My David Attenborough themed suggestions for this week:
Queen - Now I'm here (because of his catchphrase 'Here...',)
Public Service Broadcasting - ROYGBIV (because of his role in promoting colour television)
Embrace - Nature's law (because nature and stuff)
Until watching the Life on Earth documentary the other day, I hadn't ever considered why he always says 'Here..', but now get that having travelled all over the world to get to remote locations, _here_, i.e. not in studio in a London, is a pretty big deal that needs to be emphasised to the viewer.

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist
To celebrate the fact that I got to see gorillas when visiting Longleat last week, and had my car VANDALISED by a monkey, next week's theme is:
Monkey Man
And yes, I'm aware that a gorilla is not a monkey. A gorilla is an ape. As are we. No tail, init.
Anyway, fling your ape/monkey/primate related suggestions this way using #ThePlaylistSuggestion and together we'll put together two SWINGING* hours of radio!

*get used to this joke, I will be using it a lot.

Isle of Wight based picture seller. I run a small gallery selling my husband's landscape photography. Previously I worked as a project worker in a centre for the homeless and rootless and later in homeless prevention/tenancy support. I tend to post photos of the Isle of Wight , boost other photos that appeal to me, share what music I'm (and others I follow) are listening to. In my case it's usually rock! Give me nature, animals, music, vegan food, Coventry City FC and I'm happy!

The Singing Postman - Hev you got a light boy, because my Grandad (from Suffolk) sounded just like this.
Also Wiseguys - Deutsche Bahn, which mocks the announcements that are in English with a heavy German accent on German railways
