Well, this is possibly our most ambitious theme show ever! Three themes in one. Dancing, animals and dancing animals. We've just counted up and annoyingly, it's 44 songs. 45 would have been nice as it's a show on all 45s. Perhaps if we'd have started properly we might have snuck another one in. You live and learn.

As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
