Welcome to our last TOUCH OF PINK for 2013. As Dame Shirley commands, let’s get this party started. Lots of great new tracks tonight including Aussies Samantha Jade, Strike Force, Betty Who, Brad Wolf and Totes (who are actually from New Zealand).

Apart from Dame Shirley we also have appearances from diva’s Martha Wash, Boy George, Melissa Etheridge and Melissa Manchester. And honourable mentions to two great covers … Chvrches on Whitney Houston’s It’s not right but it’s ok, and James Arthur on Miley Cyrus’ Wrecking ball (I’d love to see him recreate Miley’s video).

Single Of The Week is “Uprising of love” by Melissa Etheridge, a new social movement dedicated to supporting the Russian Freedom Fund which works for long-term systemic change in the status and treatment of Russia’s LGBT community. Yay!

Here follows tonight’s playlist. Tune in to us this Saturday on JOY 94.9 from 7pm for 26 tracks in 2 hours (yes, we know!). Your hosts are Dennis and Dick.
