Oh Diane! Came across this

[FierySequences]

searching ytube. Top of the Pops and Solid Gold are famous for having great musical acts lip synching their hits. Lindsey looks terrified! LMAO

Thanks for posting that I'm speechless. Dancing to Oh Diane??? Really? At least we know now that Lindsey is as bad as Stevie is at lip synching, which is a very good thing.

Does anyone know when this was taped? Was it indeed 1983, or just after the tour ended maybe?

not sure of the timing...
TOTP's is featured in the UK...so my guess would be probably after they finished recording in France but before the tour?

But then again, Oh Diane was realeased as a single in the UK in Dec 82....and Stevie/Chris look like they were wearing their tour outfits...so yeah prob Dec 82/Jan 83.

I find hard to believe they were together for shows in 1983, but probably it's jan.83 as FierySequences says. However, according to Mick's book, it was january '83 when Stevie announced him that she was marrying Kim Anderson. Then he worked with The Zoo and flew to England to work on Christine's solo album at Steve Winwood's studio in Gloucester. But he doesn't specify the month.

Yes! so bored that Mick's beat doesn't seem to follow the rhythm, and Stevie looks to Lindsey as if she asking When the hell does the song end?


And so bored like this fake John falling asleep:

[WildHearted]

I love this video so much. Lindsey's so terribly bored. All dolled up with no place to go.

Stevie dancing nonstop in the background and quietly playing the tambourine never fails to crack me up.

Also, I think that's the most reserved Mick has ever looked while performing.

The way his collar is angled, Lindsey looks like he's wearing one of those feather earrings.

[TrueFaith77]
