1
00:00:04,380 --> 00:00:06,140
I've looked at 50,000
photographs of myself
2
00:00:06,140 --> 00:00:09,220
in Countdown Magazine,
and I still don't feel sexy.
3
00:00:09,220 --> 00:00:11,580
Which is strange
because I am Rik Mayall,
4
00:00:11,580 --> 00:00:13,060
the sexiest man in the world.
5
00:00:13,060 --> 00:00:16,020
What I need is a really
great pop music program.
6
00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:16,260
What I need is a really
Well, Countdown's on.
7
00:00:16,260 --> 00:00:17,620
Well, Countdown's on.
8
00:00:17,620 --> 00:00:19,620
No, I said a really great
pop music program.
9
00:00:19,620 --> 00:00:21,260
Ah, Rik, let's not be rude.
We're guests in this country.
10
00:00:21,260 --> 00:00:21,500
Ah, Rik, let's not be rude.
You mustn't be rude.
11
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:22,900
You mustn't be rude.
12
00:00:22,900 --> 00:00:24,540
I can't help it.
I'm a natural revolutionary.
13
00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:26,060
I'm going to do
something rude now.
14
00:00:26,060 --> 00:00:26,300
I'm going to do

15

(BLOWING RASPBERRY)
16
00:00:27,540 --> 00:00:27,780
Fantastically rude,
(BLOWING RASPBERRY)
17
00:00:27,780 --> 00:00:29,100
Fantastically rude,
I think you'll agree.
18
00:00:29,100 --> 00:00:29,340
Fantastically rude,
Ladies and gentlemen, Countdown.
19
00:00:29,340 --> 00:00:31,380
Ladies and gentlemen, Countdown.
20
00:00:31,380 --> 00:00:34,060

# Countdown,
Countdown
22
00:00:37,100 --> 00:00:40,020
ANNOUNCER: Welcome
to Classic Countdown, 1986.
23
00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:40,260
ANNOUNCER: Welcome
# Countdown!
24
00:00:40,260 --> 00:00:41,620
# Countdown!
25
00:00:43,020 --> 00:00:45,260
DEB: In 1986,
we looked to the stars.
26
00:00:46,660 --> 00:00:49,020
Not those stars,
as big as they were that year.
27
00:00:49,020 --> 00:00:52,620
It was Halley's Comet doing
its once in a lifetime drive-by
28
00:00:52,620 --> 00:00:54,740
that gave us all
an excuse to stay up late.
29
00:00:56,220 --> 00:00:59,380
In '86, it looked
like we might all get along.
30
00:00:59,380 --> 00:01:01,900
Ice dancers Torvill and Dean
were a global love story,
31
00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:04,420
and the growing talks
between Regan and Gorbachev
32
00:01:04,420 --> 00:01:04,660
and the growing talks
set the Cold War thawing.
33
00:01:04,660 --> 00:01:07,140
set the Cold War thawing.
34
00:01:07,140 --> 00:01:07,380
Aussie icon, Paul Hogan,
set the Cold War thawing.
35
00:01:07,380 --> 00:01:10,100
Aussie icon, Paul Hogan,
stole America's hearts.
36
00:01:10,100 --> 00:01:12,340
Fair suck
on the sauce bottle, boys.
37
00:01:12,340 --> 00:01:15,380
And someone stole
a priceless work of art.
38
00:01:15,380 --> 00:01:18,700
It is going to be bolted to the wall
and placed behind glass.
39
00:01:18,700 --> 00:01:20,260
If you want to take
the painting next time,
40
00:01:20,260 --> 00:01:22,780
you will have to take the entire
air conditioning duct.
41
00:01:22,780 --> 00:01:25,020
The "greed is good" culture was
reaching its peak.
42
00:01:27,180 --> 00:01:30,140
# Let's go to paradise
43
00:01:30,140 --> 00:01:32,220
Some bands were looking
for a good time.
44
00:01:32,220 --> 00:01:32,460
# Let's go to paradise
for a good time.
45
00:01:32,460 --> 00:01:34,860
# Let's go to paradise
46
00:01:34,860 --> 00:01:35,060
# Let's go to paradise
# Let's go to paradise
47
00:01:35,060 --> 00:01:38,340
# Let's go to paradise
48
00:01:38,340 --> 00:01:40,220
# They can go to hell. #
49
00:01:41,260 --> 00:01:43,180
# Something is missing
50
00:01:43,180 --> 00:01:45,100
# Mr Big
51
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:47,900
Other bands were
looking for answers.
52
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:48,140
Other bands were
looking for answers.
# Something is missing
53
00:01:48,140 --> 00:01:50,420
# Something is missing
54
00:01:50,420 --> 00:01:52,300
# Mr Big. #
55
00:01:55,940 --> 00:01:58,740
But after the boom
comes the inevitable crash
56
00:01:58,740 --> 00:02:01,100
and soon we would be throwing our
hands up in the air.
57
00:02:10,700 --> 00:02:12,900
# Na-na-na-na-na-na
58
00:02:14,340 --> 00:02:16,860

00:02:18,460 --> 00:02:20,980
# Sip in the shadow, babe
60
00:02:20,980 --> 00:02:25,020
# And enjoy the sunny day
61
00:02:25,020 --> 00:02:27,940
# The weather is changeable
62
00:02:27,940 --> 00:02:30,420
# Run around the world
63
00:02:30,420 --> 00:02:32,460
# Ships go by
64
00:02:32,460 --> 00:02:35,020
# My pokey beach
65
00:02:35,020 --> 00:02:38,060
# I'm waving as they pass me by
66
00:02:38,060 --> 00:02:40,980
# If you are sinking
67
00:02:40,980 --> 00:02:43,460

# Now count me in on this
75
00:03:01,260 --> 00:03:01,500
# Let's be swept
# Now count me in on this
76
00:03:01,500 --> 00:03:04,940
# Let's be swept
right out to sea
77
00:03:04,940 --> 00:03:05,180
# The current is dangerous
# Let's be swept
right out to sea
78
00:03:05,180 --> 00:03:07,460
# The current is dangerous
79
00:03:07,460 --> 00:03:10,300
# They're sick
of backyard pools
80
00:03:10,300 --> 00:03:10,540
# They're killing time
of backyard pools
81
00:03:10,540 --> 00:03:12,540
# They're killing time
82
00:03:12,540 --> 00:03:14,300
# They won't learn to swim
83
00:03:14,300 --> 00:03:18,060
# Well, I'd have fun
on my back hook
84
00:03:18,060 --> 00:03:18,300
# Well, I'd have fun
on my back hook
# If you are sinking
85
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:20,820
# If you are sinking

(CHEERING)
121
00:05:31,580 --> 00:05:35,300
# Now I'm only hoping
that I'm living in a dream
122
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:38,540
DEB: In 1986, there was
a formula for chart success.
123
00:05:38,540 --> 00:05:40,780
# It's just a dream
124
00:05:40,780 --> 00:05:43,500
Start with electronic drums
and optional keytar...
125
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:45,260
# It's strange how
it seems to be different
126
00:05:45,260 --> 00:05:45,500
# It's strange how
# When you're living in a dream
127
00:05:45,500 --> 00:05:47,300
# When you're living in a dream
128
00:05:49,940 --> 00:05:52,260
# It's strange how things seem to be
different

00:05:52,260 --> 00:05:54,340
# When you're living
in a dream. #
130
00:05:57,860 --> 00:05:59,700
..and an anthemic melody...
131
00:05:59,700 --> 00:06:01,900
# Everybody say
132
00:06:01,900 --> 00:06:04,140
# Amen
133
00:06:04,140 --> 00:06:08,220
# These are the dreams
of ordinary men
134
00:06:08,220 --> 00:06:11,900
# This is the world
that we'll be living in
135
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:15,100
# Out of the dreams
of ordinary men. #
136
00:06:19,900 --> 00:06:22,420
..and a big, big keyboard sound.
137
00:06:27,260 --> 00:06:31,100
# Lots of cash, limousines
138
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:31,340
# Big time plans
# Lots of cash, limousines
139
00:06:31,340 --> 00:06:34,860
# Big time plans
and big time dreams. #
140
00:06:34,860 --> 00:06:37,780
One English band perfectly combined
all these elements
141
00:06:37,780 --> 00:06:40,580
in a memorable Countdown
'86 performance.
142
00:07:02,460 --> 00:07:05,900
# Gotta get a message
to the stars above
143
00:07:05,900 --> 00:07:09,540
# Like radios in heaven
hearing just enough
144
00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:13,500
# And every single teardrop along
the way
145
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:17,180
# We'll put them in our pockets
for a rainy day
146
00:07:17,180 --> 00:07:20,860
# But here we are in trouble like we
always are
147
00:07:20,860 --> 00:07:24,700
# Just praying for a miracle,
and reaching for stars

00:07:24,700 --> 00:07:24,940
# Just praying for a miracle,
# We love you
149

00:07:28,540 --> 00:07:32,300
# Would die for you
151
00:07:32,300 --> 00:07:36,020
# We need you

# Every day
153
00:07:45,140 --> 00:07:48,780
# We got to get a message
to the promised land
154
00:07:48,780 --> 00:07:52,820
# Like semaphores in motion
so they'll understand
155
00:07:52,820 --> 00:07:56,300
# But every single vision
that we saw today
156
00:07:56,300 --> 00:07:56,580
# But every single vision
that we saw today
# We didn't quite believe it
in the usual way
157
00:07:56,580 --> 00:07:59,780
# We didn't quite believe it
in the usual way
158
00:07:59,780 --> 00:08:03,940
# Yet here we are in heaven,
who could want for more?
159
00:08:03,940 --> 00:08:07,580
# We always end up getting
what we're asking for
160
00:08:07,580 --> 00:08:07,820
# We always end up getting

161
00:08:07,820 --> 00:08:10,500
# We love you
162
00:08:11,660 --> 00:08:15,100

# Oh, we love you
166
00:08:26,420 --> 00:08:29,980
# Wouldn't leave you
167
00:08:29,980 --> 00:08:33,660
# We miss you
168
00:08:33,660 --> 00:08:36,300
# Far away
169
00:08:50,300 --> 00:08:54,100
# It's just another promise like
we've heard before
170
00:08:54,100 --> 00:09:01,940
# We're never really knowing
what we're fighting for
171
00:09:12,820 --> 00:09:16,740
# We love you
172
00:09:16,740 --> 00:09:20,060
# Would die for you
173
00:09:20,060 --> 00:09:24,020

Kim Wilde went back to the future,

00:16:11,980 --> 00:16:13,620
The Rolling Stones,
290
00:16:13,620 --> 00:16:17,500
released a new album,
Dirty Work, after a long break.
291
00:16:17,500 --> 00:16:17,740
released a new album,
Molly was there to record

Molly was there to record
293
00:16:18,780 --> 00:16:21,300
a fascinating sequence
of interviews.
294
00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:21,580
How much did you want
to do this album?
a fascinating sequence
of interviews.
295
00:16:21,580 --> 00:16:23,900
How much did you want
to do this album?
296
00:16:25,500 --> 00:16:26,860
How much did I want to do it?
297
00:16:26,860 --> 00:16:27,060
How much did I want to do it?
Um, this much.
298
00:16:27,060 --> 00:16:28,940
Um, this much.
299
00:16:32,140 --> 00:16:34,540
Or was it this much?
300
00:16:34,540 --> 00:16:37,420
I mean, I was there, I did it.
301
00:16:37,420 --> 00:16:38,940
I was really looking
forward to doing it.
302
00:16:38,940 --> 00:16:42,700
In fact, it was really
a bit long in the making.
303
00:16:42,700 --> 00:16:44,140
It wasn't always that great fun.
304
00:16:44,140 --> 00:16:46,780
But, I mean, I think
the actual album is really good.
305
00:16:46,780 --> 00:16:47,020
But, I mean, I think
Right now, you live a man with...
306
00:16:47,020 --> 00:16:51,780
Right now, you live a man with...
307
00:16:51,780 --> 00:16:55,260
It's almost like Joseph
with his coat, you know?
308
00:16:55,260 --> 00:16:57,500
You have this coat, that coat,
etcetera, etcetera.
309
00:16:57,500 --> 00:16:59,940
Nonetheless, there's always going to
be The Rolling Stones
310
00:16:59,940 --> 00:17:00,180
Nonetheless, there's always going to
as long as...
311
00:17:00,180 --> 00:17:01,860
as long as...
312
00:17:01,860 --> 00:17:04,380
As long as pop music
will continue.
313
00:17:04,380 --> 00:17:04,620
As long as pop music
Yeah, exactly.
314
00:17:04,620 --> 00:17:05,860
Yeah, exactly.
315
00:17:05,860 --> 00:17:06,100
How hard was it
to do the album?
Yeah, exactly.
316
00:17:06,100 --> 00:17:09,420
How hard was it
to do the album?
317
00:17:09,420 --> 00:17:09,660
I think it was quite hard
to do the album?
318
00:17:09,660 --> 00:17:11,980
I think it was quite hard
319
00:17:11,980 --> 00:17:14,020
because we spent longer getting into
it this time, didn't we?
320
00:17:14,020 --> 00:17:14,300
because we spent longer getting into
it this time, didn't we?
Sort of playing again because
we hadn't played for four years.
321
00:17:14,300 --> 00:17:17,020
Sort of playing again because
we hadn't played for four years.
322
00:17:17,020 --> 00:17:19,020
But it was fun getting
our chops back together again.
323
00:17:19,020 --> 00:17:22,300
It usually takes,
like, ten days, two weeks,
324
00:17:22,300 --> 00:17:22,540
It usually takes,
to sort of get back into it
325
00:17:22,540 --> 00:17:24,020
to sort of get back into it
326
00:17:24,020 --> 00:17:26,020
and it took about a month, didn't it,
really, this time?
327
00:17:26,020 --> 00:17:28,860
That was the only thing,
just to get warmed up.
328
00:17:28,860 --> 00:17:30,220
Well, if we go over
the clubs and things
329
00:17:30,220 --> 00:17:31,700
and finally get down
to the studio,
330
00:17:31,700 --> 00:17:31,940
and finally get down
it took about a month, yeah.
331
00:17:31,940 --> 00:17:32,980
it took about a month, yeah.
332
00:17:32,980 --> 00:17:34,900
(LAUGHS)
333
00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:35,140
It was good fun,
(LAUGHS)
334
00:17:35,140 --> 00:17:36,300
It was good fun,
though, wasn't it?
335
00:17:36,300 --> 00:17:36,540
It was good fun,
Just getting back together.
336
00:17:36,540 --> 00:17:37,900
Just getting back together.
337
00:17:37,900 --> 00:17:38,140
You obviously love
rock'n'roll to the hilt.
Just getting back together.
338
00:17:38,140 --> 00:17:40,420
You obviously love
rock'n'roll to the hilt.
339
00:17:40,420 --> 00:17:43,020
I do.
340
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:44,980
Why?
341
00:17:44,980 --> 00:17:47,700
If I knew that, I mean,
342
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:50,500
that's one of the things
I ask myself occasionally, why?
343
00:17:52,460 --> 00:17:53,740
One minute, it wasn't there,
344
00:17:53,740 --> 00:17:56,220
you know,
living in England, BBC.
345
00:17:56,220 --> 00:17:59,380
And one minute it was, "How much is
that doggy in the window?"
346
00:17:59,380 --> 00:18:01,660
And then you give me
Heartbreak Hotel, baby,
347
00:18:01,660 --> 00:18:01,900
And then you give me
and I know what I like.
348
00:18:01,900 --> 00:18:03,180
and I know what I like.
349
00:18:03,180 --> 00:18:03,420
And then take some of those
and I know what I like.
350
00:18:03,420 --> 00:18:06,060
And then take some of those
awful cliches, you know?
351
00:18:06,060 --> 00:18:06,300
And then take some of those
Like, a lot of cliches,
352
00:18:06,300 --> 00:18:07,700
Like, a lot of cliches,
353
00:18:07,700 --> 00:18:09,780
there's always an element
of truth in them.
354
00:18:12,700 --> 00:18:14,900
The more you find out,
355
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:16,420
the less you realise you know,
356
00:18:16,420 --> 00:18:18,180
and it's just fascinating.
357
00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:19,700
It's so intriguing to me.
358
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:21,980
And especially
with the Stones now,
359
00:18:21,980 --> 00:18:24,340
because we're probably
in a position
360
00:18:24,340 --> 00:18:24,580
because we're probably
to make more than anybody else.
361
00:18:24,580 --> 00:18:26,900
to make more than anybody else.
362
00:18:26,900 --> 00:18:29,580
We're still together
to make the thing grow up.
363
00:18:30,860 --> 00:18:32,860
Hi, we're INXS.
364
00:18:33,820 --> 00:18:36,340
And we're on Countdown in '86.
365
00:18:38,500 --> 00:18:41,700
(ALL LAUGH)
DIRECTOR: That's it.
366
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:43,220
DEB: Aussies were
hitting it big too.
367
00:18:43,220 --> 00:18:46,300
INXS had taken
the UK and US by storm.
368
00:18:47,740 --> 00:18:50,860
At home, the local acts were also
making noise.
369
00:18:53,660 --> 00:18:55,380
The Australian-made concert series
370
00:18:55,380 --> 00:18:58,140
featuring Barnsy, Divinyls, Models,
and a host of others,
371
00:18:58,140 --> 00:19:00,460
were set up to provide
an alternative
372
00:19:00,460 --> 00:19:01,740
to the big international tours.
373
00:19:01,740 --> 00:19:03,780
# I've got
to let it loose tonight
374
00:19:03,780 --> 00:19:04,020
# I've got
# Baby, now
375
00:19:04,020 --> 00:19:06,300
# Baby, now
376
00:19:06,300 --> 00:19:08,100
# I know you. #
377
00:19:08,100 --> 00:19:08,340
Jimmy, welcome to the program.
Yep, it's great to be here.
# I know you. #
378
00:19:08,340 --> 00:19:10,060
Jimmy, welcome to the program.
Yep, it's great to be here.
379
00:19:10,060 --> 00:19:11,900
Australian Made tour. It's going to
be something else.
380
00:19:11,900 --> 00:19:13,580
Yeah, it should be a killer,
I think.
381
00:19:13,580 --> 00:19:13,860
Yeah, it should be a killer,
I think.
And Hobart must be delighted because
they always say
382
00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:15,420
And Hobart must be delighted because
they always say
383
00:19:15,420 --> 00:19:17,580
they miss out on everything,
and it kicks off from there
384
00:19:17,580 --> 00:19:18,860
on the 27th.
Starts off from there.
385
00:19:18,860 --> 00:19:20,380
Yeah, yeah.
And right around the country.
386
00:19:20,380 --> 00:19:20,620
Yeah, yeah.
Yes.
387
00:19:20,620 --> 00:19:22,060
Yes.
388
00:19:22,060 --> 00:19:23,860
I think all the bands
are just ready to get out
389
00:19:23,860 --> 00:19:24,980
and have a good time
and celebrate,
390
00:19:24,980 --> 00:19:27,260
speaking of good times.
Yeah, exactly.
391
00:19:30,580 --> 00:19:32,020
During this period,
some great songs
392
00:19:32,020 --> 00:19:32,260
were written about Australia,
some great songs
393
00:19:32,260 --> 00:19:33,340
were written about Australia,
394
00:19:33,340 --> 00:19:33,580
were written about Australia,
by GANGgajang.
395
00:19:33,580 --> 00:19:35,500
including this classic
by GANGgajang.
396
00:19:40,380 --> 00:19:42,740
# I think I hear
the sounds of then
397
00:19:42,740 --> 00:19:42,980
# I think I hear
# And people talking
398
00:19:42,980 --> 00:19:44,500
# And people talking

00:19:44,500 --> 00:19:44,740

400
00:19:44,740 --> 00:19:48,220
# The scenes recalled
by minute movement
401
00:19:48,220 --> 00:19:48,460

402
00:19:48,460 --> 00:19:50,100

403
00:19:50,100 --> 00:19:51,980

404

406
00:19:55,780 --> 00:19:56,020
# To lie in sweat
# That certain smell
407
00:19:56,020 --> 00:19:59,540
# To lie in sweat
on familiar sheets
408
00:19:59,540 --> 00:20:03,100

on financed beds
409
00:20:03,100 --> 00:20:06,420

00:20:10,420 --> 00:20:14,020

for local musicians
459
00:23:27,380 --> 00:23:29,500
to hone
their performance skills.
460
00:23:29,500 --> 00:23:31,820

00:26:50,260 --> 00:26:52,860
# Then your mind
just starts to feel the heat. #
536
00:26:54,660 --> 00:26:58,020
And all the new hairstyles
and fashions were on display.
537

This performance by White Xmas
is a time capsule
546
00:27:30,620 --> 00:27:32,940
of what it was like to be
in a club at the time -
547
00:27:32,940 --> 00:27:35,220
what we wore,
and how we danced.
548
00:27:35,220 --> 00:27:35,460

# Diamonds are forever
550
00:27:39,220 --> 00:27:41,980
# But pearls are dreams
551
00:27:42,940 --> 00:27:46,420
# I say this dream is swimming
552
00:27:46,420 --> 00:27:50,460
# Is this an ocean
I'm drowning in?
553
00:27:50,460 --> 00:27:53,740
# We'll take these pearls
from our oysters
554
00:27:53,740 --> 00:27:53,980
# We'll take these pearls
# I dream the last dream
555
00:27:53,980 --> 00:27:56,820

556
00:27:58,300 --> 00:28:00,940

in my sexuality. #
558

Ow!
559
00:28:06,380 --> 00:28:08,180
Ow!

One club favourite at the time
was Wa Wa Nee,
561
00:28:12,860 --> 00:28:15,660

virtuoso, Paul Gray.

to play guitar pop

No, I didn't.

Good to see you.

00:37:34,220 --> 00:37:35,900
So, now, listen, first of all,
700
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:39,380
let's talk about
the film, Highlander.
701
00:37:39,380 --> 00:37:39,660
let's talk about
the film, Highlander.
Looks like one
of my clips coming in.
702
00:37:39,660 --> 00:37:41,180
Looks like one
of my clips coming in.
703
00:37:41,180 --> 00:37:43,060
One of your effects,
We'll have ballet dancers next.
704
00:37:43,060 --> 00:37:45,340
So anyway. Yeah, Highlander's
opened this week,
705
00:37:45,340 --> 00:37:45,580
So anyway. Yeah, Highlander's
and it's...
706
00:37:45,580 --> 00:37:47,180
and it's...
707
00:37:47,180 --> 00:37:47,420
..ah...
and it's...
708
00:37:47,420 --> 00:37:48,900
..ah...
Right.
709
00:37:48,900 --> 00:37:51,220
Now, listen, just before I go,
I've got to tell you.
710
00:37:51,220 --> 00:37:53,740
I went to Bali
for the last part of my trip,
711
00:37:53,740 --> 00:37:56,540
and I went into
the cassette stores there.
712
00:37:56,540 --> 00:37:56,780
and I went into
MAN: Yes?
713
00:37:56,780 --> 00:37:58,420
MAN: Yes?
714
00:37:58,420 --> 00:37:58,660
Well, over in Indonesia,
MAN: Yes?
715
00:37:58,660 --> 00:38:01,340
Well, over in Indonesia,
they have sort of this bootleg thing
716
00:38:01,340 --> 00:38:03,660
that we don't all agree on,
and guess what?
717
00:38:03,660 --> 00:38:03,900
that we don't all agree on,
What?
718
00:38:03,900 --> 00:38:05,140
What?
719
00:38:05,140 --> 00:38:07,100
Apparently,
out on the sale this week,
720
00:38:07,100 --> 00:38:08,940
and we can have a close-up of this,
721

the Countdown Power Love Songs
722
00:38:12,620 --> 00:38:13,860
and the Countdown Charts.
723
00:38:13,860 --> 00:38:15,220
So there you go.
724
00:38:15,220 --> 00:38:16,620
In Bali, it's a really big thing.
725
00:38:16,620 --> 00:38:16,860
I've been
In Bali, it's a really big thing.
726
00:38:16,860 --> 00:38:17,980

very worried about it.

How do you feel
after 500 shows?
730
00:38:20,380 --> 00:38:21,660
How do you feel
after 500 shows?
731
00:38:21,660 --> 00:38:24,700
I feel about 500,
you're right.
732
00:38:24,700 --> 00:38:26,380
Well, here's the cake, Molly.
733
00:38:26,380 --> 00:38:28,220
Isn't that wonderful?
734
00:38:28,220 --> 00:38:30,860
It is a lovely cake and here it is
all for you, especially.
735
00:38:30,860 --> 00:38:33,140
So, I would just simply
like to thank...
736
00:38:33,140 --> 00:38:34,940
There's only five candles there, one
for each 100.
737
00:38:36,660 --> 00:38:38,380
There you go.
At least I can do that.
738
00:38:38,380 --> 00:38:38,620
There you go.
The thing with that film,
739
00:38:38,620 --> 00:38:40,860
The thing with that film,
740
00:38:40,860 --> 00:38:45,140
some people can accuse you of
making long rock video clips.
741
00:38:45,140 --> 00:38:47,580
With this,
I feel that it's not true.
742
00:38:47,580 --> 00:38:49,780
OK, so there is the Australian
top five for this week.
743
00:38:49,780 --> 00:38:52,500
And as I say, Uncanny X-Men,
I Am, has been dropped
744
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:52,740
And as I say, Uncanny X-Men,
by a lot of radio stations.
745
00:38:52,740 --> 00:38:53,980
by a lot of radio stations.
746
00:38:53,980 --> 00:38:55,460
I think it's quite ridiculous.
747
00:38:55,460 --> 00:38:57,380
I think they're trying
to protect their own image
748
00:38:57,380 --> 00:39:00,460
and not worrying about the stake of
what you're doing
749
00:39:00,460 --> 00:39:02,620
to an Australian group.
Quite ridiculous.
750

it's been nice having you all.

00:44:25,500 --> 00:44:25,780
If I'm having to worry
about how I look,
As usual, Molly cornered them
for Countdown.
868
00:44:25,780 --> 00:44:28,340
If I'm having to worry
about how I look,
869
00:44:28,340 --> 00:44:31,140
and how, you know,
if I'm getting older,
870
00:44:31,140 --> 00:44:34,260
or if, you know,
I'm not 95 pounds.
871
00:44:34,260 --> 00:44:34,500
or if, you know,
I'm not 95 pounds.
If I have to worry about that,
872
00:44:34,500 --> 00:44:35,980
If I have to worry about that,
873
00:44:35,980 --> 00:44:38,460
it takes away from my being
a rock'n'roll singer,
874
00:44:38,460 --> 00:44:40,980
and that's what I am.
875
00:44:40,980 --> 00:44:42,580
So that bothers me.
876
00:44:42,580 --> 00:44:46,780
And for me also to be told what to
say is really hard.
877
00:44:46,780 --> 00:44:47,060
Well, the biggest drive to get me to
go out on a solo career
And for me also to be told what to
say is really hard.
878
00:44:47,060 --> 00:44:50,900
Well, the biggest drive to get me to
go out on a solo career
879
00:44:50,900 --> 00:44:53,900
was I want to travel,
and you're all invited.
880
00:44:53,900 --> 00:44:55,460
Everybody's got to go, you know?
881
00:44:55,460 --> 00:44:57,580
I always saw my career
in rock and roll
882
00:44:57,580 --> 00:44:57,860
I always saw my career
in rock and roll
like it was a big parade,
you know?
883
00:44:57,860 --> 00:44:59,380
like it was a big parade,
you know?
884
00:44:59,380 --> 00:45:02,660
And the parade's no good
unless it goes somewhere.
885
00:45:02,660 --> 00:45:06,580
It's been since 1979
since I went to Japan.
886
00:45:06,580 --> 00:45:08,460
Can't get the guys on the plane.
887
00:45:08,460 --> 00:45:09,940
Never been to Australia.
888
00:45:09,940 --> 00:45:11,860
Can't get the guys on the plane.
889
00:45:11,860 --> 00:45:13,500
And there's a whole
lot of the rest
890
00:45:13,500 --> 00:45:15,820
of the world to deal with too.
891
00:45:15,820 --> 00:45:18,260
That, and this is the '80s, man.
892
00:45:18,260 --> 00:45:19,740
This is the roaring '80s.
893
00:45:19,740 --> 00:45:22,300
So it's not just make a record.
894
00:45:22,300 --> 00:45:24,700
That's first.
First, you make the music.
895
00:45:24,700 --> 00:45:26,140
First, you make the album.
896
00:45:26,140 --> 00:45:28,860
But then you got the radio
and the video and the interview
897
00:45:28,860 --> 00:45:30,780
and the me and you
and the live show
898
00:45:30,780 --> 00:45:32,460
and the tour
and etcetera, etcetera.
899
00:45:32,460 --> 00:45:34,860
I want to do it all.
900
00:45:34,860 --> 00:45:36,660
Sign me up.
901
00:45:36,660 --> 00:45:36,900
IAN: Putting these musicians
together that you wanted,
Sign me up.
902
00:45:36,900 --> 00:45:39,180
IAN: Putting these musicians
together that you wanted,
903
00:45:39,180 --> 00:45:42,380
that you may, in some circles,
904
00:45:42,380 --> 00:45:44,420
be looked at as a racist.
905
00:45:45,980 --> 00:45:49,220
I have been criticised
by certain individuals...
906
00:45:50,940 --> 00:45:55,980
..saying things like I tainted
the purity of black music.
907
00:45:55,980 --> 00:45:58,620
I think that's correct.
908
00:45:58,620 --> 00:46:02,500
My answer to that is
the South African government
909
00:46:02,500 --> 00:46:05,740
uses similar arguments
to defend apartheid.
910
00:46:05,740 --> 00:46:08,540
In other words,
what these people are saying
911
00:46:08,540 --> 00:46:10,780
is absolute bullshit.
912
00:46:10,780 --> 00:46:13,020
DEB: Far from going solo,
some younger musos
913
00:46:13,020 --> 00:46:15,900
knew there'd always
be strength in numbers.
914
00:46:15,900 --> 00:46:16,180
Hunters and Collectors came from
a song of that name
knew there'd always
be strength in numbers.
915
00:46:16,180 --> 00:46:20,540
Hunters and Collectors came from
a song of that name
916
00:46:20,540 --> 00:46:23,500
by a German band called Can
from the early '70s.
917
00:46:23,500 --> 00:46:23,780
by a German band called Can
from the early '70s.
They played really long
rhythmical-style songs,
918
00:46:23,780 --> 00:46:27,500
They played really long
rhythmical-style songs,
919
00:46:27,500 --> 00:46:30,340
which were similar
to the way we used to play
920
00:46:30,340 --> 00:46:30,580
which were similar
two or three years ago.
921
00:46:30,580 --> 00:46:32,020
two or three years ago.
922
00:46:32,020 --> 00:46:34,820
But the name stuck
because it's a good name.
923
00:46:34,820 --> 00:46:37,900
It also gives you a sense of a tribe
or a community of people
924
00:46:37,900 --> 00:46:38,140
It also gives you a sense of a tribe
that work together on something,
925
00:46:38,140 --> 00:46:40,180
that work together on something,
926
00:46:40,180 --> 00:46:41,940
which is sort
of what we're like.
927
00:46:41,940 --> 00:46:42,180
which is sort
# Well
928
00:46:42,180 --> 00:46:43,500
# Well

00:46:43,500 --> 00:46:43,740
# Just the other night,
# Well

00:46:43,740 --> 00:46:45,980
# Just the other night,
I come home
931
00:46:45,980 --> 00:46:50,580
# After three months
of constant grind and travel
932
00:46:50,580 --> 00:46:50,820
# And I went snivelling
of constant grind and travel
933
00:46:50,820 --> 00:46:52,260
# And I went snivelling
934
00:46:52,260 --> 00:46:55,500
# I went crawling around
to my girlfriend's house
935
00:46:55,500 --> 00:46:55,780
# I went crawling around
to my girlfriend's house
# And she came down
hard upon me
936
00:46:55,780 --> 00:46:58,860
# And she came down
hard upon me
937
00:46:58,860 --> 00:47:01,540
# And she ground her finger
into my breast bone
938
00:47:02,460 --> 00:47:05,620
# And she said
939
00:47:05,620 --> 00:47:08,340
# She said
940
00:47:08,340 --> 00:47:10,020
# You don't make me feel
941
00:47:10,020 --> 00:47:12,620
# Like I'm a woman anymore
942
00:47:15,740 --> 00:47:17,500
# And you don't make me feel
943
00:47:17,500 --> 00:47:20,380

00:47:27,900 --> 00:47:31,100
# I know it's been a long time
948
00:47:33,100 --> 00:47:37,060
# Seems like it's
been going on forever
949
00:47:37,060 --> 00:47:37,300
# Seems like it's
# And my heart
950
00:47:37,300 --> 00:47:39,340
# And my heart
951
00:47:39,340 --> 00:47:40,980
# My heart is beating
952
00:47:40,980 --> 00:47:42,980
# Too big
953
00:47:45,300 --> 00:47:49,580
# It's beating too big for the
space that's meant to hold it
954

Rick, do your Molly Meldrum

Right!
My Molly Meldrum impression!

G'day!

DEB: The 1986 charts

that a novelty song

990

Very stupid hat.

I'll get a tan, look.
I'm white.

Well, you've got summer here.

Uh-huh?
You'll get your hat wet.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Right, now, true confessions.
1010
00:50:38,100 --> 00:50:39,500
Like other Brits in '86,
1011
00:50:39,500 --> 00:50:42,420
Bananarama would find success with a
'60s pop cover.

Bananarama would find success with a
'60s pop cover.
In the last couple of years,

In the last couple of years,
1014
00:50:44,060 --> 00:50:46,460
we've been very slow to do Venus,
1015
00:50:46,460 --> 00:50:50,980
simply because we got the unfair tag
in British press
1016
00:50:50,980 --> 00:50:54,420
of being a band that did cover
versions and nothing else.
1017
00:50:54,420 --> 00:50:56,980
But we've written three albums of
our own stuff now.
1018
00:50:56,980 --> 00:50:59,860
We've had Cruel Summer, Robert
De Niro, were hits everywhere.
1019
00:50:59,860 --> 00:51:01,740
And we wrote those,
so, you know,
1020
00:51:01,740 --> 00:51:03,980
I think we can get away with it now.
1021
00:51:03,980 --> 00:51:06,020
Pseudo Echo's disco cover
of Funky Town
