Song To Nurse A Hangover
The Commadors: 'Easy'
"It's like a soothing head massage through your stereo - add in a fry up and you have the perfect cure!"

Song For Getting Ready To Go Out
The Wombats: 'Kill The Director'
"The great beat just gets you dancing, and chuck in the anthemic chorus and you have a perfect build up to an evening out!"

Song To Help Get Through Winter
Jimi Hendrix Experience: 'Bold As Love'
"I could have chosen any Hendrix really - any time I’m driving along in me little car and it's cold and wet, I always put on some Jimi and it's like a hot summers day."

Song For A Summer Day
The Feeling: 'Join With Us'
"Their sound just oozes summer to me, and this track has a great chorus to bellow out of your car window on a sunny day! Plus you’ve got the rocking ending which is great to do a Wayne’s World headbang too!"

Song To Fall In Love To
Stevie Wonder: 'I Was Made To Love Her'
"It’s the only song to fall in love to! A great funky beat, but just ever so sweet!"

Song To Sulk To After Being Dumped
Led Zeppelin: 'Since I’ve Been Loving You'
"A slow and sultry number, this keeps you wallowing right up until the guitar solo pulls you up like a lifeguard's hand out of a pool."
