Libera Dreams

Thanks to a bit of sleuthing by our French super fan, Fan_de_LoK, and a hefty layout on my part from a dodgy Ebay vendor, we think we may have found an old TV appearance of the St Philip's Boys Choir.

Stay tuned to the thread and I'll post the link at some point over the weekend but just to set your taste buds tingling:

Yeah, that looks totally unfamiliar to me. Looking forward to the full video. What a tease!

This should give a clue to the song:

This will be a complete guess but based on the mood of the lighting, plus a song that we could recognize from their current stage movement, my guess is "Morning has broken".

Let me know how wrong that is as soon as possible!

That looks like Jaymi and Sam circa 1988, so I'll guess it's "Sing Forever".

And you would be correct

And now for another clue:


So, can you get the year and the show from this?

I found this while scouring Amie's timeline for clues. It's on a channel with a bunch of obscure St Philips / Angel Voices / Libera videos. Your copy looks much better.

I like your thinking. That video has been around for ages and whilst it is also from a UK TV appearance it is later than the performance we have uncovered (although it is the same song featuring the same two lead singers)

Is that Terry Wogan?

Sam Harper

Terry Wogan was a UK chatshow host in the 80s & 90s and it's him sat on the sofa on the lower left of the screen.

Just need a date now & I'll post it.

1987 is the year I’m going with but it could be 1988. I just did a YouTube search for the chat show and 1987 the background matches with the stage setting as I just watched a Bee Gees performance.

Wow. I wish we could do some AI cleansing on more of those old videos. That turned out well.

Jaymi and Sam were a good duo.
