More inspired daftness and great tunes to keep you entertained through the night. More from Album and Record of the Week, as well as songs from Lester's and Listener's Libraries.

It's the only way to keep yourself entertained throughout the night with laugh-out-loud chat and a playlist crammed with classic tracks, old and new. This morning, it is Day 2 of National Lost and Found Week, there are more tales of those important things we forgot to do, and we also help producer Dr Strangelove in his quest to prove that there are aliens from outer space living among us; he believes they communicate through his nostril hair. Hmm...
Back to the music, there is a forgotten 80s gem from Jaki Graham and a new track from Huey Lewis and the News for the Lester's Library feature. The Listener's Library track is an album track from Tori Amos. There is another track from Album of the Week by KT Tunstall, and Record of the Week from James Blunt.
