This talk show clip from 1981 features American-born Australian singer Marcia Hines, who gives an energetic performance of 'Your Love Still Brings Me to My Knees' before being interviewed by British host Michael Parkinson.

Parkinson in Australia was a spin-off of Parkinson's similar UK show, in which he interviewed notable celebrities and politicians. The excerpt reflects the minimalist and comfortable tone of Parkinson's production and interviewing style. Hines performs on an empty stage with limited technical flourishes; the same stage Parkinson uses to conduct his interview on wheeled office chairs. Within this casual set-up, Hines' sparkling public persona shines, as she engages in coy asides to the audience about her trendy ‘80s fashion choices (legwarmers and an oversized tee reading 'Australian Girl') and the singer Jon English. From this excerpt, viewers can get a glimpse of Hines during one of her career peaks, and also Parkinson's adaptation of his talk show format for an Australian audience, where not much is needed except charm and chemistry.

Later in the show, Hines returns to perform a duet with English, reprising their Jesus Christ Superstar collaboration. 'Your Love Still Brings Me to My Knees' was originally recorded by Dusty Springfield, before being covered by Marcia Hines for her album Take It From the Boys. It became Hines' sixth Top 10 single in Australia.
