Fridays are just a great day aren't they really! There's music, love and laughter and it's all courtesy of Desert Island Disco and, more importantly, the listeners! Today's tracks of magical mystery comes from listener Natasha Karol - she just dropped us an email: lauren.6music@bbc.co.uk don't you know - and she enjoys a good dance with her bestie, Farmer.
"Me and my friend Farmer enjoyed putting together the list below for your Desert Island Disco section, which we love listening to on a Friday. I hope you enjoy our selection. These are the songs that soundtrack our shared dancing memories. Through festivals around the world to our ‘Shameless’ club nights and numerous house parties, these are the songs that represent our friendship."
Natasha & Farmer's Shameless Classics
Let’s Dance - David Bowie
In a very crowded field at Glastonbury one year, we danced to Nile Rodgers with Chic performing this.
Playing with Knives - Bizarre Inc
TUNE!!
No 1 Song in Heaven – Sparks
A killer dance floor classic that appeals to the techno beasts and guitar lovers.
Passion - Gat Decor
Arguably the best piano break-down. One of Farmer’s favourite dance tunes.
Temptation – Heaven 17
A Shameless classic that we both love.
Williams Blood (Aeroplane mix) - Grace Jones
Too cool for our Shameless nights, but love to hear it out.
212 - Azealia Banks
We actually managed to get out of our chairs to dance to this one at Glastonbury. Farmer is particular fond of this one.
Electricity – OMD
Another Shameless classic
Seasons (waiting on you) - Future Islands
Farmer introduced me to this band at Coachella this year and loved them despite the sandstorm.
Hardcore Uproar – Together
Takes us back to days of less fat and wrinkles
All My Friends - LCD Soundsystem
We love them. We loved seeing them together. Farmer picked the worst time to go the toilet when we saw them in Berlin and missed this one.
Papua New Guinea - Future Sound of London
A beautiful tune. Memories of dancing on the banks of Loch Lomond.
Positive Education – Slam
One of our favourite Glasgow acts that have kept us dancing through the years, especially Friday nights spent at the Arches.
Everything She Wants – Wham
Reminds us of a boat trip in Croatia. Rushing down the stairs of the boat as soon as we heard Wham. Also the highlight of our recent California road trip was seeing the infamous toilet in Beverly Hills.
It’s Alright – Pet Shop Boys
Our favourite band.
Radioactivity - Kraftwork .
At Exit Festival, this was the tune we all went crazy for.
Coma cat - Tensnake
Reminds us of sunny holidays in Croatia with good friends.
Red Light Spells Danger - Billy Ocean
Another Shameless floor filler.
No cars go - Arcade Fire
What a tune! They closed Coachella this year (sad face).
No More Tears - Donna Summer and Barbra Streisand
Enough is never enough of this tune.
Best wishes
Natasha and Farmer
