The Life of Riley goes back to a phrase that was used in the Irish-American community before 1911, but we're not going back that far. We're interested in great songs with the word Life in the title for this week's Music Machine on Team-FM, Saturday at 7 PM UK time which is 2 PM Eastern. Ronan Keating thought life was a rollercoaster, but which songs can you think of with the word Life in the title?

Hi everyone

If you would like to, please join me for the Music Machine on Saturday at 7 PM UK time which is 2 PM on the East Coast of America.

Remember the fun, madness and mayhem Brian and Lulu had on air with the weekly Sunday night show Down for Double? Well, it's back for one night only, tomorrow, Friday, at 7 PM UK time, 2 PM Eastern. Brian D is not able to be on air this weekend, so Brian and Lulu have been let loose with music from the 70's and 80's, presented in their own special way!

Hi everyone

I hope you can join me on Saturday at 7 PM UK time, which is 2 PM US Eastern, for the Music Machine on Team-FM! www.team-fm.com.

This week's theme is songs with girls names in the titles. It's been several years since I ran this theme, so I think we can safely do it again. In fact, the last time I did so, a certain Mrs Hartgen severely reprimanded me for playing a remake of a Frank Sinatra record.

Hi everyone

Please join me on Team-FM for the Music Machine, Saturday at 7 PM UK time which is back to being 2 PM US Eastern.

Jennifer Lopez was waiting for it, the Mavericks wanted to dance away with it, and E L O thought it was sweet. We're talking about the night, and that's our theme for this week. Can you think of any songs about the night, or with night, or tonight in the title? Do let me know!

Hi everyone

Please join me on Saturday at 7 PM UK time, which this week is 3 PM Eastern, for the Music Machine.

This week, our theme is all about numbers. New Music were "Living By Numbers", and Alphabeat sang about "10,000 Nights of Thunder". But which songs can you think of with numbers in the title? You can also take the theme in other directions. For example, why not choose Bobby Darrin with Multiplication?
Your suggestions would be great to receive, we've had some good ones during the past few weeks.

The New Look Weekend on Team-FM!

The Team-FM weekend is all about giving you the best. The best entertainment, the best educational music documentaries, the best personalities and, of course, the very best music! As we're always looking for ways to improve, we're about to make the best even better.

Starting this weekend, we'll be bringing you a brand new show and welcoming an old favorite back to The Team. In addition, we're moving one of our shows to a time slot where more people will have the chance to enjoy its great feel good vibe.

Hi everyone

Team-FM's official time zone observes the UK and Ireland. If you live in the US, Team-FM shows will begin tomorrow one hour later. For example, the Evolution of Rock begins at 11 AM rather than 10 AM, and so on. In the words of Cass Elliot, the US are moving a little closer to us!

While writing, just to let you know we have two new shows starting next week. So as of Monday, do check our schedule to find out when they are on!

Have a wonderful weekend.

All at Team-FM.

Hi everyone

I hope you can join me for the Music Machine this coming Saturday at 7 PM UK time as ever, which is 2 PM US Eastern, on the station where great music matters!

This time our theme is all about circles. There. You have a song title right away. Circles was by the New Seekers in 1972, but what other songs are there about round objects, or being around? Kylie Minogue had the right idea as she was Spinning Around, but what can you think of? Belinda Carlisle with Circle in the Sand maybe?

Hi everyone

Let me give you some good advice, ala Alan Sherman. Tune into the Music Machine, Saturday at 7 PM UK time that's 2 PM US Eastern, for some good songs! And I really mean that. We play good music on Team-FM, and that's exactly what I intend to do. Our theme is songs with the word "good" in the title. I came across over 3000 of these, and when I selected a few, I have a great selection to play you spanning the decades!
