    One of the best performances I have ever seen on Top of the Pops, that woman Carol Kenyan, was just sensational.

    After 40 years it’s still a classic tune better than today’s. The music of today wouldn’t be played or listened to in another 40 years.

      I made a poem for ya all the years ago
      "Sh*t shot Masson
      Missed the penalty
      And Scotland lost 1-3. Then they drew 1-1, Iran scored an own goal. They weren't even thru when they won 3-2, now Masson's on the dole!"

    Carol Kenyan is a goddess, can't imagine why she didn't become a bigger star. Love the contrast in look between her and Glenn Gregory, very sexy couple. Note he is wearing her watch, because she removed it before the recording, feeling it didn't go with her outfit. What a gentleman!

    This is what started it with me. I’m 51. I saw this on top of the pops and that was it. Heaven 17 were my band. Nobody else’s. I own over 200 pieces of work by this band. I’ve made it my life’s work to collect anything I can. God knows how many copies of temptation I’ve got on cassette vinyl cd. On my wall in my dining room I’ve a poster of the penthouse and pavement tour from Germany. Flanked by 2 pictures of martyn and Greg signed. I’m obsessive. Never met any of the 3. But have had a couple of emails with martyn. And don’t even get me started on B.E.F.

    I've never been closer
    I tried to understand
    That certain feeling
    Carved by another's hand, no
    But it's too late to hesitate
    We can't keep on living like this
    Leave no track
    Don't look back
    temptation
    (Keep climbin' higher and higher) temptation
    (Adorable creatures) temptation
    (With unacceptable features) temptation
    (Trouble is coming) temptation
    (It's just the high cost of loving) temptation
    (You can take it or leave it) temptation
    (But you'd better believe it)
    You've got to make me an offer
    That cannot be ignored
    So let's head for home now
    Everything I have is yours, oh
    Step by step, and day by day
    Every second counts, I can't break away
    Leave no trace
    Hide your face

      Would it have been due to Union / ToTP BBC rules that vocalists had to be as per the record? I remember reading that bands had to 'record' a live version on the day of the broadcast on the charade that it was to be used, everyone got paid but most of the time the BBC just used the official track on the show.
