Oxford City, Saturday 14th December 2024 - Steve & Carol Charlton (in memory of James Charlton)

Some of you may remember when James was let loose on the PA at Heritage Park with his distinctive choice of music!

In memory of James, we have put together this playlist with the help of some of his friends:
 
PLAYLIST
 
  • Rick Astley - Never Going to Give You Up

This must be the first on the list and was played by James at HP before Astley became famous again!

  • Sunstroke Project & Olia Tira - Run Away

Chosen by Alex Kilcran: ''James absolutely adored this Eurovision song from Moldova!''

  • Taylor Swift - Shake It Off

Chosen by Charlotte Parker: ''This song always reminds me of him and makes me smile''.

  • Neil Diamond - Sweet Caroline

Chosen by Cameron.

  • Gala - Freed From Desire

  • The Ronettes - Be My Baby

A family favourite. We went to a Ronnie Spector gig with James in 2019.

  • Pulp - Common People

This is from the number one album when James was born in 1995.

  • The Beautiful South - 36D

Another family choice. James used to sing this very loudly!

  • The Beatles - Let It Be

Anything from the Beatles would be good, but this seems appropriate; memories of James singing ''letter B'' when he was very young.

  • Rick Astley - Never Going To Give You Up

Can't play this one too many times!
