You know, I talked about a few people that were close to me and one of those people I phoned up
when I found out I was doing the show and I said to him, I'd like you to be here and he said to me,
when?
Without even taking a breath.
Well that time is right now and he's here.
Please, please welcome
Morris Gibb.
[G] [N]
We talked about the public marriage, the public engagement, the public marriage
and what about the wedding?
What about, we had, the wedding we had was really something because
there were so many people outside the church that we couldn't get into the church.
No, it was packed,
I mean there was thousands outside, in fact we couldn't get out of the church.
And I also, we've been talking a lot these past few days, you know, I remember how we used to
hang out, we used to sit at home and we used to be always singing, that's all, I mean that's,
we love music, you know.
We haven't sung together for years though, have we?
27 years.
Oh my god,
how many [Abm] days?
Nine minutes.
[N]
Shall we do it again?
Yeah, sure.
Now you got the music, I said, did you learn it?
Yes, I did.
Oh good,
that's marvellous.
Let's do it, shall we?
