00:00She's in itself quite a feat. It's lovely to see Alison again. No one nicer in the industry and back when we were talking about when those gold records and those platinum records were about and Queen of Pop, three times she was Queen of Pop, no one bigger in Australia.
00:14And as she says, she's now touring so if you see her build anywhere, go along and see this lovely lady. Her musical director, as she mentioned, is Doug Cotterill. Here's Alison with the song we talked about, Bright Eyes.
00:30Is it a kind of dream?
00:55Floating out of the tide
01:00Wandering all over the hills unseen
01:05Or is it a dream?
01:10There's a sparkle on the horizon
01:16Strange glow in the sky
01:22Nobody ever knows when they leave
01:27And when do they start?
01:30Oh, into the dark
01:36Bright eyes
01:39Burning like fire
01:44Bright eyes
01:47Or can you close and fail?
01:53How could a light that burns so brightly suddenly burn so pale?
02:00Bright eyes
02:08Is it a kind of shadow?
02:19Reaching into the night
02:25Wandering all over the hills unseen
02:30Or is it a dream?
02:35There's a sparkle on the horizon
02:41Strange glow in the sky
02:47Nobody ever knows when they go
02:52And when do they start?
02:55Oh, into the dark
03:01Bright eyes
03:04Burning like fire
03:09Bright eyes
03:12Or can you close and fail?
03:18How could a light that burns so brightly suddenly burn so pale?
03:25Bright eyes
03:29Bright eyes
03:32Burning like fire
03:37Bright eyes
03:40Or can you close and fail?
03:46How could a light that burns so brightly suddenly burn so pale?
03:53Bright eyes
04:24Uh-oh.
04:25Oh, how bad are you?
04:29Oh, my God.
04:34Cameron.
04:35Cameron Bradley.
04:3617 years old.
04:38Pardon me?
04:40Jason.
04:41Yes.
04:42And he's 24.
04:46And 6 foot 2.
04:47Right.
04:48They tower over me.
04:49Cameron is about 2 inches, 3 inches taller than me already.
04:52It happens that way, doesn't it?
04:53Unbelievable, yes.
04:54Good on you.
04:55I wanted to say more about you, Doug, but unfortunately we got on to the kids, so next time you come round, I'll...
04:58Incidentally, I still get letters from one of the nurses I met that day at Footscray Hospital.
05:03Did you?
05:04All those years ago, yeah.
05:05Or do you?
05:06Yeah, I do.
05:07And if she's watching this morning, I can't give you back the $10.
05:08Times are hard.
05:09I'll give it back to you as soon as I possibly can.
05:11Thank you, Alison.
05:12Thank you very much.
05:14Great to have you both on the show.
