his job as a roving reporter.
287
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:31,640
Well, here we are.
288
00:14:31,641 --> 00:14:33,519
Welcome to Countdown in London.
289
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,679
Sent around the world
to get the big interviews.
290
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,399
Soul music, I guess that kind of
associates me with soul music.
291
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,399
And soul music is
a natural type feeling.
292
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,359
It's something that's not taught.
293
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,879
So anyone, any person in the world
294
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,999
that sits down to a musical
instrument, to a canvas,
295
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,959
to a letter, whatever they're
doing and whatever their thing is,
296
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,599
and they create it naturally
without have been taught
297
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,359
by books and
other things, that's soul.
298
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,759
And I think that's what I am.
299
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,439
I'm just a...
300
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:10,479
I'm a natural.
301
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,279
"Piano Man," I think,
302
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,319
might have typecast me as some as
some people were concerned.
303
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,320
"Oh, 'Piano Man'".
304
00:15:15,321 --> 00:15:17,119
"Well, it's a story song,
305
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:18,879
and so that's the kind of songs
the guy does".
306
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,559
When, in fact,
the rest of the album,
307
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,719
there isn't another song like that.
308
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:23,999
They're all different.
309
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,719
And "Street Life,"
which came after "Piano Man,"
310
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,079
was kind of a rebellion
against being typecast.
311
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,359
It was a whole change up in form.
312
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,479
And likewise, Turnstiles,
is like the title of the album,
313
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,959
Turnstiles.
I mean, there's...
314
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,639
eight different tracks and
eight different styles of music
315
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,119
'cause we all like to
play different kinds of music.
316
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,719
Some people in the music business
might have wanted me
317
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,599
to do is like, "Why don't
you put out 'Piano Man Two'"?
318
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,600
You know?
319
00:15:52,601 --> 00:15:54,319
And then "Piano Man Three,"
and so forth and so on,
320
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:55,599
and I don't want to do that
321
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,280

yourself, you're dead.

December?
895
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:13,639
DEREK: Christmas.
Early December.
896
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,119
Yeah.
Christmas time.

00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,359

They're beautiful.

Say goodbye.

00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:20,559

Bye-bye.

Sweet little girl...
902
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:25,079
And when a local act did succeed
903
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,759
in breaking
the tyranny of distance...
904
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:29,439
Yes.
905
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,199

906
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:32,200
Yeah.

long time to get up there,
909

but it's "Love And Other Bruises."
910
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,840

00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:49,799
Another explosion was about to
happen, this one in the UK.
957
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,479
Australian musicians would become
trailblazers in new genres,
958
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,759
such as punk and new wave.
959
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:57,679
Rather than looking to the past,

WILBUR: Although the
singles of local acts got close,
980
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,479
1976 was pretty
much a two horse race.
981
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:03,559
At the start of the year,
982
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,479
"Bohemian Rhapsody"
had the public entranced.
983
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:10,399
MOLLY: It was "Bohemian Rhapsody,"
and A Night at the Opera.
984
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:12,839
I mean, that was
the absolute breaker.
985
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,199
It got us to a very different area.
986
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:19,199
I mean, the cross section of the
public then were so different.
987
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,959
I mean, we were... then suddenly...
988
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:22,999
we suddenly realised we were
playing to mums and dads.
989
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,879
And then there was that ABBA song.
990
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,279
Oh, it's a new...
991
00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:30,360
brand-new song which
is called "Fernando."
992
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:35,479
And I'm singing the lead
vocals together with Anna,
993
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,039
and Bjorn and Ben, of course.
994
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:42,199
Australian expat, Noosha Fox, had
the number one "S-S-S-Single Bed,"
995
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:43,279
for three weeks.
996
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:45,039
MOLLY: When did you really
first know about the fact
997
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:48,439
that "Single Bed" was, in
fact, a giant hit in Australia?
998
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,519
Well, first of all,
someone went to me,
999
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:55,719
a friend of mine went to me from
Australia and said, you know,
1000
00:52:55,720 --> 00:52:58,719
"This record's really
getting airplay there."
1001
00:52:58,720 --> 00:53:00,319
"People are
starting to listen to it."
1002
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:01,999
"We saw you on Countdown."
1003
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:03,599
And then the next
thing I knew, you know,
1004
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:08,120
the record company telephoned me and
said, "It's number one."
1005
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:12,839
But the local song
for which we remember 1976
1006
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,079
is Sherbet's
cricket catchphrase song,
1007
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,480
