Singer and actress Rita Ora chooses her penultimate songs in Tracks Of My Years.

As well as being a multi-platinum selling music artist with 13 UK Top 10 singles and four Number Ones singles to her name, Rita is also an actor, a model, an influencer and a general woman-about-town.

She's also built a reputation as a talent show judge both here and abroad in programmes like 'The X Factor' , 'America's Next Top Model.' β€˜The Masked Singer’ and 'The Voice'.

And as well as delivering a knock out interval performance at this year’s Eurovision semi-final, Rita gave a surprise appearance on stage with Fatboy Slim at Glastonbury and most recently performed at London Pride.

Rita’s brand new single β€œDon’t Think Twice” is the third single to be released from her album 'You & I', and the song's video is directed by Academy Award-winner Taika Waititi...who also happens to be Rita’s hubby.

Plus there's the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top. Plus more spins of Record and Album of the week
