Friendship theme for Mental Health Month October 2014

Tonight on A Mixed Bag with Chris B on 93.7 Edge FM in the Bega Valley, our theme was "friendship" and the importance of friendship to one's mental health.  The theme for Mental Health Month is Be Younique so there a few songs about self acceptance thrown into the mix.

Songs included in the playlist tonight were:-

  • You've got a friend in me - Randy Newman
  • You've got a friend - James Taylor
  • Thank you for being a friend - Andrew Gold
  • I'll be there for you (theme from the TV show "Friends" by the Rembrants)
  • Lean on me - Bill Withers
  • You're my best friend - Queen
  • That's what friends are for - Dione Warwick and friends
