On #FFSLive duty tonight on @noiseboxradio.com where our listeners have picked tracks that are not love songs - because not everyone wants to mark Valentine's Day.

Join us via noiseboxradio.com or good radio player apps, and be part of the show chat on the NBR Community Discord.

Ben and I have decided we want to be the new Pat & Mick, so in order to make a dent in the increasing bills of excellent community radio station @noiseboxradio.com we've recorded a charity version of 'I Could Be So Good For You' in the style of Rikki & Daz.

On a day when the washbasket needed emptying, too.

Bev Knight at 19 deserved a shot rather than one of the repeated performances - same with the ABBA medley at 4 #totp
