Yes, the power of the right lyrics and the right melody

To help us collectively express something

That's usually very private and we never talk about

But some of that just makes us all feel, uh, feel pretty good

There's a couple of other things that make us feel pretty good tonight, too

Apart from, thank you, you're all here with us

We just found out that today

That the album and the video that we have out at the moment

Well especially the album, really

We know that the video has already gone

But it was our 68 concert for the BBC in London in black and white

And the soundtrack from it we released for this tour

And we're delighted to tell you that this week

It's just gone into the Top 20 at number twelve

Can't keep a good group down, can you?

So if anyone's bought it, thank you, if you're gonna buy it, double thank you

No, we're thrilled and, uh

The other thing that makes us feel good in a package of these next three songs

Two in fact, I think, are on that video

Because the second and the third songs you will certainly know

They were B-Sides to two of our biggest ever hit singles

And they got as much airplay as the singles themselves

So we regard them as big hits, and you'll certainly know them

The first song of the trio is a little bit different, 'cause it's one of those early songs

We used to have a lot of fun with, because when we first sat down together

We didn't know the verses to all these great gospel songs

So we'd sing the chorus' in lusty fashion but we sorta had to be creative with the verses

You'll get the drift, here's the song

Quaintly entitled, "Let the Light from the Lighthouse Shine on Me"
