Have you got a song that's changed your life? Let us know what it is and how it affected you...

Diane and Andy Aspinall
Our song that changed our lives would be Eternal Flame by the Bangles. We got married in May and it was our special song

Antony Forst
Something Happened on the Way to Heaven - Phil Collins. Each time I hear this on the radio or when he performed it in concert I felt a tingle down my spine! Its a truly great song with words that have so much meaning, one of Phil's best.

Jane Talbot
December 2005 my husband of 30 years left me and I thought my life was over, he was my world. At my lowest I kept hearing Simon Webbe's "No Worries" which says life will get better and sure enough it did. I have met a really nice bloke and I am happy again. Keep up the good work I love listening to you.
