Beth sets your Saturday in motion with an ever eclectic mix of music!

Beth sets your Saturday in motion with an ever eclectic mix of music: Solange to Supertramp, Liquid Liquid to Lil Mama! She hears from one listener who has Beth, as a mermaid, tattooed on their arm. She also reminisces on a 2007 cover shoot she did for NME, snapped in her birthday suit…

Elsewhere in the show, the Caffeine Kick comes with music from p-rallel, Freak Nasty and a first-ever listener request. The Matter of Life and Beth this week takes us back to 1985, with a charity single performed by a ‘supergroup’ of over 45 superstar artists… Any guesses?

If you would like to get in touch or request tracks for the Caffeine Kick, you can reach out at bethditto@bbc.co.uk.
