🎶 Song of the Day: “Where Is My Husband!” — RAYE 🎶

Just saw her live performance of Where Is My Husband! on The Graham Norton Show and wow — absolutely mesmerising. Her voice rings with emotion, power, and that raw vulnerability you can’t fake. (And let’s be honest — it’s a question I’ve asked myself many a time! 😅)

A few things I love about this track:
• Released in 2025, co-written and co-produced by RAYE and Mike Sabath.
• Teased ahead of release, it’s already gaining traction across her live sets — blending modern R&B, soul, and bold storytelling.
• The lyrics capture longing, introspection, and self-worth: “Wait ’til I get my hands on him / I’ma tell him off too / For how long he kept me waiting” — lines that cut through with honesty.

That Graham Norton performance felt like an intimate confession stretched across a stage — simply spectacular and hugely impressive. I’ve got chills just thinking about it.

RIP to the heartbreak, and long live Where Is My Husband! 💖

🎶 Song of the Day: METAL — Gary Numan 🎶

When you hear the name Gary Numan, most think of CARS. But today’s pick is METAL, a track from his 1979 album "The Pleasure Principle" that goes deeper and darker.

A few things that make METAL special:

⭐️ It’s built around sci-fi themes — telling the story of an android longing to be human but trapped inside its own existence.
⭐️ The bassline was influenced by The Beach Boys’ “Do It Again.”
⭐️ It’s been a staple in Numan’s live shows since 1979 and has been reworked over the years — from its original to updated versions with new energy.

Listening to it today feels like stepping into a neon-lit future, haunted by longing and machines. Let it wrap around you.

🎶 Song of the Day / Rest in Power: “Lucky Star” — Superfunk feat. Ron Carroll 🎶

Ron Carroll sadly passed away on Saturday 21st September. His voice was a gift, and “Lucky Star” is one of those songs that still feels like magic — soulful vocals, a house anthem that bridges heart and beat.

A few facts to remember him by:

✨️ Ron Carroll was born in Chicago in 1968, and raised singing in church choirs — that gospel soul always shone through in his work.

✨️ “Lucky Star” (with French group Superfunk) came out in 2000, and it became one of those crossover house hits that sold hundreds of thousands of copies worldwide.

RIP Ron Carroll — thank you for the music, the energy, the joy. You gave so much more than beats, you gave us moments. 💙

🎶 Song of the Day: “September” — Earth, Wind & Fire 🎶

It’s the 21st of September… so there really could only be one choice today! 💫 "September" by Earth, Wind & Fire is pure joy in musical form — that iconic groove, those horns, and the vocals that make you want to dance the second it starts.

A couple of fun facts for you:

⭐️ The track was released in 1978 and became one of Earth, Wind & Fire’s biggest hits, reaching the Top 10 in the US and the UK.
⭐️ Maurice White, the band’s founder, deliberately chose the line “Do you remember the 21st night of September?” because the syllables sounded good together — the date itself didn’t actually hold any special significance!

Decades later, it’s still one of the most recognisable and feel-good anthems of all time. So if you need a lift today, get this on and let it work its magic. 🕺💃

🎶 Song of the Day: “Man I Need” — Olivia Dean 🎶

Today’s mood is set by Olivia Dean’s "Man I Need" — a soulful track that cuts right to the heart. Olivia, who first captured attention with her EPs, has this gifted way of blending little heartbreaks and longings into something totally relatable and raw.

Fun fact: "Man I Need" shows off her powerful vocals and emotional depth, backed by minimal instruments that let each line and anguished note shine — that mix of vulnerability and strength she does so well.

If you’ve ever felt that ache for connection or just needed something real, this one hits it.

✨ Restaurant Spotlight: Bhaiya’s Kitchen, Old Dover Road (Blackheath) ✨

What a transformation this place has had! Some of you might remember it in its previous incarnation as Chinipan, but the new look completely surpassed my expectations. Deep green tones, lavish gold accents, and a much more open layout now give it such an elegant, luxury feel.

📹 Check out my YouTube Short here: https://bit.ly/AnEveningAtBhaiyasKitchen

From the moment we arrived, the service was second to none. I was greeted at the door with a handshake, our coats were taken, and the staff really went above and beyond all evening. Their warmth and pride in the restaurant made the whole experience feel extra special.

We were treated to non-alcoholic champagne and a mix of delicious dishes — beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavour. Every single bite hit the spot.

It honestly felt like a real occasion, and I left feeling so glad that this gem is right here in our local area. Bhaiya’s Kitchen is exactly the kind of place we need more of — stylish, welcoming, and serving up food that delights. 🌟

If you haven’t checked them out yet, I can’t recommend it enough. I’ll definitely be heading back!

🎶 Song of the Day: “All You Need Is Love” — The Beatles 🎶

My horoscope mentioned this track this morning, and I couldn’t agree more. Written by millionaires, perhaps their experience of great wealth gave them the perspective to truly understand the value of love. This powerful force, so essential to our wellbeing, might not solve every problem — but without it, success feels empty. With love in our lives, even the impossible suddenly seems possible. ✨

A little fact for you: "All You Need Is Love" was written by John Lennon and first performed by The Beatles on 25 June 1967, broadcast live to over 400 million people worldwide during the first ever global TV link, "Our World". 🌍 Imagine being part of that moment!

A universal message then — and just as true today. 💙🫶

🎶 Song of the Day: “Hey, Hey, What Can I Do” – Led Zeppelin 🎶

Today’s vibe is Led Zep’s sweet little gem — "Hey, Hey, What Can I Do". Released back in November 1970, it was the B-side to “Immigrant Song”, and for years it was a scarce, cult-favourite tune that never appeared on a proper album—until the 1990 Boxed Set finally gave it a home.

It’s got that unexpected country-rock/folk-rock twist—no grand solos, just heartfelt, acoustic charm. I love that Robert Plant basically shrugs and sings “What can I do?” — pure, cheeky honesty, and totally unforgettable.

Pour me a cuppa and let’s sway along:
"Hey, hey, what can I do? Oh no, what can I say…"

🎶 Song of the Day: “Sailing” by Christopher Cross ⛵️

This track is pure Sunday perfection. It carried me back to memories of last weekend in Sweden ("the canvas can do miracles") and made me think of someone I hold dearly in my heart — who loves to go sailing. 🌊 This one is for you, Georg. ☺️

FUN FACT: That beautiful orchestral intro? Legend has it, it wasn't planned. During mixing, the orchestral machine apparently kicked in by accident—and nobody was sure why. But that “mistake” turned into the most magical opening, earning the song a Grammy for Best Arrangement.

It’s like the universe nudged the music into place… and I love that.

Let the sound carry you away today. 💙🌅

🎸 Song of the Day: Ozzy Osbourne – "Hellraiser" (feat. Lemmy Kilmister) 🎤⚡

I've been listening to a lot of Ozzy lately since his passing, revisiting tracks I haven’t heard in ages — and this one *hits differently* now.

"Hellraiser" is a powerhouse track originally co-written with Lemmy back in '91. Then, in 2021, Ozzy released a new version featuring both of their vocals side by side — two rock legends, united once more in pure metal mayhem. 🤘🔥

It’s got grit, heart, and that unmistakable 'Ozzy x Lemmy' energy. Give it a listen today — and crank it up loud.

Rest in power, madmen. 🖤
