Favourite songs 2025: Laufey
I'm totally in love with the voice and music of Laufey, an Icelandic singer I have discovered. Not only does she compose her own songs, she is a very accomplished cellist (an instrument I love too) and often plays it in her songs. Her music is both timeless and retro. It makes me feel deeply nostalgic.

Nostalgic Music: My favourite songs from musicals
I absolutely adore musicals. The first musical I ever saw on stage was South Pacific and it made a big impact. Dad had the record of "Joseph and His Technicolored Dreamcoat" and I was mesmerised by it (and would later, at school, star as "Pharoah" in this musical.) At school, I also starred as an orphan in "Oliver!" and loved all the songs. My musical watching reached its zenith in London where I saw many of the great musicals on stage. I also love watching movie musicals. Here is a list of my favourite songs from musicals.
