Blue - gonna capture your heart
No not the boy band of nowadays though there was a court case where this original "Blue" band tried to stop the later group using the name. Their only chart hit and its a bit of a soft rock horror.
Billy Ocean - red light spells danger
Red velvet suit also spells danger, especially if worn together with huge yellow collars. Billy, looking a bit like strawberry and custard, performs in front of a giant dented mirror. Its a good song despite all this.
David poses with two girls, and presents the "lovely" Legs & Co to perform David Soul's "going in with my eyes open". As usual the dance troupe dance so disjointedly you'd think they were all strangers who have actually never met before... or rehearsed. They all wear matching white ball gowns, not quite sure what this has to go with the song though it is a bit of a weepy.
David Dundas - another funny honeymoon
Generic pop-rock, would make a half-decent album filler track. Inoffensive.
David has two more young girls, the player. Some joke at Tony Blackburn's expense is badly delivered despite no doubt dozens of practice attempts.
Lynsey De Paul & Mike Moran - rock bottom
This is fun, with matching grand pianos we get a jaunty and quirky little duet. This was the UK's entry in Eurovision in 1977 and ended up the runner-up behind France.
Berni Flint - i don't want to put a hold on you
Nice country song, as i said last time i think it reminds me of Glen Campbell, and thats good. Very good.
Stylistics - $7000 and you
Matching suits and nice afros, but a boring song.
Bonnie Tyler - more than a lover
Bonnie belts this out, the microphone probably being superfluous as the whole nation could probably have heard her from Television Centre. Its a nice slinky tune but the blurry vaseline-on-camera effect is rather overdone, not helped by the tape of this show being a bit poorer in quality than usual. Good tune though, Bonnie at one stage makes a face indicating she wasn't that happy with her performance but it was great.
David has Mike Nesmith with him! Mike hilariously knows who the number one sound is but not what their song is and it is...
ABBA - knowing me knowing you
And you know this video already.
