Have a great time whatever you do tonight.

But if you're *37 or older, then maybe stay away from da club as you are too old.

That's not our view, it's the findings of a new survey, external.

You could always stay in and scroll down this page for the latest round of Thom Yorke v UK Artists for Palestine, Stormzy's big day at Oxford Uni, our Ariana - the new honorary Manc and another brilliant case of mistaken identity involving two actual musical Mancs and an actual knight.

Then, there's always the Wimbledon highlights too of course...

BBC Radio 1

Bonzai with I Feel Alright.

She wrote it with her good pal Mura Masa on a recent 'writing camp' working holiday.

The singer (above right) tells Annie how another trip to Cuba made her want to throw "a few happier chords" in on the final version of the track.

Have a listen above. Annie clearly loves it.

Speaking of Mura Masa, he was also on Annie's show last night performing a live set, which included a Calvin Harris cover (we're not telling you which one though or who guest stars on it).

Double M - as we like to call him - added that he was a big fan of Annie's Hottest Record selection but as the track's producer he has to say that.

PS. Go easy with these hot records by the way will you. The George Michael remixes are apparently so hot that they burned Nile Rodger's faders.

There is still a couple of weeks to go until Annie Mac, Toddla T and Pete Tong need to dig out the Factor 30 and flip flops for Radio 1's annual jaunt to Ibiza.

But you can get a head start with some tips about which tracks will be grabbing clubbers by the Balearics and shaking them around this summer.

Here is the full list of nine and one below to get you started...

With festival season well upon us, The Strypes have offered a tactical insight into how to approach a set at a big live event.

"Just play the songs as quickly as possible".

All killer, no filler: Simple as that really.

Despite the early Saturday afternoon start, the young Irish rock 'n' rollers played to a "ferocious crowd" (according to bass man Pete) at BST in Hyde Park.

Guitarist Josh, who also lent his riffing skills to Paul Weller on his latest album, said the band don't mess around in fields full of strangers.

He said: "Normally at our shows we play for like one hour 30/45 minutes, so it's hard to fit all the songs into 30 minutes.

"We just try and do the songs as quick as possible. We're pleased as we played about eight and didn’t get cut off!"

Drummer Evan added; "We're not really ones to get nervous on stage."

(Not behind those shades at least below).

The Cavan lads burst on to the scene (and stage) in 2012 as bluesy 16-year-old prodigies but last month they released their third studio album; the Ethan Jones-produced Spitting Image.

At 21, they believe they've shed their early skin as the talented kids playing rock 'n' roll standards and are now letting their own original sound and voice shine through.

Josh added: "There was a big shout when we first came over to the UK about how young we were.

"That’s subsided now. We're three albums in and people are taking the band as the band - for the tunes."

They've smashed the scene, worked with their heroes and now developed their sound - all by the age of 21. At 32, I'm still waiting for any of those things to happen.

What direction are they heading in next then? I ask...

"Scotland!" quips Josh. "For TRNSMT."

Add funny to that list too.

Check out their raucous-looking Scottish show above.

If you can stomach a bit of strong language then you can re-live the band's Glastonbury set on The Park stage here.

Iggy has probably watched it a few times already.

The delighted grime star shared pictures of him and members of the society on Tuesday.

He said he was "Standing proud in a room full of young black Kings & Queens".

BBC 6 Music

Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme has been explaining why his band enlisted the services of Mr Funky Horns himself, producer Mark Ronson on their new album.

They have already shared the single The Way You Used to Do, external from the album Villains, due out on 25 August.

The track is no Uptown Funk , externalbut there is definitely a swing in its step and Josh told 6 Music that it was Marks ability to straddle various genres that was exciting, that and the fact that he is a "music fan".

The singer's Raising Malawi charity has funded the new centre, which is named after her adopted daughter, Mercy James.

Madge adopted two Malawian twin sisters; Esther and Stella Mwale in February, who join her adopted kids David and Mercy.

Madge, who has two biological children named Lourdes and Rocco as well, said: "There are so many things I never imagined that I would do in my life.

"I never imagined I would be building a paediatric hospital."

Big congrats to Paul Weller after his wife gave birth to their baby daughter at the weekend.

That's number eight for Paul.

A statement on his website said: "The Weller family are proud to announce the birth of baby Nova, who was born at home on Saturday evening.

"She was caught by her daddy after a long and beautiful unassisted labour.

"Hannah and Nova are doing really well and everyone is enjoying getting to know little Miss Weller".

Who doesn't love a baby story? Also timely as Paul joked he and Mrs W were "hoping for a summer release" when he spoke to us earlier this year.

He was speaking to us ahead of the release of his latest album, on which track two is called...

Ed Balls' favourites are back with a brand new music video.

Know No Better - featuring Camila Cabello, Travis Scott and, of course Quavo - follows a young lad with nothing but dreams of bigger things in his head and canned heat in his heels.

Ariana Grande has been made an honorary citizen of Manchester as a thank you from the city for the way she responded to the arena attack in May.

The city council passed the motion unanimously at a special meeting.

The singer was praised for returning to stage the One Love Manchester concert less than two weeks after the attack on her arena gig, which killed 22 people.

Manchester City Council leader Sir Richard Leese said it would have been understandable if she hadn't returned.

"But no - instead she, as an artist, a performer, was determined that she would not perform again until she had returned to Manchester to perform," he said.

He added: "And that's why I propose that Ariana Grande is made the first honorary citizen of the city of Manchester."

We teased this performance yesterday and now you can watch Haim's cover of Selena Gomez's Bad Liar in full, complete with improvised household percussion.

BBC Radio 5 live

On yesterday's MNL, we shared with you the news Psy's Gangnam Style was the most viewed video no longer, having been overtaken by See You Again, external, featuring Charlie Puth and Wiz Khalifa.

Now the song's co-writer has revealed he cried when he wrote the song, dedicated to a close friend who died and also late Fast and Furious film franchise actor Paul Walker.

It's now been streamed almost 2.9 billion times.

Justin told 5 live's Phil Williams: "I made music for the club and radio but I also made music that mattered".

Now if you joined us for Monday's MNL, you'll be aware of the rather embarrassing pickle the Irish Herald found itself in after the newspaper printed a picture of grime star Stormzy on its back page instead of Manchester United's new striker Romelu Lukaku.

Now British runner, Olympic gold medallist and knight of the realm Sir Mo Farah has published a similar gaffe.

He clearly enjoyed his night at Twickenham at the weekend watching U2.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds are providing the support for the Joshua Tree 30th anniversary tour and Mo stopped to have his picture taken with Noel, before posting it on Instagram via the following Twitter caption:

Did you spot the (not-so) deliberate mistake?

Wrong Oasis brother Mo. Oopsie.

The long distance-running legend didn't make the same mistake twice though and tagged Noel correctly in Instagram.

Liam, who famously does not get along with brother Noel (nor does he seem to care for U2 much either) saw the funny side however.

He Tweeted: "Good to see u2 mo..."

Give yourself a round of applause Noel...

...we mean Liam.

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has given perhaps his most eloquent and direct response yet regarding the band's controversial forthcoming gig in Israel next week.

The band will perform in Tel Aviv next Wednesday (19 July) but have been asked to cancel the gig by Artists For Palestine UK, who are calling for a cultural boycott of the country.

Artists for Palestine includes high profile figures such as Pink Floyd's Roger Waters and film director Ken Loach

Loach yesterday tweeted Yorke directly, declaring that the band "need to decide if they stand with the oppressed or the oppressor".

"The choice is simple" he added.

Yorke however clearly views the situation differently and was heard to repeatedly mutter "some people" after seeing Palestine flags waved in his band's direction at their TRNSMT headline set on Friday in Glasgow.

After previously noting (via Rolling Stone) that bandmate Jonny Greenwood "has both Palestinian and Israeli friends and a wife who's an Arab Jew,", the OK Computer singer has now responded directly to the I, Daniel Blake director's comments, saying: "Playing in a country isn't the same as endorsing its government".

Yorke goes on to state his belief that "music, art and academia is about crossing borders not building them..."

Whilst the gig will be done and dusted in just over a week's time, this debate is bound to run and run.

Just how much is the threat of copyright legal action affecting modern musicians.

Well, according to some industry insiders, artists are being advised not to state publicly who they're inspired by on their new music.

It follows on from the high-profile copyright infringement case in which US jurors ruled that Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams' Blurred Lines had copied Marvin Gaye's Got To Give It Up.

The Gaye family estate was awarded $7.3m (£4.8m) in damages.

Pharell and Robin are appealing against the ruling but its impact has had wide-reaching effects.
