Talking Good day today - had a song played on BBC radio!!! :D

Pretty good day today. Been writing some material with the Funkatronic Love Commandos' bass player, Nige Stayte.
It was submitted to BBC Radio's "Introducing" and was played today on Tammy Gooding's afternoon show - it's got the illustrious title of "Track of the week"!
As such, it will be played everyday this week Somebody must like it!!
The track is called "Hold Me", featuring Emily Beament and is unashamedly 80's pop/disco.
If you'd like to hear it, it's available on the link below. Tammy's great show is about about 4 hours, but the song plays from 2hrs 39mins (40 secs). http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00mbncy

Won't use Sound Cloud due to copyright issues.

If you run it as a popout player, you can skip

As it's a BBC-copyrighted recording, should be ok.....

Nope - but it happens so rarely, it's always worth shouting about

Well done Dan - and Emily. Nice catchy chorus and very 80s as you say. Hope it does well for you.

I'm not clear what actual Beeb station it is on?

atb, David

Cheers David. It's Hereford and Worcester. The track of the week also gets noticed further up the food chain in the BBC network
