WELL, not long now until this year's Give A Child A Chance Day on Radio City 96.7.
We all really look forward to this day as we join up with our sister station Magic 1548. With one aim in mind and that is to generate as much cash as possible for children's charities in the North West.
In between preparing for Give A Child A Chance Day I have had chance to listen to a few singles and here are my three tips for the top for this week.
Bachelor Girl - Buses and Trains I first heard this track a few weeks ago when I was travelling home from London after that first time I just couldn't get the chorus out of my head.
It's very much in the mould of Sixpence None The Richer and even early Shania Twain. It's a girl with a guitar singing about walking under a bus and getting hit by a train. Sounds a barrel of laughs doesn't it? But believe me it's one of the catchiest songs of the year. Out on June 7.
Garbage - You Look So Fine After the huge success of their double platinum album 'Version 2.0' (That means around 600,000 sales to you and me) Garbage release this striking ballad that is sure to be another huge hit for them. They never fail to amaze me how time and again they just keep on coming up with great songs. I think this is my favourite off the album see what you think when it comes out.
Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen) Chances are you have already heard this track. It's the weird one with the old fellow giving us advice on looking after our knees, brushing our teeth and wearing factor 15 (Even though we never have any sun in the UK) It's been created by a bloke called Baz Luhrmann - dodgy name I know but a serious bank account as he was the director of the Box Office Smash Romeo and Juliet. Record shops have already ordered 400,000 copies of this song and it's not out for a couple of weeks. If this is not a number one I'll walk naked down Church Street.
