Unstoppable Billie Eilish, Karaoke Perfection and the Barbie Soundtrack

Was the success of the Barbie album a one-off or the new way of making soundtracks?

This Barbie won an Oscar – from Billie Eilish to Ryan Gosling, was the success of the Barbie album a one-off or the new way of making soundtracks? Elsewhere, Madonna has the perfect recipe to send fans into a frenzy and Elton John tours with cardboard cutouts of his family. Plus, how a smoke machine, choreography, a hydraulic stage (and saké) elevated Grimmy’s greatest ever karaoke performance.

Sidetracked is all about taking a look at the things Annie Macmanus and Nick Grimshaw have loved (and perhaps more importantly not loved) from the world of music. A week in music, a week in Annie and Nick’s lives, this is the destination for music and pop culture lovers looking for an authentic and light-hearted take on the week’s most compelling stories… getting seriously sidetracked along the way.

Get in touch with Annie and Nick! If you’re over 16 WhatsApp 079700 82700 or email sidetracked@bbc.co.uk

Sidetracked is a Â鶹Éç Audio Production for Â鶹Éç Sounds – new episodes drop every Thursday.
