    'The Songs of Come Away with Me' Jesse Harris (ft. Norah Jones)

    Come Away With Me is one of the best selling albums of all time. It made Norah Jones into a global star, but the album was very much an ensemble effort with members of the band contributing the lion's share of the song writing. Guitarist Jesse Harris has credits on five of the songs on Come Away With Me. He tells in depth story of how they were created. Norah Jones features in this episode, explaining how she met Jesse and reveals that 'Don't Know Why' was recorded in one take!

    'Angels' and the Hits of Robbie Williams with Guy Chambers

    Guy Chambers and Robbie Williams achieved huge success with their song writing partnership. Songs such as Let Me Entertain You, Rock DJ, Millennium and of course Angels, cemented Robbie Williams' solo career after his departure from Take That. Guy studied at the Guildhall School of Music before becoming a member of World Party in the 80s. His meeting with Robbie came via a need to pay his mortgage rather than a glamourous musical partnership, but within minutes of meeting, they wrote their first song. At this time I was a DJ on a radio station in London. Guy would occasionally call me up and tell me they were both listening while taking a break from writing. To be honest, I wondered what on earth a guy from World Party was doing writing songs with a former member of Take That! The next thing I new, Angels was a huge hit. Listen to Guy's candid account of his journey on Your Song: The Podcast.
