I'm not into it. None

of it. Not any more.

What if I cock up?

You know me, I get stuff

Hey, pal. Uppers,

15 for a quid.

What are you going to

get wrong with that? Go.

"So is the Sun"

by World Column

What makes it hard to find

a peace that will last?

Even if it doesn't we

can blow it too fast

So many years to

find nothing is done

We're making progress

but so is the sun

Six billion

people, yeah, yeah

All tired of trying, baby

To find some happiness

F***ing move.

To keep from dying there

Nobody takes the time to see

Do you hear me? Hey!

Their first concern

is always need

Always need

Yes it is, it's all we need!

You got to come on!

What is the

answer, yeah, yeah?

Oh, where can you trace it?

Is it the

meaning, we're just

Tickets for next week's

anniversary do are on sale now

and soon to be rarer

than rocking horse sh*t,

so get them before

they're gone.

"If It's For Real Baby"

by Porgy & Monarchs

Tell me that it's

not really true

What you've been saying

Say you don't mean it

And tell me that

it's still me and you

It's not a game

you're playing

Say you don't mean it

And tell me that you

break up and laugh

And tease me

When the joke is through

Is this for real, baby?

Dave! Cut the music!

Joe, we've got to

go now, man. Come on.

The gear was dodgy,

man. Let's go.

Joe, don't f*** about.

Come on, we've got to go.

Mandy. Mandy.

Where's that bloody ambulance? On

it's way, boss. Go and hurry it up!

Mand.

What have I told you about keeping

your hands off my goods, hein? Eh?

Get off him. What

are you doing?

The place is knee-deep

in gear tonight.

You ask where they

all got it from.

Check him out.

Clean, boss.

Yeah, well, try his bag.

Bingo.

They're not mine.

Do you want to tell

the coppers that?

Get him out of here.

Out, now!

And don't bother

coming back.

If I see you again, anywhere,

I'll break your f***ing legs.

Mand.

Go away.

What?

You heard. Go.

Please.

Monica.

For the love of

Jesus, Monica.

I walked into something.

Teach me to look where I'm

going, next time, won't it?

And whatever happened,

it's got nowt

to do with you.

Was there owt else?

No, we're all done here.

I won't keep you then.

You neither.

You did what?

What were you thinking of?

It was just a record.

Records say things, Joe.

Mother of God.

For Christ's sake, will

you wake yourself up, Joe?

I just want to

know how she is.

Dexie.

Take your coat and piss off.

Dexie?

Who was it?

Nobody.

"Be Young, Be Foolish,

Be Happy" by The Tams

Do-do-doo,

You were on the money about

this stuff taking off, Joe.

Be young, be

foolish, but be happy

Do-do-doo,

Be young, be

foolish, but be happy

Do-do-doo,

Visitor.

Must say, he scrubs up well.

Fancy a pint?

So, be young, be

foolish But be happy

So, the get-up,

what do you think?

It's

very Tom.

Thought it might be

a bit much myself.

But if you have it,

flaunt it, as I always say.

What do you think

of Cork, Joe?

I hear it floats.

No, the city in Ireland.

Good people. Fresh air.

Good place to bring up kids.

It's not the easiest time to

be a Paddy in this country, Joe.

You can take that from me.

What we doing here, Brendan?

Nothing looks like.

May as well call it a night.

Vegas look.

Suits you.

I thought you wouldn't come.

You thought wrong.

Bobby, he's out

with the lads.

We should go. We've

got a train to catch.

Brendan.

You look after

yourself now, Joe.

I'm away home.

Whisky for the

road, please, duck.

Oh, all right, Russ. All right,

can I get a bottle, please? Thanks.

You all right,

mate? Yeah. You?

I'm all right.

It's not really your scene

any more, this, is it?

I mean, you're crap in

a scrap, you can't drink,

and when it comes to pulling girls

all you ever did was held me back.

Do yourself a favour, mate.

Go where you belong.

Where the hell is

she? Where is she?

Where is she? I don't

I know she's been seeing you!

What would she want with me?

I've already hurt you. All

right, all right, all right.

She left with Brendan.

That Paddy?

Heading where?

Las Vegas. Las Vegas.

Vegas?

To see Tom Jones.

You!

You thieving little bastard!

Go back and enjoy it.

You don't understand.

I want you.

Art college.

I've been accepted

in Nottingham.

The course?

Yeah.

And I'm not going to

have you stop me, Joe.

Why would I stop you?

I think you're amazing. You

could be like that guy, Madris.

Matisse.

Ann, you're right.

I'm a selfish d*ckhead,

but I don't want to

lose you, not now.

You're the only real

thing in my life.

Do you mean it?

I only come here

because of you.

Can we start again?

I think so.

"On A Magic Carpet

Ride" by Gabriella Cilmi

They say love has many faces

And takes your

head to other places

Open up your heart

Give your life a

chance to start moving

On a magic carpet around

We can find a place

where there is no time

On a magic carpet ride

We can touch the sky

Like a bird we'll fly

There's no end

to what we'll do

Me and you

We could live

inside a flower.

We've been waiting for years

to have a film recreated

about the true

Northern Soul,

especially Wigan Casino

where most of us all went.

These are the original

Wigan memberships, yeah.
