00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:29.879
boring objects. My website for this podcast is let Me

00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:35.200
Boy to Sleep dot com. Although my Jasonnewland dot com

6
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:39.759
is still in operation. It's just a watered down version

7
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:47.359
with all the links to previous hypnosis stuff. And also

8
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:53.759
if you'd like to become part of Jason Newland's Facebook

9
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:57.039
group talking about myself and the third person there, and

10
00:00:57.679 --> 00:01:02.039
my Facebook group is called Jason Newlands Group, and if

11
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:06.159
you'd like to join in groovy So what I thought

12
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:09.920
i'd do? What I thought I would do. I sound

13
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:16.959
very young today for some reason, don't sound my actual age.

14
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:22.599
I was last night. I was going I think I

15
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:24.799
was on YouTube going through some.

16
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:24.959
Of the.

17
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:31.640
Not my YouTube, no, I think it was Apple Music,

18
00:01:31.719 --> 00:01:33.359
and I was just going through some of the music

19
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:38.159
that I some of the songs that I like, and

20
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:43.480
I forget how many songs I actually really like from

21
00:01:43.519 --> 00:01:50.000
the past. And sometimes I do get asked that question.

22
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:53.120
By the way, it's Vinnie in the background. If you're

23
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:58.799
wondering all that noises I do get asked what's my

24
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:02.799
favorite song or my favorite album, and off the top

25
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:05.359
of my head, I seem to come up with very

26
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:13.599
similar question answers. Rather, but if I have the information

27
00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:17.479
in front of me, like all the different songs that

28
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:24.879
have been released, I've got more of an opportunity to

29
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:30.039
actually be reminded of some of the songs that I'd

30
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:34.840
forgotten about. So what I'm going to do for this

31
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:40.199
Monday's boring objects I'm going to I'm just going to

32
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:43.800
talk about some of my favorite songs from the eighties.

33
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:48.680
Now I'm probably gonna, Yeah, I want to go maybe

34
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:51.439
my favorite it might just be my favorite songs from

35
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:55.039
nineteen eighty because I don't know how far I can go,

36
00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.159
because I'm going to look through the whole year, Becau

37
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:03.120
It's not just number one hits that I would like.

38
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:05.439
There's going to be songs that maybe we're in the

39
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:09.400
top ten, top twenty, top thirty, even that I might

40
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:12.840
have really liked. So I don't want to just find

41
00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:18.039
the number one hits from the UK, you know, in

42
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:23.319
nineteen eighty, because might gave them. Give me maybe thirty songs,

43
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:27.000
maybe twenty seven songs or whatever. Because sometimes songs are

44
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:32.680
there for more than one week, aren't they? So yeah,

45
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:34.759
so I thought, I just I'm not on the website

46
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:43.000
called official charts dot com. Now I hope that this

47
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:48.719
is only going to be in the UK. It won't

48
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:53.479
matter too much because there's a crossover obviously. I mean,

49
00:03:53.639 --> 00:04:00.800
so many songs that I loved were from other countries. However,

50
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:05.159
there's gonna be I mean, I know, sometimes old I

51
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:09.159
hear a song and it was a massive hit in America,

52
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:14.240
absolutely huge hit. I saw one the other day. It

53
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:18.160
was something on YouTube. I think there's this Morning. Actually

54
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:21.600
it was some really random and it was like something

55
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:24.319
the Corner or something, and it was the Jackson five

56
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:29.399
and apparently it was a big hit in America. Never

57
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:34.920
heard the song before. So I'm just going to go

58
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:39.000
through nineteen eighty, so the top charts in this is

59
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:45.839
the first twentieth of the first nineteen eighty Brass in Pockets,

60
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:51.720
the Pretenders. Okay, so I'm not gonna I'm just gonna

61
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:55.000
go through a lot of these songs I'm not necessarily

62
00:04:55.040 --> 00:05:00.839
gonna remember. But then if I heard it, I probably think, oh,

63
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.000
but I'm not going to hear it because I'm doing this.

64
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:10.120
I can't play music, not chart music. It'd be nice

65
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:14.879
if I could, because I'd like to do a kind

66
00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:18.120
of like a weekly radio show where I played music

67
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:22.040
that I like, maybe even did I like the I do,

68
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:24.879
Maybe doing too one show of the weekend, maybe on

69
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:30.680
a sad day, where I talk music I like, and

70
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:36.319
then the Sunday show could be a request show. But

71
00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:38.040
it doesn't seem to be any way of doing that,

72
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:44.519
like legally doing that without it costing money, which is

73
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:47.720
a shame because Spotify used to allow that a few

74
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:52.040
years back, and I did do a few episodes where

75
00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:56.800
I could just do a mixture of this and play

76
00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:58.560
a song, so I'd like to talk about the song,

77
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:01.360
what it meant to me, you know, all that stuff,

78
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:05.680
all that drivel, and then played this song, so it's

79
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:11.079
kind of yeah, So I'm looking at this my girl

80
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:20.560
from Madness, My Girl, my girl, so it's my girl.

81
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:24.560
I liked that. I liked everything Madness did, so I

82
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:27.240
don't remember that particular song off the top of my head.

83
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:31.519
But then here number four, I'm in the mood for Dancing,

84
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:37.160
one of my favorite songs that I never even think

85
00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:42.319
about me in the mood for dancing. I actually dreamt

86
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.120
about the Nolan sisters last night. I dated one of

87
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:52.839
them in my dream. That is very strange if they

88
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:59.959
random as well, so it's kind of I mean, number

89
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.199
one was brass in Pocket. The Pretender's number two is

90
00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:06.279
with You I'm Born Again Billy Preston and so Rita.

91
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:09.879
I probably know both those songs, but I don't. I

92
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:14.959
can't think what they are So nineteen eighty it's kind

93
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.199
of still similar songs from nineteen seventies. It's kind of

94
00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:24.079
the crossover period, isn't it. The music's starting to change,

95
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:27.959
and then at the end of the eighties a song

96
00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:32.480
that the music changed again into being dominated in the

97
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:41.519
UK by Stockhak and Waterman with Kylie Minogue and Jason

98
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:54.079
Donovan and Rick Aslee and Sanita and Yeah, some of

99
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:57.560
the songs were catchy, but I just wasn't. It wasn't

100
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:03.480
for me. Although I did like Rick Cassley his voice.

101
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:08.959
I didn't really like his songs, the hits, but he

102
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:13.199
did do when I Fall in Love, like the ballad

103
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:16.399
and it's very good. I saw him sing it alive.

104
00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:23.480
Such a great singer. But you know, anyway, I'm in

105
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:27.600
the mood for dancing. I remember hearing that, why is

106
00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:37.399
my laptop vibrating? It is a laptop, isn't it. It's weird.

107
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:45.720
I remember being at a wedding, so I guess it

108
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:48.879
must have been nineteen eighty. So I wedd inside of

109
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:58.159
being nine and see to me, Ironba was like tiny,

110
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.799
but I probably was tiny at nine, so yeah, but

111
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:03.840
for some reason I thought it was a lot earlier

112
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:07.399
than that. So the I'm in the mood for dancing

113
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:12.200
was being played and I was dancing, and then my

114
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:15.799
stepmother had a headache or something and she went home

115
00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:22.039
and my dad took me and my three brothers. I

116
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:25.200
guess she must have gone. I don't know who who

117
00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:29.360
the baby was with my little brother, but we all

118
00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:33.519
went out into the sea, which is I think, and

119
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.799
it's nighttime, and I do believe it's the first and

120
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:42.799
only time we ever went into the sea together. I

121
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:45.559
just remember that. And it's the only first time I

122
00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:48.159
ever felt safe in the sea because my dad was there.

123
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:54.639
It's weird, isn't it better? Okay, I want to hold

124
00:09:54.679 --> 00:09:58.799
your hand. Dollar, No, I don't remember that one. I

125
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:05.000
remember Dollar because they were on the Rod Harris Show.

126
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.799
When I was on the Rod Harry Show. But they

127
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:14.919
had one really big hit all Pink Floyd Another Brick

128
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:19.240
in the Wall. I like that song, but I don't

129
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:23.159
really remember it, like when it came out. I kind

130
00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:26.480
of I thought another I thought it was like from

131
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:33.600
the seventies, that song, Oh another break in the war,

132
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:39.559
blah blah, tears of a clown, that beat. It's different

133
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:44.120
for girls. Joe Jackson, I have a dreamer Abba. Yep,

134
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:51.200
it's quite weird because see this is a game kind

135
00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:57.759
of strange because he's nineteen eighty. I thought Abba was

136
00:10:57.799 --> 00:11:02.480
pretty much over and done with, Bye bye nineteen eighty,

137
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:05.200
not over and dig with. But I had like such

138
00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:09.320
a huge success in the seventies. I didn't know they

139
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.720
had any hits in the eighties, but clearly they did

140
00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:16.240
because I have a Dreams brilliant. They peaked at number

141
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:19.639
two though, I have a dream.

142
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:27.360
Yeah, London calling the clash, so this is where the

143
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:28.679
seventies clashed.

144
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:32.360
To see what I did there with the eighties, so

145
00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:37.000
people like the Clash. The Specials kind of carried on

146
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:41.360
from the seventies to the eighties, so they almost kind

147
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:44.960
of created the eighties in a sort of a new way.

148
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:53.159
And London call in I remember that one. But Luke

149
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:59.039
loved the clash London Calling and oh, I forget what

150
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:03.799
the other one group, the Specials too Much, too Young,

151
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:09.159
too much, too young, too much, too young do do

152
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:14.360
do something like that. They did a really good song

153
00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:21.360
called ghost Town. It's down, ah, living in a ghost town,

154
00:12:21.879 --> 00:12:26.080
all the things that are down, something like that. And

155
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:31.200
I actually went to lunch with him, the bloke from

156
00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:35.720
the Specials. He's no longer with us, unfortunately, but I

157
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:39.399
didn't know who he was. So there was this lady

158
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:43.759
called Helen. She was a BBC. She was I think

159
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:45.759
she was self improved at this point, but she was

160
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:53.840
a producer, film producer and TV producer, producer and I

161
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:56.200
don't know why, but we just built a friendship up.

162
00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.720
She'd started doing comedy. We met at a comedy gig

163
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:04.279
and we just hit it off. She was probably in

164
00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:13.080
her thirties. I was what was I twenty And this

165
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:15.399
is in the nineties when I matter, I was probably

166
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:24.200
like twenty two maybe and twenty three. And she used

167
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:26.720
to take me out. It wasn't a relationship, although I

168
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:28.759
started to have I think I started to have a

169
00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:30.480
few feelings for her because I spent so much time

170
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:35.120
with her, but it wasn't a relationship like romance. But

171
00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:39.519
she just liked spending time with me, and she used

172
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.360
to take me to theaters, take me to concerts, take

173
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:48.240
me out for meals. And I kind of got a

174
00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:51.639
chance to see the other side of life, you know,

175
00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:58.519
the side where there was no no penny, no penny counting,

176
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:02.360
no or it's checked what I can afford on the menu.

177
00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:11.200
And it felt quite nice and I did it. Part

178
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:13.480
of people was like, am I taking advantage of her?

179
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:19.039
But I wasn't, because I don't really care like that.

180
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:21.519
In them days, I couldn't care if I was eating

181
00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:26.840
in a top class restaurant or in McDonald's. I really

182
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:31.200
didn't care. As long as I was able to fill

183
00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:37.799
my tummy, that's really, you know, with something tasty hopefully.

184
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.720
But yeah, I think part of the reason it wasn't

185
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:44.919
costing her money to go to a lot of these

186
00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:48.960
concerts because she'd get tickets sent to her because I

187
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:51.759
wanted to give her to give reviews, and because she

188
00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:55.159
was a TV producer and she knew a lot of people,

189
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.279
and so she'd get a lot of comp tickets. See, yeah,

190
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:06.039
I went to one, I went to a concert. I

191
00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:09.200
forget his name that he did. He had one really

192
00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:13.799
big hit American guy with a like all this kind

193
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:20.039
of style hair. What is his name? I forget his name,

194
00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:27.279
really really super good looking bloke and he it's a

195
00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:30.120
really good song as well, like the one that he is,

196
00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:32.159
one of those like really really good songs in the

197
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:38.559
nineties that was like a huge hit, and off the

198
00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:41.639
back of that he was able to sell out concerts

199
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:47.960
and stuff around the world. I guess, oh, it's his name. Anyway,

200
00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:55.679
we went along, we got bored and left because I

201
00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:58.519
only knew one song. I wasn't a fan of his,

202
00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:04.080
but we just couldn't be bothered. It was full of

203
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:09.559
there's a lot of very young females screaming, and I

204
00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:13.519
was like, Okay, this isn't really It was a little bit,

205
00:16:13.559 --> 00:16:16.320
I don't know, just fee a bit strange being there,

206
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:20.320
and I didn't know. If it had been someone that

207
00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:25.919
I knew, I could have got super excited, probably, but

208
00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:30.919
but there's one point when he gets on stage. Everyone's

209
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:35.120
sitting in their chairs in their seats and it's it's

210
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:40.159
I don't know, a theater. There's probably a couple of

211
00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:46.120
thousand people in there, and he's standing there and everyone's

212
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:54.279
clapping and whatever, and he starts talking to everyone, and

213
00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:57.240
you know, he looks great, sounds great, isn't I don't

214
00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:03.759
think he's actually started singing yet. And this surprised me.

215
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:06.680
He said to the audience, he said, you can come

216
00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:10.079
up and is this totally true. I'm not making this up.

217
00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:12.759
He said, you can come up to the front if

218
00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:17.240
you want and scream. You can stand at the front

219
00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:21.160
and scream if you want. So all these girls just

220
00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:24.960
started running up and screaming, and I just thought it

221
00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:30.440
was quite weird that you almost need to instigate it yourself.

222
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:33.480
But yeah, it was. I don't know, it was funny,

223
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:36.039
but we didn't. I don't know if it was that

224
00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:38.880
I didn't want to watch it or that she didn't

225
00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:40.920
want to watch it, the lady I was with. But

226
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:45.000
in the end we left. But I did go to

227
00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:49.880
a few like operas, and I think and I also

228
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:59.200
went to see Waiting for Godo, which had rigged mail

229
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:03.000
and age and Edmondson in and there was a huge

230
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:05.279
wait for it to start because he hadn't turned up

231
00:18:05.359 --> 00:18:07.680
or he was late getting there. I think, Rick mal,

232
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:11.359
I'm pretty sure it's quite weird. Because it was waiting

233
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:13.559
for God, wasn't it. So we were waiting for Rick Mail.

234
00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:18.400
And I think it was like half an hour forty

235
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:25.559
minutes late starting, but everybody wanted to see Rick Mal

236
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:28.440
because Rick Mail. If you don't know who Rick Mail is,

237
00:18:28.759 --> 00:18:32.559
or or Adrian Nipinson if you're not from the UK

238
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:37.640
and you've not heard of them, they were in a

239
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:45.880
TV they're basically heroes of comedy in this country. They're icons. Really.

240
00:18:46.759 --> 00:18:53.319
They were in The Young Ones, which was a anarchic

241
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:58.759
TV show in the eighties early eighties, well eighty three

242
00:18:58.839 --> 00:19:05.319
eighty four, so and so they were both comedians, comedy

243
00:19:05.400 --> 00:19:08.880
actors and stuff. And then they went on and did

244
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:16.440
have their own double act where they was it called

245
00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:20.519
philf Come in what was called Bottom. That's it. They

246
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:24.440
had their own TV show called Bottom, which they performed

247
00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:27.160
all around the country maybe around the world, I don't know.

248
00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:31.920
And that went on for ages long, many many years.

249
00:19:34.039 --> 00:19:36.319
And Rick Mal was also in lots of different like

250
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:46.240
sitcoms and stuff. And I think Adrian Edmondson did he

251
00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:48.599
did a bit more serious stuff later on because he

252
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.440
was in Holby City, so he was really he's just

253
00:19:52.599 --> 00:20:02.079
really good actor. They were both really good actors. But yeah, yeah,

254
00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:10.240
this is that. I remember one that Ricky or did he?

255
00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:14.079
There was? Oh, what's the TV show? It was about

256
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:29.920
a minister called Bastard Alan Bastard and it's very funny.

257
00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:33.160
So Rick Mail, I don't say, Ricky didn't I Rick

258
00:20:33.279 --> 00:20:36.359
Mail was the star of that and it was very good,

259
00:20:36.599 --> 00:20:39.880
very funny. That was in the like eighty six eight

260
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:42.960
and probably about eighty eight times eighty nine. Hey yeah,

261
00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:49.200
yeah nine anyway, but I also so going back to Helen.

262
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:55.200
I went and she said I want to meet up

263
00:20:55.279 --> 00:21:00.240
with her. She lived in where did she live? What's

264
00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:07.319
that movie? A North London movie named after the North

265
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:11.519
London area from a blower did three weddings in a

266
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:18.279
funeral notting Hill. She lived in notting Hill and she

267
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:22.480
lived in this really nice area, big streets, loads of trees.

268
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:27.880
She lived in this flat which was biger than a house.

269
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:34.279
It was like really quite a nice place. I couldn't

270
00:21:34.319 --> 00:21:36.480
find her for ages, honestly, it was like it wasn't

271
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:40.759
on the eight's. It was hidden. Anyway. I went to

272
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:45.279
visit her one day and she I think it's Saturday,

273
00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:48.319
and she said, Oh, I'm going for lunch she would

274
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:52.000
go for lunch. She said, oh, okay, So she went

275
00:21:52.039 --> 00:21:53.759
to lunch and then when we got there, she said, oh,

276
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:57.680
I'm meeting I can't remember her name. I have to

277
00:21:57.799 --> 00:22:04.640
put it in now the special. See. I didn't realize.

278
00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:12.640
Okay 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 --> 00:22:19.240
I didn't like the idea of that. But I said, oh,

281
00:22:19.400 --> 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 --> 00:22:35.119
I said, yeah, it means nothing to me. And so

284
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:38.160
he came along and they were just talking and had known

285
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:41.640
each other, seemed like forever, good friends, and it was

286
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:46.200
really friendly, really nice bloke, and she was talking about

287
00:22:46.200 --> 00:22:48.599
what's he up to, and they were talking about music

288
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:50.680
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
00:22:55.920 --> 00:23:00.119
mention to me that he was a big star like

291
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:02.839
he'd been in I think three big bands in the UK.

292
00:23:05.799 --> 00:23:08.240
Terry Hall. I mean, he's not around anymore, but he was.

293
00:23:09.799 --> 00:23:15.240
He kind of was is it Scar? He almost kind

294
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:18.759
of I think created Scar, a sort of certain type

295
00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:27.279
of music, which then led to Madness and maybe Adam

296
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:33.319
Andiants should we say possibly, I don't know. Anyway, very

297
00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:35.839
influential and had loads of people in the band. It

298
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:39.279
wasn't just like three people or four people. There was lots,

299
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:43.160
So he was never going to make a huge amount

300
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:46.400
of money if he was shared out amongst everyone, and

301
00:23:46.440 --> 00:23:48.759
I quite like that. I think he was just having

302
00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:53.200
fun with his friends, you know. And they did such

303
00:23:53.240 --> 00:23:56.559
a great song, ghost Town, which was number one for

304
00:23:56.559 --> 00:23:59.359
a couple of weeks, but that's later on in the eighties.

305
00:24:01.039 --> 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
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:15.400
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
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:28.480
like the charts from the nineteen eighties because I'm going

310
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:32.279
to struggle to get through just one week. So if

311
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:35.519
you think about that, that's going to be fifty two

312
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:41.400
weeks times by ten years, five hundred and twenty recordings,

313
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:47.400
five hundred and twenty years, five hundred and twenty years. Really,

314
00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:53.119
so each year is going to be one Yeah, it's

315
00:24:53.119 --> 00:24:54.680
going to take me one year to do isn't it

316
00:24:55.680 --> 00:25:04.000
fifty two, which means maybe I should have started in

317
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:07.440
nineteen seventy. But then that wouldn't make sense with it

318
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:09.720
because that means I have to live to be another

319
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:16.079
fifty five years old. But then by the time I'm

320
00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:19.400
in another fifty five years, there'll be another fifty five

321
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:30.880
years to talk about. Oh, unless I just say my

322
00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:37.720
favorite songs, So this could be the first episode of

323
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:43.359
my favorite songs, But then I've already started it on

324
00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:51.680
the boring Monday. Perhaps if I hadn't mentioned boring Monday's objects,

325
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:55.880
but then I keep mentioning boring Monday's objects Monday's boring

326
00:25:55.920 --> 00:26:02.559
objects rather, I don't know anyways, So I'm talking, we're

327
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:07.079
just having a nice chat. See if i'd known but

328
00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:11.319
known how I was back then when the waiter came

329
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:17.759
around and sort of said, oh, are you ready to

330
00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:22.400
are you ready to order? How could I not have said,

331
00:26:23.279 --> 00:26:28.200
what are the specials? Today? Watched Today's specials? Because he

332
00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:31.440
was in a bank called the specials, and I looked stupid.

333
00:26:31.920 --> 00:26:36.759
It looked really dumb. I'd have found it hilarious as well.

334
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:40.519
At the time. He probably wouldn't have done she might

335
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:43.960
have done. I don't know. She might have just been embarrassed,

336
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:46.200
but I think that was part of the deal. I

337
00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:49.319
was quite embarrassing. I think she quite found that quite amusing.

338
00:26:50.319 --> 00:26:58.920
And he was lovely, really nice bloke. Now back then

339
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:03.799
I was did not like meeting new people. I've never

340
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:08.400
really enjoyed meeting new people. I'm okay once I meet them.

341
00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:12.359
Once I've kind of kind of got to know if

342
00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:15.720
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
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:24.279
an hour or two, like, okay, I haven't got to

345
00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:30.200
see them again. But when it comes to like working,

346
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:33.319
or someone moving in and like to a building or

347
00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:35.160
into a house that I'm living in when I was

348
00:27:35.200 --> 00:27:38.359
in the pastor or me moving into a new home

349
00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:42.440
and having to sort of kind of get to know

350
00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:45.799
new people, or me starting a new job, Yeah, I've

351
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:55.200
never never enjoyed that. But it's weird because eventually you

352
00:27:55.319 --> 00:28:01.480
just get to know people, don't you. It's standard. I

353
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:05.279
mean when I started doing taekwondo, I remember, what was

354
00:28:05.319 --> 00:28:12.279
I thirty? Now I was forty one? Now I was

355
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:19.279
I forty one, I was forty. I was forty years old.

356
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:24.319
And I started doing time try yeah taekwondo, and I

357
00:28:24.359 --> 00:28:29.480
didn't know anyone there, and eventually I kind of got

358
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:32.160
to know so many people. And I was quite friendly

359
00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:36.119
with the instructor because he was more my age than

360
00:28:36.119 --> 00:28:38.559
anyone else, because he was about ten years old than me.

361
00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:44.400
A lot of other people were like ten years fifteen

362
00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:48.160
years old, twenty years old, twenty five. You know, there's

363
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:51.359
a lot of much younger people than me. I was

364
00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:54.359
the youngest, but I wasn't the fattest. I was the

365
00:28:54.400 --> 00:29:01.759
second fettest, the second fettest, but he was much more.

366
00:29:01.839 --> 00:29:03.880
I don't call other people fab I'm just saying, okay,

367
00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:11.640
well I was the second most rotund. And he was

368
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:16.200
a lot fitter than I was. And I remember thinking

369
00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:19.440
back to that time, thinking, because I know I lost

370
00:29:19.480 --> 00:29:25.599
weight when I was doing it, and after probably six months,

371
00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:31.079
i'd slim down. And I remember that because the instructor

372
00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:34.960
is saying you've lost weight. I said, oh, thanks, and

373
00:29:35.039 --> 00:29:37.319
I believed him, because why would someone lie about that.

374
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:44.160
Let's to be crawledn't it. Especially if I start walking

375
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:47.920
around about the top on thinking I'm slim now and

376
00:29:47.960 --> 00:29:52.240
then everyone's laughing at me. It's like no, the police

377
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:55.119
are arresting me. He's like, oh, but your boob's back

378
00:29:55.200 --> 00:30:02.680
inside your brah. Wow. And I see a picture recently

379
00:30:02.720 --> 00:30:08.920
that I've got of that time, and there's a picture

380
00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:14.240
of my belly just flopping over the belt. It's like, wow,

381
00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:21.160
that's me having lost weight. Crazy, And I was standing

382
00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:29.400
there thinking I was a slim Wow, too much? Too young?

383
00:30:29.640 --> 00:30:32.759
Do do do? Forget that? I don't know anyway, So

384
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:38.680
I'm looking at the spirits having flown the beds? Is

385
00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:48.400
it love Your after Rose Royce, Spacer Jazz Carnival, seventeen Regents, Rappers, Delight,

386
00:30:48.599 --> 00:30:51.480
the sugar Hill Gang. I don't know any of these

387
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:56.680
day trip to Bagner to bangor if I only want

388
00:30:56.720 --> 00:31:00.000
to be with you? I only want to be with you?

389
00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:02.039
Do Do Do Do? Do?

390
00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:01.960
Do?

391
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:05.759
Do? Do Do Do? Was that done by quite a

392
00:31:05.759 --> 00:31:10.400
few different people? It peaked at number four the tourists

393
00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:13.119
I only want to be with you? Wasn't there a

394
00:31:13.240 --> 00:31:18.200
really famous person that sung that, like really famous, like

395
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:23.200
in the sixties or seventies or something. So I remember

396
00:31:23.240 --> 00:31:26.640
the song. I knowed the song song, but I don't

397
00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:33.279
know which version that was. Living by Numbers Escape Rupert

398
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:38.319
Holmes the Peniicolada song. I probably know that, but I

399
00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:41.640
can't think of it working for the Yankee Dollar Skids.

400
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:46.720
I'm beginning to think this is not a UK charts

401
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:53.920
This is all it is. It is, it is, it is,

402
00:31:53.960 --> 00:31:56.640
it is Okay, it just seemed like the songs I've

403
00:31:56.640 --> 00:32:01.279
never heard of. But yeah, is this love that I feeling?

404
00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:07.000
Is this the love? Is that the one the Rose Royce?

405
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:13.599
If it is, then it's a great song. Rappers Delight

406
00:32:13.680 --> 00:32:17.519
the sugar Hill Gang. Nope, I don't know. It sounds

407
00:32:17.559 --> 00:32:23.359
familiar like the song that means that. The sound, the sound,

408
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:27.319
the title Rappers Delight and then the sugar Hill Gangs.

409
00:32:27.359 --> 00:32:35.480
I've heard of the sugar Hill Gang working for the

410
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:40.799
Yankee Dollar Skids. Too Hot cooling a gang? Too hot,

411
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:46.599
too hot. I'm in the mood for being too hot.

412
00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:51.400
I feel like being too hot. Maybe that's Cooling the Gang.

413
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:56.359
I probably know that song, but it's not my calling again,

414
00:32:56.480 --> 00:33:00.400
go to as it were. So when I was DJ,

415
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:03.559
Cooling the Gang songs were quite popularly, quite a few,

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

417
00:33:09.240 --> 00:33:14.079
but I don't remember too Hot, buzz buzz a didd

418
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:18.519
lit Matchbox. No, it's number thirty. Don't know that one.

419
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:22.680
I probably do, but I can't see off just from

420
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:28.400
the title. There's no image or anything. My feet keep

421
00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:34.839
dancing cheek or chick thirty one. No Blue Peter by

422
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:44.240
Mike Oldfield. Now I'm surprised at that. The reason I'm

423
00:33:44.240 --> 00:33:50.720
surprised because I know who my Coldfield is. I know

424
00:33:51.480 --> 00:33:57.000
Blue Peter. It's the Blue Peter theme tune for one

425
00:33:57.039 --> 00:34:03.279
of the most famous children's TV shows in the UK history,

426
00:34:03.359 --> 00:34:07.000
Blue Peter, and possibly the longest running. I don't know

427
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:12.519
if it's still going now, and but it was like

428
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:17.400
do do do do? Do? Do? Do do do? So

429
00:34:17.440 --> 00:34:21.960
I'm thinking maybe Mike Oldfield was asked to revamp it

430
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:28.320
and make it sound better. Okay, did Mike Coldfield? Did

431
00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:35.360
he do the the No? Did he Mike Coldfield? Did he?

432
00:34:36.559 --> 00:34:39.599
Did he do Trouebler bells? Am I thinking of someone else?

433
00:34:41.199 --> 00:34:46.880
Which makes him one of the most famous producers of music?

434
00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:55.679
Did he do? Did he? Did he do the Big

435
00:34:55.719 --> 00:35:01.920
Brother theme tune? Mm hmm? Anyway, I know the tune

436
00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:05.840
like really well because I've heard it thousands of times

437
00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:10.000
when I was a kid. Probably, but I don't remember

438
00:35:10.039 --> 00:35:12.440
it being in a chart, but clearly it was for

439
00:35:12.599 --> 00:35:18.599
nineteen twenty four weeks. It peaked at number nineteen No.

440
00:35:18.719 --> 00:35:20.840
It was in charts for eight weeks, peaked at number

441
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:27.480
nineteen low. This week was number twenty four. Crowd of

442
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:31.599
the country Kenny Rodgers. I think it was someone like

443
00:35:31.679 --> 00:35:36.280
Kenny Rodgers. I will recognize this song when I hear it,

444
00:35:39.079 --> 00:35:42.880
but I won't necessarily know the title of the song

445
00:35:44.719 --> 00:35:51.960
because really, unlike in I'm going to say America, because

446
00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:54.920
I don't know about other countries. I know in America

447
00:35:55.559 --> 00:35:59.679
a country in western music is it was huge and

448
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:07.199
it still is huge in this country country and western

449
00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:10.159
country and is it country? No country where it's not

450
00:36:10.199 --> 00:36:12.920
country and westn is it country music? Sorry? Country music.

451
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:21.159
There's always been a place for it here and there's

452
00:36:21.199 --> 00:36:25.440
been some huge stars that have had, you know, big

453
00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:31.639
hits from the country world music world over the decades

454
00:36:31.679 --> 00:36:34.599
in the UK, but it's not it's never been a

455
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:43.159
dominant music here, so you're unlikely to see like a

456
00:36:43.239 --> 00:36:49.639
Top forty where you've got ten songs from the country

457
00:36:50.440 --> 00:36:53.559
country music. But some of the really big people like

458
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:58.920
Dolly Parton, but there was more herb popular songs that

459
00:36:59.400 --> 00:37:02.639
became pop. Pillar that sounds weird, isn't it. It's like

460
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:13.880
nine to five and Joelene things like that. So I

461
00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:17.239
actually had an uncle who was in a country band

462
00:37:17.559 --> 00:37:19.519
and it was the biggest country band in the UK.

463
00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:24.800
He won awards like the most popular country band every year,

464
00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:27.480
and I was so impressed until I realized there was

465
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:31.559
only four bands in the country. I'm joking. He was

466
00:37:31.599 --> 00:37:33.360
so good. I went to one of his gigs once

467
00:37:33.440 --> 00:37:40.079
and he was I think he was doing it for

468
00:37:40.119 --> 00:37:45.920
probably four decades, five decades seriously, from just did it

469
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:51.639
forever that he started off probably doing like sixties music,

470
00:37:51.679 --> 00:37:56.199
and then he kind of moved into country in the seventies. Well,

471
00:37:56.199 --> 00:37:58.320
when the sixties country has been around forever, isn't it

472
00:37:59.519 --> 00:38:01.960
not the with the trees? I'm talking about country music.

473
00:38:03.880 --> 00:38:08.840
Got to Love Somebody sits the sledge, got to Love Somebody,

474
00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:14.199
I'm in the mood forgot to love Somebody, for loving Somebody,

475
00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:17.480
I don't know that one. Then it peaked at number

476
00:38:17.519 --> 00:38:22.920
thirty four, so that that wasn't like a big strange

477
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:28.239
little girl sad Cafe, Nope, young Blood UFO, Sarah Fleetwood,

478
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:31.559
Mac don't know that one, My Simple Heart, the Three

479
00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:38.199
Degrees thirty nine, Paradise Bird, the Letter Wonderland, the Commodorees.

480
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:57.119
Now I probably do know those. However, January nineteen eighty

481
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:03.320
first to twentieth twentieth is the wrong. It's doing wrong.

482
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:08.480
Why is it doing that for six of the first

483
00:39:10.079 --> 00:39:14.559
six of the first first of the first should we

484
00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:22.400
see first of the first twenty for January nineteen eighty, right,

485
00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:33.360
that's the first one that you can do charts, Okay,

486
00:39:33.480 --> 00:39:38.480
So twelfth is September? Why why have you done that for?

487
00:39:39.079 --> 00:39:43.000
Why twelve September? I don't want twelve to September twenty

488
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:47.239
twenty five is taking away from me. It's say no,

489
00:39:49.280 --> 00:39:52.639
do what I told you, or don't do anything at all. Stop, no,

490
00:39:54.960 --> 00:39:57.679
go all the way back to nineteen eighty. It's going

491
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:02.840
to take absolutely years if that won't even let me

492
00:40:02.880 --> 00:40:05.519
go only going back as far as twenty twenty one?

493
00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:16.599
Why why are you doing this? Okay? So for some

494
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:20.400
reason it's blocked me out, and I don't understand why.

495
00:40:21.800 --> 00:40:25.360
I don't get Oh, let's go to Wikipedia see if

496
00:40:25.400 --> 00:40:29.119
that will do it. Nineteen eighty best selling single of

497
00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:38.840
the year, Madonna had six number ones juney eighties. So

498
00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:46.239
I was the Eighties and a Music Week June eighties

00:40:46.280 --> 00:40:48.400

which took the UK chart number one spot. Madonna was

501
00:40:53.480 --> 00:40:57.039
the most successful single act of the decade, as six

502
00:40:57.079 --> 00:41:00.679
of US singles reached the top spot. George Michael had

503
00:41:00.760 --> 00:41:05.320
significant involvement with eight number one singles, with two number

504
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:10.000

of Wham and one as a duet with Aretha Frank

506
00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:18.719
LNN and one as a member of a charity supergroup

507
00:41:19.159 --> 00:41:29.840
band Aid. Six singles Oh Okay and Frankie Goes to

508
00:41:29.880 --> 00:41:35.280
Hollywood received the longest number one, which was nine weeks

509
00:41:35.320 --> 00:41:41.480
in nineteen eighty four two Tribes. The best selling single

510
00:41:41.519 --> 00:41:44.360
of the decade nineteen eighties was do Their Know It's

511
00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:48.480
Christmas by band Aid, selling more than three point five

512
00:41:48.519 --> 00:41:54.639
million copies and passing Mula of King Tire by Wings

513
00:41:55.000 --> 00:42:00.719
to become the best selling single ever altogether. Now My

514
00:42:01.360 --> 00:42:10.480
Looking No Needful the only song I've ever enjoyed listening

515
00:42:10.519 --> 00:42:17.599
to bagpipes. I'm not a fan of bad pipes, bad pipes, bagpipes.

516
00:42:21.280 --> 00:42:28.280
I know no, Sorry, I can't I don't know. I

517
00:42:28.280 --> 00:42:32.000
think it's just just not really, my ears aren't suited

518
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:37.000
for it. I'm sure they're amazing. My ears don't can't

519
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:43.199
adapt to bagpipes, and not everybody that plays bagpipes in

520
00:42:43.280 --> 00:42:49.519
public trying to figure what the correct words is not

521
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:58.360
everyone that plays bagpipes in public should play bagpipes in public.

522
00:43:01.840 --> 00:43:06.119
I think it's quite a difficult instrument to learn. I

523
00:43:06.159 --> 00:43:10.360
think it must be, otherwise more people would be good

524
00:43:10.400 --> 00:43:13.440
at it. I'm sure, I'm sure they are, but just

525
00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:17.079
you know, I'm moving on. Nineteen eighty saw the introduction

526
00:43:17.119 --> 00:43:20.519
of the cassette single. Really, I thought that was around

527
00:43:20.519 --> 00:43:25.119
for ages. I used to buy the cassette single along

528
00:43:25.199 --> 00:43:29.000
the seven inch and twelve inch format and nineteen eighty seven.

529
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:33.679
In nineteen eighty seven, major record labels developed a common

530
00:43:33.719 --> 00:43:44.199
format for the CD single. I'll tell you what I

531
00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:47.519
didn't even I don't think. I started listening to CDs

532
00:43:49.000 --> 00:43:57.119
till the late nineties, so it took me ten years

533
00:43:57.400 --> 00:44:01.840
before I even accepted the CDs existed. Honestly, it's still

534
00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:13.440
buying tapes. Best selling single of the year, Wait a

535
00:44:13.480 --> 00:44:18.440
Minute nineteen seventy, okay, nineteen eighty so it's going to

536
00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:20.599
give me. This is for the whole year, so I'm

537
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:22.800
not going to go by week now because it's to

538
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:40.199
take ages number. This is the number. So why has

539
00:44:40.199 --> 00:44:46.840
it got a number four? It's very weird. So let's

540
00:44:46.880 --> 00:44:49.320
have a look. These were the ones weeks at number one.

541
00:44:49.360 --> 00:44:52.199
These were the number one songs. Pink Floyd and Other,

542
00:44:52.280 --> 00:45:00.639
Brick in the Wall, Pretenders, Brass in a Pocket.

543
00:44:56.760 --> 00:44:56.840
And.

544
00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:05.119
Blondie Atomic. I loved Blondie, Blondie. See see when I

545
00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:07.360
get asked the question on a Q and A Friday,

546
00:45:07.360 --> 00:45:14.280
I'll say, oh, I'll go to the music and I think, well, Madonna, Terrence,

547
00:45:14.320 --> 00:45:18.079
Trent Derby, and I'll sort of think about Michael Jackson

548
00:45:18.360 --> 00:45:25.800
and the Beatles and Stevie Wonder and George Michael and

549
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:33.280
different various people that I really loved a lot. But

550
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:36.079
there was a lot of songs, a lot of singers,

551
00:45:36.079 --> 00:45:39.440
a lot of bands that I never bought an album

552
00:45:39.480 --> 00:45:45.360
off ever, Blondie and I love so many songs that

553
00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:51.559
Blondie did, particularly the Tide is High, because I remember

554
00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:58.440
my I couldn't tell you the exact year. I could

555
00:45:58.440 --> 00:46:01.000
because I could look it up, couldn't I Actually, let's

556
00:46:01.000 --> 00:46:04.400
look it up. Why am I being so so coy?

557
00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:08.920
The Tide is High, which I would say is one

558
00:46:08.920 --> 00:46:16.519
of their biggest hits, The Tide is High. Come on, Blondie,

559
00:46:16.880 --> 00:46:25.760
Blondie and discography Blondie. Right. I want singles, not albums

560
00:46:27.960 --> 00:46:36.440
essential great, No, I want singles, live albums. These are

561
00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:43.599
just albums. I want singles. Where's the singles? Oh? Here

562
00:46:43.639 --> 00:46:50.440
we go, right, So let's go down to the correct year.

563
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:54.440
So I'm just going down. They started in nineteen seventy

564
00:46:54.480 --> 00:47:00.119
six and they had a number one in Belgium and

565
00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:07.559
number one in New Zealand with Denise Denise Denise UK

566
00:47:07.760 --> 00:47:11.199
was number two, So that was great song. Loved that.

567
00:47:11.199 --> 00:47:14.320
That was nineteen seventy eight. So yeah, I didn't realize

568
00:47:14.360 --> 00:47:19.840
that Hanging on the Teared the Phone that was seventy

569
00:47:19.880 --> 00:47:23.159
eight as well, and it reached number five in the UK.

570
00:47:25.679 --> 00:47:32.559
See that's weird, right, Why are none of those listed

571
00:47:32.840 --> 00:47:39.440
in the US. So Denise Denise like didn't even register.

572
00:47:39.800 --> 00:47:44.599
Like they didn't release it in America an American group.

573
00:47:44.599 --> 00:47:48.480
I do believe Hanging on Telephone didn't release in America

574
00:47:48.519 --> 00:47:53.679
because it didn't chart. How please explain that to me?

575
00:47:54.000 --> 00:47:59.360
How great song? Two? Great Songs got number five here,

576
00:48:02.159 --> 00:48:07.199
so we charted the highest in the UK and Denise

577
00:48:07.960 --> 00:48:11.480
charted the second highest in the UK. But it went

578
00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:15.559
to number one in New Zealand and Belgium. And then

579
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:21.880
in nineteen seventy nine, Heart of Glass reached number one

580
00:48:22.679 --> 00:48:27.840
in the UK but also in the US, so that

581
00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:32.519
must have been their big breakthrough hit. It reached number

582
00:48:32.519 --> 00:48:39.760
one in Australia, in Canada, Gerbil or Germany, probably not

583
00:48:39.840 --> 00:48:49.760
Germany and New Zealand. So big hit reached got silver Silver,

584
00:48:50.960 --> 00:48:55.280
I don't know what I'm saying, Silver's heart Glass. Then

585
00:48:57.119 --> 00:49:01.440
Sunday Girl, it didn't didn't even get in the charts

586
00:49:01.440 --> 00:49:06.199
in America. This is nineteen seventy nine. Wait a minute,

587
00:49:06.639 --> 00:49:09.760
Heart Glasses seventy nine. Sunday Girl got to number one

588
00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:18.360
in the UK again and also Ireland, but it didn't

589
00:49:18.440 --> 00:49:24.360
chart in America. And then one way or another, one

590
00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:27.639
way or another, I'm going to get yeah, I'm going

591
00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:31.599
to get it one way or another. See you don't

592
00:49:31.639 --> 00:49:34.679
anyone remember that it was a good song. It did

593
00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:39.960
chart in America, twenty four got to got to number

594
00:49:40.079 --> 00:49:46.480
ninety eight in the UK, so maybe people in this

595
00:49:46.559 --> 00:49:52.480
country were not so we're getting bored, which I understand

596
00:49:52.719 --> 00:50:00.280
because Blondie was amazing Dreaming. So in America this started

597
00:50:00.320 --> 00:50:03.719
to get more like hits, but they were still only

598
00:50:03.719 --> 00:50:11.519
getting like twenty four, twenty seven, eighty four when Dreaming

599
00:50:11.599 --> 00:50:16.239
got to number two in the UK, twenty seven in America.

600
00:50:16.800 --> 00:50:22.440
Union City Blue thirteen in the UK didn't even register

601
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:26.239
in America, and the hardest part, the hardest part, got

602
00:50:26.239 --> 00:50:29.960
to eighty four. The thing is number eighty four in

603
00:50:29.960 --> 00:50:34.199
an American chart when you got three hundred plus thousand

604
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:38.800
people compared to probably back then, I don't know what,

605
00:50:38.840 --> 00:50:44.119
fifty fifty five thousand, three hundred million, probably three hundred

606
00:50:44.119 --> 00:50:48.360
and ten million or twenty million in America. Here there

607
00:50:48.400 --> 00:50:52.480
was probably about fifty, well fifty five fifty six million

608
00:50:53.199 --> 00:50:56.920
in nineteen eighty, nineteen seventy nine, fifty million. It's a

609
00:50:56.920 --> 00:51:00.880
lot more now. And then at the end of nineteen

610
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:06.800
seventy nine, call me number one in America, number one

611
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:12.719
in the UK. So it's weird. So nineteen seventy nine,

612
00:51:13.559 --> 00:51:21.159
so nineteen for the looks of this, so heart glass,

613
00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:30.000
I'm confused. It's a heart of glass, So call me

614
00:51:30.000 --> 00:51:32.079
who was nineteen eighty So they've got one number one

615
00:51:32.800 --> 00:51:37.119
in America Heart Glass in nineteen seventy nine. That was

616
00:51:37.159 --> 00:51:40.159
their first song that got to number one, and in

617
00:51:40.280 --> 00:51:44.280
nineteen eighty call Me got to number one and in

618
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:50.599
the UK as well, So technically we appreciated and realized

619
00:51:50.639 --> 00:51:58.800
how wonderful Madonna, how wonderful Blondie was kind of before

620
00:51:58.840 --> 00:52:04.960
anyone else. It's only US, Belgium, maybe Ireland, Canada were

621
00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:12.280
the only ones that really appreciated how brilliant they were.

622
00:52:13.639 --> 00:52:16.679
But call Me that was there. I guess that rule

623
00:52:17.920 --> 00:52:19.800
you go. I would have said that breakthrough because I

624
00:52:19.840 --> 00:52:23.880
said I had a number one in America and it

625
00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:27.800
went gold. So they made a lot of money from

626
00:52:27.800 --> 00:52:33.440
that one song, so it's successful wise, but it's just

627
00:52:33.480 --> 00:52:36.719
weird that they didn't didn't getting a top ten with

628
00:52:36.760 --> 00:52:39.280
any of the other songs until call Me in nineteen

629
00:52:39.360 --> 00:52:45.840
eighty number one, number one any America. Atomic only got

630
00:52:45.840 --> 00:52:49.320
to number thirty nine in America. What is wrong with you?

631
00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:53.320
People got to number one here, We're the only country

632
00:52:53.320 --> 00:53:01.920
that appreciated Atomic thirty nine. You do, I realize when

633
00:53:01.960 --> 00:53:04.480
we did our charts in the UK, we didn't go

634
00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:09.679
below forty. It was also top forty, so any charts

635
00:53:09.719 --> 00:53:16.519
below that wasn't even mentioned ever. They've got no publicity

636
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:20.800
in the UK. Day is in the United Kingdom of England,

637
00:53:21.039 --> 00:53:29.320
Commonwealth Britain. Atomic So Atomic got to number one in

638
00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:34.360
the UK, but it also charted in the top twenty

639
00:53:34.400 --> 00:53:38.679
in every other country, well apart from one America and

640
00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:52.280
which is thirty nine and Canada. Right, so you've got

641
00:53:52.280 --> 00:53:55.800
heroes that didn't chart at all. I don't know what

642
00:53:55.920 --> 00:54:02.760
happened there, a non album single and then my favoritest

643
00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:05.519
song that they ever did, And this is what I

644
00:54:05.559 --> 00:54:09.840
was going to talk about. This was nineteen eighty, which

645
00:54:09.840 --> 00:54:16.280
is weird because I was, yeah, I suppose it makes sense.

646
00:54:16.679 --> 00:54:21.400
Nineteen eighty Does it say when? Does it say when?

647
00:54:22.159 --> 00:54:24.400
From looks of it, it's at the end of nineteen eighty,

648
00:54:24.480 --> 00:54:27.679
so probably the winter nineteen eighty so I turned ten.

649
00:54:28.679 --> 00:54:34.199
My oldest brother was fourteen. He had a job at

650
00:54:34.280 --> 00:54:38.639
Tesco or some supermarket up the road around the corner

651
00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:39.960
part time.

652
00:54:41.440 --> 00:54:41.840
And.

653
00:54:43.920 --> 00:54:48.840
We used to get He was more obsessed about the

654
00:54:48.960 --> 00:54:52.000
charts than I was. Now. I was happy to wait

655
00:54:52.039 --> 00:54:56.440
till Thursday to watch it on Top of the Pops,

656
00:54:57.880 --> 00:55:04.079
but the actual chart was released on a Tuesday, and

657
00:55:06.039 --> 00:55:09.800
the only way I could spoil, you know, I kind

658
00:55:09.840 --> 00:55:13.119
of had to listen to it on a Tuesday in

659
00:55:13.239 --> 00:55:17.400
order for him not to spoil it for me because

660
00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:21.239
he'd tell me who was number one otherwise, because there'd

661
00:55:21.239 --> 00:55:23.119
be two days till it was actually released on Top

662
00:55:23.159 --> 00:55:27.480
of the Pops on a Thursday night. So he used

663
00:55:27.480 --> 00:55:29.199
to listen to it on a Tuesday. And what we

664
00:55:29.239 --> 00:55:32.639
did is, I remember one particular night he was working,

665
00:55:32.920 --> 00:55:36.679
it was dark outside. I'm adding that for effect. I

666
00:55:36.719 --> 00:55:41.920
don't know who knows. I can't remember, but I remember

667
00:55:42.119 --> 00:55:46.039
taping the Top forty and I'm guessing it was on

668
00:55:46.159 --> 00:55:52.079
Radio one and they did the the Top forty charts

669
00:55:52.320 --> 00:55:59.719
and I recorded the whole thing. Now it needed probably

670
00:55:59.760 --> 00:56:02.119
the tape needed to be turned over in order to

671
00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:04.039
record the other side of the tape because of the

672
00:56:04.400 --> 00:56:07.480
length of the show, which was probably three hours long,

673
00:56:07.679 --> 00:56:16.559
maybe two hours long. And he kept saying, don't tell me,

674
00:56:18.000 --> 00:56:24.079
don't tell me who's Who's number one. I don't know why,

675
00:56:24.719 --> 00:56:26.880
but he was looking so he was really looking forward

676
00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:30.000
to it. I wanted Debbie Harriet to be number one

677
00:56:32.159 --> 00:56:34.320
because I love the Tide is High. It's my favorite

678
00:56:34.400 --> 00:56:39.320
song at the time. And should I sing it to you.

679
00:56:42.320 --> 00:56:46.440
The tired is high, the tired is high, the tide

680
00:56:46.599 --> 00:56:53.360
is high, the tide is ha ha hi, And I

681
00:56:53.360 --> 00:56:56.840
remember it's weird. I got this memory. I remember we

682
00:56:56.960 --> 00:57:00.159
had this like stacked system. It was like all and

683
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:03.920
one with like two There was a record player at

684
00:57:03.960 --> 00:57:07.159
the top with a plastic cover that you piled up,

685
00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:17.119
and there was a radio in built, and then further

686
00:57:17.599 --> 00:57:23.400
down there was two tape recorders side by side which

687
00:57:23.440 --> 00:57:29.360
you could tape. You could tape to tape, and then

688
00:57:31.599 --> 00:57:34.920
at the bottom I think there was roomed for albums

689
00:57:34.920 --> 00:57:41.679
to be put and it had this glass kind of

690
00:57:41.719 --> 00:57:47.239
like dark glass door with a magnet so you could

691
00:57:47.280 --> 00:57:51.760
just push it and it had just click shut, you know, magnetized.

692
00:57:56.440 --> 00:57:59.000
I think the reason I remember I think I think

693
00:57:59.039 --> 00:58:02.119
my dad still got it. Actually, I think he's still

694
00:58:02.159 --> 00:58:04.480
got it, or he did still have it when I

695
00:58:04.559 --> 00:58:08.800
was living with him in nineteen ninety for a little while,

696
00:58:09.719 --> 00:58:13.760
so I've probably seen it loads of times over the years,

697
00:58:13.760 --> 00:58:18.920
so that's why I remember it. Maybe, 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 --> 00:58:31.199
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 --> 00:58:43.039
around the corner, kept phoning up from work to say,

703
00:58:43.679 --> 00:58:47.079
did you remember? Do you remember to record it? So yes,

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

705
00:58:50.360 --> 00:58:59.000
his break because it was literally thirty seconds walk just

706
00:58:59.079 --> 00:59:02.039
came in to check that we're recording it. It's like, yes,

707
00:59:02.159 --> 00:59:04.239
we know, it's the most important thing in the world.

708
00:59:04.760 --> 00:59:06.760
We're doing it because me and my brother were both

709
00:59:06.760 --> 00:59:12.360
doing it together. My other brother like, what's so important

710
00:59:12.400 --> 00:59:17.039
about this? He said, you don't understand. They don't understand

711
00:59:17.079 --> 00:59:21.239
how important this is. I do wonder if we had

712
00:59:21.280 --> 00:59:26.039
different parents. So, yeah, Tide is High. That was one

713
00:59:26.039 --> 00:59:31.679
of my favorite songs. I don't know why I'm mentioning

714
00:59:31.760 --> 00:59:37.280
the Tiler's High. Why was I talking about Tyler's High Rapture?

715
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:39.960
So that got to number one in America but got

716
00:59:39.960 --> 00:59:43.000
to number five in the UK. I don't even remember

717
00:59:43.039 --> 00:59:48.199
that one, So this is really weird unless it was

718
00:59:48.239 --> 00:59:54.280
a different chart in America. But clearly Blondie was much

719
00:59:54.320 --> 00:59:58.159
bigger in the UK than it was in not in

720
00:59:58.400 --> 01:00:03.559
amounts of people because we've got much smaller population, but

721
01:00:03.639 --> 01:00:10.679
as far as like the percentage, well, the amount. Well,

722
01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:14.559
from a chart perspective, Blondie, we're just reaching a much

723
01:00:14.639 --> 01:00:19.599
higher position. But I'm guessing, like, let's say, for example,

724
01:00:20.199 --> 01:00:25.320
the first number one Half Class in America, that one

725
01:00:25.480 --> 01:00:31.079
song probably sold more singles in America than all of

726
01:00:31.159 --> 01:00:35.679
Blondie's songs did in the UK, all combined, just that

727
01:00:35.800 --> 01:00:40.480
one song in America. So it's you know, you can

728
01:00:40.599 --> 01:00:48.519
look at it different directions. I suppose. Anyway, Blondie was good.

729
01:00:48.519 --> 01:00:53.159
That's all I was trying to say, is I like Blondie.

730
01:00:55.719 --> 01:01:04.519
Fern Kinney, the jazz going Underground and going Underground. I

731
01:01:04.639 --> 01:01:10.440
like that song together we Are Beautiful. It got to

732
01:01:10.519 --> 01:01:14.400
number one. I don't know what that is. So the

733
01:01:14.440 --> 01:01:19.280
Detroit Spinners, I'm working my way back to you, babe.

734
01:01:20.400 --> 01:01:22.000
That was a good song. I like that, And they

735
01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:25.119
got to number two. This is nineteen eighty. I'm still

736
01:01:25.159 --> 01:01:27.840
in nineteen eighty. I've gone from the first week to

737
01:01:27.920 --> 01:01:34.599
the whole year. Deck Sees Midnight Runners. Gino or Gino

738
01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:40.159
got to number two. Johnny Logan, what's another year. This

739
01:01:40.239 --> 01:01:44.199
is seventeenth of May nineteen eighty got to number two,

740
01:01:47.280 --> 01:01:52.639
very first to May. The Mesh a theme from Smash,

741
01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:56.400
a theme from Mesh. I'm not going to read it

742
01:01:56.440 --> 01:02:01.800
out because it's a topic that's not really acceptable to

743
01:02:01.840 --> 01:02:05.679
say it online anymore. But if you watch Mesh, you

744
01:02:05.719 --> 01:02:10.519
know the theme tune. It's I didn't realize I thought

745
01:02:10.599 --> 01:02:15.000
Mesh was because I watched Mesh for the first time

746
01:02:17.280 --> 01:02:25.480
about nineteen eighty four when I got my first TV.

747
01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:28.039
Might be in eighty five, but I think it was

748
01:02:28.039 --> 01:02:31.159
eighty four. I got my first black and white TV,

749
01:02:32.000 --> 01:02:38.519
and I just got these memories. Such it was. It

750
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:41.599
was because I was a bit of a goggle box person.

751
01:02:41.719 --> 01:02:47.360
I was, really I love television. Television was better than

752
01:02:47.400 --> 01:02:51.480
real life for me personally. It's how I felt and

753
01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:55.880
I enjoyed it. It was escapism and it was more

754
01:02:55.920 --> 01:03:00.960
fun than reality. I understand as probably not very healthy,

755
01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:04.239
but it's just the way it was back then. That's

756
01:03:04.239 --> 01:03:12.440
how my life was. And I loved television, absolutely loved it.

757
01:03:16.440 --> 01:03:21.119
And I remember the first time ever outside of weekends

758
01:03:21.159 --> 01:03:23.960
like a I think on a Friday and Saturday night

759
01:03:24.000 --> 01:03:27.039
I could stay up later, but the rest of the

760
01:03:27.039 --> 01:03:31.079
week I was in bed by nine or whatever. Even

761
01:03:32.679 --> 01:03:34.599
I don't know what the cutoff was, but probably nine

762
01:03:34.599 --> 01:03:37.800
o'clock when I was a teenager, earlier on, when I

763
01:03:37.840 --> 01:03:41.559
was younger, maybe nine point thirty, maybe even ten, I

764
01:03:41.559 --> 01:03:50.079
don't know. But once I got on my TV, there

765
01:03:50.119 --> 01:03:55.599
was no bedtime. Bedtime didn't exist anymore. I'd pretend to

766
01:03:55.639 --> 01:03:58.639
go to bed. I mean, I'd be going up at

767
01:03:58.639 --> 01:04:04.039
like seven in the evening. I'm really tired now. I

768
01:04:04.159 --> 01:04:11.840
just made myself you all. I'd say bye, good night everybody,

769
01:04:11.840 --> 01:04:13.440
and I go and get I want to kiss. My

770
01:04:13.599 --> 01:04:15.519
brother would say, are you doing kissing me? I said,

771
01:04:15.559 --> 01:04:18.360
I'm just happy because it's got me TV. And he said, oh,

772
01:04:18.400 --> 01:04:22.480
fair enough, and don't do it again. I said, okay, sorry,

773
01:04:24.079 --> 01:04:26.519
and I go upstairs. I'd just skip up the I

774
01:04:26.519 --> 01:04:28.440
wouldn't skip up the stairs, I don't. Why would I

775
01:04:28.480 --> 01:04:33.239
say that whoever skips up the stairs skipping room gets

776
01:04:33.360 --> 01:04:37.599
tangled on it in the banistone. But yeah, anyway I

777
01:04:37.639 --> 01:04:40.280
walked up the stairs, I might have ran. I could

778
01:04:40.360 --> 01:04:43.639
run back then, but I might just walked at a

779
01:04:43.639 --> 01:04:47.559
steady pace. It's very difficult for me to remember because

780
01:04:47.559 --> 01:04:51.719
I didn't write anything down in my diary, and even

781
01:04:51.719 --> 01:04:54.920
when I did journals over like twenty five year period,

782
01:04:55.119 --> 01:05:00.840
I never mentioned stairs. Just just never came up. I mean,

783
01:05:00.880 --> 01:05:03.519
the only stairs story really is probably when I fell

784
01:05:03.559 --> 01:05:07.719
down the stairs twice is down here, and then when

785
01:05:07.719 --> 01:05:10.599
I was a little kid fell down some stairs while

786
01:05:10.599 --> 01:05:13.239
I was holding a box full of little cars, I think,

787
01:05:17.280 --> 01:05:21.280
I think, so oh yeah, and also well, yeah, I

788
01:05:21.360 --> 01:05:23.239
used to pretend to fall down the stairs I could

789
01:05:23.280 --> 01:05:31.559
get days of school. But it didn't really work very well.

790
01:05:33.440 --> 01:05:37.800
So once I was doing it and I wanted my

791
01:05:38.079 --> 01:05:40.760
step mom to find me at the bottom stairs, I'd

792
01:05:40.760 --> 01:05:43.199
be like, oh, I'll be holding my knee or something,

793
01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:48.000
and it worked a little bit. But on one occasion

794
01:05:48.119 --> 01:05:50.639
she was actually in the bathroom, which is at the

795
01:05:50.639 --> 01:05:54.679
top of the stairs, and she came out as I

796
01:05:54.719 --> 01:05:56.960
was doing it, as I was like pretending to fall down,

797
01:05:58.039 --> 01:06:02.760
and she was watching me the whole time and couldn't

798
01:06:02.760 --> 01:06:09.000
really get away with it anymore. Hmm. I think she

799
01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:12.360
was just watching over the banister. I'm trying to get

800
01:06:12.360 --> 01:06:16.480
my head around. Yeah, yeah, because the bathroom that was

801
01:06:16.639 --> 01:06:21.320
just off of the top of the stairs. Yeah. So

802
01:06:23.280 --> 01:06:25.920
it was so lovely just watching TV, I've got to

803
01:06:25.920 --> 01:06:29.079
see things I've never seen before. Suddenly I could have

804
01:06:29.079 --> 01:06:32.719
watched Kojak if I wanted to or I could watch

805
01:06:33.239 --> 01:06:38.880
or Mash. Never heard of Mesh, I never heard of

806
01:06:41.159 --> 01:06:45.000
I was, 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
01:06:48.239 --> 01:06:52.280
and like wow, it was like a whole new world

809
01:06:52.280 --> 01:06:56.000
opened up to me. The past nine o'clock in the

810
01:06:56.039 --> 01:07:00.679
evening things were happening, and these programs things that I

811
01:07:00.760 --> 01:07:03.840
wasn't allowed to watch, that the family didn't watch together.

812
01:07:06.519 --> 01:07:08.880
That's when I realized are a very different taste in

813
01:07:08.960 --> 01:07:13.480
programs to the family, you know, like my dad and whatever.

814
01:07:13.719 --> 01:07:19.360
They'd watch stuff on a Saturday night that I wouldn't watch.

815
01:07:20.079 --> 01:07:23.199
I'd watch it because it was part of the routine,

816
01:07:23.639 --> 01:07:28.920
the ritual whatever I want to say ritual, I don't

817
01:07:28.960 --> 01:07:36.280
mean anything weird, just just watching television. There's no sacrifices

818
01:07:36.400 --> 01:07:37.119
or anything.

819
01:07:42.039 --> 01:07:48.519
Right, right, kids, Logan's Logan runs finished, the A teams finished, right,

820
01:07:49.760 --> 01:07:52.880
Let's go and get Let's go in the garden, get

821
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:54.960
all the candles out and.

822
01:07:56.400 --> 01:08:02.840
Organized today's sacrifice. So Olivia Newton, John Xana do an

823
01:08:02.880 --> 01:08:08.039
electric light orchestra? Don McLean crying? Is that the one

824
01:08:08.199 --> 01:08:15.719
crying over you? Xana do? I like Xana do? Sana

825
01:08:15.840 --> 01:08:24.000
do Sana Do. I don't know why Ello the Electric

826
01:08:24.119 --> 01:08:27.760
Light Orchestra did another version of Sanna Do with a

827
01:08:27.760 --> 01:08:31.560
different singer. Why why would you need to do that?

828
01:08:33.880 --> 01:08:38.960
I'm not I'm not judging, just asking because Olivia Newton

829
01:08:39.039 --> 01:08:46.199
John I had such an amazing voice odyssey that got

830
01:08:46.239 --> 01:08:49.399
to number two in the charts. Odyssey, I don't know,

831
01:08:49.560 --> 01:08:53.479
use it up and wear it out that toilet paper,

832
01:08:53.520 --> 01:08:57.079
I don't know. Underpants, Abba the Winner takes it all.

833
01:08:57.119 --> 01:09:01.039
I've got number two August Night of August nineteen eighty

834
01:09:02.319 --> 01:09:09.800
The Winner ticks it. It just shows you what I know.

835
01:09:09.880 --> 01:09:13.399
I really thought that Abba had kind of finished. In

836
01:09:13.439 --> 01:09:20.319
seventy nine, David Bowie ashes to Ashes, I got to

837
01:09:20.479 --> 01:09:22.239
number two. So I would have seen it because I

838
01:09:22.279 --> 01:09:25.840
always watched Top of the Pops, so anything in the

839
01:09:25.840 --> 01:09:31.479
top forty I would have seen. Whether or not I

840
01:09:31.720 --> 01:09:34.880
liked it or not, I don't know. I would have

841
01:09:34.920 --> 01:09:39.399
seen it on TV and Ashes to Ash, She's the

842
01:09:40.920 --> 01:09:45.399
jam start number one. I don't remember that one. Kelly

843
01:09:45.439 --> 01:09:49.479
Marie feels like I'm in love. I know that one

844
01:09:49.680 --> 01:09:54.359
they got to number two feels like I'm in love.

845
01:09:55.359 --> 01:09:58.439
I'm in love, feels like I'm.

846
01:09:58.239 --> 01:09:58.640
In lo.

847
01:10:01.199 --> 01:10:02.720
I know it's getting old, but I'm going to keep

848
01:10:02.760 --> 01:10:09.399
doing it. The police don't stand so close to me. Wow, again,

849
01:10:09.479 --> 01:10:16.119
I loved that song. That was number four. It's going

850
01:10:16.199 --> 01:10:17.600
to turn around and see.

851
01:10:19.279 --> 01:10:22.720
All right, carry on, Vinnie, but I can't make a

852
01:10:22.720 --> 01:10:27.039
movement without him stopping what he's doing, So the police.

853
01:10:26.760 --> 01:10:29.560
Don't stand so close to me. Twenty seven for September

854
01:10:30.560 --> 01:10:43.720
nineteen eighty h Barbers streisand Woman in Love. I don't

855
01:10:43.760 --> 01:10:47.880
think I necessarily particularly appreciated that song at the time,

856
01:10:50.239 --> 01:10:53.560
but that was one hell of a song. I'm just

857
01:10:53.640 --> 01:11:00.000
a warm morning in love. Okay, that didn't do justice,

858
01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:03.560
but that is a great song. Number three had Child

859
01:11:03.840 --> 01:11:08.319
in the UK. I'm going to miss out Blondie because

860
01:11:08.800 --> 01:11:11.960
Oh the Tide is high? Was the fifteenth of November

861
01:11:12.039 --> 01:11:16.720
nineteen eighty reached number two? Why is it saying that

862
01:11:16.760 --> 01:11:20.000
when earlier on it said it reached number one? Make

863
01:11:20.079 --> 01:11:28.319
up your mind, baby, it's lying to me. Um hmm.

864
01:11:31.600 --> 01:11:39.439
It's very strange, very strange indeed. But fifteenth November nineteen

865
01:11:39.479 --> 01:11:47.119
eighty so I was ten ten and two months and

866
01:11:47.159 --> 01:11:52.239
a half EBBA, so it would have been dark outside,

867
01:11:52.239 --> 01:11:56.520
wouldn't it at night? Especially like seven o'clock or six

868
01:11:56.680 --> 01:12:02.960
thirty whenever that came on be Radio one. ABBA's super

869
01:12:03.000 --> 01:12:19.119
Trooper got to number three. It's November nineteen eighty, twenty ninth. Okay,

870
01:12:19.800 --> 01:12:26.800
this is weird. So John Lennon just like starting over

871
01:12:27.239 --> 01:12:31.039
twenty for December nineteen eighty got to number one. No,

872
01:12:31.119 --> 01:12:32.960
it's not weird. I just didn't realize that was the

873
01:12:33.000 --> 01:12:37.920
first one that they released. Yeah, so that's the twentieth

874
01:12:37.960 --> 01:12:44.159
of December. That was when John Lennon was unfortunately left us,

875
01:12:44.880 --> 01:12:51.880
so he they released that song and then I didn't

876
01:12:51.880 --> 01:12:57.560
remember that. I remember they I know the song, but

877
01:12:57.680 --> 01:13:07.560
for some reason I thought that they really least Ah,

878
01:13:07.600 --> 01:13:11.199
I'm surprised considering it was like near Christmas. Why they

879
01:13:11.199 --> 01:13:21.439
didn't release the Merry Christmas one or maybe they put

880
01:13:21.439 --> 01:13:33.479
that on the other side. Wow, that's weird in it

881
01:13:37.560 --> 01:13:44.680
h um. Yeah, So John Imagine and Woman were both

882
01:13:45.439 --> 01:13:49.680
it was number four Imagine and Woman was number two.

883
01:13:50.279 --> 01:13:58.720
It was January and February. All right, they've missed out

884
01:13:58.760 --> 01:14:05.359
some weeks here. I think I'll made him. You know

885
01:14:05.399 --> 01:14:07.680
what I've just done. Do you know what I'm saying?

886
01:14:07.840 --> 01:14:10.760
What number it got to? I've made a mistake. That

887
01:14:10.800 --> 01:14:12.680
was how many numbers it was? How many weeks it

888
01:14:12.680 --> 01:14:21.039
was at number one? H whoops? Sorry? So just like

889
01:14:21.199 --> 01:14:25.640
starting Over was number one for one week? Shall I

890
01:14:25.680 --> 01:14:29.359
start over? Shall I start the whole recording again? So

891
01:14:29.399 --> 01:14:34.239
Imagine because I'm thinking, wait a minute, Imagine was number one,

892
01:14:35.199 --> 01:14:38.079
and so was Woman because I heard it a lot.

893
01:14:38.680 --> 01:14:42.319
That was January eighty one, tenth of January nineteen eighty

894
01:14:42.359 --> 01:14:46.439
one for four weeks, and then a Woman seventh of

895
01:14:46.560 --> 01:14:53.000
February nineteen eighty one for two weeks. I love both

896
01:14:53.079 --> 01:15:04.439
those songs, Imagine probably more than Woman. Yeah, I loved Imagine,

897
01:15:06.560 --> 01:15:09.039
but it was I don't know when it was first released.

898
01:15:09.079 --> 01:15:12.640
It was in the seventies, wasn't it When did he

899
01:15:12.760 --> 01:15:22.800
first release Imagine? Imagine song wow nineteen seventy one, And

900
01:15:22.840 --> 01:15:27.039
it was from his album called John Lennon No Yeah,

901
01:15:27.119 --> 01:15:38.079
John Lennon eleventh of October nineteen seventy one, So I

902
01:15:39.600 --> 01:15:42.600
very much would have heard it at some point in

903
01:15:42.640 --> 01:15:47.800
the seventies. I just don't remember. Now. This next song

904
01:15:49.479 --> 01:15:54.359
I remember very well, and it was a Joe Dolcy

905
01:15:54.560 --> 01:15:59.159
music theater called shut Up Your Face. In fact, I

906
01:15:59.199 --> 01:16:04.720
can even right when I was in my early twenties.

907
01:16:04.920 --> 01:16:07.960
This isn't this is not nineteen eighty one, so not

908
01:16:08.000 --> 01:16:12.760
when I was in my early twenties. I'd been ten

909
01:16:13.439 --> 01:16:30.319
back then, yeah, ten. So me and my friend Terry,

910
01:16:31.239 --> 01:16:33.960
this is an alert. Early nineties, we had this job

911
01:16:34.039 --> 01:16:41.119
where we're basically processing things, but labels on things or whatever,

912
01:16:43.039 --> 01:16:49.439
and there was a this is bad that one of

913
01:16:49.479 --> 01:16:53.600
the supervisors used to come around and write down the

914
01:16:53.640 --> 01:16:56.279
weights of everything, like it's stand there for a couple

915
01:16:56.319 --> 01:16:59.000
of minutes while we did a box or a couple

916
01:16:59.039 --> 01:17:04.840
of boxes, filled the color boxes up. And for some reason,

917
01:17:04.960 --> 01:17:08.720
when he talked, he just reminded both of us of

918
01:17:09.119 --> 01:17:15.319
Joe Dalcy when he talked in the music and if

919
01:17:15.319 --> 01:17:18.359
you've never seen the video and never seen the song,

920
01:17:18.680 --> 01:17:23.600
shut up your face, then it might not mean anything

921
01:17:23.640 --> 01:17:25.800
to you. But he was he had that kind of

922
01:17:26.039 --> 01:17:28.920
He spoke a bit like that, and for some reason

923
01:17:28.960 --> 01:17:30.920
me and him found it funny. I was a young man.

924
01:17:31.720 --> 01:17:36.119
I don't I'm not excusing myself, but there you have it.

925
01:17:37.359 --> 01:17:39.960
So what we did, and I don't know why, I

926
01:17:39.960 --> 01:17:45.279
don't know how it started. Either he or I would

927
01:17:45.279 --> 01:17:50.479
start it. So once this man, let's call him Dorian,

928
01:17:51.079 --> 01:17:56.159
Doriastorius or whatever, and he was standing behind us. One

929
01:17:56.199 --> 01:18:02.119
of us would start a conversation, what's the matter you?

930
01:18:03.680 --> 01:18:05.479
That's my first one say. The other one would say,

931
01:18:06.680 --> 01:18:11.920
got no respect? But we're doing in a sentence, so

932
01:18:12.079 --> 01:18:16.600
what's the matter you? And the one say, hm, hmmm,

933
01:18:17.159 --> 01:18:20.399
you've got no respect? Any other one would say what

934
01:18:20.479 --> 01:18:23.319
do you think you do? And then the other one,

935
01:18:23.359 --> 01:18:28.279
like me and Terry, I'd say, why do you look at?

936
01:18:28.560 --> 01:18:32.079
What's the man? Why if you don't why you feel

937
01:18:32.079 --> 01:18:38.800
so bad? Is it? What's the mat you? Wait a second,

938
01:18:38.800 --> 01:18:43.640
I do it right a minute? What's the matter you? Hey?

939
01:18:43.640 --> 01:18:46.119
You got no respect? What do you think you do?

940
01:18:47.560 --> 01:18:50.960
Why you look so sad? It's not so bad? And

941
01:18:50.960 --> 01:18:53.439
then the one say it's a nicer place. I'll shut

942
01:18:53.520 --> 01:18:57.399
up your face? And that would We did it every

943
01:18:57.439 --> 01:19:00.600
single time, and he didn't notice. But we'd do it

944
01:19:00.600 --> 01:19:02.680
in a kind of covert way. It wouldn't just like

945
01:19:03.199 --> 01:19:04.399
what's the man are you?

946
01:19:04.920 --> 01:19:05.119
Hey?

947
01:19:05.479 --> 01:19:09.159
Got to no respect? Oh? What do you think you'd do? Hey?

948
01:19:09.439 --> 01:19:13.880
Why are you look as a bad bad? It's the police?

949
01:19:14.000 --> 01:19:16.359
I shad up be of this? That was the song,

950
01:19:17.239 --> 01:19:21.640
and when there was the boy Hey. Then the years ago.

951
01:19:22.840 --> 01:19:24.920
We probably did that as well, probably did more of

952
01:19:24.960 --> 01:19:27.199
the song, but I can't remember all of it now.

953
01:19:28.359 --> 01:19:31.000
It wasn't quite so fresh. It was fresh back then,

954
01:19:31.079 --> 01:19:34.039
you know, because you think it's nineteen eighty one. It

955
01:19:34.119 --> 01:19:38.520
was only ten years earlier that it was in the

956
01:19:38.640 --> 01:19:40.880
charts at number one for three weeks, so I can't

957
01:19:40.920 --> 01:19:45.119
know it was more fresher now another fifty five years

958
01:19:45.199 --> 01:19:49.840
gone past. But it made us giggle, and that's the

959
01:19:49.880 --> 01:19:57.439
main thing. Really. It's kind of borderline rude as well,

960
01:19:57.479 --> 01:20:02.039
but hey, I'm not responsible for what that version of

961
01:20:02.119 --> 01:20:05.720
me used to be like. I would never do that again,

962
01:20:06.239 --> 01:20:13.439
And I apologize since thearly Roxy Music Jealous Guy. Now,

963
01:20:13.479 --> 01:20:18.840
I didn't understand that. I mean, obviously, I'm gonna say obviously,

964
01:20:19.800 --> 01:20:21.760
I don't want to be rude to Roxy Music, but

965
01:20:22.359 --> 01:20:26.439
they clearly brought out that song off the back of

966
01:20:26.760 --> 01:20:34.079
John Lenon situation because it was literally, okay, the month

967
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:43.640
after John Lennon Woman. Now, I'd never heard Jealous Guy before,

968
01:20:45.840 --> 01:20:48.279
and I didn't know it was a John Lennon song.

969
01:20:54.359 --> 01:20:58.640
Why Roxy Music couldn't just let them release John Lennon

970
01:20:58.920 --> 01:21:01.960
Jealous Guy, I don't know, but I'm kind of glad

971
01:21:01.960 --> 01:21:05.119
he didn't because, and I don't say this very often,

972
01:21:07.079 --> 01:21:12.000
I like cake, No, that wasn't it. Well, I don't.

973
01:21:17.399 --> 01:21:26.159
Roxy Music's version of Jealous Guy was better than John

974
01:21:26.239 --> 01:21:29.359
Lennon's version, and John Lennon's version was great as well,

975
01:21:30.560 --> 01:21:35.000
but Roxy Music took it to a different level my opinion,

976
01:21:35.199 --> 01:21:40.199
obviously it's my opinion, but so good. It's one of

977
01:21:40.239 --> 01:21:45.920
it is one of my favorite songs. Actually, And now

978
01:21:46.039 --> 01:21:51.960
we're moving into a territory that is very much Things

979
01:21:52.079 --> 01:21:57.000
seemed to start to change. This isn't the like nineteen

980
01:21:57.039 --> 01:22:02.159
eighty one period. It's weird. So you got through nineteen eighties.

981
01:22:02.199 --> 01:22:11.159
You've got all the Pink Floyd, the Pretender's Specials, Kenny Rogers, Blondie,

982
01:22:11.680 --> 01:22:16.239
the jam. People from the seventies were still kind of,

983
01:22:16.600 --> 01:22:20.640
you know, breaking through to the eighties, the Electric Light Talk, Eello,

984
01:22:21.359 --> 01:22:28.479
David Bowie, Abba, Barbara Streisson, John Lennon. I know there's

985
01:22:28.479 --> 01:22:30.279
a reason for John Lennon being in the charts, but

986
01:22:31.640 --> 01:22:35.560
you know, there's a lot of stuff from the eighties

987
01:22:36.359 --> 01:22:41.680
like that moved over from the seventies, and then in

988
01:22:41.720 --> 01:22:46.960
the nineteen eighty one, the nineteen eighty one things started

989
01:22:46.960 --> 01:22:52.960
to change a bit. Shaking Stevens, although admittedly being around

990
01:22:53.000 --> 01:23:04.239
for a long time, became huge and Bucks Fizz. They

991
01:23:04.359 --> 01:23:06.760
had Making Your Mind Up, which is at number one

992
01:23:06.760 --> 01:23:10.039
for three weeks. They won the Eurovision Song Contest for

993
01:23:10.199 --> 01:23:15.479
England or UK. I'm not sure if it's Britain or

994
01:23:15.520 --> 01:23:18.920
England or the UK. I lose track. I only lived here.

995
01:23:19.399 --> 01:23:25.880
I don't know who they represented, and that was a

996
01:23:25.960 --> 01:23:28.199
huge hit because there was a point where they pulled

997
01:23:28.199 --> 01:23:34.880
their miniskirts off and I was ten at the time.

998
01:23:35.319 --> 01:23:37.319
I don't know why I'm really focusing on my age,

999
01:23:38.960 --> 01:23:43.479
but I didn't disapprove, That's what I'm saying. Shaking Stevens

1000
01:23:43.840 --> 01:23:48.800
was my favorite singer. I feel a little a bit

1001
01:23:48.840 --> 01:23:50.600
embarrassed because I thought I liked him when I was

1002
01:23:50.640 --> 01:23:54.279
really little. But I was ten ten and a half

1003
01:23:54.319 --> 01:23:58.359
at this point, so I wasn't really little, which doesn't

1004
01:23:58.399 --> 01:24:06.239
make sense to me, because I specifically remember walking around

1005
01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:12.239
the field reading the lyrics to Stand and Deliver. But

1006
01:24:12.319 --> 01:24:19.640
it was ninth of May nineteen eighty one. No, that's fine, actually,

1007
01:24:20.560 --> 01:24:23.840
because I didn't Yeah, that would have made sense nineteen

1008
01:24:23.880 --> 01:24:27.840
eighty one. I started high school in September nineteen eighty one,

1009
01:24:28.279 --> 01:24:30.399
so I've got through it. I've got the memories correct.

1010
01:24:31.920 --> 01:24:36.239
Because I used to have the I used to have

1011
01:24:36.239 --> 01:24:39.760
a magazine called Looking Magazine. I get it every week,

1012
01:24:40.560 --> 01:24:43.039
me and my brothers Will had. We had two comics

1013
01:24:43.079 --> 01:24:50.439
each each week. I had Looking and The Dandy. So

1014
01:24:50.640 --> 01:24:55.560
Looking was kind of it was more like a TV magazine. Really,

1015
01:24:55.880 --> 01:24:58.680
it was very much to do with TV and the

1016
01:24:58.800 --> 01:25:02.199
charts music. That's what it was really about. It was

1017
01:25:02.279 --> 01:25:09.920
kind of, yeah, TV movies, charts, Yeah, it's brilliant. I

1018
01:25:09.920 --> 01:25:12.399
don't know if it's still around, to be honest, but

1019
01:25:13.119 --> 01:25:17.680
it was really good. And The Dandy was for fun.

1020
01:25:19.039 --> 01:25:22.239
I think Looking was for knowledge. It was for keeping

1021
01:25:22.319 --> 01:25:27.560
up to date and knowing when the next new songs

1022
01:25:27.600 --> 01:25:31.960
coming out, when the next movie, next TV show, you know,

1023
01:25:32.039 --> 01:25:34.279
like when the A Team's coming back up on TV

1024
01:25:34.359 --> 01:25:38.039
again and things like that. And they'd be posters that

1025
01:25:38.119 --> 01:25:44.840
we could get and I think I started reading. I

1026
01:25:44.880 --> 01:25:47.399
was going to say ordering, but someone else got it

1027
01:25:47.439 --> 01:25:54.399
for me. But it was I'm pretty sure we were

1028
01:25:54.439 --> 01:26:00.000
living in the road where the house at my Nanogrande

1029
01:26:00.119 --> 01:26:10.880
moved into, so that'd be nineteen seventy eight and seventeen nine,

1030
01:26:10.960 --> 01:26:15.359
seventy eight sort of time. So I started getting that

1031
01:26:15.479 --> 01:26:18.920
then because I remember we were sitting in front of

1032
01:26:19.000 --> 01:26:21.720
the garden, which is a little bit weird because we

1033
01:26:21.800 --> 01:26:24.119
normally wouldn't do that, but it must have been very hot,

1034
01:26:24.880 --> 01:26:29.880
so we were sitting. Because how it worked is he

1035
01:26:30.000 --> 01:26:32.439
had the house. Do you know the front of a house,

1036
01:26:33.319 --> 01:26:35.680
and it's the front door. So I'm going to get

1037
01:26:35.680 --> 01:26:39.039
I'll give you a description of the house where I lived.

1038
01:26:39.520 --> 01:26:43.359
It was my favorite house ever. And then my nanny

1039
01:26:43.359 --> 01:26:46.079
grand had lived there as well. For woman then lived

1040
01:26:46.079 --> 01:26:56.279
there from nineteen seventy nine to probably about two thousand

1041
01:26:56.279 --> 01:27:10.000
and ten, maybe maybe two thousand and nine, seventy nine,

1042
01:27:10.079 --> 01:27:12.680
eighty nine, ninety nine two, so she was there thirty

1043
01:27:12.760 --> 01:27:20.239
years at least. And I loved that house, but it

1044
01:27:20.359 --> 01:27:23.600
just wasn't big enough for a new sprogue. So when

1045
01:27:23.680 --> 01:27:31.520
my little brother was born, we you know, it was

1046
01:27:31.600 --> 01:27:33.600
okay for a short while because he could stay in

1047
01:27:33.640 --> 01:27:37.760
their bedroom, in the parents' bedroom while he was a baby.

1048
01:27:37.840 --> 01:27:42.680
But you know, babies grow, and there was solutions, you know, like, well,

1049
01:27:42.720 --> 01:27:44.960
we need to get find a solution for this situation,

1050
01:27:45.199 --> 01:27:51.720
and apparently my solution of just getting rid of him

1051
01:27:51.800 --> 01:27:56.680
wasn't a popular one that was voted down, so you know,

1052
01:27:56.720 --> 01:28:00.880
they kept the baby and move to a bigger house.

1053
01:28:02.319 --> 01:28:05.079
I wanted to stay there. I had my own bedroom.

1054
01:28:05.479 --> 01:28:09.119
I liked that house. It's the only house I've ever

1055
01:28:09.319 --> 01:28:15.439
liked ever. I loved. I loved that house, and it

1056
01:28:15.560 --> 01:28:20.479
was the first nice place I've ever lived. And I

1057
01:28:20.520 --> 01:28:23.640
think because the memories of being there for the first

1058
01:28:23.760 --> 01:28:27.439
year and also my little brother being born out it

1059
01:28:27.520 --> 01:28:30.039
was a beautiful time as well, and he was running around.

1060
01:28:30.479 --> 01:28:32.239
It's like having a little puppy, isn't it. Really, When

1061
01:28:32.279 --> 01:28:38.439
you get a baby, it's very entertaining and then a

1062
01:28:38.479 --> 01:28:46.680
novelty wears off. I shouldn't say stuff like that, but

1063
01:28:46.720 --> 01:28:56.840
it is true. So as a kid it was true, okay, right,

1064
01:28:58.239 --> 01:29:02.319
And then when my Nana and Granda living there, it

1065
01:29:02.439 --> 01:29:07.239
kind of you know, from ninety one onwards, my name

1066
01:29:07.279 --> 01:29:12.600
was living there on our own, so I was visiting

1067
01:29:12.640 --> 01:29:16.079
and just that house was in my life for forty

1068
01:29:16.159 --> 01:29:21.680
years or thirty thirty odd years. It is the only

1069
01:29:22.960 --> 01:29:26.319
the only place really, I mean, my dad's house now

1070
01:29:26.399 --> 01:29:29.600
has been in He's lived at the same place for

1071
01:29:30.439 --> 01:29:34.960
since what probably early nineties, so that's a long time.

1072
01:29:35.039 --> 01:29:42.159
Isn't it. Yeah, so he's that's what's it ninety two thousand,

1073
01:29:42.359 --> 01:29:47.680
two thousand and ten, twenty thirty five years or whatever.

1074
01:29:47.720 --> 01:29:53.159
He's lived there, BlimE me, thirty four thirty three, thirty four.

1075
01:29:55.479 --> 01:29:57.239
So I'm kind of used to him. But I don't

1076
01:29:57.239 --> 01:29:59.920
go there very often, but I'm used to that kind

1077
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:02.720
I used to live in here. Now, although I could

1078
01:30:02.760 --> 01:30:06.039
really perhaps do something a little bit better with the police,

1079
01:30:08.279 --> 01:30:12.960
I don't quite know what I mean, how do you

1080
01:30:13.079 --> 01:30:20.399
improve perfection? I don't know. But anyway, so you're looking

1081
01:30:20.439 --> 01:30:25.159
at the front of the house, there's a window downstairs,

1082
01:30:25.720 --> 01:30:28.439
a window upstairs, So the window downstairs on the right,

1083
01:30:30.000 --> 01:30:33.039
and there's a bit of grass on the right, and

1084
01:30:33.079 --> 01:30:37.479
then there's another house connected, so it was a semi

1085
01:30:37.560 --> 01:30:45.560
detached house. The other house connected was basically just the opposite,

1086
01:30:46.079 --> 01:30:49.439
although they did knock through so Whenmber going there, they

1087
01:30:49.520 --> 01:31:00.720
knocked through the living room into the Yeah, they knocked

1088
01:31:00.720 --> 01:31:05.319
through the living room into the kitchen. And I think

1089
01:31:05.319 --> 01:31:08.119
they had an extension as well, so it's a much

1090
01:31:08.159 --> 01:31:12.279
bigger space inside their house. But then they had less

1091
01:31:12.359 --> 01:31:16.640
guard because the back garden wasn't big really, it was

1092
01:31:16.680 --> 01:31:18.920
a nice size, I mean I'd be very happy with

1093
01:31:18.960 --> 01:31:24.840
a size, a small or small one. I mean small

1094
01:31:24.840 --> 01:31:26.600
ones better than no one at all, isn't it that?

1095
01:31:27.039 --> 01:31:32.479
You know what I mean? So, but looking at the front,

1096
01:31:33.680 --> 01:31:36.560
the window downstairs was for the living room, for the

1097
01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:40.159
living room. The windows upstairs, the one above that was

1098
01:31:40.199 --> 01:31:43.039
for the what was my name's bedroom, but it was

1099
01:31:43.159 --> 01:31:50.000
originally my dad's in his wife's bedroom. And then you

1100
01:31:50.079 --> 01:31:54.800
got the front doors had left upstairs from that, the

1101
01:31:54.920 --> 01:32:02.600
first window up there was my bed room window mine, mine,

1102
01:32:03.159 --> 01:32:09.800
my first ever bedroom, my first ever bedroom, I mean, wow,

1103
01:32:11.680 --> 01:32:17.920
I had it's my first as a child, I had

1104
01:32:18.119 --> 01:32:21.960
three bedrooms of my own. I was very lucky, actually

1105
01:32:23.239 --> 01:32:28.000
that I mean in a way, although I didn't eh,

1106
01:32:28.760 --> 01:32:31.680
you know, it was I preferred the small house. But

1107
01:32:31.960 --> 01:32:34.880
both my older brothers were sharing a room. Wasn't really

1108
01:32:34.920 --> 01:32:39.920
fair on them. But I did realize at the time,

1109
01:32:39.960 --> 01:32:43.039
although it wasn't fair on them, my happiness was way

1110
01:32:43.079 --> 01:32:47.800
more important. I realized that when I was seven, I

1111
01:32:47.880 --> 01:32:52.840
came to that conclusion. And when I was eight, I thought, yeah,

1112
01:32:52.840 --> 01:32:57.439
there's too many of us. Now, one of the older

1113
01:32:57.439 --> 01:33:00.960
ones needs to move out. Maybe if that both of

1114
01:33:01.000 --> 01:33:02.880
the older ones move out, then the baby can go

1115
01:33:02.920 --> 01:33:05.720
into the other room. Well, I can move into that

1116
01:33:05.800 --> 01:33:07.520
room because it's bigger, and he can move into the

1117
01:33:07.520 --> 01:33:13.600
small room. And we just don't mention the other brothers again.

1118
01:33:15.319 --> 01:33:17.239
But you know, I was eight years old. Logic wasn't

1119
01:33:17.800 --> 01:33:23.760
at the top. I just I don't think I was

1120
01:33:23.800 --> 01:33:26.880
built for a big family. I know some people say, well,

1121
01:33:26.920 --> 01:33:29.520
it's only four kids, it's not a big family, but

1122
01:33:29.560 --> 01:33:37.079
it's it was noisy, very very very noisy, very chaotic

1123
01:33:37.119 --> 01:33:47.279
at times, and I don't know, I kind of I

1124
01:33:47.319 --> 01:33:53.319
didn't always enjoy it, if I'm honest, I was very

1125
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:57.399
different from them, and we were all very different. Really.

1126
01:33:58.279 --> 01:34:03.920
I just I was really into crowds, and four kids

1127
01:34:04.079 --> 01:34:11.560
two adults is a crowd. That's a crowded space. I

1128
01:34:11.760 --> 01:34:16.279
liked my space. I remember my dad shouting up at

1129
01:34:16.279 --> 01:34:21.199
the window once and where are you Jason? I said,

1130
01:34:22.920 --> 01:34:28.760
I'm in my I'm here in the bedroom. I said,

1131
01:34:28.760 --> 01:34:30.960
why are you asking me where I am? It said,

1132
01:34:30.960 --> 01:34:33.840
what do you mean? I said, you're literally standing below

1133
01:34:33.880 --> 01:34:36.159
my window, shouting up at my window asking me where

1134
01:34:36.159 --> 01:34:40.720
I am. If you didn't know where I was, then

1135
01:34:40.720 --> 01:34:43.439
why would you be looking at the window. You literally

1136
01:34:43.520 --> 01:34:46.159
know I'm here don't you? He said, I can see

1137
01:34:46.199 --> 01:34:48.920
you now. I said no, I mean before I was

1138
01:34:48.960 --> 01:34:51.359
standing at the window, you were shouting up at the window.

1139
01:34:52.279 --> 01:34:53.760
And he said, how do you know I'm stand at

1140
01:34:53.760 --> 01:34:56.279
the window shouting up if you weren't at the window

1141
01:34:56.319 --> 01:34:59.680
looking down, how do you know where I was? I said,

1142
01:34:59.680 --> 01:35:02.199
because when I got to the window, you were standing there.

1143
01:35:03.680 --> 01:35:05.319
I said, maybe when I got to the window, you

1144
01:35:05.439 --> 01:35:09.000
were standing there. And he said that one of us

1145
01:35:09.000 --> 01:35:14.720
said it, and he said, should we just stop this now?

1146
01:35:16.159 --> 01:35:20.279
I said, what do you mean? He said, well, I

1147
01:35:20.319 --> 01:35:22.319
don't know. I'd just rather go back to talking about

1148
01:35:22.359 --> 01:35:26.600
the music. I mean, how did you even get on

1149
01:35:26.680 --> 01:35:30.840
to talking about rooms and you know, wishing you'd had

1150
01:35:30.840 --> 01:35:34.960
a smaller family. How do you get from Blondie and

1151
01:35:35.000 --> 01:35:39.199
Shake and Stevens and Bucks Fizz and to that? I mean,

1152
01:35:39.520 --> 01:35:43.560
you were talking about walking around the field reading the

1153
01:35:43.680 --> 01:35:47.920
lyrics from Looking magazine, and you were confused whether or

1154
01:35:48.000 --> 01:35:51.359
not that memory was correct because you remember doing that

1155
01:35:51.439 --> 01:35:55.880
around your like the little school you went to, and

1156
01:35:55.920 --> 01:35:59.159
you had to correct and realize that everyone that is true,

1157
01:35:59.159 --> 01:36:01.720
but it was true because you weren't at high school yet.

1158
01:36:02.880 --> 01:36:09.199
I said, okay, I said, what what what what what

1159
01:36:09.239 --> 01:36:12.520
are you getting at? He said, how I thought we'd

1160
01:36:12.520 --> 01:36:16.119
just maybe get back to the music. I said, all

1161
01:36:16.159 --> 01:36:20.000
about the description of the house, he said, do you

1162
01:36:20.039 --> 01:36:22.720
think anyone really wants to know the description of a

1163
01:36:22.840 --> 01:36:29.319
house that you lived in when you were eight years old?

1164
01:36:29.359 --> 01:36:35.199
I don't know. Some people might said how many how

1165
01:36:35.199 --> 01:36:38.039
many rooms was there? Or bedrooms?

1166
01:36:38.079 --> 01:36:38.399
You mean?

1167
01:36:39.319 --> 01:36:49.560
He said, yeah, three? And downstairs? What was their living room? Kitchen? Yeah, kitchen,

1168
01:36:51.079 --> 01:36:54.920
anything else? Or well, there was a bathroom upstairs, and

1169
01:36:54.920 --> 01:36:58.399
there's a toilet downstairs. But the bathroom also had a toilet,

1170
01:36:59.600 --> 01:37:04.000
but the it was very small. Not the toilet itself.

1171
01:37:04.399 --> 01:37:09.159
The toilet was normal size, but the room that the

1172
01:37:09.199 --> 01:37:15.840
toilet was in was quite small. In fact, it was

1173
01:37:17.399 --> 01:37:19.159
a little bit of struggle to get in there when

1174
01:37:19.159 --> 01:37:22.560
I was sort of a bit bigger, got stuck once.

1175
01:37:24.520 --> 01:37:28.920
But I don't want to talk about it. Very hard

1176
01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:34.119
to maneuver, because there's certain maneuvers during a toilet session

1177
01:37:34.760 --> 01:37:40.039
that needs a degree of movement and flexibility, and if

1178
01:37:40.039 --> 01:37:44.960
you're squashed against two walls, it's hard, you know, without

1179
01:37:45.000 --> 01:37:49.159
sort of going into details, he can't tell me more.

1180
01:37:49.199 --> 01:37:53.319
Tell me more? Did you get very far? Tell me more?

1181
01:37:53.359 --> 01:37:55.960
Tell me more like did he have a car?

1182
01:37:58.279 --> 01:37:58.399
Right?

1183
01:37:58.479 --> 01:38:03.840
Okay? Back to the songs Adam in the ants Standard Deliver.

1184
01:38:04.479 --> 01:38:14.399
So I remember seeing on morning TV, probably Saturday morning,

1185
01:38:15.399 --> 01:38:19.600
there was a I could not a documentary, but there

1186
01:38:19.640 --> 01:38:22.079
was like a short thing where they were talking about

1187
01:38:22.119 --> 01:38:27.920
the behind the scenes of making that video Standard Deliver.

1188
01:38:29.359 --> 01:38:30.720
I don't know if you remember the lyrics for that.

1189
01:38:30.800 --> 01:38:35.319
It was stand and deliver your money or your life,

1190
01:38:36.239 --> 01:38:39.840
try and use a mirror, not a bullet or a knife.

1191
01:38:40.600 --> 01:38:51.720
And even though you, even though you choose to blow,

1192
01:38:51.920 --> 01:38:56.840
your conscience will be mine or mine even though you

1193
01:38:57.239 --> 01:39:01.760
choose the I wonder what the word was I missed

1194
01:39:01.760 --> 01:39:08.000
out actually to start with it be oh oh ho

1195
01:39:08.840 --> 01:39:13.479
oh ha oh ho. Do do do do do? Do? Do?

1196
01:39:13.359 --> 01:39:13.399
Do?

1197
01:39:14.199 --> 01:39:17.479
I an acid? Don't you ever? Don't? Okay? A different song?

1198
01:39:19.600 --> 01:39:26.039
I remember this one, Smoky Robinson Being with you? Is

1199
01:39:26.079 --> 01:39:26.560
that the one?

1200
01:39:27.239 --> 01:39:31.319
And okay, what to see a batter me? And and okay,

1201
01:39:31.359 --> 01:39:36.239
what did do? And okay about anything else but being

1202
01:39:36.359 --> 01:39:38.079
with you? Being with you?

1203
01:39:39.159 --> 01:39:44.520
People to say they alvis do do do do you?

1204
01:39:46.039 --> 01:39:49.560
I remember the he was walking on the beach, Smoky

1205
01:39:49.680 --> 01:39:55.279
Robinson with his really soft voice, walking on the beach,

1206
01:39:55.640 --> 01:39:58.520
maybe barefooted. I don't know. I wasn't looking at his feet.

1207
01:39:58.920 --> 01:40:00.760
I wasn't looking any part of the body of saying that.

1208
01:40:00.800 --> 01:40:03.520
I wasn't particularly focused on his feet. But I do

1209
01:40:03.640 --> 01:40:10.399
remember it was a beach and it was at number

1210
01:40:10.399 --> 01:40:15.199
one for two weeks, and I like that song. Now,

1211
01:40:15.279 --> 01:40:21.079
I don't remember Michael Jackson being number one with One

1212
01:40:21.119 --> 01:40:26.319
Day in Your Life, because, from the looks of it,

1213
01:40:26.399 --> 01:40:29.960
Michael Jackson did not have a number one during nineteen

1214
01:40:30.000 --> 01:40:34.359
eighty the nineteen eighty one, twenty seventh for June, he

1215
01:40:34.520 --> 01:40:40.960
had One Day in Your Life. So I'm surprised at that.

1216
01:40:41.319 --> 01:40:47.680
Why was that? Just the reason surprise is because he

1217
01:40:47.920 --> 01:40:56.800
had Off the Wall, which was either I think it

1218
01:40:56.840 --> 01:40:59.960
was seventy nine, and One Day in your Life was

1219
01:41:00.079 --> 01:41:07.560
not on Off the Wall. So where did One Day

1220
01:41:07.560 --> 01:41:13.000
in Your Life? It was released in ninety from the

1221
01:41:13.039 --> 01:41:17.279
album One Day in Your Life nineteen eighty one, really,

1222
01:41:24.720 --> 01:41:27.119
so I'm confused. So I'm looking at One Day in

1223
01:41:27.119 --> 01:41:29.760
Your Life as a song recorded by American singer Mark

1224
01:41:29.920 --> 01:41:35.079
Jackson for his nineteen seventy five album Forever Michael, which

1225
01:41:35.359 --> 01:41:39.600
I like. That's that album. It's a great album. Lyrics

1226
01:41:39.600 --> 01:41:43.039
by Rene Armond was issued as a single in the

1227
01:41:43.159 --> 01:41:50.159
UK nineteen seventy five, and later released March twentieth, nineteen

1228
01:41:50.159 --> 01:41:54.520
eighty one as a single from the compilation album One

1229
01:41:54.600 --> 01:41:59.399
Day in Your Life. Due to the commercial interest that

1230
01:41:59.520 --> 01:42:04.720
generated from the sales of Jackson's hit nineteen seventy nine

1231
01:42:04.920 --> 01:42:13.439
album Off the Wall, Okay. While a modest ushit, it

1232
01:42:13.560 --> 01:42:19.600
was bigger hit in the UK. It became the sixth

1233
01:42:19.640 --> 01:42:24.399
best seller single of nineteen eighty one. That's kind of weird,

1234
01:42:24.680 --> 01:42:27.640
not not weird, just if I think of nineteen eighty one,

1235
01:42:29.359 --> 01:42:33.399
I thought that he released thriller, but maybe it was

1236
01:42:33.520 --> 01:42:44.479
later on than it. Shaking Stevens Julie Woo, Julie, I

1237
01:42:44.560 --> 01:42:48.880
love Shaking Stephens. I used to dance like Shaking Stephens,

1238
01:42:49.039 --> 01:42:51.079
or as I used to like it to say that

1239
01:42:51.399 --> 01:42:54.439
other if like I said words at the time, I

1240
01:42:54.520 --> 01:42:57.960
used to like to tell people Shaking Stephens likes to

1241
01:42:58.159 --> 01:43:04.520
dance like me. Craftwork the model. Now I don't remember

1242
01:43:04.560 --> 01:43:09.960
this at the time. Great song, she use the model

1243
01:43:10.039 --> 01:43:14.319
and she's looking good. Do do Do Do Do Do Do?

1244
01:43:17.399 --> 01:43:22.399
I love that song. They're the type of songs that

1245
01:43:23.000 --> 01:43:26.359
I just don't hear anywhere. I don't you know. I

1246
01:43:26.439 --> 01:43:28.920
kind of forget about them, and then when I hear them,

1247
01:43:28.920 --> 01:43:36.479
I think, Wow, I love that song. The jam town

1248
01:43:36.600 --> 01:43:41.319
called Alice Malice rather sorry, and I like that as well.

1249
01:43:41.359 --> 01:43:47.119
It was good old type fit. Does anyone remember this

1250
01:43:47.159 --> 01:43:55.239
one in the jungle? The jungle line? Steves denied the

1251
01:43:55.399 --> 01:44:00.159
Jungle that was a good song like that number three

1252
01:44:00.159 --> 01:44:05.279
weeks so it was number one. I'm just going to

1253
01:44:05.359 --> 01:44:08.880
go down Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder Ebony and Ivory

1254
01:44:09.560 --> 01:44:17.880
twenty fourth of April nineteen eighty two. Wow. Now I

1255
01:44:17.920 --> 01:44:24.159
would have been eleven years old, so I was in

1256
01:44:24.199 --> 01:44:35.840
the first year of high school, Bernie and for me,

1257
01:44:37.560 --> 01:44:39.560
so yeah, I was number one for three weeks. So

1258
01:44:39.680 --> 01:44:46.319
I loved that song. I used to sing the lyrics.

1259
01:44:47.199 --> 01:44:50.880
It's something I used to do in high school. Not

1260
01:44:51.000 --> 01:44:56.600
all the time, but sometimes I needed to be on

1261
01:44:56.640 --> 01:45:02.159
my own and i'd walk around the field, the playfield,

1262
01:45:02.960 --> 01:45:06.239
and I would sing to myself and i'd sing the

1263
01:45:06.399 --> 01:45:12.079
songs like Ebony and Ivory, or i'd sing madness songs

1264
01:45:12.239 --> 01:45:16.039
or you know, different songs. But that was one of

1265
01:45:16.119 --> 01:45:22.479
my favorite songs at the time. Nicole A little piece.

1266
01:45:22.560 --> 01:45:26.199
I don't know that one Madness House of Fun. I

1267
01:45:26.359 --> 01:45:29.119
got to number one for two weeks. Goody two Shoes,

1268
01:45:29.199 --> 01:45:32.399
Adam and No Adam Ant Not Adam and the Ants,

1269
01:45:35.720 --> 01:45:40.800
Captain Sensible, happy talk, happy talking talking, happy talk, talk

1270
01:45:40.840 --> 01:45:41.760
about things you.

1271
01:45:41.760 --> 01:45:42.359
Like to do.

1272
01:45:43.520 --> 01:45:49.800
Love that song. I've never been to me, Charlene, that's

1273
01:45:49.840 --> 01:45:52.479
a great song as well. Wow, I forgot about that one.

1274
01:45:53.279 --> 01:45:57.319
And then of course Fame I Want to Live Forever

1275
01:45:58.800 --> 01:46:03.079
and that was July Night in to Dex's Midnight Runners,

1276
01:46:03.640 --> 01:46:11.159
Come On, Eileen and number four. That was number one

1277
01:46:11.159 --> 01:46:15.880
for four weeks August eighty two. And yeah, I remember

1278
01:46:15.920 --> 01:46:18.800
that that was a really popular song during my disco

1279
01:46:18.960 --> 01:46:24.239
years when I was a DJ. And Survivor was because

1280
01:46:24.239 --> 01:46:26.199
you just played this the beginning that there's the first

1281
01:46:26.279 --> 01:46:29.479
few chords of the song do Do Do Do Do

1282
01:46:29.479 --> 01:46:32.640
Do Do and with no I just like do do

1283

Do Do Do do? Okay, it sounded it sounded kind

1286
01:46:45.359 --> 01:46:47.720
of right to me when I first started singing it.

1287
01:46:49.039 --> 01:46:52.479
I have the Tiger by Survivor. Great song, but that

1288
01:46:52.600 --> 01:46:55.880
was like Rookie, wasn't it. I have the tag. Yeah,

1289
01:46:57.800 --> 01:47:00.239
that was number one for four weeks, so I'm yes

1290
01:47:00.359 --> 01:47:06.000
in that was because of the Rocky movie. Oh this

1291
01:47:06.039 --> 01:47:09.319
is another song that I don't hear very often past

1292
01:47:09.439 --> 01:47:16.119
the Ducci for Musical Youth nineteen eighty two October, and

1293
01:47:16.159 --> 01:47:18.079
I still to this day do not know what they're

1294
01:47:18.279 --> 01:47:23.960
talking about or what they were saying, like it's like

1295
01:47:24.319 --> 01:47:29.960
Eastern nariation, their Voriian whatever, it's like what, But I

1296
01:47:30.000 --> 01:47:39.039
love them. I actually yeah, wow. I bought their album,

1297
01:47:39.560 --> 01:47:44.560
one of the first ever albums I bought. I bought

1298
01:47:44.560 --> 01:47:49.439
that album, Musical Youth. I did, I did, I did,

1299
01:47:50.600 --> 01:47:52.159
and I listened to all of it. I liked all

1300
01:47:52.159 --> 01:47:59.039
the songs. Culture Club do You Really Want to Hurt Me?

1301
01:48:00.039 --> 01:48:01.880
Culture Club was a weird one because I loved all

1302
01:48:01.880 --> 01:48:05.960
that stuff as well. Nineteen eighty two, twenty third of October.

1303
01:48:08.039 --> 01:48:09.640
I don't know if it's the first song, but it's

1304
01:48:09.640 --> 01:48:11.560
the first song to get to number one according to

1305
01:48:11.600 --> 01:48:16.880
this Now. I remember we was on holiday in All

1306
01:48:17.079 --> 01:48:23.319
Whales and we were watching the TV black and white TV.

1307
01:48:23.479 --> 01:48:26.640
We had this little portable thing running off a generator

1308
01:48:28.439 --> 01:48:31.359
and we're all sitting around. Maybe there's a campfire, I

1309
01:48:31.359 --> 01:48:38.279
don't know. If that is probably during the day. It

1310
01:48:38.319 --> 01:48:39.800
was summer, so it might have been in the evening.

1311
01:48:40.199 --> 01:48:42.800
It's not really relevant, is it to the story? We

1312
01:48:42.920 --> 01:48:45.520
need to know precisely what time it was and what

1313
01:48:45.640 --> 01:48:52.319
is everyone wearing and who had the most regular bowel

1314
01:48:52.359 --> 01:48:55.439
movement at that time. No, we don't need all that information.

1315
01:48:57.199 --> 01:49:05.560
I there were a conversation right about boy George, because

1316
01:49:05.680 --> 01:49:08.760
boy George was so pretty if you could look back,

1317
01:49:08.920 --> 01:49:18.399
he was a very attractive person, beautiful eyes.

1318
01:49:18.640 --> 01:49:18.800
You know.

1319
01:49:18.960 --> 01:49:22.520
I'm just saying it's just I would say factual. He's

1320
01:49:22.680 --> 01:49:29.800
very I loved him. Anyway, we were having this argument

1321
01:49:31.199 --> 01:49:35.600
between us, so the five of us, it is what

1322
01:49:35.720 --> 01:49:42.600
is it? Me my oldest brother, my other brother that

1323
01:49:42.720 --> 01:49:50.039
was also older than me, the father, the mother, and

1324
01:49:50.079 --> 01:49:53.640
we're all saying arguing between us, like is it a

1325
01:49:53.680 --> 01:49:55.640
boy or was it a girl? Is it a man

1326
01:49:55.720 --> 01:50:00.159
or is it a woman? You know, a part my

1327
01:50:00.159 --> 01:50:04.920
little brother who was he was just like I want

1328
01:50:04.920 --> 01:50:07.359
to do a pooh, I need a pooh because it

1329
01:50:07.439 --> 01:50:10.680
was only four years old, wasn't he He wasn't too

1330
01:50:10.720 --> 01:50:19.640
interested in culture club. I'm pretty sure one of us,

1331
01:50:20.800 --> 01:50:24.359
maybe me, I don't know, maybe someone else said maybe

1332
01:50:24.359 --> 01:50:29.800
it's in the name boy George, but it looks nagy girl.

1333
01:50:30.000 --> 01:50:34.560
She looks naked girl. It was confusing because back then

1334
01:50:36.960 --> 01:50:44.079
and his name is boy George. It was kind of

1335
01:50:44.960 --> 01:50:49.680
it was kind of it's weird. But oh he was

1336
01:50:49.800 --> 01:50:57.119
so gorgeous. Oh he's still doing good. I've seen him, well,

1337
01:50:57.199 --> 01:51:02.199
not recent but like in recent years on these music

1338
01:51:02.239 --> 01:51:07.920
shows that he he does where he's a judge and

1339
01:51:08.000 --> 01:51:13.439
he just it seems to be ageless. I'd say another one.

1340
01:51:14.840 --> 01:51:22.239
It was beautiful and as adamant. I don't honestly, he

1341
01:51:22.439 --> 01:51:25.359
just he will all let make up, but he didn't

1342
01:51:25.359 --> 01:51:28.000
need because that was part of his act, wasn't it.

1343
01:51:28.479 --> 01:51:37.760
But he was super handsome, actually pretty, he was pretty anyway.

1344
01:51:37.800 --> 01:51:40.880
I don't know why I'm talking about that beas Yeah,

1345
01:51:41.239 --> 01:51:42.960
because they were kind of the same kind of period

1346
01:51:42.960 --> 01:51:49.159
when they I suppose Eddie Grant, Oh don't one a dance?

1347
01:51:49.960 --> 01:51:53.279
Wasn't that? Also on a Beach that was at number

1348
01:51:53.319 --> 01:51:58.520
one for three weeks? The jam beat Surrender Don't remember

1349
01:51:58.520 --> 01:52:05.600
that one? Renee and Srinato eighteenth December eighty two, four weeks.

1350
01:52:07.399 --> 01:52:10.039
I remember this one. I'm not going to sing it,

1351
01:52:10.119 --> 01:52:14.319
but it was like if your Love my Darling, see

1352
01:52:14.479 --> 01:52:23.239
your Love and it was great. So that was eighty two.

1353
01:52:23.479 --> 01:52:25.159
I could go on, I'm going to do eighty three

1354
01:52:25.199 --> 01:52:30.239
because eighty three was a big year. This is probably

1355
01:52:30.239 --> 01:52:34.680
when I got into my favorite songs. And it's not

1356
01:52:34.800 --> 01:52:38.039
just because Michael Jackson was in the charts, but some

1357
01:52:38.119 --> 01:52:43.159
of my top songs. I would say, oh, maybe not,

1358
01:52:43.800 --> 01:52:46.319
but not all of my songs. I like, got to

1359
01:52:46.399 --> 01:52:49.680
number one, but you've got Phil Collins. You can't hurry

1360
01:52:49.720 --> 01:52:55.560
love Mente Work down Under and well it's okay. Two

1361
01:52:55.600 --> 01:52:59.560
of my favorite songs that I remember of that year

1362
01:53:00.520 --> 01:53:02.359
because that's when I went in to hospital. I had

1363
01:53:02.439 --> 01:53:07.960
my appendix out Men at Work down Under and Bonnie

1364
01:53:08.039 --> 01:53:12.279
Tyler totally Clips at the Heart. Both those songs were

1365
01:53:12.359 --> 01:53:17.079
my favorite songs at the time, so I had my

1366
01:53:17.119 --> 01:53:23.000
appendix out. Probably I don't know, Summer eighty three, my

1367
01:53:23.119 --> 01:53:30.920
moon maybe like June May, June May. Maybe, I don't know.

1368
01:53:31.239 --> 01:53:34.800
I was still at school. God, that would have Actually,

1369
01:53:35.279 --> 01:53:37.760
I would have been distraught if I'd had to have

1370
01:53:39.399 --> 01:53:43.760
that time in hospital and then that time recovering and

1371
01:53:43.880 --> 01:53:47.079
didn't get to lose any school time. That would have

1372
01:53:47.119 --> 01:53:50.439
been Oh Luckily I did. I managed to lose some

1373
01:53:50.479 --> 01:53:58.479
time at school, so that's good. And cack a goo goo,

1374
01:53:58.880 --> 01:54:02.680
catch a goo goo too, shy Michael Jackson, Billy Jean

1375
01:54:02.760 --> 01:54:07.840
got to number one, Duranne DuRane. Is this something I

1376
01:54:07.840 --> 01:54:08.279
should know?

1377
01:54:10.359 --> 01:54:10.520
Oh?

1378
01:54:10.720 --> 01:54:16.079
But this was? Is there something I should know? Is

1379
01:54:16.119 --> 01:54:19.520
it something I should know? Is there something? Oh I

1380
01:54:19.560 --> 01:54:24.479
should know? See? I never give up. David Bowry, Let's dance,

1381
01:54:25.159 --> 01:54:38.159
Let's dance, Span their bully true. So I would say

1382
01:54:38.840 --> 01:54:44.560
Every Breath you Take, New edition Candy Girl. I like

1383
01:54:44.680 --> 01:54:49.680
that song. Every Breath You Take was good Rodster Paul Young,

1384
01:54:50.680 --> 01:54:56.479
wherever I lay my hat that this is weird because

1385
01:54:56.479 --> 01:55:01.279
something's missing and I'm going to skip head so Culture

1386
01:55:01.279 --> 01:55:07.119
Club cam a comedian Red red Wine ub forty. I

1387
01:55:07.159 --> 01:55:12.279
remember listening to Red red Wine and that was one

1388
01:55:12.279 --> 01:55:16.680
of my favorite songs of that year as well, But

1389
01:55:16.720 --> 01:55:19.359
I don't remember that little rapping bit at the end.

1390
01:55:19.840 --> 01:55:26.560
You's here, that's the ice cream van. It's been like

1391
01:55:26.560 --> 01:55:36.359
a hurricane out there, half a hurricane today. That was

1392
01:55:36.479 --> 01:55:41.239
very loud. Yeah, it's a very loud ice cream van.

1393
01:55:42.079 --> 01:55:49.239
It's almost like it was inside the building. Yeah, Paul

1394
01:55:49.319 --> 01:55:54.319
Young loved Poor Young ub forty. Red Red Wine I

1395
01:55:54.479 --> 01:55:59.159
was in the rolling roller skating rink that we had,

1396
01:56:00.079 --> 01:56:01.920
and it was a size It wasn't it like a

1397
01:56:02.000 --> 01:56:04.279
size or a small garden. It wasn't like a big thing.

1398
01:56:04.800 --> 01:56:08.000
But it was brilliant because there was very very little

1399
01:56:08.000 --> 01:56:10.640
to do where I lived, so I used to go

1400
01:56:10.680 --> 01:56:14.479
there and I remember listening to Red red Wine because

1401
01:56:14.479 --> 01:56:19.000
they'd played songs hit songs from a jukebox or maybe

1402
01:56:19.560 --> 01:56:21.680
I don't know from where, maybe it was from the radio,

1403
01:56:22.000 --> 01:56:28.600
and they play that loud speakers, and I sometimes I'd

1404
01:56:30.000 --> 01:56:33.640
think that I was There was a mixture of characters

1405
01:56:33.640 --> 01:56:40.640
that I'd like to play. One was Inspector Cluso, but

1406
01:56:40.680 --> 01:56:48.960
then there was also mixed in with Frank Spencer, like clumsy,

1407
01:56:49.439 --> 01:56:53.039
accident prone and doing weird things. So I'd end up

1408
01:56:54.159 --> 01:56:56.359
roller skating around the wrong way because there was one

1409
01:56:56.359 --> 01:56:58.880
way to skate, and I'd go round the wrong way

1410
01:56:59.800 --> 01:57:09.159
and be screaming ah and basically only amusing myself. No

1411
01:57:09.159 --> 01:57:12.840
one else found it interesting or humorous. I was just

1412
01:57:13.159 --> 01:57:15.960
but I thought it was brilliant. But unfortunately I used

1413
01:57:16.000 --> 01:57:22.840
to lose control, and yeah, but it was. It was

1414
01:57:22.920 --> 01:57:26.279
fun for me, not for anyone else, but for me.

1415
01:57:28.159 --> 01:57:30.720
And you know what, they did. They got rid of

1416
01:57:31.439 --> 01:57:34.520
I say they the town or whoever got rid of

1417
01:57:34.560 --> 01:57:38.000
the roll of the roller skating disc thing. It was

1418
01:57:38.039 --> 01:57:40.920
like a disco, really, but it was they got rid of.

1419
01:57:40.960 --> 01:57:43.680
It was outside. I think might've had a maybe you

1420
01:57:43.720 --> 01:57:46.159
did have a cover on it. I don't know. They

1421
01:57:46.159 --> 01:57:49.880
got rid of it and they put in like a dustbin.

1422
01:57:51.399 --> 01:57:55.720
They replaced it with some kind of a place for dustbins.

1423
01:58:00.760 --> 01:58:02.520
It really and it was one of the best places

1424
01:58:02.520 --> 01:58:09.920
to go in town for kids. And it was the

1425
01:58:09.920 --> 01:58:14.079
first time I'd ever roller skated, and the roller skates

1426
01:58:14.079 --> 01:58:18.119
were old. Never had anyone anyone that could fit me

1427
01:58:18.199 --> 01:58:21.960
because my feet were extra big. I'd like clown's feet.

1428
01:58:24.680 --> 01:58:29.319
That's why I discovered I was never able to swim

1429
01:58:29.359 --> 01:58:32.680
above water, but underwater I could get from one end

1430
01:58:32.840 --> 01:58:36.720
to the other in like three seconds because of my

1431
01:58:36.760 --> 01:58:40.520
big feet. I just I used to do. The Man

1432
01:58:40.560 --> 01:58:45.279
from Atlantis started swimming, well, I just basically looked like

1433
01:58:45.319 --> 01:58:48.880
an eel, just flapping and I if you ever seen

1434
01:58:48.920 --> 01:58:55.000
men from Atlantis, just google it or YouTube like man

1435
01:58:55.039 --> 01:58:58.239
from Atlantis swimming and you'll see how he swims. That's

1436
01:58:58.239 --> 01:59:04.640
how I used to swim. It was, Yeah, it was

1437
01:59:04.800 --> 01:59:08.920
very I'm surprised I didn't hurt myself, although sometimes I did.

1438
01:59:09.000 --> 01:59:12.560
Used to bang myself on the on the face because

1439
01:59:12.800 --> 01:59:16.159
I could always see when I was getting to the end.

1440
01:59:17.520 --> 01:59:21.239
But I used to do complete lengths underwater, but I

1441
01:59:21.279 --> 01:59:23.920
struggled to do half a length on top of the water.

1442
01:59:27.680 --> 01:59:32.319
Billy Joel Uptown Girl, I remember that the Flying Pickets quite. No,

1443
01:59:32.600 --> 01:59:35.640
I'm not saying I remember Uptown Girl like I forgot

1444
01:59:35.760 --> 01:59:39.479
all about that song. No, I mean I remember, like

1445
01:59:39.560 --> 01:59:43.319
the original when it came out, the Flying Pickets. I

1446
01:59:43.600 --> 01:59:45.880
like this. This was at number one for five weeks,

1447
01:59:46.000 --> 01:59:50.720
and I remember because I think it was number one

1448
01:59:50.760 --> 02:00:00.199
at Christmas. Yeah, it was, And it was basically the

1449
02:00:00.520 --> 02:00:04.159
a cappella. So they all sung together, but there's no music.

1450
02:00:05.399 --> 02:00:09.520
Do do Do Do Do Do? So what was they do

1451
02:00:09.520 --> 02:00:11.199
do do? Do? Do Do Do Do? But and then

1452
02:00:11.279 --> 02:00:15.039
someone else I go ooh ooh. Someone else would be

1453
02:00:15.079 --> 02:00:19.720
singing la la la la la la, and another person

1454
02:00:19.720 --> 02:00:26.079
would go oh oh. And together it sounded ridiculous individually,

1455
02:00:26.319 --> 02:00:30.479
but together it sounded well. It's still just sounded ridiculous

1456
02:00:30.520 --> 02:00:32.840
if it was me singing, but it sounded good with

1457
02:00:32.880 --> 02:00:39.279
them doing it. Paul McCartney Pipes a Piece nineteen eighty four.

1458
02:00:42.840 --> 02:00:48.479
See that doesn't make sense to me, right. All I

1459
02:00:48.479 --> 02:00:52.960
can imagine is Pipes a Piece. It was released at

1460
02:00:53.000 --> 02:00:56.159
Christmas because it was a Christmas song. It was based

1461
02:00:56.520 --> 02:01:00.399
on the football match between the Germans and the English.

1462
02:01:00.960 --> 02:01:03.079
I think it was the Germans in English during the

1463
02:01:03.119 --> 02:01:07.279
First World War and Christmas Day they kind of had

1464
02:01:07.279 --> 02:01:11.000
a truce and played football and showed each other pictures

1465
02:01:11.039 --> 02:01:14.560
of their families. I don't know how realistic that was,

1466
02:01:14.640 --> 02:01:19.279
but and then they went back to their trenches and

1467
02:01:19.359 --> 02:01:23.119
I think someone accidentally had someone else's picture there of

1468
02:01:23.159 --> 02:01:27.399
their wife and fought Wow. I don't know if that's true.

1469
02:01:27.479 --> 02:01:30.960
I added that, and it was a great I really

1470
02:01:31.039 --> 02:01:34.359
liked that song. But it didn't get to number one

1471
02:01:34.439 --> 02:01:40.560
till the fourteenth of January eighty four, so I'm guessing. Yeah,

1472
02:01:40.720 --> 02:01:44.880
I'm guessing it was like number two or something at Christmas.

1473
02:01:46.359 --> 02:01:50.239
Frankie Goes to Hollywood nineteen eighty four. Now my memory

1474
02:01:50.239 --> 02:01:55.800
of this is, first of all, it wasent very very controversial,

1475
02:01:57.720 --> 02:02:06.560
very controversial in my childhood. I would say probably the

1476
02:02:06.600 --> 02:02:15.279
most controversial song during that period that I could remember. Yeah,

1477
02:02:15.359 --> 02:02:18.279
I would say that since January nineteen eighty four, so

1478
02:02:18.359 --> 02:02:23.880
I was thirteen, and what I remember there was one

1479
02:02:23.960 --> 02:02:30.439
particular my STEPMM was singing it because Radio one banned it.

1480
02:02:31.239 --> 02:02:34.680
And as soon as Radio on banned it, it got

1481
02:02:34.720 --> 02:02:37.720
to number one. It was number one for five weeks.

1482
02:02:38.399 --> 02:02:41.720
They wouldn't even they wouldn't play the video on Top

1483
02:02:41.760 --> 02:02:44.239
of the Pops. In fact, I don't think they'd even

1484
02:02:44.279 --> 02:02:50.039
play the song on top of the Pops because that

1485
02:02:50.159 --> 02:02:54.720
was like BBC Radio One with BBC, so I'm not

1486
02:02:54.800 --> 02:02:59.359
quite sure how they worked around it. But I did

1487
02:02:59.399 --> 02:03:05.680
see the video, so I saw it somewhere. I just

1488
02:03:05.760 --> 02:03:13.640
remember seeing my stepm. I'm dancing around singing or holding

1489
02:03:13.640 --> 02:03:15.960
a spatula or something, I really cooking in the kitchen,

1490
02:03:16.239 --> 02:03:19.479
and she was like singing, relaxed, don't do weird on it.

1491
02:03:19.560 --> 02:03:21.880
She was like dancing with a song. Because it was

1492
02:03:21.920 --> 02:03:24.079
a huge hit. I mean, it was the biggest song

1493
02:03:25.039 --> 02:03:29.079
possibly in the Western world at the time. I'm not

1494
02:03:29.079 --> 02:03:32.439
sure how popular it was in the Middle East. I

1495
02:03:32.520 --> 02:03:36.239
don't know, but it definitely Russia. But I don't know

1496
02:03:36.239 --> 02:03:41.279
if it really hit the charts in Russia or in career,

1497
02:03:41.439 --> 02:03:44.960
I don't know, or China. I'm not sure, but in

1498
02:03:45.039 --> 02:03:50.680
ended like the Western sphere. It was a very big song.

1499
02:03:51.680 --> 02:03:58.439
And there's this one bit where she was singing and

1500
02:03:58.479 --> 02:04:03.720
she was dancing and she just stopped just as they said, relaxed,

1501
02:04:03.720 --> 02:04:06.399
don't do it when you want to relax, don't do it,

1502
02:04:07.119 --> 02:04:09.880
and then like when you want to come, and she

1503
02:04:10.119 --> 02:04:14.560
just stopped and stood there as a statue, all right.

1504
02:04:15.600 --> 02:04:17.800
And I was thinking, I wondered, do you know what

1505
02:04:17.840 --> 02:04:21.800
the song's about, Mummy dearest? Do you do you know?

1506
02:04:22.319 --> 02:04:27.039
Because I knew, I kind of knew. Someone told me

1507
02:04:28.920 --> 02:04:32.319
a friend. I read it in a magazine. No, I didn't.

1508
02:04:32.319 --> 02:04:35.359
I didn't know what it was about. I knew what

1509
02:04:35.439 --> 02:04:40.720
the I did, I kind of did. I didn't completely,

1510
02:04:41.279 --> 02:04:45.920
to be honest, I was thirteen years old. I kind

1511
02:04:45.920 --> 02:04:50.760
of knew. But I just remember thinking, I don't think

1512
02:04:50.800 --> 02:04:55.840
she knows what it's the song's about. Ninety nine red Balloons,

1513
02:04:56.159 --> 02:05:00.279
Nina ninety nine. Didn't she do that in different lan? Which?

1514
02:05:00.359 --> 02:05:03.399
Did it in German? Didn't she? Or part of the

1515
02:05:03.439 --> 02:05:08.720
song in German? And or bargain chin compang or porkyin

1516
02:05:08.800 --> 02:05:15.319
honey he Napoon. I don't know. Maybe it was a

1517
02:05:15.319 --> 02:05:19.800
different language that was number one for three weeks. Lana

1518
02:05:19.920 --> 02:05:27.520
Richie Hello, Yeah, that was do you know what? There

1519
02:05:27.600 --> 02:05:32.199
was two songs, and both of them were from nineteen

1520
02:05:32.239 --> 02:05:37.640
eighty four, which men, I don't want to say all men,

1521
02:05:37.720 --> 02:05:45.439
but some males used as in a way to be

1522
02:05:45.800 --> 02:05:55.840
romantic to ladies, some ladies, some men and some ladies.

1523
02:05:57.039 --> 02:06:03.199
And one of those was on a telephone hello is

1524
02:06:03.279 --> 02:06:05.600
with me? Or like you know, when someone answered the

1525
02:06:05.640 --> 02:06:11.840
phone or they call hello. And another one was Stevie Wonder.

1526
02:06:13.359 --> 02:06:16.720
I just called it say I love you. You know.

1527
02:06:16.880 --> 02:06:19.479
It's like I can't say cheesy, but I think I

1528
02:06:19.520 --> 02:06:22.079
don't know if it worked. I don't know. I tried

1529
02:06:22.119 --> 02:06:24.439
it in later years, but it didn't work. I tried

1530
02:06:24.479 --> 02:06:28.079
it once at school at the time, like in nineteen

1531
02:06:28.119 --> 02:06:33.760
eighty four, but just got me detention. Apparently I shouldn't

1532
02:06:33.760 --> 02:06:38.840
be talking to the teacher like that inappropriate Lano Richie, Hello,

1533
02:06:39.119 --> 02:06:45.399
Durandre around the reflex, wham wham, wake me up before

1534
02:06:45.399 --> 02:06:50.000
you go go. So I was definitely working at this

1535
02:06:50.039 --> 02:07:03.680
point in the the bakery, in the restaurant play, Yeah,

1536
02:07:03.880 --> 02:07:06.680
I was definitely. So. I was hearing these songs regularly,

1537
02:07:07.279 --> 02:07:15.319
including Relax because they had radio Caroline on which was

1538
02:07:15.640 --> 02:07:19.079
a band station, but anyone could get it. It just

1539
02:07:19.079 --> 02:07:21.119
had to just tune into it. And it was this

1540
02:07:21.359 --> 02:07:25.720
ship docked off of the back in the waters, I think,

1541
02:07:25.800 --> 02:07:29.880
just out of British waters. So it wasn't upbreaking any rules,

1542
02:07:30.880 --> 02:07:35.479
but it was not. It didn't have a license, and

1543
02:07:35.520 --> 02:07:39.720
they'd play all the top hits and then I think

1544
02:07:39.720 --> 02:07:45.840
they became legal and whatever turned into another I don't

1545
02:07:45.840 --> 02:07:49.399
know who. I don't really know the history. Actually i'd

1546
02:07:49.399 --> 02:07:51.119
been making it up, and as you know, I don't

1547
02:07:51.159 --> 02:07:54.000
like to make things up. I'd like to be very factuel.

1548
02:07:56.640 --> 02:08:00.359
See this is my period, nineteen eighty four again, Pipes

1549
02:08:00.399 --> 02:08:07.439
of Peace, Relax, Hello, the reflex flexxx xx Duran Duran.

1550
02:08:08.439 --> 02:08:11.720
So I was definitely working in the bakehouse at this time,

1551
02:08:14.079 --> 02:08:19.359
Saturday and Sunday mornings early and also during the summer

1552
02:08:19.399 --> 02:08:21.560
as well. So nineteen eighty four, during the summer I

1553
02:08:21.640 --> 02:08:33.359
was doing it, and I was also, uh but bum

1554
02:08:33.399 --> 02:08:40.880
bum bum bum bum. Right, I can give you an idea, right,

1555
02:08:42.319 --> 02:08:45.520
So I was doing karate, but I remember one particular

1556
02:08:45.840 --> 02:08:50.800
there's this the only song I remember whilst I was

1557
02:08:50.840 --> 02:08:59.960
doing karate, and I'm going down here is nineteen eighty five,

1558
02:09:00.960 --> 02:09:04.600
There must be an Angel Playing with my Heart and

1559
02:09:04.640 --> 02:09:07.960
that was number one twenty seventh of July nineteen eighty five.

1560
02:09:09.800 --> 02:09:12.079
I don't know how on earth that didn't stay at

1561
02:09:12.119 --> 02:09:20.199
number one forever because it was, in my opinion, one

1562
02:09:20.199 --> 02:09:27.000
of the greatest vocals ever, I mean just ever. It

1563
02:09:27.159 --> 02:09:38.159
was phenomenal. Ana Lynux just had one heck of a voice.

1564
02:09:38.680 --> 02:09:43.119
But I remember, I don't know why, I just remember

1565
02:09:43.199 --> 02:09:49.880
hearing that song during that period of doing karate, and

1566
02:09:52.279 --> 02:09:54.520
that period I wouldn't have seen top of the Pops

1567
02:09:55.039 --> 02:10:01.319
because I was out every Tuesday and Thursday evening apart

1568
02:10:01.359 --> 02:10:05.039
from during the summer actually the summer period, so like

1569
02:10:05.239 --> 02:10:12.800
during July. Yeah, so July, I wouldn't have been doing it,

1570
02:10:15.399 --> 02:10:17.159
but I might have been meeting up with them because

1571
02:10:17.159 --> 02:10:20.479
we used to meet up at the park because the school.

1572
02:10:20.520 --> 02:10:26.920
Once the school was closed, couldn't use the the what's it,

1573
02:10:27.000 --> 02:10:34.560
you know, the hall, the sports hall for however many weeks.

1574
02:10:38.279 --> 02:10:42.560
But I still trained, So I'm going to go back.

1575
02:10:42.680 --> 02:10:49.920
Frankie goes to Hollywood two Tribes again. Loved that so definitely.

1576
02:10:50.239 --> 02:10:58.520
Nineteen eighty four, I was working in the bakery. George

1577
02:10:58.560 --> 02:11:02.439
Michael Careless whisper Stevie Wonder. I just call this say

1578
02:11:02.479 --> 02:11:07.319
I Love You September nineteen eighty four, the eighth of September.

1579
02:11:07.600 --> 02:11:11.880
That was number one for six weeks. Two Tribes was

1580
02:11:11.960 --> 02:11:21.680
number one for nine weeks. Wow. So that's got to

1581
02:11:21.720 --> 02:11:26.079
be one of Steve Wonder's biggest all time hits as

1582
02:11:26.119 --> 02:11:29.399
far as being number one. Did he get to number

1583
02:11:29.439 --> 02:11:33.520
one for longer than that with any other songs? I

1584
02:11:33.560 --> 02:11:40.920
don't know that. Perhaps is the Tuesday trivia. I don't know.

1585
02:11:41.079 --> 02:11:44.239
Maybe this is trivia. Is this trivia? I don't know.

1586
02:11:44.359 --> 02:11:46.960
This is kind of trivia and boredom at the same time,

1587
02:11:47.039 --> 02:11:49.960
isn't it. But I'm just talking about my favorite songs.

1588
02:11:50.119 --> 02:11:55.039
So the Power of Love that is my favorite. Frankie

1589
02:11:55.039 --> 02:11:59.159
Go is the Hollywood song out of all of them.

1590
02:11:59.319 --> 02:12:05.079
The Power of Love. No, it isn't wait a minute,

1591
02:12:05.159 --> 02:12:10.479
there was another one. Oh no, the power of Love.

1592
02:12:11.560 --> 02:12:18.520
It comes from above here in my home. So relax.

1593
02:12:20.640 --> 02:12:24.600
Two Tribes, the Power of Love all got to number

1594
02:12:24.640 --> 02:12:29.479
one in nineteen eighty four. Didn't they do another song

1595
02:12:29.479 --> 02:12:30.640
that I liked?

1596
02:12:34.840 --> 02:12:34.880
It?

1597
02:12:35.000 --> 02:12:42.600
Did another song that I liked? The alay is that

1598
02:12:42.640 --> 02:12:48.520
I've got to go back discography? Oh, Welcome to the

1599
02:12:48.520 --> 02:12:54.960
Pleasure though, Welcome to the Pollutionional. So why is that

1600
02:12:55.079 --> 02:13:00.760
not listed? Then that's what I don't understand. It's not listed.

1601
02:13:03.359 --> 02:13:09.800
Frankie goes to Hollywood, Welcome to the Pleasure Home. Nope,

1602
02:13:09.840 --> 02:13:12.880
it's not It's not listed in nineteen eighty four. So

1603
02:13:13.000 --> 02:13:19.000
this isn't all correct, I would argue. So unless it

1604
02:13:19.079 --> 02:13:23.399
was the B side, perhaps I should have known better.

1605
02:13:23.520 --> 02:13:27.119
Jim Diamond, is that was I should have known better.

1606
02:13:27.800 --> 02:13:30.039
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do,

1607
02:13:31.039 --> 02:13:34.520
which is a wonderful song. And then do they know

1608
02:13:34.560 --> 02:13:40.079
it's Christmas December nineteen eighty four, so it's a Christmas

1609
02:13:40.199 --> 02:13:46.399
number one five weeks it was not number one, So yeah,

1610
02:13:46.520 --> 02:13:49.039
definitely I love that song as well. But I love

1611
02:13:49.079 --> 02:14:04.680
the American one as well, the Christmas but the American

1612
02:14:04.760 --> 02:14:07.279
version I just can't remember what it's called now, But

1613
02:14:07.359 --> 02:14:10.239
I like that as well. I thought they're both great,

1614
02:14:11.119 --> 02:14:14.039
and it's both for the same reason, wasn't it. It's

1615
02:14:14.119 --> 02:14:18.119
just the American one had Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder

1616
02:14:18.159 --> 02:14:22.960
and the Boss and I don't mean Molly, I mean

1617
02:14:23.359 --> 02:14:36.520
Bruce Spinstein and Tina Turner and Cindy Lauper did Madonna

1618
02:14:38.199 --> 02:14:40.520
do it as well? Because you know what, I see

1619
02:14:40.560 --> 02:14:43.159
the thing. It might be a weird thing to say

1620
02:14:43.199 --> 02:14:48.920
that Cindy Lauper is like Madonna kind of. I'm not

1621
02:14:49.079 --> 02:14:53.520
saying Madonna copied Cyndy Lauper, but Cindy Lauper was kind

1622
02:14:53.520 --> 02:14:57.479
of almost like the original Madonna. But then you could

1623
02:14:57.520 --> 02:15:08.600
say that Blondie Debbie Allen, Debbie Allen, Debbie, you know, Blondie,

1624
02:15:08.960 --> 02:15:14.880
that maybe she was the original Madonna. And I'm not

1625
02:15:14.920 --> 02:15:19.760
saying it's just because they're blonde, but they're not all blonde,

1626
02:15:19.800 --> 02:15:23.399
are they. I mean Debbie Harry, not Alan. Debbie Harry

1627
02:15:23.479 --> 02:15:27.880
was blonde, but she probably wasn't blonde anyway. Sydney Lord

1628
02:15:28.079 --> 02:15:34.039
had all colors of hair. Time Are the Time? I

1629
02:15:34.159 --> 02:15:39.239
love that song so much, and then Madonna. The dog's

1630
02:15:39.279 --> 02:15:44.199
barking again. Hasn't barked hardly any yeah, hardly anything today.

1631
02:15:45.840 --> 02:15:47.560
I'd say it's weird. I looked out the window the

1632
02:15:47.600 --> 02:15:49.680
other day because the dog was just barking and barking

1633
02:15:49.680 --> 02:15:54.119
and barking, and I'm thinking, why doesn't the owner told

1634
02:15:54.119 --> 02:15:57.479
them try and calm the dog down? Because I do

1635
02:15:57.560 --> 02:16:00.920
that when Finny starts barking, try and calm him down

1636
02:16:01.000 --> 02:16:04.039
so that these neighbors are not disturbed. I looked out

1637
02:16:04.079 --> 02:16:08.039
the window, and she's just standing there or he, whoever

1638
02:16:08.079 --> 02:16:12.279
it is, just standing there watching a dog barking like

1639
02:16:12.439 --> 02:16:15.720
really loud for a good ten to fifteen minutes. I

1640
02:16:16.359 --> 02:16:19.520
wasn't watching for ten to fifteen minutes, but it'd been

1641
02:16:19.560 --> 02:16:23.560
barking for that amount of time before I looked, and

1642
02:16:23.600 --> 02:16:28.319
I was just checking to make sure everything was okay.

1643
02:16:28.479 --> 02:16:36.200
I'm thinking, Wow, it's I don't think even if I'd

1644
02:16:36.239 --> 02:16:43.760
got like ten different doctorates in some kind of psychological

1645
02:16:44.360 --> 02:16:51.639
different psychological subjects, I still wouldn't understand humans. Foreigner. I

1646
02:16:51.680 --> 02:16:53.760
want to know what love is. I want you to

1647
02:16:53.799 --> 02:17:00.959
show me a lame page. I know him so well,

1648
02:17:02.000 --> 02:17:05.959
dead or alive. You spin me right round, right round

1649
02:17:06.079 --> 02:17:10.440
round like a record. Mean So Phil Bailey and for

1650
02:17:10.879 --> 02:17:16.040
Easy Lover? I love that song what happened to Phil Bailey?

1651
02:17:16.440 --> 02:17:20.120
Because I would argue Phil Bailey was the best vocals

1652
02:17:20.159 --> 02:17:23.200
on that song. And I haven't Phil Collins fan, but

1653
02:17:23.600 --> 02:17:28.079
Phil Bailey, them two together, they should have done more.

1654
02:17:32.000 --> 02:17:34.200
You may argue against this. You might think, oh, it's

1655
02:17:34.200 --> 02:17:38.399
a silly thing to say, but I'll say anyway, hell

1656
02:17:38.639 --> 02:17:44.600
like yeah, especially on my car. My thing is a

1657
02:17:44.639 --> 02:17:48.959
silly thing to say, but I kind of think that

1658
02:17:49.000 --> 02:17:53.280
they should have done more together as a kind of

1659
02:17:53.280 --> 02:17:57.520
a little double act, you know. I mean, Phil Collins

1660
02:17:57.559 --> 02:17:59.360
had a lot on his plate, didn't. Let's face it

1661
02:18:00.079 --> 02:18:03.000
if that greedy was used to eat a lot. But

1662
02:18:03.159 --> 02:18:06.120
now he had his band, and then he had his own,

1663
02:18:06.440 --> 02:18:11.959
you know, solo career. But the harmonies with him and

1664
02:18:12.000 --> 02:18:19.559
Phil Bailey singing together was just beautiful, and I would

1665
02:18:19.680 --> 02:18:23.559
liked to have seen them do more together. That's just

1666
02:18:23.959 --> 02:18:29.280
my personal opinion. I mean, I realize we're eighty five

1667
02:18:29.520 --> 02:18:34.680
ninety five, two thousand and five, twenty fifteen, twenty twenty five,

1668
02:18:35.040 --> 02:18:40.280
forty years too late, but hey, all we are the world.

1669
02:18:41.120 --> 02:18:45.319
So that was the American version of our one, and

1670
02:18:46.600 --> 02:18:53.280
we are a world, we are the children. I would both,

1671
02:18:54.280 --> 02:18:57.360
I would argue, I wouldn't argue, but I would say

1672
02:18:57.399 --> 02:19:03.280
both equally great song, just ruined a bit by the video.

1673
02:19:04.840 --> 02:19:07.239
I just I don't know, just both of them. I

1674
02:19:07.319 --> 02:19:10.040
just don't like I know that was the cause, that

1675
02:19:10.120 --> 02:19:14.040
was the reason for the music. I know that I've

1676
02:19:14.040 --> 02:19:19.600
always struggled with things like these big charity events where

1677
02:19:20.000 --> 02:19:24.360
they have comedy music, but there's like really funny comedy

1678
02:19:24.399 --> 02:19:28.840
sketch and then I'll go to a really super serious

1679
02:19:29.799 --> 02:19:35.200
subject and I can't. I can't switch myself like that.

1680
02:19:35.200 --> 02:19:37.760
That's why I have to avoid some TV channels, because

1681
02:19:38.840 --> 02:19:43.319
some of these like daytime channels and only something on

1682
02:19:43.360 --> 02:19:47.360
in the evening as well, where they'll show old TV shows,

1683
02:19:47.399 --> 02:19:51.600
old comedies which I quite like watching sometimes, like Whatever

1684
02:19:51.639 --> 02:19:54.760
Happened to the Likely Lads and just shows from like

1685
02:19:55.079 --> 02:19:59.399
decades ago that I just quite like watching. But then

1686
02:19:59.440 --> 02:20:06.799
in the advert it's like Donkey Sanctuaries and eyelid surgery

1687
02:20:06.920 --> 02:20:10.040
and all. It's like I just like, nah, man, I

1688
02:20:10.159 --> 02:20:14.319
just I'm trying to just enjoy myself and just chill out.

1689
02:20:15.479 --> 02:20:24.000
So yeah, I kind of there's yeah, I'm just moaning

1690
02:20:24.040 --> 02:20:29.120
and I Phyllis Nelson moved closer, moved closer. And of

1691
02:20:29.120 --> 02:20:36.600
course Paul Hardcastle nineteen number one for five weeks. I

1692
02:20:36.680 --> 02:20:43.760
mean that that really that was the one heck of

1693
02:20:43.799 --> 02:20:46.680
a video, wasn't it. If you don't remember, it was

1694
02:20:48.559 --> 02:21:03.479
No nineteen nineteen, No nineteen No nineteen nineteen nine, nineteen nineteen, Yeah, wow,

1695
02:21:04.840 --> 02:21:07.760
the crowd You'll never walk alone. Then that's an old

1696
02:21:07.799 --> 02:21:11.479
that's been done so many times, isn't it. My favorite

1697
02:21:11.520 --> 02:21:17.440
version is Elvis Presley walking through Storm Moved your head

1698
02:21:17.959 --> 02:21:26.120
Pie Sister Seledged, Frankie, I love that song. Frankie and

1699
02:21:26.799 --> 02:21:30.399
dressed as cheerleaders, which we don't well, we didn't have

1700
02:21:30.639 --> 02:21:34.479
in this country, So cheerleaders was something that was foreign

1701
02:21:35.280 --> 02:21:43.319
to this country in nineteen eighty five, and they were

1702
02:21:43.360 --> 02:21:45.600
doing I don't know, it's like a triangle, We're all

1703
02:21:45.639 --> 02:21:48.760
standing on each other's heads and stuff, and it was brilliant.

1704
02:21:48.959 --> 02:21:53.120
Loved it and really big fan that song number one

1705
02:21:53.120 --> 02:21:58.200
for four weeks. Then you have mixed They must be

1706
02:21:58.239 --> 02:22:13.719
an Angel, seventh of July nineteen eighty five. Umm but

1707
02:22:13.840 --> 02:22:17.200
boom but boom boom, boom boom. That's one of my

1708
02:22:17.280 --> 02:22:21.799
all time favorite songs. It just is. It will always be.

1709
02:22:22.360 --> 02:22:27.239
But sometimes I forget. I forget that it is because

1710
02:22:29.680 --> 02:22:32.799
although individually I like a lot of the eur of

1711
02:22:32.840 --> 02:22:37.280
mix songs, I never ever once listened to a EU

1712
02:22:37.360 --> 02:22:45.040
of mix album. Madonna Into the Groove nineteen eighty five,

1713
02:22:46.840 --> 02:22:49.959
You Be That was kind of Madonna was starting just

1714
02:22:50.079 --> 02:22:59.840
making a Was that her first song in number one yeah,

1715
02:23:00.000 --> 02:23:01.799
I think it was a number first number one song

1716
02:23:01.840 --> 02:23:06.799
in the UK four weeks and then ub forty Chrissy

1717
02:23:06.920 --> 02:23:12.200
Hyde I Got You Babe. Yeah, like that David Bowie

1718
02:23:12.239 --> 02:23:15.959
and Mick Jagger dancing in the street four weeks at

1719
02:23:16.040 --> 02:23:24.760
number one. I think that it was like a comedy video,

1720
02:23:24.840 --> 02:23:32.440
wasn't it. And seeing David Bowie and Mick Jagger literally dancing,

1721
02:23:36.360 --> 02:23:38.959
it was so funny that people just kept they wanted

1722
02:23:38.959 --> 02:23:45.639
to keep watching it on TV. The video midyeal. If

1723
02:23:45.680 --> 02:23:49.319
I was that was a good song as well. If

1724
02:23:49.440 --> 02:23:56.799
I was that was number one. Jennifer Rushed the Power

1725
02:23:56.799 --> 02:24:07.479
of Love. Wow, huge, huge, huge hit, A great ballad

1726
02:24:08.319 --> 02:24:14.319
wow wow yeah amazing and Fergle Sharky a good heart,

1727
02:24:14.799 --> 02:24:18.520
a good heart to it. Yeah, I like that. I'm

1728
02:24:18.559 --> 02:24:23.360
your man. Wham Whitney Houston Save All My Love for You.

1729
02:24:24.120 --> 02:24:29.840
So that Whitney Houston's first number one hit two weeks

1730
02:24:29.920 --> 02:24:34.879
and it was a fourteenth December eighty five, so I

1731
02:24:35.040 --> 02:24:45.959
was now fifteen. Shaking Stevens Merry Christmas Everyone was the

1732
02:24:46.000 --> 02:25:00.719
twenty eighth of December, so technically technically Saving All My

1733
02:25:00.799 --> 02:25:07.520
Love for You was the Christmas number one, but Shaking

1734
02:25:07.600 --> 02:25:10.399
Stephens I thought that Merry Christmas Everyone was the number

1735
02:25:10.440 --> 02:25:14.120
one song for Christmas, but it says twenty eight for December,

1736
02:25:14.479 --> 02:25:20.399
but then it might be wrong. It would be the

1737
02:25:20.399 --> 02:25:25.120
most played song though at that time, being Christmas and

1738
02:25:25.159 --> 02:25:29.360
all wet. So that was like nineteen eighty five was

1739
02:25:29.399 --> 02:25:34.600
the last full year of living in the big house

1740
02:25:36.079 --> 02:25:41.559
with my family, and then we just had the first

1741
02:25:41.600 --> 02:25:45.600
few months of ninet eighty six. So west End Girls,

1742
02:25:45.639 --> 02:25:51.239
Pet Shop Boys, our hardest sun always shines on TV

1743
02:25:53.239 --> 02:25:56.079
Bill the Ocean We're in the Going gets stuff for

1744
02:25:56.239 --> 02:26:00.959
to get going. Diana Ross still making songs Chain Reaction.

1745
02:26:03.000 --> 02:26:06.040
Wasn't that an old song? It is now, I guess,

1746
02:26:06.079 --> 02:26:12.079
But wasn't Cliff Richard and the ones living doll So

1747
02:26:12.239 --> 02:26:25.079
that was the young ones as in Rick mal Adrian Edmondson, Yeah,

1748
02:26:25.159 --> 02:26:29.040
and the other two God forgets, I forget their names now.

1749
02:26:30.559 --> 02:26:32.600
I never did learn the name of the little one,

1750
02:26:35.799 --> 02:26:41.200
George Michael A different corner Falco Rock Me Amadeus, Wow,

1751
02:26:41.959 --> 02:26:46.639
whether we rock me Amadias a Medeias Amadias and Medeias

1752
02:26:46.639 --> 02:26:50.799
and Medeias and Medias loved that song. Rock Me Amadias

1753
02:26:53.920 --> 02:26:57.799
BlimE me, Papa, don't preach I remember that twelfth of

1754
02:26:57.879 --> 02:27:01.200
July nineteen eighty six. I was living in the flat

1755
02:27:01.639 --> 02:27:07.319
with my step mom's mom, my step mom's step mom,

1756
02:27:07.840 --> 02:27:11.680
my step mom, my step grandmother, and I used to

1757
02:27:11.719 --> 02:27:16.360
watch Papa Don't Preach the video and I loved it.

1758
02:27:16.959 --> 02:27:23.000
Loved that video. Although True Blue, I love that video

1759
02:27:23.200 --> 02:27:27.239
much more. I had it on tape, recorded it and

1760
02:27:27.319 --> 02:27:30.120
I wore the tape out. I loved it that much.

1761
02:27:31.479 --> 02:27:36.040
But as a song, Papa Don't Preach is one of

1762
02:27:36.120 --> 02:27:40.440
my favorite songs Madonna ever did. Just that one off song.

1763
02:27:40.520 --> 02:27:43.200
I loved it, and I loved the album True Blue,

1764
02:27:44.079 --> 02:27:47.200
and that's one of my favorite. My two favorite albums

1765
02:27:47.239 --> 02:27:55.600
of Madonna. True Blue and Like a Prayer. Wow, Christy

1766
02:27:55.680 --> 02:28:07.840
Burgh Lady in Red. So my sixteenth birthday, Okay, when

1767
02:28:07.879 --> 02:28:12.040
I turned sixteen, the number one song was Boris Gardner.

1768
02:28:12.319 --> 02:28:16.239
I want to wake up with you, and I think

1769
02:28:16.280 --> 02:28:21.840
anyone's ever said that to me. I want to wake

1770
02:28:22.040 --> 02:28:26.200
up with you. Anyway, I'm going to bring this to

1771
02:28:26.280 --> 02:28:30.479
an end because noisy people are outside again, so I

1772
02:28:30.520 --> 02:28:33.319
would say thank you for listening. Remember to be kind

1773
02:28:33.360 --> 02:28:36.319
to yourself because you do deserve to be happy and

1774
02:28:36.440 --> 02:28:40.600
be gentle of yourself. He deserves to feel safe, lots

1775
02:28:40.639 --> 02:29:01.399
of love bye, relax in a more deep and meaningful way,

1776
02:29:03.920 --> 02:29:08.920
maybe in a way that can not just allow you

1777
02:29:09.479 --> 02:29:19.440
to feel calmer now and throughout the time we've spend

1778
02:29:19.559 --> 02:29:27.479
together here, not just relaxed at the end of the

1779
02:29:27.600 --> 02:29:32.920
recording when it's finished and you can enjoy that sense

1780
02:29:33.079 --> 02:29:49.680
of comfort and peace, but also I think it would

1781
02:29:49.719 --> 02:30:05.559
be nice to have those feelings of vexation continue for

1782
02:30:05.799 --> 02:30:17.600
longer after the recording has ended, so that you can

1783
02:30:19.360 --> 02:30:29.920
still benefit from listening to my voice, maybe in a

1784
02:30:30.040 --> 02:30:42.479
few hours time, perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly,

1785
02:30:45.600 --> 02:30:50.200
especially if you find like some people do and myself

1786
02:30:50.280 --> 02:30:54.799
as well. I sometimes I find one particular recording that

1787
02:30:55.040 --> 02:31:03.639
really resonates with me, and I just listened to it

1788
02:31:03.799 --> 02:31:16.639
over and over again every morning, every evening. There was

1789
02:31:16.719 --> 02:31:22.399
this recording from We're going back to about nineteen ninety nine.

1790
02:31:24.120 --> 02:31:29.639
It wasn't hypnosis, but it was a guided visualizations. It

1791
02:31:29.760 --> 02:31:36.920
kind of was hypnosis, really, and I managed to find

1792
02:31:36.959 --> 02:31:41.000
it again and it still has the same effect on me.

1793
02:31:43.639 --> 02:31:53.360
And part of it was the person's voice relaxed me

1794
02:31:57.399 --> 02:32:04.000
just felt so peaceful, and I'd look forward to listening

1795
02:32:04.600 --> 02:32:16.440
to her in the morning and in the evening, and

1796
02:32:17.000 --> 02:32:25.639
I knew before even pressing the play button that as

1797
02:32:25.760 --> 02:32:29.799
soon as I've done that pressed the play button. This

1798
02:32:30.079 --> 02:32:41.520
is in the days of CD players, press the play button.

1799
02:32:44.920 --> 02:32:47.680
If that it might have even been a tape tape recorder,

1800
02:32:49.040 --> 02:32:57.360
I'd lie down on the bed and then even without

1801
02:32:57.959 --> 02:33:10.879
necessarily listening to her words because I had to memorized. Really,

1802
02:33:15.600 --> 02:33:21.440
it was as if my body knew exactly what to do,

1803
02:33:26.360 --> 02:33:48.040
and the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and

1804
02:33:48.319 --> 02:34:02.000
I remember my mind would slow down. Now. Now, I

1805
02:34:02.399 --> 02:34:08.559
was listening to this recording in the early days of

1806
02:34:08.719 --> 02:34:19.280
learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made any videos

1807
02:34:19.559 --> 02:34:24.200
or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that

1808
02:34:24.399 --> 02:34:38.760
till two thousand and six, I knew, I knew how

1809
02:34:40.600 --> 02:34:54.360
helpful I found being able to just let go, to

1810
02:34:54.520 --> 02:34:59.639
have that trust in the person that I'm listening to,

1811
02:35:07.399 --> 02:35:14.120
knowing that it's going to be just as relaxing, if

1812
02:35:15.559 --> 02:35:24.879
not more so. Each time you hear my voice, you

1813
02:35:25.000 --> 02:35:36.559
may feel the same. Some people have been listening to

1814
02:35:36.719 --> 02:35:50.520
me for over a decade. Maybe not solidly, obviously, not

1815
02:35:50.639 --> 02:35:56.920
twenty four hours a day, but maybe people come back.

1816
02:35:58.799 --> 02:36:12.399
Some people may be listening every day. That's something that

1817
02:36:12.559 --> 02:36:25.479
I do which you may not realize by listening, is

1818
02:36:29.639 --> 02:36:43.920
when I record these recordings. Now. For example, I also

1819
02:36:45.479 --> 02:36:56.639
am affected by the words that I say. So if

1820
02:36:56.760 --> 02:37:05.840
I say, do you focus on your feet, notice your

1821
02:37:05.959 --> 02:37:17.840
feet relaxing, I will be focusing on my feet. I

1822
02:37:17.959 --> 02:37:35.719
will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus

1823
02:37:35.840 --> 02:37:43.680
on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between each hand,

1824
02:37:47.840 --> 02:37:54.559
perhaps notice the the air in the room, the temperature

1825
02:37:54.680 --> 02:38:06.520
of the room. On the backs of your hands. You

1826
02:38:06.639 --> 02:38:10.680
may start to notice what almost feels like a very

1827
02:38:10.879 --> 02:38:19.239
light breeze, even though there may not be any type

1828
02:38:19.280 --> 02:38:32.079
of breeze at all where you are right now. And

1829
02:38:32.280 --> 02:38:43.479
as you become aware of your hands, I'm also aware

1830
02:38:46.159 --> 02:38:54.680
of how relaxed my hands are feeling.

1831
02:38:56.159 --> 02:38:56.319
Now.

1832
02:39:11.120 --> 02:39:16.920
And when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep,

1833
02:39:18.040 --> 02:39:30.600
which may be the reason you're listening, I also feel

1834
02:39:30.799 --> 02:39:45.000
drowsy when I make these recordings. I also notice my

1835
02:39:45.319 --> 02:40:01.559
mind drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep

1836
02:40:07.239 --> 02:40:21.639
without even noticing, and then I carry on talking. It's

1837
02:40:21.760 --> 02:40:30.760
only when I listen back to do the editing I

1838
02:40:30.920 --> 02:40:40.120
hear snoring and I think I don't remember snoring. I

1839
02:40:40.239 --> 02:40:46.879
remember talking. Was this snoring was a pig turned up.

1840
02:40:50.920 --> 02:40:58.319
That's why I sound like when I snare and I

1841
02:40:58.399 --> 02:41:11.840
get really into the whole experience. I don't know how

1842
02:41:12.000 --> 02:41:24.559
you feel, how relaxed you feel in your feet, how

1843
02:41:24.719 --> 02:41:50.120
relaxed you feel in your hands. I have noticed more

1844
02:41:50.280 --> 02:42:06.840
and more that the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort

1845
02:42:08.840 --> 02:42:24.000
you feel, the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like

1846
02:42:26.840 --> 02:42:44.879
that additional muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe

1847
02:42:45.239 --> 02:43:11.120
easier without necessarily focusing on your breath, however, being able

1848
02:43:11.239 --> 02:43:40.479
to notice the ease in which you breathe so naturally.

1849
02:43:55.200 --> 02:44:30.479
You breathe so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine

1850
02:44:37.879 --> 02:44:53.879
my breathing improving. When I've got my eyes closed, I

1851
02:44:54.159 --> 02:45:07.600
tend to visualize a beautiful field with trees and flowers

1852
02:45:14.440 --> 02:45:47.280
producing all that life giving oxygen. It feels nice to,

1853
02:45:49.040 --> 02:46:07.959
if nothing else, just taking some time away from everything,

1854
02:46:19.280 --> 02:46:51.799
enjoying that feeling of peace serenity with a joyful heart.

1855
02:47:17.159 --> 02:47:42.639
Time seems to just drip by so very slowly, relaxed,

1856
02:47:48.559 --> 02:48:27.719
so deeply peaceful, completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in

1857
02:48:27.879 --> 02:49:32.239
this moment, completely free, noticing that your mind has slowed down.

1858
02:49:40.559 --> 02:50:27.239
Slowed down because nothing really requires your attention. You can

1859
02:50:27.520 --> 02:50:43.639
enjoy the physical sensations of allowing the stress to rip

1860
02:50:44.399 --> 02:50:57.879
out of your body, to appear out of every part

1861
02:51:04.120 --> 02:51:28.399
of your body, and being released from your brain. Ng

1862
02:51:28.719 --> 02:52:20.159
your mind slowly but surely, the muscle sing les, relax

1863
02:52:37.360 --> 02:53:18.040
so very deeply, rex so deeply, and the feelings, the

1864
02:53:18.280 --> 02:53:43.559
pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders, deepening each part

1865
02:53:43.719 --> 02:54:24.639
of your body further and deeper and deeper. Noticine, the

1866
02:54:24.840 --> 02:55:26.159
feelings in the back of your neck, feelings in your wrists, muscles,

1867
02:55:28.239 --> 02:56:05.479
in front of your body. I all say, feeling peaceful deeply,

1868
02:56:22.559 --> 02:56:32.840
there's a sense of peace spreads through your fairy core.

1869
02:57:03.360 --> 02:57:23.200
Even when you focus on your mind. Your mind becomes

1870
02:57:30.600 --> 02:58:53.440
beve and slower, even deeper. Relax so very slow, his stomach,

1871
02:59:07.559 --> 02:59:49.559
he's fall in your stomach, You're back. Notice Notice how

1872
02:59:49.799 --> 03:00:07.760
relaxed you'd never feel in the hole of your back.

1873
03:00:32.959 --> 03:00:42.000
You spy from your brain all the way down the

1874
03:00:42.159 --> 03:00:52.799
middle of your back, sending and receiving millions of messages

1875
03:00:53.559 --> 03:02:25.040
every day, deepcomfort, increasing, deeply relaxed, uns legs, spreading those

1876
03:02:25.280 --> 03:02:34.399
signals down a spine or cord into air, every part

1877
03:02:34.879 --> 03:03:21.120
of your body, your shins and your calf, muscles, your elbows,

1878
03:03:37.559 --> 03:03:55.000
Feelings of peace and tranquility spreading through your body, tips

1879
03:03:55.040 --> 03:04:10.920
of your toes, to your eyes, your fingers, all the

1880
03:04:11.000 --> 03:04:27.959
way till you lower back. The tinker read there, the

1881
03:04:28.120 --> 03:05:38.120
tinker peace h drifting mind just wandering away, happy to

1882
03:05:38.440 --> 03:06:42.719
let go, let go completely, let go, so tranquil, the

1883
03:06:42.840 --> 03:07:20.440
whole body enjoying a sense of listening that he for more,

1884
03:08:28.840 --> 03:09:22.799
he enjoy the space, this space of peace and safety,

1885
03:09:45.639 --> 03:11:44.399
so very relaxed, you do, letting go. Maybe we can

1886
03:11:44.719 --> 03:11:55.920
just focus on the different parts of your body, just

1887
03:11:56.440 --> 03:13:05.360
to notice you foolhead and your eyes. You two so loose,

1888
03:13:25.040 --> 03:14:58.159
noticing the sense of complete freedom, absolute freedom, breda peace

1889
03:14:58.559 --> 03:16:45.239
for energy, peace to breathe, so much easier loose. You

1890
03:16:45.479 --> 03:17:35.280
may have or may not have noticed your mind drifted, peaceful,

1891
03:17:49.399 --> 03:18:04.559
move any even more deeply in the direction of total

1892
03:18:09.200 --> 03:19:34.559
bliss for pace, bliss for pace, terrefting to to to pace,

1893
03:20:05.319 --> 03:21:00.799
so calm, letting go, peace, let me mind rexed, body

1894
03:21:18.159 --> 03:22:14.840
so relaxed, so relaxed, your body feels almost invisible, so

1895
03:22:15.559 --> 03:23:00.360
very relaxed. I'm peaceful, so peaceful, relax like a hm.

1896
03:23:35.239 --> 03:23:41.479
And you could start to notice that you are feeling

1897
03:23:41.879 --> 03:23:53.079
more relaxed, even though I've not purposely focused your mind

1898
03:23:54.040 --> 03:24:01.600
upon that sense of physical comfort that is growing within

1899
03:24:01.719 --> 03:24:10.840
you throughout your body, and your mind starts to slow down,

1900
03:24:15.799 --> 03:24:22.959
and that could be almost in recognition of I guess

1901
03:24:23.399 --> 03:24:35.879
my speech not being particularly fast, and things just generally

1902
03:24:37.600 --> 03:24:48.600
feel calmer. Just by listening to my voice, you give

1903
03:24:48.680 --> 03:24:55.559
yourself an opportunity to take a break from the day,

1904
03:24:57.719 --> 03:25:05.200
take a break from your life as it is, and

1905
03:25:05.360 --> 03:25:13.079
to give yourself a rest, giving yourself permission to take

1906
03:25:13.200 --> 03:25:18.760
some time off and to allow your body to relax

1907
03:25:20.479 --> 03:25:28.399
and allow your mind to slow down, which in turn

1908
03:25:31.000 --> 03:25:36.040
releases the tension and he stresses that you had in

1909
03:25:36.120 --> 03:25:45.959
your body. It's almost as if the parts of your

1910
03:25:46.000 --> 03:25:58.000
body just open up, allowing the negativity out and at

1911
03:25:58.040 --> 03:26:06.280
the same time replace in that negativity with positive heathing energy,

1912
03:26:09.399 --> 03:26:14.000
which then fills your body up and your mind to

1913
03:26:15.639 --> 03:26:34.040
also starts to appreciate those feelings of increasing confidence, an

1914
03:26:34.120 --> 03:26:51.200
almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an energy that spreads through

1915
03:26:51.280 --> 03:27:02.639
your body like a wave of comfort, and all this comes,

1916
03:27:02.840 --> 03:27:14.799
and just allowing yourself a few minutes, maybe half an hour,

1917
03:27:15.319 --> 03:27:20.040
however long you want it to be, to just rest

1918
03:27:25.440 --> 03:27:34.239
and allow your mind and your body to almost reset

1919
03:27:34.959 --> 03:27:53.600
itself to the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which

1920
03:27:53.680 --> 03:28:06.840
allows more room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to

1921
03:28:07.159 --> 03:28:16.559
move around your body and into your mind, almost as

1922
03:28:16.600 --> 03:28:25.719
if your mind and your body are sinking together, almost

1923
03:28:26.079 --> 03:28:40.079
mirroring each other with that growing positivity and calmness. And

1924
03:28:40.200 --> 03:28:47.479
it feels nice. It really does feel nice to know

1925
03:28:47.760 --> 03:28:56.639
that you are the one that has allowed yourself to

1926
03:28:56.879 --> 03:29:10.879
feel more comfort and to experience more of this deep

1927
03:29:11.319 --> 03:29:27.360
relaxation spreading throughout your body. And as I focus on

1928
03:29:27.639 --> 03:29:33.360
each part of your body, you can notice that that

1929
03:29:33.719 --> 03:29:47.799
part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it.

1930
03:29:47.799 --> 03:29:59.799
It becomes even more calm and comfortable just by focus.

1931
03:30:00.040 --> 03:30:09.840
And as I move down your body, starting at your head,

1932
03:30:12.559 --> 03:30:19.239
the parts that you've already focused on will continue to

1933
03:30:19.440 --> 03:30:27.040
relax deeply, and those parts that we've not yet focused

1934
03:30:27.120 --> 03:30:40.440
on or just automatically release any remaining tension in anticipation

1935
03:30:40.879 --> 03:30:53.920
of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm going

1936
03:30:53.959 --> 03:31:00.879
to start by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware

1937
03:31:01.200 --> 03:31:09.799
of the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds

1938
03:31:11.559 --> 03:31:16.440
like mister Herbert the Pigeon can just allow you to

1939
03:31:16.600 --> 03:31:23.840
feel even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment.

1940
03:31:27.000 --> 03:31:32.319
This isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

1941
03:31:35.799 --> 03:31:41.840
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

1942
03:31:42.360 --> 03:31:52.840
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

1943
03:31:53.120 --> 03:32:00.879
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

1944
03:32:03.200 --> 03:32:07.680
only on my voice and that part of your body.

1945
03:32:12.879 --> 03:32:21.159
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

1946
03:32:23.639 --> 03:32:33.319
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

1947
03:32:33.360 --> 03:32:39.799
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

1948
03:32:40.079 --> 03:32:54.479
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

1949
03:32:54.959 --> 03:33:01.600
your tongue, your teeth, and your gums, the whole of

1950
03:33:01.760 --> 03:33:16.559
your mouth relaxing, calm and loose. As you focus now

1951
03:33:17.360 --> 03:33:24.239
on your jaw, not just the parts of your jaw

1952
03:33:24.399 --> 03:33:28.760
near your mouth and your chin, but all the way

1953
03:33:28.879 --> 03:33:35.239
up the size of your face to your ears, the

1954
03:33:35.520 --> 03:33:59.840
hole of your jaw, feeding more relaxed and calm. Focusing

1955
03:34:00.079 --> 03:34:08.360
in on your neck, the front of your neck and

1956
03:34:08.479 --> 03:34:21.479
your throat, relaxing and loose and calm, the side of

1957
03:34:21.600 --> 03:34:26.879
your neck, the right and left side of your neck

1958
03:34:29.840 --> 03:34:45.639
relax and loose and calm, And now the back of

1959
03:34:45.760 --> 03:34:58.600
your neck. Focusing on the back of your neck, letting

1960
03:34:58.799 --> 03:35:03.440
go of any tension that may have been there before,

1961
03:35:05.239 --> 03:35:19.360
and enjoying that sense of increasing comfort and release that

1962
03:35:19.600 --> 03:35:30.000
you can experience in the back of your neck. Moving

1963
03:35:30.239 --> 03:35:36.799
down your back and moving either side of your spine

1964
03:35:38.120 --> 03:35:42.799
right from the top of your back all the way

1965
03:35:43.040 --> 03:35:55.719
down to the bottom of your back, down to your

1966
03:35:55.799 --> 03:36:06.360
lower back. And as you move up and down your spine,

1967
03:36:08.479 --> 03:36:12.879
you can feel the muscles either side of your spine

1968
03:36:15.159 --> 03:36:29.719
relaxing even more. And as those muscles relax, that sense

1969
03:36:29.799 --> 03:36:40.280
of comfort starts to spread outwards from your spine into

1970
03:36:40.479 --> 03:36:47.120
both sides of your back, the top of your back,

1971
03:36:47.959 --> 03:36:54.200
the middle and your lower back. And as you scan

1972
03:36:55.920 --> 03:37:03.760
gently and slowly up and down your back, there's the

1973
03:37:03.879 --> 03:37:09.719
muscles in the top of your back relax and become looser.

1974
03:37:14.079 --> 03:37:20.079
The muscles in the middle of your back also seem

1975
03:37:20.200 --> 03:37:29.719
to just almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting,

1976
03:37:35.479 --> 03:37:41.479
and in your lower back there seems to be an

1977
03:37:41.520 --> 03:37:55.719
extra special feeling of comfort. The spreads into your hips,

1978
03:37:58.040 --> 03:38:05.840
so down your lower back to your hips, into the

1979
03:38:06.040 --> 03:38:14.799
area where your cosis are and into your buttocks, and

1980
03:38:14.879 --> 03:38:24.079
all those muscles that spread whom your lower back into

1981
03:38:24.159 --> 03:38:37.639
your hip area start to melt, start to really let go.

1982
03:38:44.200 --> 03:38:49.159
I don't even know where about. To focus on your shoulders.

1983
03:38:50.920 --> 03:38:57.920
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

1984
03:39:01.000 --> 03:39:16.600
continue to relax so calmly. And as you focus on

1985
03:39:16.760 --> 03:39:29.680
your shoulders, you may notice that they're already feeling really loose.

1986
03:39:34.479 --> 03:40:00.440
They're already feeding calm, and they're feeding those muscles. Then

1987
03:40:00.639 --> 03:40:13.040
move from your neck into your shoulders. Feel so soft

1988
03:40:16.319 --> 03:40:41.879
and gentle, so smooth and calm, and the feeding in

1989
03:40:42.000 --> 03:40:56.799
your shoulders seens to spread deep into your shoulders, that

1990
03:40:57.159 --> 03:41:06.000
sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply into your muscles,

1991
03:41:09.479 --> 03:41:22.360
but also relaxing the bones and moving all the way

1992
03:41:22.600 --> 03:41:31.319
to underneath your arms, relaxing that whole area between the

1993
03:41:31.479 --> 03:41:40.600
tops of your shoulders and underneath your arms. He Then

1994
03:41:45.959 --> 03:41:59.000
you feel so relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which

1995
03:41:59.239 --> 03:42:21.120
sends that's deep healing message into your arms, and you

1996
03:42:21.280 --> 03:42:26.520
may feel almost as if your arms are not even

1997
03:42:26.760 --> 03:42:50.399
there because they're so relaxed so deeply relaxed, so so calm,

1998
03:43:05.520 --> 03:43:27.399
so loose, not feeling, spreading all the way down your arms,

1999
03:43:30.120 --> 03:43:59.159
two elbows, including your elbows circumforts, spreads all away into

2000
03:43:59.559 --> 03:44:18.079
risks are forearments, and your wrists so heavy yet at

2001
03:44:18.280 --> 03:45:01.479
the same time so light and gentle. Focusing h now

2002
03:45:02.200 --> 03:45:39.840
on your hands, my hands, so peaceful in your hands.

2003
03:45:58.440 --> 03:46:17.399
This is sense hm, real peace. It just seems to

2004
03:46:21.399 --> 03:46:42.399
I feel so familiar when your hands relax deeply. M ees,

2005
03:47:00.120 --> 03:48:08.559
the thing is a thing is sads. You think your tips,

2006
03:48:37.159 --> 03:48:56.319
moving your attention to the front of your body, so comfortable,

2007
03:49:07.319 --> 03:50:35.040
move on your focus your legs, what muscles in your thighs,

2008
03:50:51.840 --> 03:51:29.280
your knees so relaxed, a carved muscles and just shames

2009
03:51:32.959 --> 03:53:54.879
copusy four feathing your feet so peaceful, so calm, so peaceful,

2010
03:54:02.000 --> 03:55:03.840
sircom so peaceful, sycom so peace for rain, peace fall,

2011
03:55:07.440 --> 03:55:22.879
so calm, allowing that deep relaxation to spread your chest,

2012
03:55:23.200 --> 03:55:54.479
in your stomach, so letting go of everything. So I'm

2013
03:55:54.520 --> 03:56:00.680
gonna start counting down now, from twenty down to one.

2014
03:56:06.600 --> 03:56:09.840
You can imagine in a way it's like just walking

2015
03:56:09.959 --> 03:56:15.799
down some steps and each step or twenty steps, and

2016
03:56:15.879 --> 03:56:26.280
each step represents a level of comfort. Each step represents

2017
03:56:28.879 --> 03:56:41.319
a deepening of that comfort, and the furvies you walk

2018
03:56:41.440 --> 03:56:47.120
down those steps, the deeper and more relaxed you feel.

2019
03:56:53.840 --> 03:59:28.559
So starting with number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen sixt

2020
04:00:44.239 --> 04:07:53.280
three four four two two well five four nine hey

2021
04:08:53.040 --> 04:14:23.399
seven four five four four two.

2022
04:15:16.200 --> 04:16:43.840
One.

2023
04:17:33.399 --> 04:17:50.399
And now as you focus on your eyes, we're gonna

2024
04:17:50.479 --> 04:18:01.920
count down from ten downs one. Focus sin just on

2025
04:18:02.079 --> 04:18:13.000
your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your

2026
04:18:13.120 --> 04:18:22.120
eye walls themselves, a whole area that makes up your eye.

2027
04:18:33.079 --> 04:18:38.280
And as we count down from ten down to one,

2028
04:18:40.879 --> 04:18:53.840
whilst focus in on your eyes, you'll become twice is

2029
04:18:54.040 --> 04:19:05.879
relaxed with each number counting down, and you may find

2030
04:19:10.040 --> 04:19:15.799
the all you want to do is just drift off

2031
04:19:16.159 --> 04:19:25.280
to sleep. And if that's what you want, then just

2032
04:19:25.440 --> 04:19:38.520
allow yourself to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes,

2033
04:19:40.639 --> 04:19:46.040
I'm going to begin counting down from ten down to

2034
04:19:46.239 --> 04:25:10.000
one right now, nine eight seven s five u four

2035
04:26:23.360 --> 04:29:14.319
three two one. So counting down from ten to one

2036
04:29:16.360 --> 04:29:40.639
ten nine eight seven six five four three two one.

2037
04:29:47.680 --> 04:29:50.559
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

2038
04:29:50.639 --> 04:29:54.559
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you

2039
04:29:54.920 --> 04:30:04.600
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a

2040
04:30:04.639 --> 04:30:08.159
little bit of pressure there. Like you'll count it down

2041
04:30:08.280 --> 04:30:11.200
from ten to one. Would you expect me to do? Man,

2042
04:30:12.159 --> 04:30:15.840
expect me to stick go with floppy just because you're

2043
04:30:15.920 --> 04:30:25.280
counting down. We could try it again, but this time

2044
04:30:25.399 --> 04:30:31.799
I go. It's lower this time, as you focus on

2045
04:30:32.680 --> 04:30:37.000
the whole of your body before we focus on your legs.

2046
04:30:39.440 --> 04:30:48.600
Just notice how your body does start to feel more

2047
04:30:49.040 --> 04:31:19.799
relaxed with every number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven,

2048
04:31:28.959 --> 04:32:43.639
six five four three mm two one, And just notice

2049
04:32:43.959 --> 04:32:55.920
how how you feel, generally, how your body feels. It's

2050
04:32:55.959 --> 04:33:04.040
not necessarily even about counting down from ten to one.

2051
04:33:07.000 --> 04:33:20.439
It's that space that you have, that space between being

2052
04:33:24.040 --> 04:33:35.599
active physically or mentally to just sitting or lying down,

2053
04:33:36.279 --> 04:33:41.040
just being there, not doing anything, not saying anything, or

2054
04:33:41.880 --> 04:33:48.159
needing to think about anything. So it opens up a space,

2055
04:33:49.159 --> 04:33:58.279
you know, a bit of a space, a gap. And

2056
04:33:58.400 --> 04:34:02.959
the more I camped down from ten to one, the

2057
04:34:03.040 --> 04:34:11.040
bigger that gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness,

2058
04:34:12.439 --> 04:34:28.119
of comfort, relaxation. It's a nice feeling, and it moves

2059
04:34:29.680 --> 04:34:39.599
those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away.

2060
04:34:46.360 --> 04:34:59.080
Allows you to just slow down. Someone to count again

2061
04:34:59.200 --> 04:35:05.400
from ten down to one, and notice that gap widening,

2062
04:35:07.599 --> 04:35:12.000
the gap, And as it widens, it's almost like the

2063
04:35:13.720 --> 04:35:31.279
stress and attention falls into the gap and gives you

2064
04:35:31.400 --> 04:36:26.880
that distance, that space. Now ten nine, eight, seven, six, five,

2065
04:36:38.000 --> 04:38:03.040
four three two one. How did your body feel? Can

2066
04:38:03.119 --> 04:38:19.159
you notice that the feeling calmer, the feeling more relaxed.

2067
04:38:41.639 --> 04:38:46.000
As we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

2068
04:39:02.000 --> 04:39:06.840
We're just going to start with focusing on your thighs.

2069
04:39:21.639 --> 04:39:25.959
Of course, it's not the most exciting thing to be doing,

2070
04:39:26.759 --> 04:39:33.119
because I'm sure like most of your body is not

2071
04:39:33.200 --> 04:39:45.360
a lot going on right now. Just focusing on the

2072
04:39:45.520 --> 04:39:51.560
whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the

2073
04:39:51.880 --> 04:39:58.520
sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs. You're

2074
04:39:58.599 --> 04:40:03.799
outer thighs and you're in the thighs basically the whole

2075
04:40:03.880 --> 04:40:11.360
of your thigh that leads into your hip and it

2076
04:40:11.520 --> 04:40:22.200
goes down to your knee joints. Now, this is a

2077
04:40:22.319 --> 04:40:30.720
big area. It's a very heavy area. It's very strong,

2078
04:40:31.959 --> 04:40:36.959
probably the strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs.

2079
04:40:47.119 --> 04:40:54.840
But I don't think we perhaps give enough attention to

2080
04:40:55.080 --> 04:41:08.799
our thighs. Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs

2081
04:41:09.040 --> 04:41:28.799
are to our lives, how much they actually do for

2082
04:41:28.959 --> 04:41:42.680
us all through our lives. And it may seem to

2083
04:41:42.799 --> 04:41:47.959
sound really weird, but I think that all of our

2084
04:41:48.040 --> 04:41:58.880
body parts, especially our thighs, need some TLC, a bit

2085
04:41:58.919 --> 04:42:11.799
of love shown, a bit of acknowledgement. I thank you

2086
04:42:14.959 --> 04:42:27.279
gratitude for what our thighs do for us. And I

2087
04:42:27.439 --> 04:42:33.119
know this may sound a bit strange. Maybe you think,

2088
04:42:33.520 --> 04:42:36.319
why am I surely how I should be out in

2089
04:42:36.439 --> 04:42:45.000
the garden hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard

2090
04:42:45.040 --> 04:42:48.159
to set a microphone up on a tree. That's why

2091
04:42:48.200 --> 04:42:50.880
I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging

2092
04:42:50.919 --> 04:42:54.400
a tree. Now I can't see the television from the tree.

2093
04:43:01.080 --> 04:43:05.360
If you move down to your knees gain such an

2094
04:43:05.439 --> 04:43:15.159
important part. And I think we don't necessarily I'll speak

2095
04:43:15.200 --> 04:43:22.520
for myself here, I don't necessarily appreciate all that my

2096
04:43:22.639 --> 04:43:27.880
knees do for me until I have a problem with

2097
04:43:28.000 --> 04:43:33.000
my knee. It's occasionally, if I ever maybe i'll bash

2098
04:43:33.080 --> 04:43:39.119
it or it's aching for some reason. It's then that

2099
04:43:39.240 --> 04:43:44.799
I realize how much it does. You know, the benefit

2100
04:43:44.880 --> 04:43:52.400
of being able to use my legs without any kind

2101
04:43:52.439 --> 04:44:00.159
of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's possibly not

2102
04:44:00.240 --> 04:44:11.919
appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort. But

2103
04:44:12.000 --> 04:44:16.680
as you focus on your knees, regardless of how your

2104
04:44:16.759 --> 04:44:25.639
knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude and

2105
04:44:25.959 --> 04:44:28.599
love to your knees for all that they do for you,

2106
04:44:39.080 --> 04:44:42.200
And you can still have that attention on your thighs

2107
04:44:42.880 --> 04:44:48.919
and maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed

2108
04:44:49.159 --> 04:45:06.360
that they are relaxing more deeply as you focus now

2109
04:45:08.240 --> 04:45:11.959
on the bottoms of your legs, your shins, and your

2110
04:45:12.040 --> 04:45:18.759
calf muscles, the bones between your knees and your feet,

2111
04:45:20.360 --> 04:45:32.360
incorporating of course, your ankles so important. Anyone that's had

2112
04:45:33.240 --> 04:45:38.720
even like the slightest sprain of an ankle knows how

2113
04:45:40.360 --> 04:45:50.680
how much we take our ankles for granted. And it's

2114
04:45:50.759 --> 04:45:52.840
kind of strange in a way when you think that.

2115
04:45:55.400 --> 04:45:59.360
You know, logically, our wrists are a lot thinner than

2116
04:45:59.479 --> 04:46:03.200
the rest of it their arms, which is okay, it

2117
04:46:03.279 --> 04:46:07.159
doesn't can't see any problem with that because we're just

2118
04:46:07.279 --> 04:46:14.959
picking stuff up. But our ankles so much thinner than

2119
04:46:15.000 --> 04:46:24.080
the rest of our legs, and from a physics perspective

2120
04:46:25.319 --> 04:46:29.520
or logical even it doesn't really make sense that all

2121
04:46:29.639 --> 04:46:38.360
this weight would ultimately be resting on your ankles then

2122
04:46:38.439 --> 04:46:51.599
leading to your feet, that thin area, thin bone. Yeah,

2123
04:46:51.680 --> 04:46:57.360
it does so much great work. Supports us, supports our

2124
04:46:57.479 --> 04:47:09.240
body for a lifetime, helps us to balance, It helps

2125
04:47:09.319 --> 04:47:21.880
you to get her around and be mobile. And there's

2126
04:47:21.919 --> 04:47:29.799
the calf muscles. Of course, when I was younger, I

2127
04:47:29.840 --> 04:47:33.159
couldn't see the point in calf muscles. Didn't seem to

2128
04:47:33.240 --> 04:47:39.159
do anything. Okay, if I walked around on tiptoes, then

2129
04:47:39.360 --> 04:47:43.080
my calf muscles get some work. But of course that's

2130
04:47:43.159 --> 04:47:47.159
not true. The calf muscles are being used whenever we

2131
04:47:47.639 --> 04:48:01.159
use our legs and your shins there to protect your

2132
04:48:01.240 --> 04:48:10.240
lower legs, shaped in a way, almost as a protector

2133
04:48:10.720 --> 04:48:25.439
for the bone, leading of course to your ankles and

2134
04:48:25.560 --> 04:48:32.520
your feet. But we're not going to focus on your feet.

2135
04:48:32.599 --> 04:48:36.959
We're just going to focus on the legs. I realize

2136
04:48:39.000 --> 04:48:42.919
that now that I've mentioned your feet, it probably focuses

2137
04:48:43.200 --> 04:48:46.240
on them anyway, for maybe I should focus on your

2138
04:48:46.279 --> 04:48:52.159
feet a little bit. You can have them in your

2139
04:48:52.200 --> 04:48:58.560
awareness the same as you have your thighs in your awareness.

2140
04:48:59.400 --> 04:49:03.279
Even though you haven't been focusing on your thighs for

2141
04:49:03.279 --> 04:49:14.279
a few minutes, we've been focusing on your ankles, there's

2142
04:49:14.319 --> 04:49:29.560
still that sensation of comfort in your thighs, and there's

2143
04:49:29.680 --> 04:49:38.880
that movement of energy because the thighs hold lots of

2144
04:49:38.919 --> 04:49:45.159
different sensations. Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw

2145
04:49:45.319 --> 04:49:57.319
muscles that we have in our thighs, but the skin

2146
04:49:59.279 --> 04:50:02.959
on the outside side of the thighs, as in the

2147
04:50:03.119 --> 04:50:08.680
outside of all of our body, can be very sensitive,

2148
04:50:12.599 --> 04:50:25.799
sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature, and inside your

2149
04:50:25.919 --> 04:50:33.360
thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's the blood, vessels,

2150
04:50:33.520 --> 04:50:39.319
the ar trees, all this stuff that's inside your thighs.

2151
04:50:43.599 --> 04:50:46.799
And I guess sometimes it'd be nice if you could

2152
04:50:46.840 --> 04:50:52.159
actually put your fingers inside your thighs and a message,

2153
04:50:54.560 --> 04:50:58.119
so you can message on the outside, of course, but

2154
04:50:58.200 --> 04:51:01.319
to be able to get deep into the muss and

2155
04:51:01.400 --> 04:51:06.520
to be able to just massage inside your thighs, message

2156
04:51:06.560 --> 04:51:14.599
in the bones of your leg, massage in all the

2157
04:51:14.799 --> 04:51:25.360
veins and just gently healing your thighs, and you could

2158
04:51:25.479 --> 04:51:32.400
move down message and inside your knees, just message in

2159
04:51:32.520 --> 04:51:39.840
those bones. But with healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy

2160
04:51:40.639 --> 04:51:50.360
deep into the joints of your knees. Of course, there's

2161
04:51:50.400 --> 04:51:54.279
the back of your your knee, you know, the inside

2162
04:51:54.479 --> 04:52:00.240
crease where your knee is. It's a really sense the

2163
04:52:00.360 --> 04:52:05.520
area very it feels very nice when you stroke it.

2164
04:52:06.919 --> 04:52:10.279
That might be because it's an area that's not really

2165
04:52:10.479 --> 04:52:16.959
touched very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that

2166
04:52:17.279 --> 04:52:24.000
crease in your legs. It's almost it's like a part

2167
04:52:24.159 --> 04:52:29.000
that has a sensitivity, which is a little bit different.

2168
04:52:36.840 --> 04:52:46.759
Of course, it's protected by your legs, so you can

2169
04:52:46.840 --> 04:52:52.159
imagine putting your fingers into that crease in your legs,

2170
04:52:57.599 --> 04:53:01.479
that fold in between your legs. You can just message

2171
04:53:01.560 --> 04:53:08.599
with your fingertips, letting your fingertips going inside, massage in

2172
04:53:08.759 --> 04:53:18.240
the muscle tissue. You can of course field the bones

2173
04:53:18.720 --> 04:53:30.639
of your knees, healing through your fingertips, and then as

2174
04:53:30.720 --> 04:53:36.360
you go down to your calf muscles. Now that's the

2175
04:53:36.439 --> 04:53:39.919
part I'd like to be able to really put my

2176
04:53:40.080 --> 04:53:48.880
fingertips deep inside my calf muscles, massage in every single

2177
04:53:49.919 --> 04:54:01.520
tissue of that muscle, healing every part, and then doing

2178
04:54:01.599 --> 04:54:09.080
the same for my shins, massage in and gently stroking

2179
04:54:09.240 --> 04:54:15.599
the bones, gently stroking them, healing in a loving way,

2180
04:54:16.919 --> 04:54:23.319
because they deserve to be treated as the precious bones

2181
04:54:23.360 --> 04:54:28.040
that they are, because our legs are so precious as

2182
04:54:28.080 --> 04:54:32.799
in all the other parts of our body, and more

2183
04:54:32.840 --> 04:54:46.959
precious of any juel on the planet. When you start

2184
04:54:47.119 --> 04:54:59.040
to think about your legs in this way, it can

2185
04:54:59.279 --> 04:55:08.520
change your or perspective. It might sound a bit a

2186
04:55:08.639 --> 04:55:13.919
bit silly to start with the idea of having love

2187
04:55:14.479 --> 04:55:23.840
for your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to

2188
04:55:23.880 --> 04:55:30.520
be able to put your hands in your thighs, massage

2189
04:55:31.360 --> 04:55:36.919
the muscles and the bones, and to get your fingers

2190
04:55:37.200 --> 04:55:46.959
deep in there, releasing all tension, just to show how

2191
04:55:47.119 --> 04:55:54.520
much you care about your legs, how much you care

2192
04:55:54.840 --> 04:56:02.880
for what your legs do for you regularly, your knees,

2193
04:56:03.119 --> 04:56:15.959
your calves, your ankles, the strength of your ankles, considering

2194
04:56:16.159 --> 04:56:20.639
how thin they are compared to the rest of your legs,

2195
04:56:20.840 --> 04:56:34.479
especially your thighs, yet they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely

2196
04:56:34.759 --> 04:56:46.560
amazing things. Your ankles are truly a gift because of

2197
04:56:46.639 --> 04:56:57.919
what they do for you, supporting all that weight, regardless

2198
04:56:57.959 --> 04:57:01.680
of how what weight you are are, even if you

2199
04:57:01.799 --> 04:57:06.799
only ate stone, there's still a lot of weight for

2200
04:57:06.919 --> 04:57:13.639
these little ankles. Now I'm a lot heavier than eat

2201
04:57:13.759 --> 04:57:24.360
stone double down. Yet my ankles support my body all

2202
04:57:24.439 --> 04:57:30.880
the time, although they do give off a sigh of

2203
04:57:31.000 --> 04:57:36.240
relief when I sit down as I have my whole

2204
04:57:36.319 --> 04:57:45.799
legs do my feet. My feet also go, my toes clap.

2205
04:57:47.000 --> 04:58:15.479
I'm so happy. Your legs really are amazing. And I

2206
04:58:15.639 --> 04:58:19.560
know that talking about talking about your legs is probably

2207
04:58:22.080 --> 04:58:26.720
possibly among the most most boring things you've ever heard

2208
04:58:26.799 --> 04:58:35.159
anyone say. Possibly they're boring or not. Everything I said

2209
04:58:35.319 --> 04:58:51.959
is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve not

2210
04:58:52.360 --> 04:59:10.520
just respect, they deserve to really acts deeply. They deserve

2211
04:59:10.799 --> 04:59:15.680
to take some time out of the day to just

2212
04:59:16.040 --> 04:59:52.240
let go completely. The legs really can relax. And because

2213
04:59:52.279 --> 04:59:56.240
the legs are so such a most you know, very

2214
04:59:56.279 --> 05:00:02.000
important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

2215
05:00:02.119 --> 05:00:09.319
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

2216
05:00:13.080 --> 05:00:23.919
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

2217
05:00:25.319 --> 05:00:32.439
My hips feel really loose, and also my lower back

2218
05:00:32.479 --> 05:00:39.080
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

2219
05:00:40.200 --> 05:00:43.240
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

2220
05:00:43.360 --> 05:00:48.599
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing,

2221
05:00:49.639 --> 05:00:52.279
it's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed so

2222
05:00:52.520 --> 05:00:58.439
much that there is a natural stretch as the tension

2223
05:00:59.319 --> 05:01:20.599
has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to count

2224
05:01:20.680 --> 05:01:28.520
down from ten down to one, and you can continue

2225
05:01:30.400 --> 05:01:56.919
to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine, eight, seven, six, five.

2226
05:02:01.279 --> 05:02:09.520
Four three two.

2227
05:02:13.840 --> 05:02:31.680
Why relax? So I'm just going to count down from

2228
05:02:31.799 --> 05:02:36.319
five down to one, And as a countdown, if you

2229
05:02:36.479 --> 05:02:43.360
just focus on the numbers, just the numbers counting down,

2230
05:02:44.400 --> 05:02:53.520
and notice how you feel in this moment as you

2231
05:02:53.680 --> 05:03:01.200
hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those numbers counting

2232
05:03:01.279 --> 05:03:11.439
down represents you feeling calmer, not just in your body,

2233
05:03:11.599 --> 05:03:19.959
but also relaxing your mind. And just notice how you feel.

2234
05:03:20.840 --> 05:03:26.759
There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing

2235
05:03:26.919 --> 05:04:09.919
to think about, starting with number five, four three two one.

2236
05:04:19.360 --> 05:04:31.240
And as you notice the gradual letting go of the

2237
05:04:31.400 --> 05:04:39.000
tension in your body, you may also begin to notice

2238
05:04:39.119 --> 05:04:46.360
and be aware of how your mind is starting to

2239
05:04:47.680 --> 05:04:54.279
slow down. This is just a natural thing that happens.

2240
05:04:56.880 --> 05:05:02.080
It's not really a special procedure. It's just natural because

2241
05:05:02.159 --> 05:05:08.080
as your body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax,

2242
05:05:09.680 --> 05:05:13.319
and the more your mind relaxes, the more your body relaxes.

2243
05:05:13.439 --> 05:05:23.959
It's just a continuous circle of relaxation. And there's that

2244
05:05:25.240 --> 05:05:33.080
calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even even

2245
05:05:33.119 --> 05:05:39.680
if there's background sounds either your side or mind, it's

2246
05:05:39.799 --> 05:05:45.720
still going to be quite calm. You know, you haven't

2247
05:05:45.720 --> 05:05:50.680
got the television on, there's no music in the background

2248
05:05:50.799 --> 05:05:53.439
unless you're listening to the recording. With music, of course,

2249
05:05:58.319 --> 05:06:00.479
you're very likely not going to be sitting in a

2250
05:06:00.599 --> 05:06:03.720
room with other people. Of course you might be, but

2251
05:06:05.000 --> 05:06:08.240
generally it's more ideal if you can do this on

2252
05:06:08.400 --> 05:06:19.680
your own, so no distractions, and when you stop thinking

2253
05:06:19.759 --> 05:06:36.959
about stuff, relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts

2254
05:06:37.000 --> 05:06:45.759
to grow, and without trying to build it up into

2255
05:06:45.880 --> 05:06:58.000
something fantastical or something magical, this is just a natural process,

2256
05:07:00.319 --> 05:07:11.000
something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost you know,

2257
05:07:11.159 --> 05:07:18.000
the sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put

2258
05:07:18.159 --> 05:07:22.040
no effort into it. It's not something that you can

2259
05:07:22.159 --> 05:07:33.759
really force. It's something that happens naturally. And part of

2260
05:07:34.200 --> 05:07:44.439
the process of this recording and others is simply two

2261
05:07:46.000 --> 05:07:56.360
allow you to take advantage of this space this time,

2262
05:07:59.720 --> 05:08:10.959
just let go, to just be here, to be in

2263
05:08:11.240 --> 05:08:26.639
tune with how you feel, yet with the intention of

2264
05:08:26.959 --> 05:08:38.040
wanting to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep,

2265
05:08:39.200 --> 05:08:44.360
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself

2266
05:08:46.159 --> 05:09:01.200
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority

2267
05:09:02.439 --> 05:09:06.880
of the process of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep

2268
05:09:07.000 --> 05:09:13.759
part is the tiny bit at the end. The deeper

2269
05:09:15.080 --> 05:09:37.360
relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drifting. But

2270
05:09:37.479 --> 05:09:44.080
you can also if you choose stay focused on my

2271
05:09:44.279 --> 05:10:13.200
voice and really enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle

2272
05:10:17.799 --> 05:10:44.680
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

2273
05:10:44.959 --> 05:11:00.319
letting go completely this time. And when it came, count

2274
05:11:00.360 --> 05:11:10.439
from six down to one, and you can notice your

2275
05:11:10.639 --> 05:11:20.919
mind calming down more with each number that you hear

2276
05:11:21.279 --> 05:14:09.599
me say, naturally, feeling calm and slow and peaceful, six, five, four, three, two, one,

2277
05:14:30.720 --> 05:14:40.319
being aware of hell. Your mind to slowed right down,

2278
05:14:43.560 --> 05:15:06.959
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

2279
05:15:07.240 --> 05:15:17.200
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

2280
05:15:19.799 --> 05:15:29.319
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason, perhaps need

2281
05:15:29.439 --> 05:15:44.639
your attention. That's what you can do is send love

2282
05:15:44.880 --> 05:15:58.360
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love. Might a

2283
05:15:58.639 --> 05:16:04.279
petals from a flower, Just sprinkle it over them, petals

2284
05:16:04.360 --> 05:16:11.560
filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts

2285
05:16:11.759 --> 05:16:18.560
know that you're not abandon the number. You just need them.

2286
05:16:19.799 --> 05:16:30.840
You require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet

2287
05:16:31.240 --> 05:16:47.200
down for now, so as you focus on those remaining thoughts.

2288
05:16:48.439 --> 05:16:52.520
As we count down this time from seven down to one.

2289
05:16:54.080 --> 05:17:08.159
With each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,

2290
05:17:09.759 --> 05:17:21.599
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just

2291
05:17:23.040 --> 05:17:38.040
melt away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts

2292
05:17:38.200 --> 05:19:46.040
will become more and more relaxed. Starting with number seven, six, five, four, three, two.

2293
05:20:04.599 --> 05:20:04.840
One.

2294
05:20:21.520 --> 05:20:38.439
How need you now notice how relaxed you're feeling in

2295
05:20:38.639 --> 05:21:00.240
your body? We're going to focus on your hands. Is

2296
05:21:00.319 --> 05:21:06.520
the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed your

2297
05:21:06.639 --> 05:21:27.360
body and mind are. And there's you focus on your

2298
05:21:27.560 --> 05:21:37.759
hands and your fingers. There's nothing needed to be done.

2299
05:21:38.720 --> 05:21:43.799
There's no clenching of fists or tents in the fingers

2300
05:21:43.959 --> 05:21:57.520
or anything like that. It's just noticing and focusing on

2301
05:21:57.720 --> 05:22:25.880
your hands, noticing how they feel, because the more relaxed

2302
05:22:26.360 --> 05:22:36.040
your hands feel, the calmer your mind feels, and the

2303
05:22:36.360 --> 05:22:53.319
more comfort you feel throughout your body. And you may

2304
05:22:55.799 --> 05:23:38.279
have already noticed your mind is starting to dress like

2305
05:23:38.520 --> 05:23:53.639
since just on your hands and fingers, allowing them to

2306
05:23:56.119 --> 05:24:07.599
experience are real deepening of that relaxation in your hands

2307
05:24:07.720 --> 05:24:33.759
and fingers, more and more relaxed. With each number from

2308
05:24:33.959 --> 05:24:47.319
eight down to one. You can almost feel that healing

2309
05:24:48.759 --> 05:25:00.639
and relaxing energy spreading into your hands and fingers, becoming

2310
05:25:05.080 --> 05:25:21.959
year more relaxing with each number you hear, going down

2311
05:25:24.119 --> 05:25:42.319
eight down to one, drifting, drifting again, starting with.

2312
05:25:46.880 --> 05:28:22.400
Number eighth, seven, six, five, four, three.

2313
05:28:52.680 --> 05:29:50.880
Two, just being here now, nothing to think about, nothing

2314
05:29:51.000 --> 05:30:02.000
to do, nothing to say, and everything just feel calmer.

2315
05:30:06.560 --> 05:30:14.040
And this is your natural state of being. This is

2316
05:30:14.319 --> 05:30:20.959
how you just normally feel when you take away all

2317
05:30:21.159 --> 05:30:28.119
that other stuff that we add, you know, things like

2318
05:30:28.520 --> 05:30:44.200
stress and worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally

2319
05:30:44.439 --> 05:30:50.400
thinking about stuff. And you take that away, which is

2320
05:30:50.479 --> 05:30:59.680
what we do what we do now you're left with

2321
05:31:02.520 --> 05:31:11.040
a real sense of peacefulness which comes to you very

2322
05:31:11.159 --> 05:31:26.560
quickly because ultimately it's just a feeling a feeling of comfort,

2323
05:31:30.520 --> 05:31:33.959
almost as if you've gone inside yourself and you've found

2324
05:31:34.680 --> 05:31:48.680
a special place where everything is peaceful, a place where

2325
05:31:48.799 --> 05:31:56.319
you can feel relaxed and your natural sense of comfort,

2326
05:31:59.479 --> 05:32:06.919
a place where you can be you, where you can

2327
05:32:07.639 --> 05:32:14.279
accept yourself for who you are, the place where you're

2328
05:32:14.360 --> 05:32:24.759
not trying to please anybody else ever, a place where

2329
05:32:24.919 --> 05:32:34.319
you can actually not just love yourself, but in some

2330
05:32:34.479 --> 05:32:43.959
ways more importantly, you can like yourself appreciate who you are.

2331
05:32:52.799 --> 05:32:59.400
That sense of gratitude is in the air all around you.

2332
05:33:07.080 --> 05:33:14.880
That's also a place where you can actually feel the

2333
05:33:15.240 --> 05:33:30.520
healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into

2334
05:33:30.639 --> 05:33:40.599
your body, and the healing energy spreads through your veins,

2335
05:33:44.360 --> 05:33:51.240
traveling to each and every single part of your body,

2336
05:33:57.200 --> 05:34:01.759
and you start to realize that actually that healing energy,

2337
05:34:04.240 --> 05:34:10.639
it's not just entered into your brain, it's become part

2338
05:34:11.159 --> 05:34:22.439
of your brain, and that spinal fluid is now mixed

2339
05:34:22.560 --> 05:34:33.680
with healing energy, not just allowing you to feel so

2340
05:34:33.919 --> 05:34:45.799
much more relaxed and healthy in this moment, but also

2341
05:34:48.759 --> 05:34:56.240
you start to realize that actually, what's happening now with

2342
05:34:56.439 --> 05:35:06.080
that healing, relaxing energy spreading through your body, it's actually

2343
05:35:06.520 --> 05:35:16.680
changing your life. It's actually changing the way you're going

2344
05:35:16.799 --> 05:35:23.560
to feel not just now, but tomorrow and the next day.

2345
05:35:25.479 --> 05:35:32.959
As your health improves, not just your physical health, but

2346
05:35:33.119 --> 05:35:40.520
your mental health. Things that used to bother you in

2347
05:35:40.639 --> 05:35:48.200
the past, for some reason, no longer have the effect

2348
05:35:48.720 --> 05:35:57.639
that they used to because something has changed deep within you.

2349
05:36:02.720 --> 05:36:09.119
Maybe things that used to cause you to feel anger

2350
05:36:12.959 --> 05:36:23.080
no longer have that power to control you the way

2351
05:36:23.159 --> 05:36:31.159
they seem to be able to before. As you realize

2352
05:36:32.200 --> 05:36:44.599
that you're the one who decides what affects you, You're

2353
05:36:45.119 --> 05:36:55.000
the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm when

2354
05:36:55.919 --> 05:37:10.840
you choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing

2355
05:37:13.400 --> 05:37:22.000
continuing to grow and improve your life day by day,

2356
05:37:27.880 --> 05:37:36.119
including of course, your ability to relax so much easier.

2357
05:37:41.080 --> 05:37:50.680
And sleeping is the most natural thing in the world

2358
05:37:52.119 --> 05:38:00.439
to you, because falling asleep is something that you done

2359
05:38:03.479 --> 05:38:11.159
so many times in your life, and you know that

2360
05:38:11.360 --> 05:38:16.599
you were born, as we all were, with the ability

2361
05:38:18.240 --> 05:38:28.520
to fall asleep naturally. We were born with that ability

2362
05:38:31.479 --> 05:38:45.759
to just drift off into a deep, healing sleep. Even

2363
05:38:45.840 --> 05:38:50.560
when we're kids, sometimes we'll fall asleep when we don't

2364
05:38:50.599 --> 05:38:56.880
even want to try to us stay awake. Maybe it's

2365
05:38:56.959 --> 05:39:01.400
a birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday

2366
05:39:01.560 --> 05:39:04.000
or something we look forward to. We don't want to

2367
05:39:04.040 --> 05:39:09.159
go to sleep, But the more we want to stay awake,

2368
05:39:11.360 --> 05:39:18.400
the more we just start to drift. And the more

2369
05:39:19.080 --> 05:39:22.759
you fight drifting, the more you try to stop yourself

2370
05:39:22.840 --> 05:39:29.240
and drift in asleep, the deeper and stronger that drifting becomes.

2371
05:39:36.159 --> 05:39:41.479
Because we're born not just with the need to relax

2372
05:39:41.639 --> 05:39:50.000
deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but it's our birthright,

2373
05:39:53.400 --> 05:40:03.759
it's part of our DNA. And sometimes as we get

2374
05:40:03.840 --> 05:40:14.599
older in life, perhaps at times we have forgotten that

2375
05:40:14.880 --> 05:40:31.040
relaxing completely is not only a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's

2376
05:40:31.119 --> 05:40:48.919
also really easy. It's very very easy to let go,

2377
05:40:50.919 --> 05:41:00.159
because that's all it is. It is just deciding to

2378
05:41:00.319 --> 05:41:10.479
let go. And when you press the play button on

2379
05:41:10.720 --> 05:41:20.279
my recordings, you have given permission for my voice to

2380
05:41:20.400 --> 05:41:27.599
relax you. When you press that play button, you have

2381
05:41:27.759 --> 05:41:39.040
given me permission for my words to affect you in

2382
05:41:39.200 --> 05:41:55.959
a positive, only a positive way. Opening up your mind

2383
05:41:57.799 --> 05:42:18.520
too useful and healing suggestions that can have such an

2384
05:42:18.639 --> 05:42:30.880
amazing effect on how you feel right now as well

2385
05:42:33.680 --> 05:42:41.520
as those changes that continue long after the recording ends,

2386
05:42:43.279 --> 05:42:52.400
those changes within you that continue to flourish and grow,

2387
05:42:56.919 --> 05:43:10.639
transforming your life in a positive, beautiful way, allowing you

2388
05:43:11.240 --> 05:43:17.479
to move forward in your life in the direction that

2389
05:43:17.840 --> 05:43:34.959
you choose for yourself. And this feeling, this feeling that

2390
05:43:35.200 --> 05:43:51.319
you can experience a safety, comfort, calmness, just feels so nice.

2391
05:44:00.599 --> 05:44:13.360
It's such a healthy place to be, and that positivity

2392
05:44:14.680 --> 05:44:33.720
grows within you each and every day. Moving forward, you're

2393
05:44:33.799 --> 05:44:44.639
going to find that you're more relaxed physically and in

2394
05:44:44.759 --> 05:44:53.560
your mind is more relaxed. And it's not that you're

2395
05:44:53.759 --> 05:44:59.439
thinking slower, it's just that your mind will be less

2396
05:45:00.240 --> 05:45:11.799
clogged up with unnecessary negativity because from now on, your

2397
05:45:12.000 --> 05:45:21.720
mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're going to start

2398
05:45:22.000 --> 05:45:38.319
noticing when negativity arises, and you can just say stop, stop,

2399
05:45:41.200 --> 05:45:47.919
and that negativity will turn around and leave you alone.

2400
05:45:55.919 --> 05:46:15.240
Stop and that negativity would disappear. And as you notice

2401
05:46:15.560 --> 05:46:23.880
that you feel way more relaxed than you probably expected,

2402
05:46:30.040 --> 05:46:39.599
you can now congratulate yourself because you're the person that

2403
05:46:39.720 --> 05:46:45.840
has done this. You are the one that has opened

2404
05:46:46.080 --> 05:46:53.759
your mind up to the simple facts that you can

2405
05:46:54.240 --> 05:46:58.799
feel more relaxed in your body and in your mind.

2406
05:47:05.040 --> 05:47:10.959
You've opened your mind up to the birthright of being

2407
05:47:11.000 --> 05:47:27.840
able to just fall asleep easily when you choose. And

2408
05:47:28.000 --> 05:47:34.959
that's a nice feeling. Don't you think it feels nice?

2409
05:47:35.080 --> 05:47:44.400
Doesn't it? To feel calm? All that healing energy is

2410
05:47:44.520 --> 05:47:55.400
spreading through your body and your mind to spend time

2411
05:47:55.639 --> 05:48:06.439
in a special place where negativity can no longer enter.

2412
05:48:12.880 --> 05:48:22.080
Negativity is banned, it's barred, it's not allowed entry. Doesn't

2413
05:48:22.360 --> 05:48:25.799
it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to be here, It doesn't

2414
05:48:26.000 --> 05:48:44.680
belong here. Negativity has no place in your life, which

2415
05:48:44.840 --> 05:48:59.599
makes room for more comfort, more heathing, more relaxation, more peace.

2416
05:49:16.520 --> 05:49:28.319
It feels nice, doesn't it? Just the let go with everything.

2417
05:49:41.919 --> 05:49:46.360
I'm not gonna count down now from twenty down to one.

2418
05:49:49.799 --> 05:49:56.279
You can continue to relax. If you choose, you can

2419
05:49:59.439 --> 05:50:09.919
drift to sleep. With every number you hear me say,

2420
05:50:14.279 --> 05:50:21.599
you can feel twice as relaxed, or if you choose,

2421
05:50:21.799 --> 05:50:25.360
you can feel twice a sleeping.

2422
05:50:31.799 --> 05:50:32.000
Now.

2423
05:50:37.439 --> 05:52:46.279
Twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, two, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five.

2424
05:52:52.799 --> 05:52:53.080
Four.

2425
05:53:00.080 --> 05:53:31.479
Yeah, this is your time to just take a break,

2426
05:53:36.159 --> 05:53:47.200
your time to relax, to allow your mind to slow down,

2427
05:53:55.880 --> 05:54:09.919
to give yourself permission to take a break from everything.

2428
05:54:14.639 --> 05:54:19.159
And you, you're the only person that can make that decision.

2429
05:54:22.000 --> 05:54:24.720
You're the only person that can actually tell your mind

2430
05:54:29.560 --> 05:54:53.799
to just relax, to just take some time off so

2431
05:54:53.959 --> 05:54:58.799
that you can focus on your body, getting in touch

2432
05:54:59.119 --> 05:55:13.759
with how you feel physically. And in the process of

2433
05:55:16.599 --> 05:55:21.319
this body scan, where you focus on different parts of

2434
05:55:21.400 --> 05:55:32.200
your body, those parts that you focus on and observe,

2435
05:55:35.159 --> 05:55:43.520
even though you're not purposely requesting for those parts of

2436
05:55:43.599 --> 05:55:51.080
your body to relax, it's kind of expected. You expect

2437
05:55:52.479 --> 05:55:58.080
when you listen to my voice to feel more relaxed

2438
05:55:59.639 --> 05:56:10.560
naturally of me, because when you're listening to me, your

2439
05:56:10.599 --> 05:56:22.880
attention is focused on my words, and as my words

2440
05:56:23.799 --> 05:56:34.000
guide you to focus on those parts of your body,

2441
05:56:37.799 --> 05:56:59.880
your focus increases, which actually calms your mind. And when

2442
05:56:59.880 --> 05:57:19.319
your mind calms down, your body relaxes. And when your

2443
05:57:19.400 --> 05:57:43.200
body calms down, your mind relaxes. And even though we've

2444
05:57:43.360 --> 05:57:52.159
not really started to focus on your body, you can

2445
05:57:52.840 --> 05:58:08.200
already feel that healing energy spreading through your body, pushing

2446
05:58:08.439 --> 05:58:22.639
out stress and tension, healing all the parts of your body,

2447
05:58:24.599 --> 05:58:32.279
including your skin, your bones, your blood, all of your

2448
05:58:32.479 --> 05:58:38.200
organs inside your body, all of the muscles, all of

2449
05:58:38.279 --> 05:58:45.680
the fat, all of everything, every hair on your body

2450
05:58:47.919 --> 05:58:59.240
is filled with that healing energy. And when your brain

2451
05:59:03.880 --> 05:59:17.119
fills with that healing energy, the feeling of comfort and

2452
05:59:17.279 --> 05:59:43.400
relaxation increases deeply, increases in a way that your mind

2453
05:59:47.000 --> 06:00:00.520
starts to fill perhaps bit drowsy because it's not needed,

2454
06:00:03.880 --> 06:00:20.159
and it may start to drift if that's what's needed.

2455
06:00:23.319 --> 06:00:27.919
So if you're listening to this and what you need

2456
06:00:28.200 --> 06:00:34.000
is deep relaxation, that's what you get. If what you

2457
06:00:34.319 --> 06:00:42.319
need is to fall asleep naturally and easily as your

2458
06:00:42.479 --> 06:00:58.799
mind drifts, that's also what will happen. Because by pressing

2459
06:00:58.919 --> 06:01:03.680
that play button on the podcast and listening to me,

2460
06:01:04.919 --> 06:01:13.439
you give permission for your body and your mind. In fact,

2461
06:01:18.360 --> 06:01:22.639
you give the command to your body and your mind

2462
06:01:22.959 --> 06:01:35.319
to relax deeply and to drift off to sleep if

2463
06:01:35.599 --> 06:01:38.040
that's what you want.

2464
06:01:41.279 --> 06:01:41.680
Or need.

2465
06:01:49.400 --> 06:01:55.040
And as I focus on the different parts of your body,

2466
06:02:00.080 --> 06:02:08.840
you may start to just drift. And then you come

2467
06:02:08.959 --> 06:02:14.200
back again and you hear me talking, and I'm focusing

2468
06:02:14.360 --> 06:02:22.799
on a different part of your body, and you may

2469
06:02:24.880 --> 06:02:33.799
find yourself drifting. If you don't realize you're drifting until

2470
06:02:33.880 --> 06:02:40.360
you stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice.

2471
06:02:41.799 --> 06:02:47.680
Focusing on a different part of your body starts to

2472
06:02:47.880 --> 06:02:58.720
relax even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already

2473
06:03:01.040 --> 06:03:10.840
in the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the

2474
06:03:11.080 --> 06:03:20.759
longer you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that

2475
06:03:21.000 --> 06:03:31.159
drifting continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember

2476
06:03:33.240 --> 06:03:41.439
until you wake up in your own time, when you

2477
06:03:41.759 --> 06:03:50.119
experience the right amount of sleep for you, because when

2478
06:03:50.200 --> 06:03:54.840
you do, and if you do for the sleep, it's

2479
06:03:57.439 --> 06:04:22.759
extremely pleasant, so relaxing, so deep healing sleep. It feels

2480
06:04:22.919 --> 06:04:30.720
so nice to relaxing into your own body and mind

2481
06:04:34.560 --> 06:04:40.400
as you feel that healing energy is spreading through it,

2482
06:04:42.680 --> 06:05:05.479
relaxing us so deeply, relaxing so so deeply. We start

2483
06:05:05.680 --> 06:05:21.639
to focus on your eyes, moving down to your jaw,

2484
06:05:29.599 --> 06:06:11.319
down to your neck, your shoulders, palms, heads, things, your

2485
06:06:11.720 --> 06:06:52.119
chest and stomach, your back, your spine, youhps, you legs,

2486
06:06:59.840 --> 06:07:35.000
your feet, your toes, and then feeding, eating, spreading and

2487
06:07:35.319 --> 06:07:49.279
growing inside your body, feeling you up. Now let's focus

2488
06:07:49.400 --> 06:07:59.319
again on parts of your body, focusing this time on

2489
06:07:59.400 --> 06:08:12.319
your fuehead. It now on your mouth, your lips, your tongue,

2490
06:08:15.479 --> 06:08:31.599
the whole of your mouth. Focus then on your fingers.

2491
06:08:37.000 --> 06:08:41.560
Maybe you could move your fingers a little bits. You

2492
06:08:41.720 --> 06:08:57.319
can focus on each one individually, both hands. And even

2493
06:08:57.439 --> 06:09:02.880
though you focus on both of your hands now they

2494
06:09:02.959 --> 06:09:11.279
almost seemed to just melt into one. Where is your

2495
06:09:11.439 --> 06:09:19.080
right hand? Start in your left hand, and almost as

2496
06:09:19.119 --> 06:09:36.400
if just mixed together. Now focusing on your knees, just

2497
06:09:36.919 --> 06:09:59.360
noticing how your knees fell. Now, focusing on your elbows,

2498
06:10:02.119 --> 06:10:14.520
focusing on both of your elbows. Just observing the feeling

2499
06:10:17.240 --> 06:10:49.159
of your elbows. Now focusing observing the back of your neck,

2500
06:10:59.159 --> 06:11:40.159
feeling energy on the back of your neck, absurd your ankles,

2501
06:11:49.599 --> 06:12:59.040
being aware his goals, sensations in your ankles. What you so?

2502
06:13:01.639 --> 06:13:18.080
Now you too on both of your thinks, being aware

2503
06:13:19.919 --> 06:14:13.319
how you TOAs Yeah right now notice thin hiw You

2504
06:14:13.959 --> 06:15:02.639
entire body fails, noticing your mind fails. Now letting go,

2505
06:15:11.439 --> 06:15:52.840
letting go, letting go everything, letting go, letting go, letting

2506
06:15:53.520 --> 06:16:20.119
go everything everything. I'm going to start now, and I

2507
06:16:20.159 --> 06:16:22.240
would like you just first of all, just to see

2508
06:16:22.319 --> 06:16:30.479
yourself lying down on that message table, lying on your front.

2509
06:16:31.759 --> 06:16:39.720
Your head is supported, your arms are supported, and you

2510
06:16:39.799 --> 06:16:46.439
feel comfortable and breathing. It's really easy, and you feel

2511
06:16:49.959 --> 06:16:52.959
you feel confident in how you look as well. So

2512
06:16:53.360 --> 06:16:57.520
there's none of that issue of body problems or shyness

2513
06:16:58.439 --> 06:17:06.560
because I'm a professional and this is a therapy session,

2514
06:17:07.400 --> 06:17:15.319
so none of that stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you.

2515
06:17:18.200 --> 06:17:23.919
This is about how you feel and how you can

2516
06:17:25.400 --> 06:17:31.040
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from

2517
06:17:32.439 --> 06:17:38.560
letting go and allowing my hands my fingers to relax

2518
06:17:38.680 --> 06:17:49.720
you by a messaget your body. So I want to

2519
06:17:49.759 --> 06:17:54.880
start off just by placing my hands on the back

2520
06:17:54.919 --> 06:17:59.720
of your head, just gently, just you can feel what

2521
06:17:59.880 --> 06:18:08.400
my hands feel like really on you. So you can

2522
06:18:08.479 --> 06:18:10.759
maybe feel the warmth of my hands on the back

2523
06:18:10.840 --> 06:18:16.400
of your head. With my hands to the side of

2524
06:18:16.479 --> 06:18:20.959
your head, not pressing, but just holding there very gently,

2525
06:18:23.919 --> 06:18:26.919
maybe over your ears, and a little bit on your face,

2526
06:18:28.319 --> 06:18:33.759
so you can feel my hands so you can become

2527
06:18:33.799 --> 06:18:46.799
accustomed to them. And now put my hands on the

2528
06:18:46.880 --> 06:18:51.560
back of your head again and gently let them slide

2529
06:18:51.639 --> 06:19:03.880
down onto the back of your neck. You can feel

2530
06:19:03.919 --> 06:19:13.919
my hands gently stroking the back of your neck to

2531
06:19:14.040 --> 06:19:20.520
start with, just so you can get used to the

2532
06:19:22.400 --> 06:19:25.959
feeling with my hands on your skin, get accustomed to

2533
06:19:29.959 --> 06:19:34.840
realize that you're safe and it's all good, it's all fine,

2534
06:19:41.240 --> 06:19:45.279
And I'm going to start gently messaging the muscles in

2535
06:19:45.400 --> 06:20:01.240
the back of your neck with both hands. Now, this

2536
06:20:01.360 --> 06:20:07.599
is a very trusting situation, really, because our necks are

2537
06:20:07.680 --> 06:20:12.840
so fragile and to have someone have their hands around

2538
06:20:12.919 --> 06:20:18.040
your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic for people,

2539
06:20:19.319 --> 06:20:23.759
which is why massages are quite good, because it allows

2540
06:20:23.840 --> 06:20:33.759
you to relax and to get in touch with trust,

2541
06:20:38.040 --> 06:20:49.919
to feel peaceful and calm. And there's a massage the

2542
06:20:50.240 --> 06:20:58.240
sides of your neck gently moving from the bottom of

2543
06:20:58.319 --> 06:21:02.000
your neck, it would be sort of near where your

2544
06:21:02.080 --> 06:21:07.759
shoulders start, I guess, all the way up to your jaw,

2545
06:21:09.560 --> 06:21:13.080
your ears, kind of area that side of your neck.

2546
06:21:15.840 --> 06:21:18.400
Of course, it's a lot longer than the front of

2547
06:21:18.479 --> 06:21:34.560
your neck. The message in the back of your neck,

2548
06:21:38.439 --> 06:21:47.240
especially that area where perhaps we hold tension, and as

2549
06:21:47.279 --> 06:21:51.959
that area's message, you can actually feel a sense of

2550
06:21:52.119 --> 06:22:00.159
release in the back of your neck and maybe you

2551
06:22:00.319 --> 06:22:05.599
can breathe it out as well. Notice how it feels.

2552
06:22:05.840 --> 06:22:19.040
Notice how you feel. Then moving down to that area

2553
06:22:19.599 --> 06:22:27.240
between your neck and your shoulders, that musty area. Starting

2554
06:22:27.319 --> 06:22:34.279
to message that area on both sides. I mean, this

2555
06:22:34.360 --> 06:22:36.799
would be the area that a lot of people would

2556
06:22:36.880 --> 06:22:39.599
message if they were going to give you like a

2557
06:22:39.720 --> 06:22:45.799
shoulder message. Even that's not technically the shoulders, but it's

2558
06:22:45.840 --> 06:22:50.000
all the muscles that lead to the shoulders from the

2559
06:22:50.159 --> 06:22:57.599
neck and again that can hold tension and stress. And

2560
06:22:57.759 --> 06:23:02.560
when massaged sometimes it's a nice deep message is useful,

2561
06:23:05.639 --> 06:23:21.040
and you decide how deep that message is and just

2562
06:23:21.240 --> 06:23:28.159
allow my knuckles just to dig in to get to

2563
06:23:28.319 --> 06:23:38.319
those muscles and to really relaxed all the time being

2564
06:23:38.599 --> 06:23:56.080
firm yet gentle with you and just stroking down the

2565
06:23:56.319 --> 06:24:04.840
area to act your shoulders, moving to the muscles of

2566
06:24:04.880 --> 06:24:16.040
your shoulders and maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders

2567
06:24:16.040 --> 06:24:19.400
a little bit of the table just to give you

2568
06:24:19.479 --> 06:24:29.880
a little bit of a stretch, but very gently. And

2569
06:24:30.000 --> 06:24:32.520
you've got the muscles at the front of your shoulders,

2570
06:24:33.279 --> 06:24:44.240
the sides and the back. Again, this is a part

2571
06:24:44.400 --> 06:24:49.799
that can really take quite a bit of pressure, quite

2572
06:24:49.799 --> 06:24:57.880
a bit of needing if if you wish to really

2573
06:24:59.680 --> 06:25:05.200
really the tension to really get into those muscles, and

2574
06:25:08.639 --> 06:25:11.959
you can let your fingers in there make you feel

2575
06:25:12.159 --> 06:25:18.880
really nice. Sometimes it's just being stroked gently or being

2576
06:25:19.560 --> 06:25:29.439
massaged quite strongly. It can all be beneficial to the

2577
06:25:29.560 --> 06:25:48.159
relaxation with the muscles in your shoulders. Now to move

2578
06:25:48.319 --> 06:25:57.639
down your arms, we do one arm at a time,

2579
06:25:58.599 --> 06:26:07.639
starting with your right eye. Well I do is I

2580
06:26:07.919 --> 06:26:12.080
just lift your arm up, just hold it to the

2581
06:26:12.240 --> 06:26:19.599
side of you that way still be attached, and I

2582
06:26:19.799 --> 06:26:34.400
just message the tops of your arms all the way

2583
06:26:34.479 --> 06:26:59.439
down to your forearms into your wrists, gently messaging that parts,

2584
06:27:01.959 --> 06:27:05.639
the softer part which is the under part of the arm,

2585
06:27:08.759 --> 06:27:12.439
which leads to the crease in your elbow. The inside

2586
06:27:13.880 --> 06:27:28.200
it's much more sensitive skin. Sometimes just having that stroked

2587
06:27:31.599 --> 06:27:48.439
feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving down to

2588
06:27:48.560 --> 06:28:00.880
your right hand, just holding your hand in both of

2589
06:28:01.000 --> 06:28:10.639
my hands, just pressing gently on the back of your

2590
06:28:10.799 --> 06:28:21.840
hand and stretching your fingers ever slightly at the same

2591
06:28:22.000 --> 06:28:37.279
time pressing down and massaging each finger, and then starting

2592
06:28:37.439 --> 06:28:47.880
to massage the palms of the hand. Just turning the

2593
06:28:48.119 --> 06:28:59.479
hand gently, stretching it gently, and actually having your hand held.

2594
06:29:00.400 --> 06:29:07.040
It can really be an emotional experience sometimes even if

2595
06:29:07.319 --> 06:29:12.159
it is a stranger, someone you don't know very well,

2596
06:29:13.200 --> 06:29:19.599
like a massage person or a therapist, maybe because it's

2597
06:29:19.759 --> 06:29:32.680
intimate and you can feel nice, you can feel safe.

2598
06:29:40.639 --> 06:29:43.799
As I put that right arm back down where it was,

2599
06:29:49.919 --> 06:29:56.400
did the same with your left arm, exactly the same.

2600
06:30:01.119 --> 06:30:06.159
Massage in the muscles your arm all the way down

2601
06:30:07.360 --> 06:30:19.680
to your rest, stroking the inside of your arm, just

2602
06:30:19.799 --> 06:30:33.360
being gentle or as firm as you require. And then

2603
06:30:33.520 --> 06:30:49.639
massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers gently, massage in

2604
06:30:49.919 --> 06:31:05.759
the palm of your left hand. H you feel so

2605
06:31:08.680 --> 06:31:33.919
so relaxing, so comforting, and I just rest your left

2606
06:31:34.159 --> 06:31:48.159
arm back down. Start to message your back, the biggest

2607
06:31:48.319 --> 06:31:59.720
part of your body, starting at the top, starting again

2608
06:32:00.000 --> 06:32:03.599
where we already been, the area at the top in

2609
06:32:03.680 --> 06:32:10.959
between his shoulders, near your neck. Going back the message

2610
06:32:11.000 --> 06:32:22.479
in that area again, but this time moving downwards, taking

2611
06:32:22.560 --> 06:32:30.759
a downward stroke to the middle of your back, working

2612
06:32:30.959 --> 06:32:38.680
from the outside inwards. It's a massage in the your back,

2613
06:32:38.799 --> 06:32:50.759
but the outsides of your back, the parts where your

2614
06:32:50.919 --> 06:33:04.040
arms would maybe rest against, almost the path that connects

2615
06:33:04.279 --> 06:33:21.439
your front to your back. Just messaging down firmly but gently,

2616
06:33:22.560 --> 06:33:30.799
as firm as you want, moving down and moving across

2617
06:33:30.840 --> 06:33:33.080
a little bit, and moving all the way down again.

2618
06:33:34.479 --> 06:33:47.200
Be very gentle yet firm as you choose. Eventually you

2619
06:33:47.400 --> 06:33:52.040
get to the spine. We can massage the muscles and

2620
06:33:52.360 --> 06:33:55.840
either side of your spine from the top of your

2621
06:33:55.959 --> 06:34:07.880
neck all the way down to your lower back. We

2622
06:34:07.959 --> 06:34:14.159
can do that a few times. Sometimes people would use

2623
06:34:17.040 --> 06:34:23.200
the knuckle or the two fingers and just go your

2624
06:34:23.319 --> 06:34:28.599
side of the spine almost just push down, go all

2625
06:34:28.639 --> 06:34:32.400
the way down to the bottom of the spine, each

2626
06:34:32.599 --> 06:34:43.159
time releasing tension and opening up the body, stretching your

2627
06:34:43.240 --> 06:34:50.040
body so that you feel more relaxed but at the

2628
06:34:50.159 --> 06:35:06.479
same time rejuvenated. And now I'm going to move to

2629
06:35:06.599 --> 06:35:15.159
one side, to your right side, and from the bottom

2630
06:35:15.200 --> 06:35:20.919
of your ribs to your pelvis, I'm going to massage

2631
06:35:22.000 --> 06:35:27.319
that area of your back. I'll stretch over the other

2632
06:35:27.479 --> 06:35:32.959
side and I'll pull the muscles gently and massage and

2633
06:35:33.159 --> 06:35:38.040
push from one end that side or way to my side.

2634
06:35:39.919 --> 06:35:42.959
It's in the middle of fact to where your spine is,

2635
06:35:44.360 --> 06:35:50.000
massaging that side of your spine the opposite side to

2636
06:35:50.040 --> 06:35:57.919
where I'm standing. It's almost likely kneading bread. There's that

2637
06:35:58.119 --> 06:36:05.000
big area which is firm yet lot's there to message.

2638
06:36:10.200 --> 06:36:14.479
Potentially one of the most important places to actually have

2639
06:36:15.040 --> 06:36:22.439
a message because you really feel it. You really feel

2640
06:36:22.680 --> 06:36:28.000
the release and the pleasure of having your lower back massaged.

2641
06:36:31.200 --> 06:36:36.840
It releases so much from your body that's not useful,

2642
06:36:40.080 --> 06:36:45.599
starting a healing process which will continue long after this

2643
06:36:45.840 --> 06:36:57.919
recording is over. The message in this part of your

2644
06:36:57.959 --> 06:37:03.360
body not only feels read good for you, it's actually

2645
06:37:03.479 --> 06:37:07.520
fun to do because it is, as I said, like

2646
06:37:07.720 --> 06:37:12.840
kneading bread, it's a part that you can really get

2647
06:37:13.040 --> 06:37:20.439
hold of and really massage deeply if that's your choice.

2648
06:37:28.319 --> 06:37:29.959
And then I'm going to move over to the other

2649
06:37:30.080 --> 06:37:36.240
side of your body and do the same with the

2650
06:37:36.319 --> 06:37:46.080
opposite part of your lawer back, kneading and messaging from

2651
06:37:46.159 --> 06:37:52.799
your sides all the way to the middle of your

2652
06:37:52.880 --> 06:38:07.279
back where your spine is pressing, needing, firm, and gentle

2653
06:38:07.439 --> 06:38:17.279
at the same time. It feels so releasing this mixture

2654
06:38:17.360 --> 06:38:32.720
of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness, relaxation or mixed together. Plus

2655
06:38:32.840 --> 06:38:37.240
there's that feeling from your stomach as it's been stretched.

2656
06:38:39.119 --> 06:38:42.279
Even though you're in your stomach now, you can feel

2657
06:38:42.319 --> 06:38:46.119
it being stretched because that whole area is connected to

2658
06:38:46.200 --> 06:38:57.560
your stomach. Now we're going to move or move further

2659
06:38:57.759 --> 06:39:02.439
up to your top of your body and I we

2660
06:39:02.599 --> 06:39:10.720
do the same this time, starting with your upper back.

2661
06:39:11.200 --> 06:39:16.400
Put my hands forward over and mass massage in that

2662
06:39:16.720 --> 06:39:23.400
area up to your spine, from the side of your

2663
06:39:23.439 --> 06:39:28.639
body up to your spine. So some of that massage area,

2664
06:39:29.360 --> 06:39:35.319
the muscle tissue or whatever fatty tissue even will be

2665
06:39:35.599 --> 06:39:41.000
possibly from your chest. There's all connected, chest and the

2666
06:39:41.200 --> 06:39:47.720
back connect together. I'm going to be massaging and just

2667
06:39:47.840 --> 06:39:54.599
pulling some of that skin from your side up and

2668
06:39:54.840 --> 06:40:03.520
massaging that area of your upper back all the way

2669
06:40:03.680 --> 06:40:10.159
to your spine. And then I'll move down a bit

2670
06:40:10.200 --> 06:40:13.279
and I'll continue with the middle of your back, doing

2671
06:40:13.400 --> 06:40:31.880
exactly the same thing as gentle, as deep as you choose. Now,

2672
06:40:32.000 --> 06:40:35.759
I'll move or the other side again and do the

2673
06:40:35.919 --> 06:40:40.080
exact same thing with the top of your back on

2674
06:40:40.200 --> 06:40:49.479
the other side, from pretty much underneath your arm area

2675
06:40:49.599 --> 06:41:04.799
really to your spine, and then continuing that all the

2676
06:41:04.880 --> 06:41:09.599
way down, including the lower your middle.

2677
06:41:09.360 --> 06:41:09.880
Of your back.

2678
06:41:23.560 --> 06:41:28.720
I'm gonna go to your thighs, the backs of your thighs,

2679
06:41:31.400 --> 06:41:38.799
and the sides of your thighs, starting with your right leg.

2680
06:41:41.119 --> 06:41:48.520
Massage in the back and the sides of your thighs

2681
06:41:50.959 --> 06:41:57.360
gently and firmly. There's a lot of muscles there. It's

2682
06:41:57.439 --> 06:42:00.680
an area that can be very tense at times and

2683
06:42:00.880 --> 06:42:04.240
maybe needs a little bit more pressure than the rest

2684
06:42:04.319 --> 06:42:12.479
of the body that's up to you. You can gently

2685
06:42:12.639 --> 06:42:19.880
stroke the back of your legs where you know, opposite

2686
06:42:19.959 --> 06:42:25.520
your knee joint or underneath your knee joint, very sensitive,

2687
06:42:25.759 --> 06:42:38.400
gentle area, and then working down to your calf muscles.

2688
06:42:41.319 --> 06:42:47.680
Massage in your calf muscles thoroughly and deeply, if you choose,

2689
06:42:51.159 --> 06:43:08.080
using both hands and fingers, digging deep to your ankles.

2690
06:43:10.360 --> 06:43:15.959
In the back of your back of your ankles, just

2691
06:43:16.279 --> 06:43:27.880
gently massage in that area, maybe lifting the leg and

2692
06:43:28.759 --> 06:43:51.880
stretching a little bit. Moving to the right foot, massage

2693
06:43:52.000 --> 06:44:01.159
in the bottom of your feet and the sides of

2694
06:44:01.240 --> 06:44:12.520
your feet gently but firm enough so they don't tickle,

2695
06:44:18.040 --> 06:44:23.520
and just allow the pleasure that you get from having

2696
06:44:23.599 --> 06:44:33.000
your feet message to just overtake you as I continue

2697
06:44:33.080 --> 06:44:39.000
to message your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the

2698
06:44:39.279 --> 06:44:47.959
sides your arches, your heel. You can put a lot

2699
06:44:48.000 --> 06:44:53.880
of pressure into your heel and it feels amazing, yet

2700
06:44:53.919 --> 06:45:02.000
the arches need to be a bit more gentle. Stretching

2701
06:45:02.159 --> 06:45:08.400
your toes gently and massage in the bottoms of your

2702
06:45:08.520 --> 06:45:24.720
toes with my fingers, each one individually. Moving over to

2703
06:45:24.880 --> 06:45:32.080
the left leg to do exactly the same thing. Start

2704
06:45:32.240 --> 06:45:38.479
in at the top of the thighs, work in the

2705
06:45:38.599 --> 06:45:43.840
back of the thighs and the sides, massaging deeply and

2706
06:45:44.040 --> 06:46:00.319
gently the whole area, working all the way down. And

2707
06:46:00.439 --> 06:46:06.200
this is an area that maybe you could like to

2708
06:46:06.279 --> 06:46:15.080
spend more time relaxing and messaging. So perhaps if you

2709
06:46:15.200 --> 06:46:20.520
wanted like a bigger future recording, want's spend more time

2710
06:46:20.639 --> 06:46:32.040
on one particular area. As you move down to your

2711
06:46:32.159 --> 06:46:46.000
calf muscles, Massage in your calf muscles firmly and gently,

2712
06:46:51.720 --> 06:47:00.240
moving down your aincord into your feet, massage y the

2713
06:47:00.639 --> 06:47:10.720
backs of your feet, the bottoms of your feet, stretching

2714
06:47:10.959 --> 06:47:17.360
your toes and message in each tone individually, and then

2715
06:47:17.680 --> 06:47:23.439
feeling of pleasure and release. The experience when your having

2716
06:47:24.240 --> 06:47:45.720
your feet massaged feels really good. Now should turn over

2717
06:47:45.919 --> 06:47:56.799
in your mind. Laying on your back, I'm just going

2718
06:47:56.880 --> 06:48:10.000
to start again for your neck area in your shoulders,

2719
06:48:14.000 --> 06:48:24.439
just to get back in touch with that area. And

2720
06:48:24.599 --> 06:48:36.200
as you move up, I can clean my hands, make

2721
06:48:36.279 --> 06:48:42.080
them more fresh, because now I'm gonna message your face gently,

2722
06:48:46.479 --> 06:48:56.560
starting off with your forehead your eyes are closed, and

2723
06:48:57.680 --> 06:49:03.520
I can just stretch your eyes a little bit, pushing

2724
06:49:03.639 --> 06:49:14.159
up on your eyebrows and just massaging around your scalp,

2725
06:49:19.880 --> 06:49:29.360
massaging down your cheeks, around your ears, into your jaw,

2726
06:49:30.520 --> 06:49:53.000
gently the sides of your neck chin m hmm, and

2727
06:49:53.240 --> 06:50:04.919
just moving down from your neck down your chest, starting

2728
06:50:05.159 --> 06:50:12.479
by message in the very top of your chest where

2729
06:50:12.520 --> 06:50:26.040
the collar bone is, either side of the collarbone, and

2730
06:50:26.119 --> 06:50:38.759
then just massage in the hole of the chest, moving

2731
06:50:38.840 --> 06:50:52.439
the chest around, because it's quite a large area. You

2732
06:50:52.520 --> 06:51:00.279
can move from one side to the next, moving my

2733
06:51:00.479 --> 06:51:11.200
hands underneath pretty much where your arms are stretching up,

2734
06:51:13.400 --> 06:51:16.439
stretching some of the muscles of your back in the process,

2735
06:51:21.720 --> 06:51:30.360
moving up over your chest, and they're moving down again,

2736
06:51:42.959 --> 06:51:47.799
and then allowing my hands they just message gently and

2737
06:51:48.080 --> 06:51:54.799
slide down towards your stomach, starting in the middle of

2738
06:51:54.919 --> 06:52:04.479
your chest, and then gradually my hands moving apart and

2739
06:52:04.799 --> 06:52:14.759
massaging and sliding at the same time, moving down to

2740
06:52:14.959 --> 06:52:30.639
just below your rib cage, moving down and massaging up again,

2741
06:52:33.479 --> 06:52:41.319
giving your chest all the attention that it needs to

2742
06:52:41.520 --> 06:52:53.759
feel completely relaxed. Remembering that I'm also going to be

2743
06:52:53.880 --> 06:52:59.840
focusing on your sides as well. An area that really

2744
06:53:00.080 --> 06:53:06.759
it doesn't get much attention. It feels really good when

2745
06:53:06.840 --> 06:53:16.080
it's massaged, just stroking my hands down the sides of

2746
06:53:16.159 --> 06:53:23.119
your body, just below your arms, all the way down

2747
06:53:23.200 --> 06:53:38.200
to your hips. Now moving to your stomach area, I'm

2748
06:53:38.200 --> 06:53:41.680
going to stand one side of you like I did

2749
06:53:41.759 --> 06:53:46.119
when I did your lower back. I'm gonna do a

2750
06:53:46.319 --> 06:53:52.119
similar process of just stretching the muscles from your side,

2751
06:53:55.639 --> 06:54:05.159
gently massaging from one side to the next.

2752
06:54:07.240 --> 06:54:07.680
Move in.

2753
06:54:10.240 --> 06:54:14.439
A whole area from below your ribs all the way

2754
06:54:14.560 --> 06:54:25.400
down to below your belly button, and then move around

2755
06:54:25.479 --> 06:54:35.360
to the other side of you and repeat that process

2756
06:54:35.680 --> 06:54:48.759
of relaxing, deeply, calmly. You feel loose, you feel free.

2757
06:54:51.159 --> 06:54:55.840
And it's something about having your stomach message that's different

2758
06:54:55.919 --> 06:55:02.720
from any other part because we do have a tendency

2759
06:55:03.360 --> 06:55:07.200
of holding a different kind of stress in our stomach

2760
06:55:08.639 --> 06:55:16.479
that we may not be aware of. As I now

2761
06:55:16.680 --> 06:55:24.880
message your stomach in front of your stomach, making circles

2762
06:55:26.400 --> 06:55:35.560
around your belly button, and then going the other way around,

2763
06:55:42.119 --> 06:55:47.880
there's a gentleness and a freedom that comes from feeling

2764
06:55:48.520 --> 06:55:58.799
how you're feeling. As I now move down the tops

2765
06:55:58.880 --> 06:56:05.799
of your thighs muscles, massaging them and I can do

2766
06:56:06.000 --> 06:56:15.319
this two legs at the same time, pressing down, massaging

2767
06:56:15.799 --> 06:56:21.360
deeply those muscles in your thighs, at front of your thighs,

2768
06:56:26.840 --> 06:56:32.360
and moving down to your knees, gently massaging your knees,

2769
06:56:37.639 --> 06:56:43.720
sliding down your shins, putting pressure on either side of

2770
06:56:43.799 --> 06:56:56.880
your shin gently, softly but firmly, moving down to your ankles.

2771
06:57:01.799 --> 06:57:11.080
Stroke in the tops of your feet, and then with

2772
06:57:11.240 --> 06:57:18.040
each foot in each hand, just gently messaging the whole

2773
06:57:18.159 --> 06:57:27.080
of the foot, the top, the bottom, your heel, your ankle,

2774
06:57:27.959 --> 06:57:39.720
your toes, messaging every part of your feet. Feels so

2775
06:57:40.000 --> 06:57:55.159
good to select. Go and enjoy the process. Enjoy feeling

2776
06:57:57.720 --> 06:58:10.159
so deeply real. Next, so much comfort and so many

2777
06:58:10.400 --> 06:58:26.959
feelings become just from touching your skin. And you can

2778
06:58:27.200 --> 06:58:37.560
just lie there for as long as you choose, enjoying

2779
06:58:37.799 --> 06:58:48.799
the feeling of deep comfort and being massaged by me.

2780
06:58:56.000 --> 06:59:17.959
Enjoy the deeply right, And all we're gonna do is

2781
06:59:21.560 --> 06:59:38.080
blow out some candles. In your mind, there are going

2782
06:59:38.159 --> 06:59:48.520
to be a hundred candles, and you're going to blow

2783
06:59:48.680 --> 06:59:59.080
each one out individually, one by one, starting at one hundred.

2784
07:00:00.200 --> 07:00:07.520
As I count down all the way down to one,

2785
07:00:12.040 --> 07:00:20.959
and each time I say a number. You can imagine

2786
07:00:21.000 --> 07:00:27.439
that candle in front of you, and I'd like you

2787
07:00:27.560 --> 07:00:46.840
to actually physically gently blow that candle out, just so

2788
07:00:46.919 --> 07:00:56.200
it's not big blows, just a gentle, and that candle

2789
07:00:57.680 --> 07:01:07.000
will extinguish. And then I'll say the next number, so

2790
07:01:07.040 --> 07:01:16.240
we move down and you can just blow that one

2791
07:01:16.319 --> 07:01:26.040
out as well. And as we move down the numbers,

2792
07:01:30.599 --> 07:01:39.279
you'll find yourself feeling more and more relaxed. If you

2793
07:01:39.439 --> 07:01:48.560
need to sleep, you'll also find yourself becoming incredibly tired

2794
07:01:49.799 --> 07:02:01.119
and sleepy. In fact, you may struggle to blow out

2795
07:02:01.279 --> 07:02:18.200
all one hundred of these candles as you feel more

2796
07:02:18.319 --> 07:02:46.000
and more deeply relaxed, more and more deeply tired, And

2797
07:02:46.439 --> 07:02:56.119
the further you go down, the more your mind starts

2798
07:02:56.599 --> 07:03:08.119
to drift. You may find that you stop listening to

2799
07:03:08.319 --> 07:03:20.799
me after a while. And even though there may be

2800
07:03:21.759 --> 07:03:29.759
background sounds where you are, you'll be aware of those

2801
07:03:29.919 --> 07:03:48.799
sounds at the moment, be may start to just not

2802
07:03:49.040 --> 07:04:08.520
even notice them at all because they're unimportant. Where I am,

2803
07:04:11.159 --> 07:04:15.959
I've got the sounds of the birds, there's horrors, the

2804
07:04:16.080 --> 07:04:23.959
pigeon it likes to say hello sometimes, and there's the

2805
07:04:24.040 --> 07:04:34.599
odd plane that goes by, maybe traffic and trains in

2806
07:04:34.720 --> 07:04:47.000
the distance, but none of that scene is important whatsoever.

2807
07:04:51.720 --> 07:05:01.159
All candles you blow out, the less important anything is.

2808
07:05:06.080 --> 07:05:15.279
More candles you blow out, the further you seem to

2809
07:05:17.240 --> 07:05:37.479
move away from sounds, from general date days, stuff seems

2810
07:05:37.720 --> 07:05:51.840
to just move away on its own. You feel more

2811
07:05:54.400 --> 07:06:01.000
calmer with every can you blow.

2812
07:06:00.880 --> 07:06:18.959
Out, hiding.

2813
07:06:15.279 --> 07:06:28.319
The next number, do you hear me say? And then

2814
07:06:28.439 --> 07:06:46.080
you blow that candle out to h So easy, so simple.

2815
07:06:55.639 --> 07:07:09.639
We're gonna start by introducing the first candle, which is

2816
07:07:09.720 --> 07:07:28.599

2817
07:07:29.000 --> 07:07:48.520
candle out, you'll find immediately a slight change in how

2818
07:07:48.639 --> 07:07:59.880
you feel, as well as a real sense of positivity

2819
07:08:00.919 --> 07:08:34.599
growing within you, relaxation and sleepiness expanding. Starting with one

2851
08:03:55.000 --> 08:06:13.639
Hey seven two or let go of all of those thoughts, worries,

2852
08:06:13.959 --> 08:06:20.080
concerns about the past, thoughts about the future, and even

2853
08:06:21.560 --> 08:06:25.919
things you've been thinking about today. Just let it all

2854
08:06:25.959 --> 08:06:32.200
go because none of it is useful in this moment.

2855
08:06:37.119 --> 08:06:38.880
This is your.

2856
08:06:39.240 --> 08:06:58.119
Opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed, allowing yourself to

2857
08:06:59.080 --> 08:07:08.560
get in touch with that natural sense of peace that

2858
08:07:08.680 --> 08:07:15.360
we all have within us. It's available for everyone. It

2859
08:07:15.599 --> 08:07:20.639
just sometimes takes a little bit of effort to set

2860
08:07:20.799 --> 08:07:26.599
up the right time and place in order for you

2861
08:07:26.919 --> 08:07:35.919
to just let go. Because when you do decide to

2862
08:07:36.080 --> 08:07:41.360
let go and relax, that's what your body starts to

2863
08:07:41.439 --> 08:07:51.840
do because you've chosen, You've chosen to just allow your

2864
08:07:51.919 --> 08:07:57.520
body to unwind and your mind starts to slow down.

2865
08:08:00.880 --> 08:08:05.279
And it's a nice feeling. It's a nice feeling at

2866
08:08:05.319 --> 08:08:11.240
the beginning just to know that you have chosen to

2867
08:08:11.400 --> 08:08:20.439
decide to relax deeply, and because you've made that decision,

2868
08:08:22.240 --> 08:08:29.279
your body will just follow suit. Because sometimes all the

2869
08:08:29.439 --> 08:08:34.159
muscles in your body need is just permission from you

2870
08:08:35.240 --> 08:08:43.720
to relax, because so often we're busy, we're going from

2871
08:08:43.799 --> 08:08:47.759
here to there, we're walking around, and we're doing stuff,

2872
08:08:50.080 --> 08:08:56.439
and the body doesn't have any time or space to

2873
08:08:56.639 --> 08:09:03.599
really relax deeply. So it kind of waits for you

2874
08:09:03.919 --> 08:09:13.080
to lead the way, waits for your permission. And when

2875
08:09:13.119 --> 08:09:19.840
you do give your permission and you give to say so,

2876
08:09:20.119 --> 08:09:27.880
we may say, okay, it's time for your body to

2877
08:09:28.080 --> 08:09:36.799
let go completely and relax totally, your body just follows.

2878
08:09:39.799 --> 08:09:45.200
It's like a breath of relief. Ah good, I can

2879
08:09:45.319 --> 08:09:52.319
now relax. That feeling at the end of a day,

2880
08:09:52.400 --> 08:09:56.119
of a very physical day that you may experience in

2881
08:09:56.240 --> 08:09:59.759
the past. But you get home and you just sit

2882
08:09:59.840 --> 08:10:03.880
dow down on a chair, maybe you kick your shoes off,

2883
08:10:03.959 --> 08:10:09.759
and our arm feels so nice knowing that you don't

2884
08:10:10.479 --> 08:10:13.799
have to get up again for a little while at

2885
08:10:13.919 --> 08:10:17.599
least if you choose, you can just sit there for

2886
08:10:17.720 --> 08:10:30.439
maybe an hour to it feels blissful. And just by

2887
08:10:30.680 --> 08:10:35.720
sitting down like that, your body knows that it's time

2888
08:10:35.840 --> 08:10:41.159
to relax. Your body has been given permission from you

2889
08:10:43.360 --> 08:10:53.680
because it's a mindset in your mind you're prepared to

2890
08:10:53.880 --> 08:11:02.959
let go of everything and just cool completely, allow all

2891
08:11:03.400 --> 08:11:12.200
the stress of your body to evaporate. Any tensions can

2892
08:11:12.479 --> 08:11:31.319
just gradually vanish. It's almost like magic, really, because that

2893
08:11:31.880 --> 08:11:38.799
sense of relaxation in your body, it's a very natural state.

2894
08:11:40.680 --> 08:11:45.279
It's not something unusual. It may feel unusual when you

2895
08:11:45.439 --> 08:11:48.720
first start to relax, if you if you haven't really

2896
08:11:50.159 --> 08:11:54.040
spent a lot of time focusing and giving yourself this

2897
08:11:54.240 --> 08:12:00.360
space to let go completely and relax, they see molmost alien,

2898
08:12:02.200 --> 08:12:08.119
but it isn't. It's actually the most natural thing in

2899
08:12:08.200 --> 08:12:08.919
the world.

2900
08:12:10.200 --> 08:12:10.720
To let go.

2901
08:12:11.080 --> 08:12:20.720
Completely, to relax totally, the most natural thing in the

2902
08:12:20.840 --> 08:12:33.840
world to allow yourself to feel really calm in your mind.

2903
08:12:36.439 --> 08:12:44.119
And it is almost like a literal unwinding. It's like

2904
08:12:44.279 --> 08:12:51.840
you press a button and all the tension just releases.

2905
08:12:53.360 --> 08:12:57.200
It's like a wheel, like a cog, like the inside

2906
08:12:57.200 --> 08:13:00.639
of the clock just unwinding. And he's so much I

2907
08:13:01.000 --> 08:13:05.919
could see that the little wind up knob that's used

2908
08:13:06.799 --> 08:13:10.840
just going the opposite way that you choose to wind

2909
08:13:10.919 --> 08:13:19.400
it up, and the energy that premetic stress for energy

2910
08:13:20.959 --> 08:13:31.240
gradually winding down, losing its power, losing its strength. As

2911
08:13:31.279 --> 08:13:40.680
a sense of relaxation becomes stronger and deeper, and you

2912
08:13:40.880 --> 08:13:49.000
may find a the more relaxed you feel that your

2913
08:13:49.200 --> 08:13:59.319
mind starts to wonder, maybe seemed to stop listening to

2914
08:13:59.439 --> 08:14:05.319
me for a w Your mind goes somewhere else, and

2915
08:14:05.439 --> 08:14:11.279
then you realize you're listening to me again, and that

2916
08:14:11.479 --> 08:14:17.759
was just your mind to drift in to sleep, which

2917
08:14:17.880 --> 08:14:27.720
is quite natural, because sometimes when we're stressed and tense,

2918
08:14:29.040 --> 08:14:32.919
we're not mean I actually be aware of what we need,

2919
08:14:34.040 --> 08:14:42.479
what we physically are emotionally need in this moment. But

2920
08:14:42.639 --> 08:14:48.919
when you allow your body and mind to relax completely

2921
08:14:50.680 --> 08:14:57.880
and you let go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas,

2922
08:14:59.439 --> 08:15:03.880
or letting them go allow them to drop onto the floor.

2923
08:15:09.159 --> 08:15:15.200
When you start to get in touch with the feelings

2924
08:15:15.319 --> 08:15:27.639
of such relaxation, feels so nice to be in touch

2925
08:15:28.040 --> 08:15:34.319
with the calmness of the different body parts as they

2926
08:15:37.119 --> 08:15:50.560
become looser and looser. Even your breathing seems easier and

2927
08:15:50.759 --> 08:16:00.599
more natural, effortless, as that cool lands for your mouthful

2928
08:16:00.759 --> 08:16:13.080
those into your lungs, breathing in comforts and relaxation, and

2929
08:16:13.159 --> 08:16:21.599
then just breathing out any excess remain intentional stress from

2930
08:16:21.680 --> 08:16:29.959
every part of your body and mind. And as you

2931
08:16:30.080 --> 08:16:35.840
start to focus on your mind, maybe you notice that

2932
08:16:36.159 --> 08:16:44.799

08:17:44.360 --> 08:17:48.479

2948
08:19:30.840 --> 08:19:36.759

relax more deeply, relaxy more completely, letting go of any

2954
08:20:41.400 --> 08:20:51.599
remaining force or concerns, allow them just to drop onto

2955
08:20:51.720 --> 08:21:00.520
the floor, because they may not be necessary in this moments,

2956

Lett him go.

2978
08:26:44.479 --> 08:26:55.840
Every I'm gonna do a body scan, focusing on firstly

2979
08:26:56.040 --> 08:27:00.759
how you feel in your body, Not trying to change

2980
08:27:01.439 --> 08:27:07.080
how you feel, not trying to relax, not trying to

2981
08:27:07.279 --> 08:27:14.439
move away from any discomfort or stress or tension. Just accepting,

2982
08:27:15.959 --> 08:27:21.080
observing and accepting how you feel in the different parts

2983
08:27:21.159 --> 08:27:27.799
of your body, just allowing yourself to be exactly as

2984
08:27:27.880 --> 08:27:39.360
you are, to notice, to get in touch with how

2985
08:27:39.439 --> 08:27:46.360
you actually feel in this moment. So I'm going to

2986
08:27:46.520 --> 08:27:57.799
start off by focusing on your hands. Just be aware

2987
08:27:57.880 --> 08:28:06.319
of your hands. I'd like you to move your hands around,

2988
08:28:07.759 --> 08:28:10.240
just maybe move your fingers.

2989
08:28:09.919 --> 08:28:10.520
A little bit.

2990
08:28:12.959 --> 08:28:19.119
I've been enclosing your hands very gently, just so that

2991
08:28:19.400 --> 08:28:27.159
you can get in touch with how your hands and

2992
08:28:27.319 --> 08:28:48.319
your fingers fell, very very slow movements. Focusing now on

2993
08:28:48.520 --> 08:28:55.599
your feet, and if you can just do kind of

2994
08:28:55.599 --> 08:29:00.599
an equivalent with your feet. Is you just done with

2995
08:29:00.720 --> 08:29:09.360
your hands, maybe turning your ankles, moving your feet around,

2996
08:29:11.360 --> 08:29:20.919
moving your toes gently but only very gently and very

2997
08:29:21.279 --> 08:29:39.799
slowly noticing how your feet feel in this moment. Focusing

2998
08:29:40.000 --> 08:29:45.360
now and your eyes, and I'd like you to just

2999
08:29:47.040 --> 08:29:52.799
focus on your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close

3000
08:29:52.880 --> 08:29:57.119
your eyes a couple of times to really get in

3001
08:29:57.319 --> 08:30:01.400
touch with how you feel. You do close your eyes,

3002
08:30:03.560 --> 08:30:09.959
the muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them,

3003
08:30:12.799 --> 08:30:19.159
maybe raising your eyebrows. It stretches the tops of your eyes,

3004
08:30:22.400 --> 08:30:30.840
perhaps squinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes, just so

3005
08:30:30.959 --> 08:30:40.759
you can herely again touch of all aspects of how

3006
08:30:42.599 --> 08:30:59.599
your eyes feel right now. Now focus in on your thighs,

3007
08:31:02.000 --> 08:31:05.319
and you know it just starts you to gently tense

3008
08:31:05.560 --> 08:31:15.479
your thighs, just very very gently, just enough so you

3009
08:31:15.639 --> 08:31:29.279
can become more achuned to the physical sensation of your

3010
08:31:29.400 --> 08:31:34.799
upper legs, the front of your thighs, and the backs

3011
08:31:34.840 --> 08:31:49.200
of your thighs. Noticing and observing how your thighs feel.

3012
08:31:50.479 --> 08:32:03.439
Right now, moving your focus to the back of your neck,

3013
08:32:07.119 --> 08:32:13.759
just noticing the back of your neck the muscles, and

3014
08:32:13.919 --> 08:32:16.840
of course they lead to the side of your neck.

3015
08:32:18.360 --> 08:32:23.479
They also lead to the top of your back, which

3016
08:32:23.639 --> 08:32:29.000
leads to your shoulders. So as your focus on the

3017
08:32:29.159 --> 08:32:34.759
back of your neck, maybe you can move your head

3018
08:32:35.680 --> 08:32:43.439
gently upwards as if you're looking up, maybe moving your

3019
08:32:43.520 --> 08:32:51.319
head down as if you're looking down, perhaps moving your

3020
08:32:51.400 --> 08:33:01.360
head side to side, right to left, bony very slowly

3021
08:33:03.240 --> 08:33:11.720
and very gently. I'm not trying to force anything. It

3022
08:33:11.880 --> 08:33:21.360
has to be very very gentle, just so you can.

3023
08:33:22.919 --> 08:33:24.520
Be more.

3024
08:33:26.159 --> 08:33:38.040
In touch with the feelings, with the sensations physical sensations

3025
08:33:38.279 --> 08:33:54.000
of hound back of your neck feels. Right now, as

3026
08:33:54.119 --> 08:34:04.159
we now focus on the tops of your arms, the

3027
08:34:04.400 --> 08:34:09.159
parts where your biceps and your triceps are between your

3028
08:34:09.240 --> 08:34:17.840
elbow and your shoulders. To focus on those parts, the

3029
08:34:18.000 --> 08:34:24.959
tops of your arms, you may like to just tense them,

3030
08:34:25.880 --> 08:34:36.840
but very very gently and slowly, see you know, straining

3031
08:34:37.200 --> 08:34:43.159
or putting any pressure whatsoever.

3032
08:34:44.119 --> 08:34:45.040
On your arms.

3033
08:34:47.720 --> 08:34:50.200
It's just so that you can.

3034
08:34:52.639 --> 08:34:59.599
Gain more of a sense of how your upper arm

3035
08:35:01.400 --> 08:35:13.319
our feeling in this moment, and just noticing as you gently,

3036
08:35:15.479 --> 08:35:25.040
very gently and slowly tighten the muscles and then let go,

3037
08:35:29.360 --> 08:35:37.759
notice how the tops of your arms feel right now,

3038
08:35:45.959 --> 08:35:56.720
as a now focus on your stomach, the area the

3039
08:35:56.840 --> 08:36:02.799
lower aptomen area below you're going up to move it

3040
08:36:02.919 --> 08:36:09.639
all the way down to your hips, just a part

3041
08:36:09.680 --> 08:36:21.080
of your grind. Maybe you're able to tense these muscles

3042
08:36:22.959 --> 08:36:38.599
in the area very very gently and slowly. If that's

3043
08:36:38.919 --> 08:36:44.240
a difficult thing to do, maybe you can just move

3044
08:36:45.840 --> 08:36:53.880
your body, pushing your stomach up, maybe moving in orbit

3045
08:36:54.040 --> 08:37:00.560
to the side using your hips, just so you can

3046
08:37:00.919 --> 08:37:10.040
get more in tune with how your lower abdomen area

3047
08:37:13.880 --> 08:37:32.680
this feeling in this moment. Just noticing the physical sensations

3048
08:37:35.599 --> 08:37:54.240
or your lower abdomen as you move your attention to

3049
08:37:54.400 --> 08:38:05.639
your mouth to see your lips and inside your mouth,

3050
08:38:07.959 --> 08:38:25.159
the teeth, your guns, your tongue, just noticing how your

3051
08:38:25.319 --> 08:38:31.959
tongue in your mouth feels, and it may help by

3052
08:38:34.080 --> 08:38:41.319
moving your tongue around your mouth, moving it to your left,

3053
08:38:43.080 --> 08:38:48.759
maybe pressing it gently against the side of your mouth,

3054
08:38:50.360 --> 08:38:55.319
and then to the right, gently to the side of

3055
08:38:55.439 --> 08:39:03.360
your mouth, perhaps press up against the top of your mouth,

3056
08:39:04.520 --> 08:39:10.360
and then down gently against the bottom of your mouth.

3057
08:39:13.080 --> 08:39:29.279
All is very slowly and very very gentle, so that

3058
08:39:29.560 --> 08:39:44.959
you can be aware of how you feel in your

3059
08:39:45.080 --> 08:40:17.200
mouth area now and to focus on your wrists. I'm

3060
08:40:17.240 --> 08:40:26.000
gonna ask you to maybe just routine your wrists by

3061
08:40:26.119 --> 08:40:39.799
moving your hands in a circular motion very gently and slowly, just.

3062
08:40:41.560 --> 08:40:42.959
So you can.

3063
08:40:48.639 --> 08:41:07.680
Feel the sensations that you are currently experiencing in your wrists.

3064
08:41:11.759 --> 08:41:21.799
Perhaps luep in your hands up and down again very

3065
08:41:24.400 --> 08:41:47.479
very gently and slowly, very chancel and slur.

3066
08:42:00.639 --> 08:42:01.599
As you now.

3067
08:42:04.080 --> 08:42:18.279
Start to observe in a lower pack. The bad part

3068
08:42:18.560 --> 08:42:28.400
is just the buance your hips where your coxis are

3069
08:42:35.959 --> 08:42:42.080
a whole area which also really does include the signs

3070
08:42:43.000 --> 08:42:48.520
of your body because those muscles are very much connected.

3071
08:42:53.799 --> 08:43:00.799
There's those muscles also move into your hip aeria connecting

3072
08:43:01.080 --> 08:43:15.959
to your botics the sides of your hips, and if

3073
08:43:16.040 --> 08:43:26.240
you're physically able to do so, maybe in very gently

3074
08:43:28.439 --> 08:43:42.599
just newbody ever, is slightly, very slowly to side to side,

3075
08:43:46.279 --> 08:43:59.840
just enough h to gauge how you feel.

3076
08:44:01.919 --> 08:44:03.080
In your law back.

3077
08:44:10.720 --> 08:44:25.439
Perhaps you move your hips gently up and down, gently

3078
08:44:25.840 --> 08:44:27.840
and slowly.

3079
08:44:30.479 --> 08:44:31.360
In order to.

3080
08:44:35.959 --> 08:44:37.560
Be in touch.

3081
08:44:39.840 --> 08:45:04.040
With the physical sensations of your low back. As we now.

3082
08:45:08.919 --> 08:45:10.479
To your attention.

3083
08:45:13.919 --> 08:45:21.560
To your jaw, that area from your chin all the

3084
08:45:21.639 --> 08:45:25.479
way up to near where your ears are.

3085
08:45:28.639 --> 08:45:41.200
Oh, your jaw, you can just.

3086
08:45:43.279 --> 08:45:49.959
Yeah, it's okay to do so. Gently open your mouth,

3087
08:45:52.880 --> 08:46:04.479
not wide they stretching, just very gently and slowly opening

3088
08:46:04.599 --> 08:46:17.680
your mouth in closing your mouth very gently and slowly,

3089
08:46:27.279 --> 08:46:40.240
so you can be in touch with how your jaw

3090
08:46:40.520 --> 08:47:26.720
feels now, I'll just sit down. The chest area. They

3091
08:47:27.040 --> 08:47:34.240
need to do anything to move your chest it is

3092
08:47:34.360 --> 08:47:45.599
it moves every time you break. It moves very gently

3093
08:47:47.439 --> 08:48:04.560
and slowly automatically with each bread he tache. It is

3094
08:48:04.680 --> 08:48:06.360
your focus on.

3095
08:48:08.840 --> 08:48:11.040
How your chest.

3096
08:48:16.319 --> 08:48:55.880
Yes, when you pray, live in your focus to your

3097
08:48:56.400 --> 08:49:15.720
forms elbows. Maybe you're able to very gently and slowly

3098
08:49:18.119 --> 08:49:26.720
tense the muscles in your forms. And when you do that,

3099
08:49:27.200 --> 08:49:51.479
you can feel your elbows as well, very gently and slowly.

3100
08:49:59.240 --> 08:50:09.119
Gently absolutely.

3101
08:50:08.799 --> 08:50:47.159
Up saving your forearms and Jill bays, Yeah, focus the

3102
08:50:47.360 --> 08:50:59.200
rest of her back, the offer back in the middle,

3103
08:51:00.759 --> 08:51:17.479
the middle of your back again, this part of your body.

3104
08:51:20.400 --> 08:51:20.799
News.

3105
08:51:23.040 --> 08:51:32.720
Also, every time you pray, you may not notice that

3106
08:51:34.919 --> 08:51:47.040
usually makes you serve your upper back. In the middle

3107
08:51:47.119 --> 08:51:54.119
of your back. You can really feel.

3108
08:51:56.240 --> 08:51:56.279
That.

3109
08:51:58.000 --> 08:52:49.319
Gentle millen your focus.

3110
08:52:50.680 --> 08:52:51.319
Into the.

3111
08:52:52.919 --> 08:53:08.400
Area to butte pray those muscles and those bones in

3112
08:53:08.479 --> 08:53:45.200
your midsection. Just make the sense how there were hips, yo,

3113
08:53:48.439 --> 08:53:49.319
right now.

3114
08:53:56.639 --> 08:53:57.319
You can.

3115
08:53:59.520 --> 08:54:02.680
Yeh very gently.

3116
08:54:04.840 --> 08:54:06.560
Leave her hips.

3117
08:54:11.200 --> 08:54:59.520
Maybe side to side very gently and yeah, very gently, softly, slo.

3118
08:55:05.240 --> 08:55:22.000
Everything starts to slow down, including the thoughts in your

3119
08:55:22.119 --> 08:55:33.880
mind and your mind itself just starts to gradually. It

3120
08:55:33.959 --> 08:55:40.319
doesn't have to be instant, but just gradually starting to

3121
08:55:41.720 --> 08:55:50.520
It's almost like time is storing him. It's a slower

3122
08:55:50.680 --> 08:55:58.560
pace to maybe what you're used to in your day

3123
08:55:58.599 --> 08:56:20.599
to day life. It's a slower movement of energy, very

3124
08:56:25.040 --> 08:56:33.479
small movements which make up the larger movements. This is

3125
08:56:33.520 --> 08:56:41.279
always the case. Now, when you move your hand, it

3126
08:56:41.400 --> 08:56:44.159
might seem like it's one movement, but it's lots of

3127
08:56:44.959 --> 08:56:52.360
minute different muscles moving in accordance with each other. And

3128
08:56:57.319 --> 08:57:09.680
what happens in this space that we're sharing is we

3129
08:57:09.919 --> 08:57:30.799
move from that big movement into those smaller movements. Starting

3130
08:57:30.959 --> 08:57:41.759
to focus on how your body feels, not just as

3131
08:57:41.799 --> 08:57:46.360
a whole, not just oh, i'm feeling this way. I'm

3132
08:57:46.400 --> 08:57:52.279
feeling stressed or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm.

3133
08:57:53.599 --> 08:58:00.119
I'm feeling this way, I'm feeling that way. Start and

3134
08:58:00.200 --> 08:58:07.799
to notice that your body begins to present to you

3135
08:58:11.200 --> 08:58:29.119
small feelings around your body, small physical sensations in your legs,

3136
08:58:31.919 --> 08:58:45.119
whether pleasurable or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label

3137
08:58:45.200 --> 08:58:54.759
them or to judge them. Those feelings, just thinking them,

3138
08:58:55.639 --> 08:59:08.599
thinking about them is just being neutral, just feelings, not

3139
08:59:08.840 --> 08:59:20.479
being particularly conserned, just noticing what your body is telling you,

3140
08:59:28.439 --> 08:59:34.759
feelings in your arms instead of feeling the whole of

3141
08:59:34.880 --> 08:59:44.479
the arm. I've you notice those individual feelings, all those

3142
08:59:44.560 --> 08:59:56.360
different muscles and the skin, the hairs of your arms,

3143
08:59:58.279 --> 09:00:12.319
all the internal parts of your arms, the veins, the bones,

3144
09:00:15.200 --> 09:00:21.240
just being aware of maybe your elbow on your right

3145
09:00:21.439 --> 09:00:32.040
arm has a certain feeling. Maybe you're left wrist also

3146
09:00:32.319 --> 09:00:55.319
has it's own individual physical sensation. What about your forearm

3147
09:00:56.439 --> 09:00:56.919
on your.

3148
09:00:56.880 --> 09:00:57.599
Right arm.

3149
09:00:59.520 --> 09:01:12.759
You're right for there may not be any particular feeling

3150
09:01:12.919 --> 09:01:20.959
that you could even give a name to, may not

3151
09:01:21.119 --> 09:01:26.119
feel like anything other than just a feeling. You know,

3152
09:01:26.319 --> 09:01:38.759
it's there. The feelings in your shoulders, perhaps your shoulders

3153
09:01:38.840 --> 09:01:42.439
when you think about them, kind of almost like they're

3154
09:01:42.439 --> 09:01:49.040
the same, you know, the same feeling, almost like you

3155
09:01:49.360 --> 09:01:53.959
both of your shoulders are just one thing. Of course

3156
09:01:54.080 --> 09:02:05.400
they're not. And when you focus on your left shoulder

3157
09:02:08.119 --> 09:02:13.279
and then on your right shoulder, maybe find that you

3158
09:02:14.680 --> 09:02:19.720
move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense the muscles gently,

3159
09:02:25.360 --> 09:02:44.799
noticing the difference in each shoulder and your lower back,

3160
09:02:57.680 --> 09:03:01.360
the left side of your lower back and the right

3161
09:03:01.599 --> 09:03:12.560
side of your lower back. Of course, that connection to

3162
09:03:12.680 --> 09:03:26.200
your buttocks into your hips and also moving up into

3163
09:03:26.279 --> 09:03:39.639
the middle of your back, and sometimes like right now, actually,

3164
09:03:40.520 --> 09:03:44.200
when I focus on their part, when I focused on

3165
09:03:44.279 --> 09:03:50.080
my buttocks and then I focused on the middle of

3166
09:03:50.159 --> 09:03:53.439
my back, almost felt like the muscles in my lower

3167
09:03:53.520 --> 09:04:03.639
back were being stretched very gently, just stretched a little bit.

3168
09:04:05.599 --> 09:04:12.360
Even though I wasn't doing anything to try to stretch

3169
09:04:14.360 --> 09:04:18.680
your lower back, it just seemed to happen. The feeling

3170
09:04:19.319 --> 09:04:39.360
of very gently stretching your lower back comes along and

3171
09:04:39.799 --> 09:05:05.119
feeling in your chest, just noticing what sensations you are

3172
09:05:05.319 --> 09:05:22.439
experiencing in your chest right now. And there's so much

3173
09:05:22.680 --> 09:05:26.880
of the chest. Obviously, there's the collar bone leading to

3174
09:05:27.040 --> 09:05:33.319
the chest. You've got the chest bone, You've got the

3175
09:05:33.479 --> 09:05:42.319
muscles in your chest. Of course, if you're female, there's

3176
09:05:43.479 --> 09:05:46.959
possibly the breasts your male.

3177
09:05:48.720 --> 09:05:49.319
You've got the.

3178
09:05:52.159 --> 09:05:57.680
Different well why not that different these days, but there

3179
09:05:57.759 --> 09:06:02.959
may be more muscles at the top of the chest

3180
09:06:06.520 --> 09:06:11.599
at the side underneath. It's pretty much the same whether

3181
09:06:11.599 --> 09:06:16.239
you're a man or a woman. There's muscles there, muscles

3182
09:06:16.279 --> 09:06:21.279
that stretch out to your back as well as breast

3183
09:06:21.360 --> 09:06:29.959
tissue stretches and moves into your back. To just being

3184
09:06:30.000 --> 09:06:49.480
aware of your chest being with whatever feeling there is

3185
09:06:50.919 --> 09:07:09.639
in your chest. Well, I noticed that I focused on

3186
09:07:09.760 --> 09:07:17.400
my chest. I feel it in my back and my

3187
09:07:17.639 --> 09:07:21.720
upper back. I mean, I guess the obvious reason would

3188
09:07:21.760 --> 09:07:31.720
be because you know, I'm breathe in in then it

3189
09:07:31.879 --> 09:07:35.279
stretches my chest and my back at the same time.

3190
09:07:43.199 --> 09:07:58.760
It feels it feels okay, it doesn't feel a little

3191
09:07:58.760 --> 09:08:05.199
bit of pain in my ro chest A little bit

3192
09:08:05.360 --> 09:08:11.839
not pain, but little discomfort, maybe stiffness possibly, I don't know.

3193
09:08:16.080 --> 09:08:24.160
Notice my shoulders are also wanting to flex for some reason.

3194
09:08:26.639 --> 09:08:35.040
That's probably part of my upper back, that connection between

3195
09:08:35.120 --> 09:08:39.279
my shoulders and my other back. Because I can move

3196
09:08:39.360 --> 09:08:46.680
my shoulders and stretch the muscles in my back, moving

3197
09:08:46.720 --> 09:08:53.160
the shoulders backwards or up, which then moves I think

3198
09:08:53.199 --> 09:09:08.760
it's the scapulous in your back. It feels quite nice.

3199
09:09:08.800 --> 09:09:17.559
Actually, a good thing about this is you can, if

3200
09:09:17.599 --> 09:09:18.959
you want to, you.

3201
09:09:19.160 --> 09:09:20.519
Can just.

3202
09:09:24.080 --> 09:09:35.720
Relax or stimulate the various muscles in your body gently

3203
09:09:37.160 --> 09:09:40.639
in order to get more of the sense of how

3204
09:09:40.720 --> 09:09:55.760
they feel. And when you're relaxing, when your detense and

3205
09:09:55.919 --> 09:09:59.720
muscle and you let it go and you let it

3206
09:09:59.760 --> 09:10:08.680
re relax, it relaxes way more than it would normally,

3207
09:10:13.839 --> 09:10:18.879
you have to feel that you're able to do that.

3208
09:10:20.519 --> 09:10:23.839
There's on a point of doing it. If there's an

3209
09:10:23.919 --> 09:10:31.559
issue with the perfect part of your body. You need

3210
09:10:31.639 --> 09:10:42.199
to be gentle with yourself at all times when relaxing deeply.

3211
09:10:45.199 --> 09:10:59.879
It's important to be kind to yourself. As you know

3212
09:11:00.080 --> 09:11:09.120
it'sss your mind. How much is your mind slowed down

3213
09:11:11.480 --> 09:11:38.040
since we started this recording. How come and peaceful is

3214
09:11:38.080 --> 09:11:47.839
your mind right now? We have nothing to think about

3215
09:11:50.360 --> 09:11:57.559
and just my voice to listen to, because you know,

3216
09:11:58.120 --> 09:12:09.040
the intention behind this recording is relaxation. At the very least,

3217
09:12:10.639 --> 09:12:15.160
for you to feel more relaxed at the end of

3218
09:12:15.239 --> 09:12:23.440
the recording than you did at the beginning, at the

3219
09:12:23.639 --> 09:12:35.279
very least, to your mind to slow down because your

3220
09:12:35.400 --> 09:12:46.959
body continues to relax, because that's.

3221
09:12:47.000 --> 09:12:47.639
What you.

3222
09:12:49.199 --> 09:13:09.040
Want to happen. That's what you expect to happen, a

3223
09:13:09.239 --> 09:13:14.360
relaxation to fill.

3224
09:13:16.720 --> 09:13:27.760
Your body, maybe calm your mind.

3225
09:13:28.959 --> 09:13:36.440
To the point of bulleden when you start, maybe to

3226
09:13:42.080 --> 09:14:23.839
drift away through It's all most as if moving further

3227
09:14:24.000 --> 09:14:32.279
away from the body in your mind, just leaving that there,

3228
09:14:40.239 --> 09:14:44.519
kind of liking it an escape pod in the spaceship

3229
09:14:44.919 --> 09:14:48.480
a movie, a space movie. You know and and against

3230
09:14:48.519 --> 09:14:55.440
that little pardon, it sends the man far away from

3231
09:14:55.480 --> 09:15:08.040
the spaceship six three.

3232
09:15:16.959 --> 09:16:04.400
Two two monster.

3233
09:16:03.160 --> 09:16:18.360
I s and be so.

3234
09:16:49.239 --> 09:17:24.559
Pays and focusing on the easing of those individual parts

3235
09:17:25.360 --> 09:17:31.120
your body that's relaxing.

3236
09:17:33.080 --> 09:17:33.800
One point one.

3237
09:17:41.440 --> 09:17:41.959
You may.

3238
09:17:43.720 --> 09:17:44.680
Find that.

3239
09:17:49.040 --> 09:17:49.720
Every now and.

3240
09:17:49.879 --> 09:18:01.199
Then you realize that you aren't listening to my voice

3241
09:18:03.839 --> 09:18:15.559
because your mind started to imagine something different, maybe started

3242
09:18:15.680 --> 09:18:24.239
to almost move into some kind of a dreamy state.

3243
09:18:29.120 --> 09:18:31.760
And then you become aware of my voice again.

3244
09:18:35.360 --> 09:18:37.720
And even though you may.

3245
09:18:39.599 --> 09:18:44.599
Want to focus on my voice, you may also wish

3246
09:18:44.919 --> 09:18:58.279
to allow your mind to just drift naturally into that

3247
09:18:58.639 --> 09:19:19.760
space that come effoots and safety, and you feel warm

3248
09:19:20.319 --> 09:19:33.559
comfort spreading through your body, like a warm blanket covering

3249
09:19:33.720 --> 09:19:47.720
you gently, keeping your body at just the perfect temperature.

3250
09:19:58.360 --> 09:20:01.000
Even if you can here.

3251
09:20:00.919 --> 09:20:13.959
The background sounds, they just don't seem to matter anymore.

3252
09:20:19.319 --> 09:20:35.720
There's that sensor peace spreads through your mind like a

3253
09:20:35.919 --> 09:20:52.639
gentle breeze, yet strong enough to blow away all negativity, strong.

3254
09:20:52.480 --> 09:20:52.919
Enough to.

3255
09:20:56.319 --> 09:21:06.440
Remove from your mind any anxiety or stress that was

3256
09:21:06.639 --> 09:21:22.360
there before, and blow away any other thoughts for healings.

3257
09:21:24.639 --> 09:21:27.599
Just don't fit.

3258
09:21:31.480 --> 09:21:51.720
With the sense relaxation that is feeling your body.

3259
09:21:56.559 --> 09:21:57.239
Ed your mind.

3260
09:22:11.959 --> 09:22:16.760
As you have woke this on your mind, you count

3261
09:22:16.879 --> 09:22:24.000
down tamn down to one. With each number you hear,

3262
09:22:27.160 --> 09:22:31.839
your mind will become.

3263
09:22:37.559 --> 09:22:44.160
Slightly m hm.

3264
09:22:47.000 --> 09:22:52.319
Relaxed, just just slightly.

3265
09:22:56.160 --> 09:23:00.680
Ten down to nine, just a slide movement.

3266
09:23:02.760 --> 09:23:05.680
You're nine, down to eight, just.

3267
09:23:05.760 --> 09:23:22.839
Another small change in how you feel. Eight down to seven.

3268
09:23:23.319 --> 09:23:30.000
Head that feelings is a gap, and it's like a

3269
09:23:30.519 --> 09:23:36.360
gap that starts to get the wider, the gap between

3270
09:23:37.519 --> 09:23:39.879
those feelings.

3271
09:23:41.000 --> 09:23:44.239
That you used to have in your mind.

3272
09:23:47.279 --> 09:23:54.559
Compared to the feelings you have there growing now, feedings

3273
09:23:54.639 --> 09:23:56.000
of comfort.

3274
09:23:55.760 --> 09:23:57.319
And security, and.

3275
09:24:03.160 --> 09:24:05.559
And they can't become wider.

3276
09:24:07.199 --> 09:24:10.480
A down to seven, seven, down to six.

3277
09:24:14.279 --> 09:24:20.680
We get to five, the mind will start to have

3278
09:24:20.879 --> 09:24:34.400
a certain physical sensation, most like there's a magnet outside

3279
09:24:34.519 --> 09:24:40.839
of your head, sucking detention and the stress and any

3280
09:24:40.959 --> 09:24:44.040
remaining feelings.

3281
09:24:43.760 --> 09:24:49.160
That you don't want, sucking them out through your skull.

3282
09:24:54.919 --> 09:24:59.680
And then down to four you can start to me

3283
09:25:00.120 --> 09:25:03.639
the experience that sense.

3284
09:25:05.000 --> 09:25:15.519
Not just emptiness, but space, place full of fresh air,

3285
09:25:20.400 --> 09:25:27.120
the place where you can stretch. It's almost as if

3286
09:25:27.199 --> 09:25:31.279
as you go down to four and three, your mind

3287
09:25:31.440 --> 09:25:35.720
is expanded with this sense.

3288
09:25:38.319 --> 09:25:39.680
Of peace.

3289
09:25:41.040 --> 09:25:43.839
And tranquility, growing.

3290
09:25:46.400 --> 09:25:52.120
Moves down to get to one.

3291
09:25:53.839 --> 09:26:02.080
Mind just feels, it's acting how you want to feel,

3292
09:26:05.639 --> 09:26:21.319
the most perfect fading idea, the sensation that.

3293
09:26:22.919 --> 09:26:24.279
You'd like to keep.

3294
09:26:27.319 --> 09:26:30.680
The place that say, where.

3295
09:26:31.919 --> 09:26:38.160
Nothing can affect you at all.

3296
09:26:50.080 --> 09:26:59.680
Need to stay in that that space of tuft, confidence, confidently,

3297
09:27:00.199 --> 09:27:09.400
own ability to create this space and this fear of colfor.

3298
09:27:09.559 --> 09:27:11.599
Within your own mind.

3299
09:27:12.919 --> 09:27:15.480
Just bycounting ten.

3300
09:27:17.040 --> 09:27:17.760
Down to one.

3301
09:27:22.319 --> 09:27:25.639
And this is something that you can do yourself.

3302
09:27:26.680 --> 09:27:33.760
When you're on your own, the time when you can

3303
09:27:33.879 --> 09:27:37.800
maybe sit down, maybe just for a few minutes.

3304
09:27:42.080 --> 09:27:50.160
Close your eyes, just count slowly ten.

3305
09:27:52.879 --> 09:27:53.879
Down to one.

3306
09:27:58.080 --> 09:28:00.639
And experience.

3307
09:28:01.440 --> 09:28:11.800
These feelings in your mind or would you feel that

3308
09:28:11.959 --> 09:28:13.080
way in your mind?

3309
09:28:14.839 --> 09:28:29.080
Your body copies your mind, and that feeling is spread

3310
09:28:29.360 --> 09:28:32.760
through your spine and.

3311
09:28:32.839 --> 09:28:35.440
Your nervous system into.

3312
09:28:35.480 --> 09:28:42.120
Every part of your body, travels through your blood strain,

3313
09:28:47.760 --> 09:28:50.360
feeling and relaxing.

3314
09:28:51.800 --> 09:29:09.760
Every article of your existence. Then we can we can

3315
09:29:09.919 --> 09:29:11.559
practice this a few.

3316
09:29:11.519 --> 09:29:18.839
Times before the end of the recording.

3317
09:29:19.000 --> 09:29:19.839
And then you can.

3318
09:29:21.160 --> 09:29:22.440
Write this on your own.

3319
09:29:24.440 --> 09:29:35.120
At each time you comfort ten about one. The feelings

3320
09:29:35.279 --> 09:29:37.040
of comforts.

3321
09:29:37.639 --> 09:29:40.160
Calms, deep.

3322
09:29:41.879 --> 09:30:03.720
Deep relaxation becomes stronger, deeper wid pray with these positive

3323
09:30:04.080 --> 09:30:16.720
chemicals spread throughout your body, relaxing you so quickly, relaxing

3324
09:30:16.919 --> 09:30:18.360
your whole body.

3325
09:30:18.239 --> 09:30:19.319
And mind.

3326
09:30:22.000 --> 09:30:22.879
So very.

3327
09:30:24.360 --> 09:30:40.800
Very easily, just by counting damn down to one. So

3328
09:30:40.959 --> 09:30:44.879
we can do it now, I recount from ten down

3329
09:30:44.959 --> 09:30:49.800
to wind. I'd like you to repeat the number after me,

3330
09:30:51.040 --> 09:30:52.199
So I say ten.

3331
09:30:55.239 --> 09:30:57.800
You can just repeat to yourself.

3332
09:31:05.559 --> 09:31:15.760
Just notice where wow you feel in your mind and

3333
09:31:15.919 --> 09:31:24.839
your body. I don't want to say nine. You can

09:31:24.919 --> 09:31:44.559

To say seven, six, and I say five.

3338
09:32:10.839 --> 09:32:26.279
Four, when I say three two, and I speak when

3339
09:32:26.319 --> 09:32:31.559
I say one, beat that number.

3340
09:32:39.040 --> 09:32:39.199
Now.

3341
09:32:39.360 --> 09:32:43.160
Of course, when you do this on your own.

3342
09:32:44.480 --> 09:32:49.440
About listening to me, you can say the numbers or

3343
09:32:49.559 --> 09:32:56.720

3344

Three years.

3345
09:33:00.080 --> 09:33:05.959
You can adapt if you feel you want to say

3346
09:33:06.080 --> 09:33:07.319
the numbers.

3347
09:33:07.040 --> 09:33:08.839
Ten down to one.

3348
09:33:10.480 --> 09:33:11.919
Faster than I do.

3349
09:33:13.720 --> 09:33:14.959
Can you go ahead and do that?

3350
09:33:15.839 --> 09:33:19.760
Would you feel when you do it yourself when you

3351
09:33:20.080 --> 09:33:29.040
light the more space between the numbers, maybe take a

3352
09:33:29.120 --> 09:33:30.360

09:33:31.239 --> 09:33:32.559
