I thought the announcer bloke said either "Bernie" or "Barney"...
Cheers for digging those out Christopher![]()
Thieves on TOTP is one of my all time fave appearnces by them on that show.Great to see it in colour again.My old copy on VHS has got knackered over the years and is now in black and white![]()
Saw HTS at the time but didnt grab it on to tape :\ohwell: .Good to see that one again,
I have True Faith @ TOTP on tape in still good condition.They also did it on an old ITV rival show to TOTP called The Roxy.Barney was wearing his DON'T DO DRUGS tshirt in that one

edit: actually just watching True Faith it's the same presenter ,Gary Davies, but it's a diffrent introduction from the clip i have![]()
Maybe the performance got a repeat a few weeks after the original showing and was introduced a second time by Davies
Thieves like us... One of my favourites ever. Great song!!! And great Hooky's performance!!!

Bernard surely didn't! That "sequencer up on stage, it's not there!" is priceless...
Hooky did look a bit spazzy on the drumpads on that performance (sorry Jack:) ) and did he take soemone's eye out when he chucked the sticks??
Thanks! But where is that Other Two song from? And it's not Gillian who sings it. That's weird. Any light on that please?

Is it not You Can Fly?![]()
Class!!
THAT'S how you perform True Faith! I would love to have some of those early TOTP clips and live nuggets on DVD ![]()
Edit: Did they really begin work on Technique as early as 1987? ![]()

It's from The Tube (old 80s UK TV music show) at The Hacienda ,January 1984.
I don't recall Confusion from the show though!!

I bet you love that Electronic video that is also on yourtube.com, Getting Away With It. ;)
Holy crap!!!
I neglected to hit the Here To Stay link. I remember a post being on here a while back. If i'm not mistaken the general response was because it was "too" technical. They should have incorporated this song into their gigs. It truely is an awesome song!!

Of course I love Electronic...especially the ones where they collaborated with Neil...
(I'm a huge New Order, Electronic, Pet Shop Boys and Depeche Mode fan, but I also listen to Monaco and Joy Division too.)![]()
It's pretty unexciting, HTS. A standard mime on TOTP. Give me Barney's pitch wavering and live instruments on Thieves Like Us any day.
Thanks for the links everyone.
Don't ever remember seeing Electronic - I don't know if their songs ever made it to our shores but the song Getting Away with it sounded really familiar. Don't know if I had heard it before or if is sounded like another song. Can anyone tell me
if their songs were released here in Oz?
