The tunes played on this week's show, in case I zipped by too fast and the doppler effect meant you couldn't understand me.

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist, our theme will be:

Tin

Troggie and I will be celebrating ten years of marriage on the 9th of April, and for that I can only apologise to them. But they knew what they were getting into before, so it's not entirely my fault.

Anyway, the tenth anniversary is traditionally 'tin', presumably because it's sponsored by Big Tin and Cornwall. And this radio show will be my present to Troggie. My generosity knows no bounds.

So fling your suggestions at me using #ThePlaylistSuggestion, and make Troggie's day as wonderful as possible.

@DJDarren @Troggie #ThePlaylistSuggestion
I thought this was going to be a struggle - tin certainly isn't one of the elements most often used in songs, although probably more common than ytterbium or oganesson.

But anyway, I managed to come up with some songs quite quickly after all.

Al Jolson - Toot, Toot, Tootsie!
(because it's a classic from the golden age of Tin Pan Alley - and I like that it says toot! a lot)

Sunnyland Slim - Tin Pan Alley

Tiny Topsy - Aw! Shucks Baby
(that's TINy Topsy)

Gloria Jones - Tin Can People

The Blue Nile - Tinseltown in the Rain
(that's TINseltown, and I was shocked to look at the database and find this hasn't been on before)
