- Self - Host: And in 1964, even the girls got in on the beatin' and they got their fair share of record sales too, with tunes like:
- Susan Maughan: [singing] Make moon shine, Just a little brighter, Make hold me, Just a little tighter, If I bet on you, Make my dreams come true, Make him mine...
- Self - Host: Among the new groups in 1964, we saw the first ever number one hit by a mixed group; but, mind you, it was only just a mixed group because there was one very, very beautiful young lady surrounded by four terrible fellas.
- Themselves: [the Honeycombs - singing] Have I the right to hold you, You know I've always told you, That we must never ever part, Oh-oh-oh...
- Self - Host: Yes, in deed, they're all sorts of sounds in '64. Big sounds like Sounds Incorporated and double sounds like Peter and Gordon.
- Peter Asher, Gordon Waller: [singing] Please lock me away, And don't allow the day, Here inside where I hide, With my loneliness, I don't care what they say I won't stay, In a world without love...
- Self - Host: Pop Gear - hey, that's the name of this picture. Well, there's one thing, it doesn't really matter whether you dig it or whether you don't dig it, there's one sure thing and that's that in its time Pop Music has given lots of pleasure to lots of people. And never since the Minuet was up to the minute, did one big pop not release energy!
- [Sounds Incorporated plays the instrumental 'Rinky Dink]
- Themselves: [the Beatles - singing] With a love like that, You know you should be glad, Yeah-Yeah-Yeah! Yeah-Yeah-Yeah!
- Self - Host: 1964 and that was the sound that started it all. Pop Gear. That's what everybody called it. But, even though The Beatles blew the world up in '64, there were still other great sounds from other great world beaters, like Billy J.
- Themselves: [Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas - singing] Little children, you better not tell on me, I'm tellin' you, Little children, you better not tell what you see, And if you're good, I'll give you candy and a quarter, If you're quiet like you oughta be, And keep the secret with me...
- Eric Burdon: [singing] Baby, do you understand me now? Sometimes I feel a little mad, But don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel, When things go wrong I feel real bad.
- Themselves: [the Animals] I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
- Eric Burdon: Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
- Themselves: [Herman's Hermits - singing] Woke up this mornin' feelin' fine, There's somethin' special on my mind, Last night I met a new girl in the neighborhood, whoa yeah, Somethin' tells me, I'm into something good...
- Themselves: [the Four Pennies - singing] Black girl, black girl, tell me no lies, Where did you sleep last night, In the pines, in the pines, Where the sun never shines, She shivered the whole night through...
- Matt Monro: [singing] It's - been a swingin' year, For the groups that made the grade, Those discs you played and played, Then play 'em again, You got the music that you long to hear, It's all here, And its Pop Gear. The Stones - are crazy about it, Dave Clark stamps his feet for it, The Mersey sound became a hit, And The Beatles - started it. Youth - were the problem child, In a world where music sings, You're emotions took on wings that frenzy the dreams, Why you almost heard the music through the screams! Yes, in deed, And you need, Oh, how you need, Some more Pop Gear, Pop, Pop, Pop Gear...
- Self - Host: It became very big in '64, Rhythm and Blues. Carried on here by Spencer Davis.
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: [singing] We're talking about my baby, not you baby, say my baby, She's so fine, I'm talking about my baby, not you baby, say my baby, She's so fine She's right there in love, And people come, rain or shine, Well, I love her, don't you love her, 'cause I love her, Now, you hear? Well, I love her, don't you love her, 'cause I love her, Now, you hear? She upsets my soul when she whispers sweet things in my ear
- Steve Winwood: I love the way she walks
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Yeah, she walks
- Steve Winwood: I love the way she talks
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Yeah, she talks
- Steve Winwood: Make me feel so good
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Yeah, so good
- Steve Winwood: Just like a good man should
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Yeah, he should
- Steve Winwood: She never made me cry
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Yeah, yeah, yeah
- Steve Winwood: That's why
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Yeah, yeah, yeah
- Steve Winwood: She's my babe
- Spencer Davis, Muff Winwood: Well nothin' could be better, Than to see her in a sweater, And a real tight skirt, that won't fit..
- John Lennon: [singing] Ah.
