Jason Donovan picks two more of his favourite tracks plus more from the PopMaster Music Quiz.

Jason Donovan, Australian superstar, chooses the Tracks of My Years with music from Blur and Coldplay. He initially found fame in the TV soap Neighbours, playing Scott Robinson, before beginning a career in music in 1988. In the UK he has sold over 3 million records. His debut album "Ten Good Reasons" was the highest-selling album in the UK in 1989, with sales of over 1.5 million. He has had four UK No. 1 singles, one of which was "Especially for You", his 1988 duet with fellow Neighbours co-star Kylie Minogue. He has also appeared in several stage musicals, most prominently in the lead role of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in the early 1990s.

To mark the 30th anniversary of his hugely successful debut album, Jason will be embarking on a mammoth 52 date "Even More Good Reasons" tour next year which will take in major towns and cities across the UK and Ireland. After his surprise appearance with his pal Kylie at Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park last year, duetting once more on their million-selling collaboration "Especially For You", the reception was off the scale. This latest tour will be the first time in four years he's performed his own material to a live audience.

Gary also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch email Gary.Davies@bbc.co.uk
