Keep stacking high, high, high.
You're listening to the original my generation with Gary Jackson
And a very good morning from the south coast of England with a live My Generation.It's yours to- well, live as I can be at this time of day.With My Generation, two hours of music from the 1960s.Thanks very much to Harky for the last couple of hours.
He will be back Friday at 9pm with his rock show, and of course at 6am next Saturday and Sunday morning.So enough from me, let's start the memories.
Hey, Cousins, do you remember how much fun radio used to be?Well, we're still doing it here.
This is Gary Jackson with My Generation.
Everybody in this whole wide world Think it's time that something should happen
♪ Don't change it for me ♪ ♪ Don't change it baby, don't change it for me ♪ ♪ Don't change it ♪ ♪ If you find out you're the world's kind ♪ ♪ And all you want is a piece of mind ♪ ♪ I'll tell you how to get a piece of mind ♪
That's Fans Brass Factory getting us going today.Bit of Northern Soul with a song called Don't Chance it on the system.I think he's singing Don't Change It.
We'll move on to the first quiz with the first of a long line of hits of songs written by Roy Wood.This is the move.
The silent night has turned to another feeling
The Moves first hit single from 1966's Night of Fear as we head relentlessly into the first quiz.Can you identify this and what the song's called and who the artist is? Don't think that's been disguised too much, but it's not their best known hit.
They covered the Beatles.Maybe they should have known better.
And with a Joe Meek production, this is the Dowlands.
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you.Tomorrow I'll miss you.Remember I'll always be
And then while I'm away I'll write home every day And I'll send all my lovin' to you I'll pretend that I'm kissing the lips I'm missing And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I'm away I'll ride home every day And I'll send all my lovin' to you All my lovin' I will send to you All my lovin', darlin', I'll be true
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you Tomorrow I'll miss you Remember I'll always be true And then while I'm away I'll ride home every day And I'll send all my lovin' to you All my lovin'
I will send to you All my lovin' Darling, I'll be true All my lovin' All my lovin' Ooh, my lovin' I will send to you
The Dowlands, produced by Joe Meek, and their version of All My Loving.Well done already to Mick in Nedworth and Stuart in Cornwall, who both have the right answer to this.A couple more for me to check.I can tell you that it's not The Shadows.
In fact, it's not an instrumental when it gets going.Now, for Annika over in the Netherlands.
My lifeless, restless heart of mine, it will sail the oceans above.I was looking for someone to lead me on.Every heartbeat took me far away, took me further on. I felt the hunger in my soul Then you came and took my heart back
Two hearts they've got to hold on Forever in love With you Forever in love Like a knight in iron armour I was riding all over the land
How I tried I could not shield my heart Couldn't shield it from breaking apart I was near to giving up all I had got I was tired and I was cold I felt the hunger in my soul Then you came and took my heart back home I'm here to heaven after all this time
For Annika in the Netherlands, the Searchers and Forever in Love.And there's talk about some big gig coming up for the Searchers, but Frank Allen's not saying.You just can't get the rock gods these days.We'll have to wait to find out what it is.
Well done on the quiz to Zoran and Vera, to Annika, Helene, John in Chorley and Bruce over in Oregon. Yes, who's that?And what's the song called?
I met him on a Monday and my heart stood still.They do run, run, run, they do run, run.Somebody told me that his name was Bill.They do run, run, run, they do run, run.Yes, my heart stood still.Yes, his name was Bill.
And when he walked me home They do run, run, run, they do run, run Do what he was doing when he caught my eye They do run, run, run, they do run, run He looked so quiet but my, oh my They do run, run, run, they do run, run Yes, he caught my eye
They do run, run, run They do run, run, run
They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run They do run, run, run

You're listening to The Original My Generation, with Gary Jackson.
I promise you, whatever scum did this, not one man on this force will rest for one minute until he's behind bars.Now let's grab a bite to eat.
Scumthorpe, nil.Crew, nil.Port Vale, one.Halifax, two.Rochdale, nil.Chester, one. Torquay, two.Wrexham, one.God, who's interested in this stuff?Burnley, one.Colchester, nil.Some boring old market town in the middle of nowhere, one.
Obscure coal mining village, one. Dreary seaside resort, two.Some anonymous urban barnacle off the A1, nil.Deadly dull suburb of some northern industrial city, three.Godforsaken fishing port, nil.
Hideous East Midlands non-entity that doesn't even get a signpost at Spaghetti Junction, nil. Intolerably ugly West Country sprawl that wasn't helped by a town planner having a fit one Friday afternoon.One.
Depressing huddle of one-up, two-downs and one Asian greengrocer dwarfed by a derelict dockyard and three giant electricity furnaces belching green smoke all day that's twinned with a town in Belgium that doesn't even exist.One.Aldershot, nil.
Baby, when I'm with you, yeah.Baby, baby.
Eddie Floyd and a song called Things Get Better.I was half expecting him to sing with Coca-Cola, but no he didn't.Johnny Chorley's got the right answer, Bruce in Oregon, Mike in Dawlish now has the right answer to the quiz. Who is that?
What's the song called?Time for some clues.The song title.Well, a lot of people think the song's about being on drugs, but the guy that wrote it, he said it was just about being on an aeroplane.The name of the group.
Well, it's one of those feathered flying creatures, but misspelt.
What is a B-side?Well, you see, it's the other side of the record.The one no one ever plays.You know that one?
An A-side B-side now from The Equals.And the B-side of this hit was called The Guy Who Made Her A Star.
Drinkin' alone in the downtown bar Watchin' the ice fall from my cigar Singin' the ice cubes, milkin' my drink, and drive to sleep Yeah, yeah Jump in the car, turn my radio on I hear her singin' her latest song Once a week I see her on TV.
But that smile ain't made for me.No, that smile ain't made for me.I'm the guy who made her a star.We were sold my brand new guitar to play.
We played the nightclubs all over town And we were making a pretty good sound People were trying to get her to sign Her name and make the big time Her name and make the big time So we did and now she's a star
That she owns a thousand new cars But she don't get time to draw her line She tells me how things are She tells me how things are
You made her stop, even sold my brand new guitar To play the friend, to get her there Look at that bright, bright star Look at that bright, bright star Yes, I'm the guy who made her stop, even sold my brand new guitar
You've heard the b-side, here's the hits. Sweet little fellas, you pay to see Saturday morning, beaches are free Their little children all come to see They want to touch me, they want to love me I always give them pictures of me
Laurel and Hardy, pictures of her My little girlfriend comes down to see her She gets so jealous and picks on the show I love to laugh but it's out of control They want to touch me, they want to love me They see a man that cannot be me
Star at the party, pictures of me Sweet little fellas, you make me sing Saturday morning, pictures of me Big little children, I'll come to see They want to touch me, they want to love me I always give them pictures of me
The Equals and one of their hits called Laurel and Hardy.Now, the question is, how are we doing on the quiz?Oh, before that, rather, the B-side.The Guy Who Made Her A Star was the title of that B-side.
Now, on the subject of the quiz, we've gone as far as Bruce, I think.Mike in Dawlish has got it right, Anita in Epsom, John and Marilyn in Toton, Helmut in Germany, Patricia in Munich, Pompey Keith has got it right, and so has Tony.
Yeah, who's that and what's the song called?Let's have a song that's been covered by a number of artists and none of them managed to get it in the charts.
I think Vanity Fair is my own personal favourite version, but I've never played the version of Better By Far by Jimmy James.
It's better by far To turn and go Your way with him And to stay with him Let him know the things I can never know The way things are It's better by far
To tell myself It's been worthwhile And to try to smile Let me turn the key And lock away This aching heart Better by far To turn and say Let's end this way With no regrets To end it now, pretend that somehow we've never met.
Oh, while things are the way they are, it's better by My heart was wrong Oh, the flame burns on While we say goodbye I'll hold my head up high Don't just tell you're gone Better by far To turn and say Let's end this away With no regrets Better by far
Jimmy James version of the song Better By Far and for Helmets over in Germany
The Shadows for Helmut and Apache.We've got one of these coming along now.
Time for a last jukebox single from the 60s.
The compilation CD that this is from, they couldn't even identify the name of the artist.All they had on the recording was her name was Jude, and this is her version of Morning Morgantown.
In Morgantown The merchants roll their awnings down The milk trucks make their morning rounds In morning Morgantown We'll rise up early with sun To ride the bus while everyone Is yawning and the day is young
And sip our tea and lemonade And watch the morning on parade In Morning Morgantown Morning Morgantown
Jude, and others, and their version of Joni Mitchell's Morning Morgantown.

Lemonade pies, hey got your brand new call. Judy in disguise, what you aiming for?The circus of a horror, yeah, yeah, well that's what you are You make me laugh, I thank you And I guess I'll just take your glasses
John Fred and his Playboy band, who are a good example of an artist who was so much more than their one hit.If you get a compilation of theirs, there's a lot of blues stuff on it as well.They played a lot of John Lee Hooker and stuff like that.
And that was the only time they entered the charts.Well done to David and Trina, who have got the right answer to this. Who's that?What's the song called?Answer coming in about 10 minutes time.
Now it's time for Patricia's request over in Munich for a man who was so prolific.This is Pat Boone.
Moody River, more deadly than the vainest knife Moody River, your muddy water took my baby's life Last Saturday evening, came to the old oak tree It stands beside the river where you were to meet
On the ground your glove I found with a note addressed to me It read, dear love, I've done you wrong, now I must set you free No longer can I live with this hurt and this sin I just couldn't tell you that guy was just a fool
Moody River, more deadly than the vainest knife Moody River, your muddy water took my life I looked into the muddy waters and what could I see?I saw a lonely, lonely face just looking back at me Tears in his eyes and a breath on his lips
And the glove of his lost love at his fingertips Moody River, more deadly than the vainest knife Moody River, your muddy water took my baby's life
He almost needed his own record label in the early 1960s, he put out so much material.Pat Boone and a song called Moody River.Now I've always said, there have always been more good singers than good songs.
So here are two tunes, written or co-written by British songwriter Geoff Stevens.
You know about the crying game I've had my share of the crying game First there are kisses About the crying to stop feeling when First there are kisses Then there are sighs And then before you know where you are You're saying goodbye
The same person who wrote that also wrote this.
There's a kind of hush all over the world Tonight, all over the world, you can hear the sounds of lovers in love You know what I mean, just the two of us, and nobody else Inside, there's nobody else, and I'm feeling good, just holding you tight
So listen very carefully Closer now and you will see what I mean It isn't a dream
The only sound that you won't hear Is when I whisper in your ear I love you Forever and ever There's a kind of hush all over the world Tonight all over the world You can hear the sound of lovers in love
La-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la So listen very carefully Closer now and you will see what I mean It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear Is when I whisper in your ear I love you Forever and ever There's a kind of ash All over the world Tonight, all over the world People just like us Have fallen in love Yeah, they've fallen in love
Dave Berry with The Crying Game followed by Herman's Hummets and There's a Kind of Hush.Just two of the songs co-written by Geoff Stephens and of course the new vaudeville band did the original version of There's a Kind of Hush.
I think I did play it once.Now we've got to do the answer to the first quiz which is the slip disc.I think the second one is a back to front. So on the first quiz, no shadows, no doors.
Well done to Mick, Stuart, Zoran and Vera, Annika, Helene, John and Chorley, Bruce, Mike, Anita, John and Marilyn, Helmut, Patricia, Pompey, Keith, Tony and David and Trina.
I think you've all done very well.
That's the slipped, slipped, slipped, slipped disc.Put a half crown on it on the dance set and it sounds like this.
It was the birds and a song called Eight Miles High.He's just on a plane.
And when you touch down, you'll find that it's stranger than known.Signs in the city that say where you're going are somewhere just being their own.
Can't walk to be found I'm a loser, afraid of losing their ground Rainy, rainy town, nobody's found In places, small places undone Some laughing, some just shapeless forms.Cyborgs in years, hang like the mountains.
Some living, some standing all alone.
The birds, and the answer to the first of the quizzes today, the birds and eight miles high, which takes us to the point in proceedings that involves this.
Let's go back to your childhood, childhood, childhood, childhood, childhood... Hello children everywhere.
This is Uncle Mac speaking.Here are some singing games made at our gramophone studio party to help you at your party.Time to get the wagons in a circle.
Three wheels on my wagon And I'm still rollin' along The Cherokees are chasin' me Arrows fly right on by But I'm singin' a happy song I'm singin' a higgity-haggity-hoggity-high Get back in the wagon, woman!
Two wheels on my wagon, and I'm still rolling along Them Cherokees are after me Flaming spears burn my ears, but I'm singing along
I'm a-singin' the higgity-haggity-hoggity-high Pioneers, they never say die Half a mile up the road, there's a hidden cave And we can watch those Cherokees go gallopin' by Uh, Pa, are you sure this is the right road?
Well, you hush up, you and your maps One wheel on my wagon and I'm still rolling along Them Cherokees after me I'm all in flames at the reins but I'm singing
I'm singin' Higgity-haggity-hoggity-hi Pioneers, they never say die Right around that turn there's a hidden cave And we can watch those Cherokees go gallopin' by George, should I get the bag of beads and trinkets?
Woman, I know what I'm doin' No wheels on my wagon So I'm not rollin' along The Cherokees captured me.They look mad, things look bad, but I'm singing a happy song.Come on all you Cherokees, sing along with me!
Hickety, huckety, huckety, hickety, huckety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety, hickety,
The new Christy Minstrels with Barry Maguire on lead vocals and Three Wheels on My Wagon.Maybe if he'd got it MOT'd.
You can't judge an apple by looking at a tree.You can't judge honey by looking at the bee.You can't judge a daughter by looking at the mother. Can't judge a book by looking at the cover Can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh, come on in closer, baby.Hear what else I gotta say.You got your radio turned down too low.Turn it up.
You can't judge sugar by looking at the cane You can't judge a woman by looking at her mane You can't judge a sister by looking at her brother You can't judge a book by looking at the cover Oh, can't you see?Oh, you misjudge me
Like a farmer, but I'm a lover Can't judge a book by looking at the cover You can't judge a fish by looking in the pond.You can't judge a right by looking at the wrong.You can't judge one by looking at the other.
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover.Oh, can't you see?Oh, you can't judge me.Ain't like a farmer, I'm a lover. church a book by looking
Bo Diddley on the Pi International label and a song called you can't judge a book by its cover as we head to a Beatles song but not by the Beatles of course the Beatles went to number one with Hey Jude but if my memory serves me correctly this version made number 12 I think it was this is Wilson Pickett Hey Jude don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better Remember to let her in your heart Then you can start to make it better Hey Jude, don't be afraid You were made, made to go out and get her You let her under your skin, then you begin to make it better.
Anytime you feel the pain, don't you refrain.Don't care. Don't let me down You found her Now go on out and get her But remember to let her in your heart Then you can start
For someone to grow up with And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you do The whole mess you need is on your shoulder Hey Jude, don't make it bad Take a sad song, make it better Just remember to let out your skin
Wilson Pickett's version of Hey Jude, which was a couple of minutes shorter than the Beatles version, which did go on a bit, let's be honest.We've got the next quiz coming up after the next song, which comes from Gary Farr and the T-Bones.
Don't stop and stare when you see me Where's another gal?Cause I, I love you More than I can do I, I love you But you must understand When you see me
Walking hand in hand with another I don't mean anything I don't mean to hurt you girl I'm just a common man So please take me as I am You can't tell when you see me with another gal But I, I love you more than I can do
To where you go I don't mean anything I'm just a common man So please take me as I am Don't stop and stare when you see me Look under the cover Cause I love you More than I can do
But you must understand when you see me Walking hand in hand Walking hand in hand Walking hand in hand Walking hand in hand
Believe that, you believe anything.Gary Farr and the T-Bones, and a song called Don't Stop and Stare.Now, this is the back to front.
It's a very well-known song, it has to be said, it was number one for months, well, maybe not months, but a long time.But who is it, and what's the song called?As I say, it is a back to front. That two things at the end might help.

She's fine as can be, and was so good to me I had a good thing, but I blew it Oh, now I'm all alone, the love we had is over, can I do good to renew it?If I only had a hand to contain you, I promise I wouldn't hesitate
A Wing Star, 1967, and a song called I Want My Baby Back.
Well, I'd be doggone if I didn't work all day, baby And I'd be doggone if I didn't get my pay, baby But if I ever caught you running around Blowing my money all over this town Then I wouldn't be doggone, I wouldn't be doggone I'd be long gone, I'd be long gone
I'd be long gone I'd be long gone Well, I'd be doggone if you ain't a pretty thing And I'd be doggone if you ain't as warm as a spring
But if we lived to be a hundred years old If you'd ever let that spring take hold Then I wouldn't be doggone I wouldn't be doggone
I say, hey, oh, believe me Well, every woman should try to be What every man wants her to be But I don't want much All I want is for you to be true to me I've been doggone revived in one whole day
And I'd be doggone if I didn't get my pay But if I ever caught you running around Blowing my money all over this town Then I wouldn't be doggone I'd be long gone And I wouldn't be doggone
Billy J. Kramer with a Dakota's version of I'll Be Doggone, originally by Marvin Gaye.Couple of people have got this right.Anita's got it right in Epsom.Annika's got it right in the Netherlands.Who is it?What's the song called?
Get that finger out of your ear.You don't know where that finger's been.
I killed Garry Mountain, I spied Cannon Pepper And his money, he was counting I rattled out my pistols and I drew forth my sabre Grind, sand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver Mush a-ringing, darn da Wack-fall-a-daddy-ah, wack-fall-a-daddy-ah There's whiskey in the jar The gold and silver coins, they look so bright and shiny Oh, I took them home straightway and I gave them to my molly
But when I awoke between six and seven The guards were all around me in numbers odd and even I reached for my pistols but I lost them all
Prisoner, I was taken Musha ringin' derndah Black hole and Eddie O, black hole and Eddie O There's whiskey in the jar They put me in the jail without Judge O'Wright For robbin' Colonel Pepper, oh, on Kilgaremont But they didn't take my fist, so I knocked the sentry down And bid farewell to the jail in Schleigertown Musha ringin' derndah
In fishin' and in bowlin' No others take delight In their carriages a-rollin' But I take delight In the juice of the barley And cotton pretty girls Till the mornin' so early Mush a-ringin' them doves
The Seekers and their version of Whiskey in the Jar.

Hi, join me, Simon Davis, on a Saturday afternoon on Big L2 playing new hits from the early 80s right up to today.Look forward to your company at 5 o'clock.
I certainly will, every Sunday here on BeGallant International, for two hours from six o'clock, The Keith Mardell Show.It'd be great if you could join me.
This is Gary Jackson with My Generation.
This year I switched the lights on in Carlisle.It's nothing to do with Christmas, but they've got electricity now, so that's good. Unlikely lines from a romantic novel.
Romeo, Romeo, 5-5, Alpha Zulu, Tango, Grey Skoda Octavia, last scene heading towards M6.
Dusty Springfield's second hit single called Stay Awhile.Now it's time for some clues for this.Anita knows, Annika knows, Helmut knows, so does... Not Donovan, though, unfortunately.
Put your beard down and give us a clue.
Coffee, coffee.Yes, who is this and what's the song called?Well, clues.Number one in 1962, it was number one for many weeks, I think I'm right in saying.It was also the song that, it was the lead song from a film.And the film starred a British group.
The title of the film and the title of the song, they definitely weren't old.And the group, I mean the singer, lead singer, has probably had more hits in the UK than any other.Certainly he seems to have had hits in every decade since the 1950s.
So who are they, with his backing band, and what's the song called?
it's time for three before the Beatles whoever they were we used to have good times together but now Makes me cry to see love die So sad to watch good love go Nothing could change your mind.It breaks my heart to see us part.So sad to watch the
That I feel so blue When I know for certain That I'm losing you Remember how you used to feel dear You said nothing could change your mind It breaks my heart to see us part So sad to watch good love go bad So sad to watch
The Beatles didn't cover this.They didn't write it either.
It's been nine times again But I won't stop until the end soon Again, and again, and again Well, don't try to fight it, cause it's no use You're gonna find out that I'm stubborn as a doggone mule And I ain't gonna try it just nine times again.
Well, if I miss the nine times that I've tried, baby, I'll bet my life I'll get you on another day.
Well, don't try to fight it, cuz baby, it ain't no use You're gonna find out what's comin' as a dog or a mule Nine times out of ten, I've tried to kiss ya And I ain't tried just nine times again Well, and if I miss you nine times and I try Well, baby, I'll live my life again
The Beatles soon changed the sound of music from this.
My love for you Is deep and endless as the sea Strong and mighty as a tree My love for you My eager heart keeps beating just for you alone Since the moment it has known my love for you
There will be no other lips, no other arms, no other love for me Feeling as I do, how could there be? And so it will be Far beyond eternity Ever faithful, ever true My love for you
So it will be Far beyond eternity Ever faithful, ever true My love for you Ugh.
Three songs from the British chart today in 1961, Everly Sisters with So Sad To Watch Good Love Go Bad, Cliff And The Shadows, rather topical, and Nine Times Out Of Ten, and Johnny Mathis and a song called My Love For You.
So, well done to Stuart, John and Marilyn, Brian in Derbyshire, Alec, you've got the artist, but it was the film before the one you've gone for, Pompey Keats got it right, so have David and Trina,
Tony, Steve-O in Glasgow's got it right, and Mike in Dawlish.It's that bomp-bomp at the end, I think.Can you imagine that back to front?Or the right way round, I should say.

The Best Golden Oldies with Golden Oldie Gary Jackson.
Is this a medley or has he dozed off again?
In the morning, when the moon is at its rest, you will see At the time I loved the best, watching rainbows play on sun lights, pools of water, ice from cold ice in the morning.Tis the morning.
In the daytime I will meet you as before You will find me Waiting by the ocean for building castles In the shifting sands No one understands in the morning.
Tis the morning of my life.Tis the morning of
King of my life The minutes take so long to drift away Please be patient with your life It's only morning and you're still to live your day
In the evening I will fly to the moon To the top right-hand corner of the ceiling in my room Where we'll stay until the sun shines another day To swing on clotheslines is the moment

I say, it is now time to dust off this old gramophone record and put it on the turntable.
Well, now they often call me Speedo, but my real name is Mister.Well, now they often call me Speedo, but my real name is Mister.Oh, for meeting brand new fellas and taking other folks as girls.
Well, now they often call me Speedo, cause I don't believe in wasting time.
♪ Well now they all call me Speedo ♪ ♪ Cause I don't believe in wasting time ♪ ♪ Well I'm known for pretty women ♪ ♪ And I've caused them to change their mind ♪ ♪ Well now some they call me Joe ♪ ♪ Some they call me Moe ♪ ♪ Yes ma'am a Speedo he don't never take it slow ♪ ♪ Well now they all call me Speedo ♪ ♪ But my real name is Mr. ♪

And now they gonna call me Speedo till they call off making pretty girls The two vintage tunes that we heard Slick Slavin first what a great rock and roll name and a song called Speed Crazy followed by the Cadillacs and Speedo and now for one of these Here's another song that should have been a hit
Would you believe that she could pack up and leave?Well, I can certainly tell you I know so Tell me, my friend, was I a fool to pretend?And now I've lost everything that I've lived for
Wish I knew what to do, I can't believe that it's true I know you laugh when I tell you I beg for a row Tell me my friend, was I a fool to pretend?And now I've lost everything that I've lived for Oh honey love, do you love that girl?
That's Angel Pavement and Baby, You Gotta Stay.And on the subject of unknown songs that maybe should have done better, this is Judy Cannon and a song called The Very First Day I Met You.The very first day
I met you, I heard sweet music from out the blue On the first day I met you You spoke, a bird sang in my head
It was the first time for me, love On the very first day I met you Ding, dong, ding, let the church bells ring I found my baby For I'm weak to cold and rain And I don't mean well
On the first day I met you I heard sweet music from out the booth On the first day you met me Ding, dong, ding, let the cherry bells ring
While we eat the golden ring And I go meet my baby baby Baby baby I'll meet you I hear the sweet music From out the blue On the first day I'll meet you I'll meet you
Judy Cannon, and the very first day I met you.Well done to our very own Peter Twyford, who's got the right answer to this.Now, he'll be on Tuesdays from 4 until 6 for the time being, not sure if it's permanent or not.We'll find out eventually.
I've been gone, you've had your number changed But my love for you, girl, still remains the same Now I've been loving you And you've been loving me
Baby, what's wrong?So I beg you, baby, baby, baby Please let me have your number, yeah
I'm sorry you couldn't call me when you got home But other fellas kept on callin' while you were gone I had the number changed But I'm not acting strange Welcome home
Nothing's wrong So I'm saying Baby, baby, baby You can have my private number Baby, baby, baby You can have my private number Baby, baby, baby You can have my private number Baby, baby, baby For givin' me your private number
Judy Clay and William Bell and Private Number.Before that, Judy Cannon had a song called The Very First Day I Met You.Now to take us up to the answer, to the back to front, a group we've already heard on the show today.This is the Byrds.
So you want to be a rock'n'roll star, then listen now to what I say Just get an electric guitar and take some time and learn how to play And when your hair's gone bright and your pants are tied, it's gonna be alright Then it's time to go downtown where the agent man won't let you down
Sell your soul to the company who are waiting there to sell plastic clear And in a week or two if you make the charts the girls will tear you apart
Was it all a strange game?
You're a little insane.The money that came and the public acclaimed.Don't forget what you are, you're a rock and roll star.
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Thanks very much for keeping me company.
Nick is next with the Sunday service and that was the Byrds and so you want to be a rock and roll star and well done to Anita, to Annika, Helmut, Stuart, John and Marilyn, Brian, Alec who got the artist, Pompey Keith, David and Trina, Tony, Steve-O, Mike and our very own Peter Twyford.
I think you've all done very well.
Thank you Mr Grace.Carry on everybody.
So that's the song back to front.Here it is the right way round.
Yeah, it was disguised a lot, wasn't it?It was Cliff and the Shadows, of course, and the Young Ones, which, of course, we all still are.
The Young Ones Darling, we're the Young Ones
And the young ones shouldn't be afraid To live low while the flame is strong Cause we may not be the young ones very long Tomorrow, we'll wait until tomorrow Cause tomorrow
Sometimes never comes So love me There's a song to be sung And the best time is to sing it While we're young Once in every lifetime Comes a love like this
should be dreams together and a young heart shouldn't be afraid and someday when the years have flown darling then we'll teach the young ones
Once in every lifetime Come to love like this Oh, I need you, you need me Oh, my darling, can't you see?
Young dreams should be dreams together And young hearts shouldn't be afraid And some
Teflon, darling, then we'll teach the young ones
