Dictationをしてみたものの。意味が通じない箇所多数。リスニング力のなさを痛感。

David, the record would you have them chart in Britain at the moment is that would be the biggest success today, isn’t it?
- My ONLY success today.
Well, wouldn’t say that. Tell us a little bit about you. Was it planned long time ago or is it very recent?
- Most people [presume..] it written because of anticipating the space shot, but in fact, it started last November and the recording of it started last December and it was finally finished in June, after which is released within three weeks which is very good going
So, right, now, you are not doing it in the studio, today
- No, No
Why is this?
- We'd need about five orchestras to get them, the right sound I think. That's possibly [pass] everybody’s budget.
Yeah. that could be true. Do you do live version of it when you travelling on
- Just with twelve string. Just with twelve string guitar
Yeah? And now with your little electronic gadget
- Yes. I use that too
That's it.
- then mention
[but the real, real] know too really.
Have you got anything that you are doing today’s program that is not on record
- Oh yeah. We’ve got a number that we [dug] up today, which was written about four years ago. hasn’t been out of the house. its the first airing its [over] had anywhere.
Really. Why it was not recorded?
- Why? My mother thought the lyrics were dirty
Are they?
- No. Not at all.
Oh, dear. What is it called?
- Very [serial]. Let me sleep beside you.
Can we hear it?
- Yes
