Radiothon: We Are You

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

‘Keeping independent voices on air’ and ‘We Are You‘ are the twin slogans of this year’s Radiothon. We have stressed the need to come together and support each other and JOY. This is especially important in these challenging times we live in. We share a common bond under the JOY umbrella and this we must support and sustain. ‘We Are Family’ (Sister Sledge) emphasises this common bond. Other songs complement and promote the idea of we and us and togetherness. ‘Love Will Keep Us Together’ (Captain & Tennille) suggests the glue which binds us and Barbra Streisand’s poignant reminder – ‘People who need people, are the luckiest people in the world’ which stresses our human need for each other.
