Jo chats to Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man about his new album 鈥楲ife By Misadventure鈥�, which is out on April 23rd. His latest single 鈥楢ll You Ever Wanted鈥� is her Infatuation this week.

Rag鈥榥鈥橞one Man returns three years after his ground breaking, award winning debut, 鈥楬uman鈥�, which was a phenomenal success; a 4x platinum album which shot to #1 week of release in the UK, became the fastest-selling album by a male artist for the entire decade and earned him x 3 BRIT awards and Ivor Novello Awards. The album has since been streamed more than 5 Billion times, sold 4.2M copies and charted number one in 6 countries, whilst the single 鈥楬uman鈥� has now sold more than 10M copies.

Plus this week鈥檚 Thursday Theme is rumours, as a nod to the anniversary of the release of Fleetwood Mac鈥檚 鈥楻umours鈥�. It was released on this day in 1977 and went on to become one of the best-selling albums of all time. Send all your song suggestions related to rumours to jo.whiley@bbc.co.uk
