Gary Davies sits in

Global pop icon Anastacia shares her 10 song musical journey on this week's Tracks of My Years. Plus more music quizzing on Ten To The Top.

Global pop icon Anastacia shares her musical journey through ten of her most influential and favourite songs in this week's Tracks of My Years.

Anastacia started her claim to fame as a finalist on MTV's talent show 'The Cut' in 1998. She signed with Daylight Records just a year later and released her debut album, 'Not That Kind', in June 2000.

She's now released eight studio albums - the most recent was 'Our Songs' in 2023 - and her self-titled album, which included the massive hit 'Left Outside Alone' that reached the top of the UK Album Charts in 2004.

She'll be touring the UK in April and May with her ‘Not That Kind’ tour to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album of the same name, including dates at the London Palladium, the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow, Manchester’s O2 Apollo and more.

Plus the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top, a trip in to the ѿý Archive with Vernon's Vault, and the Record and Album Of The Week.

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
