    An excellent song by Marianne Faithfull. It should have been a massive hit.

    Marianne Faithfull's appearance on this TOTP sent her record immediately plunging the charts from it's modest No48 this week to 55 and gone. Some TOTP effect, blowing the myth apart nicely.

    Arghhh and he got the title wrong - it's Ballad, not Eyes.

    I'd not noticed that before, but now you mention it - yes she does. And just as lovely looking too.

    Marianne Faithful. Very nice to look at but can't stand her voice.

    Just "Walking" now. He really likes to adapt the titles and names of the groups doesn't he!

    Is it "the eyes" or "the ballad" of Lucy Jordan?

    Romana II in 1979. One of my earliest crushes.

    Although she never posed nude with a Dalek like Katy, so you may have a point.

    I owned 'Walking On The Moon' on 12", I loved it at the time, not too bad now.

    Cape Canaveral seemed very far and distant then, never thought that I would go there in the 90s.

    Grr!

    Anyone else watching on Virgin Media tonight? BBC4 showing as 'off air' on my TiVo 😡 😡
    It's recorded that caption, not the show! It better fix itself for the repeat. All other channels are fine which is even more annoying! 😡

    Oh I don't know, they even seemed a bit smug by this song. I always thought they were a bit overrated tbh
