00:00When the rain beats against my window pane, I think of summer days again and dream of you.
00:24They say that all good things must end someday, autumn leaves must fall.
00:43But don't you know that it hurts me so to say goodbye to you, wish you didn't have to go, no, no, no, no.
00:58And when the rain beats against my window pane, I think of summer days again and dream of you, and dream of you.
01:22Thank you very much. Thank you, thank you. It's very good to be performing at Brooklyn Heights High School.
01:38Coming here is just our way of saying thank you to the young lady who helped us get our first big break, Miss Patty Lane.
01:44Thank you. I'd just like to say that I feel very proud and happy to realize that I had a part in giving Nigel and Patrick to the world.
01:56I'll never forget the first time I heard them sing. It was at a little radio station right here in Brooklyn Heights, on a day that was also pretty historic for my cousin Kathy.
02:05She'd just been given a very big job there.
02:11Good afternoon, music lovers. This is Kathy Lane, broadcasting a new program of classical recordings presented by Brooklyn Heights High School over Brooklyn Heights' own station, BHBH.
02:22We open with Chopin's Nocturne in E flat major, played by the distinguished young American pianist, Harold Burke.
02:35Meet Kathy, who's lived most everywhere, from Zanzibar to Berkeley Square.
02:41But Patty's only seen the sights a girl can see from Brooklyn Heights, what a crazy pair.
02:47But they're cousins, identical cousins all the way.
02:54One pair of matching bookends, different as night and day.
03:01Where Kathy adores a minuet, the ballet Russe and Crepe Suzette.
03:07Our Patty loves to rock and roll, a hotdog makes her lose control, what a wild duet.
03:13Still they're cousins, identical cousins and you'll find.
03:20They laugh alike, they walk alike, at times they even talk alike.
03:24You can lose your mind when cousins are two of a kind.
03:37Bravo! That was great!
03:40Did I sound all right?
03:42Like a real pro.
03:43Why, the school did a smart thing picking you to announce this jazz... music.
03:47Thank you, Patty. And thanks for rallying around.
03:50You couldn't keep me away.
03:52Besides, I like this music. It's real catchy.
03:57Patty, you don't have to stay for the whole program.
04:00I want to, Kathy. I'm really beginning to get with it.
04:04Why don't you wait for me at the shake shop?
04:06Okay, cuz.
04:08But I really mean it. Now who needs the four Beatles when you can have the three Bs?
04:13The three Bs, Patty?
04:14Sure. Bach, Beethoven and...
04:18Bach, Beethoven...
04:22Lenny Bernstein?
04:24It's all right, Patty. Two out of three is fine.
04:27Bye. See ya.
04:47And I can see that you, that you're really mine.
04:53So it's hard for me to break apart.
04:59Yes, the truth often hurts a heart.
05:05Yes, the truth often hurts a heart.
05:13That's the wildest!
05:14Thank you, love.
05:15Hi, I'm Patty Lane.
05:16I'm Patty Lane. Who are you?
05:18I'm Nigel.
05:20I'm Patrick.
05:21Nigel and Patrick. You must be British.
05:23How can she tell? After all, being subjects of Her Majesty the Queen.
05:27Blessed with a talent for entertaining.
05:29And in bad need of a haircut.
05:31Naturally, we came to America to seek our fortune.
05:34How come I've never heard of you?
05:35Who has? We're nobodies so far.
05:38But you've got so much talent.
05:40Yes.
05:41And rhythm.
05:42Yes.
05:43And what's more, you're kind of cute.
05:45Yes.
05:46Well, and what's holding you back?
05:47Connections. We haven't got any.
05:49That's terrible. The world needs you.
05:51We're available.
05:52And I know what you need. A manager.
05:56Right.
05:57Someone with drive, enthusiasm and contact.
06:01Right.
06:02And I know just the person. Me.
06:07Why not?
06:08Well, no offense, love. I mean, you're a nice girl, but what can you do for us?
06:13True, I am a nobody, but it just so happens that my father is Martin Lane, managing editor of the New York Chronicle.
06:20Blimey.
06:21Papa knows everybody. All he has to do is pick up the phone and you're on your way.
06:24What if he doesn't like our kind of music?
06:26How could he not like it?
06:28It can't happen. First time my old man heard us sing, he threatened to kick me out of the house.
06:33Well, my father appreciates every kind of talent.
06:36And when he hears how great you are, he'll say...
06:38Mindless, monotonous, drivel.
06:42How else describe the so-called music pouring out of our jukeboxes and into the ears of the youth of America?
06:48Hear, hear.
06:49Someone said, I don't care who writes the nation's laws if I can write its songs.
06:54We at the Chronicle wonder what kind of laws will be written by the generation that responds to this kind of music.
07:01That's powerful stuff, Martin.
07:03Now let's hike. Come in.
07:06Hi, Papa.
07:07Hello, Patty.
07:08Oh, excuse me.
07:09You know Mr. James.
07:10Yes, nice to see you again, Mr. James.
07:11Of course she does. Patty, what brings you to these parts?
07:14I was just down listening to Cathy announce her symphony program.
07:17I told you about Cathy's radio show. How was it?
07:20Terrific. And then I ran into this wonderful new musical group.
07:23Musical group? What are they, a sort of string quartet?
07:28No, not exactly. Actually, there are just two of them.
07:33Oh, and they're really terrific, Papa. All they need is a break.
07:35Well, Martin, maybe we can get our concert editor to listen.
07:38I was hoping maybe you could hear them, Papa.
07:40Why, I'd be glad to, honey. When could we set it up?
07:42Right now, they're outside.
07:47Well, Cathy isn't the only lover of fine music in your family.
07:51No, evidently some of Cathy's good taste is rubbed off on Patty.
07:54Here they are, Papa. Go, boys, go.
07:56Go, boys, go.
08:13Well, what do you think?
08:14Take them away. Take them away.
08:17What do you think?
08:18Out. Out. Out. Out. Out.
08:24Out. Out.
08:55Danny.
09:07Well, what do you think, Mr. Leonard?
09:09Dynamite.
09:10You're wrong, Mr. Leonard. They're really sensational. The kids are...
09:18You mean you like them?
09:19What's not to like? They're sensational.
09:22You really mean it?
09:23From the heart.
09:27Well, you heard what he said.
09:28And to think you brought them to me. Danny Leonard, a hole-in-the-wall, fly-by-night, a nobody.
09:34Mr. Leonard, you may be a hole-in-the-wall, fly-by-night nobody, but we believe in you.
09:42And I believe in them young fellas, a hundred percent.
09:45You want us to make a record?
09:46What record? A whole album.
09:48An album?
09:49It can't miss. I'll stake my bottom dollar.
09:52How soon can you record us, Mr. Leonard?
09:54Who says we can?
09:57But you... you said you believe in them.
09:59And I do, but who am I? Danny Leonard, a hole-in-the-wall, fly-by-night, a nobody.
10:05Let's go, Nigel.
10:06Wait a minute. I ain't finished.
10:08It happens I got a silent partner, a rich brother-in-law, Max Winters. He manufactures shoes.
10:15You mean if he likes them...
10:17We're in business.
10:18Well, we'll audition for him.
10:19Impossible. Max wouldn't listen.
10:22But if he won't listen, how...
10:23He don't listen to people, only to records. You gotta go out and make a demo.
10:28What's a demo?
10:29A demonstration record. That's gonna cost money, Mr. Leonard.
10:32Don't look at me.
10:33But you said you'd stake your bottom dollar.
10:35I already spent it.
10:37But if you fellas go out and make a demo, and Max likes it, we can go all the way.
10:43All the way!
10:45All the way!
10:49Thank you, Mr. Leonard.
10:50All right, take one.
10:55Take one.
10:58Ross, would you tell Patrick that...
11:01Oh, excuse me.
11:03That's okay, Kath. I'd like you to meet Nigel and Patrick, my cousin, Kathy Lane.
11:07Evening.
11:08How'd you do?
11:09How'd you do?
11:10Kathy's a disc jockey.
11:11Yeah?
11:12Yeah, but she only plays long hair stuff.
11:14Oh, well, that's all right.
11:16Sit down, boys. Not that kind of long hair.
11:18They're really very talented, Kathy.
11:20I'm sure. It was very nice to meet you.
11:23Nice meeting you.
11:24Okay, come on. Let's get with it.

13:34That was beautiful fellas.
13:35Let's hear it back Ross, that was fabulous.
13:38You and your typical American boys know-how, you boo-boos, Ross.
14:01I did not.
14:02I know what it is.
14:03What?
14:05I know what it is.
14:06What?
14:07That was you, Patty.
14:08Me?
14:12Oh, yeah, yeah.
14:16Sorry about that.
14:18Ready for take two?
14:20And you go stand in a corner.
14:24Nigel and Patrick, take two.
14:26One, two, three, four.
14:34You can't give you love.
14:38That's just not there or even safe.
14:42The truth often hurts a lot.
14:47Yes, the truth often hurts a lot.
14:55Dynamite.
14:56You really like it?
14:58What's not to like?
14:59Then you'll play it for your brother-in-law?
15:01I told Max you fellas are making a demo.
15:03What did he say?
15:04He won't listen.
15:05That's wonderful.
15:09He won't listen?
15:11Max says what does he know from demos, a shoe manufacturer?
15:14You said...
15:15It's what Max says.
15:16He wants to hear them on the air.
15:18On the air?
15:20Max says he won't put up a nickel until a disc jockey plays the record and then he'll spring.
15:25Mr. Leonard, we're just kids.
15:27We don't know any disc jockeys.
15:29Naturally.
15:30But you must, Mr. Leonard.
15:31I mean, being in the business.
15:32Do I know the DJs?
15:34Intimately.
15:35Well, that's great.
15:36But I could pick up the phone and call any one of them right now.
15:39And tell them that I personally think that you fellas have a terrific number here.
15:43Will you?
15:44What use would it be?
15:45Who'd listen to me?
15:46Danny Leonard, a hole-in-the-wall, fly-by-night nobody.
15:50Let's go, Nigel.
15:53Wait a minute, fellas.
15:55We're not licked yet.
15:58Sure, I'm a nobody and I don't know any disc jockeys.
16:02But I believe in Nigel and Patrick.
16:05And somehow, I'm going to see to it that you go all the way.
16:08All the way.
16:10All the way.
16:14Dynamite.
16:27Hi.
16:30Huh?
16:33Believe me, fellas, I tried.
16:35But?
16:36I went to every disc jockey in town.
16:38But?
16:39I told them how great you sing and how you really deserve a break.
16:42But?
16:43But they have a rule.
16:46They won't play anything that hasn't been recorded.
16:49But we can't get recorded until someone puts us on the air.
16:53Let's face it, fellas, we did it.
16:55You'd think some place in New York they'd be able to have a...
16:57I have a wonderful program for tomorrow.
16:59Brahms' Second, Beethoven's Fifth, and Chopin's Fantasy in F Minor.
17:04Brahms, Beethoven, and Schoenberg.
17:06Why can't she give young blokes a chance?
17:09That's show business.
17:13What'd you say?
17:15Brahms, Beethoven, and Schoenberg.
17:17No, not you.
17:18I said, why can't she give young blokes a chance?
17:22Nigel and Patrick, you're not only talented and tall, you're geniuses.
17:27Kathy!
17:29Kathy, for the 50th time I've told you it's impossible.
17:32But why, Kathy? It's such a small favor to ask.
17:36I told you why, because I only play the classics.
17:38But Nigel and Patrick are a classic.
17:41Kathy, you know I'd like to oblige you.
17:43Yeah, that's why I told Mr. Leonard to tune in tomorrow.
17:46Kathy, he'll be listening with his brother-in-law, the silent partner money man.
17:51Well, I hope they like Tchaikovsky's Sixth, because that's what they'll be hearing.
17:55Kathy, the whole record takes only three minutes to play.
17:57No, what are three minutes?
17:59Long enough to get me thrown off the air.
18:06Struck out, huh?
18:08Your cousin Kathy's a very stubborn person, Ross.
18:10Yeah, I know.
18:12So is her cousin Patty.
18:14Go get me that demo.
18:16But Kathy says she won't play it.
18:17That's her opinion. Go get the demo.
18:27Hi, Kathy.
18:29Patty, you're not going to start badgering me again.
18:32No, no. As a matter of fact, I came to apologize for being such a pest.
18:36That's all right.
18:37I know how easy it is to get carried away.
18:40Yeah, I'm pretty kooky, but I'm all over it now.
18:43Kathy, isn't it about time for you to go on the air?
18:45Oh, just about. As soon as the sound engineer gets here.
18:48Oh.
18:50You mind if I hang around for a while?
18:51No, I'd love it.
18:53Thanks.
18:58Oh, that's where you keep the records, huh?
19:01Yes. From Palestrina to Maltapiston.
19:06Why?
19:08Boy, it's a pretty heavy door.
19:10Oh, it's like a bank vault in there.
19:12Once you closed that door, you could shoot off a cannon and nobody would hear it.
19:16No kidding.
19:19Uh, what's your program today?
19:22Uh, Tchaikovsky and Greek.
19:24But if there's something you'd like to hear, aside from Nigel and Patrick, I'd be very happy to play it.
19:30Never heard of them.
19:32Could you play, uh, Beethoven's...
19:37Uh, Beethoven's...
19:39Beethoven's what?
19:42His...
19:44How about his first symphony? It's very melodic.
19:48Oh, great!
19:50All right, I'll get it.
19:51Oh, great!
19:53All right, I'll get it.
20:06She's right, it is like a bank vault.
20:12Shame on you, Patty.
20:22I shouldn't let her do this to me.
20:26But I will.
20:52Hi, Kathy. Ready to roll?
20:55Yes, all set.
20:57We'll play these two, and, uh...
21:01You can put this one on first.
21:04Nigel and Patrick?
21:06On this program, Kathy?
21:08Uh, yes, it's an experiment I'm making to see how our listeners react to the modern British rhythms.
21:15It's your show.
21:17Yes.
21:22This is B.H.B.H., the voice of Brooklyn Heights.
21:26Brooklyn Heights? I never heard of it!
21:29Sit back and listen, Max,
21:31and I promise you from the money we'll make with these two young fellas,
21:34your Walter will go to Harvard.
21:36That'll be the day.
21:38We now offer an hour of recorded music presented by Brooklyn Heights High School.
21:43A high school program, Danny.
21:46What are you doing to me?
21:47Danny, what are you doing to me?
21:50Take my word, Max, it's those high school kids who buy all the records today.
21:54That's right, Papa shoots of America, pick nations hits.
21:58God help America.
22:01Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is Kathy Lane.
22:05Kathy Lane? Who's she?
22:08Very big in Brooklyn, Max. The kids swear by her.
22:11We open our program this afternoon with a number by two young boys
22:15whom I predict will be number one in all our jukeboxes.
22:19You hear what she said, Max?
22:21Here are Nigel and Patrick singing Truth Often Hurts the Heart.
22:27Go, boys, go!
22:40No.
22:42That's the wrong one.
22:46Hey, you got the one with the noise.
22:48What's that funny noise?
22:50I don't know.
22:52It's the wrong one.
22:54Yes, sir. Juke!
23:09Two fellas, you said. One of them must be a woodpecker.
23:13Somebody goofed.
23:15I'll tell you who goofed, my hole in the wall fly-by-night go-buddy of our brother-in-law.
23:21Wait a minute, Max, you're wrong.
23:23Look.
23:26Oh, hey, man, dig that beat.
23:29He's flippin'.
23:31He's nuts about them.
23:33You hear, Max? You hear?
23:36The youth of America has spoken.
23:42It's the way of love.
23:47And all of which goes to prove that if you've got British pluck, a lot of talent, and very long hair,
23:54nothing can stop you. Go, boys!
24:06Loved you all the summer through
24:11I thought I'd found my dream in you
24:16For me, you were the one
24:21But that was yesterday, and yesterday's gone
24:27We walked together hand in hand
24:32Across miles and miles of golden sand
24:37But now it's over and done
24:42Cause that was yesterday
24:59Here's Cathy who's lived most everywhere
25:02From Zanzibar to Farkly Square
25:06But Cathy's only seen the sights a girl can see from Brooklyn Heights
25:10What a crazy pair
25:12But they're cousins, identical cousins
25:17And you'll find they laugh alike, they walk alike
25:21At times they even talk alike
25:23You can lose your mind
25:25When cousins are two of a kind
25:32You can lose your mind
