Outro
Smart.
From Athens, [F#maj7]Georgia, that's R -E -M,
and pretty persuasion.
A track from the second LP,
Retnan and fans of the jangly guitar
in Nottingham, Norwich, Colchester, Birmingham and Leicester
can catch the band locally in the next week.
And there will be another number from them later on.
The boomtown rats, Visage, Dead or Alive
and the honeydrippers of the contestants
in tonight's video vote.
Here are the clips. Stand by your telephones.
