03:38:58.719
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

1983
03:39:01.760 --> 03:39:18.440
continue to relax so calmly, and she focus on your shoulders.

1984
03:39:20.239 --> 03:39:36.319
You may notice they're already feeding, really loose. They're already

1985
03:39:39.399 --> 03:40:02.559
feeding calm I fear those muscles. The move from your

1986
03:40:02.719 --> 03:40:22.079
neck into your shoulders feels so soft and gentle, so

1987
03:40:22.559 --> 03:40:51.840
smooth and calm. The feeling in your shoulders seems to

1988
03:40:52.280 --> 03:41:00.719
spread deep into your shoulders, a sense of relaxation, not

1989
03:41:01.280 --> 03:41:15.079
just traveling deeply into your muscles, but also relaxing the

1990
03:41:15.239 --> 03:41:24.920
bones and moving all the way to underneath your arms,

1991
03:41:27.760 --> 03:41:33.680
relaxing the whole area between the tops of your shoulders

1992
03:41:35.040 --> 03:41:52.799
and underneath your arms, healing. You feel so relaxed and

1993
03:41:53.079 --> 03:42:14.280
comfortable in your shoulders. Sense that's deep healing message into

1994
03:42:14.360 --> 03:42:26.479
your arms. You may feel almost as if your arms

1995
03:42:26.600 --> 03:42:27.639
are not even that.

1996
03:42:29.319 --> 03:42:45.760
Because the son relaxed, so deeply, relaxed, so.

1997
03:42:50.000 --> 03:42:51.479
So calm.

1998
03:42:59.760 --> 03:43:06.399
Hm so.

1999
03:43:20.879 --> 03:43:32.000
The feels spreading all the way down your arms to elbows,

2000
03:43:35.760 --> 03:44:00.959
including your elbows, circumfort spreads all away into your rists,

2001
03:44:03.799 --> 03:44:19.120
your forearments, and your wrists so heavy. Yet at the

2002
03:44:19.440 --> 03:45:03.040
same time, sunlight and gentle for a cassette. Now on.

2003
03:45:05.760 --> 03:45:59.840
Your hands, my hands, so peaceful in your hands, said,

2004
03:46:03.840 --> 03:46:05.639
real pace.

2005
03:46:17.319 --> 03:46:33.399
Just seems to feel siph familiar with your hands relax deeply.

2006
03:46:42.959 --> 03:48:38.840
Else THI it's it's it's you think it taps your

2007
03:48:38.959 --> 03:50:34.840
attention to affront to your body. Concuss my muscles and

2009
03:53:35.040 --> 03:53:45.920

03:55:08.879 --> 03:55:24.000
Come out that deep relaxation, the spread your chest in

2013
03:55:24.159 --> 03:55:39.000
your story, let's me go.

2014
03:55:43.120 --> 03:56:00.479
Everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now from twenty

2015
03:56:00.840 --> 03:56:08.959
down to one. You can imagine in a way it's

2016
03:56:09.159 --> 03:56:15.319
like just walking down some steps and each step or

2017
03:56:15.440 --> 03:56:21.440
twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.

2018
03:56:24.920 --> 03:56:40.319
Each step represents a deepening of that comfort, and the

2019
03:56:40.520 --> 03:56:46.600
furvies you walk down those steps, the deeper and more

2020
03:56:46.680 --> 04:00:45.239
relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, three,

2021
04:01:28.040 --> 04:03:35.959
four four s too well.

2022
04:06:51.280 --> 04:07:54.399
Nine eight.

2023
04:08:53.840 --> 04:09:31.239
Fis you.

2024
04:09:32.799 --> 04:09:33.120
Would you?

2025
04:10:16.079 --> 04:10:31.680
Six?

2026
04:11:46.719 --> 04:12:05.959
Five to.

2027
04:12:36.520 --> 04:15:28.200
U the US?

2028
04:17:34.520 --> 04:17:52.559
Now did she focus on your wives? A countdown from

2029
04:17:52.799 --> 04:18:08.120
ten doats one? Focusing just on your eyes, your eyelids,

2030
04:18:08.600 --> 04:18:17.319
the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves, a

2031
04:18:17.559 --> 04:18:18.799
whole area.

2032
04:18:21.479 --> 04:18:35.399
That makes up your eye. And as we count down

2033
04:18:36.000 --> 04:18:42.319
ten down to one, whilst.

2034
04:18:42.280 --> 04:18:55.559
Focus in on your eyes, you become twice is relaxed.

2035
04:18:57.879 --> 04:19:10.879
With each number counting down that you may find the

2036
04:19:11.040 --> 04:19:17.559
all you want to do is just drift off to sleep.

2037
04:19:20.520 --> 04:19:27.120
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself

2038
04:19:27.239 --> 04:19:41.879
to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, you're going

2039
04:19:42.000 --> 04:19:44.200
to begin counting down.

2040
04:19:45.840 --> 04:21:56.159
Ten down to one right now, nine eight seven.

2041
04:22:15.040 --> 04:29:04.959
S free, So.

2042
04:29:13.399 --> 04:29:19.879
Counting down ten to one ten nine.

2043
04:29:21.319 --> 04:29:29.920
Eight seven, six, five.

2044
04:29:31.959 --> 04:29:35.680
Four three.

2045
04:29:38.319 --> 04:29:50.360
Two one. And maybe that was a bit too quick

2046
04:29:50.959 --> 04:29:54.840
in order to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast

2047
04:29:55.159 --> 04:30:03.959
for you to notice the calming of your body, maybe

2048
04:30:04.799 --> 04:30:08.639
even a little bit of pressure there, Like you're counted

2049
04:30:08.760 --> 04:30:12.040
down from ten to one. Would you expect me to do? Man,

2050
04:30:12.959 --> 04:30:16.639
expect me to stick go with floppy just because you're

2051
04:30:16.719 --> 04:30:26.079
counted down. If you try it again, but this time,

2052
04:30:26.159 --> 04:30:32.159
I'll go a bit slower this time, and you focus

2053
04:30:32.559 --> 04:30:37.159
on the whole of your body before we focus on

2054
04:30:37.239 --> 04:30:47.639
your legs. Just notice how your body does start to

2055
04:30:48.159 --> 04:30:59.239
feel more relaxed with every number that I count down

2056
04:31:08.559 --> 04:32:45.159
nine eight, seven, six, five, four three. I just notice how.

2057
04:32:47.360 --> 04:32:49.920
How you feel generally, how your body feels.

2058
04:32:56.559 --> 04:33:04.840
It's not necessarily even about counting down from ten to one.

2059
04:33:07.840 --> 04:33:21.240
It's that space that you have, that space between being

2060
04:33:24.840 --> 04:33:30.240
active physically or mentally, just.

2061
04:33:34.919 --> 04:33:39.880
Sitting or lying down, just being there, not doing.

2062
04:33:39.720 --> 04:33:45.040
Anything, not saying anything, not needing to think about anything.

2063
04:33:46.880 --> 04:33:50.520
So it opens up a space, you know, a bit

2064
04:33:50.599 --> 04:34:01.360
of a space, a gap. And the more I came

2065
04:34:01.479 --> 04:34:06.040
down from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes.

2066
04:34:09.080 --> 04:34:15.439
So there's that gap of calmness, of comfort and relaxation.

2067
04:34:21.400 --> 04:34:33.759
It's a nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or

2068
04:34:34.279 --> 04:34:48.119
discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you.

2069
04:34:50.840 --> 04:34:51.360
To just.

2070
04:34:54.360 --> 04:35:00.680
Slow down, someone who count the game from ten down

2071
04:35:00.759 --> 04:35:10.680
to one and notice that gap widening, the gap. And

2072
04:35:10.840 --> 04:35:15.279
as it widens, it's almost like that the stress and

2073
04:35:15.400 --> 04:35:33.000
attention falls into the gap. It gives you that distance,

2074
04:35:35.000 --> 04:35:43.639
that space. Now ten.

2075
04:35:47.959 --> 04:36:14.880
Nine, eight, seven, six.

2076
04:36:27.360 --> 04:36:57.959
Five four three.

2077
04:37:32.720 --> 04:37:32.919
One.

2078
04:37:44.840 --> 04:38:04.919
How did you? What did you? Can you notice that?

2079
04:38:05.919 --> 04:38:46.080
Do you feeling calm, relaxed? Without focus on legs? Just

2080
04:38:46.240 --> 04:38:46.799
two legs.

2081
04:39:02.799 --> 04:39:03.720
You're just gonna.

2082
04:39:03.959 --> 04:39:23.360
Start with focusing on your thighs. Of course, it's not

2083
04:39:23.479 --> 04:39:31.959
the most exciting thing to be done, because I'm sure

2084
04:39:32.080 --> 04:39:34.639
like most of your body is not. I'm not going

2085
04:39:34.759 --> 04:39:47.400
on mine now, Just focusing on the whole of your thighs,

2086
04:39:50.240 --> 04:39:53.959
the tops of your thighs, the side of your fighs,

2087
04:39:56.159 --> 04:40:01.400
the bottoms of your thighs, out of thigh, inner thighs,

2088
04:40:03.639 --> 04:40:07.520
basically the hole of your thigh that leads into.

2089
04:40:07.400 --> 04:40:08.119
Your hip.

2090
04:40:11.919 --> 04:40:14.639
And it goes down to your.

2091
04:40:16.599 --> 04:40:17.240
Knee joint.

2092
04:40:22.439 --> 04:40:29.680
Now, this is a big area. It's a very heavy area.

2093
04:40:30.159 --> 04:40:36.159
It's very strong, probably the strongest muscles in your body

2094
04:40:36.799 --> 04:40:37.720
and in your thighs.

2095
04:40:47.919 --> 04:40:48.799
But I don't think we.

2096
04:40:50.560 --> 04:41:03.080
Perhaps will give enough attention to our thighs. Perhaps we

2097
04:41:03.279 --> 04:41:13.919
do make acknowledge how important our thighs are to our lives,

2098
04:41:25.439 --> 04:41:34.840
how much they actually do for us all through our lives.

2099
04:41:42.000 --> 04:41:47.880
And I hope my selves that really weird. I think

2100
04:41:47.959 --> 04:41:54.959
that all of her body parts, especially our thighs, needs

2101
04:41:55.080 --> 04:42:12.599
some TLC. I've shown a bit of acknowledgement, thank you,

2102
04:42:15.759 --> 04:42:28.159
gratitude for what advice to do for us. I don't

2103
04:42:28.200 --> 04:42:34.520
know this may sound, it's strange. Make me think, why

2104
04:42:34.520 --> 04:42:37.240
am I surely how I should be out in the

2105
04:42:37.360 --> 04:42:46.159
garden hugging a tree or something. It's hard to set

2106
04:42:46.279 --> 04:42:49.360
my crophone up on a tree. That's what I'm doing

2107
04:42:49.400 --> 04:42:51.319
to site to or something like I would be outside

2108
04:42:51.400 --> 04:42:55.159
hugging a tree. I can't see the television from the tree.

2109
04:43:02.000 --> 04:43:06.159
You move down to your knees, you gain such an

2110
04:43:06.240 --> 04:43:07.400
important path.

2111
04:43:11.680 --> 04:43:13.319
And I think we don't.

2112
04:43:13.240 --> 04:43:21.080
Necessarily I speak for myself here, I don't necessarily appreciate

2113
04:43:22.880 --> 04:43:27.959
all that I needs do for me until I have

2114
04:43:28.080 --> 04:43:33.439
a problem with my need occasionally if I maybe I'll

2115
04:43:33.520 --> 04:43:39.400
bash it or it's aching for some reason. It's then

2116
04:43:39.880 --> 04:43:45.599
that I realize how much it does have the benefit

2117
04:43:45.680 --> 04:43:53.200
of being able to use my legs without any kind

2118
04:43:53.240 --> 04:44:01.759
of physical discovert is a beautiful thing, possibly not appreciated

2119
04:44:01.880 --> 04:44:12.959
until it's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort. But as

2120
04:44:13.000 --> 04:44:18.360
you focus on your these, regardless of how your knees feel,

2121
04:44:21.439 --> 04:44:25.639
you can have that sense of gratitude.

2122
04:44:26.360 --> 04:44:29.400
And love to your needs for all they do here,

2123
04:44:40.080 --> 04:44:40.400
you can.

2124
04:44:40.400 --> 04:44:43.000
Still have that attention and your thighs.

2125
04:44:43.799 --> 04:44:50.000
They can notice how your thighs feel, maybe notice that

2126
04:44:50.360 --> 04:45:09.040
they are relaxing more deeply. As you focus now on

2127
04:45:09.159 --> 04:45:13.119
the bottoms of your legs ships you can't have the

2128
04:45:13.159 --> 04:45:18.040
bottoms the bones between your knees.

2129
04:45:19.080 --> 04:45:19.840
Your feet.

2130
04:45:21.159 --> 04:45:26.680
Incorporates, of course, your ankles so important.

2131
04:45:32.360 --> 04:45:34.520
Anyone that's had either.

2132
04:45:34.759 --> 04:45:37.000
Like the slightest sprain of.

2133
04:45:37.000 --> 04:45:44.599
An ankle, knows how how much we take our ankles

2134
04:45:44.720 --> 04:45:52.880
for granted. Then it's kind of strange in a way

2135
04:45:52.959 --> 04:45:58.560
when you think that. You know, logically, our wrists are

2136
04:45:58.599 --> 04:46:02.639
a lot thinner than the rest of their arms, which

2137
04:46:02.799 --> 04:46:06.080
is okay. It doesn't can't see any problem with that.

2138
04:46:07.520 --> 04:46:09.080
You're just picking stuff up.

2139
04:46:10.599 --> 04:46:12.040
By our ankles.

2140
04:46:13.279 --> 04:46:23.200
So much thinner than the rest of our legs, and

2141
04:46:23.360 --> 04:46:27.840
from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't really

2142
04:46:27.959 --> 04:46:35.200
make sense that all this weight would ultimately be resting

2143
04:46:36.240 --> 04:46:46.200
on your ankles then leading to your feet, that thin area,

2144
04:46:47.720 --> 04:46:57.080
thin bone. Yeah, it does so much great work. Supports

2145
04:46:57.200 --> 04:47:07.360
us or our body a lifetime, helps us to balance,

2146
04:47:09.599 --> 04:47:10.400
it helps you to.

2147
04:47:14.400 --> 04:47:16.080
Get around, to be mobile.

2148
04:47:22.479 --> 04:47:30.159
There's the calf muscles. Of course, when man was younger,

2149
04:47:30.560 --> 04:47:33.880
I couldn't see the point of calf muscles. Didn't seem

2150
04:47:33.919 --> 04:47:38.880
to do anything. Okay, if I walk around a tipto this,

2151
04:47:39.799 --> 04:47:43.639
then my calf muscles get some work. And of course

2152
04:47:43.720 --> 04:47:47.959
that's not true. Calf muscles be used, and then we

2153
04:47:48.439 --> 04:48:02.639
use that X you shields there to protect your legs,

2154
04:48:06.959 --> 04:48:11.720
shaped in a way almost as a protector, with the

2155
04:48:11.799 --> 04:48:31.840
bone leading course to your ankles. In your feet, you're

2156
04:48:32.000 --> 04:48:33.880
going to focus on your feet. I'm just going to

2157
04:48:33.959 --> 04:48:34.959
focus on the legs.

2158
04:48:37.040 --> 04:48:40.479
I mean, now I.

2159
04:48:40.639 --> 04:48:45.880
Mentioned your feet could be said anyway, so maybe I

2160
04:48:45.959 --> 04:48:47.360
should focus on your feet.

2161
04:48:47.400 --> 04:48:47.560
I'm not.

2162
04:48:51.959 --> 04:48:56.439
You have them in your awareness the same as you

2163
04:48:57.279 --> 04:48:59.360
have your thighs in your awareness.

2164
04:49:00.240 --> 04:49:01.400
Even though we haven't.

2165
04:49:01.200 --> 04:49:06.799
Been focusing on your thighs for a few minutes. When

2166
04:49:06.840 --> 04:49:21.479
we focusing on your ankles, stood that sensation of comfort

2167
04:49:24.200 --> 04:49:33.759
in your thighs in the stab of movements of energy

2168
04:49:35.799 --> 04:49:43.040
because the figs hold lots of different sensations. Post is

2169
04:49:43.200 --> 04:49:47.080
the muscles, big strong muscles.

2170
04:49:47.240 --> 04:49:58.400
That we have to have thighs with the skin.

2171
04:50:00.080 --> 04:50:04.520
On the outside of the thighs as in the outside

2172
04:50:04.560 --> 04:50:14.799
of the apple, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,

2173
04:50:17.599 --> 04:50:27.439
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs.

2174
04:50:29.599 --> 04:50:32.040
The bones, the.

2175
04:50:32.200 --> 04:50:38.560
Muscle is, the blood, vessels, the archies, all this stuff in.

2176
04:50:38.639 --> 04:50:40.119
The side of ees.

2177
04:50:44.560 --> 04:50:48.159
Again, sometimes it'd be nice if you ac should put

2178
04:50:48.200 --> 04:50:56.439
your fingers inside your eyes and mesage can message the

2179
04:50:56.599 --> 04:51:00.560
outside of doors and be able to get into the

2180
04:51:00.680 --> 04:51:06.000
muscles to be able to just massage inside your thighs.

2181
04:51:06.880 --> 04:51:20.319
Message of the bones and egg things just jeply heap

2182
04:51:21.360 --> 04:51:33.080
thighs you can down, message of inside your pas, message

2183
04:51:33.119 --> 04:51:41.240
of my bones, the healing fatives of spreading the heat.

2184
04:51:41.439 --> 04:51:55.959
Deep injuss coast of the back. The inside case.

2185
04:51:57.159 --> 04:51:58.200
Me is.

2186
04:52:00.080 --> 04:52:01.639
This sensitive.

2187
04:52:04.439 --> 04:52:09.799
That my eyes was struck and my big because it's

2188
04:52:09.799 --> 04:52:15.360
an air that's more than touched. It's almost like a

2189
04:52:15.560 --> 04:52:22.319
hidden part a crease, almost.

2190
04:52:24.200 --> 04:52:25.360
Like partner.

2191
04:52:26.759 --> 04:52:39.159
Has a sensitivity so different. Of course it's protected by

2192
04:52:39.279 --> 04:52:40.080
the legs.

2193
04:52:47.720 --> 04:52:48.599
Agin putting.

2194
04:52:49.560 --> 04:52:52.959
I think sense about case in x.

2195
04:52:58.759 --> 04:53:05.279
Fo to ticks. So that's soldry for the tapes. The

2196
04:53:05.439 --> 04:53:23.560
tups good inside. That's large and so mus tissue knows fields, fats,

2197
04:53:31.400 --> 04:53:42.200
s down, take offs. That's a cancer except sis.

2198
04:53:45.959 --> 04:53:46.919
That's large.

2199
04:53:50.720 --> 04:54:03.439
Tissue sick for she.

2200
04:54:07.000 --> 04:54:19.560
Let's spook, Let's Street isn't a sweet to treaty.

2201
04:54:23.319 --> 04:54:23.919
She's great
