The Love Song and Rag'n'Bone Man

Rag'n'Bone Man chooses the Tracks of My Years. Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster quiz plus your love song dedications.

Rag'n'Bone Man - award winning singer songwriter - chooses the Tracks of My Years all week with Ken. Born in 1985, Rory Charles Graham first came to widespread attention in 2016 with his 10 million-selling single ‘Human’ – which won him one of his 3 BRITS to date – and since then he hasn’t looked back. His album of the same name became the fastest-selling debut by a male artist of the last decade, and, alongside Calvin Harris, he went on to have another smash with the song ‘Giant’.

Now after a few years away he’s back with his new album Life By Misadventure which was released in May. It was preceded by two singles: All You Ever Wanted and Anywhere Away From Here - a duet with the chart topping American singer Pink. This album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart making it the fastest selling album by a solo artist in 2021.

Earlier this year Rory gave a spectacular performance live from his home for a special Radio 2 House Music Session, accompanied by the Â鶹ԼÅÄ Concert Orchestra. It is still available to watch on the Â鶹ԼÅÄ Music Youtube channel alongside other exclusive performances from the likes of Lola Lennox, Marisha Wallace, Luke Combs and Joan Armatrading.

The next two tracks Rory has chosen come from Sheryl Crow and Roberta Flack. Ken also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus another round of PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch with the show email Ken.Bruce@bbc.co.uk
