Planet Earth

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

This week’s songlist comprises songs that refer to our planet’s natural land and sea scapes taking you up hill ‘Wolverton Mountain‘ and down dale, ‘Suddenly There’s a Valley’. Launching the set is Duran Duran’s ‘Planet Earth‘. From there we travel across land, ‘I am a Rock’, water, ‘I Told The Brook’, seas with Queen’s ‘Seven Seas of Rhye‘ and then David Bowie has us looking at earth from above with his wonderful ‘Space Oddity’.

As JOY was celebrating Trans Awareness this weekend, Rob was able to relate the happy, positive journey of his ex-partner’s transition from Didi to Luna.
